I, The Creator
in spite of making this
all I breathe
I'm sitting soulless
in moments unforeseen
but I
long to feel the breeze
bound by this disease
scars to take the place
of open channels
with no stream
I've got the answer
do I dare to heed?
believe
all things in effect
will surely grow
for now
solace is the mission
given to the organized
pick a fucking side
with us or against us
we're moving
forward
for now
this is the end
of promises made
that were never meant
to hurt
(let it go, let it go)
forget what I said
I just want to
watch you burn
for promises made
that were never meant
to hurt you
(go, let it go, let it go)
forget what I said
I just wanna
watch you burn
and if my time just came
back to me
I wouldn't change a thing
ablaze, this apparition burns
your power is your own
value the human spirit
condemn yourself
or choose to live
no more
we will form as one
ready to fight you
with no surrender
we are ready to
believe
all things in effect
will surely grow
for now
solace is the mission
given to the organized
pick your fucking side
with us or against us
we're moving
forward
for now
this is the end
of promises made
that were never meant
to hurt
(let it go, let it go)
forget what i said
i just want to
watch you burn
for promises made
that were never meant
to hurt you
(go, let it go, let it go)
forget what i said
I just wanna
watch you burn
no more
we will form as one
ready to fight you
with no surrender
we are ready to
rise

Fuck yeah that was wicked!
Jesus, me Lord is that you?
Oh neat... it's Ola tha Swede
I hope my neighbors like this song.
I don't care if the do, they're going to listen to it.
Oh, they will... They're gonna have to!
My roommates like this song but after almost a decade of me blasting it, probably hate it
Haha me too.
They will
When I play this on drums, I feel like I reach a higher state of existence...
If you can play this on drums then you have.
thats because you have my friend. music is the medicine
That's what's called changing dimensions
lol cool but can you play it on guitar yet?
To me, the instrumental version and this sound like 2 completely different songs, and I love it. Like, my favorite Periphery song off the 1st album was Light, but my favorite off the instrumental album was Ow My Feelings. However, I think that I, The Creator and the Indulger instrumental are my 2 favorite Monuments songs regardless. Browne is a fucking groove machine.
I always found periphery a bit hit and miss, love some of their songs like Icarus Lives and Jetpacks Was Yes, put lacked the grooves of Monuments
RJ James
You can't say that Icarus Lives lacks groove. Icarus Lives IS groove.
Ow My Feelings was amazing as an instrumental. and yes this is delicious. Its all nomz
ow my feelings is such a fantastic song, very underrated.
Fell in love at first sound. Shame on the dislikers. This is absolute quality and talent. From an unbiased perspective this isn't worthy of a dislike. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it's bad.
I love that moment John Browne uses Magic 0:00 - 4:04
Didn't like them before, but this one I REALLY like! can't wait to hear more :P
We've entered an era where instead of everyone criticizing your playing ability (because they can't) they're slamming your mix instead. Everyone and they're little brothers cousins sister thinks they are a producer/mixer/mastering engineer nowadays. Comedy
i mean, the mix isn’t god tier here
@@SpookyStorkRunningWild who cares lol it still slaps and the songwriting is god-tier
in love with the chorus and main riff on this track, outstanding
I played this as loud as I could in the office today, and almost got fired. Fucking excellence.
you’re an idiot
Fucking amazing track. Vocals are pretty damn near perfect. Can't wait to hear more!!
First time hearing instrumental track: yeah this is awesome! First time hearing vocals: OMFG *SPLOOOOOOOSH*
Wow, that is some awesome riffing, love the tapping sections
Your new album is a game changer! Superbad ass! Keep up with the next level of rockin!!
dat crash ride 8(
every single djent band sounds the same and i don't mean it in some flaming type of way. they literally all do the same exact things. sorry folks.
If you're classifying djent as a genre, then yes bands from the same genre will sound similar and have similar ways of playing. But to me, they all are very different in their own way.
how many rock band ride a high hat?
You have cookies for ears.
