Thank you all so much for the love and support. We are all so grateful - Dan
Some beautiful vocal gymnastics in this one!
Cant wait to see you in chicago
Dan, what an amazing voice 🤍
Fucking mind blowing. Thank you.
Im just wishing u guys come again to argentina with this new content! This is amazing!
TesseracT are so committed to the mix they actually sent Dan into the vacuum of space for the acoustics. Bravo, gents. 👏
Whoelse but Acle to mix this beautiful album
Bravo, djents. 👏
As above, djents is the correct pronunciation
False. Technically, acoustics are not possible in a vacuum.
@@bradleycallahan2855 Making it that much better for isolating sound. 😎
Officially nominating 3:27 as the vocal highlight of the decade in metal. I haven't got goosebumps like that in a LOOOONG TIME. What artistry, Dan!
I don't know why he can scream and sound like michael jackson and make it work. Jokes aside, I think Dan has the best vocals in the prog scene, and as someone who got into tesseract on their music that has softer vocals, this feels like the right blend of harmony and grit
I whole heartedly agree with this!
That scream and falsetto is so satisfying af
This is Spencer from Periphery level!! 🤟
@@AttilatheThrilla Spencer is unreal! Stylistically, I gravitate more towards Dan's voice. Both are stalwarts in their own right and absolute killer vocalists!
I'm actually completely speechless at Dan's performance in this. Absolutely just next level.
Not only this is an incredibly good song, but it also is THE MOST EXPRESSIVE Dan's song! Period! Completely blown away by these hard-to-even-explain-what's-going-on vocals!
I dunno, his skyharbor stuff is pretty damn good. This is really good also, he layered vocals like crazy
The first song he did with Earthside shows his capabilities as well. He’s a phenom
I know what to expect next from you )
@@portal432 skyharbor was amazing, agree. But it feels he got a bit more creative now? Or maybe his technique evolved a bit more, so he can try out new things. Dunno, that's just how it feels
@@kseliannur3454 you can't imagine how much i how for the instrumental for this song! ;)
Who hurt dan? Dude woke up and decided he gonna put every vocalist in the game to shame. All the respect in the world to you guys for this beautiful song.
I've only become aware that TesseracT is a thing but it was immediately obvious that their front man is really frik'n good.
He’s good…but he’s still gotta get through ronnie for best vocalist that’s just my opinion they’re pretty damn close tho switching between screams and clean vocals changing up the tempo the riffs etc it would be a tough choice
You should check out Leprous's Einar Sjolbergs @@McLoven-vm1ck
@@darkangel-ve8pn Ronnie who?
@@DrTacoPHD665RONNIE JAMES DIO BABYYYY
Thank you all for the support and positivity around these new tracks. I hope to see some of your wonderful faces at the upcoming shows ❤ - Jay
See you in St Louis, I'm pumped
LOve you dude !
See you in München!
See you in Portland!
see you in Poland!
The control this man has over his voice is fucking insane
Volume? Max. This song? On repeat. Jaw? on the floor.
Hotel? Trivago.
Whoever is mixing these new songs is god-tier; the levels of depth in the audio when you're listening on headphone's is incredible. Dan will obviously be the focal point for this track because it's absolutely insane what he's pulling off, but credit to everyone in the band for writing an absolute ear-worm of a track on every level. Beautiful job, djents.
👋☺❤
@@AcleKahney 😘🤌 this is perfect
As always, the ONE and ONLY @AcleKahney 👑🙇♂
@@AcleKahney I should have known, haha. Incredible job! All of the new tracks so far have had absolutely incredible mixes.
God like mixing indeed
OK, just to be sure: is everybody bursting into tears at 3:37 or is it just me?
I am!
3:25 changed my life forever.
This might be the best vocal performance I have ever heard.
For my money, it's Nighttime Disguise by Leprous, but this is god-tier for sure.
Yeah Leprous or rishloo takes the cake.
Man, Rishloo is always a great choice. River of Glass is my pick to show off the vocal performance. Honestly, that whole album could be my pick. Feathergun is a damn masterpiece.
@@Grease-Goblin very good friends of mine yeah rishloo, leprous,karnivool,tool .fair to midland and tesseract are my favorite lyrical bands
@@Grease-Goblin i say dark charade is andrews best performance(rishloo)
Lyrics:
Fill my eyes with blur
Stare into the sun
Linger just enough
To blindness I succumb
A monastery of hate swells deep and forever
Spectres rise and descend into the river
A memory dwells
A monastery of hate swells deep and forever
Forever, forever, forever, forever
I can be guilty free
Don't you see?
