👴 Old Composer Reactions 🤘

[@Oppetsismiimsitsitc]

I like Eluveitie. It's Melodeath, but with flutes.

[@rineran]

Thanks again Geebz for giving this a listen. Loved the input and insights

[@hugolourenco6981]

Amazing song. Its a masterpiece. Their last álbum is really great. I would love to see them live

[@joe94c]

This band is utterly incredible live. The engineers did a great job of being able to hear everything

[@SargonnasIncarnate]

Fabienne the Fabulous.

[@aenorist2431]

I like how you didn't say "incredibly good", and how you praise the engineers on this studio version. Because live, every time (seen them a dozen or so) the engineers absolutely shit up the mix and make it sound horrible. If they are on, particularly at a festival, do *not* go. You'll have a miserable time. Pretty much a studio-only band, until you are one to leer at Criegel-Creepels newest piece of eye candy.

[@joe94c]

@@aenorist2431 I was praising the live version I saw. I had a great time. I guess I got lucky because it was in a fairly small venue

[@joe94c]

@aenorist2431 I also haven't heard anything of him being a creep. What's with the negativity towards them?

[@chorsman]

DUDE SERIOUSLY. I heard them headline a show with the agonist before them, and the agonist had AWFUL eq. I thought it was the venue, but then Eluveitie played right after and they were incredibly well-balanced. You really could pick out everything separately at a small club venue.

[@GenieHolg3r]

Yes man! More Eluveitie, they`re from switzerland by the way ;)

[@aenorist2431]

Imagine a hurdy gurdy like a violin (at least for the rythm strings, it has inbuilt bass and such too), but the bow is circular. The rotation of the handle drives a wheel which contacts all the different strings, vibrating them. So the staccato she played was equivalent to a really fast back and forth "sawing" motion with a violin or fiddle ... except on an instrument built to have a steady pull in one direction, so even steadier normally than a slowly played violin. The keys shorten / dampen strings, a mix of the fingers on the fret of a guitar (modulating the note up or down via the string length) and a piano (dampening strings down where required).

[@LuckyDuke468]

OMG YES !!! :D So glad you did it, you did some tracks of this band back ago but not this one, i was hoping for it :D

[@DrSkeff]

Great reaction Geebz, not seen you on my feed for a while and the “awlright” did make me smile in a nostalgic way. Be well and spiral out man.

[@rhikkha]

Apropos Hurdy Gurdy.... when will you revisit Cellar Darling again?

[@kilteddwarf]

2:47 they are from switzerland (specifically the part of celtica which was inhabited by the helvetii, not the part that was gallia... -> border where the alps, back in 50 bc...)

[@yhamez37]

I dig this. Thanks for sharing!

[@candelloa]

I been waiting for this one.

[@PK--ITA]

Good choice, wery nice band!

[@reaperinsaltbrine5211]

The (quasi) unofficial name for the Federation of Swiss States is Helvetia. Thus Eluvietie (from the celtic people of the Helvetii) Thougn the name would be equally good as Luwetje (Cisalpine Gaul). If they can say Nydus for Nidus (Neith, Nessa, Goddess of Night) why not lol

[@Metalblowing]

Saw them live in Ukraine way back, something like 2012. AMAZING :D I don't know how they are live today, but I'd recommend to give them a try anyways. They are a unique musical experience.

[@norsegamingtv1686]

Welcome to Pagan/Folk death metal. These guys are absolutely amazing..they use a language that no one uses anymore Gaelic language.

[@thevilifyingforce]

Well, no one isn't quite correct. It certainly is a small number though.

[@funnybot1919]

There's Gaelic speaking schools all over Ireland. My niece and nephew are fluent. African descent kids speak it fluently. It's blown up in the last 20 years

[@norsegamingtv1686]

@@funnybot1919 That's great! However it's still endangered language.

[@funnybot1919]

@@norsegamingtv1686 It was. Definitely not anymore on the Emerald Isle.

[@rineran]

It’s actually not Gaelic it’s reconstructed ancient Gaulish. While yes that did evolve into Gaelic the dialect is still different.

[@morrigannibairseach1211]

It's a real shame everyone only seems to react to this song. They do songs in reconstructed Gaulish and sing about actually Celtic things. Ambiramus is a really fun song that has Gaulish and English lyrics. Epona is not only a wonderful song about a historically and archaeologically attested Gaulish goddess in reconstructed Gaulish but the battle scene also has completely accurate armor and weapons.

[@KeyOfGeebz]

I'll get on one those tracks for sure - thank you!

[@morrigannibairseach1211]

@@KeyOfGeebz Oh wow. No problem. Thanks for listening. The whole draw is how authentically Celtic this Swiss metal band is. The name means "We are Helvetian." The Helvetii being the Swiss tribe whose refugee migration was used as a pretext by Caesar for invasion and genocide. Ambiramus is from the same album, Ategnatos, as Rebirth so thematically it just fits. Ambiramus meaning a journey and being a story euphemism for death which relates to the Celtic belief in reincarnation or Gaulish Ategnatos. Epona is on Evocation II: Pantheon and basically a prayer but it's the song that won me over on Fabienne after the leaving of Anna Murphy. And there are translations available for understanding the Gaulish. I look forward to seeing you react to anymore Eluveitie.

[@ryantannar5301]

Celtic, but not how you may think. They're Swiss. The Celts at one point were the dominant people group west of the Rhine all the way through Iberia and up into Ireland and Great Britan. So baiscally pre Germanic Switzerland.

[@spriestplayer2329]

Indukti - Ninth Wave

[@ratmforthewin]

I really like the sound, but the mixing of this song really shafted the vocals. It's really difficult to hear the lyrics

[@alexandersalinas803]

Please listen to kendrick lamars album-damn! Have a great day thanks!

[@jalikquarterman4318]

Somethings wrong with the audio 😕

[@durrnip]

Really? I noticed his mic isn't perfect, but the music sounds fine

[@belladonna_scarlet]

I always learn something from your analysis. Thank you for sharing your insight and enthusiasm for this music, Geebz. What I appreciate about Eluveitie is I can understand the harsh vocals without looking up the lyrics. Chrigel Glanzmann's vocals are superior in that aspect. 🤘

[@aenorist2431]

"Scorching fisshhhh" Superior my ass :D
