Drummer Trey Celaya commented on the release with Wall of Sound; ‘Shade Astray’ is a confessional realization that a relationship has run its course. It admits that it fell far from the ideal they had put on a pedestal, leaving both their ego and the relationship shattered when things are broken beyond repair. At this crossroads, the loss you fear the most is exactly what has to happen. Someone stronger than you has to be able to walk away when you are self-sabotaging. And the only wisdom to be gained is the knowledge that you are not the savior. There’s nothing to be salvaged and you must accept failure and let failure be your teacher. It’s a lesson only learned in solitude.
I had a feeling. I started listening to this band and song at first because of the guitar work and grew to enjoy their hard work. Then I noticed how deep the stories they do tell. Amazing band.
yeah i hope so, i will see them in november in berlin, i am obly there for the supporting bands. I would do everything if Invent Animate and Currents would do a duo headline tour in europe.
The most spiritually in tune band out there right now. I can't even put into words how special this band is to me, and what it's done for my life. Just simply blown away, and feeling less alone in this universe.
@@Lumerlume11 Maybe you don't believe in a spirit or have ever experienced such an idea, that's entirely okay. To put it in materialist terms, this band is incredible, they make life far less miserable, they're incredibly talented, they're going to keep accomplishing amazing things.
Invent, Animate outdoing themselves once again. This is amazing and pretty different from Sun Sleeps/Never Was, but it's still SO good. I swear this is one of the bands that, once when i'm old, will make me look back and think of all the good moments in my life i lived while enjoying this band's beautiful music. Invent, Animate's music has helped me through a lot, after break ups and deaths from my relatives, their music still helps me to keep pushing forward and going strong. Artists who make you feel that way are unique, and Invent surely is unique. Thanks for the beautiful music guys, you've done it once again.
Couldn’t agree more. There’s a ton of great bands/music out there but nothing hits me in the same way IA does. And while a slightly different flavor from Everchanger all the way to now, they all manage to hit in that unique way. Truly masters at their craft. Production on this is just massssive too.
@@Peter_Velardi You're on point, buddy, and i couldn't agree more. Their sound from album to album is so different, but whenever you hear their stuff you instantly recognize it and it makes you think 'hey, that's IA!'. I love this band, been a fan from this band since 2016. When Ben left the band i was so sad, i thought they were gonna break up. And then Marcus comes in and absolutely SLAYS with his vocals. I'd dare to say their music is even better now, you can tell the evolution from Stillworld to now.
@@СаняСаня-к2б Thanks for the tip, buddy, i already did that earlier today but thanks anyway. I'm just appreciating music over here, nothing bad about that btw.
Fun fact: Invent Animate is for sure the best and the most unique band in the whole metalcore scene right now. Can't wait for the album P.S. This song definitely made my day
my walls are covered in IA wall flags, closet is packed with their merch, skin inked with an IA tattoo, and heart full of their music that i will carry with me for the rest of my days. balled my eyes out to this song. this band is a huge part of my life and a constant source of joy and comfort. ia forever
Dude! I have the stillworld and Greyview flags on the wall, I've got a few shirts, and I'm getting ready to get my own spin on the stillworld album art tatted. This band makes me feel a way that no other artist can. They've been special from the beginning.
This is a change for the bands sound imo. But they still maintain that wonderful sense of atmosphere and ambient melancholy that no other band is able to attain. I love it!
@@yash9410503314 Thall is strongly associated with Swedish metal band Vildjharta (originated even I think). Basically a description of their sound which is incredibly unique; heavy atmosphere, very low, polyrhythmic, lots of octave jumps/bends. See Dagger: th-cam.com/video/KnaClnVnj_c/w-d-xo.html. Honestly, genuinely surprised if Invent Animate guys weren't adjacently inspired by them. masstaden remains one of my favorite front to back listens, the artwork and story that accompanies the music is very good too.
