![SION - "The Blade" (REACTION!!!) [Howard Jones + Jared Dines]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/sjFGXyPOke4/mqdefault.jpg)
Jared toured with Trivium for a while (playing guitar a bit and vlogging) and Howard was one of the openers with his band. When Matt Heafy had to leave the tour because of his newborn twins Jared had to fill in and play guitar and Howard was one of the guys taking on vocal duties. Guess they got along and here we are. :)
Hey awesome comment! Thanks for that info!
There is an hour long interview on Rockfeed that's absolutely worth the listen. How they met the begging of the project to song writing etc. Great shit
Saw Jared when he filled in on guitar for breaking Benjamin and he was having the time of his life. Happy he’s releasing something like this of his own that’s very unique.
and now they are working on a full 10 song album together with this as the first single
Fun fact just for everyone, howard was a opera singer thats how his voice is so huge.
Fun fact. “Sion” is Howard’s middle name
Fun fact. 'Sion' is the Welsh version of Shaun ( pronounced the same )
As soon as he hits his cleans it’s impossible not to be like oh my god. Howard is such an amazingly talented vocalist.
Howard Jones is one of the best vocalists of all time, any genre. He’s so damn good haha 🤘
Fun fact just for everyone, howard was a opera singer thats how his voice is so huge.
@@xeakira chorus not opera
@@WHOREHAMMER_OFFICIAL Choir 😃 Chorus is the part of a song
@@GaiusM89 actually its a class for siging in school. Its literally the exact some thing as choir though lol
Also they have 9 other songs coming Jared done all the guitars and Howard writing lyrics as well done the vocals
You know it’s a banger when Johnny reaches for the sky
Music is my religion and a banger of a chorus is my God hahaha
@@johnnyneedham9831 I think you'd enjoy The Horror Within by Shadow Of Intent
@@kylebyrne8096 will check it out!
Damn this song really does leave you speechless, it's perfect. Absolutely perfect.
I feel like everyone has the same reaction the moment Howard starts that verse
Howards 50yrs old and used to sing for kill switch engaged now he is with light the torch and owning it.
Literally everything Howard touches is gold... The last Light the Torch was my favorite album for like 2 years straight. Stoked for the rest of this project and the new LtT album due out soon too
I get Sevendust and Breaking Benjamin, but Jared is Jared and has his own uniqueness to his playing! So happy for him!
I think Jared is doing all the music in this...
I love how the SOLO took no focus away from the actual SONG!
This is monumental! Howard's history as a frontman, his voice, Jared's growth as a musician and UA-camr, touring with Matt Heafy and Trivium. Both of these guys are legends! And then to come together, to not only deliver a masterpiece of a single, but to debut as a new project! I could not be happier as a huge fan of Jared's and Howard's! They killed it!! As always, glad to see some fellow metalheads that can appreciate not only the music itself but the significance of the people involved! Keep rocking guys! \m/
This was a banger boys !!! Can’t wait for more. Howard’s vocals could raise an army! HUGE!
I think that rest of the world is missing is that that was two...TWO...gentleman...producing a song with the sound depth quality substance layers and "it-ness"/"awesomeness" of a whole ass team of artists...good bad or ugly, however you feel about it, it is indeed legendary, and I love it💯💯💯❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘!!!
They've got an entire album coming!
The clean vocals are off the scale, daamn, he sounds godlike. Absolutely loving it! Whole song is sooo on point! Great!
I can't wait for the entire album! Everyone loves Howard's vocals which to be fair rightfully so, but Jared's skills are also fucking 🔥 Both so fucking talented!
Bloody brilliance and power, such an amazing song, great review of it also, cheers from Canada
How amazing is it to very talented blokes
This song gives me fucking goosebumps every time
Been missing my Aussie friends. Especially when I have to wake up early, love starting my day off with some good reactions to some sick music. Took me a few months but finally stumbled on the new channel. Hell yeah!
Glad you found us!
