What higher compiment can be paid than -
"Professor Hindson commented: "I will be presenting 'And Plague Flowers The Kaleidoscope' to the composition students at the Conservatorium next semester as an exemplar in structure, mixing timbres, meters, modes, how to approach virtuosity, sound and noise, extended performance and techniques. The students will need to study 2 technical aspects of what Ne Obliviscaris have done in their music, and then use these techniques in their own classical music compositions."
"It is my pleasure to introduce such high quality music making to our students, alongside other music by composers including Beethoven, Gershwin, Steve Reich and Peter Sculthorpe. Musicians deserve to hear the music of Ne Obliviscaris, and the music of many other metal bands, in order to appreciate the compositional complexity that lies within it, no matter what their musical tastes."
From a Professor at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music....
Clan Campbell lives in Australia once more.
Based Bruce virtuosos.
If the drummer could just chill on the swivel heel and not make the rest of us look bad, that would be cool.
Dan Presland is a monster. he has his own channel where he does just the drum run throughs of NeO songs. also if memory serves this was the last song of their set.
amazing drummer. He does use triggers on his bass drums. still cool though
@@loraynevenne6829 nah bro, the dude has a video on his youtube channel doing double kicks at 210 bpm for 10 minutes straight
funny thing is to the speed he's playing, he swivels so little compared to other drummers its odd how he keeps it that way (I also learnt without swivel but nowhere near as fast as him)
3:03 Tank: “What am I about to get hit with?”
Me: *rubs hands*
Hahahahaha
@@TankTheTech I don't see any comment about this, and I really think it's worth mentioning... this song "And Plague Flowers The Kaleidoscope" was included in a teaching curriculum at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music, one of Australia's most prestigious classical Conservatories. The song will undergo a compositional analysis by Professor Matthew Hindson, Chair of Composition at the Conservatorium.

By the way, this song structure is so unique it's part of an university class of musical theory
That's so awesome.
Hey tank, you should do Forget not, also from Ne Obliviscaris. And by any chance could you get Chase to react to this band too? Thanks!
I told Chase to NOT watch my video because I wanted him to do his own breakdown.
@@TankTheTech Nice!
@@TankTheTech That is great. I realy want to see Chase reaction.
@@TankTheTech ...you rule. :D
Forget Not is my favorite song by them.
I think you'd really enjoy "The Bee" by Amorphis.
Definitely! The official lyric video!
Told him about this one WEEKS ago
Omg, tank could do anything that Amorphis have ever done and would be happy with it, amazing band
If you did Ne Obliviscaris, you gotta do one of their stylistic influences, and a name you probably know well - Opeth! Ghost of Perdition or Deliverance!
I'm sure it's mentioned below, but the drummer - Dan Presland - has an incredible UA-cam channel where he has many many full song studio play throughs. As a guitarist (who always watched the drummer) they're awesome
At first I thought the screaming vocalist looked/sounded really out-of-place in the band, but the combination of sort of prog/fusion mixed with harsh vocals really works.
I am not the biggest fan of harsh vocals but NeO has a way to blend Xenoyr's vocals into their music that you can barely notice it standing out, it just becomes sort of an instrument. They are really clever at this, specially using the contrast of Tim's cleans or the violin. Amazing work by these guys indeed.
It's honestly something that i love about the video, everyone just looking like the most average peeps and then there is Xenoyr looking like a depressed goth... It seems out of place the first place but it's really just a perfect fit and brings balance somehow
You're just a true talent in front of the camera. Everything is just natural and you're easy to watch. 100k subs easy around the corner 💪🏻 PS. Loving the info boxes you provide now and then 😊
Saw them on this tour and it’s criminal they were opening. I would’ve traded butcher babies whole set for one more song from them. Absolutely incredible performance.
You should check out The Day That The World Breaks Down by Ayreon. The composer invites the best singers and different musicians from several different bands to perform in his albums.
Yes Anette, GOOD call!
Still crossing my fingers for Skalmold - Hel (or Skalmold - Kvadning) live with the orchestra, but in the meantime, this is one hell of a song, and such a journey !
Yessss, HEL please! :)))
My heart literally rises to my throat and I get overwhelmed with emotion every time I hear this song. It can only be listened to properly loudly. An absolute beautiful piece of musicianship.
