    @8:40 Yes my son?!? Brittney "Slays" Hayes broke the mold & left it in rubble when she was created.. I TOLD my father the lot of you weren't ready for her.. But he didn't listen.. Faces, brains & whole men have been turned to puddles of goo listening to her voice.. She was given the voice of an Angel, the spirit of a Valkyrie & drive of a Viking.. No one can stop her.. Brittney is *ETERNAL* !!

    I just actually got into this band, thanks to you. I love them, and I get such a Rob Halford/Bruce Dickinson vibe from Brittany. The band, as a whole and from my small sample size, gives me a strong Iron Maiden vibe, from the galloping bass and drums, to the excellent harmonizing on the guitars.

The bands behind them all have had training as well. You my friend are now listening to vocalist & musicians dedicated to their craft that have worked their butts off to do what they do. I'm not saying there aren't good singers & players out there but when you raise the bar to vocalist & musicians well it's just a whole new level.

    Having said this, and in the words of a few certain englishmen, "and now for something completely diferent", write this down, Ningen Isu, a japanese band composed by 3 fifty year old something dudes, that have been rocking out in Japan for 30 years.
    You gonna love them, they're quite something, and I'de sugest Ningen Isu - Heartless Scat, wich is the song that started to make them known outside of Japan's little bubble, or to see them live, Ningen Isu-Namahage, wich is quite amazing!

    I love around 7:30 I'm transported into an insane side-scrolling boss battle from a 90's video game...

    About the video editing ... Pretty sure they filmed in 4K and then did a 1080 pan to track the bassists hand. Makes for a very cool effect.

      To me it seems they specifically tracked the second knuckle on his ring finger. It stays in the center of the screen. Just an AWESOME visual!

    I’m late to the party here and you probably already know this but this whole album (Apex) is a concept album and a really great story!
