Cpmnk Rudinger is a beast!. I remember when he was in Threat Signal. The drums on their last record were fucking brilliant! He didn't last long though unfortunately. He joined The Faceless and well now he's not in The Faceless either lol.
I can't really think in a better band than this one, maybe The Dillinger Escape Plan or STYG, but I really don't know, in terms of musicality this band is better than any other band in Sumerian.
Alonso IndieGrin instrument-wise, they're one of the better ones, yes, but the vocals ruin the band for me. it's a shame, I know, but I just can't get over the way the vocals were placed over the instrument tracks. also AAL is apart of sumerian, too, so I think they have some strict competition with Tosin. the reason I would say that I prefer Animals as Leaders over The Faceless isn't due to the vocals though. My reasoning behind that is the actual playing style of the guitars. The Faceless is more generic and predictable whereas Animals as Leaders (or Tosin Abasi if you wanna look at it like it's his solo project) is very creative and original with their writing. They push more boundaries than The Faceless does
Chance Arnold-Gonzales i forgot about AAL, and i have to admit it, theyre more original at least if you count the latest album of the faceless, but for me the lastes album of AAL wasnt that good, it sounded a little bit messy, plus as a band the faceless is better, michael keene is a talented guitarist, evan is a talented bassist, the unclean vocals are perfect and the drums are more than average, "Planetary Duallity" was almost a technical death metal masterpiece, "autotheism" was perfect too, but it lacks a little bit of originality, but still is almost a perfect progressive album. at the end of the day the two bands deserve the first place is just matter of taste i guess.
Alonso IndieGrin The Faceless are one the most original death/progressive metal bands ever, they have a completely original sound. I haven't heard anyone do something so weird yet so beautiful on the guitar as michael keene. So saying they aren't original is just dumb.
This fucking band makes me moist. I never got into them before but their newest album which I recently discovered is a fucking masterpiece. I listened to their earlier stuff and didn't like it but I've grown to appreciate it a lot more especially with their last release. I can't wait for the new record!
Kevin Uchiha I found this band has progressively gotten better (no pun intended). Their debut was good but it doesn't hold a candle to their last two albums or even their latest song.
Hello sirs, allow me to provide a cover of this song, and support my small channel, thank you all, you are great 🔥🤘 th-cam.com/video/V0vvpMYPS1k/w-d-xo.html
Was getting back into ATB decided to look into "similar artists" that I may have overlooked and this band popped up. I'm giddy listening to this, it's fantastically insane!
I just discoverered this band, I found them really amazing ! I don't really appreciate the clean vocals but.. We can hear that they work hard to produce great songs !
ça fait des années que j'écoute The Faceless et que je découvre d'autres groupes, mais franchement The Faceless restent malgré tout mes préférés, c'est très intéressant à apprendre à la guitare en plus de ça, un pur régal je ne m'en lasserai jamais ! Merci de nous permettre d'écouter cela ❤ (ENGLISH BELOW) ---------------------------- I've been listening to The Faceless for years and discovering other bands, but frankly The Faceless is still my favorite, it's very interesting to learn the guitar on top of that, a pure delight I'll never get tired of it!

Everything faceless wrote is extremely inspired and talented music, if you disagree you have no idea about music, or you have the wrong idea of them in your head. People should stop taking reviews so seriously and start judging by their own without prejudices. An honest opinion. -A guy mainly listening to Necrophagist, everything Bach wrote, Obscura, Ne Obliviscaris, Belakor, Nevermore, Devin townsend, Spawn of Possesion, Alkaloid.
@@denniscurtis2934 there is no "the" in deftones. and yeah, lots of death metal singers cup the mic to get a deeper sound. hence, the 28 like on the OPs comment....and the ......2.....on yours.
@@Menoetius. must be why lots of professional death metal singers do it....because it does nothing. link me to your death metal band so i can see you do it properly! you think death metal vocalists are going for vocal integrity during a live performance? they are trying to sound as disgusting as possible.
That was sick live performance ❤️ fun story. I once messaged you guys on MySpace with my metal band that was trying to sound like you guys/ failing very hard. Anyways I think I asked for feedback on how we sounded and someone replied: “NARF”
Angel Espinoza Keene may be a solid guitarist, but his singing is fucking awful, his writing has zero fucking restraint and he has no idea how to do any sort of prog writing (I dare you to tell me that the saxophones on this record help). Townsend is an average guitarist, one of the best singers in rock/metal history and has proven himself as a great songwriter with a lot of depth and variety. What world are you on where Keene is better than Townsend at anything besides straight 16th solos? You're like those guys that think Metallica is the best metal band ever because it's the only metal they listen to.
NE Obliviscaris have 2 vocalists check out track called Forget Not starts acoustical, gets brutal by the end. Australian band with French guitarist ! ! !
I don't really care what everyone says about this album, it's a damn masterpiece in my eyes.
its because youve been reading the wrong comments. This is a masterpiece of pure musical sexiness =,
Ari Bro Finally someone that agrees with me!
Fucking a bro ! Fucking A Metal555Fan
All of their albums are fucking amazing this one is just even more awesome lol
Metal555Fan thought the same dude. Listened to this album for a very long time. I was hooked for a while
the drummer looks so happy, it makes me happy
Marco Minneman is damn happier :D
Watch Joey Baron. He will make you ecstatic!
+Salih Günay marco minneman " golden dolphin"
Cpmnk Rudinger is a beast!. I remember when he was in Threat Signal. The drums on their last record were fucking brilliant! He didn't last long though unfortunately. He joined The Faceless and well now he's not in The Faceless either lol.
I still remember without a vocalist epic the same
That chorus never fails to send chills down my everything.
This is undoubtedly one of the best tech death metal musics I've ever heard. Creative, difficult to play, epic lyric, powerfully energising and dark!
Jesus, this was posted over 9 years ago...and I literally remember that night like it was yesterday.
I love it how Alex is always smiling whenever they play. So awesome.
Best band from this record label, and one of the best metal bands nowadays.
I can't really think in a better band than this one, maybe The Dillinger Escape Plan or STYG, but I really don't know, in terms of musicality this band is better than any other band in Sumerian.

