I’ll also be going through my Spotify stats for the month + running through all relevant channel updates + plans! Link for Patreon is in the description if you’re interested in something like this!
Now that you've listened to The Place I Feel Safest, the intro to The Way It Ends can make more sense as he refers to the place he feels safest was never really there at all and just sets up for the next chapter that is that album so perfectly. Im enjoying your journey with Currents. I too wanna bump I Let The Devil In EP. Cheers
This is easily my favorite Currents album. It’s amazing
Edit: If you like Currents, you need to check out Before I Turn. They’re like a darker Currents. Both Claustrophobic and Lovelorn are amazing albums.
oh my god yes yes yes! Before I Turn has so many official hood classics in their discography
@@ZuccAF one of the most underrated bands in metalcore
I third this heavily. Such an incredibly underrated band.
@@ZuccAF Before I turn rules!
Before I turn!!!!!
This one holds a special place to me. I was working for a metal-magazine when this album came out and was asked to review it, none of us had ever heard of Currents before. Had no expectation and got blown away, Tremor, Night Terrors, Delusion, Forget Me, I'm Not Waiting all still give me goosebumps every damn time
Night Terrors is one of my top 10 metalcore songs of all time. both of these album honestly are so fucking good.
The place I feel safest makes me cry every time and silence probably has my favorite breakdown of all time. Incredible album by an incredible band
Not to mention how emotional shattered is. Also on another note, I don’t think I know a single album that has more lyrics than this one. It’s just so relentless it doesn’t stop
This album is perfect
0:57 Apnea

Great reaction. I Let The Devil In EP is so good, hopefully you check it out 🙌
Thanks dude!
And I absolutely agree! Their I Let the Devil in EP is absolute fire, I love it!
47:48 Jesus H. Christ this sent me 🤣🤣
this is one of my favorite edits right next to the Talking Heads breakdown 🤣👌
edit: and the downtuned washing machine for the coven breakdown
The intro for Apnea always gives me goosebumps. By far one of my favourite albums from 2017! ❤️🔥
Honestly their song Another Life is underrated in my opinion. That song just rips through and is heavy af the entire time
It’s amazing, I found it like 2 months ago and wondered why it was like the least popular on the album
I thought it was the best on the album, the intro alone hooked me in an instant.
same thoughts
This album very lyrically driven and focuses on the chaos and darker aspects instrumentally. ILTDI and TWIE build on the melodies and maturity in the instrumentals.
I can totally see how this album is peoples top spot, Another Life and Shattered are Currents highlights, imo overall their I Let The Devil In and TWIE outdo it for me. Their Life // Lost album from 2015 is another fun listen and interesting to see how their sound has progressed
It's simply up to personal preference on prioritizing riffs or vocal melodies i think.
TPIFS is simply another league in terms of melodic riffing and all those little additions in the verses that make them so interesting.
@@sirdo946 Yep big song writing or very technical. I prefer technical currents but the way it ends is still 10/10. This one has sentimental value, it always wins for me.
Djent Mario @15:25
Edit after watching the reaction: Relistening to these guys for the first time in a while just reminds me how they are easily one of (if not the) best metalcore bands out there. Truly impeccable work. I highly recommend listening to their I Let The Devil In EP, probably their best imo.
This album has BRUTAL breakdowns. Like. Everyone needs to take notes.
Currents is criminally underrated! Like fuck! People need to hop on the current and get with the vibes! So consistent so heavy!
Forget me has always been a favourite of mine, that chorus kick ass!!!
Fun fact (if it wasn’t mentioned already): Buster (Humanity’s Last Breath/Vildjharta) produced this album. As soon as I learned this, I knew it was gonna be a banger of an album. Also, maybe Humanity’s Last Breath’s remastered Self Titled reaction soon? 👀
Gotta do “I let the devil in” EP. Love from Georgia, USA
Oh yes. Been waiting for this one.
Just barely noticed the album art for The Way It Ends is in the background for The Place I Feel Safest. I'm a bit late but I've always loved Currents since their first EP
Finally! I've never seen even one reaction on this album, thank you so much!!
