Musicians react to hearing ATEEZ(에이티즈) for very first time!

[@purplepirate78]

Thank you for the reaction! ATEEZ have their own storyline and lore in their music videos and live performances. This song is the start of their albums set in an alternate dystopian world where no music or emotion is allowed and they are guerilla fighters using their music to free people from being controlled. When they perform this song live the whole stadium chanting "BREAK THE WALL" is such an amazing experience. Other songs I would recommend from them are Wake Up, Dune, New World, and Halazia (only Halazia has a music video). ATEEZ definitely aren't afraid to experiment with their music and in my opinion they have some of the most unique production in kpop.

[@LoReacts_]

Fun fact: Some of Ateez producers are also producing for Dreamcatcher, and wise versa!

[@lunerlilly]

I didn't know that! Very cool information, thanks for sharing! 😊

[@katemccrea6963]

That makes so much sense artistically

[@tatushhimekuro]

For fun, check Ateez out at Coachella this year. The "break the wall" chant was heard all across the place. Thank you for noticing all the groups are unique. Watch the dance practice. Watch more!!!!!

[@Yasmine11011]

Finally ATEEZ You need to hear Black Cat Nero or Wonderland next.

[@kattydee4693]

I definitely agree💁🏻‍♀️

[@YessAty.-]

Black cat Nero yes yes !!

[@ola1575]

YESSSS

[@derasoit3951]

[@fanfaire3x3]

ATEEZ also released another version of this song that features more guitar and rock elements. It's Guerilla-Flag Version and I highly recommend it. And at Coachella they added a rock aspect to their whole setlist and brought their studio band with them. All of their music I highly recommend they never miss, some B-sides that are amazing are The Leaders, Django, The Ring, or Sector 1. Others main titles Hala Hala, and Halazia, Bouncy, and there newest Crazy Form.

[@alexxpanda6412]

Where can I listen to the guerilla flag version?! I need that in my life

​@@alexxpanda6412 it should be out on all music platforms (you can listen on youtube and spotify). It was released in their japanese album that featured "Paradigm" as its title track. Imo i prefer it to the original version, the last chorus hits a lot more lol

[@rocinante6530]

Their storyline is bananas. To cut to the chase, they are time travelling interdimensional pirates. Oh, and they have doppelgangers: There is regular ATEEZ and the Suicide Squad. The setting for this MV is an alternate dimension dystopia called Strictland, which they are trying to undermine.

[@Bludreamgirl]

HAHAHA!! This is the best condensed version i've ever seen

[@tsiyaama4244]

Honestly kpop isn't a genre, it's like saying "english" or "american" bands. Everyone can find something they like in that boundary.

[@bekahnavarro]

Definitely check out their Coachella performance. They had a live band and it was incredible. One of my favorite aspects of Ateez is all the vocal layering and harmony.

[@gaiapiazza5329]

Perfect group pronunciation, it is like 'From A to Z'. I knew you'd like them, they have different songs with strong vibes, but the storyline is very complicated, it's difficult to understand the story behind MVs, they are all linked. Next song by them could be Bouncy or Crazy Form. Thank you for the reaction!

[@jenunmasked]

Thank you for reacting! This is my favorite ATEEZ song. I think it is super powerful especially for the times we are currently experiencing. A little help on pronunciation. I’ll spell it out more phonetically for English which may help. The “g”’s are all very soft. ATEEZ (a-tease) Hong Joong (hong-june-g) aka Captain Seonghwa (Sung-h-wha) Yunho (yune-ho) Yeosang (yo-song) San (sahn) Mingi (Min-gee) Wooyoung (ooh-yung) Jongho (Johng-ho) The giggle is the trademark intro to Captain's raps. You know it is going to be good if you hear the giggle. Mingi's intro is "fix on".

[@flaggov6949]

[@nancprovon4240]

Jump on in and welcome to ATEEZ! Guerrilla is epic!

[@jakevazovski]

really love Ateez Halazia

[@nneichan9353]

Ateez often puts out very polished musical theatre MVs. Incredible listening, many are anthemic. One of my favorite groups. Ateez, BTS, SKZ, TXT, TheRose, OOO, and a few select others here and there. Each group has a very unique sound.

