Wow, I never thought you'd show Anciients! They're super nice, hardworking guys from here in Vancouver. Last time they toured in ~2017 I caught them in a super cozy and intimate basement venue show for a very limited # of people but they played their butts off and were incredible. They're so deserving of any attention they get after recently re-emerging!

[@Loendt]

Wooooooooooow! That was amazing, guys! First time with this band, It's like Opeth + The Ocean + Mastodon. Great reaction! Great measures!

[@mmmnuts5645]

I was lucky enough to see them 10 years ago in Texas. They are one of the best. It's nice to see them get some of the recognition they deserve

[@Naamturd101]

People chime in a lot with "criminally underrated band" on reaction videos, but this band really does fit that bill. Would really like to see his reaction to Cloak of the Vast and Black off the same album. It's pretty rare to come across bands with this style and level of musicianship, feels like a treat every time one pops up.

[@trowabarton222]

These guys are awesome. As soon as I saw they were releasing a new album I got my preorder in. Their album Voice of the Void is amazing. I feel like if you like this you would enjoy a Scottish band called Dvne (pronounced Dune). Si-XIV is a great starting point.

[@keeponlivin81]

Saw these guys as an opener on the first Death to All tour and have been a favorite ever since! Killer dude!

[@bumblefluff79]

That was right up my street. Reminded me of a mix of Between the Buried and Me, Mastadon and with a sprinkling of Jerry Cantrell. Will definitely be checking out the rest of the album.

[@LeoMadigan-ou2le]

Great recommendation Great Measures ...thanks . Excellent song, great epic harmonies and some nice Opeth(y)/Mastodon(y) theme/riffs...gonna do a deeper dive with this band. Thanks a mill as always and keep up the great work.

[@morgothbauglir5096]

They sound like EXIST and I like it!

[@nwcustomdecals]

love this SONG!!!

[@jimmy_jam1979]

Watch the furrow in his brow release at that uplifting change @10:05. I felt the same way the first time i heard it, too 😊

[@Akindmind-oe7ol]

Great tunes today!

[@JanHjsgaard]

Hello from Denmark. Love you guys.. You should really react to Alkaloid - As decreed by laws unwritten.. Looking forward to see this reaction :p

[@No-xr7vx]

I have been trying to remember Alkaloid's name for ages, thank you!

[@danielsimard6506]

I got myself their album "Voice of the void" a while back and i did enjoy it. Not my top album, but still pretty interesting to listen to, once in a while. I'm curious to see this new album and what it sounds like as a whole.

[@guylaub8505]

Didn't know this song, it was cool. "Opethian" is a bit of an understatement ;) which bothers me a bit, I don't see much originality in it. Was a really cool song though. Will check their music thanks to your review :) I would recommend checking out Wintersun - Sons of Winter and Stars the live studio version its very musical/progy/folky death metal, with a lot of layers of instrumentation. It's a bit long but I think Judson will like it \m/

[@bad4458]

Some band. Impressive

[@benbaer3525]

No freakin' way?! New song, from a more niche band, color me surprised. Even though it isn't the newest new song from them I am in shock.

[@KC_rocka]

Very Opethic and Dream Theatrish, awesome song.

[@_Olorin]

You guys should listen to Toundra! They are a Post-Rock band from Spain (instrumental). I would suggest Magreb, I feel it's a song you would both enjoy, it's heavy, groovy and melodic with lots of guitar textures like Post-rock does

[@kahwigulum]

Oh sick, you got to Anciients! nice. Do Colored Sands by Gorguts from Montreal next. Then do Canadian Steele by Stallion (ironically from Germany) to complete your tour of Canadian metal.

[@dmdanart]

Nice shirt, Richard! (I have the same one :D) That new JFAC album is SO GOOD. I might still prefer Sun Eater, but they're both top tier.

[@luiscortes77luis]

I've never heard of this band. Thanks for the heads up. I would love to see your reaction to another Prog Metal band named Diablo Swing Orchestra - Malign Monologues. Another song from them would be Superhero Jagganath.

[@sleev3571]

3 - alien angel Super underrated band

[@No-xr7vx]

So underrated that you're the first person I've seen mention them online in over a decade! Not a very search-friendly band name either. They have some really guilty pleasures.

[@sleev3571]

@@No-xr7vx I personally love this band, and you're right, almost impossible to look up. Alien angel isn't even close to their best, just most accessible I think, glad someone else remembers them!!

[@serroche]

Wilderun - Tyranny Of Imagination is all I'm going to say, you won't regret

[@espentorp1846]

The Ocean - Pleistocene. Think you would find that quite interesting:)

[@cranboogie]

Very Opethish, and I don’t mind! 🌀🌀🌀👍👍👍

[@devmaker11]

Hey guys, i really like the chanel and i would go for Psychotic Waltz the Song "Into the Everflow" with that epic guitar solo... Greetings from Germany

[@joshmorris9908]

Never heard of them. Not bad.

