This is so fuckin awesome !! Great music, voice AND beautiful metalgirls makes this song just perfect in my opinion ! Looking forward 2 see this girls live at Sweden Rock Festival 2011 ! Hear me roar !! \m/ \m/
Why compare these girls with Angela?, who I think is pretty ordinary, because she does her job well but nothing MASSIVE, and well however, I think that these girls seem to have more influence from Holy Moses, which i think is FANTASTIC, they still need to grow up musically but for a very beginning is pretty classy and kick ass.
I pretty much get sick when a girl does grunts and automatically are compared to Angela, she's not the only one, for Lord's sake!
First all female metal group ive ever listened to! Instrumental wise they are awesome but im not to keen on the vocals, they arent bad but they arent excellent. Overall a good band though. Pretty hot girls too. 4 outa 5. Keep up the good work girls!
Strictly as a listener's POV (yes I'm talking about talent not boobs...though yes Frantic Amber you are all very very fine btw thank the heavens **if I may**) I'd just like to know who is the retard that manned the sound desk for FA?These days you don't have to quad track the guitars to thicken it up and I'm a bass guitarist?Vocals and kicks came out too out front if you ask me.
Other than that FA kicks ass and I hope you girls can keep it up with no BS. \m/
Admirable gesture but very middling, generic music. Nice to see though that there's headway being made to keep death metal from being a total sausage fest.
I happened on to this while searching for all women bands because women who rock are awesome, but than I heard it and it went down hill. Musically I really like this, vocally, its crap. But thats just my opinion, I don't get the whole lets distort our voice and scream or moan into the Mic. But as they say, to each is own.
Fuck this...the bitch sounds like she's taking a long ass burp and taking while doing it. as far as the actually music...eh..it's not bad...My bf just told me about a band called "Your chance to die" (because I told him I can't find any good female vocals) believe it or not, the vocals ARE a girl, and she knows how to work that low "demonic" voice..and she is freak'n tiny as shit..I just don't understand haha.
Great video, great outfits, hot chicks, awesome boobs! BUT the song is a PHAIL! There's some nice riffage, but the drums sound like plastic buckets and the song arrangement is way too poppy in a bad way.
At the risk of being grossly perverted and immature ( fap fap "dunt dun da" fap fap "dunt dun da" fap fap fap fap fap fap fap! ;P )but in all honesty great sound the growl on this video could of been better. other than that i loved it probably a little too much lol!
What a shame.. Theenragedone and myself has now left the building to take this argument to a more suitable location.. Sorry for messing up your comments!
Cheesy lyrics, boring and unimaginative guitar playing. Could have been much more. Nothing that would spin at my home sorry. :/ It just doesn't have the feeling I'm looking for in music. Polished and plain.
I thought these girls are from Sweden. Why the fuck is there an asian chick in the band or why is there an asian person even near scandinavia? Could you please have the bassist send me a message? I would spend money to fly out there and make whoopy with her.
@Theenragedone I'm not saying they're technically as good as some of the guys out there, but still better than some others. At the end of the day it all comes down to if you like what you hear and I do. Girl metal bands (not counting nevermore and "radio metal" acts) always have a harder time just because they're girls.. Maybe it's a threat to the metal-just-boys-club, I don't know.. Are men in general really so distracted by their appearence that they can't focus on their music?
@DrMegaByte666 Ok Nevermore are all men.Jeff Loomis is touted highly as one of the best guitarists out there. Again are you sure you know what you are talking about? The music isnt worth focusing on. Its poorly written, barely average in musicianship, and completely generic. Girls have a harder time in metal then men,because they rarely reach the same levels of musicianship and songwriting. They then use their looks to sell what the music cant. Hence what you have here.
There you go. It's painfully evident that I have to turn the brain on before writing stuff... My bad. What's worse is that I'm a huge fan of Loomis, although not Nevermore. I doubt those guys have anything to show off but in general guys aren't all that different. If they've got nice abs, the shirt goes after the intro.. Girls with nice tits seldom hide them very well and who am I to complain?
With reasoning along those lines, you mean the average guy actually buys an audio cd with a band because of the way they look?? Ridiculous! For what? The cover?? Porn's been banned on the net or what? What you suggest may have worked 40 years ago. To think the same works now is just stupid.. You may get more attention dressing up but you will NOT sell more records.
And in my world there's room for more than the top 8 song writing bands in the world. If I like what I hear I don't really care if Yngwie is doing the solo or not. Furthermore I admire bands like this (girls OR boys). Bands that disregard trends and are fully aware of that the music they want to do is directed to a smaller crowd. Bands that won't make an "unmasked" just because the tides are turning. These bands show awesome integrity and at least I salute them accordingly.
