Tallah “Vanilla Paste” | Aussie Metal Heads Reaction

[@Tallah]

Thank you so much for the reaction! You guys were really entertaining to watch. If you ever wanna dig into more Tallah, we highly recommend Overconfidence, LED, or We The Sad. We've got a ton of others, but those are the crowd favorites for sure. Cheers!

[@nathandjohnny]

Our pleasure and glad you enjoyed the reaction 🤘🏽looking forward to more

[@murksiii]

The vocalist of Tallah, Justin, is a beast overall in terms of versatility, his cleans and harsh vocals… as a big inspiration he has mentioned Disney villains and you can definitely hear that because he has many different voices and his almost orchestral parts sound like the "I am the bad guy and tell you my evil plan in a sung manner" xD Their debut album is killer from back to finish and oh also the drummer is the son of Mike Portnoy…

[@evanblake5252]

The dude can do like a billion different styles, and does them all so well, it's insane.

[@no_imdirtydan]

If you're going to check out more of their stuff I definitely recommend Overconfidence. Also the drummer, Max Portnoy, is the son of Dream Theatre's Drummer

[@scry5]

overconfindence andLED are probably the two best tracks

[@skytex9227]

@@scry5 +1

[@leonardovieira9880]

Tallah is insane, the album they dropped last year was AOTY for me, so crazy and so versatile. Please check more songs by them, I'd recommend Overconfidence, L.E.D. and No One Should Read This. Justin's one take vocal videos are also a must watch.

[@pooty195]

Never heard these guys but this song made me a fan

[@NomDeGuerre91]

that's how I was with their song No One Should Read This. They different and I like the fuck out of it.

[@rowanfloof]

Lmao I love how fucking chaotic and all over the place this song is

[@lootaloover]

As someone who’s been following the music career of the Lead singer, Justin Bonitz, for 12 years I’m so very happy he’s finally getting some decent recognition for his talent.

[@Hexand]

You should read the description of the video of Vanilla Paste, it explains the idea behind the clip perfectly.

[@evanblake5252]

I'm so glad you guys picked up on and addressed the main vocalist's harmonies in the background of AJ's verse. I've seen almost nobody mention that, and it is killer.

[@krumpetkrumbs2040]

The drummer is Max Portnoy, son of Mike Portnoy, drummer from Dream Theatre.

[@breezif6501]

Tallah is amazing. Also, you pointing out the Sonny vibes was a massive “Ah ha!” Moment for me

[@oneysays]

Tallah is absolute fire. No One Should Read This, Overconfidence, LED. Those would be my recs if you decide to check out other stuff. Love the channel, cheers boys.

[@Mighty_Bangus]

Overconfidence, is a must

[@muaddib4329]

Yeah man these guys give me early Slipknot and Code Orange vibes. Their first record Matriphagy just rips from start to finish and I am unbelievably stoked for their new record. I would agree Overconfidence and L.E.D. (which have music videos) are a good place to go for more of an idea of their usual sound.

[@DaathGrimoire]

Overconfidence, L.E.D., Placenta, Murder Seed and No One Should Read This are must listens from Tallah. Overall; their entire album 'Matriphagy' tells a story about a son trapped by his mother in a house and abused to the point of losing his sanity. Tallah themselves have a whole breakdown of their album explaning the concept they wanted to capture with each song, and Id recommend it Also Justin has some one take vocal covers that are absolutely demonic, check those out too!

[@heathstory9655]

A.J. Is such a dope vocalist! Smooth is an understatement. One of my favorites

[@coldmoonlight6361]

If you guys haven't heard Core Theater by Jared Dines, it has the vocalist from Tallah in it(Justin Bonitz I believe) Awesome song.

[@gabecelaj2901]

You guys really quoted never back down, thats so crazy to me😂

[@embertheraccoon37]

That Code Orange line aged rather well. Also the FGTeeV line, LOL

[@lifeissometal]

Hey Johnny - The clean vocals remind me of Protest the Hero 🤘🏻

[@phaaaze9984]

Totally thought the same thing. Rody Walker vibes

[@nathandjohnny]

Oh yeah I hear that!

[@lifeissometal]

@@phaaaze9984 Right?

[@mads_._]

Go you two bobbleheaded champs go, great reaction vid as always!

[@jacklandon9739]

Tallah is the New Legends been saying it for months now 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@terminal2313]

entire first album, go!

[@FinallHit]

Check out Overconfidence from Tallah. That song is sick!

[@jman01081979]

Definitely check out Overconfidence by Tallah. Great song.

[@__Raze]

You should for sure check out some more Guerilla Warfare, I listened to some of their backlog after hearing this track and it's sick. They've got a pretty recent single BBB worth checking out, and the previous EP is great too. Not sure how suited it'd be to reacting to, but definitely worth giving a listen outside of the channel if you liked the rap hardcore vibe. Also unrelated to the track, planning to check out the most recent single from Don Broco on the channel? Thought it was a banger, although it doesn't have a video to go with it this time

[@Serasu33]

Ok the Protest the Hero vibes at 2:40 are incredible.

[@CarelessOne222]

The clear vocals kind of sound like Rhody from Protest the Hero. Which you should do a video of.

