This is exactly how a band should evolve. They have managed to explore new routes while still killing it, like only Sylosis knows how to. Josh’s voice has developed so well. I think we have a ‘best album of 2023’ on our hands here
Yeah, have to agree, while exploring new sounds and new styles, they're still creating heavy as fuck music to exemplary standards. This is why Sylosis will remain my number 1 band, they always play to perfect standard regardless of style, masters of their craft.
Totally agree, it sounds like sylosis but completely fresh for them at the same time. The last album was their weakest IMHO (though I still enjoyed it) so I’m super excited for this one!
@@hass9510 The way the riffs and solos are written and structured are classic Josh Middleton, he’s an amazing song writer and he definitely has a recognisable writing signature. The new songs are a few steps down in guitar tuning which gives it a darker and heavier feel, but as soon as I heard them it was clearly sylosis. They sound different and familiar at the same time. I’m super excited for the new album!
@@millenwagon Don't get me wrong, I'm super hyped. Edge of the Earth is probably my favorite album of all time, Monolith is up there, and I loved Cycle of Suffering. However, these new songs are just so simple, structured and way less creative than their old stuff. As I said I love it, but I think it doesn't sound like their old albums at all (if you don't count just heavy riffs and fast solos as sounding the same)
Honestly the latest three songs and Hollow is the Crown are such an incredible new direction. Perfect blend of older Sylosis with some more modern metal texture.
I'm glad to hear Josh singing more cleans; I've always liked his voice! I think they're taking some pretty ballsy risks with this album, but it still sounds like Sylosis. This song was frickin' sick!
@latanezimbardo7129 Very good point. Ac/Dc is great, But they never change, You hear one album, you hear them all. It starts to sound repetitive and boring. Evidently the masses don't like change. Look at Iron Maiden or Yngwie Malmsteen. No changes in thier styles. Maybe only vocalist. Def Leppard is a band I can think of that never sounds the same on any album. That get shit for it, But they show alot of versatility and creativeness. Really same for Metallica.
@@BetaIX9t's true that Josh has used cleans on every album he's done vocals on, but they've rarely been at the forefront and the songs featuring clean vocals were rarely (if ever) performed live. Also, Cycle of Suffering only had one song with clean vocals, which made a lot people think Josh was abandoning that style. He doesn't even do the clean parts of Heavy Is the Crown live. This song and Deadwood show that he's become way more confident in his cleans, thus he'll use them more often.
Sylosis are easily my favourite metal band, no one else can give the same vibe that I crave. Dark, heavy, groovy energy. Hits every time man. Love this, love the evolution. You’re a genius Josh.
An album in the style of Edge of the Earth is coming some time in the future, Josh said so on an Instagram Q&A today. Also, he said that the closing track on the new album, A Godless Throne, has EotE vibes, and he played a couple of seconds from the solo section and it sure sounds like that.
Yes I absolutely love EotE and it's probably my fave album but these singles so far have been so damn good I'm feeling like this album, whilst a little different might be up there with it
I think this chrous (1:27) is the best representation of Josh's statement in a recent interview where his producer wanted him to create more memorable moments which were lacking in CoS. Personally I prefer the faster and thrashier sound of EotE and Monolith but this chorus has huge potential to become an iconic moment in metal.
Josh said in yesterday's Q&A on Instagram that he's working on an album in the style of EotE. He didn't say when the album would be released, but it will be some time in the future. Also, he said that A Godless Throne from the new album has EotE vibes, and he wasn't lying - he actually previewed a tiny snippet of the solo off that track and you could hear a melodic solo being played with that rich layering of ambient guitars in the background.
my god this is such a banger the main riff and most of the riffs have this really tasty pantera-esqe groove to them I love it I can't wait for the album to release !
Listened to the track afew times now and everytime i listen i like it abit more, definetly seems like more of a grower track than the immediacy of deadwood and poison for the lost. Good grooves, strong chorus and nice tasteful leadwork, it will be interesting to hear how this works in the context of the rest of the album.
I love how these guys always stay true to their sound. All the while evolving, and improving every aspect of their production. I have not looked forward to an albums release so hard in my life.