@DrMegaByte666 This band is in no way disregarding a trend. They are jumping one one. Again the vocals sound so incredibly similar to Angela's on Wages Of Sin. Released 8 years ago. The sound is generic, not ground breaking or original. This band doesnt even rank in top song writitng. There are thousands of bands who have used the same blueprint. Male and female. You continue to show me you really dont have a clue about metal.
Are you for real? You point to something 8 years ago and calls it a trend? With a straight face you call female metal with growl a trend? If you believe this yourself you're more delusional than I thought. I have seen so many bands of varied quality jumping on and off trends since 1977. Some more obvious than others but this is definately not one of those bands.
Me being absolutely clueless about metal, I'm sure glad we have guys like you to "educate" us poor bastards...
@DrMegaByte666 You have yet to show that you have a clue. No I point to the first Arch enemy record with Angela 8 years ago. The vocal sound being aped on this record. You claim the band has their own style and arnt following a trend. I ve shown that your claim is incorrect. Angela isnt the only woman growling in metal. We could throw kittie outthere. As painful as it is. Read my post and comment. Not take it in a different direction to make yourself look better.
My only agenda is to convince you of the errors in your reasoning. I see that may take a while if it's even possible. So anything remotely resembling anything is really a trend? I suggest you look up the word trend too. I agree, she does sound a lot lika Angela on that album but there is no trend at the moment that involves female growl. Sure, there are som bands that use it but it doesn't make it a trend now does it?
@DrMegaByte666 What this band is doing has been done before. Yes there is a trend involving the female growl. More bands have been coming out of the woodwork with female extreme vocals. Landmine marathon, Flyleaf,Light this city, and several others Trend - The general course or pervailing tendancy. Now there has been a general course of alot of female bands or female fronted bands using the growl. But you are attempting to argue samantics now. You are splitting hairs. Sorry you cant see that.
@DrMegaByte666 I am now convinced you actually have something to do with this band.Be it a relationship with one of the members, or that you help promote or manage them. Im not saying they arnt nice girls. Im saying what Ive been saying. The music is poorly written, its poorly played, its generic, the lyrics are really bad, and its boring. And they are using looks to sell it and or tix to the shows.They are perpetuating the stereotype. Not breaking it.
Another assumption and yes, another one completely wrong. Not the first time, is it?
I have nothing at all to do with this particular band but I am involved in the music production business. Focusing on metal in Europe. I have no problem with you or any one else not liking the music or the video. I have a problem with people basing their existance and getting their values from assumptions and generalizations. In the exact manner you do.
@DrMegaByte666 Actually this would be the first time I am wrong. Beacuse again effects were used on the vocals:). Ive made points based on specifics. You simply fail to recognize or respond to them. Now you are making an assumption on where I get my existance from. You were the one who assumed Nevermore were female too.
I never assume anything really, not way of doing things. The Nevermore incident was my mistake. Embarrasing as it may be I own up to it. It just didn't register when I wrote it. I base everthing I write on what YOU write and although you may think you know it all, you don't and instead of investigating whatever question, you assume how it must be probably based on your experience. That doesn't make it true. I'll change my nick to DrPhil666 now...
@DrMegaByte666 I have investigated my claims. Again Straightline Stitch,Landmine Marathon,Flyleaf, Light This City, Otep, Kittie,Arch Enemy,Gallhammer and plenty of other female fronted bands use growls and extreme vocals. I dont know it all but I do know quite a bit. You may base what you write on SOME of what I have said but its clearly not the bulk of it. IE songwriting, musicianship, lyrics, and relative originality. You then deflect by using lines like you cute DRPhil line. It wont help you
@Theenragedone First off, I've been living and breathing metal and only metal since I was 9. But sure, I could have picked the suggested "437" instead of 666.. Poser implies that I'm not really the metalhead I apparently lead people to believe. Well, I am.. Poser is the word I suggest you look up. To judge someone based on the username is just utterly lame.
@DrMegaByte666 I know what the word poser means. Ive been involved in the scene a long time. You could have picked another set of numbers. Instead you pick the overused and passe 666. How many millions of other screennames use it. Not really original in the least and well. It makes you look like a poser. Sorry but it does. Untill I see something else out of you Ill stick by my current judgement.
Learn some grungier vocals(anybody with practice can), get some better riffs and lyrics and bam! You can be an ok metal band. Turn it up a big notch then maybe a great band.
oh and what the hell kind of metal name is Frantic Amber?!?! what very bad. You guys and girls should take a look at a band called Petrified Beauty now that is how a female band should do their stuff.
@DrMegaByte666 Ive never been a fan of Manowar. Groupie fags in speedos couls work. Manowar is another band that struggles to write quality music. They arnt great musicians either. Most male bands dont show tons of skin. But then again I dont like crotch rock. I can handle the skin. Its just sad when so many females have to resort to it over selling their music dont you think? I dont see a band like Nevermore needing to show skin to sell records. Do you?
