Bands are always evolving. Alissa left. So was The Agonist just supposed to stop making music? Sure it's different. But every band goes through changes throughout their careers. Even when their lead vocals stay in the band. I dig the new sound. If they replaced Alissa with someone who sounded exactly like her we'd all be like....?? I like Vicky. A lot. For what the band is now.
I'm a fan of The Agonist since Once Only Imagined. The Agonist is one of my favorites bands. I liked with Alissa but with Vicky ... The Agonist is better .. I love it, I love her voice, the music, the lyrics, the image, is all new.. and is fine for me, I like a lot. lml >__< lml
Sacrimony I don't know, I hate that song xD probably Dead Ocean or Revenge Of the Dadaists are pieces of art, but ideomotor just feels like Alissa was trying so hard to fit her lyrics on the instrumental track
Ya van a empezar a decir que Alissa era mejor que Vicky ya dejense de esas mierdas ambas son geniales y tienen su propio estilo and they will start commenting that Alissa was better than Vicky let yourself of those shits both are great and have their own style
Real fan does not mean liking everything a band does. Any actual fan will admit that this is far from as great as Prisoners/Lulabies, regardless of if he likes it or not.
If being a real fan is eating up all the stuff the band puts out without question, you're damn right I'm not a "real" fan, I'll be just a simple fan. Eye Of Providence wasn't as bad, but I just don't like the last album and the direction they're taking. The irony? Tomorrow night I'll be seeing them with Epica and Fleshgod Apocalypse, so I hope they'll play some old stuff too (as they did last year when I saw them with Eluveitie, they played some Eye Of Providence and some classics).
Stinker4583 at least they sound different in each album and aren't repetitive. I love all of the albums they've made. I still respect your opinion even if I don't agree.
So... according to the dates in the end... is this related to David Bowie? Sorry if it's obvious or a stupid question, but is he "the man who fell to earth"?
I don't really mind the changes since Alissa left. I did like her a bit better, but they're still good. The sound change that's happened isn't really bad, just different. So many purists get way too set in their ways to enjoy something new.
Sorry the longing people, but bands move on, they change, people change. Vicky is a far better singer than Alissa, she has far more range and knowledge on how to use her voice in such different ways, that is, for me, evolution for the band as a whole. I really understand the folks that says that miss Alissa and stuff, me as a Trivium fanboy, was very disappointed when Matt slowed down on screaming, but after listening again again to the new albums I started to appreciate and understand the evolution in sound quality for the band as a whole. Agonist with Alissa was pretty aggressive, it had those major hits, but most of the album was just Nu Metal from 90's with very few clean vocals and rap style singing, sorry guys, that's does not involve anyone, it's like impossible to learn a song with vocals you can't even understand. Well, that's just my opinion.
Vocals are really good but the instrument doesn't allow us to make sense whether it's prog style heavy or slow style. All in all vickys voice is good and she's improving
Soulrunners1Freerun agreed. I was really looking forward to this one because I loved eye of providence so much but I only liked two songs. It's sucks because this used to be one of my favorite bands :/
indeed, Eye of Providence was excellent melodic death metal and it was by far the best The Agonist album, and to me one of the best albums that whole year. This isn't that good to me, not at all. btw: the new Dark Tranquillity album is amazing
I have been warming up to this album, but it's taken longer for me than most Agonist albums. It's certainly no Eye of Providence, but it does have some good tracks.
This song isn't really convincing anyone that this band has gotten better but I understand the dedication that was made towards David Bowie. With that said this should be made the official lyric video instead. Boy how the Agonist have fallen look where they are today use to be one of my favorite bands too. It's sad really!
Alissa drew quite a fine line between her cleans and uncleans, and then Vicky hlurred that line bere and took it to another level to highlight the agony of loss, that's why I love this song so much
I really don't like comparing and arguing about (in case of any band) which singer (old or new) is better, but in this case I have to say that new Agonist's songs really sucks and without Alissa they are not Agonist anymore :( Big pitty, you were my favourite band.
Ivana Karabová well you're actually just comparing right now. Alissa wasn't the entire band and that chapter ended with her and now this is a brand new chapter with Vicky instead. I love the new album and at least every album sounds different unlike so many bands out there.
Samer T. Alissa was almost the entire band, she was the former writer and put all her passion to the lyrics. The agonist has lost their essence, all that crazyness. Nowadays The agonist is another band of a lot
***** ehhh no! When Arch enemy hired Alissa to be part of them She immidiately quit from The agonist. Indeed in her official page she wrote about that situation.
Alissa is shit since she left the agonist and she went to arch over the band not getting on together, a story of words from both ends we will never really get the right answers to so no point trying make out one source is more right than the other lol
RIP David Bowie, in case you didn't know that this song is based on a movie of his.
Vicky now knows how to bring out her correct voice, she´s using it right!
Vicky's unclean highlights so far: #theManWhoFellToEarth #theMoment #aNecessaryEvil #ArchitectsHallucinate #DisconnectMe #PerpetualNotion
Issela Santina The Trial and the rest of the songs by her lmao
could be the theme to a bond movie
This could be the Best Bond Ever ;)