I hate to say I'm beginning to see My own reflection in my adversaries I hate to ask But I just need to know Is your finger on the trigger Or can you let go? What's the price of a soul? What's its worth versus gold? I tried to beg for mine But it was already sold Does nobody think twice? What does your hell look like? Does everyone have their price? Where they finally break I hate to say I think it's a sign of things to come Breaking us down one by one I want to say That maybe I'm wrong And when you think it's stopped It bеgins I hate to say I'm not willing to change But all I hear is I'm to blamе Well what a fucking shame What sustains the meek? What keeps you from the peak? We're all apostasies With no souls to speak What does your world look like? Waiting for conflict to strike Do we all have our price? Where we finally break? I hate to say I think it's a sign of things to come Breaking us down one by one I want to say That maybe I'm wrong But maybe I'm not Stoke the fire if it's dwindling Hate keeps those coals burning Are you looking down? Or looked down on? Are you trodden down? Or sat on the throne? I hate to say I think it's a sign of things to come Breaking us down one by one I want to say That maybe I'm wrong But maybe I'm not
It took me a couple listens but now these song are firmly lodged in my head! I love the throwback 80 thrash, standard tuning thing... so refereshing. I can see Josh's time in Architects helped in terms of songwriting chops. I think going out on his own was a solid move!
And im still bathing in the greatness of Deadwood and Poison for the lost.. Sylosis bringing me back to the machine head Burning red through the ashes era..
He's got a lot of lower register moments on the Album "Monolith". A lot more thrash/death metal influence in the sound on that album too. I'd recommend it if you're new to Sylosis, It's a cracker of an album.
Didn't think I could like this band more than I already do but damn these new singles are all masterpieces 👌 🔥 🔥 hate keeps those coals burning 🔥 🔥 🤟 3:00
Once more, of the 8 billion ppl on this rock that I will never know of I am grateful for RUclips and in awe of the talent and vision of the band. Don't remember when I first heard Empyreal but I relish it & many of their songs. Thank You Sylosis & NBR.
I'm a fan. Can't say I was into "poison for the lost" or "deadwood," but this? This is killer. The main riff is a bit Deathy and I dig that, because that's a prevailing reason I've continued to enjoy Sylosis for so long. They are true to the formula. Well done, gentlemen.
They are 3 for 3 this album cycle. Bangers. Honestly, when was the last time a modern metal group dropped 3 bangers in a row like this? If I’m wrong lmk so I can go listen to them!
To tell by the truth the first half of a song I couldn't get rid of the thought that Sylosis now is a usual modern-metal band. BUT THE SECOND PART REFUTES THIS. Awesome solo, sick breakdown. Nice clean vocals. Josh and Sylosis stole my heart since 2008 until now ❤
First let me say, this is the best metal band on the planet. They do NO wrong. I like all the new songs a lot....but I see a lotta comments about masterpiece this and that. Guys, are we just gonna pretend that Cycle of Suffering didnt come out in the middle of a global pandemic and the thing is a front to back BANGER!? Isnt THAT record their masterpiece?? The culmination of everything theyve ever done? For my money, its gonna be difficult to duplicate that album. Having said that, theyre my favorite band - Josh is a genius - Ali is a drum machine - and Ill be a first day buyer of ASOTTC!
Sylosis is probably my favorite band right now. Heard one song and had to check out the whole discography while I was at work a few weeks ago. I am now hooked.
Said it a million times before. And I’ll say it again. This is the most underrated band in metal. 🤘😝🤘
Me too. Hope this albums changes that.
what about Element Eighty?))
@@suk4ed😂
I've been saying it for yrs and I can't believe I have to introduce them to friends who never knew about them !
Love these guys.....Trivium influence😊😊
This is exactly how a band should evolve. They have managed to explore new routes while still killing it, like only Sylosis knows how to. Josh’s voice has developed so well.
I think we have a ‘best album of 2023’ on our hands here
Completely agreed.
I've been listening to these guys for quite a few years now and this album really stands out to me compared to the previous ones.
Yeah, have to agree, while exploring new sounds and new styles, they're still creating heavy as fuck music to exemplary standards. This is why Sylosis will remain my number 1 band, they always play to perfect standard regardless of style, masters of their craft.
A sign of a band evolving into a new version of themselves while staying true to who they are. Can’t wait for this album!
@@panchito1371Me too, and I loved Cycle of Suffering. That's how good this is!
