Darkside (the drummer in Mgła) is one of the best drummers in Black Metal scene. His work in Kriegmaschine is a masterpiece
man... Kriegsmaschine is really a masterpiece, residual blight give me the chills
Hes good for what hes doing here and in Kriegsmaschine.
Kriegsmaschine is one of the finest Black Metal outfits I've ever stumbled upon.
@@-Zer0Dark- best drummer in my opinion is Eloy Casagrande. He is seek... Others just smoking in the corner
Same band more nihilism
About "what makes this sounds?" You need to watch drumcam video of this sound to find out, and when you do i promise your jaw will be on the floor.
yes that would be awesome!
To actually answer the man's question: the sounds are the drummer's ride cymbals.
@@grimecube and a splash
@@RevelationNone Actually just rides. In the studio he used 2 separate ride cymbals. Live he uses a bell to avoid having to take with him two rides.
@@RevelationNone and the barbwire...
Mgla has a way with lyrics that you won't often find.
Indeed. That level of poetry beats many musicians and bands of all genres.
100%
Also are they pronounced "migwa" or have I made that up
@@lt8400 I thing is “Gla”
@@DarkSide.666 It's pronounced "Mgwa" and it means mist / fog in Polish.
@@iflayedmyfaceagain3330yeah agreed. My favorite lyrics have to go to Rammstein though. But you have to be german…
"i bet this song would be so fun to play on the drums"
oh you naive fool
So true.....
"I bet it would be so fun to be able to play this on the drums".
"Able" is the key word.
That's apart from acknowledging if it is hard to play or not, he just meant "fun".
In this case, you can say it would be fun once you're able.
And yes, I'm aware that he's not completely aware of the magnitude of complexity of the drums, but if he was, he would probably still think the same to an extent.
Because it is a different thing acknowledging when something is hard or fun to play.
And he probably meant the ride part when he said that anyway, which is relatively easy to play.
In which case, this would become irrelevant.
@@Benazgul Actually the truest comment I remember ever reading on youtube.
this is one of the best songs of all time period.
and the best is eof VI.
This is the best song of all times. Raw and beatiful.
Finally some black metal for you mate!
i am still waiting for some Dark funeral,Mayhem..... :( also i think that exercises in futility vi is better from musical/lyrical perspective.I do love the whole album tho.Mgla are unique band.
@@KORNBG really hope he get's around to do Windir when the W is up.
@@jw7500 for V, he can always do... Vegan Black Metal Chef. Heil Seitan ! :p
I absolutely agree with the finally! about time
Now that it finally happened we should push for more BM, something not too harsh like Ulver -Capitel V, Peste Noire - Dueil Angoisseus or Satyricon - Phoenix, and there you have it three beautiful songs to lure him deeper into the genre, but to be honest I'll be happy if he enjoys anything black metal, really a hard to love genre
The drummer for this band is next level. There's a "drum cam" video of this song being performed at a show. The dude's an animal
Check out Panzerfaust's Suns Of Perdition albums (1 & 2) for more next level drumming in black metal. It's similar but different to Apocalypticists
@@matthewgodding777 Panzerfaust are amazing! Great shows too!
@@matthewgodding777 thanks for the rec. I shall check em out
Darkside is an amazing drummer. Watching him play this song is so impressive
He wont do it and for that reason he will miss out on what makes this as good as it is
God damn, he really hears Mgła. Miracles happen.
Holy crap, im watching MGŁA reaction! Is this even real?
Soldout! No Black Metal anymore! [/irony]
he should have done reaction for the live drummer version of this song
@@TheMik29 How did they sold out ? They have cheapest merch , cheapest gig tickets, no promotions, no promoters, no video clips. How did they sold out ? Explain me that.
@@ccenty Haha dude, relax. It was a joke because Black Metal bands normaly don't get reaction videos. That's why I marked it with [irony].
But I forgot that some guys in the scene don't get along with humour.
