LYRICS
They want you dead.
They want you finished.
They want you signed, sealed and delivered.
Sent to the grave.
A flame extinguished.
Another crooked soul to be relinquished.
Repressed, another patient admitted.
Depressed, another lie contradicted.
Regress, go figure no fucking answers.
Except to save yourself at the expense of another
Contraband won’t protect you,
when there’s a contract on your head.
So tell me why you’re killing all your friends.
Contraband won’t protect you.
Not when the war’s inside your head.
So tell me why you’re killing all your friends.
Ghost, lifeline,
Will you come save me.
They want you dead.
They want you finished.
They want you signed, sealed and delivered.
Sent to your end.
A flame extinguished.
Another crooked soul to relinquish.
You keep telling us to die for something, and yet you fight for nothing.
Ghost, lifeline,
Getting help from you is a fine line.
Ghost, lifeline,
You could build a home from all your lies.
Contraband won’t protect you,
when there’s a contract
on your head.
So tell me why you’re killing all your friends.
Contraband won’t protect you.
Not when the war’s inside your head.
So tell me why you’re killing all your friends.
Ghost, lifeline, will you come save me?
Pick me, pick me, pick me.
They want you dead.
Pray for the end.

I love y'all, I love Make Them Suffer; this was the best thing collaboration all year. Thank you both ♥
It would be better if Courtney sang the chorus, anyways is a cool song.
Sooo much good music coming out right now! I swear to god you guys have made everyone else step up their game...seriously. See you in August.
Spirit box and Make them suffer would be a great tour, just saying 😜
Now y’all need to get Sean on a Spiritbox song
I refuse to believe this could be anything but a pure banger
It’s a pure banger, trust
Banger doesn't even begin to describe this. Best song I've heard in 3 years.
come on nik.. u need to unboxin this shit..
Live stream reaction straight after the premier? Would mean you can't watch the premier though 🤔
I'm expecting a cover 10 minutes after it drops.
Oh ya, the neighbors are definitely listening to this too.
Your neighbor are some awesome peeps , go give them a beer
Yup, they don't have a choice!
Haha this made me laugh 😅 good stuff
293 other peoples neighbours heard it too
Why don’t you turn it up a littler more just to make sure.
Why are all my friends not into metal core this shit goes hard as fuck
Same. I still make them listen it though 😂
Get better friends 😂 🤗 hahaha
Because they don’t ride motorcycles and go fast
Careful what you wish for...Tik Tok will find a way to ruin metal core.
@@FirstLast-zv5od Like tiktok is a must-have in your life, lol sorry but never installed that crap and never will, why would my brain have to be stimulated every 10 seconds?
When Courtney screamed “Go”
I felt things
She wasn't specific on where TO go, but I knew
I really did it too, I stopped what I was doing and I was shocked for a min there, didn't expect this would come out of her
"GO" proceeds to rush the mosh pit with everything I have
That’s a little sus
I feel this comment.
When Courtney says Go..
YOU. GO.
As much as I love Courtney, there is nowhere near enough props being thrown to Sean. Man absolutely slayed those vocals. Especially that ending.
Things were destroyed.
The ending was in fact dirty af 🔥🤘👊
As Nik said, a master rawrer
Yeah, Courtney is amazing as always, Sean was so brutal on the first verse and the ending, and Booka nailed the chorus.
Her voices fits the band better she shoulda run this track by herself
@@kwamecoleman-wz8bp worst opinion ever goes to you, kid.
To be honest, I'd listen to 3 hours of someone scratching their finger nails down a chalkboard if it said "feat. Courtney LaPlante"
xd. Hilarious
You’re full of crap. She’s better than half the female metal artists.
@@cameronlong1650 ... he didn't say anything bad... i think
@@UrbanHim but you didn't say nothing wrong :/
@@sacarymoviesamu I'm saying i'd listen to literally anything that features Courtney LePlante because she's incredible, but @Cameron Long needs to book himself in for an intelligence transplant because he clearly doesnt think she's that good!
Courtney fucking kills it man, good feature. This song is a banger.
The mashup we didn't know we needed.
i knew...courtneys what ryo from crystal lake was for a couple years...features out the ass and im all for it!
Love Spiritbox
This is the best song and better metalcore band ever!!! 😍 and i love this riffs from Nick 🤤 never disappoint🤘🏻🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
We don’t need this
The mash up we did not know exist until now
I can die happy knowing Booka and Courtney's voices were on the same track
"what's that one video game with the yellow guy who eats dots?"
me: 3:38
Holy shit. This is sooo fucking good. The riffs, the vocals, the melodies, the mix... everything. Incredible stuff, guys.
