Vektor-Tetrastructural Minds!
amazing song yeah
I'd like to see them do all of Terminal Redux or Forest of Legend to be honest before Tetrastructural Minds. Great song but its overated. Its that song people throw at react channels because its such an insane song. But the same could be said of LCD or Pteropticon or Black Future. Vektor doesn't really have bad songs though....
Khellendross oh LCD is easily one of the most technical songs ever. There is like 15 fucking riffs in there, and most of them are more complex than the solos of some bands xD
yea LCD doesn't even really have much of a solo!
Black Future for that ridiculously fat riff about a minute in to the song.
The whole album is a sci-fi concept album, a big space opera, and this the last song of the album. Its worthy of an entire listen while trying to decipher the story.
This is exactly the reaction I was hoping for when I picked this song.
Couple of things about Vektor. The band is similar to Death in that its largely the brainchild of one man. David DiSanto. David provides, lead vocals (and did the clean vocals here as well) as well as lead guitars, the bulk of the composition and all of the lyrics. They are considered Blackened (Space) Thrash but have very strong progressive elements. The super fast sections and the vocals are pretty indicative of the black metal influence. What makes Vektor special is the insane speed and technicality at which they play while still crafting memorable riffs and integrating stuff like the Pink Floyd inspired middle section.
This is part of a concept album, and the three directly connected songs are Charging the Void, Recharging the Void and Outer Isolation (which is from a previous album). However Recharging the Void features callbacks to multiple songs on the Terminal Redux album. The story is loosely that our protagonist (I won't call him a hero, cause he is certainly not) is exiled from his planet of Cygnus, sent out on his ship (Cygnus Terminal) into a star (Alshain) When he breaches the star, the cosmic dust seals his damaged ship and him as well, granting him immortality. He returns to his home planet and systematically begins destroying those who exiled him. Enacting a technological virus to destroy half the population with the goal towards becoming essentially a god. But eventually evil cannot create, it can only destroy and in the song Collapse (before Recharging on the album) he sees the depth of his evil and decides the only way to change fate is to return himself to Alshain and end his life. That brings us to Recharging the Void. As you can see it is quite the epic story.
This song brings me to tears at around the 11 minute mark when it transitions out of the black metal section into the choir. I think this is one of the best thrash records in the last decade and deserving of the many critical accolades it got in 2016 when it was released. Glad you guys loved it. I hope you will do a full album react to this one because its a seriously astonishing album.
Also you may want to hit up Vektor Official on twitter and see if David will do an interview with you guys. He's a super nice, very soft spoken dude but has a pretty insane creative mind. Would be a fun convo.
It was bad ass for sure !
Khellendross thank u for the explanation. I've been pondering this for years
Khellendross - too bad they disbanded, many think it was due to the girlfriend being well... you know.
The other 3 members already have a band going so you should check them out.
Just wish Vektor stayed together, but women.
well the band didn't disband really (I mean Vektor as an entity is still active). Its similar to Death. Vektor was really David's brainchild. Not to take anything away from the other three who are all amazing, but I tend to think if anything it was about David not wanting to give up ANY creative control. People often said that of Chuck as well. But at the end of the day Death always was able to put out amazing records while constantly reshuffling band members. Vektor will to. David posted some new material about a month ago, so I am pretty sure its not the last of Vektor. Whats the name of the project the other three guys are in?
We had a similar situation to this in the same year with Scale the Summit, but I think in that case Scale the Summit was irrevocably hurt because all 4 guys there wrote the songs. And with just Chris left in the band, the resulting album was...pretty terrible, even with some great guest stars. Time will tell but the little snippet that David posted sounded very intriguing.
Oh one cool thing about Vektor that you might find interesting Vin, being a guitarist. Their songs are all played in F standard. Yes in the modern day of downtuning the shit out of everything, these guys are actually tuning their guitars UP. Crazy. I think it sort of lends to the spacey feel of the music.
In my humble opinion one of the greatest metal songs ever written
NachoFast It's one of the best metal songs on the last decade.
You're not wrong. It is a true modern thrashterpiece.
Facts!
