DROP A LIKE FAM! Finally ❤️
This band's discography is about 10 years old. They are one of the main search results for djent as they pioneered it alongside Animals as Leaders and Meshuggah. Each album explores more depths into what metal can be. Altered State is the album before Polaris which had a different vocalist for that one album only. Many people see that album as being the most powerful and coherent album to date.
KING- TesseractT
Just wondering… why did you not react to utopia off this album? It’s my favorite track and I was just wondering. But I LOVE that you did all of altered state. Thank you for appreciating that sexy saxophone too ❤️
“Concealing Fate” and “Of Matter”. Drew, this is important.
It is VERY IMPORTANT
Very important
I concur
Utopia, Tourniquet, April, all of Altered State, JUNO, and dare I say... Juno, and maybe Juno.
I love that every bit of their discography is worth going back to and listening. My personal Favorite band of all time.
Smile > Juno tbh
when i started getting into them and just listening to them on shuffle, i didnt rlly fw them as much but when i went through their entire discography, i loved them, same thing with northlane too
Tesseract - Nocturne
It’s the song that really propelled them into being one of my favorite bands.
TesseracT has some of the best production quality of any band in the scene. Literally every member is a sound engineer.
It's mostly Acle and Dan
Been waiting for this one, haven’t even watched yet but I know you’ll love them. I reckon you should do the whole of Concealing fate. Six songs, 28 minutes, they come together as one song and it’s a musical masterpiece from start to finish.
TESSERACT - Of Matter (Live at Sphere Studios), it cant be mentioned enough!
I don't know a lot of TesseracT, but I've been obsessing over Juno and King lately.
Concealing Fate needs to happen, BUT you must do Of Mind first, both songs Nocturne and Exile
King as well!!
There will never be an album like Altered State for me, never... ♥️
its Aria AGREED. Easily my favorite album of all time!
Haha I'm blushing from all the shout outs, but it's our job to point you to the good stuff 😅
They formed mid 2000s and had various demos, but their debut lp One came out in 2011 and was instantly influential across prog and metalcore. It had a lot more harsh vocals and slam too.
Just glad you're enjoying the musical journey man!
I felt like I was retired from making any more suggestions but dammit I just know you'll love VOLA - Head Mounted Sideways. It dropped last week and has a blend of these djenty bands, but also a strong hit of that OSI - Radiologue electronic vibe.
Lament, Nascent, Concealing fate, Nocturne, singularity, Seven Names, King, Juno, and especially Smile. Smile is a must!
Daniel Tompkins has been my favorite vocalist since I first heard him and has done numerous projects that are all amazing
Tesseract suggestions :
Juno (it's the best song from their newest album.)
Eden (their best song ever imo. So dynamic. So powerful. 10/10 riffage. So emotional, so atmospheric)
Seven Names
April
Constructive criticism (because I want you to succeed):
Invest in a mic boom arm so you can keep the mic closer to your face.
Get a pop filter to counteract the mic being closer.
Change the microphone settings. Whenever you talk it quiets the music, which kills the flow. Balance it so we can hear you talking over the music without it getting quieter.
More Meshuggah pls.
Thank you!
Will take on board my man
If you want to do tesseract properly, do the live in studio concealing fate , all parts!!
Tesseract - Of Matter live in Studio
The Of Matter trilogy of songs is a genuine masterpiece
Of Matter....14 minutes of pure bliss.
Finally, glad you liked them! King, Juno, Survival, Utopia, Conceiling Fate Part 1 and 2, and Eden 2.0 should keep you busy for a while. Their video performing the first part of their album Altered State in studio with their previous vocalist would be a good place to continue! Tesseract - Of Matter (Live at Sphere Studios) or something is the title of the video. Its a long one but concidering you've done several 15-20min songs already that shouldnt be a problem :)
Concealing Fate parts 1-6 live in the studio
According to wiki, they started out in 2003, funnily enough :D
Their first EP came out in 2010 though, same time Periphery debuted - the djent/prog metal scene has these connections all across the board, another "brother" group to check out would be Monuments, one of whose guitarists (John Browne, another beast of a player) played in the same band (called Fellsilent) with Acle Kahney, the guitarist, main songwriter and mixing genius of Tesseract.
These three bands are among the favourites of mine, I think the three guitarists - Acle, Misha, John - were absolutely essential in creating the modern djent sound (apart from early pioneers and influences like Sikth and Meshuggah of course), but IMO they were the ones who made it successful and mainstream.
They all have their own home studios where they record, mix and master everything themselves, which is part of the reason why their sound is so distinctive and perfected - starting off there were no record companies to bug them with release dates, radio singles and generally no one telling them what to do, so they remained original and fresh.
