FIRST REACTION to LACUNA COIL (Layers Of Time) ▥▥ ⌚

About time I got around to this one. If this is what I'm in for then sign me up. Reacting to Lacuna Coil was a very pleasant surprise. 'Layers Of Time' was super fun and threw me back a bit.

Calling all Coilers....let’s see if we can get Cristina to join the premier chat. 🤟🏻

[@Denien82]

My introduction to them was Swamped when it was released (I was in high school... I'm feeling old... 🤣) , but I'm not an hard core fan. How does it rate for coilers? :)

[@The2econd3vil3xes]

"Because I can count bars; haters gonna hate." Love your dry humor, man.

[@davidhenriquez4939]

Lacuna Coil's catalog is huge, with a lot of variety ... and Cristina Scabbia is one of the coolest and at the same time humble people in the metal scene. If you ask me, when it comes to metal with female vocalists, the biggest names are Nightwish, Epica, Whitin Temptaton and Lacuna Coil. So it was about time there was a video of them around here! 🥳🥳🥳

[@emmullgn]

Can't forget about Jinjur

[@clausandersen8187]

@@emmullgn yes jinjer is indeed amasing and i get what u mean. and they are getting where they deserve too be. but i do belive that nightwish, within temptation, epica and lacuna coil are bigger names currently. dont get me wrong jinjer needs too be on that list, and they will be in time. the others have... well been noticed for longer by alot more ppl. so a list of biggest names, i wouldnt put em on just yet. list of the greatest? 100% hell yes :) plzz do not take this as any critique of any of the bands mentioned. or bands i have yet too hear of :) this is my personal opinion with what i currently know :) and i do love all the names mentioned. hope someone can add some more :)

[@davidhenriquez4939]

@@emmullgn Oh yes, like Jinjer, there are many "female fronted" metal bands that I could mention as "great" (older, contemporary, and newer than those four). But I personally see these 4 as the most influential in a whole generation of fans and artists. They are role models and influences for many newer bands, also the singers (including the 3 from Nightwish) were and are inspiration for many new artists. For me personally, they are like the "Big Four" of female fronted metal 😁. And yes, technically Lacuna Coil has two singers, so "female fronted" might not be an appropriate term. But "femel co-fronted" may be very strange 😂.

[@ChukapiMagnetar]

What about Arch Enemy? I mean, I'm blown away by them

[@emmullgn]

@@ChukapiMagnetar which one of their singers are you favorite?

Please don’t be afraid to look at older lacuna coil like our truth :) Christina’s voice just send me to another plane of existence 😍

[@JarodCain]

I'd honestly recommend a live version of Senzafine but I don't know of any really good ones online. But yeah, their older catalog is fantastic.

[@Grenade45]

Go further back than Our Truth... that's mid career. In a reverie times we're fantastic too

[@michaelhartman738]

Yeah , I pretty much like all of it ! 🎧🔥🤘😎

[@CoreyReviews]

“…oh hell yes.” Literally me every single time I listen to Lacuna Coil

[@dragonreader3817]

Favorite Lacuna Coil song “Trip the darkness”. So good.

[@rocioiribe5841]

That song is so hypnotic

[@Tahatrolli]

Agreed for sure :)

[@eiriknordahl5112]

My fav as well mate!

[@adamhaywood4808]

loved lacuna coil since I played Vampire:The Masquerade and Swamped was used in one of the night clubs

[@thomasbrailey]

Hey old school! Having them on the soundtrack was one of the highlights of that game.

[@jay2ssrstt]

That sound track was amazing and that song in particular. Was my first symphonic metal experience and it's been one hell of a journey since then.

[@No.Man.Is.An.Island9]

@@jay2ssrstt Same! :)

[@bobsalami9996]

As a Vampire the Masquerade larper, It brightens my heart to hear that Bloodlines having the Lacuna Coil poster and "Swamped" playing at the credits brought you to an amazing band! Cheers.

[@RooStephan]

Can we talk about the fact that Cristina Scabbia, Marco Hietala, and Troy Donockly are on the same Ayreon album together?

[@giljensen1132]

Which one?

[@giljensen1132]

@@RooStephan thank you

[@spitfyre8772]

Very cool of you to react to a Lacuna song. I'm shocked a bit you've never listened. I kinda think that you will find LC to be another rabbit hole as their music has evolved quite a bit from how they started. Great as usual Chase.

