That's nice but you still on the surface levels of prog :P try Emmerson Lake and Palmer, Magnum, Uriah Heep, Nature Construct, Threshold, Ayreon... also you should try Camel, Genesis and Caravan. These bands still are on the surface of the prog. genre but should broaden your horizon for now :) i'm a prog metal enthusiast and i'm still learning about new bands everyday. Visit progarchives too once in a while. New band i found today: Long Distance Calling. Old Band i revisited: Buckethead.
@@pissbaby7306 it's a band called Thank you scientist. They incorporate many instruments. Horns being one of the main ones. So the horns in this song instantly reminded me of them.
Haken are masters at writing the perfect chorus. They're simply the best in all of rock music. It's what drew me to their music, but the lyrical content and complexity keep me coming back. Hook, line and... pun.
This whole song was an advertisement at the beginning of a youtube video I was about to watch. Might be the only 4-minute ad I didn't skip. I listen to progressive metal all the time (Tesseract, DGD, Contortionist), so if RUclips picked up on that and start doing this more often, I've got no complaints with it.
This seems to incorporate all the best elements of Haken. You have the poignant and prominent choruses found on Aquarius/Visions, the tight TIGHT song structure like on The Mountain, the sweet implementation of synths and electronics from Affinity I’m definitely hyped
So, is the patient the Cockroach King? "Bring an empire to its knees" -The Good Doctor "An Empire fallen to its knees" -Cockroach King It could be a long shot, but even with the title of the album, Vector, it seems like they could be trying to tie things together. Like, what if this album serves as the point in space between all of their other albums? What if all of their albums' stories take place in one universe, and this is the album that ties them all together?
Madara Uchiha You might be right. Look here: hakenmusic.com/blog/post/haken-vector-fifth-studio-album "Although we don’t want to give too much away, people who are familiar with our back catalogue will have fun discovering further clues we’ve planted throughout the album. And that's the challenge for the fans - to find out for themselves their own meaning for 'Vector' as an album."
I think you're more than likely right, but the word you're thinking of is "vertex" (a point where lines meet) rather than "vector" (a construct consisting of a direction and a magnitude, alternatively a 'method of entry').
Theres a whole sub-genre called neoclassical that specializes in strict classical composure. Try Adagio, Veiled in Scarlet, Richard Anderssons Space Odessey or Time Requiem I think youll like them.
Yeah, this album is definetly going to be explosive. This song kinda reminds me of In Memoriam from The Mountain. I actually really like that song, and the song. Especially the chaotic and very technical bridge
רן אטש "This song sounds like shit." Perfect technic. Great singer, band works as a team. its versatil, sounds advanced compared to affinity, is all in all another great step after taking big and bigger steps after EACH album. They are growing and growing, and you wanna call this shit? "will be in this album". You literally heard 4 minutes of it, and now want to judge the whole album? No offense, my friend, but if you think this close minded, progressive is NOT the right music for you.
Hakprous? Lepken? Awesome song with an awesome influence. Don't get me wrong. It's still Haken!! And I love it!! Can't wait to get the album and to see them live!
Is incredible!!! the riff of the song stayed in my head and reminded me a lot of "in memorian". I already want the new album to come out and then see them when they come to Argentina !!! Here, we Argentines have a phrase that is used when we are anxious to see a band, "bring doors that you have left over!" AGUANTE HAKEN VIEJAS!!!!
SICK! Honestly I did not like it much at first but I think that's because I listened through my phone's speakers. Put headphones on, listened again, and was blown away. Can't wait for the album
Listened to this song once and went to the hospital as a result. My good doctor prescribed this album and some electricity. So I pre-ordered it with my smart-toaster while taking a bath.
"Calling Doctor Rex to cell block 2" The nurses cry Twenty inmates scream in their beds But one, one is silent An unusual case, this one Deluded, psychotic, then catatonic The Good Doctor looks him up and down and smiles "It's time for a game" [Chorus:] Electricity is the prescription he needs Bring him back to society Electricity is the cure that he really needs Bring an empire to its knees Inside his mind, sparks fly Vague memories of a caved-in, broken life [x2] [Chorus] [Breakdown] Make sure his arms are bound And all his pills go down Make all his secrets drown Render his mind unsound Inside his mind, sparks fly Vague memories of a caved-in, broken life [x2] [Chorus]
So happy these guys are becoming more well known. They deserve success. 63 000 views in a couple days of the song being out is a nice sign. Hoping to see it reach way more
So my expectations were already through the roof, and I've been super hyped about the new album...but, I'll be damned if they didn't find a way to exceed beyond what I could even comprehend...