Periphery is the crazy one, going high as the heavens and down to hell in the same song three times at least, a vocalist who can do anything he wants and still makes it sound good, also catchy as anything in pop, full of hooks and melodies to sing along to. Bunch of metalcore influence here. Anything from PII (2012), PIV (2019) or Juggernaut Alpha/Omega (2015, double album) is great. From a passionate and curious music listener's point of view, they are my favourite. When I listen to them, they can make any other band seem redundant. They have come the furthest, improved the most IMO, you can follow their evolution across their albums, and what an evolution it is!
Monuments is the groovy one, fast and technical riffs, downpicking like a machine, with songs expertly crafted along main guitar themes and motifs. A bit more "metal" than Periphery, less catchy, but you can still catch even Michael Jackson influences in vocals here and there. From a guitarist's point of view, I like them the most and they are the most influential to my playing and songwriting. Awesome tunes. The Amanuensis (2014), in its entirety, is absolutely impeccable, has me headbanging every since I've first heard it.
Tesseract is the atmospheric one. Ridiculously tight rhythm section, thiccest bass grooves of the three, soaring vocals, full of emotion. You'll find something new in each of their albums, but One (2011) is the old-school djent stuff, and while looking back, somewhat maybe crude in execution, still a sign of what's to come nonetheless. Altered State (2013) is their absolute magnum opus IMHO, I don't think they or anyone else will come close to perfection and catharsis like that album delivers, make sure to listen to that in one sitting if you can, it's a journey (they had a different vocalist here, a master of harmonies, but no harsh vocals). Polaris (2015) is the accessible sound, retaining most elements, but with more digestible songs. Sonder (2018) is the amalgamation of all that's come before. Their vocalist is a role model of mine, honestly, Daniel Tompkins is world class. From a singer's point of view, I love them the most and I've learned the most from them as well.
These three bands are probably whom I'll recall in my later years, much like my father did with Rainbow, Deep Purple and Black Sabbath and countless others, as those I grew up with.
If anyone thinks that rock and metal are dead and just noise and screaming, or just stuck in the past without anything to show for nowadays, I just point to these three bands, who basically spearheaded a new subgenre of metal in the past ten years or so. This is our generation, and as much as it was a meme at first (000-000-00-0-0-0-000-000 riffs and TH0LL and other bullshit), I'm happy I'm here to witness it.
Anyway, long ass TED talk over, bring anything from these guys: you'll hear a banger and I'll be happy for you. :D
Concealing Fate, Nocturne and from latest album Sonder, Juno and Luminary
TesseracT - King
Do your self a big favour and us and do a reaction too Tesseract "of matter" , live ar sphere studios!
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH THIS IS MY FAVOURITE BAND ❤️❤️🔥 YESSS KEEP THIS GOING PLEASE. CONCEALING FATE!!!
Need to recommend This band after this.
"Monuments"
The main tune of hexes is actually from Meshuggah's Sum which is the awesome conclusion to catch 33
My favorite Tesseract song tying in with my favorite Meshuggah album? Now THAT is awesome.
Tesseract - Of Matter, live at sphere studios. its the opening 3 or 4 from a great cd.
Of Matter (Live at Sphere Studios), Nocturne (Live Video on Ice Stage), Concealing Fate ❤
Man, i can't believe no one suggested Katatonia yet, i think you would LOVE it, it has a really nice ambience, amazing riffs and amazing vocals too
i would suggest Takeover or The one you are looking for is not here, by them
Big fan of Katatonia man, listened a lot on stream!
@@DrewFortune97 oooh that explains a lot haha
still gotta catch your streams one day, love your reactions, found many great band because of them!
Most underrated band in the world! I saw them live in Cape Town, South Africa. They were INCREDIBLE. Tight as hell on every instrument, and the vocals sounded as crisp and perfect as well. I Love Teseeract !!!
Oh and hearing HEXES live with the crowd singing together gave me goosebumps and chills all over!!!
Lovin it mate! I first heard their demo in 2007, had April on loop for a week. Concealing fate has had the Periphery treatment over the years (the song was a demo track from waaay back and has evolved with a half dozen versions), all parts of which are gorgeous.
You should check from them, the Altered State "of Matter" full segment (3 songs in a row: Proxy, Retrospect and Resist), it's amazing!
As far as TesseracT is concerned, “Hexes” and “Of Matter” (live at Sphere Studios) is where it’s at. I wish you’d have watched the in studio performance of this though. So much emotion.
If you like this stuff, you definitely need to check out Animals As Leaders. "Tempting Time" or "CAFO" would be a good start.
YES!
Power Trip - Divine Apprehension
Power Trip - Hornet’s Nest
Power Trip - Crucifixation
For those of you interested Tesseract are doing a live show, ‘Portals’ streaming tomorrow around 6pm pre-show and 7pm show (U.K. time). It’s about £13 a ticket and will be a full on cinematic experience! Check it out on their RUclips channel.
