If I may as well, I'd like to recommend the female-fronted Norwegian Folk Rock/Metal band Bergtatt whose hurdy-gurdy player also plays another traditional instrument called Nyckelharpa (that's the Swedish word, in English it's called keyed fiddle). To hear and see him on both instruments, I'd recommend the videoclip of their concert at Barba Negra in Budapest, 2016, or just check their audioclip of "Huldra" (which also happens to be the song being played first in the aforementioned concert video). The Swedish Folk Rock bands Garmarna and Hedningarna were probably (among) the first to use a hurdy-gurdy when combining traditional/folk music and Rock in the first half of the nineties. Both bands also use other folk music-related instruments in their songs.

This really illustrates why metal is the biggest creative tent. They're joining classical, jazz, blues, and folk with metal providing the glue. It really provides the space for all of these excellent musicians to let their creativity run free. That's why they all are having such a great time.

With the creative output from Nightwish waning (every new album takes a year longer, if the pattern holds, the next is not due until 2026) it is time for the next generation to take over. Scardust really has a lot of potential, even their Nightwish covers with the live choir are amazing. Unfortunately, this is hard to get on tour profitably.

yayyyy!! you FINALLY made it to Scardust! They're so underrated! They deserve more recognition! amazing musicians ❤

You have to check out other songs by Scardust. You just have to! This is a great band and their all songs are so good that it doesn't matter what song you choose from them. Fantastic reaction, thank you!!! 😎😎
I was already a big Patty Gurdy fan....but now I guess I'll have to check out some Scardust. It's always so much fun to see you react to music that I grew up with, but might be even better to discover something new with you.
Much needed on the channel. Scardust are amazing and the range of Noa is beyond belief. If you want to get an impression of how much further than this her range goes I would suggest listening to "Shards". It is a long piece, but it is definately worth it and you will add new impressions of her voice from operatic to the darkest metal. Enjoy.
Thanks for this! I already knew both Scardust and Patty, but somehow I missed this absolute gem of a song. Great song, great reaction 👍
Whether I'm listening to Noa and Scardust or Noa and Hellscore or as in this case Noa, Scardust and Hellscore together, I'm seriously in love with the music. I love Noa's voice and the musicianship of the guys in Scardust is just next level. The A Cappella sounds from Noa and Hellscore are amazing but just as amazing when combined with instrumentation. In short, I haven't heard a bad piece of music from any combination of these folks. I just keep wanting to hear more and more. Of course, Patty Gurdy is a treat whether she's solo or working with others, and this was like adding a cherry to an ice cream sundae with her joining together with Scardust, Hellscore and Noa. Thanks Elizabeth.
Way cool! A new one for me. The old rocker digs it! As always a great reaction Elizabeth! 👍👍🤟🤟

OMG!!! My heart skipped a beat and I about fell out of my chair when I saw this, Elizabeth! I am absolutely in love with Noa Gruman & Scardust!!! She has the most amazing voice! She has a 4/5 octave vocal range with power and agility and versatility and control. She has some of the most jaw dropping vocal runs I’ve ever heard. She’s proof positive that the human voice is a musical instrument, itself! And, each of the band members are all insanely talented, as well, creating wonderful, unique music together! I have been hoping for a reaction for nearly a year, now, and I think “Concrete Cages” is a great introduction to Noa, Scardust, and her choir, Hellscore! It has a bit of everything and really shows off their musical chops. Thank you, thank you, Elizabeth, I’ll be waiting with bated breath until this drops……

Thank you for the introduction to this amazing musicians - great song, amazing instrumental parts and mind-blowing unique vocals - absolutely brilliant ❤🥰😍
Love Scardust. Got into them after hearing Hellscore (another Noa Gruman project) backing up Orphaned Land on one of their live shows. They're the choir backing this song.
Have never heard of this, but I dig it. Gives me a Celtic vibe with the strings and the visuals in the woods, which I love. The use of the choir adds something that seems to soften the heaviness of entire song which makes it sound fuller and robust than just a head-banger.
Going to extend my thanks to Elizabeth and the Patreons for this one. I've been checking out Scardust today and wow!
I’m loving what I’m hearing. I’m a fan of Prog and Metal, including symphonic Metal, Nightwish being my favorite. The use of the Hurdy Gurdy makes it for me. The Hurdy Gurdy is my second favorite “older” instrument, second only to the Mellotron.
Thank you for the analysis..They are all greate musicians. Noa has an amazing voice and together with Patty you can hear the tight bond there is between these two best friends. I feel like I've been a tiny tiny little part of this music video.. The ring Patty is wearing, she got it from me 😊 ..As an lapidarist I've made the cabochone cut stone in that ring.

Are you open to suggestions based on what you just wrote? For more hurdy-gurdy, I recommend the female-fronted Norwegian Folk Metal/Rock band Bergtatt. The guy who plays the hurdy-gurdy sometimes also switches to another traditional instrument called Nyckelharpa (the national musical instrument of Sweden), which literally means "key harp" and is called "keyed fiddle" in English. There's a clip with a decent recording of a live concert they played in Budapest in 2016: kzread.info/dash/bejne/pKaXqtFsmsfJhZs.html The Swedish bands Garmarna and Hedningarna (the latter featured two Finnish female singers on several of their albums) already played a mixture of traditional folk music and rock in the middle of the nineties and both also included a hurdy-gurdy in many of their songs. You might also like the band Stolen Babies, whose female vocalist plays accordion, which I'd say is one of the most uncommon instruments in metal/rock. Their style is avant-garde-ish and doesn't really fit into any genre properly. Overall, I'd still consider their debut album "There Be Squabbles Ahead" metal, but there are many other influences as well. If you aren't already familiar with them, check out the videoclip of "Push Button" (with Tim Burton-esque visuals) and the audioclip "Filistata" (the latter might fit the description "circus metal", which has already been brought up in connection with this band or at least some of their songs).

