- You all know how much I love a cappella music. You all know how much I love metal music. But what about metal a cappella? I mean, YES! I'm visiting Van Canto again to bear witness to the vocal amalgamation recreating Amon Amarth's hit "Raise your Horns". It was more fun than I was expecting!
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to Van Canto performing "Raise your Horns”.

#VanCanto #Reaction #TheCharismaticVoice
-------------
We just released merchandise! Check out the full line-up here: thecharismaticmerch.com
Hi, your reactions are awsome.
Here i want to present you another acapella magic, its traditional bulgarian folklore song. The vocals are amazing i recommend you to check it.
I hope you'll enjoy it: czcams.com/video/cxF9IXONp8k/video.html
Check out amon a Orth this is the orginal
please do an episode about the original - Amon Amarth. Maybe their "Raise Your Horns" masterpiece too. Much obliged.
You gotta check out the original by Amon Amarth after this. They're amazing
F... hard to get Amon amarth shown at the good reactors....Guess they are a tad to small, not enough to vote em up..but as you say They are Amazing
This version is definitely unpalatable if you heard the Amon Amarth original ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
And yeah, would love to see a reaction to My Dying Bride, early Anathema, early Paradise Lost, but I guess views are a big part of these reaction channels :/
Also yeah, Johan got the best growls in music right now.
Johan🔥🔥🔥
@@opart get out of here. weak growls. need some actual death metal growls in here if you are talking about growling. none of this weak amon amarth stuff.
As a fellow massive nerd, I'm sure you'll appreciate this fact:
Amon Amarth is the Sindarin (Elvish) name for Mt. Doom in Lord of the Rings!
Most black metal bands are named after Tolkien stuff or/and sing about Tolkien stuff tbh
@@d.w.stratton4078 Yeah, like Varg Vikernes´ nickname of "Count Grishnackh" being an orc name from LotR books.
One of the best examples though, would have to be the band Summoning, which is pretty much dedicated to Lord of the Rings lore, and they are amazing.
@@vavra222 cant forget about Blind Guardian as well! Nightfall in Middle-Earth was such a great album
@@Whiskey_Pleaz I know them, i just didnt consider them a black metal band.
According to the Band they just liked the name, had no idea what it refered to in Tolkiens Lore.
Lost oportunity for a double feature with the original, I think. Johan has some of the clearest, most understandable growls... Elizabeth will have a lot of fun when we get to Amon Amarth.
True, but lets let her ease herself in. Any suggestions for a first Amon Amarth reaction? I was thinking Twilight of the Thundergod, Death in Fire, or Guardians of Asgard.
@@oglschmitt Well, Raise Your Horns was kind of a gimme... Way of Vikings if someone can dig up good live version... First Kill probably a bit much... Shield Wall might be good... I need to dig into their older catalog before I get better ideas. 😉
Besides yours, those are great!
@@oglschmitt The hero? Deceiver of the Gods?
@@oglschmitt I have found in my research Pursuit of Vikings is actually the best intro song for death metal virgins
@@atomknight8361 Okay, lot to unpack. Atom Knight is an awesome handle. Sounds like a superhero. Death Metal Virgins would be a sweet band name. Finally, a character named Atom Knight doing research on death metal virgins in pursuit of vikings sounds like the plot to a bad-ass heavy metal comic book! Oh yeah, Pursuit of Vikings is a badass song!
Amon Amarth follow up? Absolutely love this song by them
If you want a fun original song by them, try “If I Die In Battle”
The song is fantastic. I take no responsibility for the cheesiness of the video, however.
Hey, "If I Die In Battle" is a great song, and dairy is an essential food group! I do want to shout out and thank Elizabeth for her patience as hundreds of us scream thousands of suggestions at her on a nearly daily basis. We only do it because we love you E! 😁
I was part of that video, and yes, its cheesy, but we had a metric fuckton of fun shooting it ^^
@@KelbenArunsun That’s awesome! Wish I could have been part of it-cheese and all. :-)
@@jefffenton5932 It was an exhausting day, but a lot of fun ^^
I was thinking Badaboom
You need to listen to Amon Amarth. They did the original of this song. Songs worth listening to are:
Cry of the Blackbirds
An Ancient Sign of Coming Storms
Runes to My Memory
Twilight of the Thundergod
Pursuit of Vikings
Doom over Dead Man is up there too for me.
