Forest's bass line in the beginning is the funkiest tech death ever.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who thinks calling it “funky” is the only way to go.
I'm not one for overstatements, generalizations, nor "the most" statements - ........
...but you might just be right about that

Definitely funky 😁
Archspire and First Fragment really bring me back to life
Archspire just needs a better vocalist. I know this isn't popular opinion but their vocalist has held the master musicians back so damn much. Imagine if they had vocals like spawn of possessions or better yet, old school psychroptic.
@@TerminalM193 r u serious? But Oli better that Dennis, and only one vocalist who had better vocal than Oli was Martin Pedersen from Visceral Bleeding.
@@eldiyar4519 Oli does inhales.... Fucking inhales... Acts like a cringe rapper, I could go on and on but alas, music is subjective.
@@TerminalM193 indeed not a very popular opinion lol
@@TerminalM193 bruh archspires lyricisy matches their timings, hard to do. As much as I love ff don't compare them for music's sake
Happiest death metal I've ever listened to
I would almost say this is Power Metal with blast beats
That whammy bar deserves a glass of wine and a cigarette after all that
The snare needs one too hahaha
The base needs a whammy too...although, he doesn't act like he "needs" it, it would still be cool and well used (I'm sure).
That harmonic at the end of Forest's (first) solo. Band stops on a dime. PING. Just, awesome.
Yessss
Thanks for spreading the word! Also, for those who haven't seen it, the video for our first single was uploaded a while back on our label's channel instead of this one. th-cam.com/video/4mU_qLoa3Ds/w-d-xo.html. Enjoy the swing grooves!
Fucking hilarious I have the same Unleash The Archers Matriarch t shirt yo I'm dying laughing yo lol! You guys are ultimate level badass yo !🤘😎🤘🖤🌷😂🎼🎸🥁🎧📣🇨🇦
@@henryleedupuis6917 Our guitarist Nick is filling in on bass for Unleash The Archers! If you get a chance to catch them live, do it!
@@FirstFragmentQC I've seen them live before that's how I've got 3 Unleash The Archers t shirts plus other miscellaneous stuff! Wow he's in other band's too wow!I also have your The Afterthought Ecstasy ep album and Dasein album on bandcamp too and going to buy your new one soon at the beginning of next month yo! Also seen you guys live in Ottawa at Tech Trek Fest yo and it's still holds the candle as the best live metal show ever yo you guys are godly yo!🤘😎🤘🖤🌷🇨🇦🎼🎸🥁🎧📣
@@FirstFragmentQC Can't wait for the new album guys, you and Archspire are my most anticipated albums including The Zenith Passage..
L'attente en valait vraiment la peine! Ça se voit et ça s'entend que vous aimez le travail bien fait \m/
4:11 callback from the opening classical guitar riff. Top tier riff. I love this!
Love that part!!! Love it when acoustic intros are integrated into the rest of the song, and the rest of that solo part is just ethereal :D
I love fretless bass solos so much!! Awesome as always
Hi Sebastiside, I love your cover of tetrastructual minds by vektor
This is the right thing to show to a person who thinks DragonForce is pinnacle intensity
Or any Necrophagist song lol
@@nokturnalreign9887I'll be the first in line to defend Necrophagist's place as the godfathers of techdeath. But First Fragment and Archspire are truly in a tier completely of their own. Like it isn't even really close.
@@jakel7213 I would hope so considering Necrophagist has been defunct since the mid 00's.
Imagine the genre just stood still for 20 years.
@@jakel7213I'd like to throw Allegaeon in this mix as well. Their 2014 album Elements of the Infinite is god tier tech death.
This shit's so good, it's enough to make a grown man cry... calisse!!
Since SoP retired, First Fragment have taken the baton as my favorite techdeath band pretty well. Such a lovely tune!
Same.
Same, they became the Apex Predator of Tech Death now
@@8man943 indeed as well as archspire. But SoP were the greatest
@Sir Paul, Spawn of Possession, friend.
@Sir Paul spawn of possession
Ive watched this countless times and I still get the chills
5:15 this is the single coolest transition in any song I've ever heard. I listen to this song every now and then and remember that I suck at bass... but want to get better lmao. Forest is who I wanna be when I grow up as a bassist
I've watched and listened to this a million times, but this is the first time that I noticed the little harmonic note snuck in at the end of Forest's solo (3:29) and it's little details like this that show how amazing of song writers the fellas at First Fragment are. It's not just technical wankery for the sake of it, it's very well written, very musical technical wankery. I love it, this album is so good.
Absolute perfection. Can't wait for the entire album.
saaaaame
When the hell is it coming out?!?
@@TerminalM193 Like 10 months ago lmao. October 31, 2021.
Маэстро просто! Низкий поклон за творчество и музыку! Привет из России!!!
I KNEW I recognized that bass style. Beyond Creation's The Aura
WOW. That was SERIOUSLY impressive. A technical masterwork, for sure.
This song cracks me up. My brain cannot compute how incredibly technical and fun this is that it defaults to laughter. Thank you for making such awesome toons, they bring me much joy and pleasure 🤘🏻
Forest solo on this one is amazing already been listening to it in loop. So glad to see it played for real so early, thx for that video
It's playthroughs like these that inspire me to become a better musician everyday! 🙌
This track is FUN!