Totally agree, it sounds like sylosis but completely fresh for them at the same time. The last album was their weakest IMHO (though I still enjoyed it) so I’m super excited for this one!
I don’t understand how this sounds anything like old sylosis. I like it, but it’s a completely different band than edge of the earth or monolith.

the album is gonna be too insane for words
not even "Wooooaaaahhhhhhh" or "Holyfkinshitthatsgood" ?
I'm glad to hear Josh singing more cleans; I've always liked his voice! I think they're taking some pretty ballsy risks with this album, but it still sounds like Sylosis. This song was frickin' sick!
I think it's more of a risk if they make a samey record

Do you ever listen to Edge To The Earth? I mean, that album is from Sylosis and Josh used clean vocal im that one.

Had the album on pre-order for weeks, seeing them with Malevolence in November 🤘😃🤘
🤘🏻Im coming over from Portugal to watch them at O2 - can’t wait
hahs cool ... i pre-ordered long time ago and a new shirt (white T with the skull back)... the black cycle of suffering long sleeve is my fav
Sylosis are easily my favourite metal band, no one else can give the same vibe that I crave. Dark, heavy, groovy energy. Hits every time man. Love this, love the evolution. You’re a genius Josh.
Between the vocals and the BADASS riffs, i can never dislike this band. The guitar work is LOVELY 🌹 THE VOCALS are HEAVENLY ❤
Wowww! The Voice ,that riffs ! Best of The beast !
This is top notch. I will forever treasure Monolith and Edge of the Earth era Sylosis, but this new sound is really getting good too.
An album in the style of Edge of the Earth is coming some time in the future, Josh said so on an Instagram Q&A today. Also, he said that the closing track on the new album, A Godless Throne, has EotE vibes, and he played a couple of seconds from the solo section and it sure sounds like that.

THIS BAND IS MY TOP 1, NO DOUBT. We want the full album! Get our money.. bring it on.
Lovin those Dimebag riffs and variety of well executed power and soft lyric styles.
my god this is such a banger the main riff and most of the riffs have this really tasty pantera-esqe groove to them I love it I can't wait for the album to release !
One of the Greatest metal album at last 20 years
Is a masterpiece coming? I'm a Sylosis fan, but all the new singles have exceeded my expectations!
So now do you love the album or do you love the album lol
How they are keep doing this? Another banger, like seriously. Every single song have single quality to them. Fantastic.
It’s simple. I see Sylosis. I click.

pinnacle of modern metal. Can't wait for album
I’m ready for this to melt my face!!
I hate to say
I'm beginning to see
My own reflection in my adversaries
I hate to ask
But I just need to know
Is your finger on the trigger
Or can you let go?
What's the price of a soul?
What's its worth versus gold?
I tried to beg for mine
But it was already sold
Does nobody think twice?
What does your hell look like?
Does everyone have their price?
Where they finally break
I hate to say
I think it's a sign of things to come
Breaking us down one by one
I want to say
That maybe I'm wrong
And when you think it's stopped
It bеgins
I hate to say
I'm not willing to change
But all I hear is I'm to blamе
Well what a fucking shame
What sustains the meek?
What keeps you from the peak?
We're all apostasies
With no souls to speak
What does your world look like?
Waiting for conflict to strike
Do we all have our price?
Where we finally break?
I hate to say
I think it's a sign of things to come
Breaking us down one by one
I want to say
That maybe I'm wrong
But maybe I'm not
Stoke the fire if it's dwindling
Hate keeps those coals burning
Are you looking down?
Or looked down on?
Are you trodden down?
Or sat on the throne?
I hate to say
I think it's a sign of things to come
Breaking us down one by one
I want to say
That maybe I'm wrong
But maybe I'm not
Cheers mate!
sounds like he said worthless as gold
COME ON
We ❤ Sylosis!!
Saying that i'm waiting for this album is an absolute understatement.
SylosiS releasing a new single. I immediately like and know that the song will be great like all the other songs. Waiting for the full album!
It took me a couple listens but now these song are firmly lodged in my head! I love the throwback 80 thrash, standard tuning thing... so refereshing. I can see Josh's time in Architects helped in terms of songwriting chops. I think going out on his own was a solid move!
