@@Nile8765 I can only guess: Brian mostly used shortscale guitars like Jaguars or SGs, so it makes sense to use standard 10 gauge string set plus separate .013 gauge string for high C.
This band amazes me. Such a level of technical knowledge and discipline, every note has it's purpose. The way they dring dramatic changes and build tension! But it requires one to develop a taste, more you listen, more you hear their music. How do they write their songs? You can't just sit with a guitar and say "hey, listen to this rif". This is the closest to the classical music that I have heard recently.
These guys are awesome! My first time hearing them live, and I'm really impressed. They're recordings are so tight and complex that I thought they wouldn't be able to pull them off live. But this was pretty darn tight. Great sound, great band.
As a technical death metal nut with only music of that genre in my collection at this point, Vektor showed me that thrash still has hope. Just ordered three shirts.
Tuned up to F and more badass than many other band based on downtuning.. and amazing technique combined with real emotional riffs. These guys deserve more.
BunchesBundles77 lol they got pretty much cancelled because the singer I think is a wife beater. We can live off of the albums we already have though, they’re masterpieces all of them
After all this time, when you thought you've listened to everything, one band comes along and still fucking amazes you with it's uniqueness and awesomeness, spraying your brain all over the place \,,/
It's incredible the sound that comes from this band. One of the best things I've listened in my life. Reminds a Brazilian band called Violator. Love both bands. Long life Vektor.
How the hell he sings while playing this is mind-bending. I know it's not this album, but Terminal Redux will go down as a cornerstone of metal in future IMO. I hope they get back on track as a band, I really do.
Skeletonwitch, Havok, Vektor, and Tantara. Even though Tantara has only released one album. it stands head and shoulders above anything Revocation has ever done. In the coming years, I believe they will easily take their place in the big four of modern thrash.
Tantara can't write a good song to save their lives. They can write killer riffs all day, but sometimes less really is more. Listen to Exumer's "The Raging Tides"
7/14/2014: The Outer Space, Hamden, CT- I got a good look at some great talent and performance ability in the manifestation that is Vektor & made a point to seek out and compliment the frontman afterwards that night; hell yeah I bought a t-shirt...keep an eye and an ear out for these guys near you!
@@user-in2qv1tw1r Vektor technically never even disbanded properly, there was just a bit of a hiatus between 2016 -2020. Erik the original second guitarist rejoined along with Stephen on bass and Mike on Drums and they've been playing some killer live shows since. I've seen them 3 times now and it's been amazing every time. I think we're all just very keen to get a new album from them now as it's been a long time but I'm almost certain it will be out this year.
I can easily put these guys on my top 5 metal bands. This is something to put an mark on an entirely generation. Yeah just like Iron Maiden or Dissection these atmospheric riffs and the cosmic theme are for sure an identity to stay in history. Not the amount of audience but the capacity of sinthetize endorphin in brains. Amazing. Cheers from Brazil sorry about my bad english
@@killthesource4740 A lot of metal is quite comprehensible once you get into it properly. I have a better time understanding Death and growling Opeth than Vektor, though.
Who cares? You listen to metal because you want to know what are you signing? If so, I guess ignorance is a bless... I'm mexican and just care about the music, not lyrics.
@@OrlandoSunBro Shitty way to go about listening to metal, especially Vektor. The lyrics are half the enjoyment of the song, especially with these guys who have fucking fantastically written songs.
@@suylyath2658 Are you sayin' we have to take the same approach? Understanding the lyrics and music? If so, half of the death metal would be followed by psychos, killers, etc...see my point?
spacerobot we'll learn together and make the greatest thrash band ever and take over the world. we'll change the music industry forever. we will be forever known as the band that brought on the golden age of thrash that lasted centuries.. you dont live in Australia do you.
Yeah, I can definitely see that too; I know my voice would be terrible after touring - but then I'm not a great vocalist anyway. Agreed though, his voice is great, even if not quite album quality!
@@killthesource4740 it's a dumb comment. We all know what the vocalist/ guitarist did. Either listen, or don't. I don't think it's right either, but I separate the music from it. How do you think people listen to Ted Nugent?
@@psychedelicfright85 I think you misunderstood my comment. I made it 3 years ago before all that happened. I just meant I feel useless when I hear them play because of their skill level lol. Still a huge Vektor fan, one of my favourite bands.
from all the live videos Ive seen of these guys, Dave seems to be doing better vocals live than he was previously when they released black future. If anything hes getting better.

Though I’m worried what more information we’ll find about David since his ex-wife showed that video.
That screech is amazing.
Instead of downtuning, they uptuned.. How interesting, metal in Standard F tuning. I love it!
do you know of any other bands or artists that use this tuning? Also crazy to think meshuggah uses this tuning a whole octave down
@@Nile8765 Placebo were using F standard tuning, but with highest string downtuned to C, so instead of Vector's FA#D#G#CF they have FA#D#G#CC

One of the best bands out there...mind blowing
best fucking thrash metal band ive heard this year!! anyone knows why the drummer doesnt have any toms? just thought it was strange
i think it has it, they re just lower
ClitCommander you can hear the rolls constantly
Roberto Jiménez they tune in f. they drop the toms. they are plain unorthodox. but they fuckin rule. best new band out there.
2 floor toms one on each side. Drummer friend of mine plays like that due to him being in drum line.
daaaang they`re awesome playing live!! their new album is awesome :D
I am beyond happy this band exists..
Wow amazing sound quality!
Umm, are these guys tuned up to F?
Yup.
Yup
+Rogue Floppers does anyone else do this? Shits weird.

Have u ever tried playing this?

E standard is too mainstream
I heard it was because they thought it sounded more sci fi

Why isn't keeping Annihilator and adding Voivod an option?
Its amazing how the lead players can play that shit on that fretboard
damn.. they are extreme of thrash 🤘
Why must the camera person always focus on the rhythm as soon as the solo starts -_-
Some times they make me think of a thrash version of Fall of Troy
Exactly! I’ve been thinking the same thing for a while
Why am I barely discovering this band now?
