[@metalcryptspt]

Thank you guys, means a lot to me. I'm really proud of them, for touring now all around the world, and seeing people appreciating their work. Cheers for Portugal 🇵🇹

[@HashimAlmadani84]

Seeing Gaerea live was a great and unique experience. The vocalist transmits pure, dark feelings to the fans. Their album Mirage is an impressive work leads to almost perfection

[@zetorres3700]

Cheers from Portugal! 🤘🏻🇵🇹

[@The_KlaVra]

DUDE, Gaerea is one of my top favorite artists in the last few years, their lyrics are just as amazing, they are great. Highly recommend their last two albums Limbo and Mirage, now we get a new one in October called COMA. Also one of their music videos is literally one of the members of the band getting waterboarded for 7 minutes, its so intense just like the music.

[@darthtater6543]

That opening was melodically beautiful

[@theshrike29]

Did not expect to see Gaerea on here! Rad! Saw them last year on tour open for Blackbraid and WITTR and they crushed!

[@burningbeard72]

Been a fan of this band for a few years now. Was lucky enough to see them live in June. Absolutely electrifying show.

[@DeadBeatSage]

One listen, I'm a Gaerea fan. Will be ingesting everything they've done now. Thank you!

[@misterscarisma]

New material sounds incredible.

[@Sir_Robocop_jr]

The world needs to hear this band. So much emotion and masterclass in song writing.

[@Naamturd101]

Great band, hadn't heard them before, so glad you picked this one. I don't know if I'm just old as shit or what, but I feel like a lot of metal lost something with how clean recording equipment is now.

[@leszekmiler7474]

Mgła - Exercises in Futility V (Pianist continues his exploration of heavy metal)

[@EarthlyEden1]

Yes this this one, quite like Exercises in Futility I as well but V is amazing.

[@marcotaf6744]

Maybe with Darkside angle, just to see him "playing" with cymbals

[@alecjasper]

So much this

[@joshuacanipe7688]

Agreed. And have him read the lyrics.

[@MatusDust]

Yeah, its time Mgla time! Either V (most awesome drumming, but perhaps not the most typical Mgla song) or VI which has it all. Thanks guys!

[@JTDenmark]

I love everything about this band and ever since they released the debut EP. How they evolved in time is just …perfection. The lady of the House has AMAZING taste in Music..

[@Straitjacket346]

Have never heard this band before, but really enjoyed this song and reaction.

[@tropiq]

I did check out Gaerea because i was supposed to see them live, due to some stuff they had to dip out of the tour but i did check out their stuff anyway, the single from the previous album Salve is a banger so i was kinda excited to hear the rest of the album and it just didn't stick but i still appreciate how consistent their output is and the whole aesthetic they've got going on

[@thetruth4654]

Salve is Gaerea best ever song so far, that song has everything

[@arrayofemotions]

I went to see these guys live on a whim a few months ago, even though I had never heard of them before. It ended up being a great show.

[@thetruth4654]

They are black metal, but also post-metal or post-black metal. thank you for finally doing this band react to Ulcerate they had have currently put out the best metal record of 2024 with the album Cutting the Throat of God I love Gaerea they are so melodic jet dissonant, and there is so much passion and emotion in the music of Gaerea it`s like you cannot possibly not get drawn into it.

[@juliopoveda]

Their vocals remind me of As I Lay Dying and I really like it, I have the chance to watch them in Colombia and it was amazing

[@skullium]

I thought the exact same thing...

[@ckokomo808]

Love Gaerea! At first they didn’t resonate but after listening for a while I really started to like them. They have a more “metalcore” approach to black metal in my opinion. I find their “post” side to really add a dynamic element to their passion and aggression. It’s been a life lesson I’ve been learning - the ugly and the beautiful are two sides of the same coin and learning how to exist with this tension is what it means to be human. Vocals are actually very dynamic to me. They drip with emotion. I find the overall sound to be consistent/similar but there are so many nuances that tell an emotive story. Thanks for the video and sharing y’alls thoughts!

[@PK--ITA]

Great Vocals similar in sound to Nergal from Behemoth. I like this atmosphere, modern but also mature.

[@keithdawe8521]

Great band. On their previous albums the vocalist was Ruben Freitas who has slightly different sound to his voice. Give White Ward or Uada a listen.

[@Joose]

Nothing, within metal, is debated more than "is this actually black metal?"... My thoughts: Be it Norwegian, Swedish, German, Danish, Finnish or anything else, each country seems to have its own distinguishable brand of black metal. So, is Gaerea black metal? Yep. Portuguese black metal. So stoked for the album.

[@daevyl]

Sure, that may be, but sometimes Swedish bands play Norwegian black metal, and so on.

[@internalfire11]

They are really beginning to sound like Harakiri for the sky

[@Roamnroll]

Great band, great song, great reaction.

[@drummykriss]

This band reminded me band "Neaera" even name is similar manner.

[@daevyl]

Pretty good.

[@ElvisBrown]

I love Gaerea. Pretty good band, although they call themselves black metal, the band has that "theme" at least from Black Metal, it's a quite different from what we usually expect. And his vocals it sounds A LOT from early metalcore from the early 2000's indeed.

[@vonclod123]

Never heard of them, not bad!

