The only thing I didn't like about this reaction was HLS apologizing for crying. Own it girl! I don't care what genre of music you're listening to, anything that can provoke a true, genuine emotion is amazing! Love you guys!!
Thank you😀🤗😘😘 I appreciate you💜
Got to listen to the full album this song is on, it tells an epic story.
Get a few drinks in ya, or what I like is to smoke a bowl of some nice Chernobyl or or a really nice indica strain then slap them headphones on and let the music take you away.
This band is so underrated. I absolutely love them.
Ditto, I can tell that its a true feeling and surprise to her. I love watching people become so emotional about the music that I love.
A new fan is born the pact is sealed, Unleash the Archers!
Five Finger Death Punch .. "Wrong Side of Heaven' makes me tear up.. Real men cry when it's important.
Power metal *is* cheesy though. Its galloping guitars, operatic vocals, and songs about dragons and wizards. And that's what we love about it :)
"For the king for the land for the mountains
For the green valleys where dragons fly
For the glory the power to win the black lord
I will search for the emerald sword"
:D
Can't forget to pronounce emerald like "Eeemerahld!"
It just sounds amazing!
MAH EEEEMRAHLD SAAWWWWD
Not all though. Gloryhammer is cheesy.. I dont think UtA is cheesy.
Brittney Slayes is like if Ronnie James Dio and Bruce Dickenson had a child that grew up listening to Lost Horizon. So good!
Wow, that's quiet accurate. Add some sunshine et voilà! :D
Brittney even admits she gets a lot of her stagecraft from Dio.
Ronnie James Dio popped in my head the first time I heard her
This!!!
Not gonna lie. Their drummer is on point
One of the best I've ever seen. Absolutely brilliant!
Not gonna lie, literally the entire band is on point
Dude is heroic. And yeah, all of them are some serious musicians.
This is just a masterclass by all musicians
Yeah, as goos as all the other members were, and they were spectacular, the drummer just stuck in my mind for some reason... now when I think UtA I think mad drums frist and foremost...
"They can do this forever for all I care" brother. You get it.
That is what I love about UTA they ARE cheesy, but there is no irony in it. They put a 100% effort into it. Brittney even has a back-story for the entire album and every song is part of the tale. Also I loved that reaction :D
Her reaction made me so happy... this is one of my favorite songs by one of my favorite bands. So happy i discovered them a few years ago during the release of their 2nd album, i like power metal but i dont follow to many bands.. the thing about unleash the archers is theyre not super power metal.. if that makes sense.. they feel very new wave british heavy metal.. just sped up a little bit.
Louis V
I like your characterization of UTA very much-they’re very reminiscent of the NWOBHM (New Wave of British Heavy Metal)-Maiden, Saxon, early Def Leppard. It’s “classic” metal with highly technical playing and modern elements added. As an older “metalhead,” I immediately dug their sound.
Totally… and the Abyss album even weaves in some great arena rock vibes (Boston, Yes, Kansas, etc.). It’s just fucking great. Huge fan. Amazing storytelling.
And Brittneys voice is bad ass. Her vibratto is slow enough that shes literally like classic Bruce Dickinson and Geoff Tate
But Brittney has a 3 to 4 octave range and also a great head voice too.
robert shimek for my money tonight we ride is the best showcase of her mind bending vocal range, what do you think? Which song really lets her soar?
Ryan Halien well i also like her in Test Your Metal.but Tonight We Ride she dies showcase her vocal movement more.
Hell yeah test your metal is great, she comes in hard right off the bat I love it
reminds me of Leather Leone on Mystery of Illusion (Chastain)
I appreciate her visceral reaction to the uplifting and exalted energy of power metal.
Your cries of happiness is exactly how I felt when I first heard these guys!!
HalfLifeSistah sounds so wonderfully upbeat and cheerful and it’s awesome.
I've watched TONS of reactions to this song... This may be the best one I've seen yet, the raw emotion, and honest reactions are amazing....
Yay!! You listened/reacted to my suggestion! Thanks!!
I’m glad you liked it.
That song is the first track off of their album ”Apex”. Each track is like a chapter in a book and tells an overall story through through the entire album.
The singer is very much a sci-fi and fantasy nerd (As am I ) and she is an extremely down to earth nice person.
D. Bruce Mangan yes, baby! Thanks for the suggestion! 😍🤗😘
It's a great album! Britney Slayes is an awesome singer
The first albums have a lot more growling in them too- Behold the Devastation especially, which is good, but I'm glad they've decided to focus more on Brittney's vocals in the later stuff- and the songwriting is definitely better- Apex is an absolutely cracking album. The title track is utterly fantastic.