The red rose is an immediate call back to Neverbloom
But it’s not neverbloom vibes bro.
@@youtubesbichasspolicys5888 :(((
Feels like a lot in this film clip is a call back to other clips they've done/motifs they've included in other songs (they do it all the time to be fair). The spiders seems like a call back to the Spider metaphor in Widower, the flowers on the eyes from How to Survive a Funeral, Sean sitting in the chair exactly like the Lord of Woe is on the Lord of Woe EP cover. Seems to be once again linking back many other songs they've done. Hoping this means that a new album is actually on the way, and it's not just an in between releases song like Hollowed Heart or 27 🤞
@@youtubesbichasspolicys5888 after albums 1 and 2 I haven't been able to get into any of their other stuff. More power to those who enjoy it though.
The orchestral parts is giving me neverboom vibes too as well tho
We are truly witnessing the golden age of Australian metal.
What a time to be alive.
This Aussie? Not even surprised. Tf is going on over there. The metalcore scene is next level.
Elitist boomers: tHiS iSnT mEtAl
Check out For all Eternity. They aren't around anymore but they were amazing.
There's a big ass spider in this video, definitely Australian
Booka's cleans are insane
Booka and Courtney together. My life is now complete. Love it. Make them suffer/spiritbox never disappoint. Please come back to florida on tour
I want them to come to Seattle!
And now there's Alex, who's basically Booka and Courtney fused together.
Now let’s just imagine, for a second, an album where every song is comprised of both Make Them Suffer AND Spiritbox. All members. Together. 12 or more songs. NEED.
Sweet jesus...
@@tylerherman723 I don’t think the world would be able to handle such a masterpiece lol
I don't think my brain could handle that man
Honestly this is needed! Northlane and in hearts wake did it and that album was a banger
@@Lord0fWoe yep! It was a pretty good album for sure
Me: "Wait is this chorus in major or minor?" MTS: "Yes"
The piano in this too. Shifts seamlessly between major and minor and is such a head trip for my brain. I love it!
Precisely lol the chorus is perfection
lmfao, modulates
@theimmortalsOH true also...you could always write everything in measures of 1/64 sigs and no scale reference longer than that, just roots and 3rds then have fun memorizing the chord sequences with a drummer like dude from Metalocalypse cartoon likes 300 bpm tempo settings or something and _try_ to improv measure by measure... I'd probably jokingly refer to that as the really fast "fake" book on crack... you'd definitely need network assistance for that silliness I would think.
The whole structure is immense as fuck!
All you youngsters listen up!! At 52 I dont keep going back "stuck in the olden days",!! I keep looking for to the best new music!! Slayer, Metallica etc are good to have in your digital library, but never stop looking. This band has got me all excited again just like the first listen to the likes of Venom or Iron Maiden. WOW!! I want to get my Charvel Model 6 out the attic!! If they come the UK I would donate it to the guitarist!!
Some bands might worth a listen: iwrestledabearonce, Spiritbox, Unicron (all with Courtney LaPlante).
Other than that; Sinch, Soulfly, Machine Head, Deftones, Fit for a King.
man I couldn't have read a better post today. I realized that, partially thanks to Pandora, I'm stuck in the "good ol days" for music at 29 that to me means like 2006-2016 metalcore, with a few exceptions for genre's or years. But its like I keep listening to the same songs. Today I realized alot of those favorite bands of mine have new music out now and I should be watching new music as much as I watch the news. Thanks man!
Thy art is murder and slaughter to prevail are both good too, but they're more of deathcore instead of metalcore, good stuff though
Periphery and Northlane will get you up to speed for this modern metalcore/prog genre. You might like melodic metal like Amaranthe too.
AllI can say is, ' Polaris' . I'm the same age as you. Do yourself a favour and check them out!
Everyone is talking about Courtney. She has killed it like she always does. But I am in love with Booka, her angelic clean vocals are so fucking awesome!
Yess I agree! But I do love Courtney lol this track is just killer with all 3 vocalists!
@@auroraxxfacekilla49 right
Only on studio.
@@fcr9753 watch Courtney do her Holy Roller vocal performance 😗 remember she's never had vocal lessons in her life
@@twinny_mi Booka.
Banger incoming!!!
Metalcore has definitely become one of my favorite genres, but it's like all the bands are having a contest on who can have the most weird random shit in their videos 😂
Lel
Facts
bilmuri
@@chasecvlt dude that PowerPoint music video is hilarious and one of my all time fav music vids
Well Dir En Grey wins
Those are some insane riffs. No matter how much he's getting paid right now, give him a raise. 1:31 to 2:28 almost cost me an insurance claim for property damage.
