Hello guys! Thank you so much for recommending me this band! Hope you like the video and don't forget to like, comment and subscribe!!! Lots of love, Jamice
Even though she just did the video I also really love "Circle with Me" one take performance rule of nines one take is one of my favorites good choices shows how powerful and beautiful her voice is live, constance super sad 😥
I love how she released the song. Found a new way to end it on the one take version and proceeds to use that for every live show version they do. Makes me wonder how many other bands have different versions of their songs that I might love more than the studio.
@@michaelpalma6346 oh man I stopped listening to them after Christy left. This is happening I believe is there sophomore album was really good. " taste like Kevin bacon"
I highly recommend the group Bad Omens. The perfect trio of songs for familiarization - Never Know, Dethrone and The Grey. The vocalist's voice is just something incredible. Also any person who gets acquainted with the metal genre is simply obliged to listen Jinjer. Otherwise it is impossible. Pisces, Perennial (Live at Wacken Open Air 2019) and...Who Is Gonna Be The One (Live) or Wallflower.
Spiritbox is the gift that keeps on giving. I love everything they have ever put out. Definitely need to check out the Mara Effect but it HAS to be the one at Silverside Sound. And as a pop singer, I think you would really like We live in a Strange World, The Summit, and Secret garden. Great reaction.
I agree with these totally! The Mara Effect has all of their talents highlighted and so much variation of Courtney’s vocals. I would also add Constance. It has such a beautiful video and no screams.
Straight up one of the most interesting bands I've heard in decades, the musical mesh these folks create is endlessly entertaining and varied. I sold my musical soul to the metal genre many, many years ago, and the emergence of bands like this demonstrates to me the worthiness of this choice.
If this is going to be the format for metal bands, then oh boy, suggestion time!!! Bad Omens - Limits, Dethrone, The Death of Peace of Mind (in that order. Unique band with EXPANSIVE vocals) Memphis May Fire - Death Inside, Make Believe, Only Human (last song has some rapping in it as a treat) Dayseeker - Neon Grave, Drunk (live), either Sleeptalk or Burial Plot (your choice) last but best of all, in my opinion: ERRA - Snowblood, Lunar Halo (not a music video, but a beautiful song), and Vanish Canvas (feat. Courtney here from Spiritbox), also my favorite bridge section in metal music recently.
Nice reaction, I'm ngl, I'm a sucker for reactions of this band right now, but enjoyably done nonetheless! Recommendations: - Secret Garden (pretty song with technical verses and accessible chorus, cleans only) - Holy Roller (heavy but groovy, screams only) My personal favs: - Trust Fall - Everything's Eventual Both are beautiful songs that contain cleans and growls. Last but not least, what might be especially interesting for you as a singer: Courtney's done a few one-take vocal performances. You can watch any of them, but I like her "Rule of Nines" performance the most.
You cant go wrong with Spiritbox. Not a single bad song. Their early stuff is just otherwordly. Courtney's voice is something else 💙 The Mara Effect live at silverside sound and Trust Fall are my fav so obv Im recommending those 2. Also every one take (Rule of Nines, The Beauty of Suffering, Circle With Me) I see a lot of ppl recommend SiriusXM, Im personally not a big fan. I think you should check out their whole dyscography tbh ;) Cute bird btw.
finally someone i agree with completely! trust fall and mara live really are the best. and i agree with siriusxm - courtney's vocals just seem less emotional.
You'd probably like "Trust Fall" quite a bit. It's mostly singing and I think it's her best vocal performance on a song. Very pop-oriented. Slave (live) by the band Leprous is also a good place to start with them
great reactions, Courtney has a great voice! If you're wanting more great female fronted metal with good clean AND harsh vocals, you're in for a treat! Tatiana from Jinjer, Alyssa White-Gulz from Arch Enemy, and Melissa Bonny from Ad Infinitum and Dark Side Of The Moon are all great singers with excellent harsh AND cleans.
You MUST check out Courtney's live one take of Circle With Me. She does this scream to singing back to screaming transition at the end of the song that isn't in the studio version that just absolutely floors me every time I hear it. Seriously gives me goosebumps. You gotta hear it for yourself, I promise you will be beyond captivated.