For more bagpipes in metal music check out In Extremo. A German band that plays metal versions of authentic Medieval ballads and songs based on old poetry (such as the Merseburg Incantations). All songs sung in the original languages, too.
All I can say is FINALLY! Love this band and excited for you to explore them more! Noa is one of those singers that can do anything.
I love the scat section, where the singer's like, "And now check out what I can really do!" It was a total flex on her part.

What a great surprise from you to make a reaction video to my new favorite (symphonic) progressive metal band from Israel with stellar musicians and a vocal beast Noa Gruman, who: 1. makes her own stage outfits 2. writes the lyrics & co-composes the songs with her friend Orr Didi, who quite recently replaced the original bassist of the band & also plays bass in this music video 3. has served her two year military service with the Israeli armed forces 4. conducts the Hellscore metal A Cappella choir that has performed with bands like e.g. Therion, Ayreon & Amorphis both in studio & live 5. is a classically trained pianist & cellist, although she doesn't play these instruments with Scardust 6. has also been working with the Israeli opera as 1st soprano and also with Zubin Mehta 7. worked on her extreme vocals with Floor Jansen for two years online and has over an octave wider range (i.e. 4,5 octaves) than e.g. Floor Jansen, Simone Simons, Tarja Turunen & the late Whitney Houston. P.S. Noa also co-produced and edited this music video. And one of Noa's sisters plays the violin (on the right hand side of the male violin player) & the other (in red dress) sings in the choir. P.S.S. You also really should react to Noa's A Cappella version of Symphony X's "Paradise Lost" in which she makes all the sounds, even the birds.

Absolutely no way for average even seasoned metal listeners to be prepared for this one! It’s a modern day metal opus! Everyone in this collab gets to shine and do their own “runs” as you said it. Every moment jam packed with deliciousness to hear and explore w multiple listens. Be warned though this chorus ... is contagious ! so glad you did this react!!
Omgggg my favorite band ever I have a tattoo of them😊
This song just scratches the surface of what Scardust can do! All of their musical catalog is great, but notable are the Sands of Time suite, Arrowhead, and all of the Strangers album. Elizabeth, I knew someday you’d find out about Noa; we’d like to see you do more videos on Scardust!

100% agree with your take. Strangers is worth a full listen through.
No way! I literally went on your channel page and searched "Scardust" last week and now you drop this 😄
Thank you for this. I enjoy watching your reactions, I enjoy them as a way to be introduced to new music like this. It was your reaction to Hi Ren that I saw first.Thank you for that. I have also enjoyed seeing you be startled by things like Ian Gillan screaming in tune in Child in Time. And yes, you do pull some interesting expressions. Thanks for all that you do.
You should check out Scardust doing live Nightwish songs. Love Scardust.
I like the idea of ‘all the gears turning underneath’ to represent the polyrhythms of instrumentation
We most definitely must highlight the hurdy-gurdy! An ancient instrument from the dawn of Western music finding a new life in heavy metal! Love it. Now, what about a reaction to the new Eluveitie singles, Aidus or Exile of the Gods? My vote is for Aidus.
Thank you, thank you Elizabeth for reacting to this! Been waiting to hear your reaction to Scardust for a while. Noa is simply incredible.
More Patty Gurdy!
I love Patty she´s incredible she´s also one of the few reasons why I fell in love with hurdy-gurdy sound I love her creativity on the instrument also she´s really good singer but the melodies that she´s able to come up with are quite impressive (imo at least 😅 ) but her own stuff and the stuff that she did with the pirate metal band called Storm Seeker ( worthy of at least check out ) is my fav for sure ..
Elizabeth, please check out Scardust's live performance of their original song, "Dials". It is a tour-de-force of musicianship and features the best example of Noa's vocal techniques. If I remember, Noa studied vocal techniques with Floor Jansen.

@@yehudasimon6957 Thank you! I'll be sure and listen to StarOne too. I'm waaay behind
WOW. This band is great!!!
I’ve watched Patty for years.. glad you’re giving her a listen. You should check out her own stuff..
There is very iconic (& old) song that called 4 after noon, all the song is the sounds of this dabadabada, and i think that its a reference for it
Just bought a ticket for a Blind Guardian show, where Scardust is gonna be as well. So hyped!
Very cool. I will have to look into enjoying more of Scardust and revisit Patty Gurdy’s music plus that choir was great.
For "I always read the comments and tally up suggestions" Elizabeth: Please, please more Patty Gurdy. I've been obsessed with her music for years and would be fascinated with your reactions. You always seem to point out the "why" about the music I love and there's so much to dig into with Patty. Some suggestions... This is one of her most popular and helped many discover her. "The Longing" kzread.info/dash/bejne/oq19urRso5u1pLw.html Another one of her most popular. "Over the Hills and Far Away" kzread.info/dash/bejne/d5drlJunncTQp8Y.html This one she did for the prime show Carnival Row. "Grieve No More" kzread.info/dash/bejne/iqqIw6qooJnMZ8o.html One of my favorites, a traditional Irish song by a German woman playing the Hurdy Gurdy. I mean come on. "Molly Malone" kzread.info/dash/bejne/i3eeus2PYcTHc5s.html Probably overdoing it but her take on a Christmas song. "The Yule Fiddler" kzread.info/dash/bejne/jKWZ1byen8yrZqw.html
You should look at her (Noa Gruman) one take performance of 'Tantibus II'. It really shows of her range. Immensely talented singer.
