    I can’t get enough of this band. This single and their last ep. 10/10. Goosebumps every time

      Greyview is my favorite album of all time. I swear I listened to it about 50 times just last July.

    These guys are so underrated imo. And seeing their live shows have 4 ppl moving is painful. Hopefully this new album gets them more recognition. Stoked for it!

      It is sad lol. I saw them in April earlier this year when they toured with like moths to flames, Polaris and alphawolf. They opened, and only 1 other person moshed. It was upsetting that they arent more popular. They are absolutely amazing. I'm hoping touring with those 3 bands that are big in the genre gets them some more attention

    Vocals are INSANE on this track, and the mixing is SOOOO good. There's so much more beef behind the low/mid screams the past few tracks they've dropped and their new vocalist has completely surpassed the old in my opinion. The lows toward the end of this track blew me out of my chair, I was laughing it was so good lmao

      @Madden 07 Soundtrack Fan Account [Kendrick AOTY] yeah their lyrics are gross out and cringe, but they’re also a pretty solid parody of old school death metal bands like Cannibal Corpse. Their musicianship and sense of melody (especially in their latest album) is undeniable. They embrace the cringe and I appreciate them for it. I just wish the drums didn’t sound so fake haha

    One of my 3 favorite metalcore bands (alongside Erra and Bleed from within) with another banger. I love the vocals- heavy, low growls in the breakdown and then some falsetto like nothing happened. Waiting for an album, I hope first half of next year

    The way the chorus is sweet with the voice choice of tones but if you pay attention the guitars are going in a whole another direction (heavier, darker, grittier) is so amazing.

      @@METALBIRB Thank you very much for your reply, it means a lot. I am very interested in it because I struggled a lot with mental health issues and whenever I see someone who I like I might just ask them a couple of questions. With that being said, I hope that you are doing good! :) For me personally it did change a lot to the better side of things when I cut out alc completely, but that might be just me ^^

    I really do love Invent Animate but there's a lot of flaws to their music and their performances that set them back. One massive one being how buried the vocals are, which works at times sure, but they remind me of the band I Am Abomination, where you hear this super good instrumental that makes it feel likes it's going to be a banger of a song, but then you can't hear the singing well at all. I've been listening to metal all my life and if I have to google the lyrics to a song at this point, it's not a song I'm going to listen to again or much. You have to be more clear and distinct these days with vocals. There's so many bands doing this style of music, you don't want to be the one with the buried vocals. With that said, my biggest complaint about their live performances is the technicality of their playing. The guitarist and bassist are great musicians, but I've seen the playthroughs, I've seen the live performances and they're just doing the most basic parts. Maybe it works for them but bands that perform all the bass lines, and that play the ambient parts like Silent Planet for example, just dominate that scene and always will. I don't have much to say about them besides that, just little things that don't really matter, but if they did start to improve their performances and ampted up those vocals, with adding some clarity to them, they'd be topping their genre. I do also feel like the lyrical content is lackluster at best, nothing in their lyrics feels strong enough to evoke emotions. People love music that makes them feel something. Along with having to look up the lyrics in the first place, if you have to google the meaning of a song, its not going to hit you when you listen to it. Everytime I listen to this song particularly, even while knowing what the song is about, I don't feel anything from the song because the lyrics are extremely basic and written to appear subtle, but don't match what the song is trying to provoke. I would even offer to help them write their music if they let me, there's so much potential there yet they're just doing what comes easiest.

    Enjoyed this track a lot more. Always wanted to enjoy Invent Animate as they tick a lot of boxes I SHOULD like. However, only really dug a couple of tracks enough to listen more than once. This is a step in the right direction for me tbf.

      @punkfreak1414 2 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      Nah I think this mix is a step up from the EP. The drums felt so weak and plastic and the guitars were thin on the EP where as this song it seems more gelled together and thicker. That’s my opinion though. Also the EP is one of my favorite things they’ve released