In a world designed for you and me
Holding on to echelons
Messianic deformations
Control nations
We're all holding on
I can be guilty free
Don't you see?
In a world designed for you and me
Holding on to echelons
Messianic deformations
Controlled patience
I bind you
Now you believe in nothing
I bind you
Now you believe in nothing
In my dreams I was innocent
My skin unbroken, eyes open
On a distant sphere
Before these walls surrounded me
Made me disappear
Thrown into the grey
In the ruins I remain
Lead me home
From the only world I've ever known
And branded heathen
I have lost the battle on both sides
Lead me home into the sun
I've been dreaming
Anxious to the core
I don't want to feel this way
Same as yesterday
Please lead me home
Great song!
You’re the real MVP
Thank you. I couldn't understand shit in the audio. o7
I was precisely getting back to this video hoping they would have put the lyrics under it - the problem with dematerialized music, I've bought the album but the lyrics aren't included with the song files... Thank you so much for puttin them here, you're the best!
I could be wrong. But I heard "I hate you" and then "I bind you" and also I heard "Ive been dreaming, axes to the coal, I don't want to feel this way"
Love hhow the lyrics reference Beneath my Skin/Mirror Image from Sonder on the last part:
"I've been dreaming
Love is not a dangerous thing
Anxious to the core of being"
2:45
🎶In... my... dreams... I-I-I-I-I-I-I... was... innocent 🎶
That long I gets me every single time.
same here man😅
Beni dee
This album is Dan Tompkins: Endgame.
The culmination of One, Polaris, Sonder, Portals, Ruins, Castles, Earthside, Skyharbour, Piano, Zeta, WMBB, Haji's Kitchen and Absent Hearts.
Masterful.
well described
The people who like to say that Dan can't hit high notes or scream like he used to 10 years ago have their jaws on the floor right now (if anything, he's improved). Also, I just have a feeling this album is going to be their magnum opus, swear to God. THIS IS HUGEEE I love every aspect of this song, I wanna see a guitar and drum playthrough!!
Sorry but I have never heard somebody say or write this
10 years is still a short time for a singer to lose his range, give it a 10-15 more and they'll start downtuning their stuff. But once they decide to resort to that, I know Dan will still sound awesome because he's never only about range. It's all about expression and control.
Dan's vocals and overall production have been insane on the latest releases, however, in terms of pure songwriting nothing has "topped" Altered State/Polaris for my money thus far. I'm still waiting for Natural Disaster though, it slaps in the live clips I've heard.
They've set a tall bar for themselves so it's understandable.
Going to see them live again in February and I can't wait!
Is this a thing TesseracT fans have been saying? I've not heard this personally but some people just like to complain. Don't give them any attention 😅
@@Aenigmakil yeah I've seen it in some videos of them live, as well as like people who say he was better in Skyharbor, etc. I can't name just one place I've seen it bc I'm just everywhere when it comes to TesseracT content lol I am a huge fan of this band. People are so quick to judge when they don't actually sing or perform.
I can't remember the last time I was this excited about an album
I’m so obsessed with this song. Dan’s vocals are god tier, especially the part where he’s switching back and forth between screaming and falsetto. I can’t get enough of it
3:51 - "I have lost the battle on both sides"
Chills, just. Chills. Killed it Dan.
After many (many) listens of this record, im going to call it that it's my favorite of all Tess releases. I've been a fan since CF EP days, heard all the demos, followed Acle since Fellsilent, yada yada yada... I've never even heard a song that has captured me like this has, and every Tess song has something for me in it. Just an absolute masterpiece on all levels. This band has continuously raised the bar that much higher and there's no question this is Dan Tompkins best performance and arguably the highlight of his vocal career. Magnificent, extraordinary, captivating. 10/10. 😊
Wow I randomly clicked on a youtube recommendation and am SO IMPRESSED. Buying concert tickets because this was incredible. Had goosebumps the entire time.
i love that for you. welcome
congratulations man, listen to literally any of their albums and you will fall in love with them
Man I wish I could go back to first discovering Tesseract haha what a wild ride!
San Diego! Can't wait!
I’ve seen them live a few times. You won’t regret it.
The part where he screams "Lost the battle on both sides"... He sounds so pissed off but it's incredible. One of my favorite Dan screams.
