Thanks for the shout out guys! So glad you like the bracelets I sent out for you. Keep the awesome reviews coming!
I completely agree with all the Leprous comments, a great band that deserves way more recognition. I also hope you guys will react to Vein soon.
Vein restored my hope in hardcore this year, such a sick debut album and so innovative too
Why listen to leprous when you can listen to the band they open for? Between the buried and me(leprous is good though!!!)
Significant Otter yes vein, harms way, knocked loose, Kublai kahn
@Arron
Why not both?
I went to the Leprous/Dear Hunter/Between the Buried and Me show and despite being a big fan of all three bands, Leprous was the best set of the night.
After Themata you guys should check out something from their album Sound Awake. Something like Goliath, Simple Boy or Set Fire to the Hive. They're a fantastic band!
SET FIRE TO THE HIVE.
Exactly what I would've suggested.
Simple Boy !
Not my favorite Karnivool song, but still a good one. I prefer something from the Sound Awake album like Simple Boy, Goliath, All I Know or Deadman.
All I know is awesome
SET FIRE TO THE HIVE.
Simple boy for sure. Saw them live as an opening band for another band and they blew me away with that.
I agree. I'd go with All I Know
The live version of Deadman is chilling: czcams.com/video/fyJQwZcnVM0/video.html
*Porcupine Tree* - Arriving Somewhere but not Here
*Leprous* - Acquired Taste
*Ozzy Osbourne* - Diary of a Madman
Mannn porcupine tree - anestethise would be just perfect
DIARY of a MADMAN is a must been requesting for months
@James Ferguson
Yeah, it's epic and theatrical and haunting, classic Ozzy, probably my favorite of his
Leprous- The Price would be my suggestion. PTree- Sound of Muzak, or Trains
I'd love for Anesthetize by Porcupine Tree
Omg I have asked for this for like 6 months on almost every rock video y’all post!! Thank you!!
Cote- karnivool you'll love it
Dude cote is such a good song. Not sure they can handle it.
Was hoping they'd listen to it first.
Cote is my favorite!!!
Probably Karnivool's best song or at least top 3.
TooL - The Grudge
I'll always upvote this. It's been a while since they did tool and this is by far my favorite choice. It would also be the first tool song they do that hasn't been played on regular radio.
I’d like to see them react to Wings for Marie and 10000 days... they’d have some nice approach on lyricism as usual
Rosetta Stoned
The Grudge is a great tune. Right in Two is an amazing tune especially lyrically.
Yeeeeeeeees
As many people have pointed out, this album was a long time in the making. And by the time it came out, the band had finally come together and their sound really evolved. Its their Sophomore album "Sound Awake", which is widely considered one of the best Progressive Rock albums of the last decade, and each song on it is phenomenal. They had their roots in Nu-Metal, but evolved into this wonderfully unique Progressive sound with time. I'd recommend "Simple Boy", "Goliath", or "Deadman" from that album.
Otherwise, try "COTE" from Themata.
Hope you give them another shot soon!
Yeah, COTE shows off Ian Kenny's voice in a song that really suits him. Do you think they would like Shutterspeed?
Themata is as good a song as Cote, but suffers the same 'pitfalls' George disliked about this track. I'm thinking a revisit of Karnivool should definitely be a track from Sound Awake.
I'd love to see their reaction to Roquefort!
SET FIRE TO THE HIVE.
However I have to mention for the 158th time, Sound Awake has pretty atrocious mixing per more than half of it the cymbals clip horribly.
Karnivool!? A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one!
Awesome.
Hello there, Sithposting
Anesthetize- porcupine tree
The live version. God teir
Dillinger Escape Plan - Widower. The craziest, most chaotic band ever!
Yes to Dillinger!!!!
Great choice!
Yeah awesome ! Back to prog ! I like it ! Caligula's Horse Turntail or Leprous The price !
I’ve been begging for “Rust” for months now. I think it's a great, accessible choice as an introduction to Caligula’s Horse. Plus, I love that heavy breakdown.
Seconded for either Caligula’s Horse or Leprous!
Caligula’s Horse is one of my favorites. A+ recommendation
How is your comment 2 months old xD
Caligula's Horse!! Please!
Rust, Will's Song, Marigold....
And Leprous! The Price or Golden Prayers to begin with.
TESSERACT - Of Matter (Live at Sphere Studios). This will expand your mind to the point of explosion! Check it!
Definitely.
Oh hell yeah, they’re something special
I think Nocturne would be a really good first song. It has a really catchy riff I think they could jive to.
they did tesseract...now do between the buried and me!!!
