ELUVEITIE - DEATHWALKER 🤘😎 reaction

[@Shinobi_sac]

The band originates from Switzerland, although they focus a lot on Gaelic Lore, and use Gaulish language in some tracks (which is a mainland Europe variant of Celtic language, which is used by Irish/Scottish in the past, centred around the region of Gaul - which covered areas of France, Belgium, Switzerland, Italy, Germany and the Netherlands). The band will generally use one of three vocal styles in their songs - switching balance between the male and female vocalists to achieve this. Some songs will be more folky and generally will have the female vocalist leading, others will be more metal, with the male vocalist leading, then there will be some that balance the two. They have had 2 different female vocalists, but have maintained the same male vocalist over the years. As for instruments, the band will mix a wide range of traditional instruments in their music, including bagpipes, flutes, tin whistles, harps, violins and even a hurdy gurdy.

Very cool! Thank you for sharing that. You could take my seat in these videos with that Knowledge of music!

[@Shinobi_sac]

@@sportosp-0158 haha, it's a band I enjoy listening to, so I've picked up bits and pieces about them over the years

[@sportosp-0158]

@@Shinobi_sac I dig that for sure. And now that I know what a Hurdy Gurdy is... I found an artist named Patty Gurdy and have been listening to her for the better part of an hour. Thanks for that...

The mystery instrument is called a Hurdy Gurdy. Allegaeon - Grey Matter Mechanics

[@sportosp-0158]

I had no idea what that damn thing was. Thanks lol

Usually when you have 8 people playing/singing together it either sounds amazing, or it's a mess. Eluveitie blends so well

[@CDMS_pt]

This band is on my playlist. They are cool. 🤓👍

[@oneek]

Check their "King" out...!!

[@philshep4507]

Swiss... they're Swiss! Doesn't matter much though... They just rock, check out the whole album...

[@chrismorris6865]

The woman's voice in the background is Fabienne Erni, their new clean vocalist and harpist.

[@Soviet_Saguaro]

Seeing this band next month after waiting years! Super excited

[@lukasneuner4760]

DUDE HAVE FUN!!!! they're rad to see live, seen them a couple o' times. The sheer size of the band and all the different instruments give them a great stage presence.

[@mikebohrn6070]

You definitely need to check out the official video of Eluveitie Rebirth!

"That's two sound theories in one day, neither of which deal with abnormally sized men...."

[@gareththomas9806]

Swiss, they are swiss

[@jairdabrini]

You should react to Skyforger - Melnäs Buras

[@marcobraga68]

It is not a violin: it’s an hurdy gurdy:

[@anglicky69]

this wasn't as bad as it could've been

[@banderezztonylapore9493]

Not the best song to represent the full sound... Re-birth would be better.

[@Soviet_Saguaro]

Rebirth is actually kind of an odd song in their discography.

[@banderezztonylapore9493]

Odd... I don't think so. To me it represents all of the different sounds and styles crammed into one song. It gives a sampling of it all. That's what I mean. Not that Rebirth represents a average Eluveitie song...

[@Soviet_Saguaro]

@@banderezztonylapore9493 oh I gotcha. Sorry I misunderstood. I thought you meant it represented an average Eluveitie song haha