Pursuit of Vikings
Mjölner!!
Guardian of Asgaard.... and many more
Embrace of the Endless Ocean is great as well. They somehow manage to make the song *feel* like you're caught in a massive storm in the middle of the ocean
Oh, man, Van Canto! So much stuff I'd love to see you react to. "Kings of Metal", "Primo Victoria", "Wishmaster", "Battery", "Master of Puppets", "Fear of the Dark", "Last Night of the Kings", "Seller of Souls", "If I Die In Battle", "Speed of Light"... and that's not even counting their newer stuff, which I haven't had the chance to listen to.
Badaboom is real good
Wishmaster always surprises me with the speed of those 'guitars' :)
In loving memory of Darrin Dodo
@@dannybarnhoorn9080 Dude, the speed and precision of the guitars in their "Run to the Hills" cover is mind-blowing! But yes, I also really like their cover of Wishmaster. My absolute favorite cover has to be "Master of Puppets;" absolutely amazing.
@@samuelvimes5770 I think you just named my next D&D character ...
One does not listen even a cover of Amon Amarth without growing a beard. My horn is up and ready!
Thankfully this did not happen. I have seen Elizabeth with a beard and it was terrifying!
Van Canto's cover of Nightwish's Wishmaster is what got me into them. If you want to follow up, that might be a nice cross-over song for you (having listened to Nightwish before).
I like the Van Canto cover of Wishmaster but somehow Nightwish still don't do it for me.
It also feature Tarja trunen.
The world needs more Van Canto.

Hello there, Could you please review: "Coma" from guns n roses? I am sure you will appreciate Axl's performance! Love your channel!!!
please do the original by amon amarth
the music video is great. tons of different bands are in the video
Please review Larkin's Poe Mad as a Hatter. czcams.com/video/dGEjbJkxFhs/video.html
Hey Elizabeth and Kirk, I know you checked out Anneke van Giersbergen where she guested on a few other projects - Devin Townsend/Ayreon/Within Temptation etc , but please dedicate a session to her early years in The Gathering [Leaves/Liberty Bell/Saturnine], or later projects The Gentle Storm [Shores of India] or Vuur [My Champion - Berlin]. This super talented artist stood pretty much alone in the mid 90s in the contemporary/underground metal scene, no doubt influencing later female singers.
The Bee by Amorphis. The vocals are incredible .
Among Stars got into top 5 of Mays Patreon requests, we are working to get Amorphis here. Also, Brittney Slays from UtA stated on interview on this channel that she would like to collab with Tomi, so there's that.
The Bee AND Among Stars so we dont have to choose
The Bee is amazing song. Majestic Beast from Forging a Land of Thousand Lakes is also superb vocal performance by Tomi Joutsen.
Well, now you definitely need some riddly-diddly in your life. That would be Van Canto's version of Nightwish's Wishmaster, and when you are dun, dun, dun with that... Fear of the Dark.
Lol! Everyone needs some riddly-diddly in their life sir. I would recommend "A Storm to Come" also. Rakka-Takka-Tastic.
I really enjoy Van Canto's original song "If I Die in Battle".
Lot of my larp friends in that music video :)
Fear of the Dark, Battery, Kings of Metal, Wishmaster... so many great covers from Van Canto.
So glad you're doing another Van Canto reaction! Keep them coming! Especially their original songs, not just their covers. Suggestions: Falling Down, If I Die In Battle, Lost Forever, The Bardcall.
I definitely think The Bardcall would appeal to the D&D fan in her. I would also recommend "Last Night of the Kings" and "Seller of Souls", the latter just to see her and Sly engage in a weird face battle.
