Metal Musician Reacts to Architects | Goliath (feat. Simon Neil) |

[@defailers]

3:29 "Dude, he's yelling at me" I think this is the concept of metalcore.

[@mycity7590]

Yes

[@sarcasm4371]

Those screams sounded like someone getting murdered and not in a good way

I was wondering which shirt he changed to this time. To bad I could only see a floating head.

I see what you did there.

I didn’t know a Dragon Slayer listen to Architects! 😍😍😍❤️

[@ThatBlindGuy247]

Hearing Simon scream like that after years was such a good surprise

[@gomaboto]

I need more of it! I miss the earlier biffy sound

[@TheHaggis0451]

Have you heard the last Biffy album? It's not on the level of this but Simon has decent chunk of screaming on that album

[@ThatBlindGuy247]

@@TheHaggis0451 i haven't really listened since Opposites

[@gomaboto]

@@TheHaggis0451 only song I liked on it was Cop Syrup. The rest were a bit forgettable as they've been for many years now. I wish they did more records that had the Infinity Land and Vertigo of Bliss sound

[@mono]

I'm only really into new biffy, whats their heaviest album? I'd love to check the older stuff out!

[@Tasmandutch]

Best song of the album, period. Chills when I heard Simon's screams for the first time!

[@fergusmacleod9540]

Simon has screamed so much in the past 😂

[@CacklingAntagonist]

Amazing section. Reminded me of old days Biffy

[@Antizokker]

They have quiet a lot Biffy songs where he screams. But yes awesome song

[@TheRombo91]

Biffy’s back catalogue features quite a few songs where Simon screams , like “ there’s no such thing as a jaggy snake” “bonanzoid deathgrip” and “ stress on the sky” they are all great 👍🏻

[@AgainstTheeWickedlyMusic]

Replies: Pretty sure the original comment meant his screams in this song, not in general

[@slvtrdna3130]

*_These thumbnails are getting more and more intense..._*

[@erich1380]

Something about this album has to get intense lol

[@satwikmandi7135]

Yeah! Man the thumbnails... Damn! 🔥

[@Th3xCyph3r]

Yeah Man 😂👌🏻 Really Really Intense, LOL 🤣

[@nolankuffner3573]

Fuck, I never expected a song featuring a dude from Biffy Clyro to be the feature on what is super catchy and insanely heavy. And yeah, the Gojira nod is spot on for the drum work.

[@J4CKMUSIC06]

Simon is also the lead singer in Empire State bastard . They’re very heavy , and not as well known but amazing

[@deimos.93]

I feel like Nik should do some Starset reactions.

[@slvtrdna3130]

Yeah he should. Starset are great!

[@deimos.93]

He should prob start with vessels imo then so some songs from transmissions and then divisions

[@Scott-mb9nh]

100%

[@ianwaking]

He would definitely enjoy Bringing it down, Monster, Carnivore, and Where the Skies End

[@cheesesteak983]

Dude he’d love Starset

[@harveydjent_]

I’m picking these based purely on Nik’s face in the thumbnails.

[@TheUltimateNoobHD]

My favorite from this album ngl

[@SodawarsGaming]

I think this is my favorite song on the album. The riffs are killer, great chorus, and Simon's vocals are just unreal.

[@DG_427]

That part with Simon is just pure fucking gold.

[@gabrielpadua3568]

Simon screaming was a surprise for me, Very good Man

[@Franciscogonzalez-un7hp]

This song is way much better than meteor, great song.

[@zoltanujvary770]

Meteor is one my favorite from this album😂😅🙈

[@trs5127]

Meteor is probably my least favourite on the album. It's good, just still feels below Architects standard

[@fergusmacleod9540]

Mad getting biffy on the track will defo attract architects a lot of attention by a diff genre music fans

[@fergusmacleod9540]

Nik you should check out Biffy Clyro (the band Simon Neil's in), they're not a metal band but you'd definitely appreciate Neil's guitar work

Early work is close to metal.

I think this is the best song I've heard so far. That main riff is great, the verses don't kill the song's momentum, the chorus is still good, and the vocal feature was cool.
