    These guys are the same geniuses of their style as Amon Amarth. I'll be 35 in March, and I've been listening to them for really more than 15 years.When I listen to them, I understand that time has not just stopped, but it never existed. I feel like I did 15 or more years ago.

      Exactly bruh even Einstein knew he was just a stupid human blessed w an education knowledge to do mathematics and amazing women in his life that motivated him
      Time exists on a continuum
      There's even theories in mathematics string theory that parallel dimensions might exist
      We dont actually know for sure at the end of the day we're just stupid humans who know love created us 2+2=4 mathematics shows absolute truth and our history is real.
      There's no telling with science getting this advanced how much potential we have as humanity womanity mankind in the far future
      The main thing we gotta avoid? War. Technology is too great for war amen

    i love the idea that they had to get 2 vocalists to replace Christian XD

    • @robertstan298
      @robertstan298 10 лет назад +15

      And they sound even better, especially since they can overlap vocals, something that they can do live as well, just Alvestam could have never. Deal with it.

      Exactly! The new growls are very good imho, but the cleans.... especially live not as good. But they´ll improve.
      Btw., Robert, you can´t tell anybody what to do lol ;). Accept other opinions

    @Zofti 12 лет назад +1

    imo SS turned into a new level. Listen to these vocal harmonies never available live with only one singer. Moreover growls are deeper than ever and the new clean vocalist, he is technically unbeatable. I hear heaven and hell in his voice. It's like some sacral experiance to listen to Scar Symmetry now.

  • @Samus5164
    @Samus5164 14 лет назад +4

    Honestly, I love SS with both Christian and the new singer. This song's chorus is just beautifully written.

  • @metalhanded
    @metalhanded 13 лет назад

    Incapacity, Solar Dawn, Scar Symmetry, Torchbearer, Quest of Aidance, guest for Zonaria, Miseration, Syconaut, Angel Blake, Carnalized, Solution .45, The Few Against Many, Jarawynja, Nuclear Blast Allstars....Christian Alvestam has been in a few and IS in a few for sure. with a voice like that and all round talent like he has he can pretty much go up to any band and just say "Kick him out. I want in" or "You and you, quit. We're starting a new band." The dude makes good music!

  • @paulwall1981
    @paulwall1981 14 лет назад +3

    I love this band and this one of the best songs from the latest album. I am sad that Christian has left the band, but the new singers work really well and I hope they carry on what they started with DMDS. Thumbs up all round.

    I admit i was hit pretty hard with Christian's change over, i never hated it but it took me some time to get used to, this song still holds power to remind me of better times and ill always be thankful regardless of who's in the group.
    Keep making awesome music guys

  • @JuntexProductions
    @JuntexProductions 9 лет назад +13

    I feel like the production quality of their music videos went downhill as the went on, the older Scar Symmetry videos feel like actual professionally produced music videos, while their newer ones look like something I could have made. I'm not so sure what happened.

    • @JuntexProductions
      @JuntexProductions 9 лет назад

  • @tboi3000
    @tboi3000 14 лет назад

    for those of you that are wondering, an iconoclast is a person that destroys religious symbols.
    I think the clean vocalist fits the band more than the screamer. the screamer doesn't move at all/have any stage presence. but good effort, they're still new to the band so ill see what they do next!

  • @hessiankyojin

    i also think that christian was a very good singer, but those two give it all a little bit new fresh power. The Voices of those guys are incredible, harmonizing perfect.

  • @Shadowfiendization
    @Shadowfiendization 13 лет назад

    @WorldMechanical my point is as i said in previous comment, not all are willing to tour that's all, i mean my band Sorrow and suffering, we have a album out since december last year and we haven't toured yet. Mostly because some of us still have school to attend to and me for instance, i have my daughter to look after most of the time

    I dont know what it is about Sweden but apparently it is home to pretty much all my favorite metal bands, In Flames, Soilwork, Scar Symmetry, Amon Amarth, the only one not there is Children of Bodom but hey they are just next-door!

  • @VagrantShadow
    @VagrantShadow 13 лет назад +3

    @cothy86 If you look at Symmetric in Design and Holographic Universe there is a massive difference in vocal range. Give them time to grow. I like the new direction and adding of more elements into their music, I don't think Christian could pull it off. Christian is a great singer, but he wanted to head in a different direction and lets not forget he couldn't quite pull it off live and wanted to just be a studio band. The new dynamic works great. You can always listen to studio band Solution .45.

    This lineup kicks. I think they sound way heavier and better with these guys. The first singer, Christian, sounded like The Cookie Monster when he tried to growl. I still dig those cds also, just like this the most.

  • @ametryn
    @ametryn 13 лет назад

    @wackamastaz Christian was actually just a studio creation, just layers upon layers of vocals. OBVIOUSLY they purposefully chose two vocalists so that the band's sound didn't change too drastically, and they could make for a better live performance.

  • @barbarasmithh
    @barbarasmithh 14 лет назад

    This is the best video this far with the new singers, although, it's still not THE music video.
    The greatest thing I miss is the underlying concept. Every song and album from Scar Symmetry has it, "The Illusionist" and the "Morphogenesis" videos had it too, but in the ones from the new album, including this - I see none in them! A little girl walking away from home, meeting an obscure-looking priest guy?I'd say it has a deeper meaning if we could see what happens after they meet, but we don't.

    I agree with many posters below. The vocals are something new though, since I've been listening to these guys since their first album. I don't think it's a case of power in their voices, since they obviously have that. I think it's the presence. They just don't command the same presence that Christian did. Still, Dark Matter Dimensions was an awesome album, and I'm looking forward to see where it takes these guys.

    I first heard this band years ago from a compilation CD with the song 'the illusionist', I like that song and the album it's from.
    But which album is considered there best?
    I would love to find a band that mixes opeths 'ghost reveries' with Alice in chains 'dirt' album or at least the vocals.

    • @rossamccann72

    I wasn't a huge fan of that album although I listen to it once in a while.
    My problem with the other two albums, holographic and the one before that one, is that the first half is great, while the second half is not so great.
    When I first heard Dark Matter Dimensions I was shocked how awesome it was. I was so happy that this band really fleshed out and had a solid album.

  • @Ripjaw57
    @Ripjaw57 14 лет назад

    I bet if this was a new band...formed not from scar symmetry fragments....but new lineup altogether people would be groping on this album- "tis is f*cking guud"..... people just waste their time comparing to their old albums....personally it's an excellent album, everything I look for in melo-death these guys got it

  • @prubare
    @prubare 14 лет назад

    @Soilworker091 Im going to wait for the next CD until I pass judgment. I mean common, Dark Matter Dimension is pretty amazing considering Holographic Universe came out less than a year before that. Usually it takes 2 to 3 years before a band release new albums.

  • @Shadowfiendization
    @Shadowfiendization 13 лет назад

    @WorldMechanical Well, Have you've noticed that christian has other bands/projects that he could be working with right now? or even anyone else in s45 for that matter, i mean sure it is a bit strange yes. but there are many bands that are more studio bands not all bands are in for touring or any live show in particullar. For all we know s45 might just be on tour in sweden or any other places in europe. not all bands has to go USA, Asia and all exotic places now do they?