@@oglschmitt for sure! she runs a D&D campaign of all bards, so Bardcall would be perfect, hahaha. And I love your other suggestions too...basically any VC songs where Sly was still in the group would be great to see her review. ;)
Amon Amarth soon then? They're a nice gateway band for full growls, they do excellent live shows and the viking themes are great. Twillight of the Thudergod is their big song, but Deciever of the Gods and Guardians of Asgaard are good first choices too. Or just The OG Raise you Horns. Dovetails into more melodeath in Arch Enemy for an Alissa follow up. .
If you want to do more Van Canto their Fear of the Dark version is great.
Twilight of the Thundergod!!!!!!
I think Amon Amarth would be a great intro into viking metal for her.
Just went and had a look for Van Canto doing "Wishmaster" . BRILLIANT!!!!! I am now sorry there wasn't any lead vocal from the female singer. She has an incredible voice!
Hi Elizabeth, I'm glad you're revisiting Van Canto and I enjoyed this cover song. Having (3) lead singers w/ such different voices was incredible. Hagen takes the lead w/ his growls, Inga w/ her high orchestral accents, and Sly leads the choir together w/ Jan. Thank you, Elizabeth!!! 💙
I think you would Love Klaus Meine of the Scorpions, with his tenor voice and soft ballads he sounds like an opera singer. Song... Still Loving You.
Klaus has a beautiful voice. Would love to see Elizabeth react to "Still Loving You", "Winds of Change", or "Rock You Like A Hurricane."
Meh, I don't like his voice after the 70s.
Still loving you is a clear favourite, but Send me an angel is also a prime example to listen to
@@ArcticLemming77 Meh nr. 2.
@@ArcticLemming77 Agreed. The Scorpions always had great ballads. I would actually prefer Elizabeth react to "Send Me an Angel" and save her "Still Loving You" reaction for the Sonata Arctica cover.
I would love to see you react to Amon Amarth that they cover here. Johan Hegg has some very clear harsh vocals and the music is amazing. By far my favourite band there is.
If you like Van Canto than you should watch "Battery", than you will hear the "higher guitar vocals" to it´s fullest :D
My favorite cover of Battery
Battery ... Battery! Battery ... Batterryyyyyy!
@@Zhgarr I can literally hear it xD
I think you would quite like Avantasia their preformence at wacken (the scarecrow) is really good and you might like the idea of the flying opera id really like to hear what you think of it @The carismatic voice ^^
There are two perfomances of The Scarecrow at Wacken and I really like more, by far, "The Flying Opera" version
I´ve been hoping for an Avantasia reaction for ages now :D
Raven Child would be my pick, but The Scarecrow is great too!
For original songs, "Badaboom" and "If I Die in Battle" are great among a growing count.
They do some great covers like:
Blind Guardian's "Bard Song"
Nightwish's "Wishmaster"
Sabaton's "Primo Victoria" [performed with Joakim Broden]
Grave Digger's "Rebellion" [performed with Chris Boltendahl]
They also have some great Manowar covers. Manowar is a power-metal / fantasy-metal band from the 80s that just recently retired. Given your reaction to Dio's vocals, Manowar's Eric Adams should give you a treat. Especially the 90s and earlier songs. Ballads, screams, note range, sustain . . . one of my favorites.
"Last Night of the Kings" by them is awesome too!
Basically if a DnD campaign turned into an acapella song :D
Also "If I Die in Batttle" for the accapella guitar solo!
Edit: Also definitely take a look at the original from Amon Amarth (which is the Sindarin name for Mt. Doom btw :D)! Their singer Johan Hegg has one of the clearest growls i´ve ever heared. Very easy to understand what he´s saying.
I’m sure you already know that the metal community is very loyal! So every single metal video you do, more “likes and views” you’ll have 😉🤘🏻by the way, Am I the first!? 😬☺️
Gratz to first! : )
They did a cover of Metallica's song Master of Puppets that has a lot of their clean singing. I think it's pretty impressive
Van Canto --> always talented, always innovative, and so very fun and enthralling to both see and hear ! Thanks for giving them more of your time !!!
Thank you, that was amazing to listen to. Will definitely be looking up more of their music.
Great reaction as always, thanks for bringing this to us.