Vektor is a band where 1song=100riffs
The joke is that Vektor puts more killer riffs in one song than metallica or megadeth does in one album. I wouldn't disagree. Though I do feel sometimes (not on this song) they move away from riffs TOO quickly.
this song has 24 riffs, not joking
Vektor is hands down one of the greatest metal bands to ever exist. I consider them way up there when it comes to composition and making a genre like thrash sound so refined and refreshing. Same can be said of Revocation. I would really like to see you guys react to Advent Sorrow - Pestillence Shall Come (been requesting it for months), but would also like to see your thoughts on Amorphis - The Bee, and Insomnium - Revelation.
These kids played just down the street from where I lived for years in Mesa, AZ. I watched them grow from a small hometown band that no one knew about to a thrash dynasty. Amazing.This song and this album... and all of their albums are thrash masterpieces. Cheers to Dave and Erik for the best of hometown shows a metalhead could ask for! Look at my channel and you'll see several videos recorded from my phone from their last hometown shows with the original 4 members. I've probably seen them at least 15 times live here.
Makes me happy being from Arizona too!! I have a band to be proud of 😂
do LCD...by Vektor
Probably the most epic intro to a song ever
IT'S A CRYSTAL DISEASE
Collapse-Vektor
Yeah 👍👍👍👍
One of my fav
Terminal Redux was the first piece of physical music I’ve ever owned. This album is absolutely incredible.
Is it this record ?
Yup! Here's a link to the album www.metal-archives.com/albums/Vektor/Terminal_Redux/562580 Recharging The Void is a good song off the album, but LCD is probably my favorite.
Great reaction, I love his vocals , he has that sacrifice/death sound, brilliant song, 10/10 for your channel
Al Shain means the Falcon. I hope you react to whole album someday. This song is a short summary+conclusion, you would appreciate it on a whole new level after learning the whole story. Not to mention all songs are amazing.
Boom!
This yes. Fantastic concept album! You have to listen to this album from beginning to end while reading the lyrics on the way. Very very worth it! Their other two albums are amazing as well, however their third and final album(this one) is my personal favorite.
Vocals remind me of Chuck Schuldiner during Sound of Perseverance. I like how a lot of their leads sound very chromatic!
Roman Godinez I was fixing to say the same exact thing! Vocals sound alot like Chuck
Listen to Black Future by Vektor, one of the greatest thrash songs ever.
A B I believe this is their best song, Recharging the Void, but sure I like that entire album as well.
It's a combination of Chuck and Dani Filth from Cradle. It's an awesome mix
This band's logo and the sound of their music sounds like they are a tribute to Voivod. They are not bad at it. You should react to Voivod killing technology or dimension hatross. Those are classics.
while their inspirations from Voivod are pretty apparent, I don't think they sound musically that much like them. Bits here and there and obviously the whole space thrash idea owes a big part to them. But I see alot more Destruction in their sound than Voivod to be honest.
It's like the metal version of 2112
Rush was one of David DiSanto's (singer/songwriter) biggest influences, if you read some of his interviews.
sopwithsnoopy I've never heard of these guys before but hearing that it doesn't surprise me that they would write something like this
The 2nd song on this Vektor album is 'Cygnus Terminal' :) A nod to Rush's 'Cygnus X-1' maybe?
sopwithsnoopy yup, it is. He said so in an interview
I'm from Argentina guys... From all the world people likes your channel!
This may be sacrilegious, but this has replaced lateralus as my favorite metal song of all time.
Huh. Was not expecting Vektor. Noice!
E: I don’t think it’s your fault you’re covering some songs that other popular channels have. I’d blame that on the viewers. “Hey, this person reacted to this song. I should get Vin and Sori to do it, too!” Unless you’re going through the libraries of other reaction channels constantly, you won’t know that that’s what’s going on.
Fendran M you're completely right
Most bands would create 6-7 different songs with these riffs and these guys put them all in one
This album is an amazing concept album. It’s a masterpiece and probably my favorite album from the decade.
Helloween Keeper of the seven keys!!!
congrats for the 30.000!!!! hope you share with us a lot of more music to discover new bands/genres
The 3 main stars of the constellation Aquila are Altair, Alshain, and Tarazed. "Shahin-I Tarazu" is an Arabic phrase meaning "the balance" and is where the names of Alshain and Tarazed are derived. Altair is derived from "Al-Nasr Al-Tair" meaning "The Flying Eagle".