[@Julieeliz]

I’m on the older side of the fan base and I remember when I was in high school New Kids on the Block was “The IT” boy band of the time. Can’t say I was ever particularly fond of them and now having discovered Ateez I’m convinced I was born too early 😂. As a whole I’m not a huge fan of K-pop , I like a few songs here or there of other groups and only discovered Ateez when I was hunting down either permission to dance or Dynamite by BTS ( two of the only songs of theirs I really like) and I happened upon “Wonderland” by Ateez. It was nothing like the K-pop I expected and I started looking into their other songs. I’ve been hooked ever since. And I can honestly say Ateez is the only group I actively listen to. I consider them their own genre because they mix up so many styles I never get bored, and never quite know what to expect. They also have my favorite ballad of all time and I’m a sucker for ballads. Their ballad “Be With You” is amazing , and if you want to hear their pure vocals that’s a good way to go. Especially their live performances. I could go on and on but hopefully you enjoy more of their songs as well. In my opinion they have a no skip discography which for me is rare as a I remember the days of buying “cassingles” and “45’s” because you were lucky if you liked more than one or two songs off of an album 😂

[@margaritaalvarez7891]

I’m an older Atiny and found myself going down the rabbit hole with Ateez discography as well. They are my ultimate favorite KPop boy group. I’ve gone to 2 of their concerts and it’s worth the experience ❤❤❤ Fellini love with most of the lyrics ❤❤❤

[@wolfnoire]

Same here, I’ve always been a metalhead goth industrial type of teen, so kpop nor pop in general has never interest me, but I saw Wonderland in Kingdom with my friend once and I got so hooked into Ateez!

[@stanbts7365]

I'm older Atiny and ARMY and it cracks me up that the two songs you like are.ones we're not particularly.fond of as a whole 🤣🤣. I'm going to Rosemont in August and I'm 🤗😁🥰 so hype for it!

[@Julieeliz]

@@stanbts7365 my daughter and I are going to D.C. and I’m soooo excited for it. (I introduced her to Ateez when I went to visit her while she lived in Florida. And Wooyoung’s Studio Choom really got her. It was the first time I’ve ever heard her actually squeal over something lol. And I’m sure you know the moment I mean lol) It’s funny about the BTS songs, because I think the reason I liked them was they had an older sort of vibe of some of the songs I listened to back in the 80’s. It gave me that nostalgic feeling 🤗

[@careyv]

Pronunciation- like the name of the letter A + tease I think you’ll really like Rocky (Boxer version) and Black Cat Nero. Their Coachella stage included live band for their whole set and was outstanding. I hope you could find some uploads to react to.

[@AENogie]

Thank you for Ateez reaction!! pronounced (A-tease) and they are same generation k-pop as stray kids are. The two Stray Kids and Ateez are my top two groups for their music!

[@nyxxdelights]

ATEEZ is one of my favorites. Mingi and Hongjoog (Captian) have a signature before they rap. Mingi says Fix On. Hongjoog giggles and it is awesome. Songs you should check out next: Bouncy, Crazy Form, Wonderland, HALAZIA.

[@inescosta8083]

they are amazing!! you should check out the titles Wonderland, Hala Hala, Halazia and for b-sides Cyberpunk, Dune, Silver Light

[@seonju7294]

ATEEZ!! They are incredible when it comes to live vocals and performances. Definitely, we can't leave their outstanding Coachella performance out of this 🔥🔥

[@Elle._.3]

A little bit on ATEEZ lore to help you out. They are basically rebellious pirates who are trying to over throw the government because the government is try to take away human emotion. But there is also stuff like different universes and time travel. Thank you for noticing ATEEZ and I hope you can continue listening to them!

[@halzie]

MORE ATEEZ PLEASE THEY ACTUALLY ARE SICK MY BOYS ARE LEGENDS sorry for screaming but i really cant with them omg

[@brionyfakatou1620]

They have another song with a lot of rock elements called Black Cat Nero. It’s a remake of an older song, and kind of Halloween themed, but they definitely put their own spin on it. There is a music video that features the original artist at the end, but I personally feel that watching a live performance of Black Cat Nero is a whole different (and better) experience than the music video. But the MV is still better than nothing.

