Lorna Shore “To The Hellfire” | Aussie Metal Heads Reaction

[@wesapril4591]

For me; when I can't understand the vocals I try to think of them as another instrument. They still add so much value

[@jck1794]

yeah with deathcore and sub-genres akin to it, you're not always meant to be able to pick out every lyric. The main point of it most of the time is the sound and texture of the screams, not the diction. So I 100% agree.

[@jeanpierre3061]

That is essentially it for me. I love SLAM, but I understand nothing

[@jaroslavsvaha6065]

It's also how you need to think of doom metal vocals

[@danielnelson4881]

100% vocals are another instrument, a sound. Obviously you can pick out what they are saying after listening to it a few times but that's beside the point. It's supposed to be human, and not just coming from a wooden instrument but it's, for me, more about the brutality.. The fierceness, that someone with a voice just like mine is emitting these heavy, gutteral or shrieking, intimidating, ANGRY fucking crazy noises.

[@jaystockman7087]

The voice is an instrument.

[@Badgerman494]

It's insane how Will Ramos can be so Gutteral, and yet his clarity is incredible.

[@ulver1187]

The change in clarity is what really put me on Lorna Shore, I didn't really like the previous vocalist (mixing) because of that. He's a legend!

[@brianzinszer9365]

He kicked it up a notch from a Wake in Providence. His voice is badass there, but sooooo much better here.

[@colinschindler7103]

Can say from experience how hard clarity in volume is. Mad respect.

[@xli-36912]

doesn’t need a lot of layering

[@lolarae7412]

This is Blackened Deathcore. It's good to see you guys reacting to this track and having your mind blown away even though you're not a fan of deathcore.

[@johnnyneedham9831]

You can’t deny the insane musical ability of the musicians and the dedication it must take the vocalist to have that strength and creat those sounds. Incredible. The more I hear this song, the more I love it. Also, nice to see that even though on an initial reaction we didn’t love it, metal heads don’t get their panties in a bunch like doja cat and bts fans haha

[@lolarae7412]

@@johnnyneedham9831 absolutely correct. To the Hellfire is a banger for sure and the drumming was so incredible. I've been listening to this track repeatedly ever since it's release. And yeah I agree that we metal heads are far better and open minded than the fans of those pop stars lol.

[@robdurfee6861]

I literally listen to this song 3 times a day at minimum. My song and breakdown of the year so far. I didn’t think they would top Immortal, whether you hate CJ or don’t, that album still kicks ass. I listened to Will Ramos in A Wake In Providence and have to say he’s a perfect fit for this band. I already pre-ordered the EP and can’t wait till they tour so I can see this insanity live

Austin is a monster on the drums, with his writing and technique to bring in another monster like Will is so fucking sick. If they keep doing this, they are going to dominate. So sick mate.

[@jasonharrison8965]

Fun fact: the final breakdown intro was improvised on the spot in studio. The band told Will "just do something sick here"... And THAT'S what he did. Band was shocked and loved it so they used it.

[@TriggerFingerRC]

I dont listen to this type of music usually. I listen to mostly metalcore. That being said, this song made my playlist. I love the theatrical side of this song. Bands like shadow of intent and assemble the chariots are heavier than what i usually listen to, but they do what they do sooo well. 🤘

[@johnnyneedham9831]

I’m in the same boat

[@lynnvb]

Same!

[@danielnelson4881]

I think I'm just a smidgen leaning more toward Deathcore than you are. I love Deathcore, probably more than any other genre of music... But I hate most deathcore I've heard at the same time. Does that make any sense? When you said you liked this song, and then go on to mention Shadow of Intent, I knew we were on the same page. I had the Reclaimer album by SOI on repeat, literally nonstop, for a ridiculous amount of time.. Like over a year, I listened to mainly that album, with other stuff sprinkled in hahah. It was stupid almost, I never got sick of it though. Bad Deathcore... The stuff that doesn't have anything interesting going on vocally, except some gutteral slams and maybe one high used here and there... And also musically, just some open chugs and some like, a perfect example.. Suicide Silence. I like some of their songs, but it's a mystery to me as to why. They suck honestly, only Mitch's vocals were OKish... The guitarists blow weiner, couldn't write something interesting if they copied off Jason Richardson's test. I just hate bad Deathcore, so I'd always gravitate toward Metalcore, especially when I was younger, like Parkway drive or Alive or Just Breathing by KsE to name some of my favorites. But at the same time my heart is with Deathcore, my top 5 favorite albums in no order has to be The Discovery - Born of Osiris, Exoplanet - The Contortionist, Reclaimer- Shadow of Intent, Awaken the Dreamers - All Shall Perish, and Courting Tragedy and Disaster - Himsa... Those are all pretty damn deathcore lol. Except Himsa, that's the wildcard. I feel bad not including Horizons by Parkway Drive though. Hmm.. Maybe I like Deathcore more than I thought. If you've got time and you feel like it, I'd love to hear your top 5 albums. Do your best of course, something as tough as a top 5 is ever changing, top five in recent history is OK. I just feel like we might have similar tastes, maybe you'll point me to something I just gotta listen to. Or maybe they'll all be some of my favorites too, always gotta love having stuff in common with someone. What are your thoughts on my top five? Sorry this is so long.. Your comment made me think it'd be fun to have a chat with you.

