Old Composer REACTS to Loath Two Way Mirror - First Time Listen and Breakdown
Loathe Reaction

[@babyhandgrenade4004]

I love it when the older generation is open-minded to the music of younger generations. I love seeing that he's open-minded like this. He gave an honest opinion and I respect that.

[@CJ_Nightlives]

Sickkkk, Fez their bassist is a personal friend of mine. Hilarious guy , Incredible musician and a great photographer too

[@user-wv5gv3dw5u]

Bruh Im seriously jealous

[@rowanb4395]

He's the only guy I didn't meet when I saw them play 2+ years ago! Good to hear. All good dudes. They are sick live.

[@mondrian5620]

That’s Fckn awesome.

[@BetaBreaking]

Give him a thank you from us. This album is sick and the bass line during the crunchy guitar part is great

[@joemama7853]

His sense of style is admirable

[@jctheii]

WHO IS SUGGESTING THESE TO YOU!? My goodness the greatness doesn’t stop! Please checkout “Is It Really You?” by the band Loathe🖤 their entire new album is amazing. 🤘🏽

[@Peristox]

Best song on the album, which is my album of the year imo

[@TheDjfranco100]

Yes fucking yes !!! Loathe as One!

[@TheLatino6988]

oh my fucking god yes please please PLEASE do "is it really you?"

[@viciousoz4188]

pls pls pls

[@saltaeyy]

Literally everything by them would be worth reacting. My absolute favourite band!! That being said New Faces in the Dark is my fav song and I'd love to see him react to that one

[@vexsten1105]

Loathe's album from last year, I Let It In and It Took Everything, is incredible. My favorites from the album include "Screaming", "Is It Really You?", and "Heavy is the Head That Falls With the Weight of a Thousand Thoughts".

[@xbigjeffe]

vexsten spotted in the wild

[@vexsten1105]

@@xbigjeffe uh oh you caught me

[@halaljerkbeef]

Heavy is the Head is a song that just goes to 13 different places. Incredible song.

[@Sweeeetpeaches69]

I am so in love with "Screaming". I absolutely love playing the drums to that song. The drummer switching to hitting on the upbeat in the song in certain periods is killer

[@wllulu]

Same

[@albreezy26]

Man never thought I'd see Loathe here. This is their most "conventional" song but I would totally suggest anything off their most recent hit album "I Let it in and it took everything" Would be cool to see some ERRA or Thornhill on here to get your take

[@BarrySchanz]

My suggestion is Irreversible by Erra

[@albreezy26]

@@BarrySchanz If I had to pick one of each band I mentioned I would go Loathe-Screaming Thornhill-Views from the sun ERRA-Augment

[@myvisionisaugmented2984]

Expiate or Augment by Erra and Screaming by Loathe would be amazing

[@Gwunhar]

@@myvisionisaugmented2984 Expiate is such a fantastic track. I'd love to see that one on here.

[@jakehyland7458]

Where we go when we die by Thornhill is definitely the way to go. For Erra i would check out one of their newer songs snowblood

[@user-wv5gv3dw5u]

I'd listen to "Is it really you?" by Loathe next. its such a beautiful song as well

[@kaynesantor8136]

Loathe is super cool. I wouldn't call this song a good representation of their style. It's still a great track. All you can do is just get lost and daydream to it. Nice work man, glad you got to these guys. They are sick. Still here.

[@northtimo666]

True. It is a great song, but their overall sound is much more than this.

[@rowanb4395]

@@northtimo666 Very true, people hear a few song and just hear 'deftones' LOL. I'd Imagine these guys just use their influences and hope people can understand the variety they put into their album as a whole. Even if a few songs sound very influenced by a certain band, you have to remeber there's not just one person writing the tracks. THe write tracks separately and bring them to the table.

[@CFChristian]

I was waiting for White Hot to autoplay. 😂

[@rowanb4395]

@@CFChristian He is a consummate professional. No auto play :)

[@carriefish]

I've never clicked on a video so fast. How did you get into Loathe?! 😭❤🙏🏻

[@fern3455]

Gonna keep suggesting VOLA. I know they will blow your mind. Can't wait for that reaction vid.

[@mrstabby5465]

Yes to Vola! You'll love them I'm sure!

[@dekadenser]

Been waiting for the VOLA aswell. New album is fucking awesome!

