Musicians react to hearing Lorna Shore for the first time (video blur due to copyright block) !

Hey everyone, Chris and Sam are back with another reaction video!
Lorna Shore came up in the comments from some other videos so we decided to check out this popular song from them to get started with catching up with their music! Our first attempt to post the full video reaction was blocked so we had to blur out the video out to keep KZbin from blocking the video completely. We tried several ways, but this was the only thing that worked.

There's a video where Will does this song in 1 take. You might enjoy it. There's also a video on the Charismatic Voice where he goes to medical specialists to take video of his vocal chords while he makes those noises.

[@heffatheanimal2200]

Oh yeah, after watching this music vid you gotta see Will's one take vocal of it

[@mile_high_topher]

The Charismatic Voice video is awesome.

[@FlickAndStuff]

The one take honestly got me back into Lorna Shore. Will flexed so hard in that

[@victorstewart395]

You have to understand that these guys the last two years completely disrupted the genre by both making the heaviest and most intense sound with everything fans of the genre love and also introducing things that address everything people hate about the genre. Their songs are a wall of blast beats and inhuman demon noises but with the structure and melodic elements of way less heavier stuff. And nowhere is that more evident than in their Pain Remains trilogy. They completely broke the internet when they released music videos of what quickly went to be known as “deathcore ballads” and “those deathcore songs that made people cry of emotion” so you get an idea of how much revolutionary these guys are. If you plan on giving them another chance (specially since reactions to this song are guaranteed views so you’ll soon be run over by people commenting here) I’ll 100% recommend you to react to that Pain Remains trilogy.

[@steveratcliffe2181]

Agree. Pain Remains is a must. I am not a deathcore guy at all but Pain Remains totally transcends the genre. It's a thing of beauty. Not for everyone but needs a listen for sure.

[@madveiler]

Will's one take vocal performance of this song will blow your mind. Unbelievable talent.

[@heffatheanimal2200]

12:14 "There's the breakdown" Nah, that's A breakdown 😁

[@isaacsanchez3310]

Will Ramos uses various techniques, fry screaming mostly, lots of tunnel throat, uses different positions of his tongue to get those high screams and those gutterol lows. He also uses the openesss of his mouth to create the different tones too. He has had multiple interviews with how he does things, has literal one takes doing everything that they actually recorded. and there is also another technique he uses where he forces air in his mouth to create specific sounds. Dude is a Death metal vocal genius and probably the best metal vocalist I have ever heard in my 28 years

[@jamielynnpowers]

The pig squeal at the end was influenced by Dickie Allen, Goblin King and singer of Infant Annihilator. Will Ramos said in an interview that they needed something for that breakdown, and when he did one pig squeal, the guys were like, “YES, now do that 3 more times.” The song IS super technical but I’m obsessed with it (as well as the back catalog before Will joined, Will’s side projects and covers…just all of it.) It gets me through my gym routine, though traffic, helps me write my book when I’m feeling uninspired, and gives me an outlet when I’ve had my fill of workplace stupidity (with earbuds, of course.) Not only that, Will is one of the most charming, down to earth, and appreciative metal vocalists I’ve ever heard of. He’s always going out of his way to meet fans and is just a doll. I’ve always loved heavy music, but since going down the Lorna Shore rabbit hole, I can’t go back to more mainstream heavy music. It all sounds too light and I’ll say it…even boring. Just goes to show there’s a sound for everyone!

[@jimronnysrlie8601]

Austin Archey is an incredible drummer. And what a way to introduce a new vocalist!!!! Will Ramos is one of the best death core vocalists atm in my opinion! :) You should check out Sun//Eater or Pain remains I: Dancing like flames. The latter is somewhat a deathcore ballad, and It's one of my favorite Lorna songs :)

[@ScreamingSilently666]

Subbing for his one take of this and the pain remains trilogy 🤘

[@JariJuslin]

One thing I appreciate here is the skill in composition and mixing. They have *so* many elements and styles in this, often played at offensive speed, so the result could be just terrible if not done very well. The fact that they can make it an assault that still flows smoothly is commendable. I think this is the only Lorna Shore track I have on my usual playlists because this is, mmm, easy listening when it comes to the storytellin and so. Pain Remains trilogy is... masterful, but the amount of sadness in it is just too much for me to bear very often.

