REACTING to HOLDING ABSENCE (Afterlife) 💀♥🔥

[@lucaswoodland3422]

Loved your Gravity reaction, loved this one too, and hope you enjoy the record as a whole! Your face on that first chorus was a great reminder as to why we make music in the first place 😊✌🏻

[@novaasher1185]

Cheers! x

[@Eightphoenix]

Lucas, you absolutely killed it on this record. Probably my AOTY for 2021 and it's not even summer yet. Can't stop listening to it!

[@lucasodn]

I’ve experienced the lost of my stepfather due to covid. Thank you for making this song. It makes me feel positive about meeting him again

[@sadiemason-martin5340]

Lucas you killed it on this song, so did the rest of the band love you all

[@schwertgruss129]

His smile

[@cyrusunderscore7315]

Ideal reaction video. Regular pauses, listening back on parts, actually looking like you're engaging with the music and not just nodding along to it, not to mention adding so much insight with your own knowledge of music and songwriting. Thank you for articulating what makes this song so good

[@jeastcuts]

Mate honestly your smile at the first drop made it for me. Thank you so much for the reaction and for the shout out! I’ll try not to request too many. But always here to suggest more! Big love man!

[@novaasher1185]

Chase, I really appreciate you. Thank you so much for even taking time filming and editing the video within the span of less than 24 hours we dropped our comments. I'm so glad you enjoyed this one. You asked if all the tracks in the new album sounded like Afterlife, well most but not all sounded like this albeit the aesthetics remain the same. And since you like their sound, I'd be happy to recommend some other bands that are similar in vein and that you've never done on your channel before. I'll send a DM if you'd like to explore more. Damn I'm vibing with your enthusiasm here 😆✌

[@monstercookies2726]

Celebration Song is my personal favorite.

[@mylife1221]

i loved watching the look of joy on your face whenever something new happened, literally felt the exact same on my first listen. this was the song that got me obsessed with them lol

[@AshStGreen]

Your reviews all day long mate - these always hit so good 🙏 thank you so much! Will be taking you up on that dinner soon my man x

[@shinokugt]

PLEASE do Nomoreroses by them, it's so great and I think you would love it. Such an amazing band (and album).

[@jordanrice6942]

the album is incredible, was immediately hooked after celebration song

[@Papatoothwort]

Nomoreroses is STUPIDLY good.

[@drewminor1920]

Yeah. Straight chills on the last lines of nomoreroses. So good.

[@maximus_siberius]

Hell yes, Chase. That is a great surprise. I'm glad that you are coming back to this band. Totally forgot about them when I set up my Spotify last year, but KZbin was kind enough to suggest this music video to me. Love the new album, love this song especially and hope for more Holding Absence on your channel.

[@White2098]

Fun fact: Their song "Purge" features Sleep Token's singer Vessel on piano as well as a tiny bit of backing vocals towards the end of the song.

[@KandyGor3]

So I listen to Spotify smart shuffle in my car sometimes (which will play recommended songs) and this one came on and I like jolted my eyes down from the road and swerved just to add this song to my playlist

[@Wilternative]

This is THE song to beat of 2021 so far for me.

[@thornsmrl]

Amazing group, amazing reaction. The album is a must-listen, even if it's off-camera, because it's just wow

[@oh_hey_its_b]

But like, where the hell have I been? Loved this, can't wait for more, and thanks for exposing me to yet another awesome group. 😊👍

[@thenextfive6647]

What a jam!!! My hips making bets my feet can't cheque. Lovely song. Accurate review!!!

[@mattiassilvola8957]

Yes!! New good music for me. Great reaction as alwayes👍

[@TAB3S]

Love the reactions man. I think you do an excellent job of balancing analysis, and just having a good time jamming 🤘🏼 Keep doing what you do.

[@brennt7796]

Like a Shadow is a banger too

[@XandycamX]

Lucas Woodland is, indeed, a strikingly handsome man

[@AnnaCurser]

look how happy he is

[@tsj_1994]

Onslow - Let me Rust (Sean Harmanis, Make Them Suffer, side project) Super Deftone vibes, super unique. Refreshing song for the scene.