This is the best vocal performance in Metal ever.
Imagine not knowing who Mike Patton is.
You need to listen to some progressive metal and reconsider this statement
Imagine not knowing Glen Hughes, Ronnie Dio and Jeff Scott Soto.
Gotta be able to do it live though
@@SammyMakepeacethat’s reserved for opera.
Genius. A single 2 days before the album to make sure max number of people realize the release and listen asap on yt/streaming to tell the algo that this is hot cakes (which it ofcourse is)
Listened to the track now and as soon as I heard “I’ve been dreaming” I felt whole, I really hope this whole album is tied into beneath my skin/mirror image
I love how Tesseract has been referencing their own discography, some people see it as a cheap lyric shortcut but I don't---I think there's creative ways to do it, and for me it's always SO SATISFYING
There is a story to this that we'll explain at some point.
@@twinny_miagreed! Not sure if it’s the same with lyrics but musical callbacks are called motifs and it’s a beautiful way to tie music together. Really does give that warm familiarity and ‘signature’ feel if done correctly that makes you smile.
@@nickslater3598you're totally right lmao I couldn't think of the right word!!
"I can't be further from endless life" is heard twice in their discography.
there's something so compelling to me about space exploration, the vaccuum of space, the search of meaning, and spirituality. Such a beautiful metaphor for the human condition.
Ah yes, that sweet sweet sound of Tesseract. I took a homeless guy to this show after he woke up on a park bench. We both enjoyed the show very much. If you get a chance to see them play live DO NOT pass it up. It's pretty spiritual.
Each album has its own sound, but the sound of this album is going to be the vocal transcendence of Dan Tompkins 🤘🏻
This is my first TesseracT song...and I had chills the entire time. Got tickets for the show in Charleston. Have your entire discography on repeat until the 6th!
Welcome, friend.
@kiingslayer9424 Welcome to the wonderful world of Tesseract!
Welcome to the family homie.
Dan has transcended to a new level. Holy carp
This might actually be their best album based on these three singles. Concealing Fate and Altered State will always hold a special place in my heart, but this is just incredible.
MY man!! this is amazing!! it has that utopia feeling!! we need a cover of this jeje
Early reviews are already calling this their magnum opus. I've never been this pumped for a new album, ever.
Going off War of Being and The Grey, I'm not surprised. Both tracks are just SO FUCKING GOOD
@@shanemaxwell1784 PLUS THIS TRACK BC WTF (came to the comments to also say this is their magnum opus)
3:26 - What the f*** is happening? ❤So many emotions flow through me, especially the last part of the song brings up a lot. My best friend and I both got a Tesseract tattoo with the last release "Sonder" in 2018. We shared our entire youth, more than 13 years, so we decided to do this. But so much has happened in the meantime. Covid, moving to another city, starting a family... today we have different attitudes to life. The contact became less and as of today we have had virtually no contact for more than one year. We lived apart. Sometimes it hurts. And it especially hurts when Tesseract makes such a strong song that reminds me of the times before the changes. I still love him and wish him all the best for his future life ❤
Ive been listening to metal for almost two decades now, prog rock and metal for about ten. The constuctive thought all these guys have is not just undeniable, its awe-inspiring. Spinning this for weeks now and still get goosebumps.
Bravo my dudes!🎉
yessssssssssssssssss
Most diverse vocal range in the history of any song ever.
This album is peak TesseracT, a summary of all their previous steps but with a fresh perspective. Amazing work from all the band, and what an incredible mix!
Bro it isn’t out yet hahaha
@@-jmac995 I've had a promo copy for a while now 🤘
3:27-4:05 is reaching Devin Townsend vocal gymnastics levels! Dan is on fire on this song 🔥
Better than Devin Townsend. Never liked his voice
@@TheG3neralLeeThere always has to be one.
@@LicoriceLain Differing opinions on a completely subjective thing? Of course there always has to be one
One big difference: Dev is nearing 60 years old and is still capable of those gymnastics live. We'll see bout Dan when he approaches that age...
@@TheG3neralLee We have a blasphemer amongst us.
THROWN INTO THE GREYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! Absolutely love that scream and the following riffs. TesseracT rules!
This song and video have been stuck in my head for a few days now. It's so simple but effective, the projection of the data on his face is a really cool and iconic image. The vocals are just incredible.