There has been a superb upsurge in female vocals exploring all genres of metal and bringing some fresh sounds, for example check out the singer Melissa Bonny, she is a singer in multiple bands, she has an amazing GoT cover of Jenny of Oldstones with the band Dark Side of the Moon czcams.com/video/uO4qhtGij_0/video.html&ab_channel=NapalmRecords. A collaboration with the former Delain singer Charlotte Wessels again with Dark Side of the Moon of the LotR cover May it Be czcams.com/video/UbbzVj8xYLE/video.html&ab_channel=NapalmRecords, both are amazing songs. Finally probably her 'main' band, or at least the one which catapulted her into wider listening, Ad Infinitum and the song Marching on Versailles czcams.com/video/9Ugq3ZBNEIM/video.html&ab_channel=NapalmRecords. And this is not touching on some of the other absolute first class female vocalists in the metal genre Floor Jansen formerly After Forever and ReVamp, now Nightwish (the first Nightwish vocalist Tarja Turunen is also real special) and solo work, Simone Simmons of Epica, Tatiana Shmayluk of Jinjer, either Angela Gossow (former) or Alissa White-Gluz (current) of Arch Enemy, Sharon den Adel of Within Temptation, Marion Bascoul of Aephanemer (warning this is real heavy Melo-Death Metal), Fabienne Erni (current) or Anna Murphy (former) on some songs with the Folk Metal band Eluveitie, Lena Scissorhands of Infected Rain, the aforementioned Charlotte Wessels formerly of the band Delain, now freelance I think. I'm missing more, bands like Agonist's new singer (Alissa White-Gluz's old band) and the singer of the band Vintersea both have superb female vocalists, I'm sure others can help me out. Tatiana Shmayluk (almost any Jinjer song but my favourites are live videos of Who is Going to be the One and Perennial), Alissa White-Gluz (Arch-Enemies Handshake from Hell or the old Agonist song Panophobia) and Floor Jansen (try the old ReVamp songs Wild Card or Disdain) are all notable for incredible talent in switching out harsh and melodic vocals. You keep reacting to this material and I'll be on board all damn day.
Definitely need a part 2. These 3 songs were definitely on the heavy end of their spectrum. I have to recommend Trust Fall, Constance, and Blessed Be. Enjoying these reactions!!
You should check out ERRA. Their a little like architects but their very technical and they have some beautiful songs like nigh to silence, shadow autonomous, and vanish canvas with Courtney from spiritbox. Think you'd really dig em
You might wanna check out their earlier stuff as well, "The Mara Effect Pt. 3" for example. Very different with more of a progressive metal vibe. Loving the videos you're putting out! By the way there is a loud cracking noise in your video at 1:35 and 6:26 just so you know, should be fixable by having the audio fade in quickly
Fun reaction. A good basic overview of a common technique that is probably what Tatiana uses is in The Fairy Voice Mother's reaction to Pisces. I feel like Courtney may use some other techniques as well. Both Tatiana and Courtney have interview videos in Loudwire's "How ___ Learned To Scream" series, and there is an long and in-depth interview with Tatiana on the Charismatic Voice channel.
Spiritbox are amazing. You must also listen to Jinjer and their amazing singer Tatiana who is great on both clean singing and growls. Try Pisces. That song has several hundreds of reactions! Also Arch Enemy and Vintersea has great female vocals.
screaming just works so well with distorted guitars. That's just the nature of the beast =) So happy to see your smiling face during reaction :D Please check out their songs Constance or Blessed be or The Summit!
Gotta check out Holy Roller, Blessed Be, and Rule of Nines for another damn good trio of songs from this band. Just saw them on tour with Underoath. They put on a great show. Just wish they had more time so I am looking forward to them having a headlining tour in the future. Another great band with a female vocalist that switches between clean and harsh vocals to check out would be Jinjer.
Really nice reaction, good song choice, but more importantly, that is one adorable Bird you have there. Give him/her some head scratches from me once please :) Regarding other Spiritbox Songs I think the live one take sessions of Circle with me and Rules of Nine are really impressive, and I personally love the song Sun Killer of them.
Spiritbox is one of the greatest new bands, their sound is unlike anything else out there, Courtney Laplante is definitely an amazing Vocalist, Constance is a great slower sad song, Blessed Be has amazing lyrics, The Mara Effect is also phenomenal from their older stuff, but really you can't go wrong with any of their songs.
Really enjoyed your reaction. Spiritbox is a phenomenal band and courtney is my favorite female vocalist of all time. Most people act the same way when they hear her voice for the first time. 😊🤘
There are alot of very talented woman in Metal. Courtney has a beautiful voice and growl. As does Tatiana from Jinjer. Then there are woman like Floor Jansen who just maybe the best voice in all of metal. From Growls to Operetic Shes one of the amazing Dutch metal queens. Floor Jansen (Nightwish). Simone Simons (Epica) Sharon Den Adel(Within Tempation) Anneke van Giersbergen (X- The Gathering) Charlotte Wessels(x-Delain) and theres even more. If you want to blown away by beautiful vocals start with Floor, Nightwish I Ghost Love Score live at Wacken 2013
This comment is not made in disrespect of Floor. Still need to see more growls from her to see how good they are. It's a bit like saying, if anyone can sing clean, they can sing like floor. Growls can spand just as much as cleans and I hasn't seen anything from Floor that set her in the Elite in Growls...Her Cleans is another thing thou, she a goddess that can bring tears to the Toughest of men.
I am flabbergasted that you didn't mention Unleash the Archers. Also Floor isn't the best voice in metal, she is way better. She is far above all pop singers and most classical and opera singers as well.
I mean, you should've mentioned BAND-MAID as well. Listen to her vocals on Blooming. When does she breathe? It might not be as metal, but it is certainly hard rock and some of their songs are definitely metal.