Dream theater is long gone now. Their legacy remains as one of the greatest prog metal bands, but to me these guys are the new era. They have been killing it album after album. I won't go that far to say they are the new dream theater, but definitely one of the most unique bands to date, right next to Leprous.
Ok, kill admit I'm a Dream Theater fan but lately I've been listening to bands like Voyager (Australia), Leprous, Karnavool, and Haken. This is the second album from Haken I picked up and I've been listening to this one nonstop. I like this one better than their last. I'm going to try to see them in Chicago with Leporus....
GREAT! The perfect appetizer for an album that will be the best one in 2018. Glad to see you guys three times on tour - in New York, Hamburg and Munich!
There's so many amazing albums due to arrive in 2018. But just after listening to this one song. The new Haken album has pretty much jumped to my most anticipated release of the year.
This is awesome!! Can’t wait for the full album if this is anything to go by!!!! Really digging the theme of this new album too, can’t wait to see what you guys have explored with this theme!
This song hasnt blown me away but i know that the album will be a masterpiece.Its impossible for Haken to not release an masterpiece album. Ill propably start liking this song after a few more times
Absolutely love it, if the quality of this song is indicative of the rest of the album we're in for a treat! Can't wait for the album and looking forward to seeing you play The Fleece again!
I don't know if we really were an influence on this song but we sure as hell though it would be a good idea to cover it. So we did! ruclips.net/video/dFUB1mWvmoQ/видео.html
I think this song has something to do with the Cockroach king. At 1:22 Diego clearly plays a melody from that song. Not only that, but the chorus in this song talks about bringing an "empire" to its knees just like in Cockroach king. Maybe he is the Good doctors patient 🙊
I'd been listening to a lot of DGD (Mothership + ArSe) through RUclips lately and this song popped up in my recommended (even though I've already heard it). I'm glad it did because the album dropped a couple of weeks ago and it nearly passed me by. Looking forward to giving it the Sennheiser treatment later on.
The guy in the video is clearly meant to represent the fans waiting for the album to come out.
fact
my god, so true x))
actual footage of me
@@RudyAyoub you are everywhere!
Stellar 101 sure am
First listen: ok.
After 2 billion replays: EEEEELEEECTRICITYYYYYY
Super H Y P E D about Victor btw
same :D
Gaaaaaaaaay ;)
But Vector is going to be amazing!
Other people: Today's music sucks!
Me: EEEEELEEECTRICITYYYYYY
this was my reaction too at the beginning :D
Thought I got Rick Rolled at 0:22.
LOLLLL
Amazing! Ross rolled
Relevant video: ruclips.net/video/FOKxaj-AnbU/видео.html
thank you
Nice joke XD
I love how diverse the modern prog scene is. Go from Opeth to Haken to TesseracT. So proud to call myself a progressive metal fan
That's nice but you still on the surface levels of prog :P try Emmerson Lake and Palmer, Magnum, Uriah Heep, Nature Construct, Threshold, Ayreon... also you should try Camel, Genesis and Caravan.
These bands still are on the surface of the prog. genre but should broaden your horizon for now :) i'm a prog metal enthusiast and i'm still learning about new bands everyday. Visit progarchives too once in a while.
New band i found today: Long Distance Calling.
Old Band i revisited: Buckethead.
Try RIshloo
Cecil Drakan thanks for the list of bands I already know. Get your head of out of your arse no one cares how much of a prog snob you are
Cecil he's talking about "modern" prog. Every Prog Fan should know Genesis and ELP. Plus, they are not "modern".
YOU FORGOT LEPROUS
_”I am a cockroach, Dr. Rex!”_
The Good Haken looks up and down and smiles...
...It's time for a tour.
Really enjoying Haken You Scientist
yeeeeeeees
If you know .. you know.
i don’t get it
@@pissbaby7306 it's a band called Thank you scientist. They incorporate many instruments. Horns being one of the main ones. So the horns in this song instantly reminded me of them.
Elijah Phipps Thank You
That chorus may just be the catchiest thing I've heard all year
Listen to "Blot" by Beetween the buried and me
"Blot" is fucking fantastic, but that chorus is far from catchy I'd say! Memorable yes, arguably better yes, but not really an earworm.
Haken are masters at writing the perfect chorus. They're simply the best in all of rock music. It's what drew me to their music, but the lyrical content and complexity keep me coming back. Hook, line and... pun.
I have, the chorus in this is catchier. I liked the new BTBAM, but I'm far more into Haken than I am into them.