Inspired by the opening scene of the movie Alien (1979) when they do a similar projection of data on a helmet
@@klmauldincrazy how such a small detail in a scene can inspire so much.
I'm ready and I'm already in love with The Martian, Interstellar, 2001 and Alice in Chains' Hollow vibes in the teaser.
Wow what a track - chills in the back 1/3rd of the song as the buildup hits. Dan's vocals are obviously front and center here but the entire track composition is incredible. This is peak tesseract for me. Love this so much.
Yeah it seems the instrumentation is playing a supporting role while remaining very technical, groovy, ambient. Not a focus like in earlier albums.
I keep returning to this song. Every time you'd think that Dan has reached his peak vocal-wise, but man this song just blows me away. Incredible singer, and an incredible band. Can't wait to experience this live with their world tour.
Awesome, new TesseracT.
2:46 - 4:10 - Now that's just… something else, indescribable vocal work. I am left in tears with no exaggeration, all of my most intimate emotions emanated through another human's voice. The power of music, especially metal music.
Two different men but the emotional impact reminded me of Kyo of Dir En Grey.
TesseracT is one of the best bands I have had the pleasure of listening to since 2011/2012. I was also very big on Skyharbor back then.
I love how at 2:25 he is close to Earth's orbit getting ready to enter the atmosphere (helmet reflection)
i love TesseracT, but that section at 3:25 has to be my god damn favorite part of any song they’ve made. shit fucking slaps
The mixing on this track is phenomenal .. Everything is soo crystal clear and well balanced that you can differentiate each elements.. The drums, bass guitar and the ambient pads.. Vocals is the highlight, they have kept Dan's voice forward in the mix and this has to be his magnum opus for now
The ending is absolutely crazy. Tesseract has always set such a high bar for clean vocals but oh my god...
Can't wait for this banger of an Album!! No other band has really had this big of an impact and mindset in writing music! (At least for me) - Hype is real 🔥
for me only Sleep Token are in the same league.
@januszo.2180 One day I hope to catch them live too..
I've heard that they're iffy live (sleep token that is). I'm in a ST fangroup and I've heard mixed things 😅😅
@@twinny_mi probably! Tesseract live is perfection :) seen them. got a selfie with Dan. I can finally rest
@januszo.2180 lucky! Seen them a bunch of times but they're always near perfection live.
If i were Tesseract i'd be stressing about how exactly the sheer quality of thus album can be suppassed
Daniel is a beast but I can't get tired of the heavens work being done by Amos, specially in the 0:53 when he changes the note being played. It gives me massive goosebumps everytime I hear it.
GOOSEBUMPS
Dan's voice keeps getting better and better (and better, and better ...)
Im looking forward to playing this album in Loop while playing Starfield...
Gonna be epic
This is sooooo much better than that atrocious Imagine Dragons song they made for that game lol.
@@antaresvariant2306 imagine they took of matter - proxy 😳😍
you have an insane vocal range, i've literally never heard anyone transition from screams, to super highs, to normals, all back and forth with what seems to be very little effort, insane vocals holy moly
Another masterpiece! Also, love the lyrical tie-in with Legion and Mirror Image having the lines, “I’ve been dreaming… Anxious to the core…”
Acle being an absolute GOAT with the song production and amazing riffs on this one 💪
One of the best vocalists I’ve heard in a long time. Fuck me dead.
holy.... f..... when the timer hits 3:10+ and the red warning lights starts to blink, what a mindblowing amazing track, it had the hairs on my body almost go electric.
Everything about this album begs for more listens, and this track is pure feeling for me. Thank you for this masterpiece
Daniel casually killing everything with these mad vocals. Damn, that was epic.
Saw this at the album preview event and I've been counting down the hours until I could see it again, unreal track and video
Is it another return to the djent days???
I can't put into words how beautiful this song is. Dan's vocals on this is mindblowing! I can't wait to hear this album in full!
I just heard this song today, doing so while washing dishes. I literally cried as soon as the vocals on the bridge section hit. No song has done that to me in years.
Played this video for my five year old daughter as a lullaby the other night.
"Did he crashed the spaceship, daddy?"
"Probably, but he's ok I think!"
I'm usually not a fan of screams & such, but when Dan sounds so desperate it's quite alright.
Dan should win Grammy 100% for best vocal performance.
3:20 on is just vocal insanity. I love it. I can’t even focus on the other phenomenal performances. I know Jay, Acle, James, and Amos are all doing something amazing and flawless. But Dan is just going on this insane wild ride of techniques.