I think you should react to Red Handed Denial next. Their Vocalist Lauren Babic does the exact same thing Courtney does and you can always find deep meanings behind the lyrics of their songs
Spiritbox blends heavy metal with modern day pop extremely well. Their choruses and melodies follow many patterns pop utilizes. It's catchy, very simple root notes throughout the chorus but very technical guitar parts. It's a perfect blend for a die hard metal fan to love yet the roots are easy enough for a newcomer to grasp onto.
Great reactions! Loved your face when you saw the skin peeling in "Hurt You" haha! Definitely check out Future Palace next! Some tracks to check out - "Paradise", "Heads Up", "Flames", "Defeating Gravity", and "World in Tears".
Haha first found your channel because of your reaction to BTS and now Spiritbox! I would love to see you react to a Japanese band called "the gazettE" -- I really like their music so much but my excitement feels bottled because I don't see a lot of people react to them! If you're to listen to 3 of their songs, the 3 I would recommend you listen to would be: (1) Falling, (2) Blinding Hope, (3) Sono Koe Wa Moroku (so you can hear some contrast hehe). I'd recommend looking for the live video of those songs, too, because I want your first experience of them to be a recording of their live and not the official audio track!
Fantastic reaction Jami. I absolutely love Spiritbox. We get good value from your channel. It's a great idea reacting to three songs at once. I'd like to recommend Vintersea and Lutharo and for excellent clean singing in a metal band, Unleash the Archers. Cheers from Australia.
What a great reaction, subscribing for sure. This whole album is wonderful, every song hits in a different way. As much as I love spiritbox, I am more of a Jinjer Fan. PLease check them out too. God Bless
the subreddit r/partyparot over on reddit would love your lil birb. I know I did. Also, I completely understand your stance on the unclean vocals. It took time for me to warm up to them as well. What made me truly appreciate them is just how difficult they are to do and take just as much time learning and mastering as clean vocals. If you are willing, definitely give Will Ramos a listen if you want to see a wild presentation on what unclean vocals can sound like when mastered. I love Spiritbox, and Courtney LaPlante is truly one of the best vocalists in metal right now. Will Ramos is also up there, and he is the newest vocalist for the band Lorna Shore. Now, if you take this into consideration, I will give you full disclosure that Lorna Shore is proper death metal. Super heavy, and honestly might not be up your alley. However, with that being said, if you can appreciate talented vocalists, Will Ramos straight up sounds like a little gremlin/demon in their song "Into the Hellfire". Honestly, that type of stuff isn't what I normally listen to either, but holy cow was I impressed with just how brutal and raw his vocals are on that track. He even did a live 1 take of it so you can listen to him do it in real time, without post processing effects, and I promise that it sounds just as good live, the only difference between the live 1 take, and the recorded track is he did some vocal layering. Other than that, it's as pure as you can get. I really enjoyed this reaction. I've been bumping Spiritbox for a long while now, since early last year at least. Love everything the band has put out. Keep going down the metal rabbit hole! There is stuff out there for everyone!
Would like to see your reaction to both the official Constance video, and the other version with string accompaniment. Also, have you heard their Rotoscope EP?
The best thing about Spiritbox is that almost no two songs sounds anything alike, yet they are all distinguishably them. They don’t get locked into a si gle subgenre of metal, and explore everything from more radio friendly, progressive, and even deathcore(ish). Definitely check out their earlier stuff. They did a full band live version of The Mara Effect (which is 3 seperate songs and an interlude), and it is breathtakingly great.
spiritbox is one of my all time fave bands and i’m so glad you enjoyed them! if you want something heavy definitely check out Holy Roller. a must would be Rule of Nines (the live one take vocal performance courtney did.) if you feel like crying and seeing a softer side to the band I recommend Constance. and Blessed be is an incredible song with a cool video.
Bad Omens🔥 Glass Houses, Limits, The Death Of Peace Of Mind (in that order) could toss in Dethrone and Like a Villain too. Noahs vocals are 🤌🤌 Also Dayseeker. Anything off Sleeptalk album (lets be honest every song is amazing on that album) but specifically, Sleeptalk, Burial Plot, and their newest Single Neon Grave. Rory is imo the best clean vocalist in the genre 🔥
Part 2! :) I like all of Spiritbox's songs but Trust Fall is my favorite. It's one of their older songs and doesn't get as much attention as songs like Circle With Me and Holy Roller, but I think it's incredible.
Hey Jami, love this video! You should also check out a band called Point North, especially the songs “Ghost in my home”, “Stitch me up”, and “Erase You”. I think you would really enjoy those songs.
If you do a Part 2 of this band, check out the One-Take performance of Circle With Me. It's amazing how well Courtney LaPlante transitions between her singing and screaming. It could even be better than the studio version.
Loved your Reaction! Eternal Blue is a Masterpiece and the Title Track is Amazing! 😄 I also highly recommend Nightwish and Epica! Two other Bands with Female Fronted Singers. Floor of Nightwish and Simone of Epica ❤️🤘
Other songs by Spiritbox that are a must to react too are Blessed Be , Secret Garden, Sun Killer , The Summit, Constants.. If you like Spiritbox theses bands you definitely will like and need to react too Wage War - Circle The Drain I Pervail - Bow Down Dorothy- Black Sheep , Rest In Peace Nothing More - Jenny , Go To War , Fade In/Fade out DED - Anti Everything Bury Tomorrow - Man On Fire Bad Wolves - Remember When The Pretty Reckless - And So It Went Just to name a few we definitely need a part 2 of Spiritbox.
