Really curious about the rest of the album - so far I'm very pleased to hear that the want-to-sound-massive-at-all-times-and-cost-while-playing-a-single-note-across-3-octaves-and-wandering-aimlessy-while-doing-so orchestra and choir that made its appearance in Embers and imo inflicted a lot of damage on the compendium is not always the leading element but the details (in this case the violin work) and non-musical storytelling elements (supposedly Enyo's speech) that made the music so layered and entertaining earlier are making a comeback. The "breakdown" parts with the violin sound indeed brutal and at 4.51 there is an actually interesting harmonic progression! Wow! I don't remember that happening in a while and it sound really great! I really hope that Mechina will be back on track with the next album and make something intricate yet brutal I'll be able to spin endlessly like Xenon, Acheron, Progenitor. Fingers crossed!
OK, so this song seems to be about Enyo, since Alithea would be frozen at this point in the story, I think. So from what I gather, the humans came first to Acheron, and then waited around in orbit for many decades until the palce was terraformed (why even wake up in the first place then? Couldn't you just keep poeple frozen until the terraforming is complete?). The terraforming of Acheron was grueling, but it payed off, giving them a home that was relatively hospitable. But some people went of to neighboring planet Empyrean, and for some reason, and they didn't really go through the same process there, so it was a harsher place to live on, and people started agumenting themselves or something. I guess they didn't have access to titans or something? But why even leave Acheron in that case, it can't have been overpopulated in such a short time? Well anyway, so the titanborns such as Alithea are sleeping at this point in the story. It sounds like Enyo, Alitheas twin is doing some freaky augmentation stuff to achieve some stronger form or whatnot, and it seems she is positioning herself to be some kind of ruler on Empyrean in some way, a pretty harsh one at that. By the sound of things, there's a lot of duality themes between the two twins. Alithea was given power, she built stuff, then she slept, unitl she eventually had to try to defend her home. Makes her out to be the more peaceful of the two, I guess. Enyo on the other hand seems to be taking power for herself, and is apparently pretty harsh and ambitious? The planet Acheron get depicted as Blue, and Empyrean as red. Likewhise, Alithea is usually depicted with blue lighting such as on the artwork for Cepheus, and seemingly as the frozen woman on the left isde of the artwork int he Realm Breaker video. Enoy appears to be depicted with some red lights around her in the Telesterion album cover, and I assume she is the one depcited on the right of the Realm Breaker artwork, lit in red and splattered with blood. So Alithea is sdepicted as protective, serene, and thematically tied by color to the more "human" world of Acheron, whereas Enyo is depicted as grim, with red lighting reminiscent of Empyrean, which is harsher and less human. So it seems Enyo is being set up as litarrlly being Alithea's evil twin, and she seems to hang out on Empyrean, as well as be associated to it by color. As we know, Empyrean eventually attacked and took over Acheron, but we don't quite know why. It seems fairly safe to bet that Enyo is in some way going to be set up as the one who drives this conflict. There's kind of oging to have to be some sort of personal motivation behind it to make for a good story, and Enyo is pretty much the only candidate character for this, and it seems pretty hinted a that she's cruel, she's already getting Empyrean under a whip, so it wouldn't be surprising. So I guess I'm looking forward to getting some idea of why she would do that, hopefully we'll get some of that in this album. I'm also looking forward to eventually finding out more about Alithea, because as I've said, the prequal albums sets her up more as a protective person, but we know she'll eventually plan some sort of crazy revenge thing against Empyrean, which is still really cruel and destructive to do, even if they killed her people, it doesn't exactly set things right. So what motivates Enyo? What motivated Alithea? How exactly did Alithea get changed by the destruction of Acheron? Will either of them change their mind by the time they get around to this revenga match that's comming up in the main story? And how is Amyntas' motivations going to play into this?
From what I've read/watched/listened to, the humans stayed awake on the cepheus ring not knowing if the terraforming was working so they send augmented humans down (godspeed vanguards) who can survive the conditions of the planet and find a signal from anecitus (creation level event) Most humans went down to acheron one it was finished but some stayed on cepheus to continue to augment themselves more (tellurion Pathos) these humans would go on to build a new titan (hydrus) and terraform empyrean, hoping to one day return and become God's of the others in acheron. They then built more titans to the point they basically outmatched acheron. Hope that helps some?