Jay Postones their drummer couldn’t make the gig as it was covid during recording so the drummer is the guy from Monument and there’s a great video about this on RUclips on Jay Postones’ channel, posted a few days back.
The song on their teaser is King.
Concealing Fate next!!
Amon Amarth - War of the Gods
Amon Amarth - Free Will Sacrifice
Amon Amarth - Valhall Awaits Me
Concealing Fate is a must! Tesseract are sick.
Finally! Smile or Concealing Fate II now!
also:
✔️Sleep Token - Higher
⌛Tesseract - Smile
✔️Periphery - Reptile
⌛Thornhill - Coven
⌛Architects - Holy Hell
⌛Loathe - I let it in and it took everything
@@sludgeon Thornhill - Coven is basically a Mick Gordon song with vocals, he will fall in love instantly!
@@HaakonNerby yeah, I'm spamming this list since forever already, but this boy doesn't want to trust me much :P
@@sludgeon He'll get to them eventually, im sure he has a bunch of requests to work through xD
@@HaakonNerby I know, I know ;) I also just reminded myself of one solid hidden gem of a track so I'll leave it here as well:
NAÏVE - Transoceanic
Yeah!!! Tesseract is just one of those bands with the little extra. One of my all time favourite bands. I stumbled upon them back i 2007 when they did their first demo named Tesseract. It was mindbending at that time, and the songs there are still among my favourite songs. The demo can be found on youtube, check itt out.
Anyway; can’t wait for more Tesseract, they deserve alle the love and attention they can get.
My suggestions; Acceptance - Concealing Fate Pt. 1. This is their «national anthem» and was the song that got me into them in 2007. It was re-released as the first song on the album One. And it is a beyond great.
And if you were to do a full album react;
Altered State.
It is a M A S T E R P I E C E in the true sense of the word.
MAAAAN You seriously need to react to studio live version of Hexes and Phoenix!!!!
Nice!!!! You'll love these guys. Tesseract - Of Mind: Nocturne / Exile, and eventually you gotta do the entire Concealing Fate suite (6 sections).
... and Haken
From TesseracT, "Seven Names", "Juno", and "King"
Got the privilege to see them live w/ BTBAM and Astronoid. They’re as great in person as they are on the album. Great band 🤘🤘
That tour was a blast
I saw them in Pensacola! One of the best shows ever!
I’m crying because I was there for this tour in Portland and Tesseract had tech issues and didn’t play 😩
A song I haven't seen recommend much is "Lament" 🤘
NOCTURNE!
Best band from Milton Keynes since Enter Shikari.
"King" and "Smile/The Arrow" off their last album are awesome. They're also apparently doing a unique concert thing on the 12th.
Get back to Periphery too! There's so much there.
Do a double of Smile/Arrow, its basically one song and SO SICK. You CAN NOT do them separately.
Been around since 2003. Started out with Daniel on vocals and he is current vocalist. Had 2 others in between. Haven't seen them live in a few years but they were good live.
Opeth Demon of the Fall live at Roundhouse
Tesseract - Concealing Fate!!!!
I recommend checking out a band card dredg from California. Very creative band. They have a beautiful song called “of the room” they don’t tour much anymore but they are very creative. “Bug eyes” was probably their most played song on the radio.
Dude concealing fate part 1 and seven names in the Polaris album. Thanks for reacting bro!!!!!
Altered state is the best album by Tesseract imho. All good though. Also conceiving fate all 6 parts is a must.
A tool was formed to create a perfect circle to forge a tesseract in the heart of neo earth 2 saga city.
It's about that time, my dude. "G.O.A.T." and "O.D." - Polyphia
Gotta try garden in bones by periphery now
Nocturne by them please!
Broooooooo TESSERACT is gonna take over, insane grooves man, and some of the best vocals in prog
Anything from the Altered State album can't go too wrong. I'd recommend "Of Matter" studio version for the true album experience. The live studio version is incredible though as is "Of Mind". I'd also really think you'd appreciate Monuments. Very groovy band with similar elements/vibes to Periphery/Tesseract. All 3 groups are actually connected as the former vocalist of Monuments was in Periphery for a time & a guitarist from both Tesseract & Monuments were in a band together called Fellsilent. Monuments recommendation would be "Mirror Image" for not too confusing grooves haha. But they can go pretty hard & technical when they want to if you go digging into more of their stuff. If you read all that too as it was hella long maximum respect 😂👍
You’ve Got to review monuments
Do: I the creator
: Origen of escape
The main guitarist of tesseract and main guitarist from monuments formed a band together before splitting up and forming their own band
Concealing Fate Part 1, Utopia, Eden dude.
Massive love for this video. Finally Tesseract!
