Somebody SoulCycles to that, I'm sure. ♪ (dramatic chord) ♪ - (Finebros) So how would you describe what we just showed you? - I would describe these videos as very disturbing. - Vibes of Marilyn Manson. I enjoy it. - It reminds me a lot of kind of the Final Fantasy aesthetic. - It was a little Tim Burton-esque. Like a designed nightmare. - If I were six years old, and I sat here and you put this computer in front of me on camera, I would have started crying. - Me too. - (Finebros) What genre of music would you classify these bands under? - Uh... (laughs) is there a genre for them? - Panic! at the Disco meet Marilyn Manson. - I would call that carnage pop. - Japanese heavy metal? - Heavy metal. - Screamo heavy metal? - Screamo heavy metal music mixed with cosplay and very artistic costuming. - (Finebros) So all of these bands are considered something called "visual kei"... - "Visual kei." - (Finebros) ...which is a movement among Japanese music, characterized by the use of varying levels of makeup, elaborate hairstyles, flamboyant costumes, and sometimes androgynous aesthetics. - Okay. - So like late '70s. (both chuckle) - (Finebros) Would you say you liked it? - No. - I wouldn't say I liked it. - I did not like it. I appreciate the art form and people being able to express themselves. - I did. Everything looks very perfect. The hair was perfect. Their skin-- everything was just unreal. - From a musical standpoint, no. From a visual standpoint, yes, absolutely. - (Finebros) Can you think of any music genre in the west that is kind of equivalent to what these guys are doing? - I mean, like Slayer, I guess, and Slipknot. - Insane Clown Posse? - Makes me think of, like, '80s kind of like rock bands. - Kiss. - Mm-hmm, with their makeup and like, "Ah." - (Finebros) So let's talk about these videos. The first one was Insanity Injection. - That's a dope name. - (Finebros) What did you think of it? What was happening in that video? - Insanity. That's their name. - I was so distracted by the screaming that I wasn't even getting the full effect of the imagery. - It was like the worst parts of Ridley Scott's Alien. - It was Satan's side bitches, and they didn't eat that morning. So they decided to eat all the humans. - They were eating people. One of the girls had their costume like this. She looked like Kerrigan. - Weird monsters and flesh-eating people are-- I don't know. I never expected to see it in a music video. - (Finebros) Second band is called the Gazette. - The Gazette? - (Finebros) And they've been around since 2002. - Oh, wow. - (Finebros) And they're one of the most popular bands inside of visual kei. What did you think about them? - They're probably the most popular, 'cause they're not eating dead bodies. - I found myself strangely attracted to them. (laughs) - That was cool. I see they've been lasting so long. - Out of all of them, that's the one that I could get down with the most. - I was expecting some crazy thing to pop out, but it stayed pretty mellow. I liked it. - It was still definitely in the wheelhouse, like in that style realm. But because it was more simple, I could enjoy the music a little bit more. - (Finebros) And the last video's from a band called DADAROMA. Thoughts on that one? - It just, like, unsettled my stomach. - I can't possibly form an opinion that's not "I'm afraid." - The clown thing's a little weird. I have a bit of an aversion to clowns. - I don't like clowns, so that's me. And the music was screaming, which is also not me. - I love that vaudevillian aesthetic. I love the puppet-show feel that it had. - A feel of kind of a Alice in Wonderland vibe going on. - I liked the music. The visuals threw me off, but I guess that's what kei does. - (Finebros) So visual kei is referred to by a lot of people as a genre of music. But people who are in visual kei bands will say it's not a genre. But it's the fashion and participation in the related subculture that makes you a visual kei band. What are your thoughts about that concept, that could have multiple types of genres inside of an aesthetic? - I guess I kinda like it, because then it's inclusive to anybody that wants to participate, no matter what your taste of music is. - It allows for people to express themselves in all of these different ways, and I think that's really cool. - I like that it's part of a movement. - And those videos we just saw-- they're like three different types of songs. But, you know, their costumes are really cool. - Korn kinda did it later, where they mixed this kind of like rap rock but metal thing together. - It created this culture that existed with these themes, similar, I would say, to visual kei, where these themes all lived in there. - (Finebros) Finally, after being exposed to some of these videos, do you think this is something you're gonna want to look up and see what other bands are out there? - Absolutely not. - No. - No. If I'm gonna search it, I'm gonna be searching it to scare people. - No. I'm not interested in any way to delve into this nightmare. - Visually, it's great. Maybe I'll do a Google Image search, but maybe not a YouTube music search. - 100%. I am going to make a Spotify playlist of visual kei music. - After learning that there can be-- it's about the visual aesthetic and that it's not just one thing. So that makes me think, "Oh, there might be something that I would gravitate towards." So that's worth looking into. - Thanks so much for watching another episode of YouTubers React. - You can subscribe to everybody down below here, here, here, boop, boop, boop, ba-doo-boop. - Do you have something you want us to react to next?