I still say it's sad that guys ALWAYS assume that the girls always resort to selling bodies instead of music because deep down they know it's their only chance. Why wouldn't they refuse to dress up as nuns in a video where they (of course) want to look their best and if you check out their Myspace and the top pic: That's perfection right there! They can't dress better than that imo.
@DrMegaByte666 There is no assumption being made. Ive listened to Frantic Ambers stuff. They do need to resort to selling their bodies to sell records. The music is poor. The lyrics are poor. The song writing is poor. Her vocals are drenched in effects, because she most likely sounds weak without them. Again its not an assumption.
"Again its not an assumption." But there you go assuming AGAIN.. Directly from the guy mixing this - "Lead Vocals: Compressor (Focusrite, Wave Arts), EQ (Kjaerhus), De-esser (Waves) and a slight reverb (Wave Arts)." That's equal to or even less than used for "normal" vocals. I wish people could stop posting their thoughts and beliefs as the truth. Being arrogant may work for some but it's a bitch when the facade begins to crack. Immediately arrogance turns to ignorance.
@DrMegaByte666 After viewing her awful kareoke you can again tell her vocals have effects on them and they do. So again explain how I am igonorant here?And the guy admitted there are effects on her vocals. So explain how I am ignorant or wrong. Because I am not. I said the vocals were drenched in effects. There are effects on the vocals. And ref above her vocals sound really bad without them.
Ignorant doesn't even begin to cover what you're suffering from..
Compressor, eq and reverb are NOT effects as such and they do not alter the voice. Every recording that is made is made with these components. There are so many ways to change how the voice sounds and he hasn't used any of them. Some effects are auto-tune, pitch shifters and the company Antares has an arsenal of voice altering software. They have used nothing more than ANY singer would when recording.
@DrMegaByte666 Really? Yes reverb does effect and alter the voice. Next thing you know you will tell me reverb doesnt affect a guitars sound.An eq is used to help set and modulate tones. You can use it to help effect the vocals. Ive spent hours in studios. Both recording and watching bands Im booking or managing record. I know the deal. But how dare I harp on your precious girls right.
Eh, no, reverb adds room to the voice but doesn't alter it..
I know what is needed to alter a voice in the way you think is being done here. Eq's, compressors and reverbs doesn't help much in the effort to make a tiny girl growler sound huge. You need other stuff for that and again, does Bryan Adams sound drenched in effects on his albums? He uses the same effects as you call them..
@DrMegaByte666 Reverb short for reverberation. Reverb alters guitar and base tones slightly or in a large way depending on how much is used. Its the same with vocals. Considering vocals tend to be recorded on their own tracks why exactly do her vocals need room? Next thing youll tell me is the drums werent triggered up and they are completely organic. Oh and that is me ASSuming youll say that. Perhaps we shoud take this conversation mail and not clutter the page with it.
If you enjoy Angela so why not enjoy this, generic or not? Groupie sluts is pretty harch. Sure, they dress sexy and imo they dress good! But you get more boobs and ass down at the pub any day of the week. They want to look their best and I think they do. I'm in awe of female metal bands struggling in a domain of such huge male dominance.I say cheers all night long to all of them! And it's really all a matter of opinion isn't it? If you hate it, I'll let you, if I love it, let me!
@DrMegaByte666 Because her vocals arnt enjoyable. They are however generic and boring. As are the riffs. No I think groupie sluts is pretty apt. As said they are selling looks not their musicianship. Maybe if they could write bettter tunes, or play their instruments with more skill. They wouldnt have to dress like sluts to sell records. You dont have to let me hate it. Ill do what I please regardless. Most female bands struggle because they cant play. This band continues on that trend.
LOVE IT! Great production, great sound, great vocals. You're definately going places!
@Winther1973 I couldn't disagree with you more! So what you're saying is that female growl is copyright@Arch Enemy?? I think you're just one of those sorry individuals that don't think female vocals has any place in metal. I've seen Frantic Amber live once and the energy they deliver is awesome and the vocals sounds even better!
@DrMegaByte666 This vocal sounds exactly like Arch Enemys first disk with Angela. Its completely generic. The musicianship is barely average. The only decent riff is a completely over used thrash riff countless bands have pulled out. I have no issue with women in metal. As long as they can play. They are more apt to sell records off the looks. Hence dressing like groupie sluts vs dressing like metal chicks. Oh and anyone rolling 666 in a screenname these days is typically a poser.
@DrMegaByte666 Really what big words should I look up?I it doesnt seem that I used any. Though you must think I have. I certainly can judge you. As I would judge any poser who trots 666 in a screen name. That pretty much played itself out over 10 years ago. It dosnt make you seem cool or metal. Which seems to be the intent. Well it failed. As did your attempt at sarcasm. Besides who are you to tell me what I can and cant comment on.