Kirk, Elizabeth, congratulations on the 60k in 24 hours for the Holy Diver video. That's awessome!
I could watch your channel just for the amount of research you do before each video. Keep up the great work!
I wish I could hear music the way you hear music with all your training and knowledge. You got a hell of a pair of ears on you. There is so much information you're processing on a bunch of levels.
That's one of the reasons I love this channel. You verbalize everything I just talked about so well.
Their cover of Sabaton's "Primo Victoria" with guest vocals from Joakim is a must see too.
The amount of effort and energy that goes into producing their music is absolutely awesome.
before watching: VAN CANTO YEEES!! I was thinking this when I saw your videos of voiceplay :) Let's goooo!!
This was such a fun music video. From the beginning I definitely thought to myself how you're gonna just nerd out to and enjoy all the fun syllables and sounds. Good stuff. :D
You did it again. Introduced me to an for me unknown band. And a great one, too. Thats why i love your channel.....
Loved the reaction! And your drinking horn is great!
Recommendation for some older Van Canto Originals, with their original lead singer Sly:
Take to the sky, lost forever, seller of soul, Bard's Call.
For a song with Inga truly on lead: Water Fire Heaven Earth
Hagen is best on their new album, Dead By The Night is my favorite.
Their lower rakka-takka singer and songwriter (Stefan Schmidt) has another side project called Heavatar. It is also metal, he provides lead vocals and all songs are based/inspired by classical pieces, e.g. "Replica" (Toccata & Fugue in D-Minor by Bach) or "Luna Luna" (Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven)
The drummer has another band called In Legend, where he sings lead vocals and plays the piano. They make "Piano Metal", so instead of guitars they use a piano. Good songs to check out are "Pandemonium" or "Vortex"
Caught an interview with them where they said the reason the use a drummer is every vocal percussionist they auditioned basically passed out.
Van Canto is always a blast. I'd love to see a reaction to their song Last Night of the Kings, my favorite song from them. It's less metal, more a cappella folk, but it's such an amazing song.
Very happy to see a video of Van Canto again here ^^
If you can, Try “heading for tomorrow” from Gamma ray, the studio version with Ralph sheepers on vocals. You would love it 😉👍🏻👌🏻
+1 on heading for tomorrow! Excellent song!
I second that👍🏻
Another interesting song to be reacted is The Silence with the same singer.
SO NICE FOR A KNOWLEDGABLE PERSON TO REVIEW MUSIC. THANK YOU
Thank you for reacting to (and analyzing) another song by Van Canto! I was hoping you'd do so and you didn't disappoint. 😍 Maybe you'll listen to some more, maybe one of their original songs? 😊
I like "If I Die In Battle" and "Speed of Light". Their old singer was awesome. Really can't get into the new guy, no matter how hard I try.
Me neither but luckily Sly is in this album
Their new album To the Power of Eight was released last Friday. Its been on repeat on my playlist. If you do any further Van Canto reactions could I suggest One to Ten or Take to the Sky. Both are awesome
Well that was awesome!
So many good songs from van canto and you chose this...
i saw them live many years ago...they are awesome live!
Hell yeah! We are inching closer to an Amon Amarth reaction! Can't wait for Elizabeth to react to Johan Hegg's deep growls and the overall brutality of their music!
Alright, if we're talking viking metal, I have to recommend Einherjer; maybe Alu Alu Laukar, Wolf Age, or Out of Ginnungagap. Anyone have any other Einherjer recommendations?
YES ANOTHER VAN CANTO REACTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I personally think Lost Forever would be great to review.
BAM!!! reminder set. 😁
I love seeing you do more VanCanto, but again with a cover? They have so much really good songs! I recommend "The Mission" or the new "Falling Down" ;)
I would love to see a reaction to 'Beast in black - Blind and Frozen' sometime soon!
It was awesome. I have found a new favorite band.
Interesting band.Thanks for bringing them to my attention.
