Darko gives me the feelings metalcore first gave me with the extreme contrast between heavy and clean with the electronic elements. Obviously this is on another level, but it still feels fresh and exciting. I'm happy metal seems to be in a good place and has no signs of slowing down despite what some people think. 🤘😈🔥
"I'm happy metal seems to be in a good place " You don't know a thing about Metal if you think this shit has any impact in any thriving metal scene. Scenecore will never be metal, no matter how long these hot topic kids keep playing their riffless shit.
@@danny-d0rito if this was your first, go back and listen to their last release Shanghai. I use these two for my finishing sprint when cycling and just hope I don't pass out on the finish line lol
@@anap3333 saying something is 2.0 isnt disrespectful to either of them. 2.0 just means new version and even though tom is not a newer vocalist than Will, Will did the "cool" vocal stuff first. I don't know if you're into video games but (imo) call of duty bo2 and bo3 are equally good for different reasons even though one has a higher number
@@percival5697 I'm not saying one is better than the other, I'm saying they are way different vocalists with different styles, you can't reduce everything they both do to "he makes weird noises, he also does, they must be the same."
I think I was coming at all this from a very different perspective than some of you. My comment had nothing no to do with viewers’ respect or lack thereof. I just think simple ignorance can be funny; as someone who usually always goes back over a band’s discog from start to finish when I get into them, it’s just ironic in a funny way to me that big fans of Lorna Shore and/or Will don’t know the history there (to be clear: that’s not a judgment on my part, I could not care less whether or not anyone else enjoys music the way I do). Really I was just having a laugh and hoping maybe some Will fans would see a comment like mine and go “wtf?!” and then check out LS’s early stuff, even if they don’t end up liking it.
I watched the video this morning and was like “Holy shit, Nik is gonna lose his mind. He better do a reaction video for this”. Darko is just pure insanity and I’m here for it.
Not comparing the two sounds, but when I listen to this I feel like I did when Danza II came out. Bewildered, intrigued, ready to keep listening to it.
Darko another banger brother 🤘🔥 . reminds me of my brain when waking up an some one instantly is like let's have a hour long chat with no coffee just waking up . 😂 or the bad summery of devil may cry by maxor . the part V is like Nero my bird is crashing . 😂 damn windows vista .
i think it's interesting how this kind of metal have lots of similarities with other genres like rap or electronic, i see some kind of mainstream attraction in music, even from genres that i wouldn't expect. i also think that this is a beautiful thing, and this darko song fucking smash ass, it reminded me a little of the tones switch of sleep token. thanks for the laughter, Nik!
I was dying at this LAMO!. And come on people, widen your catalogs, theres a lot more than dayseeker and sleep token. Like folks can only remember music from the last 2 or 3 years haha
they could have straight poppy hooks on top of all the heaviness and get super huge if they really wanted. such a good combo imo, wish they would lean more into it. still loved the song tho 🔥🔥
In America we have geek squad but they’re really unreliable depending on where you live. Just find like a local computer shop with an old guy who knows his shit
Metal in 2024 gonna be a bunch of left handed dudes playing upside down 9 strings, weird noises and The Summoning-like soft parts and I'm ready for it.
Funny thing is I took a lesson from Tom before and he said his "tunnel throat sound" is just his fry scream. He said he does a goblin style fry scream and it makes that disgusting sound that's almost like a tunnel throat. I had the misconception thinking he was doing tunnels before but he said its all just fry. I would highly suggest taking a personal lesson from him if he has the time.
I'm mostly surprised that a band named after Donnie Darko would take this long to release a song called Bunny Suit.
I’m still waiting for the jake gyllenhaal b-side
Why r u wearing that stupid human suit❤
Tom’s angelic voice juxtaposed with sounds that could blow up the earth is why Darko stays on top
I love Darko but was that actually live? come the fuck on now, i need to see an actual raw performance to believe it
@KOOLEE88 It's hard to do a real live performance when Josh is on drums, guitar, and keyboard all at once
@@thomaspattison1397 I would trust this man to be able to do it somehow
Angelic vocals is so amazing and beautiful.
went from summoning a demon to serenading it. Then sending it back to hell
I watched how Tom went to Josh in a penguin style like 10 times straight, such a gem lmao 4:38
My drummer plays guitar upside down too 😂. Similar style also.
its life
Caleb's editing had me DEAD at the rapid fire lyrics part 😂😂
I was gonna say the same thing, it was perfect!
Fr fr, Caleb is a god tier editor for Nik's funny ass reactions

Totally agree. Darko has just propelled my love for metalcore into the depths of hell 🔥
"I'm happy metal seems to be in a good place " You don't know a thing about Metal if you think this shit has any impact in any thriving metal scene.

Who hurt you? @@rodrigoperez244
That playstation 2 loading screen vibe got me.