I have heard this song 100s of times and I still get chills when that chorus hits
Finally someone else said it sounds like a sevendust riff
I gotchu 💪🏼
That chorus is instant goosebumps!
Fun fact the Original blood has been shed was formed in my hometown of Columbus OH. Howard is definitely a pioneer of the Ohio Metalcore scene
5 months later and I still play this song at least 10 times in a row when it comes up on my playlist. Howard is a vocal God above all others. It's not worth the effort to deny it.
shout outs from South Australia
Aaaah LOVED every second of this!!!! Simply perfect. 👌🏼
It’s sooo good! 🤤🤘🏻🔥 Was gonna suggest this to you guys but you beat me to it! 😄🤙🏻 Can’t wait to hear more Sion!
In the meantime, Crystal Lake - Hail To The Fire is a solid banger! 🤘🏻
Johnny on the money bro, huuuuuuge Sevendust vibes! Couldn't put my finger on who it reminded me of. Brb, listening to Enemy.
I believe the project probably started when Jared played guitar with Trivium and Howard’s other band (I forget the name) was on the tour. I remember his video on that.
howard's other band : light the torch , maybe ?
Woo! Getting added to the playlist! Banger.
the whole album is out now its AMAZING every track
Dude Nathan! Fit pro and metal head!?!? Why aren't we friends!!!!!
My goosebumps have goosebumps
Goosebumps every time. Never fails.
Fun fact just for everyone, howard was a opera singer thats how his voice is so huge.
Goosebumps every time! 🤘❤
Good thing they're doing an album together.
I'm guessing Sevendust's song Tits on a Boar was the vibe you were getting at the start
YES!
Woah AWESOME ✊😆
Howard Jones Just kills it, love his voice
You guys are awesome
Watching this was my first time seeing it and my reaction was the same! How fucking epic!!!
Agree with the Sevendust vibes.
when i put that song in the car and turn almoust on the maximum, people around think what i crazy and wtf is that music... but when starting chorus... that vocal... btw, in Russia i'm doing this and now Estonian people have to listen right music!
🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
Y'all need to check out the Dines x Heafy EP. They Put out a video for Dear Anxiety off it.
WOW, OMG, YES
Jinjer- Pisces live studio version needs to be done
Thanks BOYS!!!!!
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
If the rest of the album is like this,🤯. Jared and Howard filled in for Matt Heafy of Trivium when Matt had to leave a tour early. Might want to check out Jared and Matt’s EP, DinesX Heafy. Excellent also. Love the song, great reaction.
Thank you 🙏🏼
@@johnnyneedham9831 Welcome.
Howard is one of the best vocalists ever! The power behind his cleans is just astounding. His screams too really. He's just a sick well rounded vocalist
And the fact howard is in his 50's
The legend that is Howard Jones has just released a new single with his band light the torch, with a new album coming this year also! Hope you gents find the time to react to the new track 👍
Mah boi said Sevendust. Fuck yes.
Jared and Howard met when they toured with a band. Unfortunately, I, unfortunately, forget the name of the band.
It was for a trivium tour that Jared filled in on guitar 👍
For the sevendust vibes, I hear T.O.A.B. from the Animosity album in the intro.
i thought the same thing, like Sevendust meets Killswitch
I agree....Howard Jones is back!!!
Yeah Man! i am attached to these first impressions, `cause they mirror mine. i love how all metal-lovers love the same things. yeah?! The work put in. The strain of the work, sound enorme. The good reward, the metal; the fist to palm, rift to alm, guitar intense. Vocals to call the dogs back. Where one wandering might upon a bit a help come,
not just lovely rock and yo mud! For love of Earth and her preservation, tendance~! And you know what?
apologizecross the red line for some, not yet others. Till happenings take over and dependence goes off mad to her room. And even even complaint veers some off, were any trying.
The metal is a legend genre forever :D
You need to react to Chelsea's Wolves
Crazy but I swear when Howard went into the clean vocals the first time I kinda teared up a little. Missed that guy.