I could not agree more, Apex is an outstanding album, every song is really good, I can’t get enough and the title track is the best of the lot
An easier way to say that would have been to say it's a concept album lol
I'm not sure why you don't have more subscribers yet, but I absolutely admire your enthusiasm! Halflifesistah, keep it real girl, as it is very heartfelt! Continue to speak from the heart! And Wolfkain, don't let your experience jade your outlook! You guys are great together and I'm looking forward to more! By the way, look up some of Unleash the Archers live footage. Especially the Dr. Light Productions stuff. Brittany is so amazing live! Good luck, and I hope your channel grows!
Oh my goodnessss :*** Thank you Jamiieee!! (((hugs)) I so appreciate you, beautiful! Thank you for helping me build my youtube community, by supporting and subscribing >_< It means a lot that you wish to see me grow. Wow! Thank you, love.
We will be doing more Power Metal reaction, no doubt, so stay tuned ;) ♥
Don't ever apologize for being passionate, its always amazing to watch.
This was one of the best reactions I've seen. That was so sweet!!!!
Long life to the music!
It's ok Sistah, let him roll his eyes, you don't choose Power Metal. It has chosen you ! love you to Wolf.😍😍😍
One of rhe finest female voices in metal. They also do a great cover of Queen of the Riech by Queensryche.
Great reaction guys love your reaction Sistah 🤘🤘
i can totally relate to Sistah's emotions during the song. Sometimes the emotions well up so intensely with great music your physiology isn't designed to contain or release it properly!
This might be my favorite reaction of this song. It's really awesome seeing something resonate with someone as deeply as it did here
Unleash The Archers is a Canadian 🇨🇦 Metal band from Vancouver!! I’ve seen them live four times now and bought all of their albums, I just love this band! Great reaction video guys! 🤘🏻😆🤘🏻
Their latest album "Apex" is incredible. All killer no filler. Other songs The Matriarch and Apex are great
Also fyi. Youre easy to accept. Just be you and welcome to our dysfunctional metal family.
You are so beautiful :)) Thank you :** ♥
Dysfunctional is a bit of an understatement lol :-)
Epica - essence of silence
With the recent passing of Vinnie Paul (R.I.P. brother!)...it would be interesting to watch you two do a reaction to Damageplan "Moment Of Truth"
Don't worry about calling power metal cheesy. Us fans of power metal know it is and its part of what we love about it.
The killing joke ok😀 Thank you!😘💖
The true core of power metal is that special mix of taking themselves completely seriously while simultaneously not taking themselves seriously AT ALL.. It's cheesy and stupid but it's pure fun and just reveling in the moment.
The best are people that are true masters of their instruments cutting loose and just having a blast, sometimes with the absolute dumbest and over the top premises to the songs and putting their whole hearts into it.
Brittany has actually listed Bruce Dickenson as one of her biggest influences, haha, so it follows that she would sound a little like him
A female Bruce Dickinson is EXACTLY how I imagined it as well. Her vocal range, sustain, and those awesome vibratos are killer!
I love how somone become so emotional by listening a song. I wish we all felt like that about some songs
This is my first time discovering your channel. I love watching people discover power metal and like it. Some people don't like it (and that's OK, we all have our tastes), but it's cheesy ON PURPOSE and we know it's cheesy, but it's also SO POSITIVE and the whole point of power metal is to make the audience feel amazing and happy. Power metal concerts are huge singalongs, you described her wailing as "light and free", we typically describe it as "soaring vocals" because it MAKES YOU SOAR INSIDE YOUR CHEST.
I'm so happy you enjoyed it, sometimes I need calmer music but POWER METAL is the stuff that helps me get through the hard days; it is too happy and jovial for me to feel bad after listening to this genre of music. I will love to check out your other videos because I love your presence on video, and I'm excited to see what other genres you react to because I like exploring outside my own comfort zone.
PS: halflifesistah, I love the color of your outfit. It's my favorite shade of maroon.
Crying right there with you girl! No worries and no shame. Intense music does that to me alot (Jinjer's Perrenial for example) It's very emotionally uplifting. Love your reactions!
Sistah, you have the perfect voice for radio or tv. Really enjoying your videos! :)
If that's something that you would enjoy doing then I would say definitely pursue it! Make yourself a little e-portfolio with different soundbites, hire a good agent (or learn how to be your own agent) and see what happens. :)
So my best friend sent me the original video last week. I instantly replied with 'i loved every single second of that' and it absolutely holds me every time I listen to this song. Fucking beautiful song
fuuuucking hell i would have NEVER EVER expected this kind of a reaction from her. nearly made me cry aswell :D
THIS VIDEO REACTION WAS EVERYTHING. Killer song, them feels!!! 🤘🤘
Of all the ways to stumble onto someone’s channel this has to be the absolute best recommendation ever! So glad to have found you both, can’t wait to dig in to everything. This was great!