[@TyronTention]

Please do more Loathe. The album this song comes from is incredible.

[@RyanTaylor-hd7zg]

I remember when Loathe released this song as a single a year ago and it was hard to describe how it made me feel. It was somber, yet hopeful. Quite melancholic. I've listened to it countless times all year and I always get the same feeling. I swear I can always smell summer rain when I close my eyes in the bridge hits. Its odd lol, but its amazing what they captured. Kadeem France (the Vocalist for the verses) said in an interview that the song was about his first "man-to-man" conversation with his father, who he had a bad relationship with. Once I read through the interview, I realized it was a sort of empathy and understanding coming from an environment with rocky family relationships. I've never had a real conversation with either of my parents, but it reminds me of my first real conversation with my older brother (my father figure.) Anyways, this band is amazing and the entire album is worth listening to if you're truly interested. One of the few pieces of music to really change my life

[@fharidvalencia2068]

So amazing, I feel the same way with this song, it is one of the recent songs that have made my life better, this in 2020 and Deftones' Sextape in 2010

[@evank8459]

This nails it. If you're still looking for more description after all this time, I'd say it's also the complete opposite of A Sad Cartoon.

[@duncanmckockiner2764]

“I let it in and it took everything” is a great listen as well, the song really represents in an awesome way of what their sound is, at least to me lol

[@revb14n]

CHICKEN SKIN SUGGESTIONS: The Package by A Perfect Circle. Cherry Waves by Deftones. Trains by Porcupine Tree. You rock dude 🤙

[@DJENTISNTNOTAGENRE]

Pretty much all of Thirteenth Step is chicken skin territory

[@jethrofloyd67]

Totally agree! Weak And Powerless gets me every time too, but that first "give this to me" is hands down one of most soul rattling moments in music. Trains is perfect, just a perfect song all around.

[@1johnquist]

If you like shoegaze, post-rock, and a touch of djent.. I highly recommend this one: Lantlos - Azure Chimes

[@kroms1443]

Shoegaze is exactly what I thought when I first heard him sing. Glad I saw this reaction today.

[@1johnquist]

@@kroms1443 greetings friend! Here's a brand new song from the same band. I trust you'll like it!! kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHfXg4uXqc-dZ9U

[@bucky3034]

It’s impossible not to nod my head every time I hear this song. Sometimes the simplicity of the drums/beat can be the most effective.

[@BrandonKJohnson]

Beautiful song!!! I KINDA wish all their songs sounded like this 👍

[@drumorrison7625]

Good choice. I love how they use baritone fenders and they kind of do not look like they sound. Not a gimmick at all, just cool.

[@jasey8134]

Two way mirror is one of those songs you wish you could hear for the first time

[@AdrHdz]

Brother you are on fire with these track/band selections! Great job and I love your enthusiasm and approach to the decomposition you do. You’re helping people become better listeners. That’s a wonderful thing to be doing for people.

[@kittyp330]

This song has been in my head for months, it's so beautiful and really stuck with me. I love watching you have the same reactions I had in being lost on the beauty.

[@maydaymayday4362]

It's a bit ironic, as the song itself as well as the slow motion groove in the video both give me vibes of the classic "Stuck on You" by Failure, which incidentally is about a song that burrows its way into the listener's head and they can't get it out.

[@thedutchdjentleman]

I’m still here. I’d recommend listening to Heavy Is The Head That Falls With The Weight Of A Thousand Thoughts. Their entire body of work is amazing though.

[@EskimoClownBoy]

Sleep Token and now Loathe??? Best reaction channel out there 🖤

[@brutalvocalcovers]

Oh wow! Loathe that’s sick! Very cool to see you reacting and decomposing these songs.

[@padraigmurphy3540]

Thornhill's "Where We Go When We Die" needs a breakdown. So many tempo changes, an absolute journey that song takes you on.

Just came over from your Loathe slow burn from yesterday. I had to see what your first experience of them was. This is a great tune. And this album has had a powerful impact on my song writing this past year. It's so awesome to see you get into them Geebz. Keep it up, man.

[@ShadyRonin]

this song is so beautiful. Still gives me a "feeling" every time. Amazing band.