15:23 I bet this sección is inspired by Within the Ruins!!! Sounded so goood
I watched your other Currents videos last night and woke up to this SO EXCITED this album is legendary. Let the Devil In EP needs to happen to goes so hard.
im soooo happy someone reacted to this whole album. i love pretty much everything they have made but this is no question in my top 3 albums of all time. the lyrics are so deep and the mix of melodic sound and bone crushing drops just hits that spot. i come back to this album every couple of weeks and just let the whole thing play. its perfect
Definitely do a lyric session with this album. It’s by far their best lyrical content.
can't wait to watch this later ;)
Im so glad to see I wasn't the only one who lost their mind with Another Life, your reaction to it really made my day, great video. Keep em coming.
fantastic reaction drew fortune this album by currents is absolutely amazing every song is an absolute masterpiece from start to finish on this album their new material is really good aswell there's not a bad album/song that this band can't write i give this album by currents a 10/10. great reaction bro keep them coming.🙂🤘🔥
I forgot how much I love this album. Songs like Forget Me and Another Life hit me on such a personal level. Love it.
15:20 if you want more check out Within the Ruins! :D
by FAR my favourite metalcore album I know of. The guitar work on this is just facemelting
Nobody is ever ready for the end of Best Memory on the first listen. Love everything this band touches
i always get goosepumps from this album. Girlfriend left me in the time i listented to this and man these lyrics and the ambience hit too close to home. One of the best Albums in this genre for sure.
Hadn't heard this album before but almost instantly recognized the Buster Odeholm mix. The guy just somehow makes music sound so huge.
Ok, now check out the EP "I Let The Devil In" lmaooo
Apnea has one of the most wonderful riff in metalcore ever made
just noticed the three tesseract album covers in the background! All three In my top 10 albums. BUT the place I feel safest is 100% #1 album and has been since they released it.
I had almost the same perspective, first listen on this album and The Way It Ends fanboy. Every song made it to my playlist. So I know that this album is sick but it's just too much to process at the first listen. Gave me the feeling when i first time listened to Breakdown of Sanity - Perception album, because it's almost causing a headache after some time where all these small things happen and the riffs/breakdowns are so diverse with so much details.
Man I forgot how fucking incredible this album is. Love their newer work too but holy moly so many banger riffs that you just can't help but move to
I'd love to see you run through their EP I let the devil in! It's a lot of people's favorite sound of theirs, being released inbetween their 2 albums. I consider it to be the quintiseential Currents sound!
This is my fav currents album. The breakdown at the end of silence is 🤌🤌🤌 from the “fuck you im moving on” call out on is sooo fucking good
The way you described hearing "the death we seek" in your head, without knowing what song it's was. This happened to me aswell 😲
It’s so hard to choose between the two albums but I believe this is my favorite. Remember Me is my favorite song so far from the new album. I plan on getting a remember me/ forget me tattoo with the moon next to it soon. Forget me is my favorite song on this album and Silence with the ending it has, is insane.
Great reaction, dude! Now that you've listened to it a bit more (I presume), what are your thoughts on it? This album is definitely the more aggressive/angry type from them, and I think going into it with that in mind would've helped. Also, "I let the devil in" is a great mix between this and TWIE, so I think you'll love it. I can't wait to watch when it comes out! Just remember to listen to it when the time is right and don't force yourself into it. It's easy to want to go straight into something when there's a lot of hype for it, but that can also make your experience worse (at least in my opinion).
Man, there's a new Make Them Suffer single "Doomswitch" came out and this will destroy you, trust me :D
Night Terrors is my favorite, top1 year in my spotify in the year i first hear... and stills top 3 after years ... crazy
Night terrors gotta be my favorite song, such a good balance. Song is perfect.
I know Polaris’s album The Death of Me wasn’t your taste but their previous album “The Mortal Coil” is far superior. Songs like Lucid, Consume, The Remedy. Are classics. Give it a listen if you want. ⚫️👄⚫️
Uneven Structure - Februus
I reckon it’d be right up your street 🙌🏻
This is one of the best metalcore albums lyrically and how pertinent it feels to me is insane.
