Canadian shooting stars UNLEASH THE ARCHERS have been on the road since their inception in 2007. Since then they have created an immensely loyal North American fan base. With a fresh sound, precise songwriting and the incredible feeling for heaviness and melodies, this power quintet with singer Brittney Slayes are now ready to take the rest of the world. Their new studio album Time Stands Still, is fast-paced and wildly entertaining; the combination of power vocals, death screams, tasty guitar licks and complex drumming provide a little something for everyone. Time Stands Still is kick ass heavy metal with fist-pumping anthemic melodies you can’t help but sing along to.

The interesting thing about Unleash The Archers is that they manage to revive 1980's heavy power metal to modern times with extreme personality. They also show that the strength of a band is the ability and inspiration to make great songs. Despite being a young band, it shows absolute maturity and also that when the great bands end activities like Iron Maiden, Judas... Unleash The Archers is ready to be a strong global representative of heavy metal. Unleash The Archers for the past six years, is releasing albums of extreme quality and huge inspiration in songwriting.
It's not power metal just because it has operatic vocals. This is just a modernized interpretation of classic Heavy Metal. If you wanna call them Power Metal, then I would agree Abyss is a Power Metal album but most of it isn't.
There's definitely a lot of Helloween and Queensryche influence here, too. This was released before Apex, which has their cover of Queen of the Reich on the Japanese version.
@@austinhudson5349 Power Metal is basically any metal band where the lyrics/themes are more fantasy/sci-fi, along with the classic sound and high-pitched vocals (maybe mixed with some growling). UTA definitely has the theme going for them. I'd say they're power metal by today's standards. If you look at early Judas Priest, Queensryche, Helloween, and Iron Maiden (among others), you can hear both the musical AND thematic influences. And those bands laid the foundation for power metal.
@@ArchangelJaceAscended That's a generalization, not fact. Not all Power Metal is Fantasy driven or has high-pitched vocals. You aren't even talking about the musical aspect that is very power chord driven. Does UTA have Power Metal elements? Of course, especially the recent album, but not all of it. I would argue Apex is more Melodic Thrash or traditional Heavy Metal than Power Metal.
Iron Maiden and Judas Priest are precursors because they were Metal, but they aren't Power Metal. A lot of Power Metal bands take a lot of influence from them but the high vocals and fantasy lyrics aren't everything. You are ignoring the entirety of the instrumentation.
@@austinhudson5349 Power metal is a subgenre of heavy metal combining characteristics of traditional heavy metal with speed metal, often within a symphonic context. Generally, power metal is characterized by a faster, lighter, and more uplifting sound, in contrast with the heaviness and dissonance prevalent in, for example, extreme metal. Power metal bands usually have anthem-like songs with fantasy-based subject matter and strong choruses, thus creating a theatrical, dramatic and emotionally "powerful" sound.
Brittney's booming voice... I fucking love it!
So hard to find a female vocalist that can do a proper power wail that's in any kind of harmony. Brittney's just fucking awesome!
Imagine the Time Stands Still album with the production from Apex and Abyss.
And within 5 minutes she has become one of my favourite vocalists!
Seriously, she's a beast
up there with Floor Jansen of my top female metal vocalists!
You're damn straight she is lol one of the best
Same with me…she’s a goddess
check a female vocalist named Lluvia Dominguez from Legati band
Them: "Abandon the son."
My dad: "Say no more."
lmao
Lol
Apex-Abyss would have a word, or a thousand.
either way...
The fourth son would like a word, so would his son!
Omfg I just died laughing
@@jayb7775 So would the seventh son of a seventh son
Watched this dozens and dozens of times now and I still get shivers at the end. Brittney Slayes is incredible.
We waited years since the passing of dio to belive we would never hear his haunting vocals again but atlast we was wrong as they certainly have been reborn through this female vocalist and the beautiful writing much similar as that of iron maiden who told stories with their music not just music for the sake of it.
Congrats this song and band will go far and deserves alot more recognition within the music industry
"This voice, you are..... Dragonborn!".
"the legends are true"
A Scotsman, A Colonist, A cow Boy, A homeless and a intergalactic future warrior find a chest....
...and walk in to a bar
Something they schemed while streaming a game, eh?