Great! i like the lyrics and colours ;) It's a special song btw. Good job.
Con este tipo canciones la voz Dr vicky y todos sus recursos (como respy voice, vocal fry etc) van de maravilla

ger ppqi I feel the same way. Alyssa is a better fit with Arch Enemy.
ger ppqi nah
Agreed
great song!
vicki is awesome, too!
Vamos ver se gosto dessa.
Great song
Album Five Great
New album kicks ass!
Adore this song, and really cool vid. Love it!
Agonizingly beautiful...
lol, I really can't believe that people find this boring, so basically they prefer random-sounding songs like Ideomotor?
Ideomotor "random-sounding" ? Ideomotor is a piece of art.
DevourSlumber I didn't mean the lyrics :) Alissa is my absolute favorite lyric writer, I'm the talking about the song itself
Sacrimony I don't know, I hate that song xD probably Dead Ocean or Revenge Of the Dadaists are pieces of art, but ideomotor just feels like Alissa was trying so hard to fit her lyrics on the instrumental track

and they will start commenting that Alissa was better than Vicky let yourself of those shits both are great and have their own style
Jhonatan herrera osea si evolucionó pero de mal en peor! esto no se compara para nada a lo que era the agonist, esta cancion parece hard rock.
Caca Man Jajaja es mejor que la mierda esa de metalcore que era antes ahora al menos conbinan diferentes estilos
si han cambiando un montón pero ...sinceramente esta mejor ahora ;)
TOTALMENTE DE ACUERDO!!! LAS DOS SON GENIALES!!!
making light bulbs metal af lol
The Agonist is awesome band Alissa and Vicky are both great
Entre más escucho esta canción más me gusta!!!!
Pensé que iban a salir tocando
Love this song
Alissa please come back... I miss you!
Overall good job.
God I miss the "Prisoners" and "Lullabies...." days...
Midnou24 God how I miss real fans.

Midnou24 I'm with you man,eye od Providence was acceptable but this is just Commercialized garbage,its unacceptable
they should rename the title to official lyrics video
Creí que ya no ha ian música hasta que me di cuenta que cambiaron a napalm records-saludos desde México
Firmaron Contrato Con *Napalm Records* Y Aparte; El *Album Ya Salió El 30 De Sep.
MansonCore666 era que se queden en centrury media
musicas incriveis tem esta banda, apesar desta ser muito devagar.
☆💋"VICKY"💋☆
So... according to the dates in the end... is this related to David Bowie?
Sorry if it's obvious or a stupid question, but is he "the man who fell to earth"?
Yes.
Clyde Graves Ooooukay. Well then :D
There's an explanation on Danny Marino's facebook(alternatively on TA's interview with Metal Discovery)
Ren Aaah, thanks :D
Danny told me himself on Twitter as well, but I hadn't asked if they watched the similarly titled movie :)
First time hearing this song
I fucking love it !
I don't really mind the changes since Alissa left. I did like her a bit better, but they're still good. The sound change that's happened isn't really bad, just different. So many purists get way too set in their ways to enjoy something new.
Woooooooooooooooooooooooooo :O
Pas mal! Dommage pour les caractères du lyrics qui sont un peu dur a lire pour réduire
AWESOMENESS \m/\m/
This is painful, nice blueprint to deconstruct a classic
Sorry the longing people, but bands move on, they change, people change. Vicky is a far better singer than Alissa, she has far more range and knowledge on how to use her voice in such different ways, that is, for me, evolution for the band as a whole.

