Honestly Chase, you have to be one of the best music reaction channels on this platform, the fact that you stop after every section to soak in what you've heard, to appreciate the craftsmanship of the music and highlight certain noteworthy parts of the song is as interesting to watch as it is entertaining. Cheers man 🤙

Been friends with the members of the band for over a decade, and I can tell you that they have worked so hard for everything they’re getting now. Courtney killed all the songs when I saw them last March, and usually vocals are the one thing that doesn’t translate as well from recorded to live.

Spiritbox - Bleach Bath You won't regret it.

I think the smile on your face when the breakdown hits says it all about the genius and heart that went into making this one 😁

Bleach Bath or The Mara Effect all 3 parts together. Both are just quintessential Spiritbox.

Oh that 3 in one version of mara effect feels awful to me. The drumming feels like it drags like crazy. The very crisp and intricate way that the rest of the song interacts with drumming on the individual tracks is utterly spoiled in the 3 in 1 version. Go listen to them back to back.

it's funny, I used to be totally into whatever a band could create in a studio with whatever effects they could come up with, but since listening to Jinjer I've become kinda a purist about the live sound. I think part of it is that I'm watching AI and robots grow rapidly in capability and have come to feel like the drama of human performance is something vitally important and incredibly special. By contrast, there is a lot of pop with lyrics that sound like they were written by an AI, vocal effects that sound like a machine synthesized the audio, and music that is either well within the capabilities of AI to write or is just a few years away.

She is an absolute goddess. And what an incredible piece of story telling.

The face you made when the chorus came in must have been the same I had when I first listened to this song :D The impact the guitars give when they kick in together with her layered vocals create such a haunting atmosphere that makes it hard to forget for the rest of the day. Absolutely beautiful piece. And again such a nice reaction! I really love your attention for details, makes you listen to the songs again with a completely different mindset. Thank you for letting me re-experience the music I love for the first time again :)

I just love hearing people's thoughts, how they perceive the world.

Much of the time I find it difficult to put into words how music makes me feel. You are able to do that so well. You also bring out nuances of the music that most people probably don’t catch. Love watching your reactions.

You should listen to Trust Fall - Spiritbox

I'ts been stuck in my head all month long, still not annoyed!

I think you would like the Mara Effect, Part 1. Very interesting guitar work and a cool solo with great whammy work and some raking. There is also live studio version of all three Mara Effects. Worth looking at.Also,they will have a vocal playthrough of Holy Roller soon. It's up on their patreon now.

Couldn't wait for Chase's reaction to the breakdown, the layered vocals before the breakdown sound so eerie that it adds a completely different vibe that contrasts the rest of the song, it almost warns you something different is coming, I love it. Edit: Also I'm pretty sure they used bridge cables on the guitar for that breakdown, if anyone could confirm.

Just found this song the other day when I was going through their song list, and I have to say this definitely has become my favorite so far! Yes, the video is disturbing as hell...lol! I don't think I will be able to unsee this; however, the bonus is this song has now replaced Rule of Nines as my ear worm! 😂 Thanks for introducing me to this band, Chase! Have a great day! 🤘💗☮

When I first saw this video I thought "It would be so funny if all the guys ended up dead in the end"....and it happened and I was happy! :) That was soft in the beginning then brutal in the end. I'd watch this movie!

You gotta check out Courtney’s one take live performance of The Beauty of Suffering

Love how, in the chorus, the guitar goes in a different direction to the usual. Usually in a chorus like this, the guitar and the bass would just stay on the root with held notes/chords, but they remained busy, moving around the fretboard, but doing it tastefully without making it sound erratic. Fucking awesome!

Yes I'm so glad u enjoyed! Honestly, its impossible not to haha. This is actually the song that turned me onto them and has created my obsession. Next I would say Belcarra, Bleach Bath, and/or Electric Cross

Can't get enough from Spiritbox! They are pure fire, they are killing it. They still really deserve much more attention for everything they do. They are creating art. There hasn't been a single day without Spiritbox for me since I've discovered them about a year ago - their music is so diverse and it never get's boring to listen to their stuff. Much love for Spiritbox ♥ as always really enjoyed your reaction/review, it's awesome to see someone who really knows what he's talking about and also even noticing the smallest details! Cheers!

and again: I can't believe how sweet and nice person you are. I've never seen anyone pay so much attention to detail and explain in a react video. absolutely love it! please go on

Another great breakdown/reaction man! I dont often find someone that points out things that i miss after listening to a song a few times. Also i said the same thing after i heard the chorus to this song once haha Bleach Bath or Belcarra have definitely gotta be your next ones!

I heard this song when it first came out and completely forgot about it.. I can't think of a reason why I didn't listen to it on repeat since then.

Blessed Be Spirit Box 😇

I'm super glad you're checking out Spiritbox! Awesome song! Check out more asap! I'd recommend their songs "Belcarra" + "The Beauty of Suffering" -- the live one-take performance for that last one! If you want to see them live, check out their trilogy of songs called "The Mara Effect" performed live in-studio at Silverside Sound!! 3 songs + 1 interlude (16 minutes total)! It has a super atmospheric + intense mood to the performance. You'd enjoy every minute of it! Check out the Japanese metalcore band Earthists. + their new song "SUNBLOOD"!

i had this song stuck in my head for my 8 hour shift in the hospital tonight lul.

Really enjoy all of your videos Chase. I highly suggest listening to (and maybe one day reacting to, because i would love to know what you think) her work in Unicron which predates the iwrestledabearonce days. The entire EP "Powerbomb" is legit. Is it as crisp and well produced as Spiritbox? No - but it is worth every second of your time - especially "It's a Trap" and "Manic Panic" (The latter of which may contain her best cleans ever in my opinion and they come out of nowhere). I think Courtney's evolution has been incredible and it's really nice to see that she is finally being recognized as a top tier artist.

When I hear you talking about how you like the guttural and emotional scream of Courtney, I can't stop thinking that you should defenitely go back to some Gojira stuff. Joe's voice is so powerful on a few of their songs, especially on the Album "The way of all Flesh". The Art of Dying or the Gift of Guilt could be a great songs to listen to after Silvera. There's also a live version from another song to watch - Gojira - Hellfest 2013 - Where Dragons Dwell. 10 minutes of pure epicness. It is something.

Such a good song. Always good to hear your take on some of my favorite songs! I was curious, do you have any original music from when you were playing in a band on a regular basis?

Love the video for this song but in terms of music, this one is absolutely better live, specifically the SiriusXM Liquid Metal version they did. If you were gonna check out a live version do that, because the mixing is literally the best I've ever heard in any song. It's jaw droppingly good how well the entire concert was mixed, frankly.