[@robdurfee6861]

I definitely recommend checking out more of Lorna Shore, this was their flex song, but they have more dynamics in other songs and their vocalist Will is one of the best in the genre

[@plethorasauroustv9242]

You need to watch the Pain Remains Trilogy. Like others have said, this song was definitely for shock value as well as showing off their new vocalist. Their latest album (and the other songs on the EP this song comes off of) has such diversity within their pocket of metal. So much so that people who arent metal fans listen to it. I cant express enough, Listen to Pain Remains. At the very least the first part Dancing Like Flames (Yes its a three act piece). The emotion put in not just from the videos, but from the musicians is actually unreal.

[@dillonsronce2583]

I have never heard a kick drum played that fast by a single drummer ever.

[@baulzzzzzzz2278]

“Maybe they break it down by the end here I don’t know.” He has no idea guys…

[@wolfinthesno]

You guys may not have been prepared, but you did an excellent reaction videos. To be fair this is in one of the most extreme genres of music that I can think of "Death Core", this song in particular sent them from "something to keep an eye on" to "All eyes on Lorna Shore" for the foreseeable future, the EP that this song is off of was absolutely breathtakingly heavy, while somehow being the most Accessible death core sound I've ever heard. Lorna Shore is singlehandedly responsible for reinvigorating my own personal interest in DeathCore, where before "To the Hellfire" I was actively skipping a lot of DeathCore to after that song I listen to almost every band I can find under that genre. It is also worth noting that their Lyrics are bar none some of the best writing I have heard since a few years ago when I deep dove Gojira. Do not sleep on these guys, check out some more of their music, I recommend Sun//Eater Lyrics video next!!

[@D1ne-O-SAur]

Oh man, Sun Eater is awesome! But Also the Pain Remains Trilogy. Have checked Cj's new band "Immortal Disfigurement" the song dragged through the inferno is a good flex haha

[@georgehenry8391]

Listen to that song enough times, maybe 3 or 4, and its hidden beauty and subtlety emerge. The band members do all the perfect things at the perfect times, in the perfect way, etc. 11/10 if that's possible.

[@paulstotter5916]

I'd recommend listening to the following songs from Lorna Shore. Into the Earth, Sun//Eater, and Cursed to Die. Then watch Austin Archeys drum playthoughs for them songs. Guy is absolutely insane

[@markmedina4574]

So glad you took a look at Lorna Shore!!!! Dive deep into the Lorna rabbit hole head first!!!! You won’t regret it!

[@xupaii1397]

If you've yet to hear them, I thoroughly recommend giving Ne Obliviscaris a try! And Plague Flowers the Kaleidoscope is a great song by them :)

[@drsmith1231]

First channel i've ever seen to open their video by reading comments of the reaction their doing, I love that! Super engaging and fun!

[@offseteraofficialband]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@psychobetha]

i love that you said it sounds like you’re in Diablo… when i was trying to explain what they sound like to my nephew to get him to check them out i just said “final boss fight music.” he’s now going with me to see them live in June. he was surprised to hear i liked these guys, and i pointed to this song as my ground zero for starting to listen to more extreme metal. before lorna the heaviest i regularly listened to was slipknot. now my collection includes lorna, slaughter to prevail, undeath, cannibal corpse, infant annihilator, carcosa, left to suffer, and more 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@xariexis]

Add Shadow of Intent to that list, they are GOATS!!

[@psychobetha]

@@xariexis i’ll check them out, thanks 😃

[@namjoonssexybrain1679]

You probably already have heard of them but Brand of Sacrifice is amazing. I just discovered Left to Suffer, their new album is rad as fuck.

[@stephenneil9345]

Austin plays heel to toe.

[@andreluizcastro5163]

Welcome back o sweet dreamer is a great song too.

[@Zanzamar555]

Great reactions. I didn’t quite like this song either the first time i heard it, but I respected the skill and intensity of it and the more I listened to it, the more it possessed my soul. Now im fully possessed by this masterpiece and love to surrender to the darkness of this powerful “song”. It grows on you if you choose to subject yourself to it’s punishment. Also look up the lyrics to better understand it’s meaning. It’s basically about a human dieing and surrendering to the pit of hell and fully embracing being fully possessed by a demonic force at the end. At least that’s how I interpreted it. Peace 🤣👍

[@antlelauralee]

Subbed hoping for more Lorna reactions! Try Into The Earth or Sun Eater 🖤

[@CaptainFalc0nPunch]

With their music lyrics are surprisingly well written and definitely add to the intensity of the music in future listens. Like good dark classical poetry.

