Ok I have watched a lot of your videos now and wanna share a thought: It's a shame you call yourself TruantReacts because you do a lot more than just react. "React-channels" have a bad rep on youtube and I think you are doing more than just reacting. You give your opinions, you talk about the artists and band and discuss the sound and video with good references to other bands and also you care a lot about your viewers (in a real way). You are doing great work and some of us really appreciate what you are doing. Keep it up man!
Hauntel He is the only reaction to music channel that I subbed. Not only because of his reactions lol, but like you said he talks his mind about it. It's like he bought a ticket to see the show with you, me, and everyone else that is watching his videos and we are at the show together.
Truant and Lost in Vegas are definitely the best "reaction" channels on UA-cam because of exactly that, you don't just sit and stare at the video while nodding your head and saying "wow" every 90 seconds like pretty much every other channel. You guys actually react as it happens and talk about what you're seeing and hearing throughout the video
I have to tell you since discovering your Channel and watching The Joy on your face discovering music and enjoying it for what it is instead of criticizing and analyzing is a breath of fresh air to me and this is my first time hearing this band and I feel like we were hanging out listening to it cuz I had the same reaction as you keep the awesome videos coming dude
Great commentary as always dude, never heard of Dimitri or Shokran myself so definitely need to check them out further. I have a recommendation: check out “Ghost in the machine” by Australian band Void of Vision. Great heavy guitars and harsh vocals with a great chorus hook - similar to Architects and Northlane. Awesome video as well. All the best!
As Blood Runs Black - My Fears Have Become Phobias As I Lay Dying - Through Struggle Erra - Alpha Seed Silent Planet - Native Blood Dissimulator - Like Father, Like Son Burn After Me - Revive the Lights Arch Enemy - Taking Back my Soul Texas in July - Hook, Line and Sinner
As a guitarist myself i love these videoes, you MUST watch a guitar playthrough of Jeff Loomis, he plays in Arch Enemy right now, but he have made some incredible solo work check out the video for Jato Unit - live at EMGtv!
I stumbled upon these guys when Supreme Truth dropped. To be honest, so much metal nowadays is fingery guitar wank that has little feeling in the songs. These guys, Dmitry, man... Fuck me. That egypt vibe is legit. You feel it. And the groove, god the grooves. Those stops, those triplets/quads... They don't lose the song in the technique. And the vocals on other tracks - great clean and growls. Just, man...
TheHenry Maneuver Demitri alone makes Within The Ruins look trash and I love the fuck out of that band lmao. He literally does everything they do but better.
Hey man! My most favorite band is Lamb of God and I'd love to see a reaction from you on their song "512"! It has 1 other guy that has a "meh" review on it and I'd love to see you do a Lamb of God reaction!
Threat Signal - Comatose Aeons of Corruption - Unholy Dagoba - Inner Sun Breakdown of Sanity - Infest Miss May I - Forgive and Forget , Turn back the Time
VARIALS - Anything to Numb Last Ten Seconds of Life - Warpath NAILS -You Will Never Be One Of Us Lorna Shore - Godmaker Steel Panther - Gloryhole PRISON - Wear Your Skin (No Video) Also check out Slice the Cakes Odyssey to the West album, its a fucking experience the whole way through
Never heard of Shokran before but damn, it sounds like he took a lot of inspiration from Within The Ruins, with the whole start-stop-riffing, Egyptian leads and stutters. Still cool tho.
Not sure if you've heard of Shades of Black yet. Simply amazing instrumental work. I recommend either "To Colosus" or "The Scorpion King." Shades of Black also has that really unique Egyptian-esque vibe to it.
Hey haven’t been able to watch a video in a while glad to be back for such a good one!!!! Hope you can check out Tonight We Ride by Unleash the Archers :)
DUDE plz.. Nasty - Shokka or At War With Love Aversions Crown - The Glass Sentient or Ophiophagy LANDMARKS - Empty Places TRC - We Bring War or 10000 Fingers
you should react to "Allegaeon - Proponent of sentience III" there you will have something for your ears ;) these guys just deserve the features, working hard as eff for their shit
Not Me Exodus blows Supreme Truth out of the water every day. I listened to supreme truth non stop for a year. Then Exodus came out and I can't go back to supreme truth the way I did in the past. They have amazing tracks on that album, but in terms of overall evolution and sound, etc, Exodus is way better. Better vocals too imo.

Yeah, I’ve tried watching other reacts videos. @truantreacts is in another class all to himself. Real deal.
I've met the guy in Manchester before the Jinjer concert Wednesday and I can confirm he's as natural as he is in his videos. Keep it up brother!

Artificial Language - Unself Portrait
Means End - Nox Aurumque
