FIRST REACTION to OH, SLEEPER (Hush Yael) 🎤🎸🔥

[@zebuloncarpenter58]

Chase: "It really makes me smile." Everyone who knows what the song is about: 😬

[@josiahw9915]

Exactly 😅

[@ChristopherDolby]

For sure 👊😇

[@jaebassist]

I'll just leave this here, then: 😬

[@Vayde19]

The truth behind this song will forever haunt me.

[@toddf.1265]

Thank you sir, may I have another? Love Oh, Sleeper

[@propheticchaos]

Just fyi I was at the show where the video was shot. Every show is like this even to this day.

[@VicTheMetalDrummer]

I did not expect this song AT ALL today. What a great throwback. The subject matter of the lyrics is really sad, but fits in well with Oh, Sleeper’s Christian metalcore sound and theme. It tells the story of a small 2-year-old Israeli girl named Yael passing away while she was hiding from a Palestinian raid on her apartment building. If anyone wants to look up the story, you can find it by searching for “April 22, 1979” which was the date this happened. I’ll issue a trigger warning just in case, because it’s a very violent story, for anyone who looks it up.

[@Marius_ae]

I wish you’d look into the lyrics for this one, it’s a really sad but true story. Great reaction as always man

[@BK-hp8cj]

Seconding this, tragic to listen to this without knowing the story behind it. It has sooo much meaning to it

[@Weatheredsteel]

Third this! The lyrics add to this song's brutality! One of my favorite bands.

[@rocioiribe5841]

the guy doing the clean intro singing is Shane, who for a short bit joined up with the As I Lay Dying guys (minus Tim of course) to form Wovenwar. and that was my introduction to Oh, Sleeper. Also for any metalcore fans, the first Wovenwar album is just a straight banger.

[@SandraNelson063]

I know most of y'all are all about The Scream, but I really like what the "clean" singer is doing. Listen, he is soaring over the screams.

[@thibaultstroobandt9606]

What an underappreciated band, always liked their sound

[@WitchxBrew]

Man I miss this band so much! I remember seeing them in my hometown and they took over headlining for Attack Attack since AA dropped. One of the greatest shows ever. I remember getting on stage and doing the ending vocals for them on this song!

[@ChristopherDolby]

Me too!! 👊💀

[@chewbunkie7031]

I've really appreciated the evolution of cleans within metalcore. I wasn't expecting this, today. This was a good find.

[@josiahw9915]

Check out Kingdom of Giants. They have great cleans 👍

[@ChristopherDolby]

Loving this - great reaction bro!

[@shamalamaaa]

Sooooo happy to see this on your channel. This is one of my all-time favorites, SO GOOD!

[@byron2652]

Super stoked to see you doing more metalcore! Oh, Sleeper's newest album is amazing as well. I think metalcore has some really inventive bands outside of the traditional metalcore sound. Here's some of my favorites from the last year that I think you'll appreciate: Thornhill -- I've seen you get some suggestions for these guys. Every song individually off The Dark Pool is incredible, but this album REALLY needs to be heard from front to back as a holistic experience. Maybe if you get into album reviews! Lots of people recommend Where We Go When We Die, Coven, or Nurture, but I'd like to throw in The Haze or Human as amazing tracks off this album that people don't mention as often. These guys are masters at complex atmosphere, layers, and groovy riffs. Invent Animate -- You listened to Erra recently which is my favorite band ever and falls into my favorite sub-genre of progressive metalcore. This band is a POPULAR staple among progressive metalcore fans. They are incredibly atmospheric and groovy and catchy and technical. A lot like Erra but way "darker" for lack of a more precise word. It's a really unique sound in the genre. A real musician's band with great production, song writing and technical riffs. I recommend Dark or Monarch off their latest album. I honestly could recommend every song off of the latest albums from both bands haha. If you like technicality and creative song writing and progressive, unique bands in the metalcore scene these are the two groups I bring up. Thanks for reading!

[@xBlade173]

You did Erra, now you've done Oh Sleeper?! Just keep doing my favorite bands lol

this, this is what's all about!

[@thomasmaes527]

So glad you did Oh Sleeper. Very underrated band in my opinion!

[@ChristopherDolby]

Too true!! 👊💀

[@joshhart8209]

So awesome seeing Oh Sleeper reactions on KZbin. Highly underrated band in my opinion. Definitely check out one of their newer tracks, Fissure. Sick video too.

[@midnighthymn]

Easily. Children of Fire is one the best albums I've ever heard.

[@Maglizard1993]

Awesome as always!

[@jefferjacobs]

Getting to see someone experience this for the first time brought a smile to my face. You should definitely get these guys on your playlist. Keep on visiting earlier stuff!

[@hupfi1835]

never really been into metalcore, so this was all new to me... I'm not sure if it's my thing, I'd probably need some more exploring in that direction. but anyways, thanks for once again exposing me to something that's new to me and for making me look beyond my usual comfort zone, I appreciate it a lot!

[@everett880]

@@rocioiribe5841 I get it when Chase cited HTD, Underoath and Blindside as his fav bands and even toured with them. One particular similarity, they're all Christian bands (or some were back in the day). Since he's into them, I'm sure he'd like August Burns Red or Fit For A King. I don't associate myself with religions but FFAK has some really good stuff in their catalogue.

