Vocal Coach reacts to (and is terrified by) SKYND - Richard Ramirez

[@kcrich1310]

If you're gonna react to SKYND you gotta do Tyler Hadly and Jim Jones. More vocal range on those songs...........

[@Andy_from_de]

Of those, Jim Jones. It is very good but visually not as demanding

[@AshokaMazda]

@@Andy_from_de I agree.

[@chuckiebobphil]

True Jim Jones has the best vocals

[@totallyanonymousbish9599]

Yes! Jim Jones!

[@IllustriousCrocoduck]

Chris Watts is a new ballad. Lots of cleans.

[@Andy_from_de]

So glad you got to discover Skynd. This isn't the video I would recommend for a first time discovery, Skynd do have videos that are a bit easier to digest. But you held yourself like a pro and saw the amazing vocalist behind the enigma of the mask!

[@James-lr3xg]

what would you recommend from them?

[@Andy_from_de]

@@James-lr3xg if you want to avoid the gory visuals, Jim Jones, Eliza Lam, Michelle Carter and maybe Columbine. All are of course still very intense due to the topic, but not as "bloody" as Ramirez or the other songs released so far.

[@cannarun]

@@James-lr3xg Man) There are too few of them to choose. Check out EVERY! Straight in order, and you can not necessarily at the same time

[@cannarun]

@@Andy_from_de I think this is definitely no worse than starting with Gary Heidnik, as most do And this one is one of my favorites

[@schelin1447]

This band supported BABYMETAL on their tour in 2019...I love that. SKYND represent the darkest of human kind and BABYMETAL the opposite!

[@katharinaeddins499]

Yes, that's exactly how I first discovered them and it fit together SO well, really impressive :)

[@denisk9880]

Да Skynd и BabyMetal отличные группы.

[@portiadavenport9866]

Her make up in this production is on point...its actually the sound wave for a scream :) You may notice that in almost all her videos there are 3 characters I interpret them as 1)the observer 2) the demon and 3) Angel of Death...could be wrong but that's my take

[@AshokaMazda]

Glad you mentioned the Soundwave of the scream as I was going to do so myself. When I learned of that I thought it was an amazing sort of Easter egg. It's actually my favorite makeup on her to date.

[@Juleru]

Father is always just an observer but she always takes a different role. In "Katherine Knight" she actually gave Katherine the knife, while in others she's just whispering in the main character's ear or is simply there in the end.

[@QuikVidGuy]

it also represents how Ramirez never brushed his FUCKING teeth

[@6Haunted-Days]

@@QuikVidGuyyea that’s not anything to do with it 🙄 Also he was a drug addict that’s WHY his teeth rotted, and in the awesome US of A most don’t have dental insurance without that good luck keeping your teeth.

[@QuikVidGuy]

I haven't listened to all her songs, but the few that I have in my library meant that when I listened to this one, I was surprised that her voice sounds unfiltered, no pitch-shifting, no distortion, I wondered why this one was so raw

[@Blood_Puppet]

The mask was based off a quote from Ramirez as he was being lead from the court after his death sentencing I beleive, "Big deal. Death always came with the territory. See you in Disneyland."

[@QuikVidGuy]

I think See you in Disneyland were his last words, or close to it

[@adamFIVE88]

7:13 that is her singing, they just pitched it and added effects, she sings that part live

[@srslywtfcl4p404]

I saw these guys open for babymetal right before the whole corona thing kicked off. Had never heard of them before, but turned out to be my most amazing live show experience ever.

[@HarryToeface]

I'm so jealous

[@Andy_from_de]

Here is good live clip of Skynd performing Katherine Knight and Columbine. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n6u5dYKPns1kirM

[@NneonNTJ]

Yep same, i saw them in Belgium, as good as it was though Babymetal was of a different caliber! :O

[@AshokaMazda]

I'm SO JEALOUS right now! That had to be amazing! I even read that she learns how to say the lyrics backwards and sings them that way (when they do that in their songs)

[@p4r4sit32]

Great reaction!! I suggest reacting to videos of her sing and perform live so that you can REALLY hear her real voice! With and without the vocals, her voice is breathtaking. 🖤

[@allietheparanormaladventurer]

I love them. Their cinematography and conception is so amazing. And she has a great voice. Please keep checking them out. The most unique musical act out there.

[@JW-28]

Facts. I wish they dropped more music and toured in the US. I dont think they come to the US.

[@JW-28]

"Im concerned for her" 😂😂 i died

[@Samurai_Stoner]

So did Jenny 😂

[@stephensummers643]

So cool you checked this band out. Love the uniqueness of them. Probably my favorite track from them is Elisa Lam, definitely worth checking out.

[@eleanorthiessen4211]

Skynd is stunning!!! Her voice is so powerful 🖤

[@ultrazineSWE]

Skynd ❤️🔥 And Skynd dont wanna people to know how she is so we keep it like that

[@xxMaro92xx]

This is the first video I've seen of you (because I'm a fan of SKYND and youtube recommended it), and I think you're really adorable and that this video was really cool :D

[@AzDesertFoxx]

I just discovered SKYND (through you!) and I have fallen in love!!

[@dougel4709]

Same here! Just now! And I am strangely intrigued...

[@AzDesertFoxx]

Check out "Jim Jones", Tyler Hadley, and, well, all of them! They are great!

[@Polyphemus89]

Her makeup is genius, it’s like a modern take on a pulcinella, the forebear of the modern clown, and more importantly, mime. She keeps saying “just be quiet” it’s really genius.

