Vocal Coach reacts to LEPROUS - Slave (Live At Rockefeller Music Hall)

[@brendanl1589]

"It's so unnecessary, but in the best way" Welcome to prog :)

[@Psycorde]

Prog that's actually progressive

[@lorensw210]

A soon as she said it i scrolled down to see the comments lol

[@Qgal5kap123]

Just like early Opeth used to be good.

[@arminhess1512]

Leprous shows that Scandinavia (Norway in this case) is a huge pool of prog in all its extensions - great!

[@allenvrabac4827]

@@Qgal5kap123 Opeth is still good.

[@rolsen1304]

The talent in metal... These people could be stars in any genre, but they choose a narrow, not exactly mass appeal radio playtime genre where they can do their own thing. And that is the essence of metal, doing your own thing to to the very very best of your abilities. The result is a genuine expression of the soul and psyche of the musician. High art.

[@Chaps_Jr]

Metal is the most diverse, versatile genre of music

[@infamous0ne789]

AMEN!

[@Hecatom]

Dunno who said it, but Metal is a genre from Musicians to Musicians. And i have to agree with that. Metal is just full of people with passion.

[@cebadillae]

Thank you so much for listening our suggestions! Einar's voice is amazing

[@benambrose8895]

His voice in malina is amazing as well

[@YohnTheViking]

So, why two drummers? Because this was an anniversary show for Leprous, so they invited a lot of people they had worked with in the past along. Their current regular drummer is the one who went nuts at the solo, and is possibly one of the best drummers in Norway (certainly part of the discussion). That said, Leprous is just generally amazing and there are plenty more songs out there from the Rockefeller set. Contaminate Me will certainly give you something new to talk about.

[@kimeinvik]

I would dare to say among the best inn the World. Certainly among the more creative and exiting drummers to come up over the last years. Pure brilliance!

[@wesleyhudnall3353]

Thanks for that explanation.

[@andre99249]

Exactly! Saying he's one of the best drummers in Norway is saying little...this guy is a world class drummer and easily.

[@DarkMinaHarker]

2 drums because they played with Ihsahn and his band...they played together for a long time...Leprous as a support band of Ihsahn..

[@alexandrawestcott7654]

YohnTheViking why not?!! Fab. King C currently touring with 3-

[@nikovandh]

Time to listen to The Congregation and Malina albums. They are some of my personal favs. Very addicting.

[@mayolicious69]

Listen to their discography NOW! They don't have a weak song or album IMO

[@xenogorwraithblade2538]

For me, their top two albums are The Congregation and Bilateral. But I agree with mayolicios69, there really isn't a bad album or song.

[@bobbymccrary6107]

Yeah Leprous is legit! The Bilateral record is my fav.

[@rickhenderson2970]

Not only is the lead singer Norwegian, he's brothers-in-law with Ihsahn, who's a legendary figure in the metal community as he basically invented symphonic black metal in the early 90s with his band Emperor, and continues to release really avant-garde metal stuff today.

[@xenogorwraithblade2538]

I had no idea about that, that's badass!

[@XIntoxicationalX]

Wtf!!!! Sick af

[@ToreHansen]

The vocal coach for Einar, Ihsahn and Star of Ash is Einar and Star of Ash's mother.

[@GGameStrong]

Beth turned an insult into a compliment. "It is so unnecessary but in the best way". So good, so true, so metal...

[@glassprison03]

You did Leprous!!! Thank you. Einar is great, but Baard Kolstad (the drummer) is from a different planet...

[@Mandibularmenace]

Check out Chris Pennie. He does fills like these, but at 180 BPM plus and in changing meters every 5 seconds.

[@bradsteed6833]

Ex Borknagar Drummer. Was this before or after that time?

[@glassprison03]

Winter Thrice was a great album. He played with Borknagar and Leprous simultaneously, but recently dropped from Borknagar due to his other commitments.

[@bradsteed6833]

glassprison03 Ah. From what I remember he left on good terms. Either way I’m ready for another Borknagar album.

[@daglacier97colt]

Nick....

[@vigridr7614]

Einar is such a talented musician, I'm glad Leprous has evolved into the band they've become. I mean hey, when your older sister (who is amazing in her own right, too) is married to one of the biggest and most talented heavy metal musicians ever you're bound to pick some stuff up along the way! Will be waiting for "Contaminate Me" from the same show, as I'm sure many, many others will too!

[@andrewhart9310]

So glad you went with the live version. It sounds fantastic on the studio album of course, but as far as the singer is concerned, the live version really shows just how talented and fearless he is - and I feel the emotion comes through, as well. He's not afraid to use head voice, belting, falsetto, or growls, and makes it all work.

[@MitchDenham]

I love how excited you get when you hear something that surprises you.

[@MrEyesof9]

[@techfairyrina]

They are one of fav band )) I've been on several their lives, goosebumps every time )))) Vocalist is amazing!

[@HowardsCat]

That growl was more of a black metal style, while the growls you've shown previously have their roots in death metal. They tend to be more high pitched and raspy rather than low and guttural.

[@Vaultguitars]

SharaHai Fry Voice *

[@HowardsCat]

@@Vaultguitars Eh, that might be what vocal coaches and the like calls it, but if I were to refer to growling as fry voice in front of a metalhead I'd just get a blank stare. Growls are how it is referred to by fans and performers of the genre.

So glad you did Leprous. I just discovered them this year, and my mom took me to see Bent knee, Leprous and Haken for my birthday (I'm 30 she doesn't need to do these things, but shes a closet metal head too). She walked out and said, "Leprous put on one of the greatest shows I've ever seen. That was Amazing, it was so visceral, I didn't listen to their music I felt it. For Christmas I want your favorite album by them".

[@PsiPhiDan]

Yes, Tomi from Amorphis is so amazing. Going to see them tomorrow in concert! His ability to switch from growls to beautiful cleans is impressive. Not sure what would be the best song for her to do, but maybe Amongst Stars due to getting Anneke in there too!