[@LeebitsEars00]

Thank you for watching ATEEZ!!!!! They have a song for everyone! Also, watch Halazia, Bouncy, and Hala Hala!!!!

[@niquipeirex_03]

Fun fact(because I know you also heard a bit of stray kids): Ateez and stray kids are actually quite good friends, that's why there are many who are both a STAY(stray kids fan) and an ATINY(fan of ateez)

You cut the video to early, ATEEZ always has spoilers of their next tracks at the end of every video, definitely helps piece together the giant puzzle that is their lore! There’s WAAY too many good things to say about them so I’ll just say this, they are like NO OTHER kpop group in a league of their own. You will not be disappointed!🎉

[@Melissa-ti6yf]

Finally early to one of these videos!

[@mirotiny]

thank you for reacting to ateez, their new album/song will drop may 31st! and it's called work!

[@marikaipark]

That bridge sweitching into an almost garage band grove is insane. Ateez is one of the only groups that does intense lurching genre and beat changes in their songs and it's successful most of the time. Their transitions are ear candy. So much fun.

[@Hongjoongs_teeth]

Thank you for being so respectful 🫶🏼

[@butterflymuse2707]

My ult boy group, they're amazing and have immaculate discography!

[@katiedallessandro997]

For sure watch the performance of Guerrilla from Coachella it’s sick and they did it with a live band

[@flaggov6949]

ATEEZ stands for A to Z or A TEEnager Z. It's pronounced like the very first time you said it, not like 80s. Both syllables have even stress; it's a hard t as in 'he is A tease." When the fans yell Break the Wall at the end, they are sooo loud that the members said they can't even hear the music through their in-ears! Here's a link to a KZbin short from a performance--funny thing, it isn't even their concert; there were multiple groups performing: kzbin.infoeYZFA-NjRmE?si=4pSk4MOM_gEB4jOO If you want something distinctly rock, I recommend their remake of Black Cat Nero or if you want something with a different style of instrumental, I recommend Halazia or the Real. Their recent videos have gotten 100M views in about 3 months (Bouncy and Crazy Form). The first rapper is their captain, Hongjoong and he also often works with their production team. KQ created a new group last year--xikers. Hongjoong helped write and produce many of the songs on their first two mini-albums. I would say xikers recent release, We Don't Stop, has more of a Beastie Boys sound. Thanks for the reaction!

[@dr6959]

Please check out their Coachella performance sometime. They are absolutely crazy live. Also, if you do continue seeing their mvs, know that they have a storyline throughout their vids since debut. Usually, the end of their mvs have a teaser at the end so make sure to finish the vids.

[@piadinah]

❤ Oh Ateez are the best all their songs are good try listen to the outlaw albume its so good More Ateez please You should react to Coechella they had a live band with them. i like that very much

[@Alysh5]

I see Ateez I click directly

[@babababibel]

You should watch their live

[@tylerkim68]

I hope you guys check out their song Cyberpunk as well. Also as other people have mentioned you should definitely check out Guerilla (Flag Vers.) it actually incorporates way more guitar into it where you hear a lot of the synths. I honestly love that version a lot more. The alternative/rock/emo to K-pop pipeline is pretty big and most of the people I know that are part of this pipeline really enjoy Stray Kids and Ateez as they are considered part of the “Noise” genre of K-pop. What I think it is, is that we can head bang much more to these songs than some of the other K-pop stuff.

[@badgirlmelreacts4201]

Yes guys never expected ateez on your channel

[@hwanicream9456]

[@كانديموون]

I saw ATEEZ I clicked ❤

[@jsway40]

Not sure if anyone commented. It is pronounced "A-Tease" and the fandom is "A-Teeny". " Break the Wall " is a fan chant. If you get a chance, look up stage videos of that part in concerts. You can hear the fan chat from outside of the venues. When performing this at Coachella, you could hear it from the other stages. It was/is so loud. They have stated it gets so loud that they cannot hear the backtrack and just go with memory movements or floor vibrations to do choreo while performing.

