Melody Cristea & Sabbath Knights - Country Girl Reaction

[@bigham1jb]

I have been a Liliac/ Melody fan for several years. I still get chills at times listening to her.

[@russpendergraft5057]

You and me both!!! Alot of her vocals just make my knees weak!!! So much vocal talent in this young lady!!! BIGFANG4LIFE ✌️😎✌️

[@garyarnett1220]

Me too..

[@mikecullers]

Vinny actually gave her the nick name MeloDio. She has since adapted it to Melodia as her stage name. Dio is her inspiration.

[@louiscarpenter1934]

Never mind their covers Try not afraid 🤯

[@cyberrich]

Great reaction Melodys voice is insane to the point that Wendy Dio asked Liliac to do The Last in Line for Cancer fundraiser which Vinny appice gave them an unreleased version. for fundraiser. Everything they do originals and tributes are phenomenal.

[@jonathanwatson5818]

Check out some Liliac originals. Liliac- Mars (Live in Cumming GA) Liliac- Not Afraid (Extended Version. Liliac- We Are The Children.

[@taddavis7182]

You are right on target. Dio is her inspiration. LILIAC is an all family band. They have covers of Dio songs, and many famous metal/rock songs, including Janis Joplin. They also 2 albums of their own. All there music is incredible. Melody has one of the best rock voices today! Enjoy!

[@CaptainFaceBeard]

We will be going on a journey of checking out a bunch of there covers then into there original music. She really does have an incredible voice. I would love to hear her do "Close My Eyes Forever" by Ozzy and Lita Ford with Dino Jelusick. He has the same quality to his voice.

[@scrogg13]

@@CaptainFaceBeard Imagine that, Liliac has done a cover "Close My Eyes Forever". Featuring Mercury Cross to do the Ozzy parts. Enjoy! Fang4Life! RO&RH! 🤘😎🤘

[@CaptainFaceBeard]

@@scrogg13 I made a high pitched squeak noise when your comment popped up in the corner of my monitor, hahaha. I will be on the lookout for that one, thanks :)

[@russpendergraft5057]

I've watched this countless times and i still get spine tingling chills! Melody's absolutely stunning with vocals that just don't stop!!!!! You've got to check out the Cincinnati vampires featuring Melody singing STARGAZER by RAINBOW!!! OMG!!! TALK ABOUT A JAW DROPING PERFORMANCE BY EVERYONE IN THIS COLLABORATION! WELL WORTH CHECKING OUT! AND ITS PRODUCED WITH STUDIO QUALITY!! 👍

[@jonathanwatson5818]

Liliac has some covers too...Dio- Holy Diver, Rainbow in the Dark, The Last in Line. Metallica- Enter Sandman, Master of Puppets. Megadeth- Symphony of Destruction. Iron Maiden- The Trooper.

[@EarlTowles]

Melody cristea sings another Dio song, Stargazer with cincinati vampires. She turned another Dio song into an epic song

[@russpendergraft5057]

She most certainly did! Just outstanding!!! 👍

[@MarkTaylor-v1d]

I heard the mention of Janis Joplin. Watch their video of Piece of My Heart, live in Cumming, Ga.

[@CaptainFaceBeard]

They would SLAY that song. Thanks for the suggestion Mark!!

[@buckfrnka2774]

The best vocals I have heard lately is Melody Cristea singing Dio's "Rainbow in the Dark"! LILIAC ROCKS! Official cover version is best.

[@mickeymayfield4192]

Now that you've heard melodia do dio, check out her style. Liliacs not afraid extended version she will melt your eardrums

[@CaptainFaceBeard]

What is going to be really interesting for me is the songs that I would never expect they would do. That's what Nurses should do to save time, if someone comes in to have their ears flushed, they just prescribe the patient to listen to 5 Liliac songs. EDIT: First 2 lines of a verse will probably do the trick, but you CAN'T stop there.

[@mickeymayfield4192]

@@CaptainFaceBeard besides the song above, to show her range, master of puppets, 7 nations armies, smells like teen spirit, enter sandman, crazy train, and mystery to build you up to sailaway their masterpiece

@@mickeymayfield4192 On our Twitch stream this Friday we are going to be checking out Master Of Puppets, Enter Sandman, and one other, not sure which one yet. I am going to take a look through their list of covers and find one that makes me go "OH REALLY? They do that one?".

Hehe, already on it!! We checked out Enter Sandman and Symphony Of Destruction on our stream last night :)

[@russpendergraft5057]

So, was this your guys first time hearing Melody? Wow! Glad I got to see your reaction to this! I've seen your other reactions to LILIAC, love them!!! And im in awe of Melodys capabilities! I just wish she would write and perform some good dark rock metal! And Sam play something equal to Toni Iommi sennt of dark style guitar! They could be the next DIO/SABBATH style band! But then again, its their life and i still admire their independence to do what makes them happy! EITHER way, im still a BIG LILIAC/ MELODY FAN!!!

[@tonyjarrell5237]

There is no stage too big for melodi. 🔥🤘

[@jonathanwatson5818]

Liliac is... Samuel Cristea (23)- Lead guitar. Abigail Cristea (23)- Drums. Melody Cristea (20)- Vocals. Ethan Cristea (16)- Bass guitar. Justin Cristea (15)- Keyboard.

