I think you're praising it just a bit much. There are still more albums to come that i think could be album of the year. I would still give it a solid 9.5/10. Last time i liked an album this much was probably unhallowed by The Black Dahlia Murder.
i dont get these "album of the year" comments. youll see them on every bands video. you are obviously a big fan but that does not mean the album is the single best musical effort put forth by any metal band in the last 12 months
I don't think people understand how good this band actually is , like there vocalist is not human his lyrics are unbelievable this album tells such an amazing story what a writer
2:24 such a tasty solo that just works so well with the rhythm guitar. Not a lot of guitarists can really get a solo to work with the rhythm guitar as well as this one does, awesome

@Christopher Norris Verse 3 is basically summarizing the point of the song. Calamus is an agent of A.U.M. and is himself infected by The Drip, a shapeless entity/force/substance that is essentially, evil incarnate that binds to humans inescapably and forever. The Child Of Teeth is a character from The Lucid Collective (tbh I don’t understand this character very well but it has something to do with the protagonist of The Lucid Collective going insane and murdering his family). His job with A.U.M. is to perform human murmuration (injecting the Drip into corpses to turn them into flying fucking zombies). “Drone Corpse Aviator” from Bleed The Future is a continuation of this concept that ties it into the story of Boanet, the villain(?) of the new story.
This song is insane for calming down children. Don't know why, it worked on our son since he was 3 months old, and my Wife used it at her daycare on the kids there and it worked to calm down 8 other kids who were inconsolable. Not to mention it's just a great song; but it's weird how well it speaks to children.
It pretty much is gibberish if you don't understand the meaning of the lyrics. I don't think anyone understands the meaning of this song, not even the song writers themselves.
@@the_furry_inside_your_walls639 Not really. Read the rest of the lyrics, it's a concept album with a very surrealist story about a cult called the AUM, and "The Drip", a substance that when put in contact with skin, completely envelops someone and mutates them and warps their mind. There is a story, it's just super weird and metaphorical.
i spent an hour to try to learn the first 40 seconds of the lyrics. i learned them...yep...can't cover it. dude actually enunciates pretty well once you learn the words
I came here because I offered Musubi to my girlfriend, who jokingly mentioned she was going to murder her pops, so I said Musubi and Murder would be a good Hawaiian Metal band. So I was looking up Hawaiian Metal which lead me somehow to Jason Momoa doing a Haka-type war pump in a movie of his I haven't seen before and one of the comments mentioned he invited the lead singer of this band to help him with the cadence for it because he was a fan, so here I am at the bottom of this brutal rabbit hole and I am okay with that.
0:01 - 0:09 Don't they know the rules? That's not allowed! You can't just start a song like that man it'll just give everyone the sour metal face bruh lol.
There is no bad song on the entire album. I think this is Album of the Year and an easy 10/10
I think you're praising it just a bit much. There are still more albums to come that i think could be album of the year. I would still give it a solid 9.5/10. Last time i liked an album this much was probably unhallowed by The Black Dahlia Murder.
From 2017? Idk it’s top 3 for sure but solid case for it. Persefone dropped a great album too
Best album I've heard since the lucid collective
i dont get these "album of the year" comments. youll see them on every bands video. you are obviously a big fan but that does not mean the album is the single best musical effort put forth by any metal band in the last 12 months
3 years after the realease.. still the best album of the decade..
Best Hip-Hop album 2017
Rap Technical Metal
Technical Rap metal
Hip hop has to include rhyming I think
This isn't hip hop smh... This is blackened nu shoe.
Technically rap technically metal.
I don't think people understand how good this band actually is , like there vocalist is not human his lyrics are unbelievable this album tells such an amazing story what a writer
2:24 tell me this isn't one of the best solos ever. Archspire are scarily talented.
"Shakespeare heavy metal rapper"
Never heard archspire described so perfectly lol
@@spicymeatballs2thespicening oh I'm only describing the singer
call tech support!
resistnonexist this song promptly plays
If tech support is trying to scam you, don't hesitate to call the Slam Police !