One of the greatest albums I 've ever heard
Guys, RIVERSIDE. Please, RIVERSIDE.
Riverside is one of the most underrated band
The question: What song do you think represents them best???
Second Life Syndrome, Escalator Shrine, Egoist Hedonist, Left Out
Loose Heart
Riverside is one of the greatest Prog rock bands, period. I agree with Danial Dominquez, any one of those songs are amazing. If I had to pick one Egoist Hendonist.
Deftones - My Own Summer
I second this
Be Quiet And Drive would be another great choice from that album.
Or around the fur...Or Headup even..:P
Karnivool - Simple Boy ! You won't regret ! And you won't say that his voice don't fit!
It's so damn cool to have witnessed your guys' perspectives and views on this kind of music become refined as it has over the past year. I can't wait to see what the next big steps are for Lost in Vegas in time!
HUGE Karnivool fan here. Patiently awaiting next album. But as far as vocals so. He's one of the best out there. He's a monster live too. No where near whiny, but u guys prob need one more song to convince you. Themata is ok but it's one of their weaker tracks. Try Deadman, New Day or Caudal Lure.
What I really want to draw u guys to is La Dispute tho. Specifically Harder Harmonies. I really want to see you guys break down the lyrics. One of the best story telling bands out there. It's very similar to the way the best rappers write their lyrics. Keep it up guys.
I vote Goliath. Deadman is an excellent track, but a little drawn out.
this. introducing anyone to karnivool goliath should be first imo
Karnivool is amazing. Themata is a great song. Underrated band. So good.
Sooo underrated, I saw them for like $10 in Toronto a few years back.
Leprous! Anything by them
Hollow by Pantera
or
Right in Two by Tool
I know you’ve done both bands, but you NEED to hear these ones. At least listen to ‘em in your private time.
Lamb of God - Walk with me in Hell
You gotta check out Leprous! From The Flame or The Price would be good starts
megapengproductions i still say between the buried and me but this dude knows his shit with leprous songs
What the hell George? The vocals are my favorite part of this song lol
Leprous - The Price!!!
I second this 100%
Hell yeah!
Hell yeah. The Price would be perfect.
Not sure about the song but definitely some Leprous! Maybe Slave or Bonneville...
The price is awesome
The contortionist language - Intuition
Table Cloth contortionist < between the buried and me
Arron Delman valid argument can’t complain.
My top two band picks. Maybe followed by converge, but that's a different thing entirely. 😄
@@eightybby1886 Personal preference -.-
Porcupine tree - arriving somewhere but not here
Architects - Gone with the Wind
I like this song. It's from their debut full-length album of 2005. I suggest you guys to check out their 2013 song "We Are". It has an awesome groove, an odd time signature typical of prog songs and a beautiful melody. I love everything about it, especially the bass and drums lines.
Literally gasped when I saw this in my notifications. Love this band and love y'all for doing this!
epicshot2000 same
The Karnivool guys are about same age as you guys. This is one of their best known songs, but maybe not indicative of their whole sound... There is a fair bit of light and shade in their music and this is probably one of the heavier ones...
If you want a heavier one, try:
set fire to the hive
But more of a challenge would be: deadman
Third eye By tool!!!!!!!!!
Judith by a Perfect Circle!!!!!!!!!
Great reaction guys keep it up!
One of my favourite bands! If you want to check out more of them, I would listen to Roquefort, set fire to the hive, or we are.
Edit: and each of those songs are from a different album
Soen - Lucidity (live in Rome). It's just beautiful
Cheers for checking these guys out - they've been one of the best in Australia for years, appreciation for true craftsmanship of music.
Leprous - From The Flame
I think they'd really dig this one. The hook is crazy strong.
Glad to see some Australian music on this channel! Gotta hear some Parkway Drive or Smith Street Band. Maybe some Aussie Hip Hope like Horrorshow or Hilltop Hoods!
Parkway
The Amity Affliction too!
Karnivool - A New Day. One of their best!
Thanks for the vids, big love
I can’t believe you two did a reaction to Karnivool. You two are all over the map.
Plz do Porcupine tree- Arriving somewhere but not here
Upvote party for Porcupine tree- Arriving somewhere but not here. The live version is perfect.
not enough people know about porcupine tree
Leprous for sure. Solid band.
wow thx for doing this. As someone with picky tastes it's epic to find a new band that I've never heard of and like them. Man I swear Australia has the best rock groups right now!
I can't believe you're doing a Karnivool song. They're one of my favorites!
At the Gates - Slaughter of the Soul
Good choice. Now for Unsung by Helmet!
@Jim Martens eww no. Helmet only existed when Stanier was drummer.