[@andre8273]

Really good, the sound quality could be better but it's a 9/10 for me

[@masonsolbrig1336]

If you liked this, give the last 3 tracks (an intro and outro to a 7 minute song) a listen all at once, its powerful and definitely will be a different kind of reaction for the channel - Phantoms, Mourning Song, Title Track by Holding Absence

[@acampillo]

Mourning Song is incredible. I'm not usually into long songs and this went on without noticing it was that long. Ah! Pick some tissues Chase, because wow 🥺

[@__Raze]

Great reaction, I'd love to see you react to In Circles by them, was one of the other singles of this new album and is probably my favourite (and is a softer track than usual), I think you'd really love it. Can't wait to see what else you've got coming up ✌️

[@tonyharmon8512]

A band for you to consider is Wishbone Ash and their song The King WIll Come from the album Argus. They are believed to be the first band to use a dual lead guitar and this prog album was released in 1972. I don't believe it has ever been remastered so you have the original compression to about 30 db of headroom but it is still a masterpiece.

[@brittjannesath2539]

The chorus was a killer 🔥🔥

[@davidhenriquez4939]

Wow, I really liked those vocals! Awesome song. Love finding new music in your channel. I know there is just too much music out there, but I would like to keep suggestion the band Vintersea for a future reacción...they are just stuck in my head and I want everyone to give them a try 😅, especially since they are kind of starting yet, and are not that big, but not for lack of talent, trust me!

[@clarkerm]

Check out Parting Gift (no longer active unfortunately) but they have some great tracks. Vein & Rensing is where I'd start.

[@ManTheRampartsBaby]

React to penance by holding absence. It’s such a powerful song.

[@xAlphaRob]

Does anyone know where I can find that sleep token shirt?

[@ledddedd9137]

Man, would love to see you check out Resolve - Of Silk and Straw. Just recently popped up on my personal radar and has me totally hooked, and hits on your moving forward vibe from this song

[@najrenchelf2751]

Finding songs like this where you just light up is the BEST! I found songs like that on the new albums of Evanescence and Blackbriar (released this month)! Please check them out! 🤩

[@kayleisellers9349]

Please react to their song In Circles!! My husband and I and our friends have it on repeat these days. Soooo good!!!

[@Wilternative]

8:27 Oh you just wait :)

[@sdpedroalves]

Please react to nomoreroses which was the last single before the album dropped. The greatest mistake of my life is probably my album of the year. Not a single weak moment on the entire thing. Love your videos so much man, can’t wait to see more 🙏

[@Rav3n_Edit]

PLEASE DO IN CIRCLES BY THEM!

[@kimeklund8880]

New song Imminence - Temptation Awsome song and band 🤘

[@juliehipkin8168]

You should check out there new song aching longing it’s a banger for sure

[@craigbillow]

Please check out 24 Light-Years by Vola. You will not be disappointed. Goosebumps for days. 🔥🔥🔥

[@transamphoenix]

Hey Chase. Love your reviews! I just discovered a band recently, and I think they need some recognition. They’ve been around quite awhile, but were on a hiatus until recently, and dropped a new album. This band has a lot of pain, anger, and pure emotion among them. And that definitely resonates to their music. This song gave me goosebumps so hard I thought they were going to come out of my skin. Please check out “Signal Fire” by Devil Sold His Soul. Off their most recent album called “Loss” They deserve some love. Thanks man

[@Malady]

Please react to Dissension by Nemophila.

[@AnnaCurser]

i love how positive you react to music its a real shame your discord is full of shit

[@JannikBork]

I love your analysis, man. But: Personally I‘d prefer you reacting to a song in its entirety and THEN breaking everything down. That would be the best to feel the song without the pauses. Big fan of you, keep going!

[@ChaseCarneson]

Hey there. I hear you. I really do but. I promise you that you wouldn't get the same depth of analysis on a first listen from that. It's a coin toss and I hear you on it but this is the best way to do what I want to achieve what I'm looing to do.

[@dan_the_man8327]

Hey chase, can you react to "self vs. self" from Pendolum ft. In Flames? Its a pretty nice Song 👍👍

[@ninakiewiet]

Hope you check out blind channel with dark side sure you will like that They call the style violent pop And the have 2 male singers one raps too in some songs

[@TheShitpostExperience]

Quick Q. When you revisit a band for a new song like in this case, you do go and hear the old song to get a grasp of what kind of band it was or to compare it with the new song? or do you prefeer to go blind to it to go as unbiased as you can considering the situation? Thanks and keep up the amazing content.

[@adoboFosho]

What

[@BRBauer3]

@@adoboFosho They are asking if he listens to the bands old music before hearing the new stuff as a refresher.

[@areallogo]

Bring me the horizon ? This SonG KKK

[@Blidsater]

This has nothing to do with this band buy you should check out Alley Cat with Seventh Wonder. A Swedish band with Karevik from Camelot as singer. A pretty cool song that I think you would enjoy.

[@LeatherDaddy97]

Great album from these guys.