It's all about time going on man
No it's walk into a bar.
Fool
after hearing power metal im like ..." ok i can lift a car, get out of my way problems!" amazing. love this band
Man, she's got one heck of an amazing and powerful voice!
Everyone's focusing on Brittany's voice, which fair enough is amazing, but can we just take a moment to acknowledge Scott's absolutely powerful jawline here?
her name is Brittney xD
@@yasminmohamed2359 Check, noted. Critney Cheers.
(waiting for the knowledge of the porn-stache to reach you...)
She's gotta be DIOs daughter, those vocals my god
I was just thinking that the guitars and vocals sound like Dio!
She's a foot and a half too tall.
and ROB HALFORD
So she's Giorno's sister, eh? I wonder what her stand ability would be?
and Bruce Dickinson's niece
Tonight we Ride and The Awakening are their most known songs but to me this song truly shows off Brittney's pure POWERFUL voice. and It blows me away every single time I listen to it.
Having Rob Halford, Tony Iommi, and Dave Mustaine as arbiters for the next heavy metal generation was a great touch. Thumbs up!
Só se for como uma representação né pq n sao eles não
@@rafaels3185 ah claro, são 3 caras ali de cosplay. Mas a mensagem é bem clara.
I knew its meant to be Rob Halford immediately, but had a hard time identifying the other two, thanks.
I had though the white shirt dude was meant to be Eddie Van Halen (or even Meatloaf), and the middle dude Dio.
@@Dung30n The wristband gave it away for Mustaine but also the sunglasses threw me off at first because he isn't known for wearing them.
@@Dung30n Oh, I assumed it was Dio too!
Their videos are so ridiculous, but their music is soooo very complex and layered.
The skill and entertainment value of THIS band is absolutely cosmic! LOVE their music!
So a cute lady walks down an ally and starts singing with hellacious vocals and gets band members in just seconds.
Works for me.
@@hooves2noodles_art you got a problem with him speaking the truth, I mean she is cute, at least he didn't go into full detail of her looks, he was just mentioning the odd concept of how the video is orchestrated, dont hate a man because he had the audacity to be nice and compliment her.
A great Song to be sure, and a great Video, but basically this is an enormously beef´d up Remake of Survivor´s official "Eye of the Tiger" Video :D
@@hooves2noodles_art So this is bad voice/music??
czcams.com/video/gqUPGa15Oto/video.html
czcams.com/video/FUSjIrPs3bQ/video.html
If that is bad talent for you, idk...
I guess Kat May didn't read the part where I typed, "Hellacious Vocals." Not trying to be rude just simply stating what I typed. Hellacious Vocals is equivalent to Powerful Voice.
Voice like that, I'm surprised this didn't turn into a battle royale of folks trying to make a band with her
Brittany"s vocals are absolutely AMAZING rock on girl🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘❤❤❤❤❤❤
Brittney is the ultimate badass
as always she is
Might be my favourite vocalist, love her power behind everything.
Her voice can revive a dead man from his grave!!!!!!!
Brutal Heidi Truth. I was dead, but no longer
RESURRECTIOOOOOOON BY ERECTIOOOOOOOON
I was also going to make the Powerwolf joke. You beat me to it. Haha
Lol "beat"
Her voice reminds me a lot of Ronnie James Dio
Abandon this sun, what’s done is done, and time will go on and on
It won’t be long, we will come, and time will go on and on
[Verse 1]
Hold on, though it seems that the end it is now upon us, fear not the fall
Rise up, we will find there’s a way for us to carry on, for once and for all
Fortune’s favor, is ours now, ride to glory
[Chorus]
Abandon this sun, what’s done is done, and time will go on and on
It won’t be long, we will come, and time will go on and on
[Verse 2]
Stand with us, be the one that will lead them when the night is over, answer the call
Rebuild, history can only be written by the victors, and we will write it all
Break through, when the walls have fallen and the ash has lifted, light will come
Gather now, we have risen on the winds of our transformation, we finally have won
[Chorus]
Abandon this sun, what’s done is done, and time will go on and on
It won’t be long, we will come, and time will go on and on
There's something magic in this song. Is this what we used to call talent long time ago?
Yes, it's definitely talent!