Lol. For real! Make you wanna throat punch someone. Haha. Love it
Me too, im in love with her.....
Facts
Yes Courtney, yes Booka, yes Sean. Obviously. But my god, those GUITAR TONES.
We have reached peak audio mixing
Drew Fulk was the producer for this. He also produced some killer albums for other bands like Emmure, Chelsea Grin and Motionless In White, and he really knows how to make everything sound absolutely thick and crushing.
Top tier riffy metalcore tone
Since the song is not on Spotify or Apple music right now, don't be surprised if this video has 1M views by tomorrow, it's all me.
It's on Spotify
@@anahernandez6949 I was gonna say this too cuz I just added it to one of my playlists. Lol
ABSOLUTELY LOL
But now it's already on Spotify! I'm listening literally nonstop
9 hours later and its at 55k
if you can script and have that many VMs running with packet editors we gotta chat.
why this song has not reached the million views yet?
Add up all the views that reaction channels have for this video probably over 3 million lol
Courtney's screaming vocals always give goosebumps, the good kind
I love how Courtney delivers her vocals on music videos as if she’s just talking casually, and she’s actually doing a disgusting low.
Thats the part I hate honestly, her vocals are a full of emotion and then there's her in the video looking like an emotionless robot.
Well I think that's kinda cringe
@@Daniel_S1411 yeah I agree. It drives me nuts. Sean is so full of animation and body language and Courtney is super stiff and lifeless despite her incredible vocals.
@@doom3crazy definitely agree, Sean is getting no where near the credit he deserves on the new song.
That's literally the only thing I don't like about Courtney lol. It looks so stupid and she she does that in almost every video. I guess that's her thing, but I prefer to see if the emotion she shows when doing live sessions.
Courtney saying "GO" in a MTS song makes my life complete
You can start a proper circlepit with a go like that
Courtney literally has a necklace that says Courtney. That made me laugh.
Wow i never noticed that before even though i watched this video a thousand time already . You have good eyes my friend
How the FUCK did I miss this for two years? 1 minute in and it's already going on so many play lists.
What a BANGER collab.
Hey!! I'm here to
@@thelastdaybreathinginetern1385 nice dp and username
@@nikhilshakya51 It's my One man band project name, and thank you!
Everyone talking about Courtney (for good reason), but HOW ABOUT BOOKA?!?? Sounds like she gets more confidence with each song, and it's only making this band even better than they already were. :D
Very true. Her cleans are heavenly.
Because it's a pale shadow of what she did on Erase Me 🤷
@@nolankuffner3573 you can do better?
and no one talking about sean. just a bunch of simps for booka and courtney
@@spectre722 It's really funny how you're annoyed that women are getting recognition for being good at something
Vocalist Sean Harmanis says of this track "Lyrically, the song is about everything and nothing at the same time. It's about relationships with friends and family. But it's also a low-key political song, as well as an expression of the frustrations surrounding COVID and its impact on our lives, particularly as members of the music community."
like that s/n...and your points
The community of the music that genere is so hard, because they not have support's.
I think it's about the metal scenes in certain areas. If a certain band is just kicking too much ass, the other bands start to hate them. They want them dead, and start planting seeds of destruction. I've seen it happen.
@@abyrnebyrne5117 that can be true. I used to get at least 10 death threats daily from people arguing (I tried to keep it logical) with me about evolution, philosophy and religion... I didn't outright attack anyone verbally, did invite them to show up, check the weapons and don gloves if they wanted to go to my backyard sand pit for a match up... but I always tried to keep a modicum of respect for all opinions and win others with an open world view and acceptance that people won't always agree. Yeah, no matter how you handle things sometimes they emotionally spiral out...
I hope they're not referring to taking the vaccine
Those layered screams between Sean and Courtney are 🔥
Don't mind me.. I'll just be sitting here waiting on my two favorite bands to drop this NUKE
I think everyones overlooking the real hero of these bangers, Nick Mclernon is a fucking weapon. Deserves all the credit he gets
agreed that chromatic run he does on the 2nd half of verse riff sounds so fucking cool
This reminds me so much of 2004-2008 when metalcore was so friggin' good. Constant touring bands putting out new CDs, playing shows, etc. Walls of Jericho, Bleeding Through, Agony Scene and so on. It's so great that there's bands still doing this genre justice. I'm a fan.
counterparts and boundaries too. that real og metalcore that we love
Sean's lows are unreal. Hot damn. There is nothing I don't like about this song, and Courtney's verse is the *chef's kiss*.