My Arch isnt Spiring
Gonna count to see if this or the entirety of AC/DC’s Back in Black has more snare hits wish me luck
I have never heard such groovy and natural flowing technical death metal song. only gorod maybe. I fell in love with percussive vocal technique!!
Neurotripsicks is fucking awesome!
They recorded a shotgun and put the shots over his vocals
Dethklok
Oh yes, gorod is another amazing tech death band! I love both
I fell, i'm home seeing people who likes gorod
The bass is definitely the mvp of this album
Cemre Berk Kurtçu agreed, it adds so much depth!
2:24 such a tasty solo that just works so well with the rhythm guitar. Not a lot of guitarists can really get a solo to work with the rhythm guitar as well as this one does, awesome
Love this fuckin solo, flows so well
Dy-lon spittin' hot fire with that lyrical delivery.
[Intro]
Calamus, taken to the pen to relive
Every identity we replicate
Without will they live again within our intimate collective
Animate
All the dead we bring into it
A burrow
Of human
Memory
The pen, the feather and the needle are alike in death and life
[Verse 1]
Looking back on what had happened when the feathers had arrived
I realize I was not alone
I can recall the men had got infected by it too
Having contact with the foreign components infected them
Before, the factory was known to make the highest quality of bedding
Cutting, filling, stitching fabric with the finest down from all around the world
Yet this down flew through our death dream barrier
Intact
[Chorus]
Calamus will animate
Its contents are hostile
The A.U.M. will kill everybody not in this compound
The dead I bring to them awake
And join in flight above my head
Calamus will animate
Its contents are hostile
The A.U.M. will kill everybody not in this compound
The dead I bring to them awake
And join in flight above my head
[Verse 2]
When the ink coating the wings made contact with the workers' skin, it crept into their blood
Turning them inhumanly violent
They grabbed and tore and bit and clawed at one another and themselves
Gravity and death from loss of blood had no effect on any member of the crew during their frantic battle to relief their bodies from the ether lifting them into the air
[Verse 3]
Die, then elevate
Fusing remnants of spent bodies
Weaving bones and organs into an inverted nest dug in the ceiling
The black sludge casting out from the center as a starving bird of prey
I heard its voice and felt its need to find the child made of teeth, and begin the human murmuration
[Chorus]
Calamus will animate
Its contents are hostile
The A.U.M. will kill everybody not in this compound
The dead I bring to them awake
And join in flight above my head
Calamus will animate
Its contents are hostile
The A.U.M. will kill everybody not in this compound
The dead I bring to them awake
And join in flight above my head
[Bridge 1]
Its banshee wail demanding feed
I hear its pain and become its keeper
I rip the living from the night
Like pulling worms from soil
[Bridge 2]
A.U.M. watches these sky burials
Calamus will animate
Calamus will animate
[Guitar solo]
[Verse 4]
The boy lay like a wet mound of dust on the rotting factory floor
I knew the black fluid hid itself in the deformed corpse of this child
Finally, after hours into cutting, lifting, pulling, sawing, crunching, clipping, I had found it
My crude autopsy revealed
Bounty nesting in replace of the marrow in the young one's bones
The second I saw it, it saw me
I knew its face, changing relentlessly
It was The Drip
I had it contained as instructed
Filling up many clusters of hypodermic needles with the matter
I administered it into a new subject each night, a new life
One with every full rotation of the clock
I've seen those hands meet then disengage a thousand times
[Chorus]
Calamus will animate
Its contents are hostile
The A.U.M. will kill everybody not in this compound
The dead I bring to them awake
And join in flight above my head
Calamus will animate
Its contents are hostile
The A.U.M. will kill everybody not in this compound
The dead I bring to them awake
And join in flight above my head
[Bridge 3]
Its banshee wail demanding feed
I hear its pain and become its keeper
[Verse 5]
A.U.M. allowed me to live off the organs once the people took flight
They do not keep me against my will, yet I refuse to run
Every day I climb the stairs outside this door and view the horde of lifted dead that they conduct behind the factory walls
I must hold on to the final tier of focus
I still have to scribe these happenings in hopes that someone will know what went on here
I can feel the pressure of their unified unscripted flight pounding air down on the floorboard, just a plank's width above
[Bridge 4]
I rip the living from the night
Like pulling worms from soil
Bless you 🖤