Travis Foster and hard work!
@Forrest Hunter 911? Dude shit was fucked up for thousands of years before 911 happened.
@@Assdafflabaff nah man. Long ago the ever changing number of nations lived together in harmony. Then everything changed when the suicide bombers attacked.
@@jewf1sh299 Lol it reminds me of that Team America quote:
Sean Penn: -
Last year I went to Iraq. Before Team America showed up, it was a happy place. They had flowering meadows and rainbow skies, and rivers made of chocolate, where the children danced and laughed and played with gumdrop smiles.
52 today, years and years of metal I've seen, TY UTA that ol-skool power metal feel in a new pair of shoes. Whole-lot-a-love !!!!!!!!
Jesus christ the pipes on this lady! Damn
Since I have heard the Phantom Opera Ghost by Iced Earth, I've always wanted to hear a Metal band with a vocalist, who can do True Metal vocals. The time has finally come...
POWERHOUSE VOCALS!! Incredible! Brittney sings the shit out of this!!!
she literally "slayes" in vocals
This song reminds me the old classic rock metal of the 70s and 80s
On this album Brittney had her pipes fixed on Legendary settings. Man Frozen Steel and Hail of the Tide makes me full of adrenaline, sends shivers of joy down my whole body, and damn Scott Buchanan man behind the drums wrote the lyrics...amazing.
It's 530 in the morning... I should be in bed... but instead, I'm here, watching UTA videos... I regret nothing.
There's something about Brittney's absolute fucking basscannon of a voice along with the pace at which they're walking that is just intimidating as all hell.
I knew the band from before and quite few great songs of them. but man, I heard this for the first time this morning and I can't get it out of my head. her voice is amazing, the music is outstanding, the choir great and that's a killer riff. simplicity on it's best. I fucking love it!
That was so fucking 80's classic metal
I was in awe by it!!!
Luiz Gustavo finally!! One who understands. You are not alone brother.
Man wouldn't you like hear Her do some covers on Ann Wilson(Heart) music...IE Barracuda,Magic Man...etc etc...
sounds like something Ronnie James Dio would write and i love it
dio riffs and twisted sister screams. amazing.
Masterpiece. Powerful voice. Brittney has one of the best voices in the rock and metal scene :-).
Holy Shit the vocals! they write like maiden and have the vocal range of manowar.
rebellos00 two of the greatest bands on this earth
Pretty good comparison actually. I was just telling a friend to give them a try, and said it was basically Manowar with a female singer with a greater range.
total Eric Adams vibe to much of her vocals, and that's a GOOD thing!
She sings like a female version of Eric Adams, but looks like a female version of Joey de Mayo. I mean all that in a good way.
Right in the middle of Michael kiske, and Bruce Dickenson. In my opinion
That drummer is in a class of his own! truly amazing!
check out his performance in acoustic version of Apex
czcams.com/video/wRP9Hkz9qHQ/video.html
i love how they honour their musical ancestors.
when i first heard "awakening" i thought she sounds much like early helloween.
and now there kai hansen sits besides rob halford.
great move.
You mean besides Iomi right? I can only recognize Halford and Tony Iomi.
Best thing that happen to metal in these dark times ..
2020: I'm about to end this comment
What lady in rock can hit the energy emotion and pitch she does?!!!! Brittney Slayes...slays me!
Brittney is relentless ...and she certainly Slayes! 😉 This performance is beyond my comprehension right now. Wow!
She's Canadian, and that's close enough to the UK that we could adopt her, right? lol
As a Canadian, I'm willing to share :)
one of the most powerful vocalists in metal currently imo. can't wait till you guys tour the us
unleash + manowar, would be more than epic \o////////////
Add A Sound of Thunder into the mix as well.
No doubt sneakypheasant, Brittney Slayes has to be one of the most awesome and powerful female vocalists in metal today. I can't wait for a U.S. tour either. Please come to the Bay Area California.
The only problem with this is those damn guys from Blind Guardian also have a song called 'Time Stands Still' ... So this might not even be the most powerful vocalist on songs called 'Time Stands Still' :P
czcams.com/video/3aB6CPyO0Ww/video.html
@@PVDH_magic I thought it was going to be a Rush cover - Canadian and all....