@@TheMik29 Ok, sorry I get this wrong way. I thought you meant, ironic is that Mgła "should out" . Success does not mean that someone sold out, ofcourse.
I love that you're newer to the whole metal thing but can already feel the emotion of black metal. The way those guitars speak is just incredible.
Black Metal is embodiment of nature and beauty in music.
Of emotion and solitude.
Empty yet full.
I assume that alex isn't very much into black metal... the fact, that he had so much fun listening to this track regardless of its genre, speaks for a good taste in music.
i just think he doesnt know much about it. if someone shows him some good shit he probably would dig it alot. Back in one of his old videos with with that idiot from metal injection told him to respond or w/e, he really liked Gorgoroth/God Seed
This is classic Black Metal with a very modern approach. Excellent production, deep melodic passages, very technical, direct, clean and an amazing taste for wall-of-sound-type composition. And the drummer, oh my god, the drummer.
This is trve kvlt Black Metal.
Mgla are almost upto the level of Bathory and Dark Funeral in terms of respect.
Black Metal is one the best things that ever happened to my life along with discovering Metal as a whole. Pure fckin awesome.
If you like this I'd suggest Panegyrist Ophidian Crucifix (or actually, their whole album)
Doesn't have the classic black metal vocal though. Closer to the death metal vocal this.
@@QazwerDave yeah kinda different too cause most death metal screams sound raw but this one is kinda deliberately processed this way
Mgła is the best polish black metal band dude. Check out their last album “Age of excuse”
In a country that has no shortage of great black metal bands, btw. Actually, I feel that black metal is too narrow a genre designation to put them into.
Mgła is the best black metal band. And yes, they're from Poland.
@Rage Batushka as well
graveland and old behemoth are pretty decent too
@@mihaimarsch8813 Batushka is actually my favorite from Poland
Now you get it :) Yes. Now you get it. Hellcome to the family.
YES HE HEARD US!!!!
I was so happy to see that you actually reacted to MGLA
Also, FINALLY some black metal!
I cannot recommend enough listening to the Exercises In Futility album in full. Mgła are one of those bands where their songs aren’t made to be listened to in isolation. To get the full experience, you need to hear the whole album
Watch the drum cam version of this song. You’ll see what’s making that noise
I've seen these boys live. Sick energy. Awesome band.
Black metal, and not the easiest black metal to listen to. I loved it, these guys are masters of their craft and their lyrics are just... man...
I'm so glad for you that you managed to broaden your horzions to include these works of art and expression!
Black Metal is absolute awesome.
MGLA THE BEST BLACK METAL BAND IN MILKY WAY MORE REACTION!!
this is one of those bands where you just close your eyes and let the repetition of the hypnotic riffs overwhelm you. Pure Darkness.
Fuck I love Black Metal \m/
I find my self listening this song for hours while working in the computer
I explore very similar emotions like you @Dean Bartolo while listening to Mgła and their albums.
Greetings from Germany
Thank you for giving Mgła exposure, they're incredible, they were also the band which opened my eyes to black metal
We need here more polish bands!!!!! 🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱
BATUSHKA!! 🤘
Vader, Furia, Morowe
Arkona and Manbryne.Check this. Hell yeah🤘
It's "Mgła" - that means "the mist" in polish. You should pronounce it like mgwa ("ł" - we pronunce that letter similar to yours "w").
I always thought it was pronounced "мъгла"
Same in russian but you pronounce it the way you see it
Actually "mgła" exactly means "fog"
In russian it means haze
@@Radq124PL fog and mist are about the same thing, for all intents and purposes
Glad you finally reacted to MGLA Alex. I know you would absolutely love Windir. Both are amazing bands in their own right.
Mgła is easily one of my favourite black metal bands, they're so good
Great to see you reacting to some more Black Metal man! The atmosphere of this song is fucking amazing!
Black Metal is pure fcking amazing.