As painful as it is. Read my post and comment. Not take it in a different direction to make yourself look better.

My only agenda is to convince you of the errors in your reasoning. I see that may take a while if it's even possible. So anything remotely resembling anything is really a trend? I suggest you look up the word trend too. I agree, she does sound a lot lika Angela on that album but there is no trend at the moment that involves female growl. Sure, there are som bands that use it but it doesn't make it a trend now does it?
DrMegaByte666 1 year ago
@DrMegaByte666 What this band is doing has been done before. Yes there is a trend involving the female growl. More bands have been coming out of the woodwork with female extreme vocals. Landmine marathon, Flyleaf,Light this city, and several others Trend - The general course or pervailing tendancy. Now there has been a general course of alot of female bands or female fronted bands using the growl. But you are attempting to argue samantics now. You are splitting hairs. Sorry you cant see that.

@DrMegaByte666 I am now convinced you actually have something to do with this band.Be it a relationship with one of the members, or that you help promote or manage them. Im not saying they arnt nice girls. Im saying what Ive been saying. The music is poorly written, its poorly played, its generic, the lyrics are really bad, and its boring. And they are using looks to sell it and or tix to the shows.They are perpetuating the stereotype. Not breaking it.

Another assumption and yes, another one completely wrong. Not the first time, is it?
I have nothing at all to do with this particular band but I am involved in the music production business. Focusing on metal in Europe. I have no problem with you or any one else not liking the music or the video. I have a problem with people basing their existance and getting their values from assumptions and generalizations. In the exact manner you do.
DrMegaByte666 1 year ago
@DrMegaByte666 Actually this would be the first time I am wrong. Beacuse again effects were used on the vocals:). Ive made points based on specifics. You simply fail to recognize or respond to them. Now you are making an assumption on where I get my existance from. You were the one who assumed Nevermore were female too.

