    Triology just hits on a deeper level for myself. A couple years ago I admitted myself into a mental hospital for a few days because I ended up trying to hang myself in the shower. I couldn’t handle all the negative thoughts in my head and the way I was starting to look at life. Musically, the instrumentals are very aggressive and feels like a great direction for Silent planet, but it’s the landscape of the entire song and the way it goes from chaotic to ethereal back to insanity really pulls you in and lets you know you aren’t the only one stuck in this frame of mind from time to time. It’s an honest beast and I’m proud of Garrett for sharing the whole explanation of this particular song.

      Man, it’s tough. I never heard Trilogy until this video, but I heard Erase Me beforehand, so I came into this bias, but then Trilogy BLEW ME AWAY. Made me almost forget how amazing Erase Me is, but then Erase Me came on again, and it made me realize it was the winner still, even though Trilogy was INSANE. Erase Me narrowly got that W

    Silent Planet - Trilogy is my vote. Garrett’s lyricism is absolutely phenomenal. His implementation of footnotes in his lyrics proves how much he truly cares about the message of the song since he does so much research.

    • @dawgietv
      @dawgietv 4 года назад +3

      He actually didn't do this for Trilogy, but for every other song he does! Correct me if I'm wrong, but Trilogy was written in one shot, when Garrett admitted himself into a mental hospital during tour. So everything was Garrett for Trilogy. Regardless the implementation of footnotes is amazing and I love Garrett!

  • @sethsowalskie6499
    @sethsowalskie6499 4 года назад +55

    My vote goes to Trilogy, though Erase Me was phenomenal too. I just love both the aggressive/atmospheric sound of Trilogy and the lyrics, especially the cry for hope and unity in a divided world at the end. Knowing the story behind the lyrics and that Garrett wrote them in one sitting with everything he had going on makes the song even more powerful. Erase Me was way more emotional than I was expecting though. Loved both songs.

    I'm going with Make Them Suffer here. I will say that the Silent Planet song is more creative and breaking the "rules" of song structure but "Erase Me" just brings out more emotions in me. Heavy throughout the song and then ending with that epic anthem-like ending. Damn!

    Silent Planet - Trilogy has my vote. I didn't really know who they were when I saw them live during the 10 Years of Constellations tour. I had forgotten to look them up and then saw people talking about Trilogy. Gave that a listen and oh man, they killed it. I didn't remember them being this heavy either during the concert but hell yeah man, this song has gotten me to dive further into their music. Still up for taking recommendations.

    Although I think "Drown With Me" was a better single, "Erase Me" had such a depth and emotions contained within it that set it apart from the former Make Them Suffer's single, and gave it something special. The contrast of the female vocals, the lead singer and the melodic atmosphere are all key components of MTS.
    Silent Planet's trilogy showed another side of the band and the heaviness they can display and the creativity they can express within their own work. Trilogy is a step-up of the band and is amazing as always.
    I am gonna vote for MTS because I am biased and love that band but that doesnt mean I dislike silent planet at all :)

    Just want to drop another comment. I really appreciate you guys (ABR) putting your fans first and releasing Guardians according to schedule, and not pushing back like so many are doing nowadays. Even though I’ve been streaming it on Apple Music since it’s been out, I purchased the album on top of all that (first album bought in 5 years). I know it’s probably not much in the grand scheme of things, but love y’all and keep up the awesome work. And keep coming back to Texas. We love our metal here.

    I have to be honest, I'm extremely biased but have to go with Silent Planet. I saw them live in Spokane on the Trilogy tour and it was only the second time that they had played Trilogy live. Part of my bias comes from the fact that I was able to talk with Garret before the show about Theology and Apologetics. I'm currently four classes away from my bachelor's in Apologetics and loved the fact that I could sit down and have such an enlightening and intellectual conversation with Garret.

Although I fully support both of these bands I would say Make Them Suffer wins this battle by eliciting emotion this genre gives 110% of the time. I think the clean vocals made this battle a tough feat, but Make Them Suffer just dragged the emotion out of me.

    I have to show you a lot of gratitude here for introducing me to these bands! August Burns Red delivers again!
    Silent Planet's breakdown literally made me flinch, especially between the screams and then the awesome clean vocals. Also love when you said he "delivered the sentence".
    Make Them Suffer... those drums sure did. And then the angelic clean vocals, oh my goodness.
    I'm gonna go with Make Them Suffer, because while both songs were amazing, I actually reflected on myself while listening to 'Erase Me' while I jammed out to the other. I'm sure you understand this as a fellow Christian, Jake, but the lines in the latter song "I'm not worth saving" made me reflect on our depravity and made me grateful for Christ's love and grace.

    Trilogy was amazing. It was my first time hearing it and I immediately added it to my playlist. With that being said, I have to give the W to Make Them Suffer. There’s perhaps a little bias here... and I’m okay with that. Their album worlds apart dropped around the same time I was going through a divorce and it absolutely helped me get through that rough patch. Especially the song Save Yourself. I’ve been eagerly waiting for new material from them. We got 27 awhile back followed by Hallowed Hearts and then Erase Me. The previous two songs are still amazing, but erase me is on an entirely different level. Every reaction video I watch we all get the same feeling... chills. I think that says it all. When music can make an entire audience get goosebumps from their creation they’ve done their job, and they’ve done it beautifully. Can’t wait for their album drop this June!
    Much love, Jake! I’ve seen you guys live 7 times now and have lyrics from composure tattooed on my chest. Guardians, as I expected, is amazing! Can’t wait to see you guys roll through the Philly area when everything gets back to normal. (I had tickets to the show you guys had with Killswitch too!)