I’m sorry but no ur wrong and before y’all come at me I know that someone’s taste in music is all subjective for the individual but ur still wrong invent animate still fucking slaps harder than my dad when he slaps my mom tho
Not one to leave YT comments, but I had to on this one. This is so close to perfection for me. Absolute beautiful track and its clear Invent deserves to be at the top of metalcore. Well done boys!
They've gripped my heart in a way they hadn't done before and haven't let go since the release of The Sun Sleeps, As If It Never Was. This song further tightens the hold.
I love this band so damn much. They bring me so many different emotions and feelings when listening and that is true art. New single will be on repeat for a long time. Much love Invent, I’ll always be your biggest fan ♥️
Been a fan since the Waves and Wolf Skin days and this band just continues to out do themselves with each album. Its insane how IA can blend so many elements of modern metalcore so effortlessly at this point. This song hit all the sweet spots from Marcus soft cleans , to the lows, which all seem to have improved alot. He definitely found his sound in the band. Instrumentals are great as per usual, with the little subtle groove shifts , unpredictable breakdown patterns, random techy sounds/licks, while managing to balance that out with some classic post hard-core elements. If the rest of the album is on this level of quality its definitely going to set a new standard for entire metalcore genre.
Love how the highs get cut off by the lows so quick like a monster suppressing its own emotions and drowning it with heaviness. As always, Invent Animate never ceases to inspire
I have been playing this non stop for almost a week, Invent is probably the only band where; every song they release I seem to be blasting it 24/7. They had me at their everchanger album and this still have me now. Probably the best band of our generation IMO
Every time I think they can't get any better, they prove me wrong. Always progressing for the best. Marcus absolutely killed this and branched out in such an awesome way. Keaton took a more aggressive approach than usual and killed it as well. My favorite band just keeps getting better.
WTF, just heard it, at some point a flash was hitting me. i had all the emotions with this track, this is where Invent Animate never fails me. You guys did way more than "you have done it again", because out of all the releases this year and believe me, i almost heard them all, your one hitted me the most. I can't wait for the Album, you will always have in your corner, thank you for everything you do.
Haven’t felt such an emotional connection to the lyrics since Soul Sleep. This song has me teary eyed while I sing along. Love their albums miss Ben but this new song is piercing my heart. Excited for the new album. Hope it’s got wonderful lyrics like this!
Love this song! Saw you live in Leeds UK last night... Wow! I still can't believe the lead singer screams and sings. Mind blown! Come back to the UK soon, you'll be welcomed with open arms! ❤️🤘
i initially didn't like this too much, but this is the biggest grower of 2022. like, holy shit. that is the most unique metalcore breakdown of 2022 for me
You know, the sad part about this band is the lack of live performances. I would've loved to hear songs like agora or Indigo live! But these guys are legends in the making so hopefully one day we'll hear refreshed versions of the songs 🔥
Oh okay. I didn’t expect any of that, but it for sure made my day ! I still prefer The Sun Sleeps and As If It Never Was, but this is almost perfection too. And that breakdown was simply amazing. Invent Animate are coming in strong !
lost for words really, every single release from them continues to top the last and blow me away again, one of the absolute top bands in metalcore currently and they have been for a long time, so unbelievably underrated
I wasn't a huge fan of the sun sleeps but man this track? Holy shit balls . everything about this song is just god tier. idk if this is intentional or not. but I feel some thall in the breakdown and i also felt it in the breakdown of Dark and please feel free to add as much as you want. the fade ins give such a crazy atmospheric feeling. see you guys in texas

