They have a good mix of Power/Death Metal in their music. I can usually only listen to a couple Power Metal songs in a row (think Dragonforce) before I get bored. With the harsh vocals, this band keeps me focused. Which is a good thing. Basically, yes, I agree.

If you are starting to like Brittany’s voice, check out their cover of “Northwest Passage”. It’s a very popular Canadian folk song, and it does a great job in showcasing Brittany’s voice (both in a screaming/belting way and in a more mellow/controlled way). There are even a cappella parts that really let you listen to her!

[@VintageCars999]

Amazing! Some singers can't hold up to the produced music.

[@bchamp1]

I love how excited she gets. She's so expressive.

[@CromTuise]

I’ve read that Brittney has a choir/classical vocal background, and when the band started she made the decision to sing in a more classic 80s metal singer style, as opposed to the more common “female opera singer in a metal band” thing that is popular. This decision has made the diversity of sounds and textures in UtA’s music so great, and made them my favourite band ever, since they have all the things I like in music.

[@howdykate2776]

She sings like a male power metal singer does, but she has that high range. I love it

[@stephanpiotrowski1524]

This hits the nail on the head for why I really like them too. I've been trying to find female-led metal bands to get into and Unleash the Archers is the only one that hits it completely out of the ballpark. Other bands either sound like they just threw an opera singer into the studio (dozens of examples), instrumental complexity doesn't quite do it for my tastes (Semblant), or overall sound is too poppy (Amaranthe). This isn't hate on any of those bands, I enjoy listening to them all (Semblant comes the closest to hitting everything I'm looking for). But UtA just crushes it.

[@Kekoapono]

I offer another gentle request to react to Wintersun's song, "Sons of Winter and Stars." Not only is the song itself fantastic and a metal masterpiece, but it features very impressive vocals by the band's composer Jari Mäenpää. His vocals are even more impressive considering he's missing a quarter of one of his lungs due to a battle with tuberculosis earlier in his life. I also love his vocals because he never sings without the deep emotions that are tied to the lyrics he wrote. Jari's music is not only epic, but extremely emotional. Please, please, _please_ react to "Sons of Winter and Stars!"

Ever since I 'discovered' Nightwish and went down that creative rabbit hole that lead me to discover a whole wealth of simply beautiful stunning music and musical genres that at 52 years of age I've shamefully only now discovered and which in turn lead me to find young passionate charming and expertly informed young talents like yourself able to express and educate even old goons and geeks like me just how they do it and what makes them all so special. Thank you. Oh and I'm especially looking forward to this one. After the Finnish symphonic rockers this Canadian band has become a close 2nd favourite new band and this one is one of their best..

Grant is "that guy" - great growl vocals! Got to talk to him a while before a show and also a super nice guy too. :) Amazing that Brittany can pull it off through an entire concert set (saw them twice). BTW - "blast beats" are typically faster than I think you believe them to be, and are mostly in death metal.

[@jonaslindberg5482]

YES YES YES to Northwest Passage with Unleash the Archers. You will love it for sure 🤘😎🤘 Hugs from Sweden 🇸🇪💖

[@konantb8322]

Scott's car is named Panda because that's the name of his and Brittney's cat

[@indesignkat]

Yup, CowPanda

[@_Phillter]

Yay!! Glad to see more UTA on here! They deserve all the love we can give them. Awesome people, awesome music. The growls in the background are Grant I believe, the guy playing the red guitar. He usually does the dirty vocals for all their songs AFAIK. Also, big suggestion for "Nymphetamine Fix" by Cradle of Filth. I really wanna hear what you have to say about the Filth Whistle!!

[@cybercript2193]

It sounds like Helloween on steroids and Symphony X😁👌

[@brianware8934]

Did a bit of research and dug this up: “The video was filmed in the Nevada desert, using props from the Death Guild Thunderdome camp at Burning Man.”

[@gryzor]

This is awesome, I've been in that Thunderdome! :D Thanks for sharing the research.

[@robertmann8372]

Oh dear God, this is gonna be such a sweet reaction. I bet she’ll look at more Brittney Slayes after this! So good. Also, as a Canadian, this brings me literally a ton of joy. UTA is awesome!

[@davidvishloff6383]

As a fellow canadian, I agree wholeheartedly.

[@xy9891]

As an American, I completely agree!

[@mikerearic6534]

I have been watching your videos for a while now, but i just wanted to say i love the positive vibes from your videos and your reactions to the songs.