An ode for those who say "the rock is dead".
Wake up guys, move on, we will survive!
New blood and old school metal! Awesome!!
Seriously this band gives me hope for the future of great music. So impressed with every song I hear.
That's a very, very good song. And Brittney's voice, vocal style and range are enthralling!
I'm really loving the powerful, 80s-esque guitar and vocals! Nice, even percussion too.
Props for the Drawing of the Three reference also.
her voice is Godly...album is awesome
Thanks for this Hymn!
I fell in love with her vocals
Agreed. Prophesy !
Exactly.
I think the power of her voice just melted my speakers and monitor.... and the drummer sped my heart up to max rate..... awesome job.
Her voice is so fucking powerful
This band....makes me happy.
A Metal Goddess with a pure voice! Not Opera voice! Wow!!!!!!
Rob Halford, in the audience, is like: "That's my daughter!"
Adopted, obviously.
@@55Porter His daughter with Dio.
@@55Porter 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This makes me want to move to Canada, an epic land where even the alleys are filled with metal gods.
Avoid Toronto...
This song gives me chills Every time. Her vocals are so powerful!
One of my favorite songs. I love this song. Incredible and amazing voice. Great video and great band :-).
You guys are just incredible. Absolute. A throwback to a time when talent meant more.
I can't believe I missed this when it debuted. Love their music.
I'm the only black guy in America who blast this song in my truck windows down. 😍
Heard these guys on Pandora. Fell in love with their music. I've been a metal band fan for over 30 years. The 80's could rock. Now I am 65 and I thought I heard it all. Brittany my dear, you have a beautiful voice, and yawl can rock. If you come to Texas, I may get in on me horse and ride on to see ya. Yeah right....like I 'm Queen of Sheba. Lol!! Yawl rock!! I found a new band!! ❤
i am a true metalhead and listen to all metal, this is soo fucking awesome!!! I love UTA!
I googled meaning of life, it brought me directly to this page
UltraPoseidon Add Brittney Slayes to your search and you'll find another great song ;-)
UltraPoseidon well done 😂
INDEED!!!
I did a Bing search and got to "Never gonna give you up" from Rick Astley 🥺
I normally don't subscribe to anything but Brittney's the most talented women I have ever seen and heard
Ahhh another in the plethora of Fellow Canadian bands covers. Such a class act UTA, home town Canadians salute you once again.
*waits for the goosebumps to wear off then squeals happily* Napalm's given me many grat music vids but... UtA's what dragged me in and it's still my favorite :D
1:50 My ears gonna blow up...absolutely amazing part wow
when i first saw this i thought it was a cover of Blind Guardian's Time Stands Still (At the Iron Hill) and now i want Unleash the Arachers to do a Blind Guardian Cover
I don't listen to this genre of music alot,but when I do,I listen to Unleash the Archers. Really . Wow love her voice.
It's incredible how gorgeous Brittney is... And what a powerful voce! This band is just perfect!
Ryu Hayabusa she’s a babe shwing
(Hope you get the reference)
If Ronnie James Dio, Bruce Dickinson, Geoff Tate, Rob Halford and Ian Gillan (my fave!!) produced a female offspring, it would be Brittney Slays!
Wow this band gave me goose bumps. That hasn't happened in a long time. Why are they not more famous?
Tour America soon! We need this greatness in our lives
This is my favorite song on the record. It amuses me highly that, on the intro, everybody else BUT Brittney (sp?) is singing. I'll bet that's a lot of fun to see live. And, if they play in Wales, I'll bet it's amazing.
D Snodgrass Actually, the backup vocals were performed by a separate group of singers. In the live version this part is missing, but I'm hoping that someday the crowd will be able to take this part ;-)
Vazoth Damn. I was chuckling at the vision of Brittney playing "Choir Director" to her bunch of ruffian bandmates. Oh, well, still love the song; and if they go to Wales, the crowd may well do that, whether it's planned or not. It's kinda their thing, I'm told.