Well, that's just my opinion.
And this one is called "Official VIDEO"? You must be joking...
Mmm the grit :D
Amei! E o video ficou lindo
Yesss!! I could do it I could sing it!!
Vicky is not a bad vocalist.
❤❤❤
Reminds me Alice in Chains.
Primer comentario hahaha buen video chicos de the agonist
El estilo cambio un poco pero sigue siendo una buena banda :b
nice
Vocals are really good but the instrument doesn't allow us to make sense whether it's prog style heavy or slow style. All in all vickys voice is good and she's improving
Does it really matter as long as it's good music?
Why not both?
prophecy
bond james bond
super godddddd!
where's the bass? yes i know,its recorded,we can hear it,but it's...dead.
NICE...but this is a lyric vid =\
The new album sucks. Eye of Providence was better.
Soulrunners1Freerun agreed. I was really looking forward to this one because I loved eye of providence so much but I only liked two songs. It's sucks because this used to be one of my favorite bands :/
indeed, Eye of Providence was excellent melodic death metal and it was by far the best The Agonist album, and to me one of the best albums that whole year. This isn't that good to me, not at all. btw: the new Dark Tranquillity album is amazing
Hurray for the new DT album !
I have been warming up to this album, but it's taken longer for me than most Agonist albums. It's certainly no Eye of Providence, but it does have some good tracks.

Eye of Providence was a lot better , what happened here it sounds terrible for me
I miss Alissa Agonist...:::::::(
The Agonist ... the style that I preffere them ... not like her new album !!!
I love the agonist, but this is a real peace of thrash, vicky's voice sounds like if she has been raped during the recording
Ruben Zamorano Aguilar dude her voice sounds raspy. Go listen to other vocalists like Stevie Nicks!
No way! I LOVE her raspy voice personally.
Alissa drew quite a fine line between her cleans and uncleans, and then Vicky hlurred that line bere and took it to another level to highlight the agony of loss, that's why I love this song so much
._. wat
Vicky sounds so :Q____
u must play a fukin blues?....this a death metal band:((((add bieber and we can make a fukin great party 2gether
Didnt you guys use to play metal ? Wow sad nose dive
They do though? This song and the raven eyes are exceptions on this album
I really don't like comparing and arguing about (in case of any band) which singer (old or new) is better, but in this case I have to say that new Agonist's songs really sucks and without Alissa they are not Agonist anymore :( Big pitty, you were my favourite band.

this song is very... boring...
utwór chujowy, a cały album wyszedł im bardzo średnio.
She' sounds like she's struggling to sing this😂😂
graypaw100 You have to clean your ears because this is a raspy voice. She isn't struggling 😐
It's a mourning song, she's crying EVERYTHING out and that's why it sounds like she's struggling to melodically scream the lyrics into the void
oh god! this band went to hell with Alissa's departure
Yup.
Samer T. Alissa was almost the entire band, she was the former writer and put all her passion to the lyrics. The agonist has lost their essence, all that crazyness. Nowadays The agonist is another band of a lot
sorry to break it to u but Alissa got kicked out of the agonist. that's what I read on her Wikipedia page.
***** ehhh no! When Arch enemy hired Alissa to be part of them She immidiately quit from The agonist. Indeed in her official page she wrote about that situation.
Alissa is shit since she left the agonist and she went to arch over the band not getting on together, a story of words from both ends we will never really get the right answers to so no point trying make out one source is more right than the other lol
Alissa was way better drums are ok vocals are eeh 4/10 guitar 5/10
Up untill the singer starts singing the song felt really good, and then she started singing. What a disappointment
Love this song
