Twelve foot ninja is BEYOND underrated. I show it to everyone I know that likes rock/metal. These guys are so talented and hilarious. It’s just a matter of time before these guys are on main stages. Sucks the bassist had to leave the band but they’re planning for a new album in 2021

Gotta love Mother Sky. I'd love to see it on this channel.

[@sighermike]

I feel like Coming for you or Sick are more diverse examples. These guys really remind me of a modern Mr Bungle.

[@jen.g.]

Love these guys! “Coming for You” is a more diverse song than this one (without the silly intro). These guys don’t take themselves too seriously with their videos, but are very serious in terms of their music. Since you love listening to new bands, it’s time for Leprous!

[@Motorzep]

It's absolutely time for Leprous!!

[@CatalystOfFire]

I keep posting Leprous links too lol

[@joeschmoe303]

Yes leprous! Distant bells, the sky is red, castaway angels, slave. All would be awesome!

If you like Leprous, give Rendezvous point a chance!

[@CatalystOfFire]

@@synnoven I directly gave them my money!! New album is incredible.

[@Easy_Skanking]

Stevic MacKay, one of their guitarists, uses a Line 6 Variax system so that he can simulate different guitar tunings in the same song. It is a modeler bases system and sounds great, as you just heard.

[@TheDiscrepator]

Yeah, actually the Shuriken Line 6 he uses is his signature guitar. He worked with Line 6 for that model. The sound even when it emulates an acustic guitar is reeeally awesome.

[@scraverX]

He even runs compound tuning on on parts of some songs so he doesn't have to move his hand from one end of the neck to the other. Technically clever stuff.

[@trottingfoxinc]

Twelve Foot Ninja is a really special band. Insanely unique combo of Karnivool + Faith No More + Tool + Reggae + Latin + who knows what else they're thinking of at any given time. Fun to listen to as well as having some of the best music videos in the game aside from MAYBE Mastodon. Who I just realized I don't think you've listened to...Look up some Mastodon soon! "Oblivion" "Asleep In The Deep" or "Steambreather" are good places to start!

[@coreymcnaught]

Never heard of them. That was awesome! Reminded me a bit of Faith No More and early Incubus with a dusting of djent on top.

[@jen.g.]

Their vocalist Kin wears his Patton influence on his sleeve.

[@jasonpicker2683]

Yep check out Coming for you and if you like that, you're set.

Extremophile Elite by Between the Buried and Me!

[@jonathankelley4041]

Anything by between the buried and me. Greatest band ever.

[@hackandslash873]

Seriously, there is not one bad song on their 2 albums or 2 EP's. Catchy as hell. Such a bummer the bassist has left. Kit has one of the best voices imo. Beneath the veneer of humour their lyrics explore areas of depth psychology and eastern mysticism. Deep awesome shit man.

[@nicholasstuart2357]

Can confirm, their live shows are some of the funniest gigs I've ever been to. If you want to continue to expand your Australian metal catalogue (12 foot, Karnivool) I'd highly recommend Northlane and for a composer their song 4D. Keep up the great content!

[@tkultra3501]

Also Polaris! Their new album is superb! I’d recommend “All of This Is Fleeting” or “The Descent”!

[@adam872]

Can confirm this. They're hilarious.

Between the Buried and Me “Ants in the Sky”. One of the most epic journey a song could take you on and from an extremely talented band.

Swim to the Moon is the epitome of BTBAM's compostitionship. I can't wait til concerts start back up. I had/have tickets to the "The Great Misdirect" anniversary tour, and that track in a live setting is the whole reason I bought them.

[@dominich.9745]

My favorite “ NEW” band in the last 10 years so eclectic and unique.Not a bad song in their entire catalog.

[@sethberry383]

Your reaction was EXACTLY like mine, haha! It's so great to see REAL musicians appreciating how very talented and diverse music can still be out there. I'm allergic to today's popular "creations" and have little respect for the simplicity and mundane repetition that is so richly rewarded by the masses. That being said, I have to constantly remind myself that 99% of consumers just don't hear music the same way that this guy, myself, and others do. We also agree on lyrical content. I could care less about the message if there's not a statement also made sonically. Good to know we're not extinct yet!

[@Hellknight27]

They are great musicians who don't take themselves seriously, and they don't let themselves get pigeonholed into any one genre. Their Aussie sense of humour also comes through in their music videos.

[@timdavis6091]

You must dig deeper into their catalog....As an old dude singer who has watched all of your reactions, I think you will dig some of their earlier stuff...Not that this is not unbelievably badass. Comin for You... or Shuriken... or Deluge...Dude I am so excited that you got to this band!!! I hate to be a 54 yr old fan boy, but I guess that is me...LOL

[@PanasonicTooth]

The first two EP's too are gold!

