A HEAVY ERRA? - ERRA "Scorpion Hymn" - REACTION / REVIEW

[@JTCavey]

thank you! love your reacts good work

[@Austinwevo]

Who hurt you LOL. Got big mad on those vocals 💪🏼.

[@cloudrise]

Fucking LOVE IT, JT! March needs to be here already!!

[@METALBIRB]

Thanks for watching again dude! When touring can happen again, come to Toronto and you’ll see me in the middle of the mosh pit with this one 🤘🏼

[@spencerclemens7510]

Jesus man your vocals are spot on, I CANT stop listening to this album

[@surtrgio]

the start made me question if this really was ERRA for a sec lol. that Intro is definitly Meshugga inspired.

[@AirRedbox]

Yes. Meshuggah def made them want to write that part

[@nubsmcthiccc]

This whole track feels meshuggah inspired

[@benwierenga]

For sure meshuggah

[@METALBIRB]

Surprised I didn't think about it at first but yeah definitely Meshuggah inspired.

[@devili7y585]

@@METALBIRB Also the intro feels like the songs from DOOM 2016 ( The videogame, soundtracks from Mick Gordon )

[@joelgarff1112]

Now that this has dropped, I need Nik’s reaction.

[@zmby6785]

JT's gutteral is gonna destroy Nik

[@valetorix]

It's out if you haven't seen it!

[@fkuchta145]

You GOTTA listen to the end of Augment... Augment + Dementia... I know its old school ERRA, but it's an absolutely wild ride!

[@michaelklaassen6127]

One of the best metalcore songs of all time

[@Dilpil01]

I'm surprised he he only listened to half of it. I think a majority of fans will state Augment is by far their best and most progressive album.

[@longpastgone]

One of the most overrated prog-mc songs

[@brennanlundie8649]

As soon as he said "Only listened to the first half of Augment" I came down here to find this comment. Good looking out 👌

[@jbasti227]

Check out Erra - Spirits Away. Hell of a song off of Augment

[@bcog9519]

The intro 100% calls out to Doom Guy to destroy some demons 😂

[@everyjuansmells]

have you heard Dementia from the augment album? imo it's their best song ever and it will never be topped

[@benhostetter4775]

not only THEIR best song ever, but THE best song ever. Definitely what you want to listen to if you like Erra more on the progressive side, Birb!

[@sarcasm4371]

no one ever goes back to listen to Augment on these channels ):

[@RachelleReacts]

Backed

[@patrickmella6087]

Crazy good song

[@ec-fah-q-classof76]

Yeeessss. Hands down my favorite by them!

[@Sempiternal773]

What a pure banger, this album by ERRA is going to slap the scene hard. Landmvrks, Architects and ERRA got me hyped.

[@Anthony-pq4vr]

A little worried about new Architects....the singles do not have me excited

[@sarcasm4371]

@@Anthony-pq4vr same, not at all

[@thedootslayer216]

This track is awesome!

[@HyperbeastXion]

it´s so funny at the end, because everyone expects the "breakdown" to go all in, instead they just take you on a chilln journey

[@designateddriveranddragons8845]

It’s a case of subverting expectations, but in this case, I don’t think it was the right call. This song would’ve been flawless to me if it finished with a punisher

[@Aerogenic_X]

Yess .. so glad you did this . I really enjoy your videos my dude

[@davidhume4566]

Ohh man you're missing out if you've only listened to half of Augment, Impulse is also a hell of a record. Check them out if you want some more heavy erra

[@RachelleReacts]

I want the album to come out A. just because I want it to, but also B.ecause I want a more solidified Metalbirb take on ERRA. I feel like the full album will need to drop before we can have that haha

[@XandycamX]

This was so clearly influenced by their time touring with Northlane on the Alien tour and I love it

[@gSWG3R]

For sure. This sounds like Talking Heads + Vultures.

[@danielspencer4564]

I was not expecting them to ever get this heavy. Really interesting guitar riffs too. And JT getting maddd on this one. Love it

[@dubstebz]

Augment is their masterpiece and Impulse is amazing too.

[@justfetch]

You spelled Drift wrong

[@chrisbarker8513]

It’s up 😂

[@davidgarvin1889]

I agree augment is my fav and impulse is sick. This song is pretty sick too I like it a lot

[@sarcasm4371]

@@justfetch Augment and Impulse are way above Drift when it comes to melodical guitar work and song composition.

[@ptbempire]

Ya dude this album is gonna be prime I cant wait for the drop I knew you would like this

[@ValkyrieLightwing]

I really didn't expect this from ERRA lol they've had some heavy, but damn this was sludgey. And wtf were those lows lol jeeeesus JT, did not see that coming. I think the album as a whole, is going to be really amazing as a show of their style(s), I'm so excited for it.

[@altarofcore4648]

This reminds me some old Meshuggah stuff. Love it

[@Mokk92]

Was looking for this comment! I thought the intro and first verse sounded like some messuggah too!