[@Pigdestroyer666]

Im new to these guys but they fucking rock. Lets go! You guys should check out some more Sleep Token, some of the new Nails and Nile - both records are fucking incredible - and maybe jump into some Fit For An Autopsy

[@DrewCJuice]

Solid tune! Gives me way more melodeath and metalcore vibes than BM but that's just me. Can I throw out a request for a classic "blackened metalcore" tune from Abigail Williams' original EP Legend? That EP has such a good blend of melody, driving intensity, and some really cool rythmic sections. Like Carrion Birds would be really cool or maybe From a Buried Heart.

[@HashimAlmadani84]

Richard, please give Ulcerate a listen, you won't regret it I promise, Especially the last two records, that took the title of " the record of the year" from many online reviewers

[@burningbeard72]

Richard - on the subject of labels, check out Transcending Obscurity. An excellent underground (mainly but not exclusively) death metal label. Gaerea's Unsettling Whispers album actually came out on that label and they signed to SoM later.

[@michaelgerstner9272]

Schammasch "They Have Found Their Master" Avantgarde Black Metal from Switzerland. And thx for hooking me on Humanity's Last Breath ❤

[@07liberty58]

It would be great for you guys to check out "Harbinger" by Fires In The Distance. Melodeath/doom. Quite a bit of piano to check out in the recent video clip for it too

[@leszekmiler7474]

Obscure Sphinx - Nothing Left (Pianist continues his exploration of heavy metal)

[@kitdesignprofissional2629]

pARABÉNS PELO VIDEO, SEU CANL É TOP DEMAIS!

[@christopherknepper3201]

Would love to see something from Brothers of Metal. 'Hel' would be a great place to start, but you can't really go wrong with any of their songs.

[@npiagneri1]

Deafheaven - Dream House (Pianist continues his exploration of heavy metal)

[@bumblefluff79]

Another interesting band I've never heard of. Love me a bit of black metal but not too much and love a bit of NWOAHM but not too much, so this fills a niche perfectly.

[@DallasGunther]

If you want some cool black metal lyrics check out Altar of plagues, as mentioned Mgla has some cool lyrics, and the grandaddy of them all; Deathspell Omega. Their lyrics are deeply profound

[@MikeMetaler]

A portuguese band, nice! You should check out Sirius. Unfortunately, they've split up. I think it's right up Richard's alley and it would be nice to see Judson's reaction. Cheers from Portugal! The song: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g3KUaJ2Lgp2naLM

[@FernandaPereira-ow3jo]

🇵🇹🤘🏻

[@bradr9903]

Cool tune.....Def a different structure.....and Richard.........were ya not hearing Howard from Killswitch.....? haha......Labatt I drink...... Rock on gentlemen! \m/

[@dan.j.boydzkreationz]

More meshuggah please

[@isakjonasson3907]

You should check out Mora Prokaza Blacker than black, it's a weird one, but I think you would like it, and be sure to the version with subtitles...

[@σερμπαντινας]

Obsequiae

[@riezmanhakim8377]

You guys should try react to Swan Song with chopin intro by lovebites live 2020, it is a combination of classic piano with metal. Would love to see reaction for them

[@AnaerobicFermentation]

You need to play him Arson. I think he might appreciate it more. Maybe not!

[@arrayofemotions]

The vocals actually remind me of Fernando Ribeiro from Moonspell, which is another great Portuguese band. Edit: if you listen to some Moonspell, I think it's clear they were an influence on Gaerea.

[@harleycunha5046]

Yes, I was going to say ot, please listen to Moonspell!

[@Olivia_Neumann]

Let me float an idea you totally can just ignore. I’m thinking it’d be fun if you had your lady come on to play your part some time, Richard, and introduce the two of you to a song/band neither of you know. Just to really mix things up.

[@Schumacher190]

I'm only commenting this to potentially help Richard - The vocals reminded me of the harsh vocalist from Bullet for my Valentine. I kept sort of waiting for the clean, almost whining clean vocalist from Bullet for my Valentine to come in during this song...

[@tiffy3260]

How do yous have so many filming locations? Lol, with a piano in all of them too

[@mythscion]

Good review, I normally don’t get into this genre much, but it’s definitely worth a second listen. In the meantime, Reflections | Scapegoat: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJDNd2x4qbxggK8si=y9C_JSEspc9SmqkY

[@jakub_hricov]

I think its time for some Mgła next time.

[@dan.j.boydzkreationz]

I do wonder if there even is a higher power

[@jasonadams2]

Vocals remind you of the Haunted... can't remember whoch vocalist

[@pnac3d]

Please, let Judson try a bit of Igorr. =/

[@NutOnYoutube]

Wouldnt this just be a metalcore/black metal mix? I dont really get any hardcore from this. The first half gives mid-2000's metalcore vibes and the second half more of those black metal rifs

[@NutOnYoutube]

could be wrong, definitely an interesting mix

[@Defaultis_hit]

One of the best hc/black metal for ma has always been the first 2 Oathbreaker ablums, especially ErosAnteros, compared to this Gaerea album are way less polished

[@twelvelookslike]

Why they got to rip off Sleep tokens look though. Lame

[@jonaskazlauskas9084]

Gaerea is just bad take on MGLA.

[@puppetmaster8551]

Yo what the hell I never expected to see gaerea on this channel. If you’re looking for another really cool and unique band I highly highly recommend checking the band CLOAK, really cool blend of genres and they have 0 weak songs across their 3 albums “invictus” is a dope song of theirs, my personal favorite is “in the darkness, the path” but that’s a more obscure song but it rules. Anyway good stuff as always fellas. They’re also a season of most band like gaerea