Maaaaan, that’s finally happened. Congratulations, you’ve just dived into this pandora ocean of nihilism. I’ve seen them live once and this was fkn awesome, they sound exactly like on the recording. You should definitely listen to the whole album!
Out of curiosity what are black metal gigs like? I was thinking of seeing them back in May but I don't know what it would be like.
Mgla is such an awesome band, one of my favorite black metal bands.
Do Nile for N, great tech death band.
Mgla are one of my favourite bands of all time.So poetic,dark and beautiful.
Thumbs up for Nile!
Nile would be a great choice! Sarcophagus or lashed to the slave stick.
Other choices:
Nevermore- this godless endeavor
Necrophobic- the nocturnal silence
@@AgainstTheeWickedlyMusic Nile is my favourite Death Metal band next to Death.
@@euronymous235 Respect 🤘 Death is my number one as well, and Nile is definitely in my top 5!
For "N" : Necrophagist - Epitaph
Nah i would do diminished to b
@@carlosvonbismarck1217 Or fermented offal discharge - for the solo and the spectacular title :)
@@yarpenzirgin Absolute banger of a song. Advanced corpse tumor is also amazing
@@carlosvonbismarck1217 They were ahead of their times, for sure.
[O] - Orbit Culture - The Shadowing
Darkside is among the best Drummers out there, regardless of genre. He's Danny Carey level
best black metal band of our times!
the way alexs face goes from happy to horrified to surprised to happy and so on its the best part of the vid
Never thought I would see Mgla on this channel lmao, pretty cool indeed. For "S" you should really check out Shylmagoghnar, ambient melodeath at its best
One of the finest dutch melodeath there is!
Or Schammasch - Metanoia
Black black, yessssssssssssss. Such a talented band!!! Młga is here to take your soul....
Oh i see you are a man of culture as well!
Thank you for this, one of my top favourite bands of all time!
Now you need to do the entire album LOL
If you watch a drum cam video of this you'll see where all the sounds are coming from. The drummer is unique and crazy talented.
Orbit Culture- the Shadowing!
One of the best reaction vids ever, so genuine and so awesome you discovered and appreciate the beauty of MGLA
You need to watch the drum cam vid for this song
this
the drummer isn't human
Nile- Enduring the eternal molestation of flame
Nile - Annihilation of the wicked
Cast down the heretic
Holy shit Alex you just made my Sunday, thank you!
I didn't think I'll ever see Mgla on this channel...
It really brings a smile on my face when people that haven't heard of Mgla instanTly enjoy their work
Black Metal and Mgla are pure fckin awesome.
Wooooow!! Your reaction was so priceless. Im so glad that you've listened to them. Through out this whole reaction i had smile on my face, because i really liked your impression on them and just your whole atitiude towards the song, and ofc the song makes me happy. So Alex, you just opened your mind for them and I really appreciate that :)
I Love this song and whole band for real. Every album is a fucking musical masterpiece. I just really appreciate this band so much. Just amazing shit! I hope that Im gonna be at least once on their concert.
Im gonna recommend u checking out more of their stuff. Maybe something from their new album called "Age of Excuse".
My favourite disney movie is propably "Lilo & Stitch" from 2002. But if we talk about older movies, I think its gonna be "Mulan".
Mgla and Black Metal reign all!!!!
Also my favourite Disney movie is also Mulan(the true Mulan,not the shite live action)
you had to choose the drum cam video of this song drummer is mind blowing
Love watching your journey through metal! FINALLY you've found MGLA. I'd recommend just listening to this album from front to back, incredible is so many ways
My favourite band and I was jamming out with you the same time headbanging!!!
O needs to be Orbit Culture. "Open Eye" or "Saw" are great introduction tracks.
Anything by Orbit Culture would fuckin rule 🤘🤘🤘
Yes
Open Eye or North Star of Nija
Nija by far the best album of 2020.
Last year,
plenty of good music came out.
Rock, metal, punk... but F me.... Nija blows the competition out of the water...
