I'd like to give a special mention to Kyle and Steven from Found Format Film for leading the direction and production of the video you're watching. Massive thanks to Paul Ortiz for working with me on the rework of the album and as always to Kscope for backing my solo work. Lastly, to all of YOU for the amazing support! I can't wait for Ruins to be released. Please consider pre-ordering the album or picking up a copy when it's released, if you're able! Thanks, Dan
Hi, Dan! Greeting from Russia! I'm a huge fan! Single is just amazing, I waiting for your album! You are one of the best vocalists in metal in my opinion
Thank you so much for making the world a more creative and beautiful place. Great VFX in this, and as expected - an unmatched performance by you and your team. I'm so glad i get to experience your passion and art that is your music! Cheers!
I rediscovered my love for Tesseract and your voice thanks to the pandemic and your Live in the Lockdown/Slay at Home. Thank you for helping us all. Stay healthy and stay strong Dan!
Thank you for existing. I've been homeless for almost a year now and I'm about to move into my own place finally and your music, as well as your work in TesseracT has gotten me through some of the darkest times and its a debt I can only pay in adoration for your craft. Some day I'll be able to buy albums again and everything you are on is at the top of my list.
mmm yum yum! watching the video for the first time tbh and eating an apple at the same time 🤣🤣🤣 seriously though, your voice is strikingly beautiful, one of my favourite ones 🥰 thank you for all your streams Dan 💜
I mean... the whole song was absolutely amazing already, but then the last 90 seconds kick in & lift you straight up into hyperspace. Nothing but love for this track. 💖
Castles don't survive through kings' emptied hearts With your hand in mine we conquered it all We are the stars, the lords of a new age We are the legends and secret of outrage We are the ones, bringer of brightest light All of these castles crumbling tonight We are the song of conquest and crier We are the burning of unquenched desire We are the sun, the sanctity and the light All of these masters fall away tonight Breathing ash and flame, our hands we will bind Crested, no man came to serve single hand We are the stars, the lords of a new age We are the legends and secret of outrage We are the ones, bringer of brightest light All of these castles crumbling tonight We are the song of conquest and crier We are the burning of unquenched desire We are the sun, the sanctity and the light All of these masters fall away tonight I feel you inside me, a stabbing unwinding And somehow I'm certain, no questions, no lying You shan't be so frightened, my hands you are carried And softly reminded it's fate that's behind A kingdom awaits you, a master obeys you Be still and be quiet, your heart will not silent I nurture your touch and your tongue and your violence You're tender, my firmness, my fire, my kindness A taste of your softness, I fill you with warning A comfort, a warmth of a love ever growing We're tearing away the resistance we scatter The fear of unknowing we shun ever after We are the stars, the lords of a new age We are the legends and secret of outrage We are the ones, bringer of brightest light
Shout out from La Crosse, WI to Nicole Spence the main actress in the video that was awesome! Been a fan Tompkins with Tesseract and Sky Harbor for quite some time now great work on this they need more of you. I got to meet you at Nick and Ellie's Wedding a while back I'm a fan.
Wow this video is INSANE, the music, the visuals, everything. Probably some of my favorite Daniel Tompkins screams I've ever heard at the end of this my god
Never fails to impress, absolutely astounding. I had goosebumps listening to this. I really can't wait for the album to release its gonna be incredible.
Castles was one of my favorite albums of 2019 and this will be one of my favorites of 2020, no doubt! Right up there with Red's Declaration, Deftones' Ohms, Everything In Slow Motion's Influence and Teramaze's I Wonder!
Just found you on Spotify "new metal" Playlist, while I was gaming and had to stop what I was doing to look up your music. So glad I did because I was blown right away. Keep up this amazing music.