maybe the best track on the album. Or title track. good work guys

Not to mention it's just a great song; but it's weird how well it speaks to children.
Children's brains are so abstract and undisciplined (because they're kids) so maybe hearing controlled chaos is actually soothing.
@@TheTurbineEngineer and I agree that’s likely the reason! But none of the other songs work so who knows why this one in particular 😂
@@anthonygillette Well that's interesting, I can't explain that one 😂
2:42, such a sick riff
HELL YEAH it is extremely catchy
0:40 though!
Brutal af
Enigmatic ! Dude 00:40 is actually dope as fuckkkkk
Justin Naujoks hell yeah it is the entire song is fire!!!
I need the damn lyrics bc I feel like I'm screaming gibberish inside my head.

Aligators aligate. Calamus will caligate. Awesome piece!
Wait what.
agitators agitate the concept is wrongful the home will kill everybody not in the household.
That perfect 16th note fill that goes with the lyrics. Fuckin awesome.
i spent an hour to try to learn the first 40 seconds of the lyrics. i learned them...yep...can't cover it. dude actually enunciates pretty well once you learn the words
Fact. I saw them live. They opened with this song. No warm up period. Dude just came out and slayed the place immediately.
One of the best live acts I've ever seen
The award for catchiest chorus in death metal history goes to...Archspire!
TheSpliffstarEffect For Remote Tumor Seeker though.
Yeah, but for what song?
That award went to Eaten by Bloodbath a long time ago

Sounds like another installment of project badass!
I'm digging it!
That bassist goes HARD I wish I could play like that!
I need a Canadian diaphragm
This song is incredible but, from the breakdown in the middle until the end it's even better.
I love how the intro is straight from a Tech N9ne song lmao
"Stamina"
I just did check... when you make it better it's not a copy anymore.
Well Oliver, the vocalist, takes inspiration from Tech N9ne as far as i know
Bet if Tech N9ne heard this he'd be a fan if he hasn't already.
@@porksoda7701 Considering Tech N9ne has done collabs with metal bands before, I wouldn't be surprised if he were a fan of Archspire.
Chill weed smoking music
That bridge has a nice Necrophagist flavor.....rip ☹️
Was gonna make this comment. I hear To Breath in a Casket
Damn, I saw necrophagist several times. Fuckin amazing shows! Still don’t get how he played guitar and sang like that. Loved his xyphos guitar too. 🍻
Oliver is just full of talent!
Fucking great song off this album
I'm not friend of Technical Death Metal, but this sounds cool...
You're not a friend of Technical Death Metal?
@@HopefulNihilist probably his way of telling others hes too pure. Silly how fragmented metal audiences can be.
@@cosmiceon People can have their own opinions on music

I'm not disappointed...and I feel ready to fight!

dude they did it
1:57 complete chaos
EDIT: in a good way don't hurt me Spencer
Didn't know Spawn of Possession had such a descendant. Cool stuff.
Cool stuff indeed! It bears mentioning though, SoP never had a Dean Lamb. Also, Oli knows how to stfu for a breakdown. :D
@@chasegraham246 SoP never needed a Dean lamb! They are leagues above these trendy stay tek def kinda metal.
This song is in my top 7 songs for this album.
In my opinion, this song deserves to be in the Archspire's Top 22 best song to date.
That tech make me crazy, well done guys \m/
This is one of the best intro I've ever heard, it blew my mind
i find the intro just corny - it was a gimmick of many metalcore bands . but the REST of the song is fire
2:38 is so good.
Oli is a fucking monster. Love these guys
So happy 🎉
This is on Jason Momoa’s apple playlist lol
who now?
@@snow5772 Actor guy
Oliver taught Jason how to do battle cries, I believe
Got tech ? Call Archspire.
Sick house!
🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥❤
the singer should go on the voice
yea, but how is the local band going to play an archspire song?
@@danielmuresan6779 Hahahahahaha omfg I'm imagining that right now. XD
What the fuck am I listening to!? That intro and whole song. What a MASTERPIECE! \m/
Archspire freaking rules! I LOVE this album. Also, today is 1/1/2020. Woo hoo. Lol.
Wow I just fucked around with the equalizer setting and the notes sound even more clear and rich and the bass is Grove City
Awesome band 😈🤘🏿

Intro sound like stamina by Tech n9ne lol
Logged in just to say that!
It is!
This is fast. Make more songs in this style, as it sounds unlike most music. Music video? I'm thinking animated.
Aquamans favorite song
Here from a comment on Tech N9ne - Stamina
This song rips 🔪🔪
Rap technical death metal
Friggin' skookem 'eh?
Never knew Cookie Monster was so hard
0:01 - 0:09 Don't they know the rules? That's not allowed! You can't just start a song like that man it'll just give everyone the sour metal face bruh lol.
well... fuck them¿
When I first listened to this album I was like "What the fuck is this music, that singer needs to STFU I cant hear shit" lol
Honest question: does the singer have a lisp?? All I can hear in the intro and some parts is a "th" lisp during "sss" noises or "st" noises
TheCr0wing I mean he’s deforming the shit out of his mouth and airways so he can sound like a demon, some of it comes out sounding a lil weird lmao
I think it’s just the way he sings the lyrics. Its so fast it makes them sound like he’s pronouncing the words weird
I. AM. FULLY. ERRECT
Lyrics? :,v
me cago en la puta
too slow. the only way to properly listen to this is in x2 speed
hmm
wtf is A.U.M? x'D
Jobforapelli it's a Hindu spiritual term that means complete enlightenment
The album is roughly based around a Japanese doomsday cult which experimented on peoples brains, the en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aum_Shinrikyo
Wtf is A.U.M.?
