This is another one of those songs which you’ll listen to in a few years and you’ll know exactly who you were and the nostalgia will set in and take you back there.
Yeah as I see it depends on the song but also on degree of criticality when you hear this track, and then this especial song become able to "absorb" such feeling in itself and you memorize it. Admirable feeling
@@greyramsey3568 growing up nothing meant more to me than MCR. But I would say that Holding Ab’s song have higher quality, deeper depth and a more serious tone than MCR. They are not as big but I strongly believe in these lads and they will get there ✌️
I didn't mind the black and white of their old videos but I am extremely glad they moved on to color! It literally makes a huge difference and gives this album a more colorful feel to it. This band made me appreciate colors even more 🌈
I heard this on octane driving into work at 4am. I started crying for no reason. Life gets hard but somehow this lifted my spirits. What an emotional masterpiece. Beautiful song. Thank you so much. ❤️
Holy shit. I can't believe this record might just beat Architects at being the album of the year, especially considering Holding Absence's last one was also the best of the year. I can't stop being blown away by this band
Really? Are you guys going to dismiss architects just because their recent album is softer? You guys are still stuck in 2018 with that childish mindset. Architects is still a great album even though the tone shifted a bit. Be a bit more open minded Just cuz its not hard doesn't make it terrible. While its no AOTY with alot of other banging albums set for this year, its still a great album. I wouldn't say HA would have an album worth AOTY, as it sounds the same as other boyband\core bands. The only song that feels different is Afterlife, but the rest of the songs sound like something that you'd listen to back in 2005. Not that its bad, but it feels generic
I listened to it first on Spotify and fell in love with it already. Then I came here for the visuals which are mesmerizing. This is a very emotional song and Lucas does it justice with all the feels he's showing in this video. I sat here with my mouth open the whole time. Can't believe how good this song is.
This songs hit in many different ways, it’s so pretty, powerful and I just can’t stop replaying it, holding absence has never realised a bad song and this ones just another banger to add to my ever-growing playlist.♥️🥰
"Maybe I could have Learned how to fly But my wings never sprouted" "I live my life inside of this cocoon Just like a flower too afraid to bloom I live my life inside of this cocoon And I’ll die here" both of these verses resonate with me on a level ive never felt before, you guys dont even have a clue
I remember when I first found these guys just perusing my recommended feed about 4 years ago at 3 a.m. I first saw their video for "Permanent" and was totally blown away. Some 4+ years later and they are killing it more than ever and continue to get better. I can't wait to see them should they come over to the States.
Walking in circles whilst listening to HA makes being alone by yourself not so bad (as strange as it sounds) Guess it is just another way of really connecting with yourself to a new level? Honestly i also believe it is incredibly rare to come across art like this especially when it is so loud, clear and full of emotions. It's hard to make music this good. Architects & HA's easily one of my faves Still can't thank HA enough for helping me through the break up i experienced at the end of last year. I guess there is a light after all, at the end of the tunnel (On a last note) *THIS* is why music is important.
Feel terrible that I only heard of these guys 2 weeks ago supporting Funeral for a Friend. His voice live was incredible. I stood there through there whole set with my mouth open with goosebumps.... wtf you been all my life HA!!!
holy shit those lyrics hit HARD. the verse before the second chorus is seriously genius. you guys caught me with the beat at the beginning but i wasn't expecting such a great song
I remember finding you guys 2-3 years ago - around the times it was just singles like Penance, Dream of Me, Permanent, Heaven Knows... Everywhere I went, those songs, his voice, the lyrics, they resonated something deep in me. I searched to understand the meaning of life through HA’s music. I would listen to them on a daily with my feelings of joy and sadness aligning together to feel something more. I realised this was more than music. It was poetry and philosophy. After the release of their first self-titled album, I couldn’t just pick a favourite song. Every one of them had a message to be strong in many scenarios with love, loss, tragedy and hope. The emotions carried me to a new level of consciousness. Going through hardships, their music just had me feel ‘safe’ when I was recovering from depression and anxiety. It’s beautiful to see them grow more towards an enlightening path. Now I feel like it’s brings more courage and mindfulness after the lessons learnt from their past material to grow. Thank you HA for making music that’s inspiring on many levels. I’ll always be a listener. In the good and the bad, your music helped me throughout these modern times.
in an interview he said, it has to do with conveying this idea of depression. He'd go to the area when he was feeling really depressed, enough over time that he'd visited every hour of the day, and despite the changing of time, he still 'felt" the same. So the shots give the impression that time goes on and on yet he still feels the same. Freakin' brilliant!
Wow.. I rarely shed a tear while listening to music, not sure if I ever even did before actually. This song is bigger than nature, keep up the amazing work guys!
Banger song I’m so thrilled and honored for serenading in this video thanks guys it’s a huge blessing in my life amazing banger track and video your soul speaks to my soul too amazing powerful connection together you and me there amazing performance sick banger I’m loving the vocals so melodic hard rock sound and rock feel to it amazing job my boys my spirits has lifted more blessings in my life that I could ask for amazing performance guys you uplifting my life and my spiritual soul thanks guys makes me feel like I’m in a better place now and I found my power thru my recovery thanks guys again for your comfort and love your awesome angels from heaven above love u guys 😘🤘🙏💪🤘
This song is different then previously released singles but this lyrics... man this is so real. I've been there, felt this but I never would have wrote this better than Lucas!
Man I listen to metal and the like all the time, always trying to branch out, and just hearing of this band and just wow. They are something special. Really bummed I'm just hearing of them.
100% should have been filmed on a roundabout the whole time! All jokes aside, HELL of a song this. You lads just cannot make a bad tune. Absolute anthem this 🙌🏻
This is another one of those songs which you’ll listen to in a few years and you’ll know exactly who you were and the nostalgia will set in and take you back there.
Nailed it.
This song reminds me of my school days… i was grade 12 at the moment, listen to this song alone at school and now i have moved to university :,)
already feel that way.
Spot on, Fizzy Blood are another great band that leave you with this whole nostalgic feeling when you go back and listen. Love it.
Yeah as I see it depends on the song but also on degree of criticality when you hear this track, and then this especial song become able to "absorb" such feeling in itself and you memorize it. Admirable feeling
Holding Absence --> Walking on road
Northlane --> Running on road
I was thinking the same thing lmao
Saviour --> Being chased on road
@@mikehuntistight7930 Haha yes true!
(Any of their song)
Gotta keep that 1.5 bro...
Knocking it out of the fucking park everytime!
KING
The linkin park
@@Southernreaper941 Lincoln Park ;)
“I was a fool to have thought that I was worth
more than just a short life
and a lifetime under dirt”
That hit me like a train😭❤️
more mature, more reflective, but still the same theme and the same impulse. love it.
The moment when Holding Absence become better than all the bands they looked up to
Factz
Agree
idk about mcr 👀
@@greyramsey3568