No joke.
@@StoopidSnot For me Nija & Wolfheart's Wolves of Karelia
Nevermore. NEVERMORE, NEVERMORE, NEVERMORE! Believe in Nothing (#1 choice), The River Dragon Has Come, The Heat Collector, The Termination Proclamation ... ANY Nevermore!
First time hearing these. Hooked. Thanx Alex.
Damn I am really happy about this reaction!
Can't wait one day to see you do more Mgla and black metal in general ^^
you also, need to check out MOL - Bruma
for O - ORBIT CULTURE with Nensha
Orbit Culture definitely!
The north star of Nija is a must!
Would rather say he should react on the song Saw insteed.
Svartport
N: Nothingface - Braethe Out
O: Orbit Culture - North Star of Nija (Live In Studio) -----> Best band in Metal right now!
Man.. Its amazing to see you have come all the way to one of my favorite bands of all time Mgla/Kriegsmaschine since you just started reacting to metals years ago. This duo of M. and Darkside are amazing and i really hope you'll react to more stuff of Mgla/Kriegsmaschine, it would be a delight.
Oh shit the madman actually reacted to this! I'm so glad ❤ damn you got me jamming out to it again too! Man, if you watched the drum cam you would watch the tasty mastery of the drums. It's hypnotizing
Omg is that real ... man you need to check more mgla they ar perfect , try exercises in futility 1 , 2and 6 jut for the beginning , there is lot of perfect albums
Exercises in futility VI is a bloody masterpiece!
@@dmitrijcesniuk6898 VI is the peak of the album.
Something I love about this ABC's of Metal series is that I, too, find new bands and that's awesome. I've been a metalhead for more than 15 years and still find amazing stuff to go, and this channel has a part on that.
That's one of the reasons why I promised I will be resquesting Ouroboros - Edifice of Tyranny for the letter 'O', since it's a less known band that in my opinion desires a lot more of attention and this song is an amazing display of how technical and impressive they can be. (So come on, Alex! Don't give me up, don't let me down!)
The drummer (Darkside) used to be a xylophonist, hence the really impressive cymbal work, thanks for the reactions mate!
Bruh, I’m at work and I’m still watchin! Gotchu my dude!🤘🏻😎
Finally Mgła :D we need more of this awesome content!
Mgla's music is exceptional. 4 Albums plus a few EPs, all masterpieces. Excercises is their best one though imo. It's super fun to play on guitar- challenging but rewarding the same time.
With Hearts Towards None would be my favorite
I saw them in a live concert, back in 2020 in Chile. I did know the band. Their concert was astonishing, they gived me the chills by their performance.
HOWDY FROM NEW ENGLAND...I SAW A LIVE DRUM CAM OF DARKSIDE (THATS THE DRUMMERS NAME) AND HE SIMPLY SLAYE2S!!! THOSE SOUND BIG HEF IS THE DRUMMER USING DOUBLE RIDE CYMBALS....THIS REMINDS ME OF SEASONS IN THE ABYSS ERA SLAYER....ALEX CHECK OUT SOME OF THEIR LIVE SHIT...THX FOR TURNING PLL ONTO THIS BAND....HEF WATCH THE LIVE DRUM CAM OF THIS SONG AND YOU'LL TRULY UNDERSTAND HOW GOOD THE DRUMMER IS...PLEASE DO SO LIVE GOJIRA ACTION...ONCE YOU SEE THESE GUYS LIVE YOU REALLY APPRECIATE HOW TALENTED THEY ARE...PEACE FROM THE NORTHEAST...
[O] Orbit Culture : Northstar of Nija - live in studio
Fck yeah. Orbit Culture roxx
I'm up for some Open Eye myself.
Svartport
[ O ] - Orbit Culture - Nensha ❤️
Yea, definately check out the drum cam of this video. It's amazing
black metal is fucking amazing man... so poetic and so beautiful.
idk my favorite disney movie... it was the fox and the hound when i was a kid....
the sound you heard was the ride and the bell on the ride.