[@frantheravenfire]

Of all the new ERRA songs, this one is my favorite. I especially love JT's cleans in this song.

[@TheAntarcticaProject]

🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@ElRuidosoGabo]

Hey! que loco encontrarlos aquí cabros, por la cuarentena decidí abrir un canal para reaccionar y sacar covers, recién empiezo estaría genial reaccionar a algún tema de ustedes, cual consideran el mejor ? ;)

[@TheAntarcticaProject]

@@ElRuidosoGabo Sería genial que reaccionaras a una canción nuestra 🔥. Podria ser "Gemini" o la que quieras en realidad. Suerte y éxito con tu proyecto 👏👏

[@FireBlitz8404]

Well I, for one, absolutely LOVE all their songs.

[@brettcochran9677]

Asleep At The Helm dropped a new single "Outsiders", that song takes you on a journey and I was super impressed.

[@brettcochran9677]

However, if you're wanting super heavy with creativity, then listen to Sentinels with their new song "Inertia". it is a banger.

[@ptbempire]

Cant wait for this shizzzz

[@teiwaz656]

First riff reminds me qo much of Meshuggah- Dancers do a discordant system and that's not a bad thing!

[@BdaB164]

Only listened to the first half of Augment!? Baby what is you doinnnnnn!?

[@kttyfl1p]

loving the upside down afterburner vinyl in the back

[@alexmeza2810]

I love this channel! Not all songs are made to be bangers... take Pink Floyd for example, some songs you listen to and your like wtf is this, but if you listen to the whole album it makes sense. I feel like that’s what the last erra song you listened to was

[@enchilada93]

Dude you gotta listen to Impulse and Augment. I like new Erra, but the first two albums will always be personal faves of mine.

[@kttyfl1p]

i've been waiting all day for this reaction. best single so far, this album is gonna be so GOOD

[@fanzarelli1319]

It already dropped. Its an ep

[@seth_owens]

@@fanzarelli1319 you're so wrong lmao. Where did you get this information? And where's your proof it dropped? Like it's not even out on Apple music or anything 😂 it's a full length album coming March 19

[@fanzarelli1319]

Seth owens there is an ep on spotify so if spotifys wrong I guess I am too

[@fanzarelli1319]

I only glanced at it this morning. It's labeled as a ep but I guess its just all their singles put together. I just looked again

[@TheDjentleman77]

So good!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@thescottallen]

Have you heard their album Augment? I think that whole album is right up your alley.

[@thescottallen]

Pulse would be a stand out track for sure.

[@INFINITEILLUSIONaus]

Seriously incredible song right?1 I can't wait for this album to drop

[@DylNyeTheDrummerGuy]

Ooh they brought out the djent stick for this one 💪😎

[@LukaTheDon77]

I really dug House of Glass because it had really sweet ambiance and chill sections to break up the craziness, the atmosphere reminded me a little of The Haze by Thornhill, JT kills it on that song with cleans. Divisionary for me took 5 listens or so to appreciate everything they did. The fact that Jesse KILLED his vocal parts while simultaneously playing that complex tapping riff blew my mind. I think they found a good way to blend their voices together in a song rather than them having separate parts. The ending where they harmonize is really beautiful to me too as a singer.

[@slothman300]

Just heard this so I had to see if anyone else seen this and I’m glad I’m not the only one😎😎

[@jayjd1996]

The beginning sounded like a doom song

[@brayforte96]

Just waiting to see JT’s comment 👀

[@dilloncady35]

Least favorite single released, but love this band & super stoked for the album!

[@davidgarvin1889]

Dude do rebirth by erra, it’s my fav song by them. You need to give augment and impulse a listen all the way through honestly

[@MrBCR182]

Love your reactions man but how have you not heard to Impulse or Augment properly! Albums gonna be so diverse it’s exciting

[@huntermengel2683]

sir you need a coaster under that cup!

[@TundraCH]

Cool to hear you like Skyline, Drift is a great album

[@sarcasm4371]

Impulse and Augment though (:

[@Eliteco3]

this song is absolutely dirty 🔥

[@Aerogenic_X]

Those rifts bear 4;26 take you back to drift from then to now

[@rippermalone]

Probably my favourite of the singles. They should go full heavy more often

[@drummerAVA]

The outro has a huge Northlane “Paragon” feel... not complaining.

[@shakeeljackson7113]

Fucking awesome👌

[@steveg570]

Please check out: VCTMS - Carefully // Caged (feat. Darius Tehrani) (Darius is from SPITE)

[@Nowak27]

Interesting. I’m one of those folk who gravitate more towards Divisionary and House of Glass. I’m super happy with how diverse they are with this record. If all songs were like Snowblood and Scorpion Hymn I would probably get bored.

[@heatinmyharbl4]

Cannot stress to you enough how much you need to listen to the 2nd half of Augment, Dementia in particular

[@adecakaship2486]

Good review as always. If you feel like listening to some good riffage and weird timings check out Sentinels - Inertia !