@@Krushtykon Yeah and when they refused to bow down, Empyrean launched a genocidal invasion on Acheron resulting in it being utterly destroyed. (To Coexist is to Surrender)
@@CapsTheArbiter I feel as if I'm not being very cryptic about this, can't you at least begin to infer it? I'm talking about the storyline that's being told in the Mechina songs. mechinamusic.fandom.com/wiki/The_Mechina_Wiki
The song itself is nothing but amazing, loving every second of it - futuristic, brutal and epic! The mix on the other hand is a bit off in my opinion: everything is drowned in the synthesizers, which is a bummer, because the vocals and guitars are really awesome if one can distinguish them from the rest. I had to turn my subwoofer way up to hear any lows. This is the same single criticism I had with the Compendium remix of the old albums for an otherwise outstanding music project.
I, sadly, have to a agree. I've been a Mechina fan since Empyrean, and while the mix has improved greatly since those days, this is a continuation of the problems present on Compendium. The synthesizers are wayyyy too out front which buries everything else and I am listening through a headset. Still a great song. Just a chore to listen to due to the mix.
I agree for the youtube versions, but if you actually go buy the .wav files from the bandcamp, the mix quality improves so much. Take realm breaker for example: the youtube version sounded like trash but the .wav was nearly perfectly mixed. Yes this song is lacking in the low end but just wait until he releases it on bandcamp and buy it before you make your final criticism
We don't even have a high quality version out yet and this is such a perfect track. The buildup to the guitars is outstanding with that drums + orchestra only segment I absolutely love that. This also brings back the old style of David's vocals - the style where it has that echo effect and it sounds like outer space itself is singing. Haha. My only complaint I guess is that the riff gets a little repetitive while Mel is delivering her monologue.
Absolutely brilliant band and this is a fantastic song. However, I can not stop staring at that image of the woman in the mask, it looks so unbelievably awesome with the bloodstains on her neck, the blood on the cable going to the mask ,and her eyes. Just a stunning image
Telesterion is sounding amazing so far and I am so hyped for the storyline on this album. I wonder if Enyo and her followers are where the Empyrean originate from? Can't wait to hear more about the society developing on the space station and the split with the people who go down to live on Acheron too. "Andara forgive me". Oof, Let's go! It's a credit to the story and concept and how it's executed that I get kinda the same feeling when a new Mechina song drops that I do when a new episode of my favourite TV series comes out. Tbh I'm more excited for Telesterion than most movies and TV at the moment, thankyou for bringing us this awesome thing, Mechina!
@@MrTonmel87 Hey man, there isn't much information on this album yet other than where it fits into the timeline and roughly what it's about so far. I would recommend the Mechina wiki for a lot of good info on characters and stuff although the timeline of the albums is slightly unclear on there. There is also a livestream interview with Joe from the band on YT where he breaks down a lot of the story. It's a bit tricky because you have to kind of piece it together but I have done a more complete timeline which I will put up somewhere and then I'm planning to make a series of videos breaking down the albums/lyrics/story/themes etc so more people can get into it easier.
My god this band can do no wrong, can they? They have a press play discography from what I've heard so far and I'm sure this new album will be just as great if not better!
If I was looking for a roll up for the story to accompany my listening endeavors, where would I go? I’m a bit of a newbie, entranced by this music. Help?
In case you ever want to brush up on the lore, you could always visit the wiki, pretty interesting stuff. mechinamusic.fandom.com/wiki/The_Mechina_Wiki
This sounds like another pretty fine track that I'll never add to playlist. Do not know what happened after Progenitor, but all the songs after it are just dull to me. I wish I could experience that sense of discover again, but each time I listen to a new release I just feel I've already heard it. Nevertheless, thank you for the release!
i somewhat agree. progenitor was amazing, their best cd imo. embers had a few really good songs, but the rest was kinda monolithic, basically all the same riffs and drumming, but with a bit different orchestrations and vocals. this feels like more of the same. its great, but sounds really similar to everything else recent, just with a bit different orchestrations for a twist.
i think that this song offers nothing new musical wise and sounds like i've listened to it a thousand times even in my first time listening to it. has no replayibility, unlike the previous works. other albums offered something new with each song. i remember losing my shit and having goosebumps in the chorus of "Erebus", literally crying out a little when listening to chorus of "Amyntas" while feeling the despair in the "let me remember how to let these tears fall" etc. last album + these singles lacks this feels and brutality.