I live in Melbourne, and somehow never heard of NeO until I stumbled across a reaction on UA-cam. They are so good. I'm definitely going to ahve to see them live once live events start happening again.
Melbourne's scene is fucking amazing. Should check my friend Emily out, her project Suldusk
Fun fact: Xenoyr writes all the lyrics and creates all artwork, from logo to cover art work, album sleeves, stage backdrops and tshirts.
He is also in a side project calle Omega Infinity which is very different (they call it void metal) and performed for the Australian doom metal band Ligeia Wept. Go check them out, too!
I hadn't heard these guys before and decided to watch because I like your channel and man am I glad I did. That was amazing af
Awesome! Glad We could both get the experience!
Great reaction. Another Australian band to check out is Be'lakor, The Smoke Of Many Fires lyric video
I saw them in 2018 at the same theater in Denver with Wintersun. Yeah, that actually happened. I would love to see you react to Bloodred Hourglass. An amazing but woefully under recognized Finnish melodic death metal band. I doubt you’ll get many other requests if any but don’t do it for me, do it for yourself. Where the Sinners Crawl is a great place to start.
Holy shit those two together sounds like a nuclear explosion to my senses! How lucky!
bloodred hourglass are great!
They were amazing with Wintersun!! I saw them both in SF and it was such an amazing show omg
Only recently discovered your channel, fantastic! You'll get calls to react to many different songs of theirs, but I personally recommend Pyrrhic.
REVISIT :- ( Devour black holes), painters of the tempest part 2, of Petrichor weaves black noise ........ heavier but at least as good personal choice
I just watched your Wintersun reaction before this video and funny thing is that I discovered Ne Obliviscaris because they did their opening in Montreal few years ago. If you like this band, you should check song Devour Me Colossus, (Part I): Blackholes its one of my favorite
HELL YEAH, NE OBLIVISCARIS.
Check out Ayreon - The Day That The World Break Down. There is a ongoing commentary about the technical aspect of the recording.
Fits perfect👌
All for this and lost of other Ayreon stuff as well, also from the same album I recommend ´everybody dies´ for something more lighthearted :D
I've been waiting for this and more of this Band in the future... That pumped me for this day!
What's even wilder is that the amount of insane Australian Metal/Rock/Prog bands that never get the recognition due to how Australia treats its arts scene. Like the biggest metal bands in Australia had its pianist on the show "Married at first sight" if that doesn't explain the financial struggle, nothing will haha
I can never tire of this song and especially this live version. Such a talented band. Great reaction.
I hope this means Chase will react soon to this one ;)
Hello. I would like to request something from Trees of Eternity.
Unfortunately there are no live performances that I know of, but there is a valid reason why. (There are some live recordings with pre-recorded vocals) It is absolutely imperative that you do at least a little research on the group prior to listening. Knowing the tragic story behind the album is part of what makes it so amazing.
The songs I recommend are: Sinking Ships (most popular, but acoustic), Gallow's Bird, and Hour of the Nightingale. All the songs on the album are amazing though.
Thanks.
My Requiem makes me cry :/ lol
OK sir, hats off. Literally my birthday 17/8, requested this and you delivered, thank you sir, I hope you enjoyed the song as much as I ever did.
YES! Hope you enjoy it! 🤘
Gonna add another vote to check out The Day the World Breaks Down by Ayreon. Great video with 11 different vocalists, some of which you will definitely know.
Yeah, I've seen this one recommended so much now that it's gotta happen soon. Thank you!
im sure u got tons of requests but, i would like to see u do a reation of the band "Ancient Bards - Through My Veins (liveat wacken 2015)" fun fact: as of 2017 the bass player is also the bass player for Ne Obliviscaris. they are epic power metal. Ancient Bards is imo one of the most underrated bands out there.
you should also listen to their song painters of the tempest part 2
Hello sir !
It's good to see people discovering NeO.
Can you please react to some other stuff from them like :
-Painters of the tempest : Triptych lux.
-Phyrric.
-Eyrie.
And there is this powerful/beautiful band called Persephone who is just a blast :
-Prison skin
-Stilness is timeless
-Spiritual migration
There is no video nor good quality live but these are (in my opinion) really good songs.
Keep up the good work :)
just gotta say, dig your style guessing wtf you gonna get into. this band is a chameleon when doing the guessing game 😂🍻
If you like this you MUST check out Saor - Forgotten paths - Scottish atmospheric black metal, my personal best metal song if 2019 .. this and Vehemence - La fronde des ange.