This band has outstanding videos. The emo SciFi/horror feel of a lot of them is not that surprising as the band is from Vancouver BC, Canada. Which does a huge percentage of the world's SciFi & fantasy production. Their fellow Vancouverites Unleash The Archers also have some pretty cool videos, and you should check them out. Another superpowers vocalist though more conventional rock opera voice.
Great reaction i love that and please next time i recommended your reaction female rock band from Indonesia VOB VOICE OF BACEPROT title song NOT PUBLIC PROPERTY MV or song KILLING IN THE NAME cover by RAGE AGAINT THE MACHINE live performance in Rennes France 2021..i love your reaction.. ❤️
well i guess nightwish ws recommended a ton already because flor jansen also can do the growling she is the most trending singer atm. Also Britney Slayes from unleash the archers is a gem
This is my favorite band of all time. I have an eternal blue Hoodie that I wear almost 24/7 and I have their eternal blue album on special edition vinyl that I treasure more than anything I own.
If your after suggestions for more Female fronted extreme vocal style bands I can suggest. Jinjer, Arch Enemy, MergingMoon, Butcher Babies (dual singers). And there are tons more out there.
From Spiritbox you must react to Constance, Blessed Be and Holly Roler. Another great band with a great vocalist is Jinjer. Check out Pices live session and Perennial live.
There are literally too many awesome bands with great vocalists to recommend at once but... "Tesseract" "Monuments" & "Nothing More" are 3 that spring to mind immediately. Tesseract is more on the trippy/ethereal progressive metal side of things, very groovy, ambient stuff. Monuments has some similar elements but with more of that modern metal aggression thrown in & a big emphasis on percussive techniques in the guitars especially, but even with the vocals too in some cases. Nothing More on the other hand is simply a great modern rock band with a lot of great lyrics & some very emotional stuff too at times. 🤘👍😁
You should check out her live vocal one takes. Rules of nine live one take and circle with me live one take. I personally like her live one takes and videos of their live performances more than the studio versions. They kill it live. Also, you should check out thier song called "trust fall". Great clean vocals
Another great Canadian female metal vocalist is Alisa White-Gluz. She currently fronts the band "Arch Enemy." The first time I heard her, she was doing her thing with the band "The Agonist." Any of her stuff will be clean and harsh. I'm most impressed with her harsh vocals because, as a person, she is quite short and small, but her voice is HUGE!
Ok you HAVE to react to the band Leprous and their song The Sky Is A Red. They're a Norwegian Progressive Metal band. You will absolutely LOVE their singer Einar Sølberg. You do not wanna miss out on this lol
I watched Spirit box live the other day in San Francisco, and I was so excited, the concert was for Underoath but I was really just there to see Spiritbox. And I'm really sad to say that all of the opening bands, stray from the path, bad omens, and Underoath, the headliner, all sounded a lot better live and had way better audio quality. I mean I love Spirit box I've listened to them more than probably any other band in my circulation. But for some reason I just could not hear Courtney live like at all unless she was screaming but when she was singing it was so low in the mix it was basically inaudible, I couldn't tell if it was like a sound engineering issue, or if she just sang really quietly on the softer parts and it got drown out by the rest of the instruments, I mean it was still awesome seeing them but the main thing that was killing me was zev's snare drum was tuned and mic'd in such a way, that it was like obnoxiously loud and I can feel my brain rattling. It just wasn't a good tone there was something going on I don't know. I still stocked up on merch because I absolutely love them, but hopefully I get a chance to go to another show in the future.
Aside from Circle With Me tbh the other songs weren't the most memorable ones from them! I'd recommend going with Blessed Be and Constance. I am sure you'll love them.
Definitely should do The Mara Effect live at Silverside Sound. If you really want to hear some of the best performances of their songs then the SiriusXM Live Show will give you that. 6 varied songs broken into 3 videos. You will find way more appreciation after these 2 suggestions.
You need to check out the band she played in years ago which was Iwrestledabearonce they were more melodic and harder. Unfortunately the band went on hiatus. Listen to constance it's based on her grandma dealing with dementia and another band member as well same is why they made the video. It's a softer song but it still hits good.
Part two would be great. Constance, Holy Roller, and Rule of Nines (one take performance) would be a great mix of Courtney's range.
That is EXACTLY what i thought MUST be the line up for a second video. HA
Even though she just did the video I also really love "Circle with Me" one take performance rule of nines one take is one of my favorites good choices shows how powerful and beautiful her voice is live, constance super sad 😥
She should squeeze Blessed Be in as well. It's my personal favorite and a very good song
All of the songs in this thread are a must!
Constance is still my all time best
circle with me live one take is one of the most incredible performances I've ever seen
I love how she released the song. Found a new way to end it on the one take version and proceeds to use that for every live show version they do. Makes me wonder how many other bands have different versions of their songs that I might love more than the studio.