Sweet!! I've been eagerly waiting for you to revisit Van Canto, and I actually thought of this song during your "My Mother Told Me" reaction. I think it is the only other song that qualifies as viking a capella (Vahalla Capella? Whatever you call it, I hope it becomes a thing.) Voiceplay's song was very fluid and lavish, but this feels much more percussive and barbaric. Hey, lets sail these vocal waters on dragonship once more! Also the band Wintersun now features both the drummer and the new bassist for Nightwish, so now would be a perfect time for that "Sons of Winter and Stars" reaction. Thank you so much, this week is going to be EPIC! 🐉 🐉 🦑 🤘
Stoked to hear your reaction to the original
That was great i just bought their last 2 albums :)
I love this Song.
Charismatic is what you surely are !
smart, articulate and beautiful too
I just can't get "doo doo" and "wheaties" out of my head. ;-)
You should listen Van Canto "Battery" - just for yourself. It is hillarious.
You have to react to Rhapsody- Emerald Sword live! Fabio Lione is an incredible singer
I saw them first in 08 and been a fan since. The newer stuff I have not gotten into yet, but the first 4 Albums were fire.
I never was a fan of this guttural growl type metal, but I can appreciate this. To manipulate your voice like this and not totally destroy it is pretty impressive.
I didn't like the growls at first, but quickly grew to love the sound. Still dont really like screams though.
schweeeet, they sure know how to "sing a metal song" :)
I see what you did there...
Van Canto is an awesome group
Amon Amarth -Ironside , One thousand burning arrows, Back on northern shores . All demonstrate great vocal range and musical talents
Definitely do some Amon Amarth! One of my favorite bands, always fun
Van Canto is fun, aren't they? like many other commenters, I would love to hear your take on Amon Amarth, metal on a Viking theme.
Would love to see more Sabaton reactions, especially night witches and panzerkampf. Love your channel.
Both their cover and the original of rebellion are so mindblowing
It's a great pity that you've already listened to two songs by them and both almost without Inga singing (((
Thank you for your channel, it's great to see someone's reaction to songs you've been listening to for a long time!
I think Inga has a great voice. What songs would you recommend Elizabeth check out that showcase Inga? I think their covers of "Wishmaster" and "Into the West" are awesome, as is their latest song "Faith Focus, Finish." Her work in A Storm to Come is gorgeous.
@@oglschmitt All their covers are beautiful, but the latest work is great and more interesting because it's new. And from the old ones, "Speed of light" is a great song and video
I've heard of Amon Amarth but never really listened to it... Now I want to check them out 👍
Van Canto had 8 musicians for the album this song is from; the album is called "To the "Power of Eight." They normally have 7 members, but this album featured guest vocals from the original male lead singer, thus bumping the number up to 8. In fact, most of the songs in this album features 3 lead vocalists, kinda like the band Amaranthe. Hagen, the male lead for this song also does clean vocals in other songs, and sometimes even uses both.
I recommend also checking out their cover of "Run to the Hills." Since you recently listened to that song, I think soon is a good time to check out Van Canto's cover. Inga, the female lead, sings the lead vocals and the singers on the guitar parts sing at a fast tempo with incredible precision! I think you'd really enjoy this. I do hope to see more Van Canto reactions. I also hope to see an upload for Wintersun's "Sons of Winter and Stars." 🙂
Elizabeth is a fellow D&D nerd! One of us, one of us!
Funny you mentioned high and low guitar sounds, in my mind that's to actually fully reproduce a distorted power chord sound. The voices have to be one perfect fifth (or fourth if it's inverted) apart, add the harshness on the top of it. Plus by how they choose they syllabes they also reproduce all the guitar picking techniques. It's really cool.!
Amon Amarth really are great! Hope they get featured here soon
I love Van Canto, as an amateur singer that loves Metal/Rock... I highly recommend Van Canto's "Lost Forever" and "The Bard's Song - In the Forest" to show some of the multitude of talents and techniques.
They're so good!
Elizabeth is an amazing singer and a great CZcamsr, a great girl💯👍
Happy you finaly found Van Canto. They are amazing, plenty of great songs. You really should check out their version of Fear of the Dark and Night of the Kings.
Completely different if you want to check out a not so known singer search for Lara Loft. She is a german synchro speaker but also sings really amazing.