This song in C#, but feels totally like the classic thrashy metal, agreed, my friend!
Solid track and a great changeup from the first 2 singles. Lyrics and atmosphere are on point
One of the best bands out there.
Delicious, hard-hitting song. The guitar playing never disappoints.
Best Song,Best Band ❤❤
Killer track. These dudes never disappoint
And im still bathing in the greatness of Deadwood and Poison for the lost.. Sylosis bringing me back to the machine head Burning red through the ashes era..
Most underrated band currently
forever the leech is king! melhor banda da história.
What an amazing song. Josh and team just churn these bangers out. So great to see them continue to push the limit and stay the tip of the metal spear!
This is one of a very few universal truths:
You can NEVER go wrong w Sylosis!
Best metal band on the planet right now!
They do rock. 👍
I'm new to Sylosis, big fan of Josh, and my god his lows at 1:50 are something he needs to be incorporating WAY more often.
He's got a lot of lower register moments on the Album "Monolith". A lot more thrash/death metal influence in the sound on that album too. I'd recommend it if you're new to Sylosis, It's a cracker of an album.
Every single, one better than the other! Can’t wait you guys!!
Masterpiece 🔥
Veeery excited for the album now.
Didn't think I could like this band more than I already do but damn these new singles are all masterpieces 👌 🔥 🔥 hate keeps those coals burning 🔥 🔥 🤟 3:00
Yes! This is the new Sylosis WE NEEDED! Love that josh is singing more in this one and that chorus/chorus riff hits like a truck in the catchiest way!
Top top top top❤🔥🔥🔥
That outro breakdown is so fkn killer!!!
"What's the price of our soul? Was it worth less tha gold?"
Long live Tom Searle T//S
Once more, of the 8 billion ppl on this rock that I will never know of I am grateful for RUclips and in awe of the talent and vision of the band. Don't remember when I first heard Empyreal but I relish it & many of their songs. Thank You Sylosis & NBR.
Keep doing this forever, guys. You're awesome!!
Thanks Sylosis for never giving us up!
Easily my fav modern meral band, moving up on my all time list.
Song slaps hard, this album is gonna be the best one yet. I don’t think I’ve been more excited for a release!
Haven't been so excited about an upcoming album for ages. New SylosiS DESTROYS!!!! 🤘
I am exited for the album!!
Let's go 🥳
I can't wait for the whole album
The best metal band from UK actually
I'm a fan. Can't say I was into "poison for the lost" or "deadwood," but this? This is killer. The main riff is a bit Deathy and I dig that, because that's a prevailing reason I've continued to enjoy Sylosis for so long. They are true to the formula. Well done, gentlemen.
Absolutely badass.
I’ll be honest. Took a while to grow on me this song and now I can’t stop repeating it. Unreal.
i love it so much! over and over again and now AGAIN! 😁🤘🔥SYLOSIS🔥
Sylosis in heavy mode. M digging it🤘
Oh man cannot wait for this
This tune just makes me want to roll a joint in a dark place and just mellow out. So good.
Can't wait for this new album, it's going to be 🔥
They are 3 for 3 this album cycle. Bangers. Honestly, when was the last time a modern metal group dropped 3 bangers in a row like this? If I’m wrong lmk so I can go listen to them!
Currents
Orbit Culture
They haven't made a bad album yet.
Rivers of Nihil haven’t done a bad record yet lol. I’d also add Revocation, Allegaeon, AAL. Metal has been on a killer stretch since the 2010’s imo.
@@SlavomirSihtric Good recommendation. I'm hooked on that new Orbit Culture song. I like it a lot. Thanks.
Stellar musicianship! Never disappointed by these guys. Epic all the way around. 🤘
The best song from them yet. Incredible stuff.
I would call it the worst one yet.
@@vorpalbladesI hate to say, I'm beginning to see Sylosis haters on this comment feed
This band keeps getting better with every album. One of the best bands out there. Horns up.
Magnifique !
This new album is seriously gonna bang I can sense it in my y fronts
must have album. definitely.
Give that album now 👊🏻👊🏻

Fking awesome. That’s all you can really say. I can’t wait for the new album
So much Pantera in this one, love it.
he might hate to say that he's not willing to change, but I don't hate to say that this song is a banger
Very good ....new sylosis ❤
