What’s up Drew! For sure man this was prog on top prog with a side of prog. This was some prog heaven. I guess you can say they got a little talent lol.
I still watch that often, Acceptance being my favorite part, what a piece of brilliance, and that insane level of emotion. That's why Dan's my favorite on vocals.
@@PHLCoffeeSnob It's actually really hard for me to pick a favorite TesseracT song or even parts of songs, never mind an album even 😅 mood plays a role for sure, but damn, the whole of Concealing Fate is a masterpiece for sure. They really showed their hand there, you know. But I'm definitely obsessing about Legion at the moment, can't get over it 😁
Love Tesseract... Daniel has amazing vocals. You should check out some of their older stuff live in the studio. Hexes, live at Phoenix and the Concealing Fate 6 part-er. Just amazing.
Tesseract! Another one of my favorite bands that I always wanted you guys to check out. There are a few bands who are considered big evolutions on the djent style Meshuggah kind of started. Periphery and Tesseract are two, and I think Periphery might be if Meshuggah was more fun and varied, and Tesseract is what Meshuggah would sound like if they were more theatrical and beautiful. This is from the album they just released a week ago, and it kind of amazed even long time Tesseract fans because the lead singer here, Daniel Tompkins, has always been incredible...and he reached another level on this album. He busts out all kinds of new sounds that he's never used before and this song has him flipping between different voices more than usual. A lot of people were really amazed, and I kind of feel like this isn't a good first introduction to the band because it's such a big, in your face kind of performance. Definitely listen to more, since you guys like Meshuggah and Periphery. Tesseract is well known, but if you look at their social media engagement, they really don't get that much attention for some reason. I think people know OF them, but don't actually check them out. There's plenty of options. You can do more from this album, like War of Being...or you can try an older classic, like Concealing Fate, Nocturne, or Dystopia.
Their guitarist (and mixing/mastering engineer) Acle put out a cover of a NIN song not too long ago, so hearing a NIN inspiration in this song is a good guess
Tesseract is a great band and I'm excited to see them live again next month. Figured you guys would like them since u like Periphery. Both bands are so technical yet they can create great melodic bits. Both singers are great at transitioning from clean to harsh vocals. Huge vocal range.
tesseract are a band that grows on you the more you listen, the first few times its like there something there but it didnt quite come together, it didnt exactly click, but you hear a few more tunes and then something really works and when you get into their vibe its a hook. id suggest: 'tourniquet' or 'smile' both studio album versions. but honestly theyre the kind of band like opeth where theres so many songs at a similar level you could throw up a list of 25 tunes and make an argument that any one of them should be the one to try.
These guys have put out some incredible music.. even on their album Alter State, which was with a different singer. The song Singularity has one of my favorite guitar riffs of all time.
Check out the Odyssey to the west album but Slice the Cake! It’s a concept album about a guy who was forced to go on a pilgrimage to The Holy Mountain and all the struggles along the way, and he’s also struggling with a relationship, and she leaves him mid way, and he has to go rest of the way by himself. All of the lyric on the album are poems the guy wrote along the way. Like I said its a masterpiece.
Been watching you guys for years....love the Rush reactions especially all time. Ya...Dan Tompkins is a f'n fabulous vocalist...Discovered him singing for Skyharbor in 2013 randonmly...I've always said he has a voice like George Michael with added awesomess of prog, growl, scream etc,..I'm jealous hahah.
These guys are the only band that's ever come close to scratching the Tool itch for me. Just saw them live in Baltimore and they fucking killed it. Definitely check out Concealing Fate!!!
Tesseract is one of those bands i don't listen to alot, but when I do, I always enjoy the ride. you should check out Sylosis, british thrash metal band. Song like Empyreal or Fear The World or, Edge Of The Earth, Mercy or Procession would be good starting points
Hey guys, glad you're finally checking out a favorite of mine. I don't think this is a good introduction, even though it's probably vocally, Dan's best performance. To really hear the 'band', check out the album version 'Of Mind-Nocturne' (this one has a different singer, but he's great too). If you do a reaction, do the 5:51 album version as the official video shortens the song and misses some of the funkiest, grooviest parts at the end of the song.
Really, if people want them to do Nocturne, they should just check out the PORTALS version since it has Dan. I wish it had the ending instrumental part, but the PORTALS version is overall better.
@@darkphoenix2 but the Portals version doesn't have Jay on drums which, to be honest, I'm biased on. I see your point with Dan though. Ashe was a good vocalist, but Dan is on another level.
Prog is metal for thinkers... It's meant to challenge you.... this is called djent but no Dream Theater fan would be mad at you for putting this in the pool
You won’t find a better Prog band my friend 🔥
They are definitely a fourth-dimensional band.
What’s up Drew! For sure man this was prog on top prog with a side of prog. This was some prog heaven. I guess you can say they got a little talent lol.
@@BlackSun6393loool I see what you did there
After TesseracT anything is the same ❤
Tool has entered the chat =P
You guys must check out the 6-part song called Concealing Fate live in the studio. It's a masterpiece.
Also check out altered states. An interim singer, but fantastic album. Also some live videos on it
I still watch that often, Acceptance being my favorite part, what a piece of brilliance, and that insane level of emotion. That's why Dan's my favorite on vocals.
@@marynvos4028I've found that a lot of people think Acceptance is the best. For some reason I prefer Origin 😁