@Theenragedone
I never assume anything really, not way of doing things. The Nevermore incident was my mistake. Embarrasing as it may be I own up to it. It just didn't register when I wrote it. I base everthing I write on what YOU write and although you may think you know it all, you don't and instead of investigating whatever question, you assume how it must be probably based on your experience. That doesn't make it true. I'll change my nick to DrPhil666 now...
DrMegaByte666 1 year ago
@DrMegaByte666 I have investigated my claims. Again Straightline Stitch,Landmine Marathon,Flyleaf, Light This City, Otep, Kittie,Arch Enemy,Gallhammer and plenty of other female fronted bands use growls and extreme vocals. I dont know it all but I do know quite a bit. You may base what you write on SOME of what I have said but its clearly not the bulk of it. IE songwriting, musicianship, lyrics, and relative originality. You then deflect by using lines like you cute DRPhil line. It wont help you

@Theenragedone First off, I've been living and breathing metal and only metal since I was 9. But sure, I could have picked the suggested "437" instead of 666.. Poser implies that I'm not really the metalhead I apparently lead people to believe. Well, I am.. Poser is the word I suggest you look up. To judge someone based on the username is just utterly lame.
DrMegaByte666 1 year ago 2
@DrMegaByte666 I know what the word poser means. Ive been involved in the scene a long time. You could have picked another set of numbers. Instead you pick the overused and passe 666. How many millions of other screennames use it. Not really original in the least and well. It makes you look like a poser. Sorry but it does. Untill I see something else out of you Ill stick by my current judgement.

Learn some grungier vocals(anybody with practice can), get some better riffs and lyrics and bam! You can be an ok metal band. Turn it up a big notch then maybe a great band.

Oh, and can I just get your take on a pic.
Google "Manowar" and punch up the second picture you get.
Just curious in your label for not only the kings of metal but the kings of everything macho... "Groupie fags in speedo's"? Would that fit the bill?
It's sad to be trashing the girl bands for showing you more skin than you can handle, the guys have been doing the very same for ages..
DrMegaByte666 1 year ago 7
@DrMegaByte666 Ive never been a fan of Manowar. Groupie fags in speedos couls work. Manowar is another band that struggles to write quality music. They arnt great musicians either. Most male bands dont show tons of skin. But then again I dont like crotch rock. I can handle the skin. Its just sad when so many females have to resort to it over selling their music dont you think? I dont see a band like Nevermore needing to show skin to sell records. Do you?
Theenragedone 1 year ago
@Theenragedone
I still say it's sad that guys ALWAYS assume that the girls always resort to selling bodies instead of music because deep down they know it's their only chance. Why wouldn't they refuse to dress up as nuns in a video where they (of course) want to look their best and if you check out their Myspace and the top pic: That's perfection right there! They can't dress better than that imo.
DrMegaByte666 1 year ago
@DrMegaByte666 There is no assumption being made. Ive listened to Frantic Ambers stuff. They do need to resort to selling their bodies to sell records. The music is poor. The lyrics are poor. The song writing is poor. Her vocals are drenched in effects, because she most likely sounds weak without them. Again its not an assumption.
Theenragedone 1 year ago
@Theenragedone
"Again its not an assumption." But there you go assuming AGAIN.. Directly from the guy mixing this - "Lead Vocals: Compressor (Focusrite, Wave Arts), EQ (Kjaerhus), De-esser (Waves) and a slight reverb (Wave Arts)." That's equal to or even less than used for "normal" vocals. I wish people could stop posting their thoughts and beliefs as the truth. Being arrogant may work for some but it's a bitch when the facade begins to crack. Immediately arrogance turns to ignorance.
DrMegaByte666 1 year ago
@DrMegaByte666 After viewing her awful kareoke you can again tell her vocals have effects on them and they do. So again explain how I am igonorant here?And the guy admitted there are effects on her vocals. So explain how I am ignorant or wrong. Because I am not. I said the vocals were drenched in effects. There are effects on the vocals. And ref above her vocals sound really bad without them.
Theenragedone 1 year ago
@Theenragedone
Ignorant doesn't even begin to cover what you're suffering from..
Compressor, eq and reverb are NOT effects as such and they do not alter the voice. Every recording that is made is made with these components. There are so many ways to change how the voice sounds and he hasn't used any of them. Some effects are auto-tune, pitch shifters and the company Antares has an arsenal of voice altering software. They have used nothing more than ANY singer would when recording.
DrMegaByte666 1 year ago
@DrMegaByte666 Really? Yes reverb does effect and alter the voice. Next thing you know you will tell me reverb doesnt affect a guitars sound.An eq is used to help set and modulate tones. You can use it to help effect the vocals. Ive spent hours in studios. Both recording and watching bands Im booking or managing record. I know the deal. But how dare I harp on your precious girls right.
Theenragedone 1 year ago
@Theenragedone
Eh, no, reverb adds room to the voice but doesn't alter it..
I know what is needed to alter a voice in the way you think is being done here. Eq's, compressors and reverbs doesn't help much in the effort to make a tiny girl growler sound huge. You need other stuff for that and again, does Bryan Adams sound drenched in effects on his albums? He uses the same effects as you call them..
DrMegaByte666 1 year ago
@DrMegaByte666 Reverb short for reverberation. Reverb alters guitar and base tones slightly or in a large way depending on how much is used. Its the same with vocals. Considering vocals tend to be recorded on their own tracks why exactly do her vocals need room? Next thing youll tell me is the drums werent triggered up and they are completely organic. Oh and that is me ASSuming youll say that. Perhaps we shoud take this conversation mail and not clutter the page with it.

