That scream on the line "This is what you asked for" says so much. To me its a massive "well you wanted heavy so here it is. We are literally giving you what you asked for".
This is honestly the closest they've gotten to the hybrid theory meteora sound in 20 years music wise, but it's just missing Chester's vocals. That one element would make this perfect
What a ballsy move. Emily is really going "You think I can't scream like Chester did? I'm going to give you my version of Given Up." And they planned all this way before the launch!
I believe her sighs, breaths and cracks is part of her style they leave in. She does it live as well as you know. So to me it's just part of her and I love it. Gives her her uniqueness. I also read something Joe Hahn said that one of the reasons he liked her so much was her own way of screaming. It's not really like anyone else. Just her.
@@XxSEETH3RxX totally agree. Plus, to me, breath not being included in singing like this just feels odd, unnatural, robotic kind of thing. It makes her feel human, and it gives the song (and the story) the right vibe.
In contrast to "Given up" she has no time to breathe before the scream, she even sings "this is what you asked" before the "fooooooooor". They played the song at the end of their show in Hamburg with a slightly shorter scream. Impressive af.
The Hamburg show this song was 1h50m into the set. Like her vocals and endurance is CRAZY to even pull out 13 seconds (if you include the "this is what you asked" bit onto it)
Love the fact that they sound more old school with the new releases. Whatever it may be I am excited about Linkin Park releasing a new album and touring.
There's real skill in knowing when imperfection serves art and the choice to leave in so much of the breath work in this song was genius to sell it's intensity
Absolutely love the editing choice of leaving the breaths in. As you said, turns it into part of the performance - enhances the "desperate" feel. This is not squeaky clean, processed vocals as instrument, this is raw anger externalized.
I was at the concert in Hamburg where they played that song first time live, and I can tell, that they also nailed that song in the live environment, Emily even did the long scream at same length without issues. The entire concert was really awesome, I‘ve never encountered such connection and spirit between band and audience before. Of course, rest in peace Chester, the band is doing a great job in not trying to replace him. During the entire concert you felt that he has still his place on stage, which gets filled with the spirit from the audience, while Emily co-exists and simply takes in a new role. Really looking forward into the bright future of Linkin Park. 10/10
I really dig how you can really hear her breath here.. For me it just makes the song feel more "natural" if thats the right word for it, the feeling of desperation just feels a whole lot more authentic.
Emily is really making this her own and I'm loving it. On a side note, you were mentioning the breathing: you want to hear all of Muse's early albums. Matt Bellamy is the King of breathing in songs. Their lyrics are 50% breathing in.
Meteora came out when I was 14.... that we're getting this incredible new stuff that is so fresh and yet so timeless is just pure magic to me. What a wonderful time we live in. Thanks or the react as always Chris!
I believe Mike said in several interviews with emptiness machine as an example, that they aren't editing or distorting emilys vocals in post at all, which is why the breaths are very audible,
Its a combination of faint, bleed it out and little bit of given up for the scream. But its so fucking great, i got so emotional when listening to this banger song.❤
As soon as I heard the song I knew you'd love it! I'm so glad to see you enjoying this reaction! Appreciate the explanation on the screaming she does, I'mma keep practicing!
Seen so many people say she will ruin her voice and she doesn’t know what she is doing. Love the breakdown. So many people talk it’s nice to hear from someone that actually knows what they are talking about ❤
Uhh those breathing sounds are something else bro. They probably did turn them up in the mix and I'm loving it because it makes for such a visceral experience
My kids already love it. They're around 10 years old. I only became a metalhead when I was almost an adult and made it my task as a father that my kids got to get into the right kind of music. I love LP, they do too. Mission accomplished. (At least for now, hehe...)
That 16 seconds of screaming were personal hahaha it’s almost like she was telling the audience who didn’t like her "You want a long scream like Chester's? Then here you go!"
@@chrisliepe yes of course I'd enjoy learning how to sing like those amazing artists even if it only alittle bit it just sounds amazing and effortless the way they make it look
thanks for letting me know when you posted this! I saw the anthem video before the other linkin park video and was waiting with baited breath for if you reacted to this! Emily is so good.
I was hoping you did a quick reaction to this one. You would be thrilled to know that on Nov 3rd* they are having a concert with SLEEP TOKEN opening for them in Paris
Will Ramos will be beside himself. Heck he probably booked a flight the moment they announced it. Not sure how far he is from Dallas, TX. If I wasn’t traveling already, I’d consider it.