I can't believe y'all sat in silence for so long on this song lmao. I thought you were both loving it for sure because of that
I've been waiting for a Karnivool reaction for so long man! Such a sick band. My favorite song from them is Roquefort, it's groovy as heck man.
"I'm questioning whether this is progressive metal!"
Haha that's a good call, in reality Themata is more of a collection of nu-metalish, hard rock songs with some metal and prog tendencies. It's a reasonably generic album with the lead singers vocals as the point of difference. As everyone else has said, their second album Sound Awake was when they really solidified their prog sound, while it was their third album Asymmetry they went full steam ahead with the prog metal sound and tempo changes.
If you are to listen to Karnivool again, I would recommend Goliath, Deadman, or Umbra from SOund Awake, and probably Aeons or We Are from Asymmetry. Great reaction!
EDIT: Also, interesting comment from you George about the vocals, they do tend to be polarising from what I have seen.
Finally!!!!
Next from them :
Karnivool - All I know / COTE 👌
cote!
Wtf u talking about, GOLIATH NEXT
I love all i know, but i feel like: if he hated the vocals on Themata, he might not dig it
I think new day or we are would be more palatable for him
I respect whoever requested Karnivool! Hahahahahah I was thinking about this before but never thought it’d be requested
This is why I love you guys. You spit it real. One likes it, the other says "nah". Plus, I get introduced to new stuff every once in a while. Keep up the great work. Music is the bridge of all cultures.
Haken - Atlas Stone or Cockroach King!!
These guys are trendsetters in prog at the moment. I'd love to hear your reactions to them.
It’s time us freethinkers expand genres. A perfect start into rock/alternative genre is
Jeff Buckley- Grace Live on the bbc or album version.
He has an amazing voice and was a great songwriter taken too soon.
Ah, Jeff Buckley, I haven't listened to him in years, going to fix that right now.
Jeff Buckley Grace Live on BBC
Thinking about it now I think the studio version is a better fit for a reaction.
Listen to this man.
YAAAAAS IM SO HAPPY YOURE DOING THIS
Country of Origin: Australia
Year of release: 2005
Band lineup on this recording:
Ian Kenny- Lead vocals
Andrew Goddard- Lead Guitar, drums, backing vocals, string arrangements
Mark Hosking- Rhythm guitar, backing vocals
John Stockman- Bass
ORPHANED LAND - Ocean Land
Caligulas horse is fantastic please check em out
Atlas
Graves
Wow, you guys actually did karnivool. That's awesome. This isn't my favorite from them, but I'm glad yall did it! Great stuff as always
Yeeeeeesssss! Yeeeeessssss! Great song choice! Keep up the good listening!
Got to give BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME a chance. COMA MACHINE or VOICE OF TRESPASS these two songs don’t have as much of the harsh vocals, but VOICE OF TRESPASS needs to be approached with an open mind! It’s a masterpiece.
Haken might be another band to check out after this
Finally, thank you!!! Pls do more of karnivool
How the hell did I miss this?
I've been watching you guys regularly for a while, and this one somehow slipped past me.
Glad I found it tho.
Fates Warning: The Light and Shade of Things
Redemption: Walls
Porcupine Tree: Lazarus or Blackest Eyes
Now we are talking!
Though, I'd start them out on "White Flag" from Fates Warning since its more straight forward, as an introduction to them (and that their catalogue is HUGE and of various styles). I LOVE "Light and Shade" but it may be too long for them, but I would hope they'd love the "change" when it becomes heavier and up tempo :).
Redemption, there are so many songs, where to begin? . . .
Porky Tree - Arriving Somewhere, Sound of Muzak, Trains, Blackest Eyes, Shallow.
King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard - Nuclear Fusion (live on KEXP)
Ohh yes please!
Yooooo the first person I’ve seen recommend these dudes and hell yeah. This or gamma knife would be dope
Kolby Artigue I'd requested for them in some vids. I think it would be dope too
Rodrigo Martinez the music night come off as a little much though. It’s definitely an acquired taste even for musicians
Karnivool - [We Are] is one of my favorite songs EVER, don't miss it out!
The respect y’all show to each other and the viewers is the reason i subbed a while ago. Keep the uploads coming boys very well done.
Porcupine Tree - Arriving Somewhere but not Here live. You won't regret it.
I’d really love to see you guys check out the “Whiplash” version of Caravan, the drumming is NUTS in that song
Finally!!!!! Karnivool are my absolute favourite, great to see you checking out some of the Australian modern prog giant!