I 2nd this. As well as the One Takes of Rule of Nines and Holy Roller.
Courtney and Tatiana from Jinjer are absolutely amazing vocalists. 2 best metal female vocalists in my opinion.
Yukina from Hanabie.
Dont forget courtney was the lead singer of iwabo years back.
@@playstationfamnation5286 I never listened to that band so I keep forgetting that
It may be a different kind of "metal", but I'd include Floor Jansen in that vocalist mix.
@@michaelpalma6346 oh man I stopped listening to them after Christy left. This is happening I believe is there sophomore album was really good. " taste like Kevin bacon"
Spiritbox was a huge breakout band in 2020. They have amazing range of songs from heavy to lite.
I highly recommend the group Bad Omens. The perfect trio of songs for familiarization - Never Know, Dethrone and The Grey. The vocalist's voice is just something incredible.
Also any person who gets acquainted with the metal genre is simply obliged to listen Jinjer. Otherwise it is impossible. Pisces, Perennial (Live at Wacken Open Air 2019) and...Who Is Gonna Be The One (Live) or Wallflower.
Hey, I saw Spiritbox and Bad Omens together live just a few weeks ago. Fun show!
Spiritbox is the gift that keeps on giving. I love everything they have ever put out. Definitely need to check out the Mara Effect but it HAS to be the one at Silverside Sound. And as a pop singer, I think you would really like We live in a Strange World, The Summit, and Secret garden. Great reaction.
I second everything Josh said.
The Summit is still my favorite from the album along with Sun Killer... Damn those 2 songs hit so fucking hard
I agree with these totally! The Mara Effect has all of their talents highlighted and so much variation of Courtney’s vocals. I would also add Constance. It has such a beautiful video and no screams.
Straight up one of the most interesting bands I've heard in decades, the musical mesh these folks create is endlessly entertaining and varied. I sold my musical soul to the metal genre many, many years ago, and the emergence of bands like this demonstrates to me the worthiness of this choice.
If this is going to be the format for metal bands, then oh boy, suggestion time!!!
Bad Omens - Limits, Dethrone, The Death of Peace of Mind (in that order. Unique band with EXPANSIVE vocals)
Memphis May Fire - Death Inside, Make Believe, Only Human (last song has some rapping in it as a treat)
Dayseeker - Neon Grave, Drunk (live), either Sleeptalk or Burial Plot (your choice)
last but best of all, in my opinion:
ERRA - Snowblood, Lunar Halo (not a music video, but a beautiful song), and Vanish Canvas (feat. Courtney here from Spiritbox), also my favorite bridge section in metal music recently.
I second Bad Omens 🔥
Bad Omens and Dayseeker! I second this!
Bad omens- Limits I definitely agree it's a must
You forgot like a villain
The grey
Nice reaction, I'm ngl, I'm a sucker for reactions of this band right now, but enjoyably done nonetheless!
Recommendations:
- Secret Garden (pretty song with technical verses and accessible chorus, cleans only)
- Holy Roller (heavy but groovy, screams only)
My personal favs:
- Trust Fall
- Everything's Eventual
Both are beautiful songs that contain cleans and growls.
Last but not least, what might be especially interesting for you as a singer:
Courtney's done a few one-take vocal performances. You can watch any of them, but I like her "Rule of Nines" performance the most.
Agreed especially with the one-take videos. The one-take of Circle With Me is my fav version.
The only thing better than "Hurt You"
is going right into "Yellowjacket"
the transition is flawless!
You cant go wrong with Spiritbox. Not a single bad song. Their early stuff is just otherwordly.
Courtney's voice is something else 💙
The Mara Effect live at silverside sound and Trust Fall are my fav so obv Im recommending those 2.
Also every one take (Rule of Nines, The Beauty of Suffering, Circle With Me)
I see a lot of ppl recommend SiriusXM, Im personally not a big fan.
I think you should check out their whole dyscography tbh ;)
Cute bird btw.
finally someone i agree with completely! trust fall and mara live really are the best. and i agree with siriusxm - courtney's vocals just seem less emotional.

“Is that really her voice”…
Oh man, she hasn’t done Jinjer yet has she. Hahaha. Tatiana is about to blow her MIND.
Spiritbox are amazing. You must also listen to Jinjer and their amazing singer Tatiana who is great on both clean singing and growls. Try Pisces. That song has several hundreds of reactions! Also Arch Enemy and Vintersea has great female vocals.
Your adorable birdie stole the show! Biting your finger just as the heavy finale started!! Metalhead in training!!
screaming just works so well with distorted guitars. That's just the nature of the beast =) So happy to see your smiling face during reaction :D
Please check out their songs Constance or Blessed be or The Summit!
Gotta check out Holy Roller, Blessed Be, and Rule of Nines for another damn good trio of songs from this band. Just saw them on tour with Underoath. They put on a great show. Just wish they had more time so I am looking forward to them having a headlining tour in the future.
Another great band with a female vocalist that switches between clean and harsh vocals to check out would be Jinjer.