If a band plays metal with two Jacksons, it's already an epic win.

I listened to their earlier stuff and didn't like it but I've grown to appreciate it a lot more especially with their last release. I can't wait for the new record!
Lurch Murphy i think if you listen to P.Duality again, the more you do, the more u r in love with it. You would find yourself amazed.
You out your mind morbid angel guy (one of the best bands ever btw) planetary duality is their best offering and all the Faceless shit is great.
+Lurch Murphy The new one is the worst one.
+Evil naah, their first is. But i would say there is no "worst" when it comes to faceless, just "less fucking awesome".
Kevin Uchiha I found this band has progressively gotten better (no pun intended). Their debut was good but it doesn't hold a candle to their last two albums or even their latest song.
Wes is seriously one of the best metal players today. he has literally perfect technique.
Cleanest picking in the game.
Those clean vocals are fantastic!
How the fuck you understand them fr
No they're not. I mean that as the vocals might be good for what they are, but they're out of place
Hello sirs, allow me to provide a cover of this song, and support my small channel, thank you all, you are great 🔥🤘 th-cam.com/video/V0vvpMYPS1k/w-d-xo.html
Every time Michael Keene sings it makes me think of South Park. Cartoonish and super silly. Can't deny the man's riffs, he's really amazing
FAKE! They have faces!
They're just a bunch of phonies... Big Fat Phonies!!!!!!
"hey everyone! these guys are big fat phonies!"
André Tavares holy shit I lost it haha

The re-recorded clean vocal part sounds so much better, and I liked the added vocoder @ 1:25
What do you mean re-recorded? This is the album version of the song.
Everyone talking crap but this is still a sick album and Jeffrey has sick ass vocals.
One of my favorite songs by then, it has a pretty good flow with the guitar riffs, drums, bass, and vocals!!
Not much stage presence from these guys but it is surreal to see such masterfully crafted music played so flawlessly.
Keene is the fuckin man, I can't wait for that cover album they're making to come out.
Cattle Decap. Nice...
They should do a live DVD/CD, I would pick that up SO fast
CDs are SO 7 years ago
ça fait des années que j'écoute The Faceless et que je découvre d'autres groupes, mais franchement The Faceless restent malgré tout mes préférés, c'est très intéressant à apprendre à la guitare en plus de ça, un pur régal je ne m'en lasserai jamais !

These melodies really speak out to me. Amazing band, really..
I never realized when listening to TF back in the day, but Rudinger is like a teenager and the best drummer on the planet at the time.
This song and this band are stupid good.
What a great album! Glad this track got a good video!
I still think the best music videos are just well-shot live clips.
I love this band.
Michael... Alex... so awesome!
This' just awesome. Now come to Portugal already!
Awesome Devin Townsend album... and The Faceless song! :)
Everytime I listen to this
I feel like a beast!
This is the most talented metal I have ever heard 🖤
Damn this song is sick. People told me their new stuff wasn't good
they lied... a lot IMO
*****
correct, I think they matured with autotheism.
Judge it for yourself . Some people just go with what others say... I dig this so far! Will listen to the album after this is done.
Hand in hand with clean vocals came Åkerfeldt-like look. Coincidence?