Thaaankkk youuu I was sitting here screaming “PLAYSTATIONNN222“ but nobody else mentioned it 😂😂😂
This is like 'what the fuck just happened' metal. Great work. I'm floored
disregard-music is lovely. these are the mf´rs who heard of rules, and started laughing. they write what they want to, not what they´re "assumed" to
Did you check out fromjoy’s album last year? Similar “wtf-core” vibes 😂
People in chat acting like Sleep Token invented mixing clean vocals in a heavy song, brain dead. This song rips.
Yeah man, it's weird AF. I'm a huge ST fan, but people acting like genre mashing hasn't been a thing confuse me.
@@TriFekt And on top of that, Darko have been doing unexpected parts like that in some their songs since they started.
periphery over here getting disrespected-they're the masters of that. but NGL these guys seem cool first time hearing them!
@@danny-d0rito if this was your first, go back and listen to their last release Shanghai. I use these two for my finishing sprint when cycling and just hope I don't pass out on the finish line lol
Sleep token has many stans.
But I mean it's fucking sleep token ofc they do.
Synthwave mixed with Deathcore is something I didn't know I wanted or needed. Gunship and Darko US collab, this would be peak.
HOLY FUCK if this ever happens I will just call it quits with listening to music and die a happy man.
Check Perturbator's It Came With the Water EP, or Gost Wrapped In Wax.
Gunship and Pertubator are amazing
I love gunship
This transported me to so many places. I discovered them through Ryo being a guest vocalist on hyperkill and have been hooked ever since!
their more chill/clean songs have always been some of my favorite by them. I LOVE THEY MIXED IT TOGETHER WITH THE CRAZY SHIT
I need a whole album like this and Shanghai
Well that song is a ride. I have no idea where it's going but i'm all in
Darko are one of my favourite bands. They just never seize to amaze! Bangerrrrrr!!!
*cease lmao
aint listened to these guys before. this song made me feel all of the emotions known to man...
and then at least 3 new ones as of yet undiscovered.
welcome to the fam - this band will ear fuck you lol. If you haven't listen to Sleep Token, please do, also.
I wonder if the comments saying stuff like “Will Ramos 2.0” know Tom was the founding vocalist of Lorna Shore 😂
Calling him will 2.0 is just disrespectful for both of them

I mean, the “Ooh-Wah-Ah-Ah-Ah” from Down With The Sickness has been a meme for almost a quarter century at this point.
I watched the video this morning and was like “Holy shit, Nik is gonna lose his mind. He better do a reaction video for this”. Darko is just pure insanity and I’m here for it.
I absolutely love the breakdown at the end, that offbeat feeling where tom is only screaming on the “and”’s is so awesome from a theory perspective
4:55 giving Bilmuri with those cleans and I’m loving it
Needs more THICC but it's there
Side note playing a right handed 9 sting lefty is fucking legendary
Their live studio performance is masterpieces
Darko has become my favorite band and this is exactly why. This song is just amazing. Imo, this is one of their best songs.
That chorus is soooooo fucking Dayseeker, dude. Like that sounds JUST like fucking Rory came through Tom and they did 50 seconds of Dayseeker lmao
i wish that transition to the cleans was... cleaner and longer it was so good.
Common Caleb editing W
Absolutely hear that classic Slipknot influence at 3:42 w/ those turn-table scratches
It’s so wild seeing Josh on guitar, saw spite live last May, he was crazy on drums live.
The lyrics are pretty great on this song too
I'm living Lorna Shore vibes with his vocals in Darko... Damn I miss him with LS
I am now dubbing Darko as Nu-Death. Hip hop elements but harder and weirder.
This genre of metal should be "Donniedarko-core"
yes please
Chills, throughout the entire thing. That use of synth pads was beautiful too.
This song has a lot of Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza influence in it
Tom is easily one of the best vocalist in metal today. I loved everything about this song. 🤘😱
Wickedly creative. The stark mood change is as o t t as possible, as expected!
And i thought i would miss The Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza.
The Deathcore that Darkho Us made is fuckin wesome I love Tom's voice
Gives me big Unbreakable - Veil of Maya vibes and I'm here for it
Hey Nik, have you heard Ameonna yet? It's a new project with Alex, Pablo, and Jacob from old CG. They just released their first ep recently
6:20 An editing masterclass!😆
Gotta love the chat.
EXTREME VOCALS? IS RAMOS?!
Soft expressing break? IS SLEEP TOKEN?!
There's more than two acts, gang.
I promise.
I like Darko's call back to Donnie Darko with this song.
Not comparing the two sounds, but when I listen to this I feel like I did when Danza II came out. Bewildered, intrigued, ready to keep listening to it.
Calm part reminded me of Come Home. Love those type of songs.