Really nice reaction, good song choice, but more importantly, that is one adorable Bird you have there. Give him/her some head scratches from me once please :)
Regarding other Spiritbox Songs I think the live one take sessions of Circle with me and Rules of Nine are really impressive, and I personally love the song Sun Killer of them.
Jinjer - Pisces will blow you away
I highly recommend reacting to the vocal one take of Circle With Me. Really any of their one take versions.
Spiritbox is one of the greatest new bands, their sound is unlike anything else out there, Courtney Laplante is definitely an amazing Vocalist, Constance is a great slower sad song, Blessed Be has amazing lyrics, The Mara Effect is also phenomenal from their older stuff, but really you can't go wrong with any of their songs.
Really enjoyed your reaction. Spiritbox is a phenomenal band and courtney is my favorite female vocalist of all time. Most people act the same way when they hear her voice for the first time. 😊🤘
Rule of Nines is not only my favorite song of theirs it's the first song on my playlist.
Please react to Jinjer-Vortex (another great female vocalists)
Jinjer has got to be the obvious next react
Pisces, Wallflower, Homeback…probably a good mix for you
There are alot of very talented woman in Metal. Courtney has a beautiful voice and growl. As does Tatiana from Jinjer. Then there are woman like Floor Jansen who just maybe the best voice in all of metal. From Growls to Operetic Shes one of the amazing Dutch metal queens. Floor Jansen (Nightwish). Simone Simons (Epica) Sharon Den Adel(Within Tempation) Anneke van Giersbergen (X- The Gathering) Charlotte Wessels(x-Delain) and theres even more. If you want to blown away by beautiful vocals start with Floor, Nightwish I Ghost Love Score live at Wacken 2013
This comment is not made in disrespect of Floor. Still need to see more growls from her to see how good they are. It's a bit like saying, if anyone can sing clean, they can sing like floor. Growls can spand just as much as cleans and I hasn't seen anything from Floor that set her in the Elite in Growls...Her Cleans is another thing thou, she a goddess that can bring tears to the Toughest of men.
@@frankhermansen243 ReVamp, Nightwish, and guest appearence with Soilwerk is a pretty good barometer if you ask me.
I am flabbergasted that you didn't mention Unleash the Archers. Also Floor isn't the best voice in metal, she is way better. She is far above all pop singers and most classical and opera singers as well.
I mean, you should've mentioned BAND-MAID as well. Listen to her vocals on Blooming. When does she breathe? It might not be as metal, but it is certainly hard rock and some of their songs are definitely metal.
@@vhaarr Yes i forgot UTA. Yes Britt is amazing. And no theres nobody better then Floor Jansen currently. Shes the whole package.
most genuine music reactions on youtube. end of story
I think you should react to Red Handed Denial next. Their Vocalist Lauren Babic does the exact same thing Courtney does and you can always find deep meanings behind the lyrics of their songs
Spiritbox blends heavy metal with modern day pop extremely well. Their choruses and melodies follow many patterns pop utilizes. It's catchy, very simple root notes throughout the chorus but very technical guitar parts. It's a perfect blend for a die hard metal fan to love yet the roots are easy enough for a newcomer to grasp onto.
Great reactions! Loved your face when you saw the skin peeling in "Hurt You" haha! Definitely check out Future Palace next! Some tracks to check out - "Paradise", "Heads Up", "Flames", "Defeating Gravity", and "World in Tears".
Haha first found your channel because of your reaction to BTS and now Spiritbox! I would love to see you react to a Japanese band called "the gazettE" -- I really like their music so much but my excitement feels bottled because I don't see a lot of people react to them! If you're to listen to 3 of their songs, the 3 I would recommend you listen to would be: (1) Falling, (2) Blinding Hope, (3) Sono Koe Wa Moroku (so you can hear some contrast hehe). I'd recommend looking for the live video of those songs, too, because I want your first experience of them to be a recording of their live and not the official audio track!
Fantastic reaction Jami. I absolutely love Spiritbox. We get good value from your channel. It's a great idea reacting to three songs at once. I'd like to recommend Vintersea and Lutharo and for excellent clean singing in a metal band, Unleash the Archers. Cheers from Australia.
Metal vocalists are just next level.
If you haven't already definitely check out Blessed Be. One of my favorite Spiritbox songs
Cutie birdie! This alone is worth a thumbs up!
What a great reaction, subscribing for sure. This whole album is wonderful, every song hits in a different way.
As much as I love spiritbox, I am more of a Jinjer Fan. PLease check them out too.
God Bless
DO THE WHOLE FREAKING SPIRITBOX COLLECTION! THEY DONT MISS!!!
the subreddit r/partyparot over on reddit would love your lil birb. I know I did.