[@svtpower03]

Hell yeah I grew up not far from old bride NJ. Played alot of hardcore shows out there with my band back in early 2000’s at Burch hill and stuff.

[@MarkyMark8484]

Loved this reaction man. As other comments have said, listen to Will Ramos' one take vocal on this song. Its insane.

[@helli0n824]

the next one they released was "...and i return to nothingness", it has another music video ... your choice of your path: EP 2021 to the hellfire - done 1th musicvideo (since Will Ramos entered the Band) of the abyss - no musicvideo but a good lyrical ...and i return to nothingness - musicvideo 2nd release Album "Pain Remains" -welcome back, o´sleeping dreamer - no video -Into the Earth - MV , 4th release -Sun//Eater - musicvideo 3rd release -Cursed to Die - musicvideo 5th -Soulless Existence - no video (needed because it paints beautiful pictures in your head) -Apotheosis - no video ("+ heavy symphonics and choirs use here) -Wrath - no video -Pain Remains Trilogy , has 3 musicvideos and everyone is yelling "DO THEM NOOOOOWWWWWW" @ you ... keep the best for last is what i am yelling ! following the way the band released their musicvideos is a good way, interrupted by some one take vocal/drums/bass/guitar video here and there this is kind of request ;)

[@helli0n824]

and i forgot you just reacted the "worst" song, because if you go down the musicvideo releases you will notice that every next song adds more symphonic, choirs and bad ass metal riffs and guitar licks :) very enjoyable

[@ScarecrowShoots]

Listening to austin on the drums would lead one to think this guy is in full on hatred sprint mode the entire track

[@EvansExplorations]

The kick drums are so fast because he is using toe/heal pedals so each rock of the foot is 2 hits. So basically the pedals let him run at 2x speed compared to typical double bass.

[@Sinted]

Two things- 1). Coincidentally, the first (albeit somewhat unofficial) expansion for Diablo 1 was named Hellfire 2). If you want to hear another good Tristram-esque acoustic guitar into Metal song, give Forget Not by Ne Obliviscaris a shot.

[@angelabordack]

Check out The Will Ramos, the one take vocal performance of this song (he’s the singer).

[@GryLi]

Try Nightwish 7 days to the wolfes from wembley

[@CrippledMerc]

The drummer, Austin, is made of twisted steel and sex appeal😂

[@koryhelm8515]

Their drummer Austin Archey was touring for a while (I'm not sure for how long) with I'm pretty sure was multiple herniated discs (I know he had bad back problems for sure) and doing all of this insane playing.

[@BellahMel07]

Lol those Hellfire reactions mever get old😂

[@BigDaddyBeefPatty]

Those drummers use something called the heel toe technique. Its basically double stroking the pedal with each foot so hes only actually moving his feet about half that fast but the technique is very hard and it is still very fast. Thats not taking anything away from his skill. His name is Austin Archie and hes a fucking animal.

[@bbig438]

"HOW DOES HE DO THAT?" if you havent seen it yet, TheCharismaticVoice met up with the singer Will Ramos and stuck a camera down his throat to see what actually happens, its very cool

[@ichigokotetsu9540]

the first part of the singing has a layered effect on it, a telephone effect sort of -reduced lows

[@michaeljamrozy4299]

Watch the camera vid down Will's throat

[@OmervandenBelt-vm2qz]

The Charismatic Voice has a video on her channel in which they put a camera down Will's throat.

[@basbeest2238]

For some real easy money, Will Ramos should do voices/sound effects for evil videogame bosses :)

[@sandraleuchtenberger8543]

Their drummer Austin Archey also has some vids on YT showing off his drumming skills. Worth a view!

[@SoulSlave92]

Everyone feels violated after hearing this for the first time. Its just what it is

[@penseesdeseb4919]

For the "pig high scream", I don't kwon for him, but for me, the easy way to do is just let the tong low and push it forward during "wisper" and just a little reduce the width of top throat. If you look the "one take vocal" of him and look what he does, some tricks are visibles, and after just try with your anatomy. (but do it safely :) )

[@kennettekarlsullivan7826]

LORNA SHORE FOREVER

[@Ohiostatefan221985]

Pain Remains Part 1 2 and 3 are a must. It will pull at your heartstrings, even though it is death core

[@TheJokesterSCR]

Will's 1 take of this song sounds WAY more badass, to be honest. It's just him with no backing vocals or anything. And somehow it sounds even more awesome. BUT... aside from this song, their Pain Remains trilogy is a MUST!