Shame about everything else about his voice...
@@insertgenericusernamehere2402 wdym
@@nameless6886 it sounds so.... Weak. It would be like putting that guy from avenged sevenfold in spite.
one thing to dislike - the chorus, ngl big miss with that one
“Erase me” crossfades perfectly after this. Pure bliss. 🖤
I literally just tried this and you're not wrong,,,damnnn
I feel like MTS songs kind of just flow lyrically like....am I making sense 😭 after playing erase me I played grinding teeth and vortex it just flows
2 important things to say:
Booka: your voice is pure fucking magic
Sean: what the hell dude, you sound demonic in the last breakdown, love it
PRAAAAYYYY FOOOOR THE UUUUUUUUUUND
If you consider that sounding "demonic" I bet you never heard neverbloom album he was wayyyy better back then, now they sound like any metalcore band lol
Bring back dem Lord of Woe, Eternal Cold lows. mmmmm
I dig the new stuff too, but those first couple albums were a sweet spot for me.
@@God_Markov lol bro their last release was one of the more unique Metalcore releases of last year and it was too fucking tier, why do you think that? I’m genuinely very curious
@@AustinDToTheJ facts bro that was a fantastic album. I have been kind of moving away from metalcore lately, but they are one of the bands that has stuck with me
You forgot Courtney 🔥
Siick!!
Since you guys are so good at covering other songs i think you should give this one a good try aswell.
Courtney's part is fuckin sick as hell. Killer jam!
just got hooked on both these bands recently. can't believe this is actually gonna happen but really looking forward to it!!!!!
Probably come from Courtney doing a interview with Booka on her podcast.
Check out widower from MTS
Old MTS slaps. Completely different tho. Way heavier. Used to be deathcore. I’ve been listening since the Neverbloom single dropped.
I wish I could go back and experience Make Them Suffer for the first time again. Much envy!
You're Australian so that doesn't give you a right to scare us with fucking spiders man😓
Mate huntsmans are everywhere down here haha to the point they will surprise you by crawling over your face at random
@@zerozeeros how come you don't burn your houses down?
We reserve the right to scare you with dropbears though.
@@martinlaukkanen1652 effin drop bears will kill ya
@@thekiminthenorth504 cos we aren’t pussies
man those cleans are amazing, angelic almost
Now i understand why a lot of youtubers enjoyed this song so much. It's gorgeous.
2:13
Damn, this hits so hard!! That's why I'm in love with MTS: pure savage, banger moment and then emotional chorus...
Also, it does djent 😉
Can't agree more
Total chaos
okaaay, MTS is kinda my everyday music with SpiritBox, this song def gonna be everyday song!
it still is!
Everything Courtney touch is pure gold.
All I saw was Make Them Suffer feat. Courtney LaPlante and I'm sold
OH MAAAAANN.. Courtney's vocals in this make the chillz intenseeee. This song RIPS
Don't get me wrong I love all of Bookas stuff but this is by far my favourite chorus from her!
This whole song is so fucking good! 🔥🔥❤❤
That major twist at the end of it is pure fire 🔥
Agreed, outstanding chorus, as well as the entire song tbh!!!
Is this the best song ever? Some may say
Sean and Courtney LaPlante in the same song? There's not a metric to grade that much f**king awesome. As always, incredible work.
Just waiting for Courtney’s part and even tried to think “don’t be biased.”
Nah. She crushed this bro!
As someone who just pushed a friend away because of depression this song spoke to me deeply wow.
I feel that.
I've done this exact thing hundreds of times. Feeling like I was worthless and didn't deserve people that I loved and cared for in my life. I wasn't worthy. And my depression tries to sabotage everything, including friendships. I'll NEVER be able to be in a relationship again because of my depression. And I'm 33. By choice, haven't been with a woman (I'm straight) in 9 years. I'm the type to watch a movie where there's a love and relationship that comes together and I get sad and overwhelmed because I wish that could be me. That romantic lovey dovey movie scene where everything is perfect... And it's stamped with an eventual kiss. But Im told by my depressive inner dialogue that I don't deserve that and I'm pathetic and there's no reason to even second thought the idea of ever being truly loved. It fucking sucks. I'm sorry your depression made you push away something deserving in your life. :( *Hugs*
It's so crazy how Courtney's vocals are intense being so amazing but at the same time she looks pretty I gotta say this song is fire too me because I love Make Them Suffer and Courtney LaPlante along with Spiritbox
i see that energy that cares less for commas
Those guitar lines are just perfect
This song is a fucking banger. As soon as Courtney screamed THEY WANT YOU DEAD I got chills and Booka kills it with the chorus as well. And that breakdown at the end...Holy shit. Well done people well done
What a great dam song. All angles are on point. Sean going hard, Booka's chorus, Nick is shrrrredding with that guitar riff. And Courtney is just amazing as always.