Your reactions especially halfway through the song were priceless! I also dig the lyrical analysis in the end. Keep up the good work guys!
They only have one singer. The female vocals are from a studio singer
This entire album is amazing! Vektor have three albums, and all three are masterpieces.
What a wonderful band!!! What a wonderful people!!! Love you both.
LOVE the entire album! Thanks for drawing some attention to these guys!
So happy you've been sporting that shirt ever since. This is the work of a genius.
Vektor is THE best thrash metal in the last 2 decades. This album is a gem, and so is their first one!
Freaking love this band
Hell yeah!! Vektor!! Love this album! This album cover was my computer desktop for like a year after this album came out haha.
Nice! By back patch is Black Future :)
Thank you, thank you, thank you! You made a terrible day a whole lot better. Vektor is my favorite band, my back patch on my battle vest is Black Future (their first record). Yea this song is crazy. It is part of a concept album. The story is loosly as follows (the short version):
Protagonist (iso subject 5) is part of an isolation experiment, he is sent into space so that they can test how isolation effects humans (this is also a form of banishment). He reaches the remenants of the super nova of Alshain (Alshain went boom). And in there he finds a particle that gives immortality. So they do achieve it, but later on that. He comes back and starts to assume complete control over the government. After he does that, he sterilizes the population, makes everyone immortal with the particle and becomes an all powerful dictator. The humans are now immortal and unable to procreate, and after some time they realize that they have gone too far and that this is no way to live. They have achieved everything, they have explored the universe and found no closure. So they all board the Cygnus Terminal (a massive space terminal left from the previous government) and go to Alshain, toward a fiery grave if you will. There they enter the cloud left from the supernova (the star is long dead). And they set the terminal to self destruct. In the first song, Charging the Void, they say Relic Alshain, Oh shahin i tarazu now my flesh is born anew. And in this last song they say Relic Alshain, oh shahin i tarazu I return my flesh to you. That is why they choose this star in particular. It is the star that gave them immortality and they are returning it. *exhales*
Great review, welcome to the cult, Sci-Fi or die!
Next do Vektor - Forests of Legend :)
Yes Forest of Legend next
Don't forget the bands who deserve another chance because of bad song choices.
Porcupine tree, Dream theater, Cult of luna
and don't forget Opeth. Vin said next week 3 weeks ago.
Mic Zen do we know what opeth song?
It will probably be Ghost of perdition but I'd rather see something from Blackwater park. Bleak or the title track.
Serenity Painted Death is also a good choice. One of the best riffs of Opeth.
Mic Zen yeah..... all the review channels do ghost of perdition so.... good chance your right
Jason Kramer I do hate that, really hope they do Blackwater Park, it’s a better rounded song of Opeth’s sound
Between the Buried and Me - Silent Flight Parliament/ Goodbye to Everything Reprise is a good contender for the best long song ever
hah, i remember rewuesting this song a couple weeks ago, never thought it would see the light of day here ! Thanks for doing it!
it's always good to see you guys react to bands for first time. it's better than doing most popular bands over and over again. there are lots of different tastes, different colors in metal for you to discover.
I love Vektor! One of the best finds of my 2016.
Dissection - Thorns of Crimson Death (Live 2004 from Rebirth of Dissection) 🔥🔥🔥
yes
I'd like to hear them do something more simple and primal like Dissections live version of Elizabeth Bathory. Even though it's a Tormentor song I think Dissections version is pretty definitive
8:52: 'On the Turning Away' by Pink Floyd. Obviously Vektor, as their "mentors" Voivod, loved them :) Loved it!
yep! absolutely a inspiration to that section.
You guys should revisit Vektor. This is one of the few videos I have seen where you have so much fun listening to the song!
Awesome song. I’ve never heard vekter before. Thanx for the reaction, great conversation after. Keep up the good work.
Congrats on 30K yall been real since day 1
saw Vektor at Bloodstock 2016 in the UK, specifically waited for them all day to stand up on the railing in front of the stage. it was my highlight of the festival! really happy to see you guys react to them!
Tribulation - The Lament
Father John Misty - Pure Comedy
Another great video! Nice one, really enjoy watching these reaction videos and discussions. Greetings from the Island of Malta!