[@13flaws18]

One of my fav bands. You should also check out their tracks “shuriken” and “coming for you”. The guitarist has his own signature variax and uses custom tunings. That’s how they get those double octave changes

The fact that you said you hear the voice as another instrument, mainly. I’ve never in my life ever heard anyone say the same thing as me nor been able to relate to that. That just made me subscribe. Wish we could have a conversation sometime, I’m in music school currently at AIMM.

[@philbeaumont9339]

Always love your dissections, great reaction. Twelve Foot Ninja are, as you say, incredibly skilled and just daft as a bag of unicorn brushes. "Coming for you" is a great show of that eclectic genre switching that they're awesome at. Sick is my favourite just for that lush chorus and the Mr. Bungle style feel of the verses.

Oh man, looks like you've been busy ;) Twelve Foot Ninja are one of my favourite bands! Met em in person too, Stevic is one of the nicest dudes I've ever met. Plus their use of Variax guitars is what inspired me to get my own Shuriken (Stevic designed Variax)

[@claudemilot876]

Thank you soooooooooooo much for decomposing that song. It's amazing you did this. Twelve Foot Ninja needs so much more attention. Great to hear your input on that song because when you're too much of a fan (like me), we forget how complex and construct some songs can be. Next song to decompose A New Day from Karnivool. You want chicken skin ? You'll get it so much you're going be able to sand some wood with it !

[@samarkell785]

I'm SO GLAD you found/someone suggested this. I love Twelve Foot Ninja.

[@jrhodes1798]

This is one of my favorite bands! I love their mix of metal with so many fun genres. Great to see you vibe to them! Stevic, one of their guitarist, uses a Line 6 JTV pedal that switches tunings and outputs to sounds like different style of guitars. There's a short vid of him going through it you'd maybe enjoy. Love to see the content!

[@kyledavidson772]

Maybe my fastest sub ever. This guy rocks. He nailed TFN's demeanor by listening to only half of a song. And I love how we wasn't afraid to just let it play until he felt a grip on it. New fan.

[@ratmforthewin]

I first heard this band through my Spotify radio, on music related to Protest the Hero. This is is so far the only song I've heard from them, but considering it's a contender for my favorite song ever, I've been a bit scared to look into the rest of their stuff, as to not get disappointed. One absolute banger of a song, and a great breakdown by you, as always. I must say though; The direct link to the song on KZbin sends to a different song and band.

[@frogman86]

Haha amazing reaction, love always loved this track

[@RLKinMB]

One of my favorite ever bands! I love the irregularity and change of rhythm. They are always unexpected and they seem to 'get' the finer points of heavy metal and fusion. Love 'em, shout out from Canada!

[@interruptVEKTOR]

Love this band. They have so much silly and comedic content in their music, but also consistently create really rhythmically and harmonically interesting stuff. The chords during the chorus between the guitar and vocals+backing vocals are really unusual and interesting. Love that the vocalist lets those clear Mike Patton influences come through too.

[@paddyblack-exe]

Haha! I love 12 Foot Ninja. So glad you reviewed this video, and to see your appreciation for their style. Amazingly fun band, with such varied nuances and heavy hitting tracks. In my own opinion, it’s the most 12 foot ninja song they have, the best introduction song to discover the band. Really grows on you too. A couple other Australian suggestions, not so metal (but more raw, and somewhat offbeat like 12 Foot Ninja); The Drones - To Think That I Once Loved You; or Tropical Fuck Storm - Chameleon Paint. Both bands have the same singer, and vocals to rival Nick Cave.

[@mort4u]

I instantly fell in love with this band when i first listened to that song. Also the rest of their stuff is great, enjoy exploring.

[@jackmonaghan834]

Watched this video last night and ended up staying up until 4 just listening through their songs and adding to my playlist. One of my bands already, the fact that they aren’t much bigger shows everything wrong with the music world of today. Kin Etik (the singer) has a really interesting vocal style where he slides between notes rather than holding them still and it really fits well with the changes in key and melody they like to implement. You can hear so many different genres and influences within their style and sound, from Faith no more to Opeth etc. Their clean transitions remind me of System of a Down

[@sir_schweinehund4992]

Found you because of Tool. Will stay for Twelve Foot Ninja! They are always great! Good luck buddy.

[@ReverendRaff]

[@ragingstorm79]

These guys do what they want. They even released a cover of Huey Lewis' "Stuck With You" last year for the hell of it while in lockdown. They are even talented enough to convert their craziness to really tasteful, amazing acoustic sessions.

[@theexpensivechampagneguide]

amazing live band too! some of the best live sound you will ever hear

[@Rotscrek]

I really appreciate someone exploring genres they are not used to because it brings a fresh look to a song or an album. As someone who mostly listen to metal, some nuances get lost through sheer musical habit. I'd be really curious to see you try out Ulcerate, especially something out of the latest album, like Stare into Death and be Still. The craftmanship and atmosphere those guys bring to the table is otherwordly. Nice content as always btw, cheers