Also, I completely understand your stance on the unclean vocals. It took time for me to warm up to them as well. What made me truly appreciate them is just how difficult they are to do and take just as much time learning and mastering as clean vocals. If you are willing, definitely give Will Ramos a listen if you want to see a wild presentation on what unclean vocals can sound like when mastered. I love Spiritbox, and Courtney LaPlante is truly one of the best vocalists in metal right now. Will Ramos is also up there, and he is the newest vocalist for the band Lorna Shore. Now, if you take this into consideration, I will give you full disclosure that Lorna Shore is proper death metal. Super heavy, and honestly might not be up your alley. However, with that being said, if you can appreciate talented vocalists, Will Ramos straight up sounds like a little gremlin/demon in their song "Into the Hellfire". Honestly, that type of stuff isn't what I normally listen to either, but holy cow was I impressed with just how brutal and raw his vocals are on that track. He even did a live 1 take of it so you can listen to him do it in real time, without post processing effects, and I promise that it sounds just as good live, the only difference between the live 1 take, and the recorded track is he did some vocal layering. Other than that, it's as pure as you can get. I really enjoyed this reaction. I've been bumping Spiritbox for a long while now, since early last year at least. Love everything the band has put out. Keep going down the metal rabbit hole! There is stuff out there for everyone!
Would like to see your reaction to both the official Constance video,
and the other version with string accompaniment.
Also, have you heard their Rotoscope EP?
It would be fantastic if you’d react to Sleep Token! The vocalist is absolutely stunning.
The best thing about Spiritbox is that almost no two songs sounds anything alike, yet they are all distinguishably them. They don’t get locked into a si gle subgenre of metal, and explore everything from more radio friendly, progressive, and even deathcore(ish).
Definitely check out their earlier stuff. They did a full band live version of The Mara Effect (which is 3 seperate songs and an interlude), and it is breathtakingly great.
Camera's aside...you had me at "Hello everybody, welcome back".....................But I want a part 2!!
spiritbox is one of my all time fave bands and i’m so glad you enjoyed them! if you want something heavy definitely check out Holy Roller. a must would be Rule of Nines (the live one take vocal performance courtney did.) if you feel like crying and seeing a softer side to the band I recommend Constance. and Blessed be is an incredible song with a cool video.
Hej great reaction. I am curious what will You say when You try listening to Jinjer. I recomand this band specjialy for You. Pisces for beggining
You definitely need to watch their live performances.
For the extremes of this band, check out "Holy Roller" and "Constance". Might want to have a few tissues on hand for "Constance".
Bad Omens🔥 Glass Houses, Limits, The Death Of Peace Of Mind (in that order) could toss in Dethrone and Like a Villain too. Noahs vocals are 🤌🤌
Also Dayseeker. Anything off Sleeptalk album (lets be honest every song is amazing on that album) but specifically, Sleeptalk, Burial Plot, and their newest Single Neon Grave. Rory is imo the best clean vocalist in the genre 🔥
Spiritbox is my favorite metal band right now and Courtney she is the best, her vocals are amazing, amazing reaction so nice lml
Love the video! Love the bird even more. 🐦❤️
12:05 i could swear your bird went with the Rhythm for a moment there😅
Love your conure!!! I have a green cheek and a pineapple green cheek, love them to death :) Great reaction!
The headbanging bird was so cute omg hahahahaha
Part 2! :) I like all of Spiritbox's songs but Trust Fall is my favorite. It's one of their older songs and doesn't get as much attention as songs like Circle With Me and Holy Roller, but I think it's incredible.
You need to check out her 1 take studio performances they are incredible
Not a lot of couples in bands, but Spiritbox, Timoratus, Jucifer, Straight Line Stitch, and rock band White Stripes are the only ones I know of.
Hey Jami, love this video! You should also check out a band called Point North, especially the songs “Ghost in my home”, “Stitch me up”, and “Erase You”. I think you would really enjoy those songs.
If you do a Part 2 of this band, check out the One-Take performance of Circle With Me. It's amazing how well Courtney LaPlante transitions between her singing and screaming. It could even be better than the studio version.
Such awesome first picks! I love Spiritbox so much 🤘 and rest assured it's just Courtney singing, she has an amazing singing and screaming voice!
Loved your Reaction! Eternal Blue is a Masterpiece and the Title Track is Amazing! 😄
I also highly recommend Nightwish and Epica! Two other Bands with Female Fronted Singers. Floor of Nightwish and Simone of Epica ❤️🤘
Other songs by Spiritbox that are a must to react too are Blessed Be , Secret Garden, Sun Killer , The Summit, Constants..
If you like Spiritbox theses bands you definitely will like and need to react too
Wage War - Circle The Drain
I Pervail - Bow Down
Dorothy- Black Sheep , Rest In Peace
Nothing More - Jenny , Go To War , Fade In/Fade out
DED - Anti Everything
Bury Tomorrow - Man On Fire
Bad Wolves - Remember When
The Pretty Reckless - And So It Went
Just to name a few we definitely need a part 2 of Spiritbox.
Yeah Spiritbox is different. Super awesome.
constance, secret garden, bleach bath, belcarra, blessed be. And the list goes on of great songs
Welcome Down the rabbit hole …..when your finished with your spirit box trip buy a ticket for the jinjer train lol
This band has outstanding videos. The emo SciFi/horror feel of a lot of them is not that surprising as the band is from Vancouver BC, Canada. Which does a huge percentage of the world's SciFi & fantasy production.