You just doesn't avoid dancing with this. This is Amazing.
These bouncy swing riffs you guys have been writing like at 2:50 are so fucking cool, feel like I've not really heard anything like that in this kind of music before. Wicked stuff!
🖤🖤🖤
Beyond impressed and inspired!!
Beyond creation
I must have watched this 200 times! Love it! Make music forever please, thanks.
Jesus, this song just gets BETTER AND BETTER!
I clicked immediately! I love these playthroughs
Flawless Victory
Love that the guitarist is wearing an "unleash the archers" t shirt 🤘
This is so sick without vocals get to hear everything perfect
Dude, you are such a crybaby,
@@anushgunner9164 Who are you? lol
True with the current vocalist I prefer First Fragment instrumental.
Nice to see that I am not the only one
@@robert_sylvester Ty i feel.
I wish I could like this video Everytime I watch it
the bass is insane, incredible
Insane Groove!
Amazing. Beautiful. Brutal
OMFSay10! This is so frickin awesome amd fresh sounding! Love the Watch Tower shirt! So good to hear a Spawning of a Possessed Martyr written in Spastic Inc...
🔥🎸🔥 wow super awesome 🤘
This song is so much fun, I was smiling through the whole thing.
They played all of my favorite notes in the right sequence.
I had the pleasure to talk to forest for a school project. incredibly nice guy!
Such skillfull execution. You guys have a real flair for performance. Hope to see you guys play this one live. Sounding real good.
Forest is so uber talented.....
That's the coolest video I've watched all year.
Help. I can't stop watching this..
Hands down, Gloire Éternelle is indeed one of the best sounding metal albums this year. Amazing sound, amazing song, amazing album!
No words to describe how I feel watching these guys.. Absolute perfection.
Просто монстры!!!!
Oh yeah!
This is hands down Your absolutely best piece :D. So fun, groovy, yet still metal!
Incredible... Once started u can't pause it. U have to finish it's do beautiful and perfect. Incredible. Both melodics and technique are sublime 🤤

Guitargument... The future of metal🤘
Got this in my recommended. Best thing I've seen in my feed 🔥🔥🔥
Greetings from Greece
Lovely stuff! ❤
Bill Bailey on guitar never ceases to amaze me
Dammit guys this is omafkingawd delicious! Just couldn't stay awake for the drop those 5½-6 hours ago. Woke up now and realised why I should've stayed awake. On the third watch right now and have paused to write this.
It feels like EVERYONE (including invisible Nick) is unleashing their superpowers sequentially. My soul leaps with joy!!
When those afterburners kick in at 5:12 holy hell that catchy groove hook to finish....just leaves me wanting MORE of the song!!
Guys, please consider putting out an instrumental version of the album as well y'all. Pleeeease 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Salut from India. 🍻🍻🍻
Every single solo is amazing especially that last one before the final bass solo comes in. Those tapped harmonics (if I remember right, that's what they're called) at the end are an amazing touch
This is fucking unbelievable...................
what a beasts. This is playing to another level.
They played this perfectly live. And I mean perfectly.
Yesss! Super nice work.
TA-BAR-NAK que ça torche!
That was amazing GD!!!
Thank God for this......flawless players
absolutely jaw-dropping how you make billions of notes memorable and danceable
sublime
probably one of the most impressive songs of the past decade...
The amount of talent in this blows my mind 🙌🏻
Also if anyone knows the band tshirt forests got on, let me know please 🙏🏻
Magistrale!!!!!! 🤘 💯 🖤
I absolutely love that bass tone. I cant get enough.
this really is what ever baby boy needs to hear out the womb make it a certified man
i' just wow
I can’t wait for their next album. It’s going to be wild.
This is one of few songs that makes me double check if I'm not running YT videos in 1.25x
Just learnt my basic open chords on acoustic and already dreaming of playing in metal band. You giys just discouraged me
Don't give up! I was in your shoes once. If I can make music like this, so can you!
Love this song !
absolutely next level. love this, so fruity and fun
Beautiful 😍😍
Musicality, groove, and sheer technicality. This was my AOTY 2021. Thanks for putting out inspiring brutality.
Nice Shirt. Watchtower forever!
Nothing I ever do will be as perfect
Excellent
Perfect, sublime. 🤘🏻👍🏻
This is in tough competition for greatest tech death song of all time for me, against “apparition” by spawn of possession and “stabwound” by necrophagist. Just mind blowing
Whole song is amazing but 4:10 onwards , it's just brilliant
\m/...
this is fire!
Genialidad pura disfruto mucho este video
What an absolute masterpiece
What the hell did I just witnesses hahaha!?!?! You guys are crazy talented... that was definitely a god tier performance, keep up the amazing work!!
I’m loving funky forest 🌳
Muita perfeição! Som incrível.... parabéns.
The Cacophony of technical death metal.
My face is still melting and I can't make it stop
maaan, what a prescision on all the string instruments. definitive masters on their work
Pure skills 🤘perfect my favourite playthrough
Super Melodic.
Good stuff.
You guys are quickly becoming one of my favorite bands. Never stop experimenting with new sounds always progress, you guys are amazing 🤘🤘
It's the pinch harmonic on a left-handed fretless 6-string bass for me. Y'all have my attention.
This and Gorod is all I need