Awesome! Thank you!♥
BEST REACTION EVER! You cry with Brittney voice and i am totally with you! Hugs from Brazil!
Sistah's such an emotional creature. Totally adorable and make you want to hug her.
Mickr4 🤗 Thank you 😘💖
Tonight we Ride has her singing HIGHER vocal ranges. If you want to hear Brittany's vocal ranges try to listen to that one, or the drop on General of the Dark Army, she pulls a scream like a banshee. Chilling.
Like the chemistry you two are showing on the reaction, keep up the good work.
I am not ashamed to say that I was moved to tears the first time I heard this. It was refreshing to see a reaction with the same... well, reaction.
Glad I found y'alls channel! Love the way you guys interact.
Sistah that was my reaction the first time I heard UTA! I can't wait to see them live for the first time in Baltimore later this month! You guys are great!
Your appreciation for good music is awesome. Keep it up & I'll keep watching 👍
Speaking of Nightwish, ya'll should do "Ghost Love Score" (an epic of the ages). Big ups!
Live at Wacken!
Agreed, this is an absolute must, if you think you've seen insane lyrics, Floor is on another stratospheric level. The only problem is that there may be a complete emotional meltdown.
With all due respect to Floor and her awesome vocal habilities, when it comes to this song I think that Tarja has the upper hand. Her interpretation is just stellar.
They already did it :D
This is m favorite reaction to this song so far! Absolutely love her response!
😃🤗😘💖✊🏾🤘🏾
First time watching your channel, I loved your reaction to this song, makes me respect this band even more. Thank you, I am subbed and going to explore your past content.
Hey, I found your first comment lol 😄✊🤘
One of my fave songs! I've seen a lot of reactions, by far this is the best one.:) Keep up the awesome work guys.
I appreciate you!😀🤗😘💖
I love their song, "Tonight We Ride" in particular
i loved your reaction and i feel the same way! sometimes music just hits you like nothing else can. a lot of metal is a bit obsessed with darkness, but there's real joy in this song and i think that makes it special.
OH ALSO, whether or not you react to it on the channel you should definitely listen to their song "apex". you'll get the same type of emotions from that one.
Yaaass, baby! This song is so sweet and joyful! Omg >_< ♥
Helloween. keeper of the seven keys!!! Classic power metal
They totally remind me of old Helloween. Those dual guitars - harmonics and the voice. Eagle fly free or Phantoms of death come to mind
Yeah, and Angra - Temple of hate or Hibria - Tiger Punch.
Awesome reaction! I love the fact that you are moved emotionally by music, but of you. I feel like some people don't allow themselves to literally "feel" the music. Winter by Oceans Of Slumber will definitely make you feel emotional, plus it rocks pretty hard. Oceans Of Slumber - Winter
Hi, Sunshine! Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it-- I sure diiid!! ♥ and I agree that some people do not allow themselves the freedom of simply embarrassing themselves.
I'll second the Oceans of Slumber reccomendation
100% third a recommendation for Winter by Oceans of Slumber, they are one of the most powerful bands in metal, and Cammie is probably the best singers in metal right now.
Beautiful reaction, thank you for that! The band has to see your video. 10/10
HalfLifeSistah's reaction is the same kind I had when first hearing UTA! Crying, fanning herself, I did it too, GIRL!!!!
I love Power Metal. Always has great musicianship, killer melodies, and tons of great energy.
Some of my favorite Power Metal bands are Nocturnal Rites, Bloodbound, Almah, Brainstorm, Hammerfall, Excalion, Dream Evil, and Dark Moor
This was an excellent song choice, thanks. I think that you would really enjoy Ne Obliviscaris. They have two vocalists, one sings cleans and plays violin, and the other does growls/harsh vocals. For an initial dive into their music, I would suggest Intra Venus, Eyrie, When Icicles Fall, Triptych Lux(Painters of the Tempest part 2), or Urn(parts 1 and 2).
Not ...And Plague Flowers the Kaleidoscope? I feel like that might be one of the best introductory tracks for them
This is what Power Metal is all about. Infusing the body with all the Power from the music, all the emotions.
Great song and great, great, great Reaction!