Soooo, there's actually an awesome theatrical metal album by a solo creator. The album is called "Heavy Is The Crown", it's made by Justin Bonitz, the vocalist of the metal band 'Tallah'. If you wanna hear a metal album full of talent and character that's not afraid to try different things and follows an epic fictional story, please check out Hungry Lights - Heavy Is The Crown.
wow they must have known about the new LP lineup a while before the announcement. I really love whenever Emily comes in with THIS IS WHAT YOU ASKED FOR, sounds great.
Thank you for putting good quality music in your reactions. Its really frustrating watching some reactors when they have the music going on background speakers and just recording with the same mic they're speaking into.
I would absolutely LOVE to see your reaction to elizabeth addict by sukekiyo!! I think you would find a lot of joy in Kyo's vocal freedom. He is a super cool vocalist considering he has never had any professional training supposedly!
When Emily screams. Watch her scream live and compare her voice to M. Shadows’s scream from God hates us all from Rock Am Ring 2011!! She sounds like him to me!! 🗣️🔥
6:45 don’t kill me, but for some reason, it reminds me of Will Ferrell in one of his movies. Low-key think Will Ferrell could do metal with some training haha
youtube thank you. it popped up the music video as an advert. dont play league of legends but this is a mesmerizingly good video and i immediately bought the track despite the attempt of amazon to sabotage me. i see Emily as a ball of rage in the song, angry that someone gets what they wanted then cant handle it and complains. my main thought was 'linkin park?? i thought you had gone, but you're back!'
also full of pushback in the lyrics against those who want to dig up chester from the grave like thats even possible and if not see the band gone forever.
Loving the screams content. Surprised you’ve not covered Richard Patrick form filter. Some great songs which are pretty much scream vocals all the way through like collumind/welcome to the fold/take that knife outta my back. Always great watching your videos man. 🙏
I have to apologize because I wont be able to explain my self in musical terms correctly. There is a difference between studio version of this song and the live shows at the Hamburg, which makes me live version like more. When she sang in the live show "Try to hold it in, but... " part "in" sounded cleaner and "but" felt explosive so that her voice broke in desperate way. This to me added another layer to hook making it more dynamic as opose in studio version which felt just a little bit reserved. What are your thoughts on this?
I agree... I LOVED her live performances... The sept 5 show was so awesome because we got to ehar and see her vulnerability FIRST... before we learned of her mastery!
Hi, I love your vocal reaction videos! I think that a vocal analysis of 9-lana - propose could be interesting. It reminds me of Ado and Minami quite a bit.
Learn the sensations and get the foundation necessary to sing aggressivly and scream. Join my free course! chrisliepe.com/free-your-voice/
Hey can you react to Mashle and Magic (Muscles) by Creepy nuts on First take.
That scream on the line "This is what you asked for" says so much. To me its a massive "well you wanted heavy so here it is. We are literally giving you what you asked for".
exactly!
This is honestly the closest they've gotten to the hybrid theory meteora sound in 20 years music wise, but it's just missing Chester's vocals. That one element would make this perfect
Put this way it really reminds me of "Are you happy now?" in Architects' "Seeing Red"...
Exactly, However I guess this was made it before the band's return. But yeah, very apropiate for the present. Greetings.
For sure
god that scream. she blew me away. she did a great job
For a minute i was like "wait, when did i comment on this?"🤣🤣
Emily is absolutely killing it. So excited to hear the rest of the album.
Can someone steal it and release earlier than November please?!
@@ostrzyczka I need someone too
Will actually buy a cd for the first time in forever I think for this one. They killing it
What a ballsy move. Emily is really going "You think I can't scream like Chester did? I'm going to give you my version of Given Up." And they planned all this way before the launch!
Whilst acknowledging "Heavy is the crown" in the lyrics then bang 15 second scream. So good!
YEP
She almost topped his scream as well! During the live show it was 11s long, studio version is 15s while Chester screamed for 16s straight!
@@daydream8451yeah, 2 times only in live.
@@daydream8451 one line+one word held 16.3seconds

This is not squeaky clean, processed vocals as instrument, this is raw anger externalized.
Love how they left the part where she regains her breath after the scream. Another great track! 👏
Yessssss that is so fucking awesome!
Ya, noticed that too, upon second listen... so cool!
I think on the live performances that break might have been intentionally put in there to give her a second to recover and move right into the chorus
@@RayOLight it’s a long scream so I can understand that.

Didn't even know there was an official music video. So this confirms it. Linkin Park will be on the Arcane soundtrack. I am complete.
I'm not sure about that. This seems to be a video for annual League of Legends championship.
@@spacerangerlol It is
@@spacerangerlol Ye no its confirmed that it is the official track for Arcane
They released a list of the musicians/artists they've chosen for Arcane season 2. LP wasn't on it iirc
@@eliteiel9747 no, it's for the LoL world championship
I really dig how you can really hear her breath here.. For me it just makes the song feel more "natural" if thats the right word for it, the feeling of desperation just feels a whole lot more authentic.