Please check out COLDRAIN :) they are a Japanese metalcore band. Most people know their MAYDAY with Ryo from Crystal Lake featured in it, but their other songs are great too
At the time they were struggling to just keep existing! This was initially supposed to be a black metal band but they ended up as a god tier progressive blackened technical melodic death metal act. They are awesome live, last time I saw them in London, the violinist’s then fiancée joined them on stage for this song with two violins.
That is so rad!
Sounds like [Jazz fusion/fusion] to me, which is a very unpopular style that require a high level of musicianship and music theory.
There's not that much of artists that are on that genre but it's a very cool style. As it's name says it's a fusion of styles and genres.
I second the voices that suggest Ayreon - The day that the world breaks down. You will be blown away! And see some familiar faces!
Definitely happening soon!
Excellent song, great performance. Reminds me of My Dying Bride who you should check out.
Check out the "Portal of I" album it's their only really stellar album, others are bit meh for the most part but that one is fucking amazing.
I'm a big fan of Citadel
haha Tim forgot all about singing, had so much fun just head banging, @ around 14:20 forward-- but picked back up beautifully xD
If you want to be surprised, at the other side of the spectrum I suppose, check out : Between the Buried and Me - Extremophile Elite (LIVE)
Satyricon - K.I.N.G. would be cool as hell. Groovy black metal from Norway :D
I like your channel because you and I have more or less the same musical tastes. I especially like that I haven't seen pop music on here. Which is not to say that they aren't talented, but their music isn't interesting at all to hear.
This is the 2nd band I discover through this channel. New subscriber, man! Thank you!
Check out Sancta Terra live, amazing, don't tell more to avoid spoiler, enjoy it is mesmerizing
Another great review. I like your added comments post editing and the attention you pay to gear and the technical side of their playing. I haven't seen many comments for more Ne Obliviscaris songs, so here are mine: Devour Me Colossus, Intra Venus, As Icicles Fall and Forget Not are all worth a listen.
For similar bands, I recommend Persefone. They have some great concept albums which are a dying media.
Thanks a ton! Definitely wanna check these guys out more.
It’s one masterpiece after another from this band.
Anything with Clan Campbell's motto is going to catch my eye...or ear in this case...;)
Wow! I had no idea that was a motto from a Highland Clan! I wonder if that's just coincidence or where they took that from?
I just looked it up. They got their name 100% from Clan Campbell! That's crazy!
It's mindblowing that these guys were openers for Cradle of Filth, considering how trash the latter have been for the past decade or so...
Absolutely not my cup of tea! But anyways... a lot of people will fck with it! I just don't! ^^
Hey, look at that Foo Fighters album on the wall. Imagine thinking that was an actual steak? hehe... *awkward laugh*
You gotta listen to “of petrichor weaves black noise” off of this same album. For me, it’s the best song on the album. This is the weakest song imo, but maybe bc I’ve listened to it too much while watching reactions. It’s got a live video, but I recommend the studio because just. Wow. Great video, loved the insight!
This just occurred to me : this was the last song of their set. Imagine being up next - how the hell do you follow that?
Wow !! a lot of prog in the bass line
thanks Tank, didn't know this band
good choice
I'd never heard a song, where the bassist grabbed me for an entire song.
even this one took awhile, but now I hear nothing else....
The moast important thing. They seem like great guys to have some beers and a laugh whit :)
I love the classical instruments getting more use lately in metal and rock bands. It's good.
Trust me, you need to see Opeth! Delivereance or Gost of Perdition please!
Awesome Tank! Glad you enjoyed this as much as we did!
Definitely a good one! 🤘
P.S. Check out Persephone- Living waves
Dude, you are the man. I have seen them live and have quite a few vidz i did and believe me they are amazing live. The new bassist is also a beast even though cygnus will always be missed. As next for them i suggest Intra Venus, has a sick guitar/violin duel and the bass is crazy awesome. Keep it up man, nice to see you growing the channel.
Thanks man!
Could you react to "The Funerary Dirge of a Violinist"? Symphonic black metal from the Netherlands with some amazing lyrics, and an incredible video.
I love how you take the 'gear nerd' approach. As a bassist myself, I would like to add that I'm *pretty sure* the bassist is using a Status Graphite bass of some sort?
What was that? Keep spamming Ayreon?