[@mprior93]

Huge periphery Tool and Meshuggah vibes

[@1SecondToLight]

Just admit already that you prefer JT vocals a lot more than Jesse's))) guess my all-time erra favs so far: 1) Eye of God, 2) Crimson, 3) Luminesce, 4) Disarray, 5) Dreamcatcher/Dementia/Pattern Interrup. WIll admit that I am not too hyped by all of the new singles, I am still interested to listen their new album. And yes, the album this time seems really diverse.

[@sarcasm4371]

damn no Render the Void

[@jasonlovesmusicreacting882]

Got heavy Volumes/Veil Of Maya vibes in the first half as far as the downtempo guitar work goes. JT got near After The Burial vibes with those vocals. Killer track! I just started reacting to some music and I did this one btw. Low quality videos so far. You got any tips as far as editing, thumbnail, screen recording goes?

[@voxextremos22]

All of those bands share one common influence Meshuggah this sounds a lot like Mesgugahh

[@xBlade173]

I think the outro/breakdown was good and had a full sound, but the weak point for the track. Didn't hit the spot like the rest of the track did.

[@CassetteMelody]

Yip, they could have done so much more with it instead of minute long fade out lots of parts of this song are just lazy writing tbh. The lack of well written transitions or the absence of them really makes most of the parts fall flat without build ups and drops

[@emmetmcnamee5227]

Definitely northlane vibes on that intro. Very cool then it turned into meshuggah hahaha

[@ghostgate82]

Silent Planet vibes!!!

[@CvltReapr]

It’s a random local band but you should react to Jynx any song. And ZØUME The sauce ft Tommy from Jynx. Jynx will be releasing a song with Fever 333

[@sevandobo]

React to the nee Sentinels track. Slaps harder than my step dad.

[@dandi-setiawan622]

😍😍😍😍😍

[@anoceanbetweenus89]

Fat better than any material I’ve heard from this band. Have such a hard time getting into them too, but if they go this direction I can dig it.

[@stevensternberg7053]

I think you need to react to some more Dillinger Escape Plan lol, highlight the classics again

[@geordihills]

That low 🤤

[@DrewPwnage]

Reminds me of “The Ghost Inside”

[@amandussvanstroem8906]

Lol, how?

[@Sunwalker98]

Hey man, I think if you haven’t heard all of augment or impulse, you are really missing out severely. If your taste is more directed into the more proggy, creative riff style, they def nail it with those 2 albums. You should really listen to Dementia. It’s basically considered the best Older Erra song amongst the big fans.

[@chuckclark3214]

Yeah, I have to say House of Glass is my favorite, as well.

[@Desekratedd]

Do you always record at night

[@Dippedinblackink]

I expected such a heavier breakdown based on how this song was. Other than that the song slaps.

[@chrisbarker8513]

Wasn’t really feeling this one. But I know this album is going to be killer anyways 👍

[@TheSOLIDCRIMSON]

how come no one reacts to Imminence?

[@PandafyMe]

With how heavy the song was, im pretty disappointed with the “breakdown”

[@KristianC1994]

ERRA meets Meshuggah meets Tool meets Veil of Maya meets VOLA?

[@TheSVERguy]

I agree House of Glass is just a banger from start to finish, this song will go in the playlist but not amazingly great

[@patrickmella6087]

House of glass is perfection dude.. if you’re comparing every song to that it’s gonna naturally fall short.

[@sarcasm4371]

I prefer Snowblood tbh

[@elijahmelendez8341]

Northlane meets Silent Planet haha

[@amvibes9633]

I don't think Erra will ever put out a better album than their first two. Impulse is stillll so good. It just has such a beautiful sound to it. Augment didn't stand the test of time for me quite as much but it's still a banger of an album. Since losing their vocalist after Augment they kinda started sounding more generic and I lost interest in them. I need Impulse 2.0 If you haven't heard either of their first two albums then idk wtf you doing

[@zmby6785]

ah yes, Meshuggah goes metalcore

[@canadianmooseplays]

Damn. I want to love Erra so badly but just none of there songs have done it for me yet :(

Like i dont understand, what else can this band do to make you in. Besides already being one of the most creative bands in existence, not opinion, fact. You say you like House of Glass more than this song. But you still dont say you are in. Idk man, once again your very conflicting with your opinion when it comes to ERRA.

Dude, don’t be upset because he doesn’t like the band as much as you do.. We all have different tastes. 🤣

[@vagrantender]

@@taj1997 it just doesnt make sense because music he does like, sounds alot like this current erra, so if the music is the same yet creatively better then it has to be that he has beef with the band or something

@@vagrantender Oh boy lol just because my opinion doesn't correlate with your opinion doesn't mean they're conflicting AND especially when you make bold statements like "Most creative bands in existence" and saying it's a *fact* lol.
