ROADIE REACTIONS | "Orbit Culture - Open Eye"

[@patfix]

This band man. Since I discovered them every day is neck day.

[@DBogerdTV]

hell yeah! same here!

[@normalman657]

Same haha

[@rocioiribe5841]

Haha yea esp in my car while driving

[@aethyrien]

Been watching orbit culture reactions all day and this has to be my fav comment ha

[@cadehollis2476]

This comment wins 😂

[@adamtaylor9617]

1. Album of the year.. hands down. ( And I'm a massive nightwish fan) 2. There has never been a real threat to metallica other than testament, and these guys are basically what metallica should be, with a real drummer and real aggression.

[@SwedeSpeeder]

Metallica's days are over. I've been a fan of theirs since I was 14 years old (I'm 50). Orbit culture is superior in every way. Time for Lars to retire and disappear.

[@ricknesar1627]

@@SwedeSpeeder pretty much the same for me brother! For me Metallica was, Kill Em All.-And Justice For All..

[@daverichards9141]

Christopher is a beast.

[@LionheartSJZ]

Tank: "I'm gonna pay attention to the drums for the rest of the video" Also Tank, 10 seconds later: Bangs head for the rest of the video 😂

[@TankTheTech]

Can’t help it. Hahahaha

[@cliff_garcia4229]

@@TankTheTech dude its fun to just rock out

[@the_gpatch6933]

Windmill head banging at that too 🤣🤘

[@PCFixer]

Try not to Head Bang Challenge: FAILED!

[@najikhalil6632]

I just don't get it... How come they don't have millions and even billions of views and fans This band is from another universe

[@cardestam]

I'm 62 and now you got me into METAL...still love Stones but this really makes me going. Thanks brother Tank 😊

[@chilly2go]

So glad you saved a few for reactions and especially this song! Orbit Culture is one of the best bands I've discovered this year. This song, like many others, is perfect for the gym. Thank you Sweden for yet another incredible band!

[@progperljungman8218]

Our pleasure! 😁

[@GeeManFinn]

I also get a lot of Chuck Billy in his voice too with the added aggression.

[@TankTheTech]

Yes!

[@greekazoid_8325]

Every song by this band is a banger! They have quickly become a favorite. 🤘🤘

[@everett880]

Couldn't join the livechat for some reason my chatbox kept loading but the video worked fine. Redfog is another turbo neck-breaking banger of a song from their second EP, since I think you've heard most of the tracks off of Nija.

[@Nappa9000]

This was the first song I ever heard from Orbit Culture, and they absolutely BLEW me away. For as many plays as I have on some other records this year (Beneath The Massacre, Cytotoxin, etc.), this album quickly became my #1. The whole album, and this song, are killer! I also appreciate the facts that you add in the video every now and then. Good video!

[@27Colombia]

Great reaction! I also recommend listening to "Automata" "The Newborn One" and my favourite song "The Haste to the Pyre". I discovered Orbit Culture this year and they've become one of my favourite bands which I listen almost daily to.

[@tinygaragefab]

That artwork in the background (bottom right) has my truck in it!! 1957 Chevy FTW!! Great video man, this band kills it!

[@denouncedmusic]

Yaaaas!!! Finally bro. Im glad you are digging this band as much as I am. I hope North star of nija and Nensha are the other 2 from the list. Cant wait for the next one!

[@Elessar_py]

So so happy to see you do a reaction of this song. I suggested it in Discord and was hoping you hadn't listened to it because I really wanted to see your reaction. As always, it didn't disappoint, thanks!

[@KellyLwisher]

This is the best band I've discovered in at least the last few years, their catalogue is consistently fantastic! The most recent album that came out this year is also a complete banger!

[@budhenry426]

Never heard of em, gonna have to check em out. Kickass.

[@cellmetal8]

Evergrey is another absolutely kickass band from Sweden, and they have Floor in quite a lot of their songs... In Orbit is just a beautiful duet song from them, highly recommend it!

[@dennislindqvist8443]

I think you also would like Lost Society. Two of my favorites are "Trash all over you" and "Hangover Activator". A newer version of old school trash, they were really young in these videos.

[@jessiegarcia9410]

I discovered this band a month ago and have been obsessed ever since. “Open Eye” is definitely one of my favorite songs by them.