CONCEALING FATE PART 1 homie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You have to dive into Concealing Fate... All 6 songs...
The thing about acle and misha is that the two of them are considered the creators of modern "Djent" music, tesseract has been around the same amount of time as periphery, i like to consider them sister bands but each one has gone separated ways and created the 2 main branches of djent(one being the heavy and melodic and the other being the heavy but atmospheric) and the basis that a lot of bands in the genre from 2011 on would be inspired by.
You gotta see the live studio recording of Hexes. It's flawless
Recommendation: Juno , Acceptance, Concealing Fate (Part 1 &2)
So that artwork is for the special edition of Polaris that paired the album (the mutli-coloured rainbow tesseract), with the EP Errai (overgrown tesseract), where they took songs from Polaris and stripped them back to a semi-acoustic sound. It's 4 songs, run time of around 17 minutes, you should totally livestream the whole thing if you get the chance. Tesseract are quickly becoming an institution of English prog, cannot wait for lockdown to be over so I can see them live... and I'll totally look out for you in the moshpit, Drew!
Tesseract was another one on my list! So happy to see "Hexes" in your channel :P
Next choices from Tesseract (for me) would be: Luminary, King, Juno, Of Mind-Nocturne (different singer).
Personal favorites I'd love to see you react to: Leprous -"The Sky is Red" (drum playthrough by Baard Kolstad); VOLA - "Your mind is a helpless dreamer"; Soen - "Lotus".
I love this band so much. By the way, if you're interested, they are throwing a live show this saturday with proper stage and production. I can't wait.
FINALLY. The deeper you dig into this band, the more I think they're going to climb up your list. Daniel Tompkins is one of the best vocalists out there today. I love the fact that he's not a big screamer in a djent band. It just emphasizes the way you can combine melody with heavy 8-string guitars if you know what you're doing. They have an awesome online presence too. They're also one of the most active bands I've seen during the pandemic and do a ton of live streams.
My recommendation is go back and start from the beginning. Concealing Fate: live in studio
That breakdown in the end (I'm assuming it's a breakdown. Someone gimme a song structure dictionary, lol) goes hard.
When you start sayin' "If you know that I know that you know that I know that...." - Was that a reference to the classic "Friends" episode when Chandler and Monica pretend to not know that they know that everybody else knows that they are gettin jiggy with it in supposed secret?😁👍 That was the first ting I thought of anyhoo. Tesseract themselves have been a big force on the prog scene for a while now and yeah, Id also assume to brotha that you will dig 'em. More good stuff to delve into. Ill plug Animals as Leaders "CAFO" aswell again! What an explosive piece of music that is. Fits in too, with the Doom, technical djent you've been liking lately.
You should do a reaction to "Afterglow - Down"
I discovered this band 1 week ago and it's been going non-stop
Tesseract is AMAZING!!!
Ayyy I'm on that aloe drink kick too man, been downing that stuff for years
WOW, I was just listening to these songs. What a day!!!
Beneath my Skin / Mirror Image is a Must!
Mate, you should do some live reactions to full albuns! This would be amazing! So up to it
Tesseract has actually been around since 2006 maybe a little earlier.
TesseracT is one one the few bands that only has crazy good songs! Would love to see more
Love your stuff man. From a fellow Paddy I'd suggest Fortune Days by Glitch Mob
If you're ever trying to listen to something that is completely different from what you normally listen to, King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard is a great band to check out.
Deception and The Impossible will have you losing your head
Love TesseracT!
After Fellsilent (Akle's old band) split up, Tesseract and Monuments were formed, around 2009/2010. Both from the UK, and Monuments are well worth checking out too, a bit on the heavier side. I'd be very surprised if you didn't enjoy their tunes, if you enjoy Tesseract and based on your reactions to heavier stuff like Meshuggah as well
They are the best- IMHO
You seriously need to check out their first album one, it gives a completely different vibe to the newer stuff, heavy as fuck!
I see you want that 100k buddy. Lol, this the way to do it ;) ;)
King- Tesseract
😱😱😱 Aaaaaaaaa.
Dude... A little later in this same album is 'Utopia'. It is life.
Bro you have to check Of Matter! Thats from their masterpiece to this day. "Altered State". His vocalist Dan is amazing, but what they accomplished musically with Ashe O'Haraa, is a record very profound and Spiritual in my opinion.
Concealing ft pt.1 by Tesseract
TESSERACT YESSS!!
Finally!!! 👏 Now go check out the 5star solos from Steven Wilson’s Regret 9 and Ancestral! 😁
You should def try Nascent and Proxy
You should watch playthrough videos from the bassist Amos Williams...he is the personification of *sick*...
Im still here drew, plz do details matter at the roundhouse by Northlane and Views from the sun by Thornhill
Sounds like the band Riverside.