D Snodgrass This would indeed be a lot of fun to watch :D
Crypt is my favourite from this album.
on the iron hill
at*
fuck
MattStormage "Time stands still at the Iron Hill!"
points if you know the band or song :)
Blind Guardian of course power metal Gods and masters of time and space
Shawn Rutz Right on dude \m/
WHERE. HAVE. YOU. BEEN.ALL. MY. LIFE.??????? Holy Shit!! you guys are amazing!!!!!
I knew this band a few weeks ago and I gotta say: I'm in love! These vocals are a force of nature, it comes as a thunder and puts me into frenesi. Amazing band! Completely a new fan here! Cheers from Brazil. Hope you guys keep bringing us these amazing songs! My favorite 21st century Metal band so far. I was really missing these 80's vocals and I think it got really awesome with these riffs.
OMG!! I got goosebumps listening to this song!!! Love the video and especially the music! The vocal work is amazing,as well. I may have a new favorite band now!
EXACTLY what I think now . . . this band is a PURE PLEASURE . . . really GREAT !
Every epic Band has a song named "Time Stands Still"
At the Iron Hill! Blind Guardian!
Who else?
@@redbird300011 Rush
2:22 until 3:10 is an amazing demonstration of vocal power. Love it
Might be my favourite vocalist, love her power behind everything.
I'm in love with the singer. I just love that voice.
Somebody,needs to put Brittany on a duett with Russell Allen or Jorn Lande,that would be some epic shit.
i agree any of those 2 guys would be awesome with brit !
greekfreak1980 I agree, by the way she have a duet with Fabio Lione and is awesome too
Yeah! It should be awesome! Hmm... What about Eric Adams? ;-D
If she did a duet with Hansi Kursch it would probably destroy the Northern Hemisphere.
That somebody should be Tobias Sammet. Get her on the next Avantasia album. Lande, Sammet, Kiske, Catley and her.
Thanks for coming to Europe/Germany. Weinheim was totally great. Hope to see you again soon.
I highly recommend everyone I know (and all those I don't) to go and see you live on stage.
The guys really know how to play with power and Brittneys voice is absolutly fantastic.
Next time you have to play a full set.
Waiting for a new album and till then rocking to the last and old ones \m/
from spain a greeting,the only female metal singer who really sings heavy metal,thank you
Fuckin’ eh! Love seeing Canucks represent in the power metal scene! Loving her belted power vocals, so epic!
Holy shit, these guys are incredible. Love the vocals on this girl, amazing
this voice touch the sky
Doing my usual Archers binge today. Yall blow my fucking mind. All the time. Thanks 🤘🖤
Abandon this sun, what’s done is done, and time will go on and on

Feel like im shell shocked ffs
this is what heavy metal is about.... cool as fuck!
Nada mas que decir que adoro esta banda!!!🖤✨🤘🏻
Unleash the Archers & Battle Beast currently destroying my ears and it's glorious
EerieDemonble Two of the best female-fronted bands out there right now. Hell, two of the best bands out there period.
For me Epica is number one.
Mine, too ♥♥
Yes, and I will go see both of them in two weeks! I can't wait.
same here :D
"Guys i don't care what the music video is about as long as we have leather jackets"
the leather jackets are a requirement
lol
I love this song. Had it on my phone all year. I'd always imagined a music video for it being centred around vampires. "Abandon the Sun, What's Done is Done, and Time will go on, on"
Jesus Christ first time hearing this song... mother of God.
@Napalm Records ... PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE send these guys on a tour of the east coast of the United States!!!!!!!!
*all over America

UNLEASH THE ARCHERS! LEGION! HAIL!
Unleash the Archers is without a doubt my FAVORITE band of all time.
I need to see them live! Amazing! I cannot wait for the new album!
My all time favorite band too! Even before this album came out last year. I've known about them. I just wish they would tour in Nashville, TN.
No shit!! I think Canadians are scared of the south. Finally got to See Devin Townsend in Nashville earlier this year.
Awesome, and that sucks cuz I play bass and I would definitely want to talk with him.
Hey how's it going!?
Haha! Nikko is their bassist. I'm dying XD Smooth one.
I wanna be respectful and emphasize how great this music is, and it is... but man, she is incredible and I'm talking about a LOT more than the music... which is great.
The fate of us all, lies deep in the dark, when times stands still at the Eye-Ron Hill!
... Oh, different song?
Still good.
Please continue.