If you insist, then I must oblige :-)
But I'm going to suggest something from electric castle live. Amazing Flight is a pretty good gateway into everything.
And everyone on that stage is a rabbithole in their own right. Especially the little red head in the backing choir. But I'm spamming Ayreon, not Marcela... though you should do both. :-D
Well except for that tall hippie weirdo. Nobody knows how he keeps getting cast *Wink*
I promise Ayreon is coming sometime soon. They're currently near the top of my list of videos to get to!
They released a new song today 6/12/22 "Equus" and its absolutely EPIC!!!!!!!
Check out their song "Intra Venus"! 🤘🤘
Signum Pacis Amor ✊ Glad my family still keep the clan motto.
Awesome band, worth looking into, thanks.
Another Australian band you can check out is Be’lakor.
And Omnium Gatherum (Finnish) - I’ve mentioned them before and will keep doing it, specially anything from their latest 4 albums
I've got Omnium Gatherum writting down, but if you wanna keep mentioning it, go for it! Haha. Honestly, sometimes I do forget. And I've heard the name Be'lakor a few times so I'll have to check that out too. 🤘
Matt Klavins is obviously obviously has Latvian blood in him. 1/4, maybe less, maybe 1/2 because of the surname. Then, if I am not mistaken, it would be interesting to learn whether they in Australia have anything we here are calling "preserving of Latvian culture". We have quite a few people here telling that instead of enjoying Western culture we should follow example or Latvians abroad, who can speak Latvian, sing folk songs and dance folk dances. Or at least is willing to learn all this.
This was a scandalous video by an our folk group ua-cam.com/video/IvK33Rn6JNo/v-deo.html. The song is correct pagan winter feast, but how dared they! On the other hand the video got noticed, and probably by some young and sufficiently talented musician....
I saw them two years later at the same venue as in the video. They opened for Wintersun, another band you have reacted to. It was a great night.
let's go or Persefone
craziest concert evet
i mean, it's for sure the hell for every roadie or security staff, but when does it happend that the lead singer is jumping into the pit
crazy concert, crazy band and crazy good ^^
fleshgod apocalypse sugar,please.
Should have done the song Eyrie by the same band.
Wish we could "Let's goooo \_" earlier! 7.5 more hours to go...
Totally worth the wait!!!
DEVOUR ME COLOSSUS
Thank you for reacting to this! Looking forward to this dropping!!
Masterclass musicianship indeed . . .
Lemme throw you a curveball and suggest an all-instrumental band to react to: Night Verses. You might have heard of the drummer's other band Fever333, but Night Verses is where he (and the other two guys ofc) really show off their INSANE talent and creativity. I can't even really describe their style, other than that it's very atmospheric, sometimes almost dreamlike and pretty intense progressive metal with an eerie twist. Dude they might not be the most requested band on your channel - mostly because they're not insanely popular I guess - but I PROMISE, you'll love it! Their play-thru of Copper Wasp would probably be the best starting point to get into their stuff. You're awesome, keep it up!
Thank you for that, man! I'm familiar with Fever, but haven't heard of Night Verses. I'll throw it in the notebook and try to get to it eventually!
@@TankTheTech you definitely won't regret it! Even if it doesn't make it onto the channel, I hope you'll get the chance to listen to some of their music in whichever way.
That reminds me of 2 Bands. First Eluveitie (e.g Inis Mona or Rebirth, they have an Wacken live clip too). You should check them out. Thy call themselves a new wave of Folk Metal. They are 9 people on stage with unconventional Instruments for Metal but totally awesome. Would be nice to see your reaction with your roadie background.
and then Omnium Gatherum (e.g. Frontiers). They are not that well known but an awesome Melodic Death Metal Band.
On an totally different genre. Do you know Powerwolf? I have to many ideas for you to check out.
I like the Eluveitie I've heard, but haven't heard too much so I could definitely do a video. And Powerwolf has been so recommended lately that I'll definitely be doing that soon!
That Powerwolf is recommended a lot doesn't surprises me. They had a pretty good spot on Wacken in 2019. Basically every band that has a good spot in Wacken are awesome and worth checking out: Parkway Drive, Amon Amarth, ...
Yay, you just did another of my favourite bands in short time, thanks Tank!
Aaaand here I go again ;)
Try out Shylmagoghnar with Transience!