I have never encountered anything with Courtney LaPlante that wasn’t an absolute banger.
What a straight banger!!!!
You ever hear a song so fucking good that it makes you tear up from pure joy and leaves a big dumb smile on your face? Yeah well that’s me every time MTS releases a song. Good fucking shit with this masterpiece
Exactly, could not have said it any better.🤘
no, usually tears of sadness
This song is a perfect banger. Every second is bliss.
That red face at 2:13 is everything!
An absolute all around banger. LaPlante brought me here, but I am staying around for yalls amazing sound with or without her.
Courtney Is the best thing In metal.
She’s the hottest thing in metal today
She really is! 💜 I want her face tattooed on me, that is how much i adore her as a person, and as an amazing vocalist and writer!
@@angelherrera356 Can we not objectify her
@@voxextremos22 Then word it yourself dummy
Could you imagine hearing this LIVE??? This needs to happen...SpiritBox... Make Them Suffer... Lets make this happen... PLEASE! This is SOOOOO good!
You need a band like like Make Them Suffer to properly eccentuate Courtney's abilities. This song is on another level.
This song is just that bloody good, the breakdown legit made my eyes roll into the back of my head in pleasure. Absolute monster of a track in the best way possible.
The red wall with the face reminds me of RED’s Until We Have Faces
I thought the same thing!
That was my FIRST thought too!
A lot heavier though
@@voxextremos22 No one said anything about heaviness. Just that the style is almost the spitting image of Red's album cover "Until We Have Faces."
This is really catchy and more than just a heavy song.
This song is a banger!!!
Those spider on the face parts creeped me out 😂 belter of a song though! 🤘🙏
Holy shit .. Everything is perfect! Sean harmanis is a great vocalist/song writer
Anything Courtney LaPlante touches is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥.
They need to tour together...period
I have to admit, I've never heard of this band until a few days ago this song, prominently mentioning "featuring Courtney LaPlante" showed-up in my Google news feed. I assume that's just because I'm a Spiritbox fan. Then a few hours later it showed-up (unsurprisingly) on YT, so I gave it a listen. You guys are fucking AWESOME. I then went down a YT 'rabbit hole' with your music.
Come to Dallas, please!
I had no idea I needed this song in my life. This song is the Hero we desperately need but don't deserve
Courtney is doing some seriously great things in Metal right now. Good job to the Guys and Gals of Make Them Suffer and Spiritbox!
Make Them Suffer and Spiritbox. Literally two of my favourites. Never clicked so fast and was not disappointed.
Been listening since “Neverbloom” days. I don’t know what it is, but this is the one band that has evolved with my musical tastes over the years and I’m still jamming their entire discography to this day
This is easily the best song I’ve heard this year. I don’t know why it has taken me well over 100 listens to post this, but here it is!
I have never been so hyped about a collab before lol
Closest thing to musical perfection for me.
I'm watching Lomachenko walk out and this song fits perfectly!
It’s really good, but does anyone else wish that Courtney had done the chorus at one point in there?
that would've been cool! the song still slaps tho
i wish she was in it a bit more maybe even in the breakdown woulda been a cool contrast but yes its an awesome track none the less
So true 😞
Ya I was hoping to, next time lol
It would have been cool to feature both her cleans and screams, but either way she killed it with this one.
Been waiting for this the whole day, and it did not disappoint. Good shit.
Make Them Suffer and Courtney LaPlante, THANK YOU!
I’m at loss for words... didn’t expect to come here and be this blown away. Both the music and videoclip.
I love the key change in the chorus. Very advanced
Ooo this is gonna be my first time checking out this band
Edit: Bruv I've been missing out!!!!
You have been lol,my fav is Widower check it out 🙃🤘
Check out drown with me.
This guy on guitar is absloutely incredible. One of the best songs of 2021.
2:59 the Best part with the breakdown of final👌🏻
I love the modulation of the key/mode with the second iteration of the "chorus." It's complex and "authentic" sounding, or not intentionally contrived to just sound different. Her voice is just powerful, too.
HOLY FUCK!!!! Compete and total Goose Bumps all over as soon as I heard Courtney
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Got a new Fan THATS for sure!
Booka is killing it. Awesome!
I love how you can hear Sean forcing you to "pay for Dioooooooor" in the last line of the song.