[@giure4447]

I felt like there was a misalignment between music and words which is disturbing but also interesting and I enjoyed. I have no idea who the bands and the respective vocalists are but I can say that the second artist, the ones who raped was my favourite; he killed! I think I'm gonna listen to that song again at least to understand if I like it or not because there were so many things that I'm pretty sure I miss some. Plus I actually wasn't able to understand the lyrics well. Anyway, thanks to those who requested!

[@stephenfrench2003]

I say this on every reaction channel. His cleans sound like Daryl palumbo from Glassjaw

[@evanblake5252]

It makes sense since it is the most recent, and I think it's a damn good one, but man is this a wild one to start people off with who are new to Tallah. Vanilla Paste is easily one of their weirdest and most experimental to date.

[@grahamhamiltonmusic]

Singing bit reminds me of old school From First to Last

[@grahamhamiltonmusic]

Damn it.. Just got to where Nath said it LOL

[@codyallen9188]

I love this song very entertaining and different in that case but I jam out to it!

[@RyAnxiety1]

I was thinking Code Orange also with the guitar riffs.

[@vMATIKv]

Brand of sacrifice - lifeblood - one of the best modern deathcore band

[@derdoo77]

Good Morning Party People ✨💪🏻

[@stacycopeland5619]

One of my favorites of Tallah you guys should check out is "We the Sad", it's a banger.

[@hauntedsmore]

yeahh!!

[@TEXAS_SKOLDIER]

So if I snort a shit load of B vitamins, I can lose like 200lbs!? Challenge accepted lmao jk. *Victory* by Fire From the Gods Feat. Matt B. from From Ashes to New. *Ghost* by Imminence

[@EetYajKundorp]

Nice reaction gents! I'm not familiar with Fire from the Gods but that little feature on this song gave me major Lajon Witherspoon/Sevendust vibes. Just me?

[@nathandjohnny]

Very similar tones, definitely a band worth checking out!

[@sophiemaratheftis1770]

you guys have to do the new we came as romans song - black hole!!

[@jaradlonsdale8595]

The clean vocals remind me of Skrillex in From First to Last - Heroine * Wrote this before you nailed it:)

[@Metaljonus]

Van Damm splits lmao

[@Brancr]

i also feel the nee to point out the drummer is insanely goated.... that cunt has a different set of skills, one his own father (dream theatre's mike portnoy), i believe his name is max and its nuttyyyyyyyy

[@sopuckrj]

Welcome to the nu-core world of Tallah

[@ugg10video76]

You need to do Justin's one take vocal of Overconfidence or LED! EPIC! (official videos are also very good)

[@shannameadows5406]

Hmmmmm? I don't know. I like it, I think. Voices are great. You guys were totally on point with the comparisons to other bands. You guys STAY FROSTY! 💋💋

[@petelannen3077]

The Drummer is Max Portnoy son of Mike Portnoy.

[@deathcoredefense7353]

Should react to Run It Back by Guerilla Warfare

[@shawnstrebeck2179]

When people see Justin do the splits lol. He's gay btw. Well at least he likes guys I know that much. Maybe he likes girls too? Don't think so though. IM SO HAPPY TO BE REPRESENTED IN THE METAL WORLD BY THIS MAN!!

[@aaronrandolph5588]

Guerrilla warfare is so good

[@anester1866]

check out more Tallah. they're kind of the evolution of Nu-metal. but every song is its own experience. and please check out Hungry Lights. thats the vocalists solo project that he's been working on since long before Tallah. im going to to subscribe to you guys right now. please search and react to Hungry Lights - Reflaugh (one-take vocal video) Justin does everything. this is his music and his alone.

[@Molineitor_]

Pleasee do the new Darko song Dragon Chaser! It's amazing!

[@rushen6803]

that was a journey, hahaha...but i liked.

[@anester1866]

nonexpected vocals are very expected if you know more of Justin's music ;)

[@alu1371]

bro check also darko us-dragon chaser new track

[@Alex-qq8fo]

Please react to SKINNY DIPPING by Sabrina Carpenter! It just came out and sounds amazing!!

[@nachomansandyravage2346]

This song is insanely great...but disagree with saying the ending is the weakest. Tom is an amazingly great vocalist, check out Darko US. But like everyone else says Overconfidence is a tasty jam too

[@nathandjohnny]

We’ve checked out Darko US and no denying he’s great, but on this one it missed the mark for us compared to the rest of the track

[@benedekistvan2655]

WATCH OVERCONFIDENCE NEXT

[@16Domanieke]

Please react to Wild Side by Normani ft. Cardi B ❤️‍🔥🙏🏽

[@nathandjohnny]

It’s a little old now and not really a track we’re interested in sorry!

[@anester1866]

guess what. he says a lot of his vocals are influenced by cartoon characters :)

[@Tmasseee]

Hot mulligan?

[@chrisbirch3243]

Overconfidence by Tallah if u don’t know it !!!!!

[@nehemiasgonzalez6989]

OVERCONFIDENCE!!!!!!!!!!!

[@danwelsh6706]

FUKN TALLAH RUUUULE

[@StrangMuZ6]

I'm going to be totally honest. I didn't really like it. It was okay I was just waiting for tallah breakdown got 1 but was a eh for me

[@simonk337]

I like Tallah, but this is just a mess.

[@Ian-H76]

I’m in the minority, but I thought this tune was just rubbish. Trying too hard to be different

[@Sergiopinedais]

Why you stop that damn song 🙄

[@nathandjohnny]

That’s literally the point of this channel, to break down songs
