people reacting to the scream in Ptolemaea by Ethel Cain (compilation)

i reacted the same way lol

[@xcxarca]

literally ascended to heaven when i first heard that.. so is ethel

[@jamesdavid6985]

JAIL 😭

[@TH3ENDISH3RE]

you're evil for this

The power of ethelfication

Ctfuuuuu

[@cass_thestay]

most of the men being terrified and the women looking like proud moms😭😭

[@ovtheabyss84]

I listen to a lot of extreme metal so I’m used to screaming but her scream is another world. This album made me cry. I sobbed.

[@umjustash]

same I get chills from both and that says something. girl is on another level

[@kristofkodok]

Because it's honestly, not a metal scream. It's a scream of pain and agony. So deep I feel it trough my chest.

[@thehermionegrangerr]

Right? I love metal, but that was not a metal scream, that was on a whole entire different level

[@heathert.4727]

I found this song after being sexually assaulted and that part hit the core of my soul and I just sobbed. This whole song is such a masterpiece and every moment resonated with me.

[@redwolftrash]

ditto

[@alexthebudgie9071]

same. i found it today. almsot a year to the day i was s/a- ed for the last time (for now)/s/a ed for the first time by my (ex) boyfriend. god it broke me but the chills and the emotion i felt in that moment. it’s going on my playlist of songs to smoke to

[@Megan-ir3ze]

I hope you’re healing ❤️‍🩹 I’m so sorry

[@solarbeanz]

I hope you're doing well too, stranger. I wish healing toward you and everyone in this comment thread. Trigger warning , I am also trauma dumping: I found the song randomly listening to the dj thing on Spotify I think during the Spring, but I saved it and never listened again. Only a couple weeks ago during one of my breakdown episodes thinking about past trauma, I refound the song and that part got me. I couldn't even say stop when IT happened, but that scream in the song is just.. it's just how my brain has been, genuinely lol. This song has been on repeat for a couple weeks now. I'm doing (not) great lol. I gotta listen to this whole album now.

[@ac1dch3rry]

im so sorry for that , hope you're healing from it and doing well take care of yourself :) ❤️

[@willowshaffer7410]

The first time I heard it, I actually got full body chills. Like, the hair on the back of my neck stood up

[@flohohneh94]

Me too! I’ve never had such an intense experience with a song before and I’ve listened to a lot of dark stuff.

[@willowshaffer7410]

@@flohohneh94 if you're interested, I will gladly take a list of other dark music/stuff I should check out

[@asdfghjk1576]

The scream feels more cathartic to me when compared to the rest of the song. It’s like the one time she expresses the true horror she feels about the assault. Her softly pleading for it to stop was the hardest part of the song to get through.

[@nuyabeez]

For me the hardest part is the flies buzzing. I have to skip it every time it is so unnerving.

[@Iscreameveryday]

The scream is supposed to be Hayden’s character, Ethel, being canabalized by the man who she rode around with in the west in his truck, and her telling him to stop.

[@hkazu63]

I will never forget first hearing that moment honestly. I was literally lying on my bed, passive listening experience first, just drifting, reading a book. The lights were dim. And then it hits and I am SWALLOWED. I am DROWNING in the sound. It was like a whole ass awakening. Amazing.

[@whitenobeard]

The way almost none of the guys saw the buildup to the scream and got caught off guard by it is crazy.

[@backseatbambi]

I was listening to a Spotify radio while taking a nap and woke up to her screaming during this part and immediately hearted the song

[@alpha8here]

ah, mood

[@sage2.2.2]

i feel like the way men & women hear it is an amazing way to see how differently we are treated, the men are surprised & seemingly disgusted by it while the women feel a sense of calm w it, they almost expect it in a way, they feel the build up to it

[@jackickingandsobbing1742]

Love how they all just go from 😟 to 😱

[@Esmeyippie]

The difference between Masc and Fem aligned people's reactions where the masc aligned people tend to be completely surprised the fem aligned people while still shocked seem to understand what it's supposed to represent a lot quicker.

[@georgiagray953]

Cried my heart out the first time I heard this song. Truly a masterpiece

[@ttw4s]

best part of the album

The men’s reactions are hilarious! This is in the head and voice of every woman! We just tend to reserve it until we decide otherwise.

[@1-800-fvck-off]

when i first listened to it i remember just not reacting the whole time but i did feel a lot i felt more uneasy at the start of the song but i was looking forward to the scream since i’ve heard abt it on tiktok it felt satisfying to listen to the first time and it still does every time i listen to it the scream feels like se está desahogando idk how to express that in english but i’m proud of her for letting go of that pain through the scream

​@@othergeorgeayeah,they're reacting to this underrated artists song which features a woman saying to stop the rapper from rapping her and then in the last "stop" she scrreched her voice and screamed।।।।।।।।।।।।।।।। why did they have to act that zesty way, they're probably naturally like that। there is nothing wrong with being zesty but i am just a curious mf।