This is an incredible album and song. Might be one of the best metal songs of alltime
one of my favourite bands
Between the buried and me "Ants of the sky". :)
This comment needs more recognition.
Are you a fan of old school Protest the Hero? I miss that band. Arif was the brainchild and when the drummer quit Arif left soon after.
@@Moneyman-33 all pth is amazing. Their new stuff doesn't get enough recognition. But Scurrilous is my favorite.
madeofwax92 Their new stuff is honestly awful. Just my opinion. Their bass player was the mastermind behind their first two albums. And he and the original drummer both quit the band.
Scurrilous was there last decent effort. Fortress and Kezia were was above the other albums in terms of songwriting.
@@Moneyman-33 if you don't like it, fine, but it is by no means awful. Both albums are great. Different, but great.
I own this CD and have listened to it lots of times, but only hearing now brings out all the richness. It all washed over me before.
Nice to see something not being Pantera-Big Four-Priest-Maiden-Sabbath-Motorhead etc. (like you said in the beginning). I hate when people spam requests for songs/bands with multiple reaction videos already.. still many of my favourite songs I haven't seen others take joy in discovering, which would be cool.
EDIT: I've seen it now, and I loved your positively surprised reactions, especially Vin towards the guitars and the groove shift. I'd recommend "THE HOLOGRAPHIC PRINCIPLE" from Epica. It's 11:35 long, and someone made a REALLY good lyric video for it on RUclips. The instruments, vocals and lyrics are all top notch. + the guitar solo in the intro is SO DAMN TASTY! And it's a great entry point to Symphonic Metal (although it's better than most other symph-metal songs). Plus, you would have a lot to talk about in regards to the lyrics!
Didn't even start yet, but I am so happy you did Vektor! Tetrastructural Minds is my personal favorite, those highs are so good.
that was crazy. gives me goosebumps everytime
Ohh my God thank you for doing this!!
Congrats on 30k! And yea some reaction channels do a lot of the same, people always ask for the same though. Just more popular bands. You guys do a good job at doing a mix of big and small bands
Thank you !
VinAnd Sori you're welcome! Always enjoy watching your videos at night, keep up the good work!
VinAnd Sori not letting me register for the village. Could it be cause I'm on mobile?
Hopkins+Nolan+Crichton=Westworld. Do i need to say more? Go for it
Good choice love this band.
That edit in the video was amazing!
Congrats on 30k
Yes!!! Best thrash album of the century :)
In my opinion it gives every 80s classic a run for its money :)
@@ivangushkov3651 I know that's probably sacrilege, but I tend to agree with you..... I never thought this would be possible until I heard Vektor about a year ago....
How did I not see this earlier, this is one of my favorite songs.
One of the best metal bands in the world
YEEEAH! I have yet to see someone react to Vektor! Woooo!
It is a concept album, it's amazing and you guys need to hear it start to finish.
Literally the greatest thrash band of modern times. Nothing released by Metallica, Megadeth etc in the same period even comes close to their greatness.
I don't get why they are lumped into the thrash sub genre. To me, it's far more death/ prog metal with even some black metal influences. Then again some riffs are realy thrashy. Who cares anyway, this album is a masterpiece.
Patrick cellar door At it's core it's thrash, that's how the band identifies.
Patrick cellar door Progressive blackened sci fi themed technical thrash metal lol
Patrick cellar door Many thrash bands incorporate blast beats and death metal riffs into their songs, like: Warbringer, Solstice, Hellwitch, Sarcofago
@@henrywalton5967 The irony in your comment is that it makes sense lol
This band brings back memories of when I saw them at The Clubhouse in Tempe. They were just a couple years in, so like maybe 2005/2006. They sound so much different. David DiSanto has grown so much as a musician.
One of my favorite albums.
Yall gotta check out their first record Black Future. It is one of the best metal albums ever.
I’m so fucking glad y’all reacted to this, this album is a fucking masterpiece!!!!!
Oh I know of vektor. I love vektor. Please react to Killswitch engage a tribute to the fallen. Or Skeletonwitch I am death.
Testament There is a major lack of Skeletonwitch reactions on RUclips.