I never had clicked so fast in my life!!! I have been waiting for the official release of his song since daniel was working on it in the livestreams in Twitch!!!! THIS SOUND AMAZING
Absolutely amazing as I knew it would be! I was blown away by Castles - this album is going to be just as incredible. Thank you Dan for always giving us more to look forward to and sharing your light and music with us! Awesome video too! 👌🤘❤️
AWESOME!!!!!!!! Who the FXXK could put a thumbs down on this??? Absolute kick-ass!!!!!!!!!! Well done Dan, Paul and all involved in this production ;-)
Amazing track. The end is obviously epic but, the way Dan structures his versus is understated. The vibe his voice creates before the choruses really sets you up for him to knock you down. Insta-favorite!
Deezer sugested me Ruins Album and Daniel Tompkins ... I usually try new just for few seconds and skip, but ... this is a great and a listen album every day again, again, again ... welcome between my top's!!
Daniel, I'm ashamed to say I didn't know who you were before listening to this album, despite loving Tesseract. It's such a nice feeling to be surprised, in a good way, because after looking up your information and found out you're from Tesseract and that Ruins is produced by Ortiz, no wonder why I like Ruins. But I love this feeling of finding something new you like without any preconceived ideas or notions. Thanks for the beautiful music.
Been playing this over and over on Spotify tonight. Absolutey love it, especially that apex at 4:10 and on, which I'm sure is what you were going for. Total chills. Love it.
I KNEW there was gonna be a breakdown from about 2:56 and you should have seen my face as the song built up from there and at the breakdown I was just like YES I LOVE IT 👏👏👏👏👏. You can NOT recapture my excitement there. Dan in this video just has that presence that's just so badass, like he was the last man on earth or the demon that brought the hell there. This song was so well done. The video fit the vibes. This new album is def going to be a dark one and I CANNOT WAIT. Time to hit repeat 🤩
Sir, this is one of the best pieces I've had the honour of hearing you create. Thank you -it without question resonates deep especially with my own personal demons and traumatic experiences . Be well

This is not a song. This is a mystical experience.
This is a song.
I'm pretty sure this is a song.
This is a song, with mystical experience.
Castles don't survive through kings' emptied hearts
With your hand in mine we conquered it all
We are the stars, the lords of a new age
We are the legends and secret of outrage
We are the ones, bringer of brightest light
All of these castles crumbling tonight
We are the song of conquest and crier
We are the burning of unquenched desire
We are the sun, the sanctity and the light
All of these masters fall away tonight
Breathing ash and flame, our hands we will bind
Crested, no man came to serve single hand
We are the stars, the lords of a new age
We are the legends and secret of outrage
We are the ones, bringer of brightest light
All of these castles crumbling tonight
We are the song of conquest and crier
We are the burning of unquenched desire
We are the sun, the sanctity and the light
All of these masters fall away tonight
I feel you inside me, a stabbing unwinding
And somehow I'm certain, no questions, no lying
You shan't be so frightened, my hands you are carried
And softly reminded it's fate that's behind
A kingdom awaits you, a master obeys you
Be still and be quiet, your heart will not silent
I nurture your touch and your tongue and your violence
You're tender, my firmness, my fire, my kindness
A taste of your softness, I fill you with warning
A comfort, a warmth of a love ever growing
We're tearing away the resistance we scatter
The fear of unknowing we shun ever after
We are the stars, the lords of a new age
We are the legends and secret of outrage
We are the ones, bringer of brightest light
Gotta give it to Daniel. He’s an absolutely incredible artist and I’m so glad he’a able to keep creating music!
So Daniel has started using guitars too in this beautiful song. He never ceases to surprise us!
FANTASTIC !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The screams on this completely penetrate the soul. Incredible.
Can't say I'm surprised by how amazing this is
The entire track is a masterpiece, but the last 90 seconds are mind blowingly transcendent.
Incredible!
Oh man, I love that drum groove. The gentle dancing between the hi hat and the ride cymbals truly help to demonstrate the mood of this song.
One of my favorite vocalists, keep on kicking butt dan, the danimals will be waiting on twitch ❤️❤️❤️