[@el_mal_de_ojo]

"Is It Really You" would be ace! I remember exactly when I found out about them. I don't know how I discovered them, but I know I heard the album and immediately ordered the record on vinyl and booked a ticket to see them, which luckily was a week after I first heard it, In London. The gig was incredible, a small venue and they obliterated their set, one of the most energetic gigs I've been to, the crowd was nuts. This was weeks before Covid annihilated everything in the landscape, so it is almost fresh still in my memory.

[@videostartuts9342]

The way you break down the song really makes me appreciate the song more. Good work, you gained a new subscriber :)

[@brennanlundie8649]

I just discovered them last week and have listened to them every single day since. They've got variation to their sound and they do it damn well.

I wish I could tell Loathe, that according to my Spotify account I listened to this song more than any other song in 2022. I absolutely played their new album to death. And I’m still listening to it. I connected with Two-way Mirror immediately. I was born in 90 and I guess I have a bias for slow drums and guitars. Almost like it’s a metal song in slow motion. For me, that whole album stole the show in 2022 and I can’t wait for any new music from these dudes. Thanks for sharing your reaction! Cheers!

very excited to hear your opinion on this band! Loathe is one of my favorite bands in many years. Their sound typically leans on the heavier side, so this song is certainly a standout. I’d really recommend “Screaming” or the title track from this album, “I Let It In and It Took Everything”. Both songs are sonic journeys as well :-) much love Geebz!

Loathe are an incredible band, and I'm super glad you've discovered them on your journey! For something that's a bit more representative of their overall musical style and still keeps the ambience of this track, I'd suggest the closing track from the album this song is from (and the title track of the album): I Let It In And It Took Everything > kzbin.info/www/bejne/eXOTY4J_brxpj80

[@sludgeon]

YES, title track of ILIIAITE is my TOTY of 2020 along Humanity's Last Breath - Tide

[@DJENTISNTNOTAGENRE]

Totally agree with this. I'd say that title track and White Hot are the best representations of what Loathe does majority of the time.

[@nuggetpower]

You have such a great personality (:

[@jakeybball]

[@smidgee6542]

Love this song so much! In my opinion Screaming is the song on the album that best represents it as a whole and is a must listen

[@skoddskar3D]

Check out "is it Really You?" and/or the title track "I let it in and it took everything". Both are phenomenal slower melodic tracks like this one. Loathe is a great band, so glad to see them on your channel!

[@DoomsdayIsComing73]

Shoegaze, ArtRock, Noise Rock, Metal, Industrial Metal, New Wave. This band is killer, and incorporate so many different layers and styles! Impressed to see you do a breakdown on this group!

[@Chans_Den]

I’m still here! For other songs: “Is it Really You” has a very similar tone instrumentally with the delays an reverb but the vocalist shows off his range more. And there’s “Broken Vision Rhythm” or “Screaming”. Those fall more in line of the metal vibe. Personally my favs are Screaming and Is it really you.

[@donsenorcaballero8758]

I'm sure that those of us who listen to the songs that we recommend, listen to the song at least 3 times a day hahaha. I think what I love the most about this album is all the work behind it, it has many details that you can feel like a new experience to the ear

[@treykorte6984]

Glad you got to Loathe! They just released a fantastic ambient album (not rock/metal adjacent, just based on their atmosphere). Would love to see you break down something more typical of Loathe, such as Aggressive Evolution or Heavy is the Head that Falls with the Weight of a Thousand Thoughts. Thank you!

[@dooey9976]

Loving the videos Geebz, it’s great to see your take on the music and artists that I love, and even discover some new music along the way!

[@mebbin]

@@tylerbaars1173 appreciate the info!

[@Downstreamphoto]

I am not super familiar with Loathe, this song was pretty damn cool. It reminds me a bit of Thrice. If nobody has recommended Thrice they are great and have a similar feel, to me at least. I dont know if others would agree.

[@ifeelfantaastic2425]

This is a tamer song. Loathe slaps hard. Their latest album is pretty amazing if you're into screams and some wack pitch shifter effects on guitar. Thrice is legit!

[@Ennui.]

My usual way of describing Loathe is "if Deftones were permanently stuck in the 'Koi No Yokan' era" Which is a good thing ;)

[@theruleofthree]

Loathe is truly incredible. Great selection. Still want to see you do Karnivool’s “Sky Machine.” Ambiance, musicianship, ear candy, the whole package.
