Whoever they got to replace Jamie was always going to have a tough time of it... He was/is one of the greatest metal vocalists I've ever heard. He was incredible live, his ability to switch between punishing lows and beautiful, powerful cleans was unbelievable. Having said that this new guy isn't half bad, his screams need more power and some more diversity but his cleans are pretty awesome. It's good to have you guys back.
Kaan Tasan. Wow. If anyone hasn't listened to his previous work with No Concequence then they will have no idea of the brilliance he is capable of! Decent song, looking forward to hearing the album.
Man its so depressing to see jamie graham leaving the band. I've been following that guy since he was in sylosis years and years ago when conclusion of an age came out. The guy is a godly vocalist and sylosis took a hit when they lost him but then I stumbled onto heart of a coward because of jamie and I was so stoked to see everything they've accomplished. Now I see he's leaving heart of a coward and maybe metal altogether and all I can say is its not going to be the same without those amazing vocals...FUCK
I honestly wish Jamie never left Sylosis. Conclusion of an Age was such a good album and I think the band would have made some more amazing albums had he stayed on.
In spite of how good was Jamie, when the band member leaves - everyone have to move on and move forward. I believe and hope that new album will be as good as previous ones. Keep the good work guys, we love you!
You know, there is just no way to get Jamie back, he left the band, it was his decision, I immediately understood, that there would never be someone as tough of a vocalist as him, but what is better? No HOAC at all or HOAC with another vocalist, who may not sound like Jamie, but still has some skills. So please stop blaming the band, this song isn't bad, the vocals aren't bad. Don't compare him with Jamie, and just enjoy their music!
The cleans are pretty tight, but Jamie had an insane range and intensity with his screams so it's hard to get down with this dude. Still excited either way for more releases
Love it! I just love the fact that you guys are back, and this new song is a killer! I can't deny though that I miss Jamies vocal alot. Can't wait to hear the new vocalists low's.
I can imagine how difficult it was for HoC to replace Jamie. This song is awesome and the new vocalist is very promising. I can't wait to hear him on a full length!
I get what people are saying about you can't replace Jamie. My favorite Sylosis album is still the 1st with Jamie, never been the same without him. The metal elite will quickly ascend from the woodwork and say Josh is better. Jamie is one of the best metal lyricists I've ever heard.
Honestly really love this song and the new vocalist. People are giving him a hard time because he's not Jamie. Jamie was an amazing vocalist, and definitely hard to replace. But, listen to this song with fresh ears, forget Jamie...this is a banger in its own right and the new guy is great. Album of the year on its way
Just seen Heart of A Coward live with Kaan and it was fucking phenomenal. He's done a great job and he like all the Hoac boys are fucking awesome guys.
Just listened to Nightmare live at resurrection fest again. Jamie is beyond compare and sends chills down your spine. Like the new tune though and it is a new chapter so has to be different. Excited to hear the rest of the album!
Have none of you dudes heard No Consequence? This isnt some fresh kid that got lucky and joined an established band. This dude has chops and hes been around for awhile now. I think he sounds fine.
after 5 months of listening to “Collapse” i can say this guy is a new breath for the band that wasn’t bad. I love the band and love this singer. Long live HoaC!!!
Pandora popped this on and i was like whaaaaat who is this? So im checking you guys out now and I'm sad to say it took 3+ years for my ears to hear this sick ass band wtf lol
I'm waiting for the FATALITY to pop up and Liu Kang to come flying down from above right into those spikes. Sick song, looking forward to more. Always hard to replace vocalists that fans grow to love but I enjoy the new vocalist and think he will do great!
Usual comments I see... Whenever a bandmember gets replaced he's going to get flak how he's not like the previous member. Of course he's not the same, he's not a clone. Stop being emo bitches and grow up. Jamie made a choice, the band made a choice to go on with this vocalist, that's life and life goes on. Keep it up metal brothers! Heart of a Coward rules \m/
The new vocals are amazing! I don't know why everyone is hating on them?! He puts so much time and effort into this. Things change! They won't we exactly the same. Jamie made the choice to leave. Kaan isn't Jamie! He is a different person so of course it will sound different. Things change. Deal with it.
I was really worried for whoever was replacing Jamie. Panic over this guys kicks people’s dicks off! Class voice and a brilliant new song! Nice one boys.
I’m liking this a lot it was always going to be hard to replace Jamie cause he’s just on another level but this guy is pretty damn good as well. I would have liked to here him mix the highs with some lows as well but his cleans are awesome as well
I’m just going to have to think of this as a different band lmao. Jamie is in my opinion easily one of if not the best metal vocalist of all time. Miss you man!!!
i was totally confused at first cos i dont really follow the band, but i loved hope and hindrance (especially around a girl of course) because of the vocals aha. i like the cleans too, but taking jamies place seems....tough. excited to see hear his full range :)
Maaan Ive been sitting on this for a day and listened a couple times and I'm still not sold at all....HOAC have been one of my favourite bands since I stumbled across their EP on myspace back in the day - Based off this song along it sounds like an entirely different band. BUT I'm hoping I eat all these words soon and am proved so wrong..... people change and sounds develop that's to be expected, just hoping it doesn't deviate too far from what made us all know and love them so much. Im not the biggest fan of that style of vocals I think thats whats throwing me so hard.
He's definetily trying to live up to the way Jamie sang and the way that the band have their style in the music, and It's always hard being a replacement because everyone is different. But he's killing it tho!!!!
The vocals need more range, its very monotone and dull. Although the chorus was good. I tried to ignore that this was Heart of a Coward to give it a judgement based on the song itself rather than expecting a certain style or whatnot. Its not bad but there is potential to be so much better i think. Main fault is laying with the vocals being so monotone but also the breaks sound a bit lacking. Needs more of a lower umph!! Will hold my breathe for the next track!
Музло оч годное. новый вокалист не так, конечно, поёт, как прошлый, мне безусловно жаль, что тот ушёл из HOAC, но это, блять, пиздец годно звучит (хотя вокалист, мне кажется, не особо представляет, что такое скрим)