[@Yohao88]

I loooooove their cover of Enjoy the silence. ♥

[@minimaltrace]

An instance where the cover may be as good, at least, as the original .. the female voice really does give it a totally different feeling and i LOVE it ..

[@valeconku]

Italian and long time Coiler here, Lacuna Coil are amazing and their have been around for so long! There are so many songs to reach to. Glad you liked them :)

[@meee2335]

what iblove about this band is that their catalogue is huge, and each albul is waayyyyy different than the other, and you know it's a lacuna voil song even if it's different

[@frankcastle5076]

i've been a fan of this band for years and have greatly enjoyed watching them gain popularity. they are definately on a very short list of bands that i truly enjoy watching other people discover. Chase, your smile as you listened says it all. enjoy the ride, i can't wait to see what you choose next.

[@Lillithism]

Yeeeeeees!!! Thank you so much for doing a Lacuna Coil reaction. The band is amazing and Cristina is the coolest person ever!!! Not a surprise she is really good friends with Simone, Sharon, Tarja, Elize and Floor!!

[@cannotwaittoseedavanteadam4301]

They have a lot of good songs. I love their Enjoy The Silence cover. A few others I like are Spellbound, Tripping The Darkness and Heaven’s A Lie.

[@danielkirk1837]

FINALLY! Been waiting for a good Lacuna Coil reaction! One of the 1st metal bands I ever listened to! Will always and forever have love for LC!

[@kurtthevillain6012]

Your “Vocal Shoutout” made my day, love them all. Keep doing what you do, Chase

Yes!! Been waiting for this! 🤘🏻

[@davidmollan5210]

I literally just got that Spiritbox shirt in the mail today. So excited to see some major love for my new favorite band! Loved your reaction videos to them as well. Cheers bro!

[@TauriReacts]

Oh look another band I adore, yesss!! So glad you got to them Chase, looking forwards to seeing more Lacuna Coil from you! 🤘🤘

Swamped, Heavens a Lie and Spellbound. Go get em Chase!

[@bishopsteiner7134]

Hard to find good quality live videos of those. All great songs though

[@ZachComa]

Back in the day, I knew my gf at the time was a keeper because Heaven's a Lie was one of her fave songs, now she's my wife. \m/

[@Blayz001]

I'm a big fan of Cristina's voice.

glad to see some LC on the channel! keep kicking ass Chase.

[@ChaseCarneson]

Appreciate that Bobby. Thanks for supporting

[@TotalxTroll25k]

I cant believe I hadnt found your channel before. You seem to know all of my favorite reactors. Glad im here now though

[@michaelrue1400]

94? How come I never heard of them before the last ten years or so? My first time hearing this particular song as well. The heaviest one I've heard from them. Same reaction: Woah!

[@ChaseCarneson]

Yeah man, pretty rad though

[@deadlyxballerina]

gotta be blood, tears, dust live! the version from the 119 show in london! it really show cases what Lacuna Coil live is all about!

[@allenhuling598]

So glad you finally found your way around to Lacuna Coil, very talented band and for some reason not as well known as they should be! Christina's voice and the music structure have always been the draw for me....enjoy the journey!!

[@theparadisesnare]

Man, one of my best friends showed me this band years ago, and i kinda shrugged them off, it didn't really take for me back then, but this song is fucking epic and heavy. Very different from what i remember. Thanks for this!

[@rsprenger79]

Awesome reaction! As usual ;-) Glancing over the comments here, there is not much more I can add, except: I absolutely LOVE their cover of Enjoy The Silence.

[@GearlessChris]

I haven't heard these guys since "Spellbound" came out, I need to catch up.

[@BrianAustin-rm1ef]

I haven’t listened to this band for 20 years (ok, I’m dating myself), but I loved this song. Heavy, some real groove, and her vocals are stunning. Definitely going on the playlist. Great reaction, and thanks for doing it my friend. These bands are going to owe you royalties because you are dramatically expanding my library 😂

[@TotalxTroll25k]

Lacuna Coil is a band that i liked a couple of of their songs like Closer, then got really into them last year and this song had me hooked during that time

[@bennettroofing3259]

First visit to your channel…you got my subscribe when you said “I know something’s gonna happen because I can count bars…haters gonna hate “ 😂😂😂 Brilliant lol

[@aleytiger06]

I'm SO happy you finally reacted to them! I saw them on the Delirium tour and they are FIRE. I would recommend anything from their latest album, Black Anima. Love you Chase

[@michaelbecker7684]

Chase ,great reaction! I was lucky ,in that the last concert I saw was Lacuna Coil in Nov.2019 and 3 days earlier , at the same venue, I saw Jinjer. Can't wait for this sh*t to be done with !