I think it means something different to everyone, and it's beautiful how they've expressed these feelings.
Such a brutal album. Im sure youll pick up on more of the themes as you listen again but man... Heavy in every sense. My phone is physically heavier while this album is playing. Cant even lift it.
You should check out some Like Moths to Flames. I haven't seen them on any polls or mentioned here. One of thoae bands that never miss.
You are describing how I feel about Currents perfectly... some songs just hit after 4th or 7th listen... and then you add them to loop. Personally I vibed with Monsters from the start, but like you said with Place I Feel Safest and their new single The Death We Seek (btw it has sick outro, so much emotion) just gets better and better after a while, but not right away
peculiar :D
A lot going on in their music is probably the biggest part of it. Once you can listen to it all individually & simultaneously, it hits super hard. I don’t have that issue but I have noticed people do.
Honestly their best album, def my favorite
Been enjoying your reaction/review videos recently, and back then, I had the same reaction to Another Life as yours. If that isn't euphoria, I can't say I can give an answer to what is LOL
It took me some time to like this album...still go back to TWIE way more but SIlence I think is still my favourite from this one.
Man, I found The Way It Is Ends like a week before you uploaded your reaction to it, and it's crazy how much I agree with your thoughts. Both albums are just phenomenal, I prefer The Way It Ends but I still haven't found a Currents song I dislike
That section around 15:40 reminds me that you should definitely check out Within The Ruins. Their overall sound is very much like that section
I heard from an interview that Within the Ruins was a huge influence on Chris’ guitar playing
we need Before I Turns lovelorn album in the metalcore poll! they’re actually old friends with currents. they actually have an older song featuring the singer of currents. i think you’d enjoy them
oh man great band. you can even see the currents influence almost considering chris wiseman helped with the making of claustrophobic album
Felt exactly the same the first listen. It’s a phenomenal album through, took me a few listens. I started with The Way It Ends too
Also, the word youre searching for is raw. Theyre very raw on this album and the genre and fans really enjoy raw.
Sooooooo good, lyrically !
Whole album is Bangers. But those last 3 really do hit different. I'm Not Waiting is a top song for me, that breakdown after he says "our world has gone to shit and we just sat there and we let it tear to bits" 🤘 phenomenal.
Sick album, also, depending on your camera, you can change the focusing mode to be what's closest to the lens for focusing on things like your arm. Otherwise, it may just be on eye autofocus on center weighted focus to focus on what is in the middle. (I am a professional photographer and would be happy to help if need be but you can probably youtube it) It may be helpful to switch it off of auto focus as well if it just stays in the one spot and then you just have to move your arm to be about where your eys would be so that spot is always in focus.
Did you know that Buster from Vildhjarta/HLB mixed this album (if I remember correctly)
New make them suffer is nuts
FINALLY!
Silence has my favorite breakdown of all time
So true
u gotta do the new make them suffer track, it's insane
Currents is just crazy! They have not written one bad song and their riffs are out of this world! I remember when this album came out; i had to listen to it about 10 times to really digest what was going on what just happened 😂 im not the guy who has a favourite band, but if i had choose one it probably would be currents. This Album, the way it ends, life lost and their EP i let the devil in are must listens for every metal fan! 🤘🏽😉
YOU'LL NEVER SLEEP AGAIN!
i almost broke my neck to ‘Another Life.’
Another life. Might be one of the best metal songs written in it's segment. Lyrical content. How's the lyrics meld with the instruments. The dark Melody. The combination of chug and metal riffs. Only thing it's missing is some guitar riffage in the open middle range. Almost perfection.
at some point, PLEASE react to I Let the Devil In album. Quick, 5 song EP. Into Despair and Forever Marked are t2 of their best songs IMO
Sir, you need to listen to one of the best metalcore albums of all time: misery signals - controller
The good metalcore before it became djentcore
I knew Another Life was going to get him lmao that track goes so hard
I definitely lean more towards the more melodic side of The Way it Ends but man, this album just crushes.