[@michellemelerskj1917]

A tip watch the mv to the full end there are some hints for the story /next mv 😊

[@bamse_beck]

Thank you for reacting to Ateez. I'm glad you liked it. 😊

[@EbonRaven]

Welcome to ATEEZ! You've already got a bunch of comments on how to pronounce the names of the members, the group, and the fans. So I think you're good there. I also second the recommendations for checking out The Real, The Black Cat Nero, Bouncy, Halazia, Wonderland, and Crazy Form. (Honestly, like many others, there are no songs in their discography that I don't enjoy.) There was someone who mentioned that the "Break the Wall" chant was very loud at Coachella, and they aren't kidding. That was not an ATEEZ concert, so it didn't have the fan base to the same extent that the arena tours do, and yet, the Coachella livestreams at the ENTIRELY OTHER END OF THE FESTIVAL (which is a 15 minute walk away from the stage that ATEEZ was on) still hear the chant clearly. Not only that, but if you listen carefully, you can also hear Jongho's high note in the livestream (he is their main vocalist and the youngest in the group). His vocals are so good that at one performance, their sound system went out and he carried on and fans in the upper tiers of seats could still clearly hear him without a mic. While they were in California for Coachella, he went back to LA in between the weekends so that he could get some additional vocal training while they were there. The whole group is incredible. Seonghwa (the one who came out of the elevator) often does their super high siren voice for songs while Jongho carries the main vocals. Hongjoong can sing most of the different vocal tracks and even covered for Jongho during part of last year when Jongho was injured and had to fly back to Korea for surgery. Yeosang and Mingi have very deep voices, but Yunho can double for Mingi to provide supporting deep vocals when needed. (Looking up their Fantastic Baby cover and you can actually hear how deep Yunho can go. Mingi starts it with a very deep rap, but Yunho takes over for part of it.) Now I'm babbling. Sorry, not sorry. I love these young men very much. They are just incredible human beings and deserve so much more recognition than they have had. I'm so very proud of everything that they have accomplished and while my pocketbook cries because they are finally becoming more well-known and it will make concerts and merch more expensive, I cannot regret that they are being recognized for being as amazing as they are.

Thank you for reacting to Ateez! Was hoping you'd check them out after I saw your reaction to The Rose the other day! My recommendations are Halazia, Black cat nero and Wonderland. Or for something super fun from them - The Real, which has really interesting instrumentals. They're going to be at Summer Sonic, a rock festival in Japan and really hope they get inspired to come back to some rocky/metal sounds!

[@bronzepistachio]

HI! First time here. Thank you for reacting to Ateez's Guerrilla. Their previous World tour was named "Break The Wall" after this song. The Break The Wall fanchant in the song goes crazy - i had the good fortune to witness this live on the tour last year. There is actually a guitar-heavy version of this song in a later EP, The World Ep: Paradigm - it's called Guerrilla (Flag version), which I prefer. There's no mv for it though. If you'd like to listen to other musicians' covers of this song, you can check out those by thatkpopguitarist and Djuni. 🔥 🔥 🔥 The former has done more than 30 covers of Ateez's songs (he's a big Atiny) and the latter has done metal covers of Ateez's Halazia, Guerrilla and Crazy Form. Sorry for rambling, just wanna share the love, not requesting for your reaction to those covers (unless you want to, of course) Will definitely check out your music. 😊

[@meajess9580]

[@crystal_lily_1208]

thanks for the ateez reaction!! since you guys obviously know a lot about rock, I would recommend guerrilla flag ver. - it’s basically an official remix of guerrilla with LOTS of guitar, there isn’t an official music video so you could watch it by yourselves if you’d like I would also recommend the real and say my name, since they’re like ateez’s signature songs (at least to me) Also here’s how I’d explain how to pronounce ateez: Think of it like eight-eez and then say it like eigh-teez (which is a coincidence since they also have 8 members)

[@Nain06]