[@grahamrivas2136]

That’s a sick JFAC shirt Richard.

[@ryanschindler923]

Man, you're wearing a Job for a Cowboy shirt.... we need to see some JFAC, something from Sun Eater or Moon Healer. The first two songs from Sun Eater would be a great intro since they flow into each other. Also, Persefone is another band to get to. The song 'prison skin' would be a good one, great music and lyrics too.

[@AntolioViccoli2949]

Please.. RIVERSIDE!

[@spkynk]

Space Opeth

[@DirtyMiniatures]

Good everning my beloved. I shall now give your a list of bands to choose from: Lost Horizon, Unleash the Archers, Dimhav, Sacred outcry, iced earth, borknagar. Best of luck

[@animusora]

Great song man! I wonder if you all will do Decapitated or Necrophagist?

[@animusora]

@@elleshar666 Yeah your right man! i forgot that they did

[@NutOnYoutube]

Reminds me of Inter Arma and I dont even know why

[@domlaurin675]

Listen tesseract or persefone cool prog vibe with a lot of pounding

[@lillzico77]

Check out the new releases from Wormwood with the songs "Ro"or "Stjärnfall". Great shit!

[@mattysoho]

Are the Patreon requests still in the works?

[@DonCarnage42]

Most of the song is straight beat you can feel as 3/4 or 6/8. The snare hit on the accent confuses the ear. But once you get into the groove and after multiple listens perhaps, you get into the groove.

[@kencook7564]

Versus are a bar of 7/4 , 2 bars of 4/4 or one cycle can be counted as 15/4

[@aldersmoke1]

Simple reason for the spelling: it looks cool.

[@mightyfangs]

They actually changed it from the original Ancients due to a copyright claim from another band. I have an OG Ancients shirt before the change circa 2011

[@MuddyRavine]

If you like Anciients check out Dvne

[@javieracosta2340]

let's hear buckethead on the channel

[@versesbroth2974]

For all the Opeth and Great Mesures fans, MOONLOOP is a must: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b3-uhnyBecl7ipIsi=kumMa2UXRlTMD1Km

[@8kei8]

Sounds like opeth.

[@Darker_Waters]

Sounds like progressive and more intelligently written ghost music. I like it, just not the clean vocals. And there's too much reverb on the false ones imo.Might have to check out their other stuff to get a better outstanding of the band.

[@johns14m]

definitely very Opethic lol

[@domlaurin675]

Hermétic its freemasonry

[@SuperNovaForTheBlind15]

Dark / Light Up / Down In / Out. Right / left. Before / After Above / Below. Good 👍 Bad 👎 I prefer my vibrational energies to be Higher / rather than low low ! With that said , in the beginning there’s that eastern Indian influence in the song & that can be a recipe for success herd in so many types of music 🎵 but in this case it fell short & I don’t believe it would charm any King Cobras 🐍! See how I just smoothed this over with my verbal diarrhea,,,, sometimes you think your wiping your arse , but a whole roll of toilet paper latter 🧻 it was more so like frosting a cup cake 🧁 but you just keep on going until the Job is done ✅ so many ways of (expression) G n R Beating a Dead Horse has more feeling ! Passion is my Passion not walking with the dead 😵 The fat lady hasn’t song yet !!!!

[@eliceus]

Very enjoyable. Opethish growls, nice melodies, but without the Swedes' depth or storytelling

[@domlaurin675]

You got cynic like btbam

[@ronaldschenderlein2135]

Sorry guys, am not a fan of reactors straying from their core premise. Although you really didn't stray per se but there is so much good metal out there and to react to an obscure song which there is just as much out there as well seems a waste. The song wasn't bad but I tjhought it was a mediocre Opeth clone. Still love you guys and will still view your videos and still am subsribed, have a great day!

[@sxelady]

Def also prefer when one of them have some sort of connection to the band.

[@kahwigulum]

Obscure? They toured with heavy weights like Sepultura and Lamb of God, and won a Juno (the highest award a Canadian band can win, basically a canadian grammy). Anciients are well-known and established and have been crushing the Canadian scene for decades. Manowar said it best, wimps and posers, leave the hall. You are excused.

[@ronaldschenderlein2135]

@@kahwigulum Well I guess I bow to your heavenly musical knowledge but they are obscure to me and am sure not many outside of Canada know them. I listen to music constantly and am amazed by how much there is I don't know of. I still stand by my opinion of them so just not my cup of tea and neither is Manowar so excuse me I guess...

[@No-xr7vx]

I'm not following still, what is wrong with them reacting to a band that you haven't heard of? It's so much more interesting to hear new music than the same snooze-worthy big bands.

[@ronaldschenderlein2135]

@@No-xr7vx Sorry, not that interesting to me especially if the song isn't that great.