@@MartinSynan I'm with you, I've had the chorus stuck in my head all day. I'M SO FRICKIN PUMPED FOR THIS ALBUM
This whole song was an advertisement at the beginning of a youtube video I was about to watch. Might be the only 4-minute ad I didn't skip. I listen to progressive metal all the time (Tesseract, DGD, Contortionist), so if RUclips picked up on that and start doing this more often, I've got no complaints with it.
1:52 BAM ---- BAM BAM BAM ---- BAM BAM ---- BAM ---- BAM BAM ---- BAM BAM BAM BAM ---- BAM BAM BAM ---- BAM BAM ---- BAM ---- BAM BAM ---- BAM BAM BAM BAM ---- BAM BAM BAM ---- BAM BAM ---- BAM ---- BAM BAM . . BAM - - - BAM BAM BAM ---- BAM BAM ---- BAM ---- BAM BAM ---- BAM BAM BAM

Lyrics verified! Great job! 😜
ALL HAIL THE RHYTHM QUEEN
Haven't gotten there but this transcript has me very pumped for this part. :D
Did not disappoint. :D :D :D
HECK YES
This seems to incorporate all the best elements of Haken.
You have the poignant and prominent choruses found on Aquarius/Visions, the tight TIGHT song structure like on The Mountain, the sweet implementation of synths and electronics from Affinity
I’m definitely hyped
Ray is killing it as always
Altay Bayraktar rapid headbanging
ray is drummer everybody needs
So, is the patient the Cockroach King?
"Bring an empire to its knees" -The Good Doctor
"An Empire fallen to its knees" -Cockroach King
It could be a long shot, but even with the title of the album, Vector, it seems like they could be trying to tie things together.
Like, what if this album serves as the point in space between all of their other albums? What if all of their albums' stories take place in one universe, and this is the album that ties them all together?

Hell yeah dude!! you made me find this 1:23 it's totally from Cockroach King
The doctor could be the cockroach king because his name is Rex which means king
A Haken expanded universe? Yeah, sounds nice to me I guess
I think you're more than likely right, but the word you're thinking of is "vertex" (a point where lines meet) rather than "vector" (a construct consisting of a direction and a magnitude, alternatively a 'method of entry').
loved the jakob's ladder reference
absolute banger of a track also, of course
this is classical in a modern age, absolutely outstanding; all raise to applaud these great musicians.
Theres a whole sub-genre called neoclassical that specializes in strict classical composure. Try Adagio, Veiled in Scarlet, Richard Anderssons Space Odessey or Time Requiem I think youll like them.
So different yet so familiar. Great song.
That's what i was thinking ! Different and familiar :)
That's Haken for you ladies and gentlemen. This song kicks ass.
Feels like a solid evolution - not so similar that it's more of the same but not so different that it would alienate existing fans
On point.
It has a little bit of a Infiltrate Destroy Rebuild era CKY vibe to the vocals. Good stuff!
I can't believe how GOOD that bridge section was
Dillinger Escape Plan influence definetely)
Yeah, this album is definetly going to be explosive. This song kinda reminds me of In Memoriam from The Mountain. I actually really like that song, and the song. Especially the chaotic and very technical bridge
So much bullshit in a single comment, congratulations on your new record.
@רן אטש How are those bands bad? Explain then
How could hate HAKEN anyway when shit like edm, house and traprap exists
I think it reminds me more of The Endless Knot
רן אטש
"This song sounds like shit."
Perfect technic. Great singer, band works as a team. its versatil, sounds advanced compared to affinity, is all in all another great step after taking big and bigger steps after EACH album. They are growing and growing, and you wanna call this shit?
"will be in this album". You literally heard 4 minutes of it, and now want to judge the whole album?
No offense, my friend, but if you think this close minded, progressive is NOT the right music for you.
@@TheSilentpulse well said
Man this is so catchy...and has some of the best vocals ive ever heard on the verses.
Electricity might be the prescription he needs, but I know Vector is the prescription I need. October can't come soon enough! Amazing!
When you like before you listen bc Haken never disappoint
I did that too haha
And then I turned it on and I was like "Oh that like was WORTH IT"
unwise
I’d say the vocals have improved a bit. This is going to be yet another amazing album from these guys
I wasn't a fan 4 years ago but I think he's a great vocalist ...he sings very high it seems ...
Hakprous? Lepken? Awesome song with an awesome influence. Don't get me wrong. It's still Haken!! And I love it!! Can't wait to get the album and to see them live!
Stop being stacked up on Leprous .
Leprous is great , Haken has entirely different league for themselves ... Alone .