...I know, I'm the only one requesting them (simply because they are not as well known as they should be), but every reactor who did them was full of praise for this amazing project from the Netherlands.
A bit of background maybe: It's a two man project, one Textwriter/Singer and one Composer/Multiinstrumentalist, who do everything by themselfes and it's f**ing impressive. Melodic, progressive and hard as hell...
Have a nice day and keep rockin \,,/
I second your request
Hey there, Tank. Dude, that drummer is a machine. Total 4-way independent syncopation. Tried some of that shit when I was young (80's) and I can tell ya it's not easy. Love it. Cheers again from Aus. \m/ ;) \m/
I once was at a concert where I came for Amon Amarth and As I Lay Dying. Unfortunately for them, their opening band was SepticFlesh, which I was completely unfamiliar at that time. To tell the truth Amon Amarth and AILD was great, but what SepticFlesh made that night was the start of my love for them... Wonder how many people were in this crowd who went for the other 2 bands and was blown away by Ne Obliviscaris.
Drummer:Insane kick work. Guitarist:Tapping like a madman Singer:Sexy hips time
Something rad, sooo.. You need to check SuidAkrA!
Balor, Dimorphic, Wartunes, Dowth 2059, oh so many good songs. They are on stage from 1994! With 14 albums right now! One of most underrated band, They deserve a lot more, people need to know them, and Channel like Yours is a good place for it! 🤘
Orbit Culture! New stuff out!
That’s the first bassist in a long time whose playing immediately took my mind to Cliff Burton... that super melodic, "play it like a classical guitar" sound.
I wonder what might be slightly different in metal had he lived.
Counting the seconds for this
Leprous - Slave live! Do it! That would be so great!
Agree, or Contaminate Me
You can't do the wrong choice with Leprous! 👌
So glad you decided to chek them out. Awesome video! Now that I got my way I'm going to start asking for Rivers of nihil - Where owls know my name. Awesome music video!!!
Ohhhh I've never seen this song live!! Incredible! I'm shocked this was even a song that could be played live, and they did it perfectly wtf! Have you ever listened to Karnivool? Another Australian band, one of my faves - anything off their Sound Awake album is gold. Also there are parts of this song that remind me a lot of another fave of mine, black metal/shoegaze band called Alcest. Check out the video for "Sapphire" off their newest album Spiritual Instinct - the band was created by this French guy, Neige, and in some of the songs (like Sapphire) he sings in this made-up language of his own invention, it's really neat to hear. (For my money though, Kodama is their best album, give "Oiseaux de proie" a listen sometime.) Sorry to write a novel in your comments hahah
I don't know how I missed this!! Oh wait, I was driving for three days straight. That's right. :P Thank you for the great video! I love NeO - they are masterful.
Wow, thanks for the introduction. That was awesome! I'll definitely be checking them out some more.
Let me take the opportunity to bother you about Son of a Bach too.
Got to see these gents a few years ago in Portland Oregon. Front row center!! These guys were absolutely fantastic live!! To top it off, my local friends "Vintersea" opened that night! You might dig them. Their videos are really great!! What an awesome night that was. Glad to catch this reaction, don't know how it slipped by my l me for so long. Love your content Tank!
You need some flute in your metal life ...Eluveitie. rebirth
I love what I've heard from Eulveitie, and don't think I've seen that video. Thanks! 🤘
Cynus or whatever he calls himself, plays chunky ass bass lines. Origin's bass player owns him by miles though. What a beast.
Another master class band that you should check out is Son Of Aurelius. They are Berkley College of Music trained. Any band I reccomend I don't expect a video for you to do, only to give you something new.
Please check out O Resolution, a perfect song of Wilderun's more than perfect album Veil of Imagination, the letter you get in the mail of your dreams inviting you to uncharted realms. It’s the hidden portal calling out to you as you go about your life rending daily routine. Wilderun have built a monumental, immersive experience that is transcendentally good, cradling the whole of emotional expression in its earthen hands. Their music is elemental in nature, primal in execution, and fantastic in scale. Nearly unmatched in terms of quality and pacing, it’s likely the apex of epic progressive symphonic metal music as it exists today. Hope you give it a try!
Love NeO. Seen them live 3x including this tour but in Texas. Amazing live sound. If you’re curious, Cygnus has bass play throughs of NeO songs and also his other projects. He a bad ass and too bad he’s no longer in the band but Martino definitely makes up for it.