It's good to have you guys back.
Andy Quinton I agree with everything you’ve said here dude
Spot on
Agreed with everything. Jamie is a massive miss but the quality of the cleans make me have high hopes for the future.
Andy Quinton Id been wishing for them to come back with Ashe OHara but well. This guy is great too.
agreed.. the new guy is good. beautiful cleans, screaming also nice, but when u re "competing" with jamies screaming habilities its hard to stand out
Good to have you back lads, welcome Kaan.
Can’t wait to see how he performs the old stuff. Big shoes to fill but impressed with this track.
Nathan Herbertson Big boots to fill. Jamie did growls.
Very underrated breakdown. That smacks hard
I LOVE IT!!! I don’t see why people are hating, this guy can sing!!!!
I agree!!!! Kaan is so good!
Yall are awesome for putting the lyrics in the description!
Awesome! Really stoked for the upcoming album. ☺️
New fan here, don’t know all the drama but this sounds so damn good. You can feel the emotion in the song , in the vocals. Always a banger at the gym.
Kaan Tasan. Wow. If anyone hasn't listened to his previous work with No Concequence then they will have no idea of the brilliance he is capable of! Decent song, looking forward to hearing the album.
I'm so glad these guys are back. So glad.
Kaan you've smashed it, and the song is also excellent guys. Such an epic chorus and the breakdown crushes. Nice one!

I honestly wish Jamie never left Sylosis. Conclusion of an Age was such a good album and I think the band would have made some more amazing albums had he stayed on.
Money Authority Agreed. I’ve got all of Sylosis catalog but damn that first album was a masterpiece.
In spite of how good was Jamie, when the band member leaves - everyone have to move on and move forward.
I believe and hope that new album will be as good as previous ones.
Keep the good work guys, we love you!
really like the new vocalist, great singing voice and his growls are more of a hardcore shout at times. really looking forward to this album
You know, there is just no way to get Jamie back, he left the band, it was his decision, I immediately understood, that there would never be someone as tough of a vocalist as him, but what is better? No HOAC at all or HOAC with another vocalist, who may not sound like Jamie, but still has some skills. So please stop blaming the band, this song isn't bad, the vocals aren't bad. Don't compare him with Jamie, and just enjoy their music!
Its impossible to not compare with Jamie, when he's the replacement
God damn! What a song! I've been listening (AND headbanging) to this all day long! Can't wait for the new album!
Proud to see Kaan playing with them! Not only a super talented singer but also one of the coolest guys in metal! Congrats! :D
The cleans are pretty tight, but Jamie had an insane range and intensity with his screams so it's hard to get down with this dude. Still excited either way for more releases
Enjoyed this. Will listen again. Cannot wait to hear where else this voice can take the guys.
Great work chaps. Good luck Kaan, see you on your next tour!!!
2:52 is when the vocalist will blow your mind - congrats on that - love it!
Love it! I just love the fact that you guys are back, and this new song is a killer! I can't deny though that I miss Jamies vocal alot.
Can't wait to hear the new vocalists low's.
I can imagine how difficult it was for HoC to replace Jamie. This song is awesome and the new vocalist is very promising. I can't wait to hear him on a full length!
This music video really grasps the energy this song has! Well done boys, this is fantastic
Heavy AF!
Melo in the chorus & killer riffs, this is a lethal combo! |m|
And 3:38 gave me chills!
xTerronga same
Love it! Melodies and groove, can't wait for the album. King Kaan!
I just found this band, i gotta say they are FKING AWESOME KEEP IT UP!
This is doooooooooooope, great job guys!!
Great music! I'm shocked you come from Milton as Hacktivist witch i was found first. Big up!
I saw these guys opening for Any Given Day in Munich. This song was the one. I love the chorus. So catchy.
Oh my gosh, so happy to see them alive!