[@enriquefux292]

So much talent in Metal !!

[@Modnar621]

Epica - Rivers! It’s a new song and you need to hear more of Simone Simons. Her voice is so pretty.

[@RealRuler2112]

I keep suggesting Cry for the Moon, but never get enough upvotes to be noticed. =(

[@matteogiberti3297]

Epica - Tides of Time also, but There are so many live versions... hard to chose one...

[@omegaman420]

A friend of mine named RJ his cousin used to be the bassist in Unleash The Archers. They are from Victoria, but live in Vancouver now.

[@drsavage3262]

Gahhh!! I just love you, all your enthusiasm and willingness to branch out of your norm is so inspiring and refreshing. I know you've had other harsh/metal vocalists on your channel and a ton of reactions to different genres, I'm just so intrigued by your appreciation and breakdowns of all the content on your channel. You're a certified badass! Not to mention that your voice is mesmerizing and listening to you live gives me goosebumps every single time.. you're legit 💯

[@robertgephart5954]

Elizabeth, I am so glad I stumbled across your channel a few weeks ago. You are such a nerd and I love you so much for it.... your channel has become my after work wind down go to. I absolutely love your reactions to the music and videos. Your breakdowns of the videos and music have already taught me a lot that I didn't know or think of... It also blows me away with your enthusiasm with the style of music I love... PLEASE keep the videos coming.... and thank you for what you do... P.S. I have your chair.... I to am a nerd and spend a lot of time gaming... excellent chair for the long grinds and dungeons.

[@jaimemolina3825]

Finally! I told you about a song that she covered in a karaoke bar, after a concert... Is amazing, you should watch it!!

[@PlugInKali]

Everybody starts with Awakening and don't get me wrong, I love that song, but Tonight We Ride showcases Brittney's vocal abilities MUCH better :)

[@jeffn4836]

Awakening is just a great showcase for the WHOLE band. It’s simply about the musicianship. It’s a great intro to the band as a whole and then down the Brittney rabbit hole we go.

[@zenutopia2k708]

Great band/vocals/video. Great fun watching you react throughout the video! 😎 Liked & Subscribed.

[@jamesb120]

So glad you came back the UTA. They are my favorite band

[@samdavidowicz]

She did an Opera duet with Lords of the Trident.... you should that one out as well.

[@LordJoe115]

You should check out Brittney Slayes - Queen of the Reich Karaoke - Edinburgh. It was after one of their shows and she had been drinking!

[@missmaita]

I never describe myself as a metal fan, but then bands like this happen. 😊. My brain always goes back to the first time I ever heard a female lead metal band - Lacuna Coil. That would be another nifty band to see her react to.

[@bradleyegel2713]

I was waiting so long for you to get back to UTA!! Yeah...Love your channel. I don't often comment but I watch nearly every one of your reactions!

[@tatelax0869]

Well, I was just blown away by Spiritbox - Blessed be (live on Sirius XM). You should definitely check that out soon! On another note excited for this reaction. Great song!

[@PnlBtr]

This is an awesome song. Looking forward to this one.

[@attilatheone3406]

Yess, yes, YES! I was just about to comment that this needed to happen!!!

[@mamof86]

It's always so much fun watching your reactions. I love that you pointed out how annoying costumes can be at times and doing the video with them had to be both fun and frustrating the whole time. Would love to see you react to Metal Opera Battles #4 with Brittney. It really highlights what an amazing voice she has and looks like they had so much fun doing it.

[@raistnox]

Still think you would love her and the singer from lords of the trident singing brindisi. 2 power metal singers outright slaying opera.

[@michaeldavid3000]

So glad that you reacted to UtA again.. and loved how you reacted .. You should check out her singing brindisi with the dude from Lords of the trident.. you will be amazed again :) .. tc n be safe

[@TheCharismaticVoice]

Celebrate with us in our 250K party LIVE for a chance to win free prizes! We’ll be streaming the event on KZbin THIS FRIDAY, February 26 at noon Arizona time.

[@koryhelm8515]

You need to react to Brittney singing Brindisi!

[@shaunwatson6665]

Have a listen elize ryd from amaranthe

[@toddstevens13]

Her entrance, damn, almost as good as yours at that convention you went to and the guy checking out the guitars asked you to sit in, and you blew the damn roof off the place, and a hand instantly showed up to pull the mic back after you let it loose. Even better was your ooopps not used to having a microphone, sorry.

[@ihurtmyi90]

If you like all those do you play elder scrolls or wow?
