    I am Northlane fan since Node, and I am really digging the vibe from their new electronic sound. I consider it as evolution and natural and progressive step forward (progressive evolution for progressive type of metal). When I listened to Node and Mesmer it felt as very modern type of progressive metalcore, but now I got a futuristic vibe from it, which is even better. So yeah, I feel like the band is ahead of the time now, which is pretty sick.

    Man you hit the nail right down the middle. Northlane have always been in their own lane.. they're just now fully realizing it and taking it into the future of metal and electronic music combined to create the hybrid you've mentioned. For the first time in a long time I am eagerly excited about what direction a band will now move into. Planning to get a Northlane tattoo with album art from their different albums combined and smashing it in to a big music sleeve. Northlane is endlessly phenomenal and I love the fact you're talking at length about them (whether I agree or not). Thanks man

There is a reason it's not well known to begin with, creativity and uniqueness are not welcome in todays pop music. And if they do it's typically because they give up their unique limbs to make more pop friendly music, almost never does a band benefit from a lot of exposure.

    Idk if some MetalBirb followers know them, but in my younger days i got real hooked into this Japanese duo called Boom Boom Satellites.