[@joakimlind3424]

Not only is our country proud but also our hometown. Eksjö represent! Make sure you look at the videos before this on in the right order seeing it's a trilogy of songs with a story. So "Nensha" then "Rebirth" then "The Shadowing". You should make ONE video covering the whole trilogy :P And save the live recording of "North star of Nija" for another video :D

[@Malekath1]

Damn this is sick as hell they got a new fan in me now to, Thanks tank! love the channel man \m/

[@tannerravsten7189]

Thank you so much for reacting to them again! Since I saw your first Orbit Culture video, they have become my favorite band. 🤘

[@Kirby915]

I have three of their albums, Rasen, Redfog, and Nija. These days I pretty much just put them all on shuffle and rock out doing homework and when I drive around. I can't listen to anything else lately.

[@daverichards9141]

Just saw them in concert and even had the privilege of meeting them. These guys are top tier and are nothing but humble to their fans. The only problem with them is that they don't get enough recognition.

[@ImDembe]

Ohh love that you have In Flames in the background, my fav song of them to! Orbit Culture sparked something for me, i don't listen to this kind of stuff usually but i try to stay open for all kinds of rock/metal, im not that old but my main music is 70s rock and 80s metal.

[@chrisscott820]

Yes!! So excited!

[@thezar79]

Oh yeah, I had the same thought at the beginning, i was like "is this James singing?", great band, great vocals, excellent choice Tank.

[@maybeiamdan]

This intro is simply unexpectedly merciless. Thanks again for featuring an underground (at least for me totally unknown) band! P.s. Cellar Darling. Not giving up yet!

[@VickThor84]

It takes serious will power to abstain from seeing their videos dude! Badass reaction!!! 🤘🤘🤘

[@shinokugt]

It would be amazing to see you react to "The Shadowing" (especially the live version in studio) if you haven't seen/heard it already!

[@TankTheTech]

Live in Studio? I’m there. That’s one of the songs I saved and haven’t listened to yet.

[@johnnylemon9610]

@@TankTheTech theres also a live in studio version off the first track off nija, at the front.

[@shinokugt]

@@TankTheTech This made my day - couldn't be more excited for you, and to get to vicariously watch your trip through it. It's an experience.

[@armandthevagabond8641]

@@TankTheTech Went back and watched your OC reactions, what happened here, haha. For me, The Shadowing is neck and neck with Saw for top tier.

[@makkis80]

Thank you, this was amazing!

[@ojcorzog]

Ooooohhhh man what an intro, It was like 10 punches in the face in one second 😂 Also, great Reaction!

[@deblinedrifter]

Imagine just the insane wall of death that forms at something like Wacken when that intro hits... Added this right after this! Loved Saw, and waited till you did another vid to add another. Went and also added Mirrorslave which is sooo good!

[@yrrtum]

This song Amps me up so hard, I sometimes have no idea where to loose that energy that built up inside me...

[@johnrodriguez7992]

I just listened to this album in its entirety, twice, while at work. I love these guys

[@IvanaMedovka]

To add more Swedish metal goodness, how about Gothenburg's dark melodic/prog/power metal masters Evergrey? 😊 I can recomend Weightless, King Of Errors or if you want featuring of a familiar face - In Orbit ft. Floor Jansen 😀

[@matteobava7119]

2:25 moth in Flame by metallica!!!! 😂😂😂😂 And you told the Same after few seconds, this Is the difect to comment before the end 😂😂😂

[@Captain_Golfdepp]

Thank you for showing manny of different band. I just found a new song for my playlist 🤘

[@KillerwhaleTRX]

If you missed it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/i3iTlImfrNGhp5o Bonus track.....and also, they are cool with doin some live stream intervue stuff......

[@geyer1974]

Great background track from in flames, cloud connected… 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@ultimatedodger4247]

Aha! Was wondering when you'd get back to them but you did mention you've been listening to them off of reaction videos. Nija is easily on my top tier list. Looking forward to see them live too when this covid mayhem is over.

[@normalman657]

You just need to react for Orbit Cultyre - North Star Of Nija (Live in studio)! Aslo I was waiting for your new reaction for this my favorite band! Can't waight for another one to head bang together! Hahaha, ROCK IT. Also Orbit Culture will play on virtual festival MaggotFest for free. November 13 at 12pm LA!

[@digibreakthe1st12]

One word for u sir Wargblod by Orbit Culture is bonus track on the new album you will love it...epic video keep up the great work

[@stups9975]

This band is just so amazing. It’s hard to even pick my favorite song. But I listen to their new album the most ... This song just gets me hyped ... these guys and Amon Amarth are perfect to listen to at the gym. 🤟🏻

[@gabrielhunter1531]

I've been waiting for this reaction, so enjoyed your Saw one, about to watch now, please be good 🤞🤟💣💥🎸🎤

[@Jenza82]

And Tank discovers another band for me. Thanks, Tank! I'm swedish ... No clue how I've missed this.

