Historian Reacts - AD INFINITUM - Marching on Versailles (Official Video) - First Time Band Reaction

[@TonyHookedonVanlife]

Holy smokes! Okay, second video I have seen on your channel & I am subbing NOW! Also, while I had seen the band name mentioned here & there, I had not checked em out... Wow!! Hello Ad Infinitum 'rabbit hole', I am stoked!

[@HistoryBuff]

Nice!! Thanks for the sub! Haven't made a video in a while but I'll get back to it soon

[@aaronbarlow4376]

Meliisa sure is beautiful both in looks and voice.

[@HistoryBuff]

Yes she is! Did you happen to see my interview with her?

[@sarahnadeofpoetry]

Such an awesome reaction! You deserve way more views. Love your chill vibe and wholesome, sometimes funny attitude.

[@HistoryBuff]

Thanks a ton for that great compliment! It's really hit or miss. I feel more like its the artists who deserve more views because some of my videos get a hundred thousand views (rammstein, Soobin X) while others get only a few hundred. I think I've done a lot to ruin my algorithm too like streaming and waiting too long between videos. No biggie though since it's just a hobby for me. Thanks again!

[@sarahnadeofpoetry]

@@HistoryBuff Ah, that definitely makes sense! But I'm glad things still work out for you and that you enjoy it. Best wishes ^^

[@HistoryBuff]

@@sarahnadeofpoetry if you like Melissa Bonny, make sure you check out the interview i did with her.

[@sarahnadeofpoetry]

@@HistoryBuff I will! Good shout.

[@RosieCheeks78]

This is such a joy to watch! :3

[@HistoryBuff]

Thanks a ton! Very talented band!

[@johndreessen7335]

Great song. Just heard of them a few weeks ago. Love the layering of the clean and growling vocals. Did see a few songs. Have to hear more. Thank you for this reaction.

[@Rivkah.Gamble]

Buff: I'm gonna guess the growls are one of the other artists... Melissa: hold my wine. 🤣 Oh, man. I'm so glad you've made it to Ad Infinitum. The whole band is just phenomenal, but Melissa Bonny is just a vocal beast. It's insane how talented she is! A couple other people recommended Ding so I'm just going to say you won't be disappointed when you check that one out. Also, I would look at See You In Hell kzbin.info/www/bejne/g32ycpqQeL-DnNE and I Am The Storm kzbin.info/www/bejne/iZq3anWqqb-sZ68 for some of Ad Infinitum's slightly older stuff. Also also (lol) UTA just wrapped up their tour in the US and they're home until mid November 🤷🏾‍♂️, ijs. 😂

[@HistoryBuff]

Rivkah! Great to see you! I forget, did you check out my interview with Melissa!?

[@Rivkah.Gamble]

@@HistoryBuff Lol. Yeah, finally. SMH at me.

[@HistoryBuff]

The algorithm was not kind to this one for some reason. I seriously think I screwed something up when I released it. I set it for a premier, then moved it to unlisted really quick to change something. It kinda premiered but didn't and its really hard to find.

[@greaper1976]

and Chapter II Legacy is coming out at the end of October. I love Melissa Bonny's voice so much!!! (She also has a new project called The Dark Side Of The Moon with Hanz and Jenny from Feuerschwanz and Morten from Amaranthe, and she also used to do vocals for Rage of Light) They also released an acoustic version of their first album. Yes, the Growls would be Melissa. She's a beast with a massive range. BTW The first single "Unstoppable" from the new album came out 2 or 3 weeks ago and is a facemelter! Thanx as always. A great reaction!

[@HistoryBuff]

Awesome! I saw Feuerschwanz had a song featuring her too! If you're a big fan of Melissa's I may have a pretty cool surprise for you by this weekend 😉

[@greaper1976]

@@HistoryBuff yup I know Ding very well. Please tell me you you are having an interview with Melissa...

[@HistoryBuff]

🧐 perhaps

[@lassehoffmann625]

she also has 2 songs with warkings, where she goes under the name queen of the damned: odins sons and sparta, 1 song with beneath my sins: try, a few songs with MelefistuM, a cover of nothing else matters with the band trias and a lot of good covers on her own youtube channel and also was part of the folk rock band evenmore

[@stephanschoneberg3453]

Have to add: The whole first album is simply great. It's one of the rare disks where none of the tracks is a "gap filler". Sometimes she uses her growls, sometimes not - but it sounds great. I'm not the biggest fan of growling bands (Maybe with the exception of "Beyond The Horizon" and "Dark Tranquility", yes sometimes even "In Flames" ... but well, "In Flames" is a long time ago ... gone (I think)), but Ad Infinitum found a way to mix it up nicely. It "goes" even better in their newest track "Unstoppable". Her (maybe first) band "Rage Of Light" was (and maybe still is, they have found a new singer) also somehow fun for the pure mix up of so many differend styles (Techno, Classic, Growls (sometimes double) , Speed Guitars ...). So ... right I'm curious what they come up with at the end of October. Only ONE Year after the first album. In the meantime they pull out a whole accoustic album (well, sounds great too, but it's different) changed the bass-player (due to medical issues I think). It's one of the discs I love to buy without even dropping a small thought, that it would not be great.

[@milanvujadinovic4123]

Yes, she growls like a champ when she needed! You could check some older songs, when she sings (like Queen of the Damned, like a guest) with band "Warkings" - songs "Sparta" and "Odin's Sons". Also, her newest project with her boyfriend (drummer of Amarathe) and two people from German band "Feuerschwanz" under the name "Dark Side of the Moon"...Beautiful.

[@HistoryBuff]

Dude, wtf is it with the drummers!? Floor Jansen, brittney slayes...

[@HistoryBuff]

Make sure you check out the interview! We talk about the growls

[@milanvujadinovic4123]

@@HistoryBuff Yeah, drummers...lucky bastards! :-) I was just bellow average bassist! Eh...

[@HistoryBuff]

@@milanvujadinovic4123 yea, poor bass players... I was a drummer though. I must've been doing something wrong 🙃

[@N7Steph]

I totally respect if you don't cuz I know it's alot to keep up with, but...just fyi Ad Infinitum had dropped their new album and 2 vids from it in The past 2 weeks...would love to see your reaction to Unstoppable 🤘🎸🥁 this is by far one of my fav new bands...you should also check out Dear Mother ... Another AMAZING new band

[@HistoryBuff]

Thanks for stopping by! I do see everything that pops up whether its a new video or an older one. Did you happen to see my interview with Melissa Bonny? Great time! Also, I hung out with Mats from brother of metal for a few hours the other day. Ylva and Joakim were supposed to also join but something came up. We're going to try and regroup in the next week or 2.

[@yagamireichi1950]

Hi... Plz reaction to Japanese band VERSAILLES "MASQUERADE"

[@lassehoffmann625]

as somebody who is bad at singing and screaming i can tell you the switching isnt the hard part, its actually the easiest part, the hard part is being good at either
