Ethel Cain - Ptolemaea | FIRST REACTION (Keep or Delete?)

[@whenthepawn1999]

she’s actually making the whole album into a book and a movie! and i believe there’s gonna be a trilogy of album’s too, the next one is called “preacher’s wife”

[@mattsnotebook]

where’d you get this info😭

[@lola6121]

@@mattsnotebook she said it on her tumblr

[@earlisonline]

and preachers mother would be the final one

[@JulietMHorner]

​@@earlisonlineActually, it will be Mother of a Preacher. 😉

[@holeinthemattress]

Mother of a Preacher is the one supposed to be after Preacher's Wife@@JulietMHorner

[@preacherszdaughter]

underneath that whole instrumental there's still screaming and pleading from her they're hidden within that noise

[@jspwnco]

when I first heard it I literally YELLED

[@preacherszdaughter]

@@jspwnco i was so terrified when i noticed it, like when she was saying "no" repeatedly, i had chills all over

[@bloodybeignet7710]

[@jspwnco]

@@bloodybeignet7710 after 4:00 basically until the "i am the face of love's rage" lyrics stop

I love seeing people react to Ptolemaea for the first time

[@star_dust4056]

genuinely cried first time listening to this song

[@rob1154]

I will die to hear this song for the first time again, it is an experience You should review the album, for me Preacher’s Daughter is the best album of 2022, IT IS AN INCREDIBLE ALBUM, the production is SO GOOD

[@mattgreg0307]

YESSSS Ptolemea is ART, i definitely agree we need a short horror film from Hayden. Written and Directed, everything. The guitar breakdown and everything is my fav part. ❤ so scary tho LOL

[@cipritine]

The whole song was haunting, but by the time she was chanting make it stop, I was crying without realizing 😭

[@unusediwrfu39ri329rmejkf]

This is such a good fucking song, gives me chills everytime I hear this song

[@mirrorverses]

technically speaking august underground is when ethel dies but if you listen to the acapella version, i really do think this is where her murder starts. 1) i am the face of love's rage - invokes images of women after theyve been murdered by their partners. 2) the voice on the track and the flies to me r all her talking to death. its v the girl who loved tom gordon esque tbh. so i think this is while she's ODing and shes hallucinating conversations with death. 3) august underground then is where shes trying to run away & isaiah brings her back and closes the door on her in the attic. im of two minds, imo either she ODs/aspirates & Isaiah just chooses not to get her medical attention and lets her die. or isaiah strangled her but im waiting to see how hayden writes it.

[@bigdaddypizzapaige3000]

we need an album reaction asap, such a good album. honestly one of my favorites of all time.

[@itybit]

i love interpreting songs in my own way and sorta morphing the meaning into something i can relate to

[@brucevillaceran]

Yesss Preacher's Daughter is one of my favorite album ever, the storytelling of it all is just sad and tragic but beautiful! I would also like to see your reaction on Strangers, Sun Bleached Flies and Family Tree as they are some of my favorites!

[@jaxsondane9029]

I get goosebumps every time is hear this song

[@Bucboy1001]

This whole abum needs to be a feature film!! One of the best concept albums I have ever heard!!

[@DizzyJae]

This is one of those songs that I am in awe of, and appreciate entirely as the art that it is in every layer and respect. That being said, I could never add it to a playlist or listen to it casually in any capacity. It invokes such a deep unease and panic in my soul that to have it pop up on shuffle mode in a playlist would be..... nahhhhhhh man. This song is intentional. In the way that Ethel Cain does everything intentionally, so too does the listener have to INTENTIONALLY seek this one out (after the first listen of course). Because I couldn't imagine just having it follow anything or be followed by anything (other than its neighbours on the album). I don't think my brain could handle it either.

[@junlucas69]

I really love this also wish you filmed A House in Nebraska haha

[@Maya-gq7ub]

I can't stop listening to this song it's basically become an everyday thing for me to do now

[@Hillerytheawkwardvegan]

The guitars give doom metal, and I love it.

[@hey_michaaael]

Thoroughfare, Family Tree, and Sun-Bleached Flies next!!

[@MeganRonalee]

Thank you so much for doing this one!! Amazing

[@foreverangelvsv]

One of the best songs on the album!!! Fact!

[@Simperwolf]

u need to do Thoroughfare next! this album is so good

[@Idlestarrr]

YESS STRANGERS BY ETHEL NEXT PLEASEEEE💙

[@Pete00000]

I’ve seen a reactor skip this song in an album reaction after a few seconds:) Too freaked out

[@nowayitsjohnstamos]

WE’RE GETTING A MOVIE??? OMFG

[@mirrorverses]

also learning it's "you'd do well to say yes to me" and not "you don't have to say yes to me"

[@taylorswiftisgirlboss5062]

OKKAAAYYYYY mother

[@aleky_sundae98]

is there a vod of his reaction of a house in a Nebraska on twitch?

[@PC_18098]

yeah i need it

[@ineedacigarette1688]

She recorded flies yes

[@thehermionegrangerr]

Listening to the acapella of this song makes it even more disturbing. You can hear her screams and pleads and it's horrifying

[@Prodby_trxnyshottedinthetit]

OMGGGGGGGGGF

[@ptolemaea13]

such a cutie for reacting to mother

[@mirrorverses]

please listen to the acapella version it's so much more fucked up