I think the most interesting part about this channel is seeing how your tastes in metal are different while still having common ground in other areas. Ryan going the more melodic route while George preferring the more aggressive. It's what keeps me coming back to this channel.
Ey George my man, becoming a proper metal elitist - vocals aren't hard enough!! Need that metal music to sound DANGEROUS!! I like it - keep em coming!
Awesome. You guys got to check out TESSERACT - Of Matter (Live at Sphere Studios) and Periphery - Stranger things
Yes! I was waiting for this one. Thanks for doing it!!
YES YES YES THANK YOU THIS BAND IS AMAZING. I hope you check out more by them. Their track record is perfect to some.
Porcupine Tree - Way Out Of Here, the live version! You guys will be AMAZED at their drummer Gavin Harrison.
Dont know who's suggesting you these tracks, but wrong choice for a first Karnivool song, in my opinion. You should have done 'New Day' or 'Simple Boy', or even 'All I Know'.
EDIT: And please get back to TESSERACT. Their song 'Of Matter' will change your life. Not even kidding, I'd bet my life on that one epic song.
i have to politely disagree with ya there. This was the first Karnivool song i heard and i was /hooked/ that groove at the beginning with that riff is pure sex
New Day was my first listen to Karnivool. I like it better, but I think this song is just fine for a first listen.
Does Tesseract have a singer? The last time I heard em (2012) they were an instrumental band but they've gotten really popular
Yes, they have had a couple different singers. They recently'ish have their old singer back.
I disagree with Themata being a bad introduction track. It's a pure prog banger. I actually wish Karnivool would write more music like Themata. I don't feel like anything even on the same record is like it.
A Martian Winter - Angel Vivaldi
Funeral - Silent Civilian
Be Quiet and Drive - Deftones
Was so excited when I saw this I went and grabbed a beer!
This was the first Karnivool song I ever heard - but it was 2005. Different musical landscape. I agree with others that a song from Sound Awake would be a better example of their... I don’t know what?
Thanks for giving it a spin!
You should check out Leprous - Stuck! 😄 Norwegian progressive
Corrosion of Conformity - Albatross or Clean My Wounds
Excellent reaction. Karnivool is one of the great new bands!!!
Love me some Karnivool, great video guys. I feel like their style was a work in progress until their album Sound Awake. If you come back to them theres plenty of great tracks on there - Simple Boy, Goliath, New Day, All i Know, Change, etc.
Haken- Cockroach King
Tool - Eulogy
cant believe you reviewd my all time fav nu metal/prog song! i love you guys! keep rocking
Marc Broussard -- Home (Soul, R & B, swamp rock)
The Band of Heathens -- Hurricane (Americana, folk rock)
Uncle Lucius -- Keep the Wolves Away (Rootsy classic rock, country, blues)
Chris Knight -- Down the River (Country rock, Americana)
If you guys do them again, COTE is a great song.
Go back to the beginning of Prog with the band Yes! Roundabout is probably the best place to start. A lot of the prog metal bands cite bands that cite Yes as one of their main influences, including Rush!
Thank you for all your reactions. I've enjoyed them immensely.
Yay!!!! I'm soooooo happy you did this!!!!
Leprous - Bonneville
If youre into progressive again... Please react to Protest the Hero - Sequoia Throne
Heretics and Killers, Turn Soonest To the Sea, Bloodmeat, Harbinger, Blindfolds Aside, Devine Suicide of K...
Man! Turn Soonest to the Sea is one of my all time favorite for them... But for a 1st reaction to the band I still think Sequoia Throne is the best option, maybe Blindfolds Aside
PTH will blow their minds
Getting to my favourite bands now! Love it!
Fear Factory: Replica, H-K, Pisschrist, Resurrection or Shock.
Archspire: Remote Tumor Seeker or Involuntary Doppelganger
Please react to Davidian by Machine Head!
Skindred - Kill the Power!
Since it has been asked "Themata" comes from the greek word "Θέματα", so the pronunciation should be "ThEmata" and roughly translates to "Issues" or maybe "Chapters". Aside from that, this is Karnivool's first album released in 2005, so there's a strong nu-metal-meets-Tool (they weren't so subtle with their name and their influences) sound to it. Ian Kenny's voice resemblance to Maynard's makes it even more so Tool-ish, although their sound changed somewhat after Themata, crafting their own signature sound, which helped to establish an awesome alternative/prog metal aussie scene, with bands like (my personal favorite) Dead Letter Circus, The Butterfly Effect, Cog, Caligula's Horse and many more.
Man! Another cool band I’ve never heard of before! Thank y’all for the fantastic review!
Also, would love to see y’all review Orden Ogan - Gunman for a great, underrated power metal group!