Luka 🍪
Holy shit guys I knew the new album would be good but Jesus Christ this is epic
Fantastic
22 Juillet à La Sala Rossa guys !!! avec Reflections : D
This is such a beautiful song.... I can't even...put it in words....I just get lost in it every time
2:08 hit different.
Reminds me kinda of Dayshell..
2:08❤
Fuck yehhhh boiiiiii
Just wondering if anyone here knew that Chris Barretto also plays all the saxophone on Tesseracts Altered State. Just thought that was worth putting out there
He also wrote the majority of the lyrics on Periphery's first record
Leon Fiore Bello those sax parts on that album are epic. So cool
All of them?
I think he sang for periphery for a hot minute too
Do you mean he is responsible for the best sax solo i will hear in my life?
There are more layers to this song than an ogre!
than an onion!
***** I think that was the joke.
Tim Davis and he was adding to the joke...
Lewis Murphy What a great addition.
***** It's never ogre
The vocals just made this track 10 times better
Yeah man, Chris definitely fits with this band.
Big fan of monuments from the beginning, couldn't disagree with you more.
Sadly the vocals add a generic element to the sound.
Brian lammas Curiosity…how?
Brian lammas Maybe just a fan of John? And not the band itself?
Brian lammas HA! so wrong! Barretto is epic!

i need the ability for play this xD
You can. Play this on 6 :). It's a whole step lower than drop C so just pick up a pack of beefy strings. Not too thick, because it's unnecessary
Tunning from low to high

Song is actually easier then you think
Take it from this guy who's tried learning this on a 6, you need the extra range for the tapping parts.
you don't really. just do it an octave down
Chris' vocals are tight. Pre-order?
After listening countless times I'm still blown away by the vocals. Which is weird, I usually hate clean, high pitched vocals over progressive metal. But dayum what a chorus and what a vocal performance. Sick.
I don't remember the last time I smiled so much listening to a new song release. Fucking phenomenal.
Kyle says hi!
Absolutely amazing song writing, my new favourite band. Too bad the production and mixing needs a lot of work - the bass drum sounds like someone slapping a wet fish against a wooden floorboard
I read this analogy in my campus hallway. I now need to repress my urge to flop like the fish, because I am laughing too hard.
+Tame Nectar see them live :) much better
+Tame Nectar see them live :) much better
+Tame Nectar look for the full album on here, sounds much better
the guitars sound like if a tin can was used as an amp.
Blown away by Chris's vocals!
YES
Anders?
Djent Sevendust. I fucking love it.
This. YES! I just about shit when I read that lol. Mind blown at how amazingly perfectly correct you are.
Djentdust.
***** Sevendjust
Moof Wongduss The vox is black though.....
Moof Wongduss Lol I love Howard!
Sick! Loving the little hat thing in the spaces in the intro riff, really looking forward to the album!
Love it.. Malyan is a fooking legend.
Shot Fired. TesseracT's move. Either way, I have a feeling this is gonna be an album to own on physical.
Didn't notice until I jammed it on my monitors, but it sounds like Chris is doing the Michael Jackson breathing in the chorus.
What happened to Chris? He just disappeared off the planet after leaving Monuments. All his social media are abandoned as well.
I was wondering the same.
I think hes still apart of ever forthright
he has ascended
Holy shit, Barretto nailed it. So excited for more.
Ive always loved Monuments but i really wasn't into Matt's vocals. Chris's voice is perfect for them!!
Best band i've found in awhile
Same. This is just what I neEDED
The intro...damn, that intro...
Tyler, the Breather
THIIIISSS ISSSS THHE EEEENNNNNNDDDDDDD
Monuments have always been my favourite progressive band out there since Fellsilent.
Progressive? Wut.
Blelleee Yeah, they're modern prog metal, what's so hard to understand?
Blelleee Progressive Metal yo, not "djent"
Mmm ok
Soy Sauce I'm going to try not to make a genre war, but really isn't basically all djent progressive metal with guaranteed chugging thrown in?
Chris hasn't disappointed. This is killer. Guitar tones sound different to the original instrumental track, but I cannot wait to pre order this album!