The editing on this video is hilarious. 😂😊
Love how they go from one extreme to another. Interesting Thanks Nik
Darko in 30 seconds please, and then a full song :)
Dude, this is my first time hearing about this band, I am a fan!!!
can we appreciate how Nik always releases bangers.😋😎🤓
Yo this blew my fucking mind. Toms cleans are actually fucking insane
Ive been calling this a Dayseeker song jokingly because of that clean section it sounds just like them hahaha i fucking love this band
I need a Tom Barber/Will Ramos clean vocal project.
PS, give your editor a raise 👏
This be amazing
DUDE that’s exactly what I was thinking
Follow Cigarette Smoke, Baby J's new project where he sings
@@AshToneAudio Who's Baby J?
@@BB-BA55akaMR-BLEGHBaby J is the guitarist/drummer/programmer you're watching

I absolutely love how Darko merch sells out instantly because of us lol
Your Editor is on point 😂
6:27 absolutely lost my shit lol
Best song since dragon chaser for sure 🔥🔥🔥
Lets just say it already its fuckin beautiful man its fucking beautiful - I hope DARKO really does more singing on new album
This is great, @Nik, you need to do a video on how to DARKO in 30 seconds
Tom é incrível, eu o amo...
Darko truly stands out in a very crowded space. Love these guys
i think it's interesting how this kind of metal have lots of similarities with other genres like rap or electronic, i see some kind of mainstream attraction in music, even from genres that i wouldn't expect.
i also think that this is a beautiful thing, and this darko song fucking smash ass, it reminded me a little of the tones switch of sleep token.
thanks for the laughter, Nik!
If I ever heard this on the radio and this blew up with people I be a happy man
@@mentaltelepathy24 maybe we'll have to wait some more time for that, but i agree with you!
I think this put me onto Darko
Your editor had way too much fun at 6:26
this song went so stupid hard its probably my favorite track of the yearrrrr
I don't know how but your growl in the end of "we do fun metal things HERE" gave me an intense tinnitus.
Love it. Rampage is more my style but Shanghai grew on me and this song kicks fucking ass.
also, just realized I have the black and white version of Baby J's Court Royales. fucking dope shoes. minimalist. comfy. cleaaan 😎
Chealsea Grin/Darko are always on the main playlist.
Soooooooo gooooood more of this Darko all day more of this. fuck .so good
Nick imitating him perfectly and immediately saying I don’t know how he does that shit
"they just.. launched Windows 97..?" lmfaooooooooooooooo
I was dying at this LAMO!. And come on people, widen your catalogs, theres a lot more than dayseeker and sleep token. Like folks can only remember music from the last 2 or 3 years haha
This is WindowsXPcore - BSOD into blue skies and liminal green fields
I kinda wanna see Chino from Deftones do guests on a Darko song. Think they’d suit his cleans perfectly!
We need how to darko us in 30 seconds
That montage on the breakdown tho
Those gauges are essential to the vocal mix
@NikNoturnal This xhit is so good man. Nothin' released on Last year is like this!
Tom did the tunnel throat zombie noise shit before in the final section of Evolving
at 6:23 you just looks like Fry from Futurama that's so funny
Fckin love darko and tom, it just hits so hard ( good for gym too ) but i am sorry i must ... VILDHJARTA MENTIONNED GRWAAAAAAAAAH
Love this edit. And I love this song.
This keeps surprising my brain. I like it.
In america we take computers to geek squad at beat buy, or if youre lucky to be around 1, micro center
This video is the reason that I can listen to nothing but Darko US for like a month. My friends and family blame it on Nic.
they could have straight poppy hooks on top of all the heaviness and get super huge if they really wanted. such a good combo imo, wish they would lean more into it. still loved the song tho 🔥🔥
I'm not sure what the fuck this genre would be, but it's a pure form of whatever it is
I would love to hear Tom and Taylor doing cleans together, cuz they both can sang sang.
My Guy needs to listen to fallingwithscissors new EP. That shit is truly insane
In America we have geek squad but they’re really unreliable depending on where you live. Just find like a local computer shop with an old guy who knows his shit
Metal in 2024 gonna be a bunch of left handed dudes playing upside down 9 strings, weird noises and The Summoning-like soft parts and I'm ready for it.
Funny thing is I took a lesson from Tom before and he said his "tunnel throat sound" is just his fry scream. He said he does a goblin style fry scream and it makes that disgusting sound that's almost like a tunnel throat. I had the misconception thinking he was doing tunnels before but he said its all just fry. I would highly suggest taking a personal lesson from him if he has the time.
Modern deathcore GOATS and you cannot change my mind
I wasn't watching and thought I'd missed something and you threw on a Sleep Token track halfway through this vid 😂
Dude, if they do a whole set like this I'll watch it everyday for years haha
4:30 thought my PS2 came back to haunt me 🤣
At this point I guess it’s that kind of hairstyle that gives deathcore singers power
Promts also dropped a banger nik. Its called sun eater.
Darko setting the standard
This is basically "don't let them know your next move" in music form....
First track reminds me of The Browning