Their fellow Vancouverites Unleash The Archers also have some pretty cool videos, and you should check them out. Another superpowers vocalist though more conventional rock opera voice.
Great reaction i love that and please next time i recommended your reaction female rock band from Indonesia VOB VOICE OF BACEPROT title song NOT PUBLIC PROPERTY MV or song KILLING IN THE NAME cover by RAGE AGAINT THE MACHINE live performance in Rennes France 2021..i love your reaction.. ❤️
More!
check out:
Bleach Bath,
Rule of Nines,
Sun Killer,
Mara Effect pt1.
well i guess nightwish ws recommended a ton already because flor jansen also can do the growling she is the most trending singer atm. Also Britney Slayes from unleash the archers is a gem
This is my favorite band of all time. I have an eternal blue Hoodie that I wear almost 24/7 and I have their eternal blue album on special edition vinyl that I treasure more than anything I own.
My favorite band 😍🤘
You should check out the one take performances Courtney does of this song and others and you can see her voice in action live.
If your after suggestions for more Female fronted extreme vocal style bands I can suggest. Jinjer, Arch Enemy, MergingMoon, Butcher Babies (dual singers). And there are tons more out there.
Part two needs to include “Constance “ blessed be” and “holy roller”
Courtney Laplante also fronted “iwrestledabearonce” may wanna check it out
Definitely check out "Blessed Be" and "Constance" by them! Those would be right up your alley!
You would love Jinjer.
From Spiritbox you must react to Constance, Blessed Be and Holly Roler. Another great band with a great vocalist is Jinjer. Check out Pices live session and Perennial live.
There are literally too many awesome bands with great vocalists to recommend at once but...
"Tesseract" "Monuments" & "Nothing More" are 3 that spring to mind immediately.
Tesseract is more on the trippy/ethereal progressive metal side of things, very groovy, ambient stuff.
Monuments has some similar elements but with more of that modern metal aggression thrown in & a big emphasis on percussive techniques in the guitars especially, but even with the vocals too in some cases.
Nothing More on the other hand is simply a great modern rock band with a lot of great lyrics & some very emotional stuff too at times. 🤘👍😁
Don’t forget Bleach Bath!!! So underrated!! It has a video as well!
You should check out her live vocal one takes. Rules of nine live one take and circle with me live one take. I personally like her live one takes and videos of their live performances more than the studio versions. They kill it live. Also, you should check out thier song called "trust fall". Great clean vocals
Great reaction! Here is my comment for the algorithm. :)
You should do CONSTANCE and THE SUMMIT from the Eternal Blue release. Actually I like the whole album. It's more diverse than some would expect.
The mara effect live at silverside which is all 3 parts together
Another great Canadian female metal vocalist is Alisa White-Gluz. She currently fronts the band "Arch Enemy." The first time I heard her, she was doing her thing with the band "The Agonist." Any of her stuff will be clean and harsh. I'm most impressed with her harsh vocals because, as a person, she is quite short and small, but her voice is HUGE!
Ok you HAVE to react to the band Leprous and their song The Sky Is A Red. They're a Norwegian Progressive Metal band. You will absolutely LOVE their singer Einar Sølberg. You do not wanna miss out on this lol
Constance is a must ....I know you will enjoy it
I watched Spirit box live the other day in San Francisco, and I was so excited, the concert was for Underoath but I was really just there to see Spiritbox. And I'm really sad to say that all of the opening bands, stray from the path, bad omens, and Underoath, the headliner, all sounded a lot better live and had way better audio quality. I mean I love Spirit box I've listened to them more than probably any other band in my circulation. But for some reason I just could not hear Courtney live like at all unless she was screaming but when she was singing it was so low in the mix it was basically inaudible, I couldn't tell if it was like a sound engineering issue, or if she just sang really quietly on the softer parts and it got drown out by the rest of the instruments, I mean it was still awesome seeing them but the main thing that was killing me was zev's snare drum was tuned and mic'd in such a way, that it was like obnoxiously loud and I can feel my brain rattling. It just wasn't a good tone there was something going on I don't know. I still stocked up on merch because I absolutely love them, but hopefully I get a chance to go to another show in the future.
Aside from Circle With Me tbh the other songs weren't the most memorable ones from them! I'd recommend going with Blessed Be and Constance. I am sure you'll love them.
Nobody ever mentions Blessed Be! That’s imo their best song!
Definitely should do The Mara Effect live at Silverside Sound.
If you really want to hear some of the best performances of their songs then the SiriusXM Live Show will give you that. 6 varied songs broken into 3 videos.
You will find way more appreciation after these 2 suggestions.
Definitely do their Sirius xm live stuff that was suggested. Awesome to see so many exposed to this style. Do you Jinjer???
Sirius xm live is a better performance than the silverside session.
You need to check out the band she played in years ago which was Iwrestledabearonce they were more melodic and harder. Unfortunately the band went on hiatus. Listen to constance it's based on her grandma dealing with dementia and another band member as well same is why they made the video. It's a softer song but it still hits good.
Your parrot is beautiful!
You actually did it!!! Nice reaction.
Yea if you like this check out Jinjer/Pisces live session
jinjer is amazing