[@goonbob27]

Glad you did some research before diving in, it might be scary for you but they’re amazing in what they do. I’d love to see you react to more.

[@AshokaMazda]

Love the review and hope you do more of these from them. She has such an amazing voice!

[@stuff1221]

I love skynd it's cool to see someone watching it

[@bigboycombo6342]

I remember when they caught the "Night Stalker", group of people beat the hell out of him and called the police. Good day!

[@jasonedmunds5821]

Oddly this showed up in my my feed the day after seeing them perform live at Mama Roux's in Birmingham. Been following them for ages now and absolutely love them, their sound is phenomenal and I can say they pull it off on stage with ease. Her voice is staggeringly powerful live and the show was well worth it. Hope delve deeper into their rabbit hole.

[@soulmare333]

I remember watching this over a year ago but I wanted to come back and say you should react to Edward Kemper. A lot more of just her voice and much more range. I heard it the other day even though it's been out for a while and for some reason I remembered this video and wanted to, when I had the time, recommend it.

[@schizoidman40k]

The cutest reaction ever! jaja

[@kcrich1310]

Cute?!?!? Better get a warrant and search this guy's house. Might be something buried under the floorboards......... j/k

[@rofyle]

One of the most popular podcasts on iTunes is a podcast called "Sword and Scale." It's a true crime podcast that not only tells the true and tragic stories of horrific crimes, but also plays the actual 911 calls, as well as interviews with the killers. They have several episodes that explore the minds of sociopaths and the rise in prevalence of sociopathy and psychopathy today. Sociopathy is a lot more common than some people might imagine, and the rate of it is growing every year.

hi Beth you should listen skynd michelle carter and other songs some are catchy as hell

[@NneonNTJ]

"more neon please" You called?

[@Archereon]

I know this is an older video, but there is a skynd doll in their merchandise store

[@Quest4Horror]

All of their songs are beautifully dark.

[@jeffvader9960]

Yes he was a serial killer and the lyric "hell il see you in disney land" comes from his sentencing. As the police where waling him out of court to the transport reporter's kept asked him how he felt about reciving death sentence or something like that he replied with "big deal deal death always went with the territory! il see you in Disney Land!"

[@drew65sep]

Don't really care for the subject matter...but, it IS a brilliant marketing strategy. People are always intrigued by what terrifies them. Instrumentals are great, and the vocals complimentary. I also have to admit that I've got a few of their songs on a playlist.

[@kornfreak1100]

Chris watts shows her vocal skills. She’s a great singer

[@madtownjeremy]

[@illyria135]

You should listen to her voice live. When they preform there's less editing to the music

Beth so glad you reviewed this group. Leaving the main stream and finding talent. I am not a fan of Skynd but I do see their talent.

[@totallyanonymousbish9599]

MORE SKYND PLS

[@ChavezDIY]

I wonder if the whispering voice and the lyrics "hush be quiet" is related to this detail I found in Wikipedia.... He handcuffed and beat Sakina while forcing her to reveal the locations of the family's jewelry, and then brutally raped her. He repeatedly demanded that she "swear on Satan" that she would not scream during his assaults."

In light of the recent death of Metal Church singer Mike Howe, you should check out some Metal Church. Their old stuff is good, but he had left and then rejoined the band a few years back, and the stuff they had been coming out with recently was kick-ass. I'd recommend By the Numbers or No Tomorrow. RIP - Mike Howe. :(

HUGELY recommend Beth checkout "Badlands" as an introduction. Has all his different timbres of vocals (and "Date with Poverty"). Rest in Peace Mike :'(.

sorry if you said this as well I tend to comment very early as if its a live stream. As you said about the lyrics they are related to the crime and killer, but allot of the sayings are also things the killers have said "I'll see you in disney land" was his last words before being sentenced.

[@rogerscurlock2927]

The general consensus is that in her "public life" her name is Marina Ortega, she's an Austrian raceway driver and singer of more conventional music. Obviously there's no confirmation. However, if you watch videos of Marina Ortega singing, her and skynd have the same mannerisms. They're just more exagerated when skynd is singing.

[@yamangumus_80]

Amazing voice

[@jcdillon28]

I have listen to every song SKYND has released. As a former true crime nut I am kind of torn on this band. I appreciate the art in what they are doing. They are very talented musically and the concept of the lyrics being taken from interviews, news and others sources surrounding the cases is very creative. The part that tears me is the glorifying of these horrific crimes and evil people. Just like true crime podcasts and youtube videos. I know they are trying to get the story out but i just have to stop and wounder if some stories should just be forgotten.

[@mereckbxl111]

As you speak about the play in voice's tone, I propose you to listen to Ic3peak. ( La Marche ; Death No More ; Плак-Плак ; Sad Bitch ...) It's in russian, but there are subtitles.

I wld like to see u cover "Smack Jack" by Nina Hagen. Nina was playing performance rock in the 80s that went to a gutteral low that scared the beejeesus out of ppl to operatic highs.

Most serial killers had a record of PTSD and since recent we know that factor 1 ASPD (psychopathy) can develop MDD ( Depression) , combine that PTSD is known for personality disorder development and often comes with Depression. My conclusion and that from dignosed second degree ASPD patients . Is that becoming a serial killer often stems from extreme pain and social isolation. To be short on this if you learn your whole life that you don't matter what does a Child learn from that qua ethics