If you're someone thats searching for good hooks, then I might have a good album for you. Cannibal by Bury Tomorrow. Every single song has a impressive chorus and is so god damn catchy
CURRENTS LET'S GOOOOO
Can we just appreciate the lyrics in "I'm not waiting" David fuckin Attenborough would approve surely. Favorite track of the album. 2 is delusion just for the absolutely mental guitar solo that sounds like a level from super Mario. Beep boop boo be de beep boop boo 🤣
this man needs to listen to Bury Tomorrow cannibal. make it happen lads
God, Shattered is one hell of a song.
This album was the first time I ever heard of this band. I wish I could delete it from my mind and listen to it again for the first time.
Many of us old Currents fans were pretty disappointed in The Way It Ends. I've ended up coming around to it pretty massively for what it is, but your reaction to Another Life and that type of technicality, brutality, and relentlessness was 100% what was missing for me in The Way It Ends.
Im on the same boat. I like The Way it Ends for what it is, but The Place I Feel Safest + Let the Devil in are what makes me a fan of this band (that style)
Veri nice
Yo drew you need to check out Their ep "I Let The Devil In". The song My Disguise literally changed my perspective on metalcore when I first heard it
Weird confession, but I've listened to the instrumental version of this album no exaggeration over 100 times, but I'm now realizing I've never actually listened to this album's studio version through.
Same
I listen to currents
August burns red
Polaris
Inventory animate
Tdwp
Instrumentals
One of my favorite albums is FOUND IN FAR AWAY PLACES BY August burns red
Twentyone grams and Marathon are soo good
Currents - I let the devil in EP next
Then Aviana - Corporation
This album is instrumentally heavier but TWE is alot more mature and i love it
Another life is so fucking good
React Life//Lost EP by Currents
Best band EVER
this album is pure hatred 🔥💯
Do their EP now!!!!
I still love The Way It Ends more, I feel like it’s more mature on pretty much all ends, instrumentally, vocally, songwriting, etc. But that doesn’t take anything away from The Place I Feel Safest in my opinion, which’s a great album nonetheless, especially when you take the time it came out into consideration. Currents have been putting out top tier metalcore for years now, one of the best bands out there for sure
I disagree on "instrumentally". TWIE is much simpler in terms of riffing and drumming, which is not a bad thing per se, i actually really liked TWIE as well. But the complex riffs in TPIFS are mind-blowing, still 5 years later.
@@sirdo946 I think it can go either way, when I say “better instrumentally” I’m not referring only to the complexity of riffs, drumming, bass lines, it’s also how it all comes together, and other stuff as well. But as I said, I don’t think there’s a wrong answer here, no matter which one you think is better
Hey bro if you havent listened to the band "structures"
Can u do a reaction video for their album "life through a window"
Please, i think you will dig it.
I subbed to you. You opinions and thoughts are interesting.
You remind me of Harry Potter 😅
Yeah you make a good point about riffs and melodies.
This album was way more riff focused (and i prefer it for that) in terms of all the background melodies, little complexities and variation.
While TWIE is more focused on the big choruses and hooks, as you said, without completely disregarding the mind-blowing riffage but it takes a huge step back compared to this album.
I'm way more into the complex riffing rather than stadium-ish wide hooks so TPIFS is far superior to TWIE for me but as you said, i found myself very deep into TWIE when it came out, just random parts of the songs (even some that i didn't think i liked a lot, like A Flag To Wave which would generally be kinda basic for me) would come to my mind and i'd start singing them lol.
TWIE is TPIFS a bit simplified and more catchy (in a way, more sellable as well) but they make both work soooo fucking well. Unlike other metalcore bands which went in simplier directions without actually managing to make it work and just being unoriginal.
no disrespect to the vocalist, brian is super talented. but Currents really stand out as instrumental music for me.
the instrumental version of the place i feel safest is hands down my most listened to piece of music ever
Reflections - Willow pleeeease