Best reaction video yet
so far the best tech thrash band ever . Also probably need to listen to this album a few times to grasp it for a proper reaction .
Great video! Glad you guys finally tried Vektor. I would like to suggest the song Tetrastructural Minds. I have a feeling you would love that one too.
Sci-fi week would work! Plenty of good choices there.
Amazing band and great reaction, thanks
Vektor! Great band. One of my rare concessions to teh mainstream!
the background singers are only on two songs ( this one, and the first part of this song called charging the void) if i'm correct. This was the conclusion of the album terminal redux, and it's a concept album. The clean and screaming voice was the same singer.
And if I remember correctly the closest star to eart is PROXIMA centauri. 'Adrjusts glasses' :D
Great job guys
One of my favorite albums of all time
Septicflesh-Prometheus
I may not comment it on every video anymore but I still would love to see some Agalloch!
Starting off this one, looking forward to the reaction. Vektor are a ton of fun
mad love the vocals in this song
Never heard these guys. I dig it =)
Between the Buried and Me - White Walls/Lay Your Ghosts to Rest/Extremophile Elite/Telos/Melting City/Silent Flight Parliament + Goodbye to Everything Reprise, any of these
This is Space Opera!..🤘😍👏👏👏
Great reaction you two! Always love your vids Vin and Sori. You both should check out Biohazard "Punishment", Toxic Holocaust "Wild Dogs", Satyricon "Fuel for Hatred" and Immolation "A Glorious Epoch"!
You cannot fully grasp the lyrics of this song without listening to the full album. The entire album tells a story and this song is the closer, and the lyrics of this song reference the past songs and events (as it is a concept album) constantly.
whoooo VEKTÖRRR!!!
Curious, do y'all take requests for songs to react to? and if so, do y'all have a specific place where one can leave a request?
42:50 "the musicianship was CRAZY..." David DiSanto is singing (screaming) while playing those crazy riffs. On most of the album, the two guitarists are playing different things at the same time, wether it be harmonies or different chord inversion or whatnot. And as others have stated, they tune UP to F-standard :)
sopwithsnoopy they tune up a whole step? Are there any other bands that do that?
Only a half-step. From E (standard guitar tuning) to F is only a half-step because there is no E-sharp/F-flat. But no, I don't know of any other metal bands that tune UP, since tuning down gives chords and notes a heavier sound. There are some pretty heavy bands out there that still use standard E tuning, like Sylosis.
I dunno of anyone else that tunes to F. Its pretty unique. And definitely is a part of their unique sound. I'd love to interview David sometime and find out where they hit upon that idea of tuning up. But to sopwithsnoopy's point. its a half step due to the lack of a e sharp. Also there are alot of bands like Sylosis that use standard tuning or E Flat (half step down) Iced Earth for example. So you definitely don't need to tune to Drop C or the like to get a super heavy feel in your music.
Also... Good analysis. The band has a phrase that they put on shirts and shit: "sci-fi or die!" -- they're badass
I'm glad your happy with the Sweden
Guy,now could you do some Swedish
Metal,Meshuggah(Demiurge,Marrow
Do Not Look Down,Straws Pulled At
Random,Violent Sleep Of Reason,
MontroCity) any of those songs will
Do,lol.This song has alot of Death and
Opeth influence in this.Until next time
C YA🤘👹
I'm a simple man. I see Vektor, I click play.
Yes I love this album!
Vektor are excellent. They were highly influenced by the band Voivod so you may want to check them out at some point as well, to see where a lot of the ideas in Vektor were first explored.
Also friendly reminder for Deathspell Omega - Sola Fide II
Can't wait for them to do DSO, I've seen you shouting them out bigtime! Props man, I want them to review it as well.
I don't try and make a ton of suggestions... just enjoy the channel! You two are my kind of people! Check out the band Satyricon - Wolfpack. One of my favorites!
On the list!
Satyricon is badass!
Also, there's a comic being made about Terminal Redux.
The first few times listening to this you can't try to read and understand the lyrics. Just sit back and take it all in. This song is the final song on their Terminal Redux album. It's a deep sci-fi space travel concept album so you need to understand all the other songs in order to understand the story this song is telling. I just turn it up and enjoy the sonic journey.