Well damn, I feel Leprous influence while still feeling like it's true Haken. I love it.
Me as well. What a great influence, isn't it? Leprous is an awesome band.
Agreed! Love it!
Agree!!!
The more I listen to the new prog music getting out there, the more respect i have for leprous. They really did something different.
mmmm no Leprous influences here... (as much as I love Leprous :) ) this two are Monsters of their own kind... lucky for us !!!
Thank God for Haken. You guys are my friend.
Is incredible!!! the riff of the song stayed in my head and reminded me a lot of "in memorian". I already want the new album to come out and then see them when they come to Argentina !!! Here, we Argentines have a phrase that is used when we are anxious to see a band, "bring doors that you have left over!" AGUANTE HAKEN VIEJAS!!!!
Such a unique band. Sounds like Yes with George Michael style vocals. They're progressive without sounding like another Dream Theater clone.
Is he a surgeon by any chance?
SICK! Honestly I did not like it much at first but I think that's because I listened through my phone's speakers. Put headphones on, listened again, and was blown away. Can't wait for the album
qué bien canta Luisito Comunica
Este comentario merece más likes.
😂😂😂😂
Lol we
JAJAJJAJA pensé lo mismo
JAJAJA lpm lo vuelvo a ver y me rio
EEEEELEEEECTRICIITY IS
THEEEEE PRESCRIPTION HE NEEEEEEEEEDS
Love the chill vibe at 2:17 with the electronic drum sound, and then picking back up. Great horn samples too
love the shaking head effects after 2:40
What are you talking about? That isn't an effect. Haken are just really good at shaking their heads really fast.
This is how headbanging is in haken shows
This is something I would definitely listen to.... Cant wait for the whole LP to come out. Haken is amazingly awesome.
Stellar 101 EP? You mean LP.
@@lucamartinezbergamin8804 Oh yeah lol thanks for correcting!
this song S L A P S
Sceptical at first, when i listened it but now it turned to be one of haken's best songs
That killer drumfill at 0:21... Can't beat it.
Haken, the only fucking thing that brought my soul back to the feeling of being alive.
That is one of the most explosive, effective choruses I've ever heard. Fuck
Listened to this song once and went to the hospital as a result. My good doctor prescribed this album and some electricity. So I pre-ordered it with my smart-toaster while taking a bath.
Can't wait to headbang over the instrumental version.
"Calling Doctor Rex to cell block 2"
The nurses cry
Twenty inmates scream in their beds
But one, one is silent
An unusual case, this one
Deluded, psychotic, then catatonic
The Good Doctor looks him up and down and smiles
"It's time for a game"
[Chorus:]
Electricity is the prescription he needs
Bring him back to society
Electricity is the cure that he really needs
Bring an empire to its knees
Inside his mind, sparks fly
Vague memories of a caved-in, broken life
[x2]
[Chorus]
[Breakdown]
Make sure his arms are bound
And all his pills go down
Make all his secrets drown
Render his mind unsound
Inside his mind, sparks fly
Vague memories of a caved-in, broken life
[x2]
[Chorus]
I think it's Dr. Rex (the email address for the vinyl etching competition was drrex@gmail)
Aha, well caught. Thanks!
thank you so much!!
Is it about Robert Pirsig?
I sense a concept album
When he said "I am a surgeon", I felt that
I can't wait til October holy shit
Aaaaargh me too 😖
So happy these guys are becoming more well known. They deserve success. 63 000 views in a couple days of the song being out is a nice sign. Hoping to see it reach way more
2:57 Inside his mind sparks fly, vague memories of a caved in broken life. God damn I love Haken 🤘🏼
Dang, the Doctor regenerated again. And he is pissed.
Hooow do they do it? This is amazing, Haken never disappoints.
Haken really are something else.
The Hype is real! Can't wait for the entire album to come out! So Damn good :D Brilliant guys!
Just wanna give props to the guy in this music video. You can tell he really went "full send" with the role he was given.
I didn’t thought Haken could get even better...
So my expectations were already through the roof, and I've been super hyped about the new album...but, I'll be damned if they didn't find a way to exceed beyond what I could even comprehend...
I think we've found a new theme song for the Medic from TF2.
1st time i heard these guys was last night during a RUclips ad, and I really like it.
Haken is now my favourite progressive metal ROCK band!!!
Igor Tajgor progressive metal and rock*
The next to take the throne from dream theater? Let the haters begin!!!! Muahahaha
Dream Theater is best for me, but Haken slowly start to prefer...maybe DT surprised with a new album because the last 4 have not been so much like me
Dream theater is long gone now. Their legacy remains as one of the greatest prog metal bands, but to me these guys are the new era. They have been killing it album after album. I won't go that far to say they are the new dream theater, but definitely one of the most unique bands to date, right next to Leprous.