Nice to know I'm not the only one that gets emotional listening to uplifting music \m/
Alan B 🤗💖
HLS crying and hubby smiling ahahahha gorgeous!
unleash the archers are the epoc of power metal today. you saw her get teary eyed. it is that good.
I absolutely LOVE her reaction and the way she describes the feelings she got from the song cause that's the way I felt the first time I heard the song :)
🙌🏾😃🤗😙✊🏾🤘🏾💜
You're body just countered pure joy, loved this reaction. I had the same experience with this song
Yes, love. I was moved, no doubt! Thanks for your comment and welcome! ♥
You might want to check out Eluvetie - "Rebirth" as well. You can thank me later.
SargonnasIncarnate 😀💖
Yes! Killer song
Rebirth is amazing! Great song with split female folk metal and male growl vocals.
Eluveitie - Ategnatos. 🖤
i second this. eluvetie is just amazing all around. also "aeterna" and "storm seeker". both awesome folk metal bands
Would love to see a reaction to “Center of the Universe” or “Forever” by Kamelot if your looking for a male power metal voice reaction. Roy Khan is one of my favorite vocalist.
Agreed! There's Roy Khan's live performance of Forever from their Black Halo live concert DVD which has some amazing extra bits - like him singing with the crowd.
@@brandonrichard9568 I believe you're talking about the 2006 concert in Oslo, One Cold Winters Night DVD?
Awesome reaction. I can listen to that song all day.
Never heard someone react so passionately to a song before, was awesome to see. \m/
New subscriber here but I've really enjoyed the vids I've watched so far. It's incredibly moving to watch someone begin their journey into metal music and seeing the moment when they 'get it'. Thank you for sharing your journey with us.
With that said, I do have a request. Disturbed - Sound of Silence. Yes it's a few years old. Yes everyone else has reacted to it. But if Sistah hasn't heard it...well, she needs to.
Thanks guys. Rock on.
Wayne Floyd hi, sunshine! Thanks for the sub-love, baby and welcome aboard! We're ALWAYS taking notes, so stay tuned!🤗😘💖
Next Power metal 'Love it or Hate It' should definitely be "Think Not Forever" by Lost Horizon for traditional, uplifting Power Metal.
The song is deeply optimistic; I think you'd like it.
the absolutely amazing and strong range that her voice has along with the top tier musicianship that this band has
Sistah is such a happy presence that she makes you smile just to watch her reactions. Good to see others enjoy this video that is one of my favorites.
HalfLifeSistah, you are right to feel happy listening to this song! It is about an immortal who has been asleep for 1,000 years and has just been awakened. He is excited and joyous to roam the earth once again! This is a song of new energy and drive! Perfect to listen to when you need a boost!! I'm going to see UTA live in Dallas this month and i'm beyond excited. I'm going to cry the moment her voice touches my ears!!!
love you guys,thank you! !one of my favorite bands!!
DZS joker love YOU!🤗😘💖
Her voice is beautiful, just angelic. These guys are underrated cause people only seem to appreciate pop music nowadays. Songs made by these kinds of bands don’t get the love they deserve.
Hey beautiful! What's the best way to contact you privately? IG, Twitter, FB, or email?
PinkMetalHead hi, sunshine!🤗 you can reach me anywhere, but fb is the quickest response!😘💖
PinkMetalHead fb would be appropriate as I don't know you yet lol
Wes you so Crazy
Hey PMH! I think you should do a reaction with HalfSistah & Wolf on a song together! That would be awesome!
Two awesome metal ladies! ;D
Yo, her reaction is so sweet! XD
Yuriy Gatsko aaawwwe, thank you, love!🤗💖
also sweating 😁 i love her..
Just found this bad yesterday, I had the same reaction as you both did.. LOVE IT!!
I really enjoyed your reaction. You two have incredible chemistry together, and are so refreshing to watch.
HalfLifeSistah, you really feel the music when you listen, which is so purely awesome, and beautifully rare. Wolfkain, I've been in a similar situation with metal when I was in High School. While I always liked pretty much all types of rock and metal, I gravitated towards Swedish Melodic Death Metal for a few years, from the ages 15-18. It was a confusing and very difficult time, and I had a lot of anger, stress, and worries. I would write poetry every day on all sorts of topics and listen to music for hours and hours each day. (I used to also write lyrics for a friend's band). Anyway, bands like In Flames, Dark Tranquillity, Soilwork spoke to me so sonically and lyrically; they created such brutally beautiful music. I was never into hardcore, but the Swedish Melodic Death vocals were different (a more soothing whispering scream you could say), and were so cool when mixed with the occasion clean vocals. It was a place of comfort for me. I saw In Flames in concert at least 4 times, and Dark Tranquillity and Soilwork twice. It's funny, they weren't my top favorite bands because I appreciate clean vocals more than aggressive, but it was just something very special and unique compared to anything else, and man, they kicked ass in concert.
