    The "other guy" (guitarist) is Pierre Danel. He's in a band called Kadinja and the guitar work from both him and Quentin Godet (a guitarist also in Ten56) is on a whole other level. Massively underrated band and highly encourage anyone reading this to check them out. Songs I'd recommend are "GLHF" for the more technical and "Til the Ground Disappears" for the absolutely insane. Other great tracks: "From The Inside", "The Modern Rage", "Empire"

      Kadinja is amazing, and so is Ten56. Fun fact, Nico (the bass player for Novelists) is also in Ten56.

  • @FlareFoot57

    I'm really digging their change in direction, with its blues influences and overall amped up energy. I do feel these new tracks still struggle with their sometimes awkward transitions. The breakdown into chorus in "Lost Cause", the verse into pre-chorus (albeit a really cool pre-chorus) in "Do you really want to know", and the first solo into chorus in this track. I think "Terrorist" avoids this issue, and is probably my favorite of their new releases. Still very excited for the future of this band.

    • @wetpoopoo9412
      @wetpoopoo9412 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      They've always had a bluesy influence. You can really tell in the leads/solo. When I was learning the Gravity solo, I was surprised with how many blues licks that were strung together. Pentatonic's are timeless.

    That final solo *NEEDED* to be longer, I got the exact same expression as you when it suddenly cut off, Nik.
    It's got a cool groove and the chorus is catchy, but what the heck man, end it on a high note!

    Found out about Novelists back in 2016-2017 w/ “Immedicable” and was instantly hooked. Mattéo Gelsomino has since been one of my favorites vocalists of the genre. I was def. surprised and unsatisfied when I heard de decided to quit the band, but listening to these new songs w/ the new vocalists (ex-Alazka), I can def. see myself enjoying this new album. They’re def. experimenting w/ new things, which we can see w/ the poppy vibes, electronics, guitar solos and even Nico doing backing vocals; but it adds a cool touch to this new chapter of them. I’m hopeful this new album won’t disappoint.