Try between the buried and me, native construct and ne obliviscaris
23° listening of the day. Damn, I need a Good doctor.
Sickos. Short song, but freaking catchy as heck. They really polished that Haken sound, love it so much.
Ok, kill admit I'm a Dream Theater fan but lately I've been listening to bands like Voyager (Australia), Leprous, Karnavool, and Haken. This is the second album from Haken I picked up and I've been listening to this one nonstop. I like this one better than their last. I'm going to try to see them in Chicago with Leporus....
GREAT! The perfect appetizer for an album that will be the best one in 2018. Glad to see you guys three times on tour - in New York, Hamburg and Munich!

I will be seeing them here in Portland, OR !
There's so many amazing albums due to arrive in 2018. But just after listening to this one song. The new Haken album has pretty much jumped to my most anticipated release of the year.
WHY THE FUCK AREN'T THEY MORE POPULAR
Soooooooooooooo good to be home !!!!!!!!!!! Can't wait
Me and the italian progressive community are only waiting for the album😍.
Oh sii
Chiaro ahah
Ma ovviamente
Cazzo si
Confermo
This is awesome!! Can’t wait for the full album if this is anything to go by!!!! Really digging the theme of this new album too, can’t wait to see what you guys have explored with this theme!
Still my fucking favorite band in the goddamn world. This is one of the shortest songs and they are already kicking ass.
This song hasnt blown me away but i know that the album will be a masterpiece.Its impossible for Haken to not release an masterpiece album.
Ill propably start liking this song after a few more times
A very great work boys, greetings from Paraguay, we wait for the new album
Pure and original as ever u guys are the best looking forward to listening to the album and seeing u again on stage
Aight, I've listened to this song about 20 times now. And somehow it just keeps getting better!
Loved this song in the concert at Phoenix!
This sounds AMAZING! October 26th can't come soon enough
Guys this is freaking awesome!! Good job! Can't wait for the album!
Damn! Still rocking it !
Haken.. does it again, another masterpiece under the belt.
Can’t wait for the new album
Your musicianship and vocals are impeccable! Feeling like the guy in guy in video for sure, as anticipation builds closer to October!
I AM A SURGEON!!
THIS SOUNDS AWESOME! I'm here in Chile just waiting for this album and the band! KEEP WITH THE AMAZING MUSIC!
I like the reference to Jacob's Ladder with the head movements in the bridge :D
Man this sounds good, looking forward to the album!
Absolutely love it, if the quality of this song is indicative of the rest of the album we're in for a treat! Can't wait for the album and looking forward to seeing you play The Fleece again!
I can't wait for this album to release.
HOLY FUCK I WAKE UP TO THIS. I'm calling it, in the top 5 albums of the year for sure.
Yes please
Great!!! Looking forward to the release! :-)
I love the Kyros influence in this track!
I don't know if we really were an influence on this song but we sure as hell though it would be a good idea to cover it. So we did! ruclips.net/video/dFUB1mWvmoQ/видео.html
A mix between Enemy Inside and Nightmare to Remember by DT for the lyrics. With that Haken sound!! LOVE!!!
It's like Dream Theater, Beyond Creation, Animals as Leaders, and pretty much everything 80s all put into one song. Wow.
Rather enjoyed that. Drumming is spot on as always
Good song! See you next year here in Chile
damn i just wanted to listen to this... but it is so hard not to go on with the rest of the album now, the show continued runing in my head :X
I think this song has something to do with the Cockroach king. At 1:22 Diego clearly plays a melody from that song. Not only that, but the chorus in this song talks about bringing an "empire" to its knees just like in Cockroach king. Maybe he is the Good doctors patient 🙊
ooh.
That is very perceptive. It sounded familiair to me but i could not quite put my finger on it. ...
just a lil easter egg
Wow. Good catch!!
I think you’re onto something dude 👍🏾
Super hyped for the rest of the album, this song totally blew me away. Same release date as Red Dead 2, the 26th is gonna be a good day :P
Superb sound, i love the chorus and the slappy part of course
Can't wait for the album
Amaaaaaaaazing Song , Style Yeahh ⚡️🤘🏻 cool .. Up up HAKEN 🥁⚡️🤘🏻
I'd been listening to a lot of DGD (Mothership + ArSe) through RUclips lately and this song popped up in my recommended (even though I've already heard it).