Chris fucking Baretto, ladies and gentlemen!
👍
This is...The Indulger. With vocals...
I like it ;)
I listened to this song on repeat yesterday throughout my entire 6 hour working shift and I'm not ashamed
This is really cool. though i was not expecting those harmonies to be so layered, it'll take some time getting used to it because we've heard it so much instrumentally.
He did sound like chris cornell a little in the chorus. But i dig it!
lot of complaints about the mix if you guys havent heard on cd I feel sorry for you as you will realise it is just the youtube mastering that sounds muddy.
Bradders The Truth.
Bradders They are all wannabe music experts anyway if they truly believe youtube can emit high quality music. They are the type of guys to listen to slipknot via their handy boxes.
These are also the kinds of people that listen to this on laptop/phone speakers, not realising the points you guys have all made and also not realising that this was mixed/mastered on high quality studio monitors and high quality headphones. If idiots are going to criticise mixes, at least listen to them right before making stupid leaps.
This song sounds perfect on my 5.25" monitors. Mix is tight as hell
It's true that the album is mixed crappily. Throughout the album, guitars aren't that clear in the mix and sometimes you don't even know what notes John Browne's hitting. Chris' harmonies are buried as well. Not to mention the constant high-end blasting. JB was given less than a week to mix and master the whole thing, according to a comment of his own somewhere on TH-cam.
Words cannot express how excited I am for this album.
Is anyone going to comment about 2:04? Chris sounded so fucking demonic.
In spite of making this all I breathe

Believe
All things in effect will surely grow
For now solace is the mission given to the organized
Pick a fucking side
With us or against us
We're moving forward
For now
[Chorus]
This is the end
Of promises made
That were never meant to hurt (Let it go, let it go)
Forget what I said
I just want to watch you burn
For promises made
That were never meant to hurt you (Let it go, let it go)
Forget what I said
I just wanna watch you burn
And if my time just came
Back to me
I wouldn't change a thing
Ablaze, this apparition burns
Your power is your own
Value the human spirit
Condemn yourself
Or choose to live
No more
We will form as one
Ready to fight you
With no surrender

Forget what I said
I just wanna watch you burn
No more
We will form as one
Ready to fight you
With no surrender
We are ready to rise
OH YUP.
Amazing song! So happy for Chris doing his thing. Coming from lamps burning (my father's band) to periphery and monumments. He's come such a long way. Supporting 100%
That was fucking unbelievable
Those clean guitars @3:02 sound like angels harps damn
Does anyone know the meaning of the lyrics? The first part feels like a monologue from a god or another kind of creator, that seems to be bored and lonely of his existence, but after that the perspective moves from "I" to "us" and suddenly there's an opposing faction of some kind that "we" need to fight/burn. Is there a connection between these narratives that I'm missing?
Did you get a response? Because I was also wondering.
I'm afraid not :(
Jordy van Opstal Dang. Oh well.
The vocals are really fucking good, but i think a bit too loud in the mix, but then that could just be the speaker im listening to it through
Yeah vocals are insane but just a tiny bit too loud. Also screams are miles better than Matt's
LoganCovers91 oh I agree, i found it hard to get into them originally but this is top notch. I'm very excited for this album :D
Perfect.
Finally they have a great singer!
Oceans ate Monuments.
Saw them live in Toronto a while back now, and not having any pre-existing knowledge of the band I thought they were bad ass. The vocalist played the sax through a pod of some sort and it was by far the coolest part in the night. Does anyone know of any songs recorded where they mix some elements of sax in it?
Autotheist Movement III: Deconsecrate
John Doe lol Yes! wrong band but so much yes
Intervals is another good band
Fuck yeah! Boriquas in the motherfucking house son! \m/O-O\m/
Vocals are 10x better than anything that appeared on Gnosis. Glad Chris Baretto came aboard.
Music is awesome. Mix/Master could be better though.
that's just youtube. listen to it on cd.
Bring back matt. The vocals on this album are annoying enough for me not to listen to it at all.