[@kdm704]

I LOVE that you covered one of their older songs, but man this made me sad. I used to room with, and was in a band with, their bass player Lucas who passed away in 2018.

[@BK-hp8cj]

Dude, you did it. I love this song the real life story behind it is incredible

[@pin-upmariposa412]

I don't know this band but I like this sound. It's calm and brutal in that same moment. "Calm", clean guitar part has so much space sound. Fantastic. :)

Man, I am dying to hear more about your old band. Ever since you made the post about it a month or two ago I’ve been super curious! Would love to hear you talk more about that sometime!

[@thoughtvibetv]

Oh Sleeper needs to come back and I would film al their music videos for free.

[@backfaced]

6:40 - 7:30 This is why I love this genre of music! I totally agree with you and I respect it! Metalcore has changed my life and I have developed so many strong friendships through the shared love for the music

[@WibbleDibbles]

I'm glad you're listening to Oh Sleeper dude, the Oh Sleeper logo along with lyrics from their song The Finisher were my first tattoo 😅 I really dig em even now, 8 years later

[@jeremylandry858]

I’m not sure if you did since you didn’t mention it in the video but I highly recommend you go look up the story behind the song. Just type in April 22, 1979 and you’ll find it.

[@bosunbones.8815]

Oh wow! That's tragic. 😢

[@drewcdroppop8756]

INSTA click. One of my favorite bands

[@cowmark67]

Hey Chase. Love the reaction videos. I'm really enjoying learning the technical side of the music being played and hearing new music that I have never heard before. I've been watching for a while but only just subscribing now as I realized your content is too good to not be subscribed to even though I have a large sub box already. I have some suggestions for bands that I think you would enjoy reacting to. Slipknot - One of your earliest videos that I can tell was for Solway Firth. I don't know if by now you have listened to the entire We Are Not Your Kind album but if you haven't then Unsainted and Nero Forte are great tracks. EarlyRise - I have seen nobody react to this band. They are a rock band similar to Evanescence and Halestorm from Tel Aviv, Israel. Their entire What If album is amazing (For this debut album the band was a 2 piece. I believe they are a 4 piece now). Top songs to check out would be Become Mad, What If, Old Friend, Shell, and Face Me. Halestorm - You have already done one reaction to this band but more would be amazing. Songs to check out would be It's Not You, Miss the Misery, American Boys, Here's to Us, and Mz. Hyde. Paramore - You reacted to a Hayley Williams song and I think you should check out her band Paramore if you are not familiar. For their more pop rock/synth pop sound I would suggest Rose-Colored Boy, Caught in the Middle, Grudges, and Fake Happy. For their more pop-punk/emo/rock sound I would suggest Ignorance, All I Wanted, [One Of Those] Crazy Girls, and Looking Up. Rise Against - They are a melodic hardcore/punk rock band and my 2nd favorite band. Songs I would suggest would be Grammatizator, Voice of Dissent, Sight Unseen, To Them These Streets Belong, and Anywhere but Here. Deftones - Last suggestion. I'm not sure if you are familiar with Deftones but they have dropped two songs Ohms and Genesis in preparation for their new album coming out soon. If you are not familiar I would also suggest checking out Change (in the House of Flies), My Own Summer (Shove It), Digital Bath, Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away), and You've Seen the Butcher.

[@SubwaySweden]

Don't care that it does not have anything to do with this song...... best fooking song I have heard in years so I have to share it with everybody. INHUMAN ARCHITECTS - INTERPLANETARY SUFFERING

[@Moss513]

Great reaction. If you’re into the whole deathcore scene, Malediction by Shadow of Intent is a fantastic song that puts a great spin on the genre tropes.

[@triangleman1990]

Nice to see Oh, Sleeper on a reaction channel! I feel like you might be familiar with Silent Planet (same label), but if you haven't heard Trilogy by them it's well worth checking out. Cheers!

lots of reaction channels became symphonic/power metal channels. idk why guess it's just what's popular to react to. just an observation. but I'm with you on more metalcore. i know it's not everyone's style. but that's ok!

[@novaasher1185]

@@rocioiribe5841 Yeah I noticed the pattern in pretty much the reaction channels I flitted over. Guess it all boils down to the creators' audience demography. Being an Aussie, the metalcore scene is huge here with bands like Parkway Drive, Northlane, Thornhill, Polaris, Hellions, etc. And metalcore nowadays have evolved. They incorporated new sounds, not just good ol' fast blastbeats. The problem with metalcore community is that fans are divided, some like the evolution while others like to stick to the old sound. Guess same goes to other bands of different genre.

And yes, i appreciate when Chase reacts to something different.

[@novaasher1185]

@@rocioiribe5841 so proud of my boys getting recognitions from all over the world. Yeah, people need to understand the phrase 'Metalcore is not dead'. Metalcore is dead if its sound doesn't evolve. I saw so many trash talk on some bands' channels like when they dropped a new album and incorporates a different sound, people would comment like 'this is their downfall' or 'they turned to pop now'. Like, ok that's your opinion and it's fine, but wouldn't it be boring if the band sounds the same throughout their career? I think the US have some hidden gems. Have you listened to anything from Kingdom of Giants or Neon Graves? They have some of the most unique tones in metalcore.