[@TUBBYMAXX]

Love ya Chase !!! Be well Sir !!!!

[@RawrGabbysaurus]

While early-era LC is my favorite stuff by them, this current iteration of the band is something that's just amazing to listen to.

[@EmilyApmadoc]

So happy to see your reactions to this fantastic song. Yes! Cristina Scabbia is a vocal QUEEN! She's super chill in interviews and on her Twitch channel too. Listen to "Never Dawn" and "Save Me" if you haven't yet! Their catalog is amazing!!!!

[@corporategoth]

Yes! An Italian friend introduced me to them in high school, waaaaay back in 2002. I've literally grown up with them, and their progress has been incredible to watch.

[@ClaudiaEhrhardt]

I got into them with their first EP and saw them many times. I remembered their first time at Wacken... Their first headliner club Tour...

[@marcobraga68]

Hi! Please note this song and this video is strictly related to another video/song reckless. You can consider part 1 and part 2

[@ChaseCarneson]

Okay awesome thank you for that.

[@metallikat05]

“Reckless”’s chorus is one of the more haunting lines Cristina has sung. It’s outstanding.

[@samjacobs2151]

YOOOOO love the Spiritbox shirt! They are so good.

[@magicmicah27]

OMG yes, great song to start with, one of my faves

[@Midwest-MP-Eng]

Oh man...another very deep catalog to dive into here. Been hooked on Lacuna Coil since first hearing Our Truth on Guitar Hero World Tour 10+ years ago!

[@webcrawler2007]

My first experience with them was Closer on GH3! Awesome band

[@meee2335]

i was hooked since their first ep's.. especially the one with "senzafine"

[@pupperoni1500]

I learned about this Band years ago because someone told me I look like Cristina Scabbia. Funny because my name is Christina 😄

Saw Them live in the 90s with Paradise Lost and Moonspell. Great show. Andrea and Christina seemed so shy but the music was great. This song was the first I heard in a while. Great.

Been listening to LC since their debut EP in the late 90s. I still play the hell out of Dark Adrenaline!

Welcome to Lacuna Coil, my dude. Vast catalog, good times, fun for the whole family. 👍

[@2abug]

Great! I love Lacuna Coil. The singer, Cristina Scabbia, is awesome! Great vocalist and big nerd 🤘🏻🎮

[@GeorgeGrivas]

Welcome to Cristina's world. I'm really looking forward to you reacting to their older material.

[@travisnat]

Yesss Lacuna too, welcome aboard!👩🏻‍✈️ You gotta do Swamped, to get a glimpse of the ‘classics’!

[@sithil]

So depends if you looking more recent or some of the older catalog. More recent is a live of "Blood, Tears, Dust" - kzbin.info/www/bejne/qKjMk4CJiLNql8U&ab_channel=CenturyMediaRecords A little older is a live from Wacken 2009, "Spellbound" - kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYG1n2ytadZqZrM&ab_channel=Metallwish

[@F1nalspace]

This is it! Blood, Tears, Dust would be best candidate for a "live" reaction video.

[@TDBoedy]

Cristina is a contralto - which is why you're instantly in love with it.

[@damienmaynard8892]

Wow! I actually knew you were going to mention the synth on top before you said it! Great minds? (LOL!) Love the nasty bass! Good shout out to the other reactors! More collabs coming? Not that you need help, I just think getting your opinion and Julia's or Rebecca's and/or Tanks would be awesomer! (yes, that is a word 'coz I said so!)

[@Velkairiwyth]

Yeerah :) keep exploring, lacuna Coil are great. Their newer stuff to my knowledge has become a lot heavier with the guy singing a lot harsher heavier vocals. Digging it too!

[@paulwakefield]

Yep. lacuna Coil are awesome, Trip the Darkness, Losing my religion cover are great songs but they have a big catalog to get through... well worth some more playtime Chase!