They already did better than their counterpart band, Parting Gift. May they rest in peace by the way. 💔
The lyrics are beautiful damn
it's always a good day when HA releases a new song
I discovered them today and i can totally agree with you
Absolutely. I’ve only heard the singles they’ve released on Sharptone but I really have to start diving into their material
lmao hi skully
I love how they used to upload songs in black and white format and now their videos are full colorized and looks like a freaking rainbow
aestheticc
I didn't mind the black and white of their old videos but I am extremely glad they moved on to color! It literally makes a huge difference and gives this album a more colorful feel to it. This band made me appreciate colors even more 🌈

Why is he so good at conveying emotions? God dammit, my heart. 😭 Holding Absence is so unique 🥺
That's why I fell in love with their music 🎶
My god what have I been missing? This band is breathtaking. Its like a breath of fresh air every time I find a new band that stuns me.
I play guitar, but vocalists like Lucas make me want to learn to sing.
Inspiration🙌🏼 just do it 💪🏽
Holy shit. I can't believe this record might just beat Architects at being the album of the year, especially considering Holding Absence's last one was also the best of the year. I can't stop being blown away by this band
Have to agree with you!! This hits on a different level!!
Beating Architects last album isn't an achievement :D
@@georgthesecond agreed! Architects' album shouldnt even be mentionned in the runnings for aoty.
Really? Are you guys going to dismiss architects just because their recent album is softer? You guys are still stuck in 2018 with that childish mindset.
Architects is still a great album even though the tone shifted a bit.
Be a bit more open minded

Not that its bad, but it feels generic
Sounds nothing like Architects, whatsoever
Lucas' outfits are on point, right down to the different accessories for each one 👌
Came here for this. That sunflower sweater though.
I listened to it first on Spotify and fell in love with it already. Then I came here for the visuals which are mesmerizing. This is a very emotional song and Lucas does it justice with all the feels he's showing in this video. I sat here with my mouth open the whole time. Can't believe how good this song is.

Most under rated uk band. Facts
I absolutely love the camera tricks here. Plus the almost-slow-mo vibe on the choruses verses the regular speed for verses. Absolutely wicked.
It's been a long time since a band gave me this goosebumps..
That 80’s style bass tone...🔥
Holding Absence has been one of the best finds of the year for me, all three singles have been amazing.
Currently one of my favorite songs. Playing it on repeat on Spotify. First heard of them because of Crooked Melody. Amazing song. Thank you.
"Maybe I could have
Learned how to fly
But my wings never sprouted"
"I live my life inside of this cocoon
Just like a flower too afraid to bloom
I live my life inside of this cocoon
And I’ll die here"
both of these verses resonate with me on a level ive never felt before, you guys dont even have a clue
understands, painfully.
Уверен, будет очередной шедевр!
Those lyrics and his voice is so awesome and emotional it’s just one of those voices that you can’t resist listening to
I remember when I first found these guys just perusing my recommended feed about 4 years ago at 3 a.m. I first saw their video for "Permanent" and was totally blown away. Some 4+ years later and they are killing it more than ever and continue to get better. I can't wait to see them should they come over to the States.
I'm so thankful to the YT for recommending me this band 2 years ago. I'm still here and I'm going to stay a little longer :)
The king of vocal melodies!
What an amazing song. Cannot wait to be bawling my eyes out to this one when gigs are back.
it's rare i can appreciate a "all clean vocals" type of song but man this is done perfectly!
This song is incredible. Live performance is incredible. Work of kings from band to production. Been on repeat for weeks.
I swear that this band is just Masterpiece

You’re right .being alone by myself is less hard with holding absence ...
If I wouldn’t had this band I would be already dead
Their music keeps me alive in those harsh times . I also had a breakup last year and I can feel you dude ..
@@Monochrome_Past heads up kings you got this
Feel terrible that I only heard of these guys 2 weeks ago supporting Funeral for a Friend.

