Riff mastery, I get goose bumps every time I hear this. The drums too, perfection. For me a top 10 song of the last decade. Byzantine can do no wrong!!
The best band on the metal scene does it again. I haven't missed a show by you guys in Atlanta since Fundamental Component. Every time you guys kill it; and you're awesome to hang with after the show. Keep doing what you do.
Holy shit, I feel bad now, that I never got around to listening to this album. The production is so much more professional and I just overall like this song a lot more than the material from their last two albums. This feels much more consistent with the sound of their first incarnation as Byzantine.
Hell yeah! Gave the whole album a listen after hearing this. I really like it, it's quite varied. And Verses of Violence blew my socks off! Will be buying this album. I'm so glad that you guys decided to do this as an expression of your passion, at a time when you felt it was right for you to come back.
Delay and is that a little bit of flanger on the intro? (Don’t really know why I’m asking-I’ll never be able to play the whole song. You guys are fuckin’ good)
Yep, modded out with a killswitch in the tone knob position and with Bareknuckle Pickups. A Holy Diver in the bridge position and a Cold Sweat in the neck.
I don’t understand how u guys are huge? Oh I understand, you got too many changes for dumb America and real drums. Next time try to say Billy Jean and Dior over and over. People like that with trap beats. And get on Tick Tock as soon as possible because you tube has long videos and is old. What a fucking joke music has became in the Great America. U guys are the best. Keep true and real!,,

The most underrated band in the metal scene
2 years later, still...

most awesome metal to come along in at least 25 yrs
It's 5am here and I decided it was finally time to learn "the riff" from this song. It's still as good as I remember it.
You guys deserve so much more... Your music is amazing!
One of the sickest riffs I've ever heard.
OJ and Hendo are LEGENDARY
This Song. The Tone of it! Need more of this in Metal.

Thanks, Brian!
I still can't get over the drum tone on this album. It's so perfect
JoySynthesis Aside from the kick drum all of the drum tones are 100% real and mic’d. Glad you dig it!
Our engineer Jay Hannon knows how to get some killer real drum tones!
Now if there was a tab it would be perfect. I love this damn song. I literally can't stop listening
I saw you guys play a show in Williamsburg VA in the early 2000's. it's cool to see y'all are still around.
This song is naaaasssstyyyyyyyy \m/
Thanks for this, I've been trying to learn it but I had quite a few doubts on some parts.
Fuck yeah! Thank you for taking the time to do this OJ, please do more. Byzantine rules all!
Fucking Brilliant Chris
God damnit, OJ. I just spent a couple hours last week learning this by ear. More playthroughs to ease my pain!
Hope this helps!
VHT Pitbull spotted. Brutal amp.

What tuning is this??
Love "The Cicada Tree"! One of my favorite albums of 2017. Ever consider doing a video for "Verses Of Violence"?
Our video-grapher would kill us attempting a 9 minute song.
A guy can certainly dream. Can't wait to see you live! \m/
YES!!
This song is insane.
Awesome. ✌
100% badass.
So phergian and dark to diabolism, the most underrated band in history
Delay and is that a little bit of flanger on the intro? (Don’t really know why I’m asking-I’ll never be able to play the whole song. You guys are fuckin’ good)
Delay and Flanger it is on the dirty channel with the gain around 1.5!
Thank you!!!
going bald, got a huge beard, got the big amp and guitars.... still semi-young, I want to be this cool when i'm his age.
Pitbull’s and 5150’s. Fuck yeah.

Heavy,
Is that a Schecter Banshee Elite?
Yep, modded out with a killswitch in the tone knob position and with Bareknuckle Pickups. A Holy Diver in the bridge position and a Cold Sweat in the neck.