Awesome! Loving the vocals.
HUGE !!

We won't collapse.we are a metal army.you men vent incredibly
Excited to hear the new chapter in the evolution of HOAC! This sounds great ! Can't wait to hear him crank out 'Hollow'!
Have none of you dudes heard No Consequence? This isnt some fresh kid that got lucky and joined an established band. This dude has chops and hes been around for awhile now. I think he sounds fine.
after 5 months of listening to “Collapse” i can say this guy is a new breath for the band that wasn’t bad. I love the band and love this singer. Long live HoaC!!!

I CANT STOP HEADBANGING HOLYYY SH1T
Good job boiiiizzz !

Kaan isn't Jamie! He is a different person so of course it will sound different. Things change. Deal with it.
Sounds awesome guys! Liking the mortal combat setting too 🤘🏼😝
love it so much
I was really worried for whoever was replacing Jamie. Panic over this guys kicks people’s dicks off! Class voice and a brilliant new song! Nice one boys.
good choice! nice vocal!
I’m liking this a lot it was always going to be hard to replace Jamie cause he’s just on another level but this guy is pretty damn good as well. I would have liked to here him mix the highs with some lows as well but his cleans are awesome as well
One of my fav song now
I loved it. Voice just adds other vibe to the hoac instrumental, its weird the first listening, but sounds sick. And that chorus entering is epic
sounds awesome :-)
Brutal. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
I’m just going to have to think of this as a different band lmao. Jamie is in my opinion easily one of if not the best metal vocalist of all time. Miss you man!!!
I want to hear more, this is really good. Is there a new album?
Didn't like the old vocalists voice...but this guy is alright. Gonna buy the album
Great song! \m/
Brought the fucking heat!!! This has been my gym song this whole week !!!
Very powerful, I like it :)
When Comeback Kid meets Architects !Good song and the new vocalist isn't bad at all !
i was totally confused at first cos i dont really follow the band, but i loved hope and hindrance (especially around a girl of course) because of the vocals aha. i like the cleans too, but taking jamies place seems....tough. excited to see hear his full range :)
This sounds Crispin!
aggressive... I dig it 👌👌
Fukin Epic Track Guys well done
Maaan Ive been sitting on this for a day and listened a couple times and I'm still not sold at all....HOAC have been one of my favourite bands since I stumbled across their EP on myspace back in the day - Based off this song along it sounds like an entirely different band.

Im not the biggest fan of that style of vocals I think thats whats throwing me so hard.
Good to have you boys back.
Great song. I'd say you .... nailed it. Huehuehue.
Roger MYFHC good to see a fellow MYFHC member on this!
He's definetily trying to live up to the way Jamie sang and the way that the band have their style in the music, and It's always hard being a replacement because everyone is different. But he's killing it tho!!!!
Well piss my knickers
2:39 my favorite part
That chorus though 🔥
Best metal ban I ever see in my life
They're playing in the Mortal Kombat Pit!!!! #Fatality
The vocals need more range, its very monotone and dull. Although the chorus was good.
I tried to ignore that this was Heart of a Coward to give it a judgement based on the song itself rather than expecting a certain style or whatnot. Its not bad but there is potential to be so much better i think. Main fault is laying with the vocals being so monotone but also the breaks sound a bit lacking. Needs more of a lower umph!!
Will hold my breathe for the next track!
This bangs , kaan is a G 💪🏾
This song makes me cry of emotion holy shit
Музло оч годное. новый вокалист не так, конечно, поёт, как прошлый, мне безусловно жаль, что тот ушёл из HOAC, но это, блять, пиздец годно звучит (хотя вокалист, мне кажется, не особо представляет, что такое скрим)