[@jordanlee3972]

Lorna Shore - Into The Earth. Is one of the heaviest songs I've ever heard! You should check it out

[@stephaniemcalpine3815]

I actually use this song *a lot* to help me fall asleep.

[@samcullen4667]

Will is an amazing vocalist. Check out the Pain remains trilogy, Sun//Eater, I return to nothingness, aannddd his Sleep Token covers. By far one of the best in the genre right along side Alex Terrible and Dickie Allen. His cleans are absolutely amazing as well. 🤘🖤

[@richardeyes5159]

Great reaction guys you should do the pain remains trilogy and the really hear will ramos do a sleep token cover hypnosis or chokehold but jump right into it

[@poisonfrog13]

As above check out the one takes that both will and the drummer do. Next song sun//eater

[@kapla2004]

This song is weirdly accessible

[@LiveAndDie85]

Rule no1 never stop mid breakdown

[@steveratcliffe2181]

I hated this band at first listen(i grew up in the 80s) but when the Pain Remains Trilogy came out... Totally change my opinion. Pretty much play them every day. I think this song has more shock value because of the brutal breakdowns but i recommend a deeper dive. The Pain Remains album is very good.

[@gullybear20]

My sister used to live in Old Bridge 🙂

[@jerodcollmar9842]

Why doesn’t Mr Barber and company get recognition. It began with him. Listen to “Void”. Dopest Lorna Ever! Will is also a bad mf.

[@pandupandita58]

Lorna Shore the best Symphonic DeathCore Band 🖤🤘 And Will Ramos the vocal is a Demonic 😈

[@unqualifiedkoala4789]

listen to the sound of a tazmanian devil and see if it reminds you of the last breakdown vocals

[@JonboyKoi]

Im late to the reaction, but.... There is no layering in his vocals. All screams are done by him and there is no post production layering. 😊 I know, its insane.

[@vegasviking86]

Sooo... Demolisher by Slaughter to Prevail next? Lmao

[@JeFilm94]

You made some comments about the lack of dynamics, and I gotta really disagree - BUT I get where you're coming from and what you mean. There is little dynamic to be found in terms of softness to loudness, because that's the genre, but there is definitely dynamics in how the track rides through the different parts. Yes, there are parts 😅 but I do understand that unaccustomed ears only hears "brrrrrrr" as you put it, hehe. I like to compare this kind of music to whiskey. If you're not used to it and drink it for the first time there's a good chance you're only gonna taste the alcohol because of how strong it is. But if you get accustomed to it and experience more you're gonna taste the nuances.

[@brandtcarroll9316]

You're just trying to listen to it like mainstream music. Slow music you can process every note because it's so simple. You follow this music based on how it moves, the speed is like water flowing in the background.

[@SilentEcho16]

Watch Pain Remains I: Dancing Like Flames. If you choose to continue after that, God speed.

[@TMConstructionOntario]

We are gonna turn you into metal heads, you watch lol should watch the live version Will does of this, you hear his voice more clearly and its actually better then the recording in my opinion.

[@lxrdvirs]

What is he doin to discribe the brums💀😂

[@McGovney1286]

Watch an Austin Archey play through on any song he is an amazing drummer.

[@lungus78]

Really?? You blur the video due to copy rights??? Hahaha, you guys made my day… fyi check some other reaction videos 😂😂🤦🏻‍♂️

[@offseteraofficialband]

Yes, I was really stressed out trying to figure out a way to get this to post without being blocked and it was very annoying seeing that so many people have been able to do it without it being blocked. I suspect it has something to do with the fact that we always do ours in full screen.

[@austerityclause]

Read the lyrics... It sounds like the death rails. It sounds like hes dying.

[@spitz5183]

That's not a pig squeal; it's just a high scream.

[@suicidalsnowman57]

You need to listen to Infant Annihilator!

[@max_jank3247]

That man on the right spoke too soon! Way too soon almost missed the best part

[@jamessewell5636]

How long have you been into metal must be less than 6 months good luck

[@ScarecrowShoots]

Do you think there is breathing room on a trip to hell? 😉

[@hex_a_lexa]

"There's the breakdown", lol at that point you had already missed one breakdown, and then another one comes lol also yes he meant to sound like a pig.

[@metalmark1214]

I've got my dog practicing growl vocals for a death metal band. He needs work on his pronunciation and cadence 😂