[@damiengrief]

My favorite music discovery of 2020. Love these guys so much. Their new album is easily my AOTY.

[@iplaybass6690]

I love how dingwall basses don't get lost in the mix, you can still hear it through all this...I feel like I need one

[@mathewlombardo3876]

So i know you've already done a few of their songs now, but i reallllllyyy think you should do a reaction to their "North star of Nija" live studio session video. You'll get a great look at their setup and there's definitely alot of audio production involved too(also it's a hard fucking core track) Please consider!!!

[@VickThor84]

O couldn't agree more dude!!! 🤘🤘🤘

[@Desekratedd]

Their new drummer is a powerhouse

[@lilithrose8048]

Orbit Culture became my favorite band the second I heard them, really excited for this one!

[@spencerbrase]

This song, and the whole album are amazing. I have been listening to the whole album nonstop.

[@tomster_6274]

Interesting, In Flames and Soilwork are backing bands for the beginning and end of the video, loving it 🤘

[@rocioiribe5841]

I finally tracked a physical copy of this cd at a local music store. HAD TO HAVE IT. First time i played it start to finish in my car while driving i went "wow wow wow holy shit! Wow" the last 3 songs esp along with instrumental ending got me all teary eyed in the feels. This is battling UTA for my fav album of the year.

[@Hjcostahel]

Excelent reaction to an awesome band!! I've become fan since discovered OC. Hell yeahhh

[@Schnygg2]

Hey man! love your channel, if you like swedish melodic death metal you should check out scar symmetry - The Anomaly // Morphogenesis // The illusionist. Just to name a few, keep up the great work! love from sweden

[@michaelmontesvo]

10:09 I'm gonna cry... SOMEONE ELSE mentioned Dark Tranquillity! I've been preaching the good word for YEARS! You misspelled it, BTW. It's 2 "l"s not 1. I still forgive you because YOU KNOW! You know how good they are!

[@TankTheTech]

Yeah, sometimes when I’m editing super late at night, spelling mistakes are bound to happen. Hahaha. But yeah man, love that band!

[@Island_Gecho96]

Ive had North Star of Nija on my spotify just sitting around... I am so not worthy after listening to this. Love the notes that you put on the videos!

[@TheDjentleman77]

Yes! I was waiting for this one! 🤘🏻🤘🏻 They have two awesome live studio videos that I strongly recommend. And also, Disobey by Crystal Lake 😉

[@nodrilltoday]

Best album of a decade in my opinion ❤️

[@captainmorgan1015]

Glad you finally listened to this song, great song, great band. Shout out to all my veteran brothers and sister out there

[@captainmorgan1015]

I know music is a thing with all veterans whether is rap, hip hop or metal. We just need something to survive and get through the day no matter what we are going through

[@joshuacanipe7688]

I'm hearing a mix of Hetfield and Chuck Billy of Testament in those clean vocals.

[@peter0511]

Love your channel bro, i know alot of the bands and numbers you are reacting too. but MAN you introduced me to some damn nice toons for my ears :D This is just killa! damn i love it :D, together with the introduction to Ancient Bards :P .. rly loving to get new heavy music to listen to :) You mention that Orbit Culture sounds like Metallica, i kinda agree, listen to a few more songs and it rly sounds like a mix of metallica and in flames but tbh better.. :D THANKS for sharing and keep them comming :D

[@TankTheTech]

🤘🤘🤘

[@peranberggren]

Yeeeeeees!! 🤘💪🤘 Awesome reaction!! This album is 10/10 and my favorit album ever Made 🤘

[@4ytcomment]

What happened to my "head snapping off" comment?? I wasn't trolling, just commenting on the balls out intensity of your headbanging, specifically at 7:03! It's awesome!

[@TankTheTech]

No idea. I RARELY delete comments unless their racist, homophobic, or something like that, and I know what comment you're talking about. I wouldn't have taken that down.

[@NiklasMX]

Orbit Culture is for me one of the best bands in the fucking world nowadays! AMAZING!

[@davidthomson953]

that intro.... HOW DID I NOT KNOW ABOUT THESE GUYS!

[@TheHookBoy]

Do you also hear a little Sully Erna in his voice when he’s not growling? When I first started listening to them, it was obvious he was inspired by James; but then I also started catching parts that sounded like Sully. Both are amazing so that’s not a bad thing.

[@bashiel]

Completely agree on rather listening to this than Metallica!

[@petter5721]

Opeth is another awesome Swedish band, they are from my home town 🤘🏻

[@Mark_-jq6wg]

My neck is fubar after watching this, so worth it !!!