    I really love this type of reactions and battles between bands, I think it's a great form to see different forms to create music from other bands. In this battle is too difficult who will be the winner, because you said it in the reaction video, Silent Planet have that agressive breakdown and it sounds so fucking cool. On the other hand, Make them Suffer has the great voice of Brooka Nile and it sounds so clean and perfect. But if I had to choose one, I really choose "Trilogy" from Silent Planet. I think it's something different of what they've done before and it's so agressive. It's a great song to headbanging.

    I've loved MTS Erase me from the first time I listened to it. I keep listening to it and it's every listen gives me goosebumps.

    Hey Jake! Glad to see you making videos in these trying times. As for the contest (not sure if it's still live) I'm going to cast my vote for Trilogy! One of my favorite bits lyrically is "Be still and human
    , Breathe in and be consumed..." Garrett has come back to this concept of being consumed many times. I actually was fortunate enough to have received a signed set-list that Garrett wrote a note for me on, where he writes "In a world that measures happiness by consumption, may you be utterly consumed by God's love." I have loved seeing him explore this concept of consumption throughout their songs and seeing it here again, the weaving through their work over time offers a depth of growth that others can join. Instrumentally, the song is set apart with its flow. The intro, while abrupt like Make Them Suffer's, was more cleanly pulled off, with those phenomenal off-beat snare hits and bass patterns from Alex on drums, which jumps to the cutting guitar distortion and back and forth between the two in a wonderful push and pull. Thomas's clean vocals definitely mesh cleanly with the spacey effect they have going on too. The transitions are cleaner in my opinion! Thanks for the content Jake, I was so fortunate to see one of your last shows before COVID rocked our world in Grand Rapids, MI. You guys put on a freaking show, didn't think you could get better! Each song feels like a story in your live music now, I'd never seen you guys play Invisible Enemy quite like you had that night. Defender was as much of a banger as I'd hoped too! Super hyped to eventually see Ties That Bind soon enough in concert. If you could check out Novelist's latest album or Impending Doom's The Sin and Doom Vol. II I'd be stoked! God Bless!

    Silent Planet wins my vote here. Make Them Suffer are phenomenal in every way, with more somber emotions and tone, but the thing that made me go with Silent Planet is the vocal talent. Sean from MTS is a phenomenal vocalist but seems to be very monotone to me. Garrett is out here shifting styles the whole song, giving us all different flavors of them. Also context plays a huge factor for me here, as Silent Planet wanted this song to cap off their Trilogy of albums, with a song about learning to be human again. Knowing that this is the end of a phase of this band and not a lead in to a new record just makes this feel more special

    Make them Suffer: “Erase me”
    I haven’t heard of them before but that song rocked my world. The double foot pedal drums, the piano and vocals, with a semi punk rock feel. Very nostalgic vibe for me and what helped me cross over from punk to metal back in the day

  • @michaelwagner6733

    First of all the idea of this series is so great! For me personally it is so hard to decide which band wins this battle because both songs are constantly on repeat in my playlist... technically I don´t think I could choose one, they both did their jobs flawless and perfect. So I´m gonne decide emotionally and for me Make them Suffer wins here... that song just touches me a little bit more and brings me close to tears every time because it describes the feelings and thoughts I had a while back perfectly.
    Continue doing what you do Jake, you are an amazing humble human being, I enjoyed talking to you after one of your concerts for a few seconds! Love and greetings from Germany!

    These two bands are breaking barriers in metal. Both MTS and SP show so much emotion and so much diverse structure in the songs which are not always so formulaic or rather overused riffs and patterns which we see in metalcore. I really like both of the songs, MTS is definitely showing an immense amount of work in this track, the piano, vocals, guitar work, drums and bass. It's so good, very well pieced together and I can't wait to see the future product. I'm going to give my vote Silent Planet, I've heard this track more than once and it always pulls me in because they blended everything together and weaved it so well together for all to stand out. Lyrically, musically and emotionally driven that feels so incredibly real.

    I've seen Silent Planet twice, one of those times they were supporting Make Them Suffer. I gotta say, nothing beats seeing SP live. Don't get me wrong, the energy MTS has is insane and the pit was fucking crazy but everytime I saw SP the emotion was almost overwhelming. As for the two songs, obviously I'm gonna have to go with Trilogy lol

    @rockstar3290 4 года назад +1

    Oh man why you gotta do this to me Jake? I keep hearing the Erase me ending in my head cause you played it last (memory bias) but I'll go with Silent Planet - Trilogy. Has Erra elements and great lyrics.
    This is great advertising for these bands. Love what you're doing for them man. Keep the videos coming!

    Can there be two winners? Its two different spectrums! They are both amazing in their own way. I love how silent planet is going heavier and I love how make them suffer is going with the more melodic, angelic route. Amazing. Just amazing.

    MTS for me, it's a really unique song that aswell shows variety and a new direction they can choose musically.
    Song was just beautiful
    But ofc the Silent Planet song was also a good all-rounder, but it didn't gave me chills haha

  • @brandonorozco8473
    @brandonorozco8473 4 года назад

    For me it was make them suffer, Trilogy was amazing but erase me gives me more of an emotional response and I’m a huge sucker for that when it comes to music, along with the angelic piano melody really goes well with the singers voice, both phenomenal bands. Great video Jake!