Mgla is pure awesome.
My favourite Disney movie is Alladin (the real one,not the shitty live action version )
THE VOCALS ARE SET BACK IN THE MIX TO GIVE THE THE SONG AN OVERALL MENACING QUALITY...THOSE NOISES UR HEAR IS THE DRUMMER DOING TO DIF PATTERNS ON 2 DIF RIDE CYMBALS...YES IM A DRUMMER
MgLa (Mgwah) are awesome !!
More Black Metal !!
Dude, this is one of the best reaction videos I've ever seen. M. is one of the greatest song writers of our time.
Duuuude Hell yeah! I've been waiting for some solid Black Metal to hit this channel. Give yah a dose of that fire 🔥🔥
N: Nothing More - Fade In/Fade Out
P: Porcupine Tree - Anesthetize live in Tilburg
🤘
Fade In/Fade Out is a great pick! I've been trying for more than a year to get him to react to more Nothing More
Tak, to ja jestem tym polskim komentarzem, którego szukasz.
rel
As others have said: WATCH THE DRUMCAM video of this song. You won't be disappointed.
I love the way you listen to the music. Like you take it in with your whole being ❤ Plus this is a powerful song coming from a great band. I had gooseumps listening to it for the first few times.
This is no interesting too see, in the last years, how someone came from normie entry level “Wow, Linkin Park is so cool! ” (and it is!!) to “Wow, let’s see, what this obscure Polish black metal band have to offer today!”
can you imagine gate keeping black metal
yikes
@@saksen3036 LMAO EZ, black metal is the most gate keeping genre IMO, Check out Batusha, there is gate keeping even in circles of one band, what "version" of the band is the real one :D
@@martinsskutans6646 that's not gatekeeping, one guy stole the band from the other.
N - Nekrogoblikon - No One Survives
WATCH that DRUMCAM video! Really, DO IT!
This band have SO many good tunes, and they're all equally as awesome. They're absolutely increidble at creating atmospehere
[ O.] : ORBIT CULTURE - Northstar Of Nija live Studio
really good song and band
Seien sie gegrüßt Kamerad mit guten Musik Geschmack
N - Nekrogoblikon - We Need A Gimmick
O - Orbit Culture - The Shadowing
:)
Love this reaction you got a subscriber
Drum cam for this song is a must from you, it will really give you a real sense on those cymbals men, is just amazing
Oooooo should so be ORBIT CULTURE! NORTH STAR OF NIJA IN STUDIO! sorry for screaming, just got excited!
Septic Flesh for S - Portrait of a Headless Man
This is the best reaction i ever saw, to anything.
You are feeling it man!
So glad you liked this song! Indeed this is a true masterpiece!!
Should’ve watched the drum cam video so you could see the amazingness of the drummer!!
Naglfar - Spoken Words of Venom
Wow. Shocked this M request came thru. Respect
My favourite band. Never knew you would react to them.
I'm defenitely checking out more from these guys. Awesome groove!
[O]rbit Culture - [O]pen Eye
If you like this
A) Listen to their whole discography
B) Check out Drudkh - Blood in Our Wells
You need to react to whole album
Mgła is polish band you pronouce 'MGWA'
Definitely check out the drumcam, It's probably my favourite drum playthrough, and believe me I've watched A LOT
Oh shit I'm so glad you did it!!! Didn't watch it yet, but I'm sure it's absolutely amazing!!!!
N : Nargaroth - seven tears are flowing to the river
Yes please
Hell yeah
YES PLS
Yeah
Yes, react to this
4:44 check the same song on UA-cam but with drumcam from Darkside, and you'll understand what is it 😎 "blessed be the cymbal"
He said it all. The best feature of a vocalist is to know when to shut the fuck up and let the instruments do what they do best.
That was my reaction first time I heard it too, it's a journey