Yes the Mix is a bit of and the Drums realy sound as fake as they are, but the whole song realy is amazing, sounding like a battle between two godlike beings. XD If I ever do an anime/(animated) movie I know who to call for the soundtrack. XD XD XD
Mechina Unofficial with all due respect, I don’t think TH-cam’s compression changed the balance of the track. That’s never happened to any of my tracks :D
@@TajMikel Its also the bit-rate that he uploads to youtube much lower than the bandcamp but i see where you are coming from all i know is there is a huge difference between the different versions
I wish that they'd also bring back more of the synth and glitch elements that were present before Embers and Progenitor. I especially loved Xenon because of its balance between metal, symphonic, and industrial/electronic. Xenon still remains to be my all time favorite album by Mechina to this day, followed closely by Progenitor and Acheron.
I am a big fan of Mechina since Empyrean and for the first time I'm really not hyped for this new album. Let me explain. The composition seems to be as amazing as the previous albums, but I can't enjoy it, because I can't hear it properly. The guitar riff is barely audible, and It took me a week to realize that there was a sort of violin during the chorus. And it's not only because of the TH-cam compression, it's manly because of the "orchestra" that is covering all the other instruments, like in The Compendium. I know that Telesterion will be the result of a long and hard work, but I feel that this orchestra is ruining it.
For a relevant example, listen to the compendium version of Erebus then listen to the original song. You will see how much complexity the song loses because of that new "orchestra".
@@blouarm Both versions of Erebus are fine with me, but the Zoticus in compendium with the intro piano missing, is one of the biggest misses. Still I consider the compendium and the originals as different songs with the same story and depending on the mood, I will listen to which version I consider best for the situation. The freedom of choosing is there :D.
Bioware should have hired Mechina for Andromeda's. It would at least still be legendary in the ost, if not the game. But they did rather hire some uninspired ones.

Andara passed long before this scene.

MECHINA you deserve more attention!!! This is the real music, legacy of the great classical composers are living with your music!!!
Damn, those are some haunting lyrics
I know right
Yeah kind of graphic and gory but still it's an amazing song
Imagine a Sci-Fi Musical TV series with Mechina's all albums...
motion picture trilogy
That would be godly
So my day just become something like 1000x better.
Most wanted album ever
i know right
Damn, 2019 really is a hell of a year for metal.
Over9000Turtles ikr
For the real music!
Damn straight, got Mechina, Insomnium, Omnium Gatherium, and more so far
Heck ya it's awesome
i think pretty much every year is... ;)
For the first time in 36 years, i can't wait to be in november

This album and The Outer Worlds are my scifi cocaine right now! Probably will be a for a couple of months!
how on earth can the single song be menasingly epic and heavily catchy at the same time?
It makes a different day !!!! Another masterpiece !
YES JOE!!! EPIC!
October and november are the year's metal months
Not a single dislike.... Everything is as it should be.
What a shame... this perfect ratio didn't last
@@SharkSherkan :(
Such an incredible song - Dave's best vocal performance for sure
he is the best growler on this planet honestly. absolutely incredible voice.
anyone think the vocal guy’s technic has improved? this song is the best I’ve heard in a while! thank you Mechina for existing :p
Vocals definitely improved
Now they just need to fix the mix... synth is taking over :/ or its youtube fucking everything up again
Stein17 yeah I think it's definitely the TH-cam audio（at least part of the reason）As Embers Turn To Dust sounded fine to me
And already October has overstayed it’s welcome, just be November so this album can drop. Can’t wait to hear the rest.