damn.. idk what to say. This dude can put to words feelings we can't even comprehend. That's an artform right there.
Hope they get a set longer than 20 mins in this upcoming tour. they deserve it
right! i love their whole discography and we get to hear 4 songs live
@@AnTiSe7eN they have enough songs for a headliner tour tbh. hopefully next year 🙏
25 min set, 5 songs, maybe a sixth if they have time
amen!
yeah i hope so, i will see them in november in berlin, i am obly there for the supporting bands. I would do everything if Invent Animate and Currents would do a duo headline tour in europe.
Invent Animate just do not miss. Banger after banger with these guys.
Love your new album Chris! Tell James we still miss him cause your still not around.

@@taylorwilliams9774 I'm the kinda person that still messages the dead. I figured this wasn't the real drummer, but....i miss them so much! :'-(
@@etstiffler they’re putting out a song today or tomorrow
Really tired of seeing these guys as opening acts. What a banger
that moment when you're excited to see the opener as much as the headliner
@@minuswon The moment when you liked the openner more than the headliner
They played with ERRA last night. They were incredible. Felt like they had a decently lengthy set which is nice! They were awesome.
@@kbkbkbkbkbkbkbkbkbkb oh heck yeah. I went to the 1st show on this tour and it was live!

I don’t usually get goosebumps much anymore with music but, like the Sun Sleeps, this artist continues to remind me that I’m not dead yet.

this your first time hearing them? welcome to the family
Kings of ambiance back at it again - give me all the feels
I had a high bar set after their EP and this still just blew me away
i could tell that the ep was the bands way of saying “hey we’re in our bag so get ready”
The Sea of Tragic Beasts profile pic!! A step ahead of you, brother.
Beebee knows that damn deal
Same here.
Seriously. Every song is so good you can’t even guess the track placement. 😂
marcus opened up his vocal talent on this track. and that breakdown smacked me in the mouth! nothing short of amazing gentleman
as much as I loved Ben, Marcus has more potential imo.
@@lorrainegatanianhits8331 Ben was better in live shows tho.
Unbelievably good.
Fun fact: Invent Animate is for sure the best and the most unique band in the whole metalcore scene right now.
Can't wait for the album
P.S. This song definitely made my day
"fun fact"
Proceeds to drop an opinion.
@@hurpdurp916 that is definitely a fact. ain’t a better group of songwriters in metalcore right now than these guys.
@@hurpdurp916 that is a fact tho :) Invent Animate truly is the most unique band in the metalcore!
@@hurpdurp916 this is a meme, lol
@@hurpdurp916 the correct opinion
What a surprise! This band never fails to impress me.
Best band in the scene right now.
@@NONAME-rc1cu Can't argue anymore
3:00 onward is perfection. That bridge is heavenly!!!
my walls are covered in IA wall flags, closet is packed with their merch, skin inked with an IA tattoo, and heart full of their music that i will carry with me for the rest of my days.
balled my eyes out to this song. this band is a huge part of my life and a constant source of joy and comfort. ia forever

This is the type of band to remind you music is art. Literally insane how they can combine the most polarizing emotions into one song. Unreal guys
Reinvent Animate once again, best band in the scene. Pure banger
love it
Anyone else listen to this 267,340.222 times since release?
This is a change for the bands sound imo. But they still maintain that wonderful sense of atmosphere and ambient melancholy that no other band is able to attain. I love it!
Loved your last book
That chorus is so damn catchy🔥
his best yet right?!
this band gets better and better with every release. Cannot wait for this new album!
Can vouch, they sound just as good live, this song rips.
God everything this band does is brutally beautiful
The boys have done it again. Fresh but staying true to their emotive and powerful sound. Looking forward to the album!
That's right
The chorus suddenly come to my mind so I'm here!
my fav band
Very stillworld vibec from that breakdown
I feel sorry for anyone releasing music in the same year as IA
PLEASE come to Australia, my fav band
That breakdown tho. I see yall thallin'.
Fucking 10/10 all around, love you guys.
-Fellow Texan
Thall showing up in so many metal bands. If a new song makes me think of Vildhjarta or HLB even once, it makes me happy.
Texans for life mane
What does thall mean ?

Lol I was thinking the same thing
Invent Animate never dissapoints me... Marcus, you're a gem and a force
I love everything they put out... Keke's riffs especially
BEST BAND IN THE HISTORY OF THE WOOOORLD
TROOOOOO

Lol I love your channel.
Top 5 in the scene easy

Jeeeezus those half times with the ambience, unreal.
Just had my wisdom teeth taken out and this made me forget about all the discomfort
Ambient chaos is the perfect way to describe IA. Well done boys!

Felt the same way since they released the everchanger album

First band I've seen where I cried during their entire set. They just channel that emotion I can't explain even as I type about it v

Random Vildhjarta section was unexpected lol. Good song
Which section?
@@merkaba_lite Vildhjarta is THE musical masterpiece.
But IA drinks damn well of them
breakdown is very thall🤘🤘🤘 invent animate never ceases to amaze me
The breakdown at almost 3 minutes briefly gave me Vildjharta vibes and I'm all for it.
Crazy to see how good Marcus is. He is taking this band after what Ben set as the ground for the first 2 albums! Always excited for more!
This is the best metalcore band in the world right now.
The vocals. The break. The perfection 🔥 Thank you for yet another stunning offering 🙏
I was late to finding this band, but boy am I glad I got here eventually.
The first day this came out I probably listened to this 20 times back to back. I still cant get enough. These guys are INSANE
Saw them in Chicago a few days ago MUST see band they were absolutely flawless man..amazing band!
Love how the highs get cut off by the lows so quick like a monster suppressing its own emotions and drowning it with heaviness. As always, Invent Animate never ceases to inspire
