I have come to understand this as completely, 100%, facts. I am currently trying to learn all the songs that tabs exist for, and I gotta tell ya, this guy is fucking ridiculous. Made even more impressive by how it's subtle. Listening to it you don't automatically think, "holy shit this is super technical and crazy" because it's so fuckin catchy, but it is some of the more difficult guitar parts I've ever learned.
I had guitar lessons from Joe like 13 years ago when i was in high school.. gave me the best advice on scales ever. i didn't even get to play hardly. i wouldn't consider it a lesson, but more of a lecture on his playing style. a memory i would never forget. and it was only like $50Aud a lesson. Joe if your reading this, you are a ledged, and always will be a legendary icon in the metal community. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Same here nr 1 album of 2022 Funny enough I went to their gig without hearing a song from them previously I heard Enslavement (now I know...) and was like WTF?!?! Mind blowing album on all levels!
The way they use some subtle symphonic arrangements and/or keyboards is just amazing and perfect. It just adds that detail that makes a difference. The melody in the choruses makes you believe they are actually singing even if they're not. One of the greatest bands of modern times !
@@dllisz I love this album even more for the artwork. Is this really painted on canvas and then transformed digitally? Do you know anything about this? I would love to know more.
In Awe of this album thus far (about 70% through). I’m a longtime psycroptic fan who hasn’t been disappointed with the last couple records but also not particularly taken with them either. This has to be one of the best metal albums I’ve ever heard. All my compliments to the chefs In the kitchen on this one wow 😮
album simply slaps from beginning to end, riffs/drums/vocals are exceptional, beautifully crafted record fellas ! your best work to date in my humble opinion :)
I love how clean everything sounds in Psycroptics records. Apart maybe the vocals in this one. But everything else is just the definition of crispy & transparent on the edge to dry. Nothing like most of the stuffed "brutal" records of many extreme metal bands today. (No offense to young bands intended!)
i hate when people are like "oh it sounds too crisp i dont like it." WHY THE FUCK WOULDNT YOU WANT A CLEAN SOUNDING PRODUCTION? i get that with older records the technology wasnt there, and some bands now are purposely sounding "older" for estique and thats cool too. THIS is the death/tech death i wanna hear. clean recordings of every part, cohesively put together correctly. this album does it almostly perfectly in my opinion. a little more bass would be cool but they obviously perfected the album to the way they want it and its one of the best sounding albums ive heard in a while.
Just saw them Monday, great show and they are the nicest guys in person. Super humble and just happy to see fans coming out to support. Plus the tour shirt was sick as f. Thanks for coming to the states.
Yes ive seen these guys live a few times over the years ...they never fail to deliver the technical proficiency and mix the brutality in to get the heads moving .🤟🤟🤟i live in gary Indiana so theres not many white people around me so everybodies always blasting rap or gangsta shit but i drive around doing my thing i for the most part have music like this just cranked up to 11🤟🤟🤟🎸🎸🎸...ive been pulled over by the police several times because my music is too loud as a matter of fact one cop pulled me over not to tell me to turn it down but who was i listening to lol at the time i was listening to polish power houses DECAPITATED!!! Turned out the cop was a MMA fighter in his spare time and loved listening totechnically proficient death metal like necrophagist of all people while training at the gym !!! ❤
If you can, see them live, they fucking rock, Lead singer is an awesome dude
Joe Haley is a criminally underrated guitar player.
How so ?
Dave Haley is also a criminally underrated drummer.
all musicians are underrated at this point

Hasn't been dethroned as album of the decade in my book. - 2024
Saw these guys live 5 days ago in a small ass venue with about 30 people in it. They killed it. Amazing band.
hope they do another US tour soon! missed out this time 🙃
im very jealous.
That's so cool they're still about this
Too sad that there were only 30 people
ass venue?

Album of the Year , 2022 ! This is amazing ! The drummer must be a Cyborg . Guitar Riffs far beyond driven . Simply a Masterpiece of modern metal !
pantera reference? *wink wink*
Same here nr 1 album of 2022
Funny enough I went to their gig without hearing a song from them previously
I heard Enslavement (now I know...) and was like WTF?!?!
Mind blowing album on all levels!
Album of the year? Drums, guitar?
Did you not listen to Chaosphere by Origin? 😢
@@longshanks5531 Origin sounds like recorded in garage and rather monotonous blast... not outstanding for sure
Still killin it
This album is an absolute masterpiece.
My physician suggested me this record to alleviate the neck pain! It worked 100% and Psycroptic gained a fan! I'd call that a win-win situation!
wouldn't it cause more neck pain from the head banging?
@@BirdOfHermes83 What does not kill you makes you stronger.
ask ur mom lol@@BirdOfHermes83
Is that where the word fan is derived from? A person spinning their hair and thus fanning cool air in the artists' direction?
@@tornoutlaw It could make a nice water sprayer too. Just continue handbanging and that's it !
Psycroptic are a god tier band, and this will cement that status even further.