[@Kaeg]

I have absolutely loved Lacuna Coil ever since I first heard "Our Truth." When Cristina Scabbia sings, it (in ways) reminds me of when I got to church...weird Catholic thing, I know. It's just some of their chord choices married with some of her vocal stylings just reminds me of Sunday morning mass in a way.

[@alexanderds9029]

I loved this reaction on so many levels. After Epica, Lacuna Coil is my favourite band, one of those few I like more with every album while still loving the old albums. Love Veneficium and Save Me from this album Black Anima too.

[@OlettaLiano]

Finally. Something on YT that's worth watching. 🤣

[@AMongoose87]

I feel lucky to be able to say that I saw these live in 2016 when they were touring the album "delirium" and it was phenomenal. If you do more LC please check out house of shame (from that same album) and trip the darkness, which is an earlier song. Thanks for another great video 👍🤘

[@brockstanford7608]

Around 2000, I was not into heavy metal. A friend recommended Nightwish and Lacuna Coil. I was not ready for Nightwish, but Lacuna Coil clicked. It was my gateway band to Heavy Metal. Horns up! \m/

[@Antonio-tn9cl]

As Italian proud of them!!!

[@tombland3779]

They are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 live

[@thanorodd5663]

I've never been a HUGE Lacuna Coil fan, but I find their work fascinating and fun. Really looking forward to your reaction and insights as usual. Have a damn good day, see you then.

[@thanorodd5663]

Okay, I'd never heard this song, and it's actually entirely sick. A surprise to me even as I was familiar with the band. Awesome.

[@VladShadz]

Oh, mah dude, you're in for a treat, you definitely need to check more of their stuff... Our Truth, Swamped, Heaven's a lie, Trip The Darkness, I don't even know where to stop, most of their stuff is awesome.

[@aeronomer8389]

This is a great band and they have a big catalog. I hope you listen to more of them.

[@andreascorsten3249]

Nice shirt by the way!!!

[@jeremywainscott6528]

For a live video, that one that showed up at the end of your video (Nothing Stands In Our Way from the 119 show) is excellent. For music videos, Enjoy The Silence (Depeche Mode cover and one of my favorite covers ever done), Our Truth, and Swamped are all wonderful.

[@felipelara81]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS Lacuna Coil is such a fantastic band, one of my top favs along Epica and old Nightwish

Perhaps with you doing this song we will see more reactions. This band is amazing. I've loved them since 2003 when I first saw "Heavens a lie" on headbangers balls.

[@ChaseCarneson]

I hope so. They deserve all the attention.

[@stefabkk]

Haha, fist time I heard that pre-chorus, it heavily reminded me of the beginning to "Blind" by Korn.

[@lilithrose8048]

Lacuna Coil is amazing! And the song choice is 10/10. This is gonna be 🔥🔥🔥

[@Friala]

Maki the bassist is an insanely good song writer. He’s also one of the funniest guys in the scene and the whole band are so awesome. Cristina has so much energy on stage and is a fierce front woman. That 1:19 show is special btw so definitely worth watching. I was there and it was a legendary night and I’ve seen them live 15 times before heh.

[@Neal_YouTube]

Great reaction and break down/analysis (as always), Chase. Really enjoyed this.

[@camillelejosne8010]

Lovin' to see you How Italian (i'm french) Metal can interest you. Cristina is a Diabolous voice and an excuisite person. (sorry for my english ^^)

[@Yeakuaf]

One of my favorites from the album Black Anima. "Veneficium" is another great one, but unfortunately I can't find a live version with a decent audio quality.

[@Marin_Huron]

I can only hope that another human being will ever look at me the same way Chase looked at LC at about 10:45! That is the complete adoration, acceptance, acknowledgement, understanding and pride that goes on deeper than the usual superficial levels. Also Lacuna Coil are more than a band and more than a style - they are an essence of pure life.

[@Ionatan667]

It's an older song; so, I couldn't find a live performance unfortunately. But heres a link to the studio version of "Distant Sun," one of my favourite songs by them. . - kzbin.info/www/bejne/p6TOoGp3qZmAr80

Perhaps, my fav metal band. Imho, their best live performance is "Swamped" (Loudpark 2007)