This song gives me full body goosebumps. It might be my favorite metal vocal performance since Chris Cornell in "Superunknown".
Whole album is amazing. Your jaw will drop for the title track. War of Being is GREAT-ness.
You have GOT to check out the title track 'War Of Being' what a masterpiece of a track
I hope y’all do a deep dive on these guys
uff tesseract is amazing, listen TOURNIQUET, SEVEN NAMES, NOCTURNE, JUNO, CAGE, ALL SONGS . UFF UFF DANIEL TOMPKINS MAEVA WHIT SKYHARBOR COVER, ALLURE, ETC
This one blew me away frankly.
TesseracT is worth diving into. They are one of my favorite bands.
Dan always kills it but he really went off on this one, real step up from anything he's done before on this new album imo.
Love Tesseract... Daniel has amazing vocals. You should check out some of their older stuff live in the studio. Hexes, live at Phoenix and the Concealing Fate 6 part-er. Just amazing.
TesseracT is such a great band. It doesn't even matter which of their songs are reacted to next, I'll be there for it.

and then you have to check out Altered state! with another singer but it's amazing!!
My favorite Daniel Tompkins vocals are with Earthside-A Dream In Static. Great video too.

War of Being next!!!!
Check out Natural Disaster by them! On the same album, it’s a monster truck of an opener
Omg. One of the 🐐s
Do Natural Disaster by them. Same new album. You would dig it I think.
You're totally right about the NIN part. I heard that as well. Enjoyed your reaction!
Yeah that particular section with the keys had that dark NIN feel to it.
greact reaction guys
for more prog we need more periphery
React to War of Being - Tesseract or ALL ONE ALBUM! PFFFF
Saludos desde México.
Now you have to react to Tesseract - Hexes! ;)
Speaking of Nine Inch Nails, the guitarist Acle Kahney did a cover of We're in this Together with Anthony Vincent here on TH-cam.
TesseracT changed my life now you’re part of the club
Don't be surprised if the singer, Daniel Tompkins, shows up in the comments. He likes to comment on reactions. He's an awesome, down-to-earth guy.
The fucking drummer! Simple but so so good!
Simple?! 😭
Yet another rabbit hole band! 🤘
Their song Acceptance is one of my all time favorites
Oh man I wish I could experience Tesseract for the 1st time again
These guys have put out some incredible music.. even on their album Alter State, which was with a different singer. The song Singularity has one of my favorite guitar riffs of all time.

We need more tesseract!!! You know you want it to…..
Finally 😂 , I waited a long time for them to react to tesseract, this latest album is 🔥🔥🔥they could react Nocturne / Eden /Juno/ Tourniquet...
Tesseract is one of those bands i don't listen to alot, but when I do, I always enjoy the ride.
you should check out Sylosis, british thrash metal band. Song like Empyreal or Fear The World or, Edge Of The Earth, Mercy or Procession would be good starting points
I have the pleasure of seeing them in Los Angeles this November
So many of the highs in this song remind me of Omar from The Mars Volta.
War of being(title track) video next please.❤
You guys gotta do more Tesseract.
I love Tesseract 🤘
LEGION IS WOOOOOW! AMAZING AMAZING
Submerge!!! Dive deep. No wrong answers here ❤❤❤
please react to Gojira - Space time. love your reactions!
Check out burden from the new album. Love your channel.
It’s Tool mix with Mars Volta

@@dmusiclife5727 hahaha not yo cheez burgah.
You have to do ACCEPTANCE
Prog is metal for thinkers... It's meant to challenge you.... this is called djent but no Dream Theater fan would be mad at you for putting this in the pool
No keys, modern guitar effects. Just sayin
Not felling it , unlistenable
War of Being