Holy shit guys I knew the new album would be good but Jesus Christ this is epic
Peak monuments, facts
28 completely deaf people.
Loved Chris since old Periphery, but damn he has improved so much these past few years! Can't wait for this album to drop :D
Wow, Chris killed this track!! So fucking good!
1:20 upper left of screen "Almighty Push!"
I doubt many will get this lol
Shinra tensei!
Dat Naruto joke haha
New fan right here. Couldn't be more pumped for the Monuments/Devin/Animals tour coming up.
Glad to hear the Browne snare is gone
Um does the bit at 2:10 remind anyone else of Anup Sastry's solo releases specifically 1:54 in 'Nemesis'? Also that bit at 2:30? Sounds a lot like the bit at around 2:38 in 'Wastelands'...
Damn good band. All of them are excellent at their instruments and they have an awesome sound to them. I don't really care for the vocals for the most part. I think I would like them better if they were instrumental but they still are great either way.
nah mate
I cannot understand why people are complaining about the mixing, it sounds fine to me
Fuck the haters, this is simply amazing!
brb need to change my pants.FUCK
How cool it is to listen to one of these instrumentally well-founded bands not being ruined (embellished instead) by vocals.
This guy should participate in Shokran's new album.
LOL to the comments! there are still people that think Iron Maiden are better than this modern bands. As a musician I say: listen to Maiden and shut-up , this stuff is too futuristic, too complicated and too fast for your ears: maybe "...and Justice for all" is...
Bass Guitar Hero the number of people who request maiden songs and metallica songs on reaction channels is too damn high!
This song would be SOOOO good if they cleaned up the "muddy" production/mixing. imagine a re-work with clean produuction and no mud in the production.
more mids tighter low end and better mastering would do the trick
Its called TH-cam compression bruh
***** No it's not, I heard the album off of youtube
Yes, you heard it off of TH-cam... which has compression. Won't change the sound drastically (well unless you're an audiophile like most musicians) but it will noticeably affect the velocity of sound, low-end resonance, and high-end harmonic content. It compresses both the frequency range and dynamic range of velocity. But even if one doesn't understand WTF I'm talking about, a pleb can still hear the difference.
Anyway, mixing and mastering is a tricky thing. Especially if the one doing it favors one sonic character over others. Good example is Metallica's "And Justice For All".
Additionally, studio monitors (as used in mixing & mastering) are much more neutral and detailed than probably any of y'all colored computer speakers and headphones (no offense). It'll translate quite a variety depending on the sound system. Other words, no one is going to listen to mixing & mastering tips from someone watching on TH-cam. Unless I'm mistaken and you're a professional music producer or sound engineer with professional studio monitors and room treatment?
*****
off of youtube, meaning not on youtube. on midfield studio monitors
2:24 BLEGH
OO What tha fck happened?
i couldnt think of any more misinterpreted voice than this ... sorry.
the chorus was all that mighty instrumental and now... its... all... aww shit...
:(
Phenomenal singing! The band works fine as instrumental, but I think that Barretto's singing fits in perfectly with the band, it adds alot.
Just what I needed to start off my day.
The 65 people who didn't like this song are tone deaf trolls. This band is ear sex. (Splooges from metal amazement)
I loved this already, but with vocals it's amazing!
fucking groossssssss! :D \m/
When New Monum,ents album coming out already guys?
OK I ACTUALY NEVER LIKED THIS BAND. THEN I LISTEND TO THIS SONG. WOW. ANY OTHER SONGS FROM THEM I CAN GET INTO LIKE THIS ? THAT RIGHT HAND PALM MUTE.......JESUS
Chris Barretto's vocals kick wayyyy more ass on Ever Forthright's self-titled. But this is good shit.
WOW I came back to this song expecting just the instrumental, but i forgot Chris Barretto joined the band! This song is sooo much better!
Lets get it to a million
Canada or Riot.
I, the creator, the authority
I know what is best, to benefit me.
Periphery fucked up
This song is amazing, so glad I stumbled upon it.
I love how John Browne brings in the SikTh influence at 2:10.