HalfLifeSistah, it's so cool you're opening up to and experiencing more metal music. There's such diversity in the genre (arguably more than any other genre), which I can tell you have already realized. Welcome to the metal community! :) Metal music is more than music, its a way of life and an attitude, and an artful way to drag out the darkness or shed the light on the core of humanity in all its fragility, anger, power, and triumph. With more time, you'll find your favorites.
Oh, and Wolfkain, I like what you said about power metal. Yes, PLEASE, please give it more listens. There's so much to offer. In fact, here's a small list of power metal songs that are pure awesomeness:
"The Headless Game" -Edguy
"Tears of a Mandrake" -Edguy
"Darkened Room" -Black Majesty
"Birth of the Wicked" -Iced Earth
"World Gone Mad" -Jorn
"Fighting the Darkness" -Primal Fear
"Black Rain" -Primal Fear
"Metal Warrior" -Riot V
"Panzerkampf" -Sabaton
"Welcome to the Real" -Thunderstone
"Blind and Frozen" -Beast in Black
You both are killing it. Stay real and keep em' coming. Please consider reacting to at least one of these songs. I think you'll really like them all! :)
-Peace
Music nerds listening to the requests of other music nerds!!! Diggin this!!
^_^//// ♥
Unleash the Archers "Tonight we Ride", way awesome, and you REALLY get to see her vocal range!
I got choked up the first time too. I totally subbed. I love your reaction.
Thank you! Mwah!! ♥
Helloween - Keeper of the Seven Keys :)
Your reaction was amazing! Love it :)
A great power metal band to check out that isn't widely known is Theocracy. A couple songs you could check out are "On Eagles Wings", "I Am", or "Ghost Ship"
I first got into them from another reaction channel. Now I like to see other people react to them lol. Another great song by them, where Brittney Slayes hits even higher notes, is Time Stands Still. Absolutely awesome track.
Flatbedder Chris is love to hear more from them!💖
What a stirring reaction! Awesome.
You make a really good team, and I agree about this band and video -- love it!
Eric Hoffman thank you, sugah!🙌🏾🙃😘💖
I take for granted how amazing metal is. I've quickly fallen in love with this song, but your emotional reaction made me emotional as well. Thank you for reminding me why music drive us all.
Dude! You're reaction to this song is priceless!!!!! Lady, yours was too.....lol...."soulfly IV" is a good one
Allen Rogers thank you so much, sunshine! I'm happy you enjoyed it!💖😘
Before the dawn- deadsong one of my fav songs from this great metal band from Finland
LeakMuscleville Carter thank you for the suggestion, my love!🤗💖
Hey just found your channel and love it. Keep the reactions coming!
Great reaction, guys! I love Unleash the Archers and this album (Apex) is phenomenal in its entirety. Check out "Cleanse the Bloodlines" or the title track next - both are quite epic. Cheers!
For the ultimate, awesome cheesiness : Gloryhammer - The Unicorn Invasion of Dundee. A masterpiece.
Ayreon-The Day That The World Breaks Down and Iced Earth-A Question of Heaven.
Hell yeah. Probably the best band from my province of British Columbia, Canada. \m/
"Unleash the Archers" sound is tight as a bottle cap , awesome 😎🎸🎤😲.... nice n complete review , tanx
Don Omar mmmwwwaaahhh!!😘🤗💖
I am new to your channel and so far really enjoying your reactions as well as the team you both represent. What a beautiful couple you are, and one of only two reaction channels featuring a couple that I've enjoyed. If you want to experience metal that has a balance between clean and growl vocals I would like to suggest Trivium, if you have not heard them already. In particular, the songs Kirisute Gomen and Torn Between Scylla and Charybdis are phenomenal songs and great ways to break into that particular band.
Your freedom of emotion and how music touches your soul is why I LOVE this Channel!!!! Thank you!!
😃🤗🤗🤗😘💜
Why hasn’t wolf have you do reaction to “ONE” by Metallica the video version so you see the story telling? It is very emotional
Isnt it awesome when metal strikes as hard as it did on this reaction? :D :D Best fkn thing in the world.
Wonderful video. I bet you'll enjoy Soilwork - The Windswept Mercy.
Hey , I’m a grown ass man and had the exact same reaction listening to this the first time , while driving , chills the whole song and the chorus is just soooo powerful. Loved the reaction here , is real . Thanks for posting this. Y’all rock