Patiently awaiting your take on Spencer Sotelo from Periphery :)
Nevermore - This Godless Endeavor
Nevermore gets my vote as well.
After doing a quick search of your videos. I noticed one metal band that wasn't there, and given your background in opera I am surprised you haven't looked at their content yet. So I will recommend a song by the band Powerwolf, specifically their song "Fire and Forgive" (because sadly it is one of the few with music videos), the lead singer is a classically trained opera singer from Bucharest. His voice SHOWS IT, he has power. A lot of their lyrics are in Latin which is always awesome to hear in songs. They are neither Christian or Satanist, they just use both as a theme and to quote the lead singer when he was asked that, "I am a metalist, a metal fan. Metal is my religion. Look at all these people, what unites them? I can tell you, it's the fucking metal." They really go all out to really fit the theme they have chosen, which is literally Werewolves, vampires and religious themes. They wear priest get-ups with corpse paint for crying out loud.
I've been lucky enough to sing with Van Canto, and was recorded as part of one of the choirs on an album. A hugely fun experience!
The syllables are carefully chosen to give the flow they want. Contrary to what you might think, they aren't tongue twisters but roll out easily. So, something like "rum-a-da-dum-a-nah-do-doo" is easier to sing, and sounds better than trying to go "rum-ah-ah" or "rum-a-rum-a-rum-a". Other times, such as at 2:20, you can hear "mo mo mo mo mo mo" which is to simulate a chugging palm mute, but if you try singing it you'll find that you can do long runs of it without tripping up on the words.
Hey there. I've been really enjoying your analyses of Heilung's music. I was hoping you'd consider reviewing a song by then called Traust. About 30 seconds in there is this gutteral "wewewewewewe" sound the male vocalist makes that sounds like a cross between Mongolian throat singing and a virtual rasp and I have no idea how he does it but it is haunting and beautiful. I think you'd legitimately get a thrill out of listening to it given how strongly you react to unusual vocalizations!
Gotta be honest, if I had to choose between this version and the original by Amon Amarth, I'm picking Amon Amarth 10/10 times.
I love Van Canto a lot, but yeah. I agree :D Growls are fucking weak here :/
Yeah this is straight trash.
The vocals are so low as to be unintelligible. And I'm a big Amon Amarth fan...so....
I don't think I commented on any of your posts yet. Really like your Heilung reactions. I have always been a metal head. As much as I don't want your channel to become a metal reaction channel, Amon Amarth has been apart of my life for years and is spiritual, tough, and sometimes beautiful. A good song I would recommend from them would be the Pursuit of Vikings music video to start with. Really captures the energy and stirs up the old blood.
Great Choice!
If you really want to nerd out you should also make a reaction video to their song "Magic Taborea". This song combines the wonderful music of Van Canto and the Fantasy Online Game Runes of Magic. This is also the song that led me to the band and their music when I first met them at the Roleplay Convention where they were supporting the game with a show there.
I'm glad you've looked at Van Canto. Their stuff is fantastic for the most part and given that they're a mostly acapella band it seems fitting XD I'd love to see you react to some of their original songs, ones which featured Philip Schunke before he left. He was the lead male vocalist up til their Voices of Fire album. I'd really recommend Time and Time Again, or Firevows, actually. :)
Yes, please do Amon Amarth reactions they are an amazing band.
Van Canto - Lost Forever official video.
Oh I gotta find you on twitch for DND haha!
Thanks, fun to hear. While listening to the Holy Diver reaction yesterday, I thought that it would be interesting for you to react to one of the most recognizable voices of hard rock and heavy metal. I loved your T-shirt by the way, The man is of course Lemmy of Motörhead! Try Killed by Death or the lesser known, but quite different, No voices in the Sky. Enjoy!
Second time of Van Canto in this channel, very nice! I must suggest a third one, this time with a song that Inga takes lead vocal too!
Fun Fact: Inga Scharf (female Lead Vocalist) is a Teacher (under a slightly different name ^^) for biology and german studies and I had the pleasure to have this funny person as my very competent teacher for two years. Great vocalist, teacher and person :)