Love this song already. Insane come back. Love your breakdown too
Emily is really making this her own and I'm loving it. On a side note, you were mentioning the breathing: you want to hear all of Muse's early albums. Matt Bellamy is the King of breathing in songs. Their lyrics are 50% breathing in.
I was immediately thinking of Matt Bellamy when Chris mentioned the breathing thing. Btw amazing banger from Linkin Park, they are definitly back!!!
That scream will help me in the gym...
and you can hear the sigh after the long scream, and then she sings even more....
Meteora came out when I was 14.... that we're getting this incredible new stuff that is so fresh and yet so timeless is just pure magic to me. What a wonderful time we live in. Thanks or the react as always Chris!

I think you're the first person to just show these vocal techniques rather than talk about them. I appreciate it.
I was waiting for you to react to this song! And you delivered! Yeah 🎉
This song is so good she keeps getting so much better. I loved emptiness machine and I think this is even better
Its a combination of faint, bleed it out and little bit of given up for the scream. But its so fucking great, i got so emotional when listening to this banger song.❤
I do think so ❤
I frickin love how "Heavy is the crown" goes perfectly for both Faker and now Emily is to hold the crown.
Oh Brother you have to watch the live 🫶🏼 I was lucky enough to witness this greatness in Hamburg
you were THERE?! ohhh... ENVY
@@chrisliepe they blew the roof off with this song. It was just incredible 🥹
As soon as I heard the song I knew you'd love it! I'm so glad to see you enjoying this reaction! Appreciate the explanation on the screaming she does, I'mma keep practicing!
Seen so many people say she will ruin her voice and she doesn’t know what she is doing. Love the breakdown. So many people talk it’s nice to hear from someone that actually knows what they are talking about ❤
lol Emily's been screaming ever since, look up Weatherman by Dead Sara
Uhh those breathing sounds are something else bro. They probably did turn them up in the mix and I'm loving it because it makes for such a visceral experience
She's also absolutely fantastic when she's singing live! Saw her yesterday and I am blown away ❤🤯
Can someone please make a cut of just him giving the vocal demonstrations 😂😂 love it
Damn how they are back. This video will bring them to a much younger fan base. Big brain comeback, even if you only look how official PR is going.
My kids already love it. They're around 10 years old. I only became a metalhead when I was almost an adult and made it my task as a father that my kids got to get into the right kind of music. I love LP, they do too. Mission accomplished. (At least for now, hehe...)
@@elpakotheglorious new album will do the rest for sure! so glad that LP might influence some more generations.
The live version was so good too
Looking forward to checking it out!
I still don't understand how Chris makes things so interesting for people like me who are not vocalists❤
That 16 seconds of screaming were personal hahaha it’s almost like she was telling the audience who didn’t like her "You want a long scream like Chester's? Then here you go!"
I never ever ever would have thought there was so much technique to a scream! Thank you for breaking that down.
8 month's of fry scream training before joining Linkin Park for that result impressive suberb work Queen 👑 Emily LP is back this album going to be🔥.
I love your ANALYSIS of LP. And you are right - Mike Shinoda knows how to do music.
brad playing without headphones for the first time since 2014 xD
That's crazy😂
Absolutly love your reactions and lessons with the reaction
Thank you!
@@chrisliepe yes of course I'd enjoy learning how to sing like those amazing artists even if it only alittle bit it just sounds amazing and effortless the way they make it look
That scream really grabs you by the throat and throws you agains the wall hahaha good lord
i was w8ing for your reaction chris! love from italy, i saw all ur ADO reactions!
Yeah!!! Was waiting for this one. Goosebumps when I heard that long scream for the first time!
I love these videos!! Btw thanks for the Will Ramos course - I'm digging all of the tips for getting a solid scream!!
Someone has to make a compilation of "out of context chirs liepe"
LOLL I just commented this same thing. It would be so good. 😂😂
6:25 demonstrating the scream and removing the pitch / giving more distortion - brilliant performance
She does the whole breath "sigh" live.. so keeping it on the record is incredible to me. I absolutely love her!
lmao the voice demos are hilarious. best reaction
*she is amazing* ❤🔥
thanks for letting me know when you posted this! I saw the anthem video before the other linkin park video and was waiting with baited breath for if you reacted to this! Emily is so good.
Damn this guy knows what's up, great breakdown!
was waiting for your reaction especially the 15 second note
My only quibble with both new songs is that I wish they were a bit longer.
Otherwise, full-on LP awesomeness.
