I couldn't stop crying. Vocal ANALYSIS with isolated vocals of Lorna Shore's "Pain Remains" Trilogy



Lorna Shore’s new album “Pain Remains” out today! https://lornashore.lnk.to/PainRemainsID

When was the last time you bawled your eyes out to music? For me, I definitely wouldn’t have expected it to be at the hands of a Deathcore Ballad. Not only have the entirety of Lorna Shore created one of the most emotional trilogies I’ve ever heard, but Will Ramos’s vocals are absolutely stunning, along with some insane production. This is a true work of art.

Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to Lorna Shore performing “Pain Remains” parts 1, 2 and 3 for the first time.

  1. I really like your content, especially when I read Will Ramos/Lorna Shore somewhere! Talking bout that, have you heard his clean vocals on his cover of Sleep Token? Maybe it's less impressive, but it's pretty as hell! :3

  2. I've had these songs on repeat constantly and I feel like they take you through the stages of grief. Part 1 is the pain and sadness of the build up and loss
    Part 2 is the raw rage of it and it being entirely out of your control
    Part 3 is the acceptance or maybe better yet in this case the refusal to accept.

  3. As a Chinese from a non-English speaking country, I have carefully watched your video. Thank you very much for your analysis, and I am very happy that you can react to my favorite band of this year!

  4. Having lost someone who was close to me, this song hits hard. Even without the video there's just so much feeling in everything that happens in the song. The solo definitely chokes me up, I don't think I ever expected a song to make me feel so much.

  5. Anyone that enjoys the orchestral sound of these songs should also listen to the band Bleeding Through. They have been using these types of instruments since their conception.

  6. I think some of the emotional impact you were talking about comes from the fact that you didn't expect to hear this in deathcore. This is really changing the game. I love the analysis in this video, I didn't think I'd enjoy something like this!

  7. my favourite trilogy would have to be Lord of the Rings, no question about it. Love LOTR so much and the music, the MUSIC. don't get me started on how much I love the music.

  8. A recommendation for another trilogy for me would have to be ReVamp – The Anatomy Of A Nervous Breakdown. I dont want to give away too much, but you will almost instantly recognise the lead singer in the band. Part 1 is called On The Sidelines. Part 2 is called The Limbic System and part 3 is called Neurasthenia. Also there is a song from the same band called Wild Card. You can find a live version at Effenaar Eindhoven from 2014

  9. Part one got me with the sudden end. It added so much emotion to the story. Life is fickle and could end at a moments notice and everything stopped at the end of that song. Sudden and unremorseful such as death is. Yeah I need to get some tissues now myself.

  10. My wife left me a little bit ago. I just got home from my deployment today. Coming home after no family reunion on base, and having the empty house was rough. Lorna Shore has done wonderfully to portray emotions that i can relate to. Im glad to see their work being appreciated outside of their usual community.

  11. Elizabeth!

    As the band's producer, thank you for the wonderful in-depth analysis of the vocals and music. These guys really put everything they had into this record, and especially these 3 songs.

    Production, mixing, and mastering to me isn't purely a utilitarian process, but a creative one too. It should always serve the song, emotions, and the people expressing themselves, and not distract from it. It's easy to get carried away, because sometimes, getting carried away is exactly what the part needs.

    Let me share a little bit of my process for the Pain trilogy:

    Part I: for the intro, I took Adam's scratch keyboard writing session lead and built an intro around it. The obvious thing to do would be to build a bombastic orchestration, but I just loved how sad and small it sounded on that keyboard. It just perfectly captured what he was going through at the time. Not a big, triumphant moment, but a sad, lonely one in studio B, with a giant "LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE" sign on the door, trying to write his way out of severe depression. It was this exact keyboard performance that sold me on using this melody and building the trilogy around it.

    Part II: the intro from part I is then developed into the chorus here, and it being the theme of the trilogy, it was a no-brainer to have Will scream along with it, step for step, to really reinforce it as the main theme. The key change on the last chorus comes from their hometown hero – Bon Jovi. I just love it when bands take influence from atypical places. That mixture and cross-pollination is what's beautiful about new music.

    Part III: with the transition from part II to part III, I wanted to bring the piece down to a dark place, then build it back up into this epic, malicious, foreboding climax, where as you so eloquently put it, "deathcore becomes the ascension of that emotional tension". The intro needs to set the scene for the final chapter, so my idea for the string arrangement was to have this cyclical, ascending and descending motion to it, which reflects all the highs and lows you've experienced, but also foreshadows an ominous conclusion. By the time you hit the big band outro of this song, you either realize this big moment is from the intro of part I and the chorus of part II… or you don't, but either way, you can feel the familiarity of the melody reach its peak form after the dramatic pause to cause the listener to lean in and anticipate this moment. Will uses all 3 chorus lines here, to create a new one, and to tie the entire trilogy together. A great example of his brilliant writing style and attention to detail.

    Outro: I wanted to close out the trilogy, by bringing back Adam's original synth sound from the intro to drive home that you've returned to where you began, but now with delicate quartet strings and a soft choir setting up that return, to make it feel like you've crossed over through this journey. I really love how this is the only time you hear the melody truly resolve, which fades into the fire sounds.

    I love how you can appreciate all the beauty here, but also the filthy breakdowns, haha. It's really that extreme dichotomy that makes the band truly great.

    But yeah, I'm just super happy that you and your channel exists and points out all of the time and effort we, and other artists and producers and mixing engineers, all put into these productions. Music appreciation makes the world a better place, and you're at the forefront of this on youtube. It's incredibly validating as a producer to hear you passionately dissecting the music, performances, and production. I absolutely love the lack of edits and cuts, by the way.

    Keep doing exactly what you do <3

  12. Lorna Shore have absolutely killed it with this album, it's incredible! Another trilogy you should check out is 'Muramasa' 'Ragnarok' and 'Masamune' by Periphery. Spencer Sotelo is an amazing vocalist.

  13. Favorite trilogy from my youth…. “ Dragonlance : Chronicles” books.
    “Dragons of Autumn Twilight”
    “Dragons of Winter Night”
    “Dragons of Spring Dawning”
    Originally started as a game module but the story was so rich, the authors decided to make them as books. Love the characters, love the story. I have reread these many times over the years. I still hold out hope that some day they will be made into live action films. Also, love this video!! ❤️❤️❤️

    Much peace and love and as always.. MTFBWY!
    🤘😎🤘

  14. I would like to recommend Home is for the Heartless by Parkway Drive lyric video but this will probably not get seen. I personally love the song Because it brings so much emotion and the song itself can Relate to a lot of people on so many different levels.