I saw this tour in Detroit, and all the bands threw down at the majestic hard.
Man I loved this song when I listened to the album... and they made a video for it!
Oh my god this is beautiful. First time listening.
The vocalist doesn't cup the mic. That's pretty awesome.
cup the mic? this isnt the deftones

Incredible band!
clean vocals sounds like Devin Townsend influence
Seeing them at The Observatory this year!
Michael Keene is even trying to LOOK like Akerfelt now
+flerper derper lol true
+flerper derper xD
I'm not keene on his vocals. I think Akerfeldt's vocals work for Opeth but Keene's don't for The Faceless.
Theyre all trying to go for that jesus look. That innocent, sophisticated, i drink wine and only read books type of look
flerper derper who the fuck is Akerfeldt
What a sick lineup this was though, honestly.
id take evan on bass and westmoreland on drums for my favorite faceless lineup.
That show was epic! Who remembers BTBAMs encore too?
these slow solos are wonderful
I thought the bald guy was just setting up the mic until I saw him screaming
+Richard Santiago hahahaha, this made me laugh
I think the bald guy is Derek Rydquist
@@stalkerktz Wrong. This guys name is Geoff Ficco
My new favorite band
amazing
That whole show was awesome!
-sounds like Devin Townsend-
-DTP has an album called Accelerated Evolution-
coincidence? I think not
+Abraham Owen Everyone has an inspiration
+hayden r very true lol. I can definitely hear the influence, and honestly. it works hahah
Saw y'all tonight sic performance, Alex is a robot!
3:50 Vocalist's arms looks like drummer's legs :)
hahahahahhahahahaha
bro wtf? hahahaha
Great song, from a great group
Fuckin love these guys. Still can't believe I saw them in my first show
totalement enchanté....je l'aime bien...!!
total respect!
Will always be my favorite song from these guys.its so fucking amazing!
Alex makes you guys sound 100 times better, super solid!!!! Could be the best drummer in the metal world (I do love Thomas haake tho) ;)
btw i hope you realise that its lyle cooper your hearing in that video not alex
^ , also, u can't put thomas haake, and alex rudinger on the same sentence, except if you are saying that haake is 100 times better.
Jesus Christ
idk who recorded Akeldama the song, but whoever it was, the best he was.
Lenny Lou St-Hilaire Rousseau lyle is faster n beter of both of them
Sweet jissus. This still kiiiicks
This whole band is ridiculous 🤘
Not a huge modern technical death metal fan, but this is awesome! I can definitely hear the Dream Theater influence
Wrong DT....more like devin townsend
I saw this tour!!
That was sick live performance ❤️
fun story. I once messaged you guys on MySpace with my metal band that was trying to sound like you guys/ failing very hard. Anyways I think I asked for feedback on how we sounded and someone replied: “NARF”
The album was incredible Grammy worthy
Best line up they had..
I think I like this band so much because it reminds me of Opeth / Akerfelt
Love it!
this video is awesome it looks like it was filmed in the 90s!
The Bassless????
+Doug Plaisance No bass
+Doug Plaisance Invest in some nice speakers. I hear the bass clearly.
+Daniel Hemingway they meant on stage, bass is clearly in the mix
Ah, I see.
Awesome, nice work boys
Masterpiece
where is even Brewer?
he kicked himself off the tour.
Best line up they had
Awesome, especially clean vocals
It's a good time to be a metalhead biology-student :D
Mr. perfection!
Wes Hauch is omnipresent
Too freaking awesome :D
Michael Keene sounds like Devin Townsend LOL
Except that Devin's clean singing has power and isn't one-dimensional :/
Devin Townsend is shit compared the Michael the Machine Keene
Angel Espinoza Keene may be a solid guitarist, but his singing is fucking awful, his writing has zero fucking restraint and he has no idea how to do any sort of prog writing (I dare you to tell me that the saxophones on this record help).

SyncopatedFin Townsend is a phenomenal guitar player, but I agree with everything else. Devin just doesn't show off a lot
Yep. I posted that he sounds like Devin too. Good call.
I love this cx
Technical Death Metal high quality, hasil from Indonesia 🇮🇩
this a sick track man, love it, impressive he can sing while playyhing that inzane shit
It's happening now. The awakening of recessed potential
beautiful music
I never thought their new stuff will be good 9 3/4
Increible video, saludos weon! xd
I wish there was a proshot like this of the entirew show
The best formation actually
Great band.
3:02 For a moment there i thought that was Freddy Mercury
Freddy is enjoying some good music
How could they record with such clean and clarity if this was live? Did they record sound separately?
yohanes ronald yes, it's just the studio track and many clips of their performance.
Nice song i love this
finally some gud music
Sick.
NE Obliviscaris have 2 vocalists
check out track called
Forget Not
starts acoustical, gets brutal by the end.
Australian band with French guitarist
!
!
!
An autopsy and leica are my faves but I guess this new style will work
Göttlich 🙏
ufff pero que pinche technical melodico y poderoso el de esta banda
y que matizes de voz. 0:53
Amazing !! ★★★★★
Discovered this masterpiece in 2021 \m/
Kind of reminds me of Necrophagist meets Opeth, good bands, just not crazy about either.