I had the pleasure of experiencing this live in Tampa, Dan and the entire band gave it their all!
This is absolutely one of my favorite songs to come out in a long time. This song is so good! It gives me chills!
I have very little words in my vocabulary to adequately describe what a stunner of a track this is. It's just an astounding piece of art that I will cherish for years to come. Thank you guys! See you in Oslo again.
Siiiiick 🖤🔥 Dan has a really wide vocal range. Beautiful angelic high notes.
Daniel is a BEAST! This is pure emotion. One of the songs of the year for sure. Amazing!
I almost can't believe what I'm hearing... This is incredible
This vocal is next level, amazing
Freaking out inside the suite. Awesome!!!!! I was screaming with him.
“I’ve been dreaming
Anxious to the core
I don’t want to feel this way
Same as yesterday”
Every time I hear that line I get chills. Hits me so hard.
By vocals, maybe the best song I've ever heard. There's so much nuances in one song, it's phenomenal. This is not just a song, this is true vocal art. I'm amazed.. Thank you! ❤❤❤
One of the best performances by Daniel! Soooo expressive! Awesomeeee!
This song is like a handmade luxury watch with all the little gears turning at different speeds but they all work together to make the second hand turn.
this is incredible Dan, your best vocal performance ever
The 3.27 performance is extrodionary! I have no words!!
Dan's vocals have just gone up to the next dimension on this album, man. Holy shit, what a masterpiece. I can't stop listening to it.
This is the greatest TesseracT song of all time.
I love how I can still hear Fellsilent DNA in this. Acle is one of my favorite guitarists of all time.
the vocal harmonies done halfway through Burden remind me of Fellsilent's Immerse
3:26 this whole end section is some of the best music Ive ever heard in my life. and that high at 3:48 is so pretty!! the vocal layering at 4:05 to the end is soooo good. Tesseract keeps outdoing themselves. and Dan's vocals are both angelic and brutal at the same time. tbh i think this is Dan's best work, yes even better than War of Being IMO. glad i pre-ordered this record.
That ending sequence is just 🔥. Everytime I hear that section along with the high vibrato I just get Mars Volta vibes up my spine and even some Daniel Gildenlow vibes. Love it!
They just keep getting better. It's actually personally inspiring.
Been listening to metal for over 40 years. Started listing to this track last week. After around 30 to 40 plays I can say that this one of the most compete vocal performances I have ever listened to. The lyrics are incredible, melody very intricate but make it sound so simple. Vocal changes are off the charts. 😳😳😳😳. This is perfection. 🙏🙏🙏🤟🤟🤟🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
Goosebumps EVERYWHERE. This was insane, Dan has blown my mind about vocal capacity. Can't wait for the album!!!!!
The climax toward the end of the song is unbelievable on all fronts (vocally and instrumentally). I legit sobbed listening to it. And the nod to Mirror Image is such a nice touch here as well. Incredible work to all involved, seriously.
The vocals on this album are next level
That vocal part gives me chills every time. Similar to end of War of Being.
Dan's vocals are absolutely mind blowing. This song takes you for a ride of unbelievable highs and lows.
Christ Daniel, those vocals rip my soul apart. ❤
Mesa tonight! I know it’s later in the tour I hope Dan can still bring it on Legion. Best Tesseract song to date!
Hands down one of the greatest vocal performances I've ever heard in my almost 42 years of living.
I've been a massive Tesseract fan since One and it blows my mind how they keep getting better and better with every album.
Loved their second vocalist but glad to OG man has made his return and reached even new levels along with the rest of the band.
THIS GAVE ME GOOSEBUMPS. I can't wait any longer, I need this album! Incredible music. Born in the right generation.
Listening to this song on repeat because no other song can reach this level. Perfect in every way
When you're high and you're like, yeah I can totally karaoke this!
Tesseract, periphery, vildhjarta e polyphia changed my life, i'm so hyped for this e the album lfg!!
Man! I simply can NOT stop coming back to this song AND video. The music is pure art...the lyrics, the emotion behind them when you sing them...beautiful and heavy...and you feel it so. The video, simple....yet dazzlingly so. Can't keep your eyes off the screen. It's like, you're in a trance that you never want to be taken out of and are pissed when the ship of a ride comes to a landing and you have to get off the ride....but you stand right back in line to enjoy the ride again ❤