Hey! You should check out Devour by Suffer Uk!
Slaughter to prevail - demolisher
How can you not love Howard Jones? Jesus, he's the king.

So in theory, Seth Rogan must have some serious metalcore potential.
He does sound like Seth Rogan without the laugh
I really do think howard was better with killswitch then jesse.... Now watch me get executed for saying that
I used to think this but Jesse is just the best fit for the band. Howard is still doing great on his own !
I’m kinda torn on that one, but my fav kse album is end of heartache for sure
Executed? Alive or Just Breathing having always been my favorite Killswitch Album, and will forever be my favorite Killswitch album... My experience is that of being crucified for saying I think Jesse is better than Howard! haha
Here's the thing, my favorite album is AoJB... But my favorite KsE SONG ever is Rose of Sharyn... Pretty much hands down. If I had the choice to see KsE live with Howard, or with Jesse, I'd be choosing Howard without hesitation..
Now you may be thinking I'm one bipolar SoB right now but hear me out... I love every single song on AoJB. Some more than others, but I can absolutely listen to the album all of the way through without the desire to skip a song, and have done so many many times.
I have never listened to The End of Heartache all the way through without skipping songs, similar story with As Daylight Dies. Although the high points of albums with Howard are extremely high... A few of them higher than anything from AoJB even.. I don't know if it's Howard's voice, or what it is exactly. But, for me, it starts to become extremely repetitive, boring, mediocre metalcore... And it seemed to only get worse and worse as time went on.
The latest self titled album with Howard, his last album with them I believe? Is pure, hot garbage. It devolved from albums with really good high points and some filler that can't be called "bad" songs, but were also generally not worth listening to and were generally uninspiring... Into an entire album with just the filler, the high points are no longer entire songs, rather they are moments in particular songs throughout the album. It was awful. Most of the huge KsE fans I know can't name a song off that album. Me? I tried so hard... And got so.. Well not very far at all. I listened to every song on that album repeatedly. I was left disappointed and no closer to finding anything to love about the album.
I can't say it really surprised me even.. It seemed like it was always where they were headed. Howard's screaming was downright mediocre (in Killswitch, I've only heard this song once but it seems as though his chops may have improved since then) and thus his songs rely HEAVILY on a sexy as fuck, memorable, clean hook. But those can only take you so far, as they get kind of boring if you're doing it every song.. So we have Rose of Sharyn, My Curse, The End of Heartache being the biggest songs on that album I believe.. What do they all share? The chorus (OK and Adam D's guitar work was on effing point for TEOH). Some of my favorite Howard songs were actually Jesse songs from that live DVD they put out hahaha.
Anyway, this got incredibly long winded. I apologize for that, but I'm just kind of curious if I'm the only one who thought this way, or if KsE fans are actually so polarized, either Howard.. Or Jesse.. No in between. And BTW I know I said a lot of bad about Howard KsE but I love that era, and I absolutely loved Howard as their vocalist. AoJB as a whole though, is just too much of a masterpiece for Howard to have ever competed in my eyes.. Especially when we're talking a whole album vs basically just a couple of songs... Very good songs... Brb I have a date with Rose of Sharyn rn.
New Jesse is totally meh, though... To explain this sentiment, I'm going to use the genius of Kanye West -
"I hate the new Jesse, I love the old Jesse!
I hate the new Jesse, I love the old Jesse!
I hate the new Jesse, I love the old Jesse!" lol
I need to put my face in the freezer cuz it was melted off
the right guy can look through a keyhole with both eyes at once
Love your reactions guys... but it seems like Nate is kinda rude to Johnny sometimes... maybe you’re like the best of friends but at least as a viewer it might put people off.. if not then just ignore but just had to put it out there.. keep up the good work
All in good fun my friend. We’ve been mates for a very long time and it’s all just playful banter.
@@johnnyneedham9831 oh cool that’s awesome... relieved to know