[@juliettemcgee9055]

Hey Tank! Can't join the live premiere these days because of work but congrats on 39k! Nija is easily S tier album, been listening to Day of the Cloud on repeat. I know you've heard Nensha, you should go for the other 2 tracks in its trilogy Rebirth and The Shadowing. Shout out to In Flames in the background 🙌

[@TankTheTech]

All good! You don’t ALWAYS need to be here. 😎

[@andrewjessup6951]

Best Band Ever!

[@dissonancy9762]

Completely agree with you on the Metallica-thing (even though my love for metal started with Metallica (and Iron Maiden and Entombed). And I can't imagine Lars Ulrich doing this much work this accurately on drums. This is absolutely brutal, and the more melodic parts actually make the brutal parts even more impactful. Also, they're giving my neck a break instead of breaking my neck.

[@Blighthammer]

Me: Can you roundhouse kick someone with a song? Orbit Culture: Hold my beer.

[@Maud_914]

Great reaction. Do not forget skalmold with the icelandic orchestra kvaoning thx :)

[@SpitFireShad]

And YES to thrashier and they’re And Justice for All on an all day binge of

[@progperljungman8218]

So true for me too: Orbit Culture is simply much more to my liking than Metallica 😊

[@Dropkickdejv]

You want swedish? I'll give you swedish. Either Meshuggah - Bleed / Clockworks drum cams or Vildhjarta - Den helige anden / Dagger. You won't be dissapointed! Great reactions by the way, unbiased and open :)

WHAT?! YOU DISRESPECT THE ST ANGER SNARE LIKE THAT?! 😂

[@perrymc2243]

Dude.. I'm 50 and grew up listening to Metallica. I'm right there with you on, listening to them over Metallica. I've always loved the Mets. But, I love super heavy more. Edit: The keyboards and sampling in this song gives me a strong Fear Factory vibe. I credit FF for my love of hardcore metal

[@chriswicecarver3715]

@TankTheTech ~ Thanks for this review. I think I heard a previous review of Orbit Culture and I liked it so I wanted to see this one. Good stuff. ------- In regard to your comment about this versus Metallica, I think (for me) it purely depends on WHICH Metallica we're talking about. If we go Kill 'em All, Master of Puppets, and Ride the Lightning...yes, it would be almost blasphemous to put anything above that. But after Ride...Metallica is still good, but it's considerably less so. ----------------------- Gonna use this post to ask you to review something from Nailbomb. Know I've asked a few times and I do remember you saying you'd check it out, but I'm just plugging it again. Nailbomb was a 1 time thing and it was some of the very best stuff. So, I'm excited/eager to see/hear you review it for gear, performance, and sound. Have a good weekend!!

[@drneildurrant]

Hey Tank... yep. Early James, Seek and Destroy type vibe.

[@plshredder]

I finally figured out what I'm hearing: to me this sounds like Fear Factory's Demanufacture album brought into the Gothenburg scene of the late '90s early 2000's, particularly Dimension Zero and later on Jesper's later band The Resistance. Thank you Tank (and Tank subs) for introducing me to this band!

[@TankTheTech]

That is an excellent comparison, honestly.

[@christophergilchrist3657]

You might want to take a look at this band, not heavy but very energetic with a special guest. EVERGREY - In Orbit (feat. Floor Jansen)

[@hollowman7669]

Tank, you must try Obsessed from the older Rasen album!! No official video but,,, who cares if the song obsesses you 🤘🤘 The riff is pure magic😂

[@herzenskoenig1982]

Another awesome Viking/Powermetal Band of Sweden is "Brothers of Metal" 🤘😎

[@FaresX2023]

100% true ! They're ways kickass compared to Metallica with drummer that use the same fills since the 80's and same riffs. They're absolute brutal banger band to make your day ways badass. Nice reaction, very chill and I enjoy it watching your vids as always.

[@tazjew]

2:40 literally me when i first heard his cleans lmao TankTheTech

[@Drupyog]

Another band you might not know, and I'm pretty sure you'll enjoy, is Melechesh. They are originally from Israel but emigrated to the Netherland, and they write the most ridiculous riffage I've ever heard. I recommend the song "Multiple Truth".

[@Soloeagle54]

My favorite band! If you have the chance, check out the bonus song from this album called Wargblod. This song absolutely slays man

Great reaction as usual. Hey Tank, maybe is the moment to do more EPICA. Unleashed(retrospect live), with Orchestra and choir, and some pyro.Only sing Simone in this song. Maybe my number one song in symphonic metal.