This shit so good, the cover art decapitated itself from headbanging.
* plop! *
oops almost dropped it
_hhnnng_ (screws it back on)
there we go (resumes headbanging)
The tightness of this band is ridiculous.
Joe's sense of melody is unparalleled

In the studio he's amazing. Outside of the studio he's still amazing. What's your point?
Surely..one of the best album of the year!
any problem?
How could I have not heard about this band before?!!!
Totally underrated!
You will not be disappointed checking out their older stuff, it is more.....chaotic and unrestrained, but still this 👌
Fantastic album. Not a single weak song! Divine Council is filled with bangers through and through.
Hell of a record! What a pleasant discovery!
Something hits different about this band! Excellent work!
Beyond solid. Thanks for remaining as consistent as you have for all these years, Psycroptic. We're not worthy.
The way they use some subtle symphonic arrangements and/or keyboards is just amazing and perfect. It just adds that detail that makes a difference. The melody in the choruses makes you believe they are actually singing even if they're not. One of the greatest bands of modern times !
These riffs make us smarter
Holy shit, this is absolutely fantastic. Riff after perfect riff of goddamn ear candy. Bravo!!
Here here, bravo indeed
i remember when i thought VOD had the best riffs, and revocation, but this is bad ass.
Never heard of these guys but I need to buy this.
Opening track riffs are definitely paying homage to Decapitated in the vein of “Homo Sum”!
Stoked to see this guys in Madrid next year. They're a powerhouse of modern death metal.
19 days into the New Year & we have an AOTY contender 🤘
Alll of their tunes are wonderful!
I am really happy to listen to their music.
This album should be within top 10 metal album of the year 2022
Pure divine brilliance 👌 Dave's drumming is so underrated it's criminal 🙄
Daves satanic power 😈😎
Pff
Not the biggest fan of the death metal genre. But this album is really captivating. The cover art work is also stunning!
Every album of Psycroptic
The cover is made by Eliran Kantor. Outstanding artist who also did cover paintings for Testament, Archspire, Havok and so on!
@@dllisz I love this album even more for the artwork. Is this really painted on canvas and then transformed digitally? Do you know anything about this? I would love to know more.
@@dllisz did he made the cover of the new Malevolence's "Malicious Intent"?
@@enzogibertini8267 Yup!
This has been out for a month already and I just found it now! Holy cow!
Killer album! Awesome sounds and great aggression.
I enjoy the unique riff writing!
This is all i have been listening to. Best record in 2022 hands down
What you hear on the recording is what you hear live a step above
Daaamn dude. This rips. I'm so happy these guys are still around after all these years. Still insanely sharp. Much love.
Its musical perfection
Brilliant riffs, perfect style. Simply the best.
superb. this is gonna be the album of the year and will remain as one of the most beautiful Psycroptic releases ever

Raising the bar once again
Quality. Just fuckin quality.
Riffs insanos! Pura inspiração!
Album artwork giving new meaning to headbanging. Heads off lads!
This band is like a blast of wind that hits you and takes all the skin off your face. And I like that. EDIT:AOTY 2022

Yes. Insta-buy!
more listenable and digestible than i was expecting
I have been enjoying this album very much, it's excellent IMO.
That album art though 😳

Sublime
Fury on max intro!🤘🏾😤🤘🏾 it's like they are throwing over 1000000 darts into my ears with that drummer!

Good stuff.
how the fuck have I never heard these guys? Fucking killer!
Yes ive seen these guys live a few times over the years ...they never fail to deliver the technical proficiency and mix the brutality in to get the heads moving .🤟🤟🤟i live in gary Indiana so theres not many white people around me so everybodies always blasting rap or gangsta shit but i drive around doing my thing i for the most part have music like this just cranked up to 11🤟🤟🤟🎸🎸🎸...ive been pulled over by the police several times because my music is too loud as a matter of fact one cop pulled me over not to tell me to turn it down but who was i listening to lol at the time i was listening to polish power houses DECAPITATED!!! Turned out the cop was a MMA fighter in his spare time and loved listening totechnically proficient death metal like necrophagist of all people while training at the gym !!! ❤
This is so heavy that if my ears were people, they'd be unconscious by now.
I agree with all the rest this is a kick-ass fucking album... Just a good listen all the way through.
LOVE
Series oldschool vibes from this album, like "scepter of the ancients" and "isle of disenchantment" kind of vibes.
This definitely needs more Chalky.