Loved that scream..... I don't care what's your comment on that..
Im a Chester fan! but now i absolutely like Emely to!!
Thanks for LinkinPark 2.0
Mike Shinoda is one of the best in the business.
I was hoping you did a quick reaction to this one.
You would be thrilled to know that on Nov 3rd* they are having a concert with SLEEP TOKEN opening for them in Paris
WHATTTTTT?!? oh that would be amazing to behold!
Ok thats rly cool. Tho its sleep token opening for Linkin Park not Linkin Park opening for Sleep Token haha.
Will Ramos will be beside himself. Heck he probably booked a flight the moment they announced it. Not sure how far he is from Dallas, TX. If I wasn’t traveling already, I’d consider it.
@@JesseCohen Sleep Token isn't going to be at the Dallas show, only the Paris one.
@@ckatech Ah, whoops. Paris it is then…
I’m tone deaf and I’m pretty sure you just taught me how to sing
Thank you good sir you’re amazing at what you do
The breath is a compliment to the title. HEAVY is the Crown.
Emily is really really great!!!
I really love your instruction. So intuitive.

back to here, again ..
for one of most comprehensive reactions
So far so good LP 👏🏼
Roll on November 15th 👍🏻
That scream from Emily gave me goosebumps. It was so good 🔥
I wish I could have Chris Liepe give commentary on every album I listen to lol
Mike has always been the primary creative force behind Linkin Park which really helps to blend the new with the old.
I love that they chose not to edit out the breathing sounds too
wow i just commented on the comparison and ask you to hear it and here we are 😂❤ love you chris this is good info
IDK WHY SO MANY PEOPLE ONLINE ARE HATING ON HER BRUH SHES LITERALLY DOING SUCH AN AWESOME JOB
Lest seconds of the song…. It took my breath away… those notes of “New divine” brought me back in the past 😮
wow they must have known about the new LP lineup a while before the announcement.
I really love whenever Emily comes in with THIS IS WHAT YOU ASKED FOR, sounds great.
Thank you for putting good quality music in your reactions. Its really frustrating watching some reactors when they have the music going on background speakers and just recording with the same mic they're speaking into.
"THIS IS WHAT YOU ASKED FOR......"🔥🔥🔥 and Emily has given her amazing scream in this song ,,15 seconds scream
It's even a bit over 16, if you notice that the scream starts with "This", not with "for" :)
@@elpakotheglorious That's right, I counted starting from "for"
I noticed the breathing already on the studio version of The Emptiness Machine lol. First time I think I ever noticed it in music
I would absolutely LOVE to see your reaction to elizabeth addict by sukekiyo!! I think you would find a lot of joy in Kyo's vocal freedom. He is a super cool vocalist considering he has never had any professional training supposedly!
Holy crap! Emily is a force of nature. This should definitely shut up the people who said that she couldn't do what Chester did (RIP my brother).
When Emily screams. Watch her scream live and compare her voice to
M. Shadows’s scream from God hates us all from Rock Am Ring 2011!!
She sounds like him to me!! 🗣️🔥
6:45 don’t kill me, but for some reason, it reminds me of Will Ferrell in one of his movies. Low-key think Will Ferrell could do metal with some training haha
I love this song, I love this LP! I'm so onboard this train!
Just listened to Conversion by Straight line Stitch and Alexis' scream almost have the same raspy scream like Emily's
This Song is absolutly Fire!
🤯 🔥 Love the song, love the band, love the vocals, love the analysis!!! 🔥🤯
AN absolute banger (LP is back fr)🔥🖤🔥🖤🔥
youtube thank you. it popped up the music video as an advert. dont play league of legends but this is a mesmerizingly good video and i immediately bought the track despite the attempt of amazon to sabotage me. i see Emily as a ball of rage in the song, angry that someone gets what they wanted then cant handle it and complains. my main thought was 'linkin park?? i thought you had gone, but you're back!'

Yes, I also noticed that breath after lines on purpose
How much harder is it to elevate ''ask'' b4 the scream break down? So memorable to me. She doesn't do that note in live performances
Loving the screams content. Surprised you’ve not covered Richard Patrick form filter. Some great songs which are pretty much scream vocals all the way through like collumind/welcome to the fold/take that knife outta my back. Always great watching your videos man. 🙏

I just watched a video live on Dead Sara. She sounds TOTALLY different..
Linkin park + Sleep token hype
Do some vocal analysis of her first band, Dead Sara. I will miss them now she's fronting LP.
1:29 thanks a lot for this explanation. I noticed it like a mistake but that's totally assumed!
I will be front row when they come to Canada. Everyone else can hate all they want it will make it easier for me to get tickets!!