Thank you so much for sticking with us, through thick & thin 💕
Amazing to here back! Keep doing what you do! Thank you for the music 🙏🏻
@@monkesaymonkedo7932 I know its older but i got into them after they put out "Permanent". Listen to it if you haven't!
Their music has been helping me so much as well 😭
It is like he has more version of himself in the parallel universe and shot this mv at the same time and location.

Wow.. I rarely shed a tear while listening to music, not sure if I ever even did before actually. This song is bigger than nature, keep up the amazing work guys!
This album is going to be total masterpiece. HA never disappoints.
Emotion, riffs, melodies, vocals, lyrics... Everything is on point. ❤️
Everything about this is pristine. Sunflower shirt included
I’m so emotional right now like don’t even know what to say, I’m just emotional...

LOVE the drumming in this one!
Beautiful as always Gents.
Usually a band's third album is their magnum opus.Seems you guys might hit it on your second.
It's me from late 2023. Wait until you hear the new stuff.
I’ve only discovered this band a few months ago but I’m loving every track
Few weeks for me. Same sentiment though.
i love this band with all my heart
this is cerealeously one uh the best singles ive heard in a decade...1000% pure unadulterated aesthetica
NO DRUM samples!! That's amazing because the producer made this sound like there is drum samples, this drummer is a ninja
agradezco tantoooo a ese amigo que compartió conmigo esta banda. So much love from México ❤
What a song!!! Haven’t heard an album this good in years.
This touches right in the core of my soul
Don’t we all love to find a new amazing band, dudes are killer
This band just doesn't ever miss huh. Banger after banger
WHAT. A. BAND.
what can i say more than I LIVE MY LIFE INSIDE OF THIS COCOOOOOOOOOOOON
The boys out here making an EASY aoty contender 💞💞
This song is different then previously released singles but this lyrics... man this is so real. I've been there, felt this but I never would have wrote this better than Lucas!
Came across this when Kerrang came on my TV by accident, absolutely blown away. Hauntingly beautiful and moved me to tears. You just got a new fan!
Man I listen to metal and the like all the time, always trying to branch out, and just hearing of this band and just wow. They are something special. Really bummed I'm just hearing of them.
Am I the only one who feels an inner peace with this clip?
Me too. I especially love the color mood of the clips where he's wearing glasses.
This kind of vibe is pure gold, like they know to talk to our souls, I thank you HA to be so pertinent.
I guess I'm late to the party on this one but I just heard this song and dam I can't stop listening to it
this band just never misses, they're gonna be massive one day!! absoloutley beautiful song and video ♥️
Очень красивое исполнение и видео... Спасибо, я в восторге!
theyre going to just keep getting bigger and bigger and get the recognition they deserve
God this album....these songs....they just hit. Music nowadays lacks this. I fully appreciate the heart and soul put into this music 🙌
every single has been amazing, can’t wait for the album
Ok this is definitely my favourite song so far
I've not listened to this genre in years.. but now I'm craving some Red Jumpsuit, 30 Seconds to Mars, Trust Company, and Lost Prophets
THIS SONG IS HEARTBREAKING...💔😭
I still remember Reckless... This makes me proud, and gives me hope of the "local music scenes" everywhere.
Such a banger!! The catch is there and it just suits it so well. Brilliant!
This is so good!!!!! This band never disappoints. 10/10
By far my fav song from them! Such a good song to sing as loudly as possible
Lucas had 5 outfits, a mental breakdown and a dream :D. /j no but I'm actually obsessed with this song and video.
I love this band ❤️🤘
Same
100% should have been filmed on a roundabout the whole time!
All jokes aside, HELL of a song this. You lads just cannot make a bad tune. Absolute anthem this 🙌🏻
great masters excellent work beautiful music 🎸🎼 🤘
Im in love with this one
Just discovered this band, first song I heard was Birdcage and holy shit these guys are amazing. Definitely up there with my favorite bands.
Can you stop being so good lol Wow!!!

I love this band, i love this band :)
Beautiful song
Big fan from Germany here. Been listening to their album almost non-stop for the last three months, fucking love it.
Magnificence as always with Holding Absence
Wuuuuuuu!
Just so much wow

Beautiful
Holding Absense is the best band currently. 🤘🏽🔥
Just found you guys. I’m tearing up over here.
Found this band today on Apple Music playing similar music. Couldn’t be more hyped .
These guys are getting my excited for Captives
That - was - beautiful
Great Clean Vocal
Невероятная!