[@paintedlady_81]

And Will’s so damn wholesome and loveable… His personality has been what’s brought me to it.

[@DawnsHhcg]

This started out as something I didn't want to listen to every day. And now I listen to this band constantly.

[@joeraine482]

90% sure my face melted when watching/listening to this

[@thatstrictnick1850]

Will came outta nowhere and made an impact. One of the best vocalist I’ve heard and humans aren’t supposed to make the sounds he can make. His talent plus his personality makes him such a better artist as well. Sun//Eater is another one of my favorites

[@Bongdingalingus]

“Fun fact, that’s Satan” hahahaha

[@Commandercolt44]

Johnny is the first person I’ve heard say the chorus gives him Lamb of God vibes. I’ve been thinking that ever since it came out but haven’t seen anyone else say it

[@PamelaAndrea1989]

I have this song on repeat for the last month. When I drive to work, when I go for a run. The lyrics are amazing🤘 the older I get, the heavyer I go with my music preference. My kids and husband think I'm insane😆

[@JeremiahSlattery]

I'm coming back here to try and get you two to do Will's one take playthrough.

Lorna Shore - Immortal Its beautiful

[@StrangMuZ6]

I love the bands like this that go so hard but you hear the vocals really good. I remember when a docummentary came out for whitechapel and he even said he tries his hardest to deliver an amazing sound vocals and tries his best to make his vocals as clear amd clean as possible. This band does the same thing.

[@acem8042]

This is the first deathcore music I listened and I remember being so shocked and overwhelmed. The vocalist didnt just slay it. It was a MASSACRE!! 😂 And now I'm addicted to his voice 😁

[@deejay2606]

@Johnny_Sounds: Will Ramos (lead vocalist) has released a vocal one take on his channel if you're still interested in hearing it

[@REDphoenix374]

I listen to more punk/light screamo (lol) so this was the HEAVIEST artist I’ve ever listen to and…honestly I’m highly impressed with the musicality but I had to just sit in silence for 10 minutes trying to comprehend everything that happened cause…I don’t think I could regularly listen to this kind of music, but I respect the hell out of the band for how incredible they are.

[@StrangMuZ6]

Finaaaallllyyyyyy!!! Been waiting for you guys to react to this !

[@jen.g.]

There’s a one take vocal of this song now! 😊🤘🏻

[@beautyandthebeardedbeast]

The way I explain my view of these vocals is I see them as another instrument. The lyrics are just another level I can dig into later. Diction isn't all that important. I've noticed I do the same to other music as well. I may listen to the lyrics but they're typically not processing on first listen, outside of rap.

[@giure4447]

My capability to understand the lyrics is somehow worse than when I listen to the old ladies of the neighbourhood speak in dialect but I love this ones. I do agree with you guys, they remind Lamb of God but much more heavier; I guess I'm gonna call Lorna Shore the God of lamb from now on. I'm absolutely in love with the drummer; I'd listen to an album where there's just him drumming on whatever he wants. How many legs days he could have skip to train his arms? I think I won't be able to air play this song. Insane. Frick. Absurd. I never heard this band before as I am quite new to metal in general, and I'm not into death core, but I mast listen to other tracks by Lorna Shore - are they X-men and Jordie shore fans? Cause that would make them cooler. BTW each one of them is impressively talented. Holy crap. Thanks to everyone who requested those cool dudes to react to this song. p.s. The pig squeals at the end go too far for me; the vocalist technique is enough to me to save those lines/yells but as I said the growl isn't for me.

[@AmaraQuellcrist]

yup, his voice in that chorus is so similar to the one and only randy blythe. but i think blythe is one of the metal singer that can make you say "wow, i don't need lyrics everytime he singing with that deep scary voice". he's the only metal singer that can say the word "bones" perfectly lol

[@melsbookshelves]

It did take me a good few listens to understand the lyrics. "Azrael (the Angel of Death) Carry me beyond the veil. Obitual Take me from this mortal shell." Awesome lyric. Followed by "My final breath Swallowed by the womb of death". Not entirely sure I like that one. . Swear to god, that drummer has AT LEAST one extra set of arms and legs. . That's not a pig, that's f*cking Razorback. . So, apparently the three new Lorna Shore songs are all part of a single project, about life (To the Hellfire), death (Of the Abyss) and rebirth (And I Return to Nothingness). They also seem to like starting their song titles with connectives...