[@robear5440]

Definitely need to react to the Last in Line from Liliac. Great tribute video

[@tonyjarrell5237]

Definitely 🔥🔥🤘🤘

[@tomwareham7944]

Check out some Liliac pronounced lil ee ack, if your goto singer was DIO then your in luck he's also Melody's inspiration ,Liliac have tribute covers of DIO'S HOLY DIVER ,RAINBOW IN THE DARK ,and an extended version of LAST IN LINE which was supplied by Vinnie Appice for Liliac to perform for the Wendy Dio cancer benefit .apart from their brilliant tribute covers of songs from Mettalica ,Iron Maiden ,Megadeath! Black Sabbath ,KISS, Whitestripes ,Jefferson Airplane! Queen and a host of other bands and artists they also have written scored,and produced around 2 dozen original songs which are simply amazing . FANG4LIFE RORH

[@CaptainFaceBeard]

It was later on that I had gotten into Dio, I think in my mid 20's. I was a bit young in the Sabbath and Holy Diver era. I have tried to not look through the video list on their KZbin too much, cuz I want that "OH!! They do THIS song!" moment. Though from what I have heard so far I get an idea of what artists they might cover, but it's the ones I would never guess that are going to be amazing.

[@clintonshepard6107]

You definitely need to check out Lilly-ac is Romanian for Bat and us fans are Fangs. Melody's voice has gotten even better, they have done a lot of big metal and rock covers and all of their originals are fire! The first song I heard was Enter Sandman and I was hooked as soon as she started singing and I have been supporting them ever since. New sub. Thanks and stay safe and well. Fang4Life!!

[@CaptainFaceBeard]

We have heard Liliac's cover of Holy Diver as well kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKuzaWihjb-Vfbc This band is incredible, we are 100% behind this. After hearing the Holy Diver cover I was doing a stream here on KZbin where I read song lyrics in the Pirate costume like they are poems, so I ended up trying to decipher the meaning of Holy Diver. Haha.

"Neon Knights" LIVE at GoDps Studios...Batio-Appice-Sarzo-Cristea......try that one out...

[@CaptainFaceBeard]

Schweet, I am gonna go look for that. All of that sounds amazing, but BATIO forced my hand. I have watched some of his Guitar instruction videos, I love how he just stares straight at the camera stone faced and directly into your soul. It's a shame he is more known by Guitarists because he is one of the most skilled musicians to ever live.

[@hunterace101st]

I can't wait to watch you react to Dio's Last in Line.

[@CaptainFaceBeard]

On our stream last night we checked out their covers of Enter Sandman and Symphony Of Destruction. SO GOOD!!

[@kennethdixson9561]

Hello my friends. I loved the day you did this on your live, I was fueling in Twin Falls, when you noticed the start of Harsh in that phrasing. A lot of techniques for a young woman. Don't know if I've given you this link before. Since this reaction I noticed more areas of Harsh. This live version of MOP with Aiden Fischer MeloDia changes her vocals a little and I hear more of the harsh. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5jWmJ2peNBkbNk Love your reaction then and now. Both you and Heather are great people. Love and Respect always. Peace. Stay safe. God Speed. FANG 4 LIFE! RORH ❤️🌹🤘🦇

[@CaptainFaceBeard]

Hey Kenneth!! I had actually found the link with Aiden Fischer because I know him from Umbrella Chronicles, and I have heard his music before, he is a fantastic songwriter. Really impressive stuff. We are going to check a few out this week.

[@shellycochran6837]

You know you already did Liliac. You did their cover of Holy Diver by Dio.

[@CaptainFaceBeard]

I edited them in a different order than they were recorded. In the playlist I will switch the order of those 2 reactions, hahaha. Went with Holy Diver first cuz it showcased the whole band.

[@joewilson820]

I like all your reactions to Liliac but this one is my favorite . I've watched it several times . It's like she channeled Dio .

[@neilsoutar3366]

You reacted to Liliac’s cover of Holy Diver about a month ago,keep up the Liliac!!!!

[@CaptainFaceBeard]

Haha, yeah, I just realized checking the comments this morning that I edited and released the songs in a different order than we listened. At first I was all matter of fact "Yeah, we did a reaction already" then after a couple of minutes I clued in, hahaha. Not to worry we are going all in on Liliac. Our Twitch stream this week on Friday we are going to listen to at least 3 covers, I am super excited to hear more.

[@cristyrawks6325]

FYI: Vinny's last name is pronounced App-i-see. For a heavy Metallica cover with Strange Things Aidan Fisher sitting in; Master Of Puppets LIVE. Then the 12th, they are dropping an original MV "Carousel". Rawk On and Rawk Hard!

Yeah, if you haven't delved into Liliac yet, they're absolutely worth it.

We also have a video for their Holy Diver cover, though I think you commented on that one. On our stream on Friday we checked out 2 perfectly paired covers, Enter Sandman, and Symphony Of Destruction. We have had some people donate through Buy Me A Coffee, and we also just want to tell the world about Liliac, so we are all in!! My plan is checking out a bunch of covers getting a really good idea of how they put their spin on other peoples music, then getting into their original music to see what they do now that there are 0 constraints.

We are Canadian, over in New Brunswick. We listen to a lot of Indie Canadian Metal. We are on the New Wave Of Nice Metal Buds Twitch Team that was founded by Grant from Unleash The Archers. We have done reactions a bunch of Canadian Metal Bands like UTA, Ravenous E.H, Striker, Idols & Illusions, and some others I am not thinking of right now, hahaha.

Oh I do loved your reaction to her video with Vinny an his crew an awesome reaction.

Melodia is inspired by Ronnie James Dio, and Liliac has done several of Dio's songs. There is a vid of her singing at Dio's grave for him. Wendy ask Liliac to do a song for Dio's Cancer Benefit so they did the Last in Line for it, they rehearsed and shot the video in 6 days. All their videos are a must see

Vinny Appice gave her the Name Melodio.

And then she changed it to Melodia, the feminine ending.