If you enjoy Angela so why not enjoy this, generic or not? Groupie sluts is pretty harch. Sure, they dress sexy and imo they dress good! But you get more boobs and ass down at the pub any day of the week. They want to look their best and I think they do. I'm in awe of female metal bands struggling in a domain of such huge male dominance.I say cheers all night long to all of them! And it's really all a matter of opinion isn't it? If you hate it, I'll let you, if I love it, let me!
DrMegaByte666 1 year ago 21
@DrMegaByte666 Because her vocals arnt enjoyable. They are however generic and boring. As are the riffs. No I think groupie sluts is pretty apt. As said they are selling looks not their musicianship. Maybe if they could write bettter tunes, or play their instruments with more skill. They wouldnt have to dress like sluts to sell records. You dont have to let me hate it. Ill do what I please regardless. Most female bands struggle because they cant play. This band continues on that trend.

@Winther1973 I couldn't disagree with you more! So what you're saying is that female growl is copyright@Arch Enemy?? I think you're just one of those sorry individuals that don't think female vocals has any place in metal. I've seen Frantic Amber live once and the energy they deliver is awesome and the vocals sounds even better!
DrMegaByte666 1 year ago 4
@DrMegaByte666 This vocal sounds exactly like Arch Enemys first disk with Angela. Its completely generic. The musicianship is barely average. The only decent riff is a completely over used thrash riff countless bands have pulled out. I have no issue with women in metal. As long as they can play. They are more apt to sell records off the looks. Hence dressing like groupie sluts vs dressing like metal chicks. Oh and anyone rolling 666 in a screenname these days is typically a poser.

Ouch.. Hurt my arm while falling over when laughing
my ass off! I suggest you first look up these big words
before you throw them around. You don't know me at
all, thus you can't really call me shit and you certainly
can't judge me.
I have never addressed you but I wouldn't insult or judge you the first chance I get , unless you give me good reason. Let's stick to topic, shall we?

@DrMegaByte666 Really what big words should I look up?I it doesnt seem that I used any. Though you must think I have. I certainly can judge you. As I would judge any poser who trots 666 in a screen name. That pretty much played itself out over 10 years ago. It dosnt make you seem cool or metal. Which seems to be the intent. Well it failed. As did your attempt at sarcasm. Besides who are you to tell me what I can and cant comment on.
