Hey everyone, we just wanted to thank you so much for listening to our music! I know a lot of you have been getting this video as a suggestion, and your support means a lot to us. If you want to help us out, you can pick up our music here: earthsideband.com/shop/ (Vinyl, CDs, Bundles, Merch) earthside.bandcamp.com/ itunes.apple.com/album/id1044809003?ls=1&app=itunes open.spotify.com/artist/6mRDRKsNautYuxybddnvgg (Also, Amazon digital, Google Play, and all streaming platforms) Much love, Frank, Jamie, Ben, Ryan
And I just wanted to thank you for making this wonderful music, so we could listen. :) I hope you people will make a great success with this album. This is how YT suggestions should work, BTW. :)
What kind of sorcery is this? What did you guys do? This came up as a recommendation out of nowhere for me. This is the best surprise I've had in a very long time! Thank you for creating this!
Really, that's what I was going to say when I scrolled down to comment! By some chance I clicked on this on my home page. Never heard about them before, but I've been listening to Leprous so I guess the recommendation is based on that? If any of you haven't heard Leprous. Listen to Coal (the full album). Maybe a bit more heavy/progressive than this, but still. One of my brother's greatest finds.
Ok, i NEED to say this.... This is BY FAR the best "random" music i have EVER heard in the last what? 3 or 4 years? I was listening to Haken's Affinity album and this just came in the sequence. I'm SO HAPPY that youtube gave me this. Please, DON'T YOU GUYS EVER stop making music. This is a FUCKING MASTERPIECE 12/10. Eargasms AT FULL POWER!!! P.S.: The track "Crater" is just OUT OF THIS WORLD. GEEEEEZZZZZ
This album doesn't age, it's as breathtaking today as it was when I stumbled upon it roughly 4 years ago. Everyone associated with this, you're all legends!
I absolutely agree; I have heard this whole album 100x over and over. However, I would LOVE to get a new album. I feel that we are overdue. I am not ungrateful for the masterpiece that we have already been gifted. But I would love to experience a continuation of this glory.
+macaron3141592653 There is no other way we could have done it! I'm glad you appreciate this. Jamie spent 4 years orchestrating this himself, starting it at Yale university where he was honing his craft. We are all so proud of Jamie for creating this. We care about having "life" in our music and by collaborating with other musicians instead of midi, we can gain more of that life in a timeless way.
7 years have passed since the day this fantastic album was published. And this album is still as amazing as the first time I heard it. Always giving me a lot of shivers, and a high sound quality. I'm looking forward to the release of the new album... Thank you very much for the effort, time and affection that you had to show this work of art to the world.
to all earthside members I must say this is one hell of a masterpiece. I've been waiting for this level of music for sometime and you definitely delivered!! good job you guys!!👍
The hole left because they are still on hiatus? Or because you were disappointed with their later releases? Two very different holes. Credit to this band, but that PT hole can be filled by Steven Wilsons solo work, I promise. ;) I almost am completely at peace with their 6 years of inactivity. Stevens solo work is really out of this world
PT was never this hard. Agree. Also listen to TRANSATLANTIC. It is a supergroup made of several dudes from DT, PT, Marrillion etc... AMAZING. bUT i STILL love this band SOOOOOO much. Glad I saw them live a few weeks ago. Look for my Videos on YT. The sound sucks due to the venue but they are amazing
Probably the best progressive metal album I've ever heard. Still goes hard even 6 years ago when I heard it. I came as a sevendust fan because Lajon was in mob mentality but grew to appreciate the other songs on this album. What a cinematic journey this record is.
Martin Karas Like Gojira or Tool? Dark Prog Metal? I got you! Try The Ocean. I would start with the albums Heliocentric, and Anthropocentric. Also, you might like Karnivool. The Contortionist is a deathcore prog band...one of my favorite bands. And if you havnt already, try Tesseract, and Skyharbor.
@@EarthsideBand ok, i'm asking myself how i say this. you guys opened a new door for all of us and we are loving it. the new will never wear off of this. i'm a musician and i can't even pull myself away from your music so you know what that means " i have to learn it ". you have the stuff floyd and zepplin are made of and please never stop because if you do you will be denying a whole world of your talent !!! rock on my brothers, ROCK-ON!!!!
Dread Naught what about a live version of Mob Mentality being played inside a cave in the middle of a rain forest a night with a full orchestra; and you can just sit there listening to it, while the Milky Way spins like vinyl above you, and the endless emerald green forest spreads to infinity at your feet
Someone sent me the link to this in 2016 in an attempt to rekindle my waning interest in metal. I bookmarked it and slept on it. Took a listen today and discovered that not only is it fantastically melodic and diverse, but parts of it were produced in my hometown. The regret is real. I haven't enjoyed a new metal band this much since my first listen to "Still Life" decades ago.
I've let RUclips autoplay albums for hours, but fuck, 8 minutes into this one I get out of bed to see who is tickling my brain. Fucking awesome. Love & respect.
Omigosh this is amazing. I discovered this while working on a college paper of all things and I'd be lying if I said it didn't help me focus. Great fucking music, guys.
I found this back in high-school, when it came out. Listening to it again after a couple years, and I'm still blown away. This is still a masterpiece 5 years later. And will be forever. The fact that you guys are so underrated blows my mind
When you type "Dream Theater" to listen a bit of prog metal from your childhood/adolescence from the first 2000's decade, and find something better by accident. This blew my mind!
Very sick album I stumbled across the RUclips suggestions while trying to find some music to listen to while raiding in WoW. Sharing with my other prog nerds.
Stumbled across this album about an hour ago, it is still paused at 12:52 as I am writing this. This is absolutely stellar! Why nobody has pointed me in this direction before baffles me. It is paused because I went over the the Earthside website and ordered the album, Now I am contemplating whether or not to continue listening or wait for the physical copy and have that first listen experience the old fashioned way, while checking out the booklet.
So, let me see if I understand correctly. You create a unique genius top notch production quality album that feels like a real life experience, with music that can be felt with every sense... and then come and share it freely with us just like that? ........You guys are absolute LEGENDS.
I just want to say I appreciate this music and all the effort that was put into it. I've been listening to this every day since I found the album. The singers that were chosen, the arrangements, the notation, the tones, the soundscapes, the recording, the mix, this whole album is so well produced. I have great and deep gratitude for the respect you guys have for music. I feel like it's very hard to find music these days that is so well cared for that it creates a huge amount of emotion and energy. P.S. I love the term "Cinematic Rock" totally on point with that.
Not necessarily music wise, but listening to this album for the first time today had me feeling the same as the first time I listened to VOLA's Witness album the first time. Greatness from front to back.
I just found this by accident on one of my "lets check out albums and bands I've never heard, related to other things I like" sprees. FUCK. ME. THIS. IS. AMAZING!
Alright. It better be good. The people at my favorite TOOL band group sent me. I'm a natural talent drummer. Well here I an enjoying it already! Day~Yum!
+DannyStatuz I think this album took something like 6 years to make, what with the scattered musicians all over the globe. It might be another while. Although, I hope not that long!
These guys should definitely make another album. This is a great album overall. Really like their sound. Very clean and smooth, but chunky at times as well. Love it.
+Bill Hicks I was suggesting music. perhaps you can still find one thing you like without being a pompous douche? no one cares if you're bored. if you can't even explain yourself in the simplest form. what good are you? at least have the balls to develope criticism with reasoning. I'm bored, is a fucking waste of your time.
I'd love to get the FLAC files for this album. It is so well mixed and mastered . . its a treat to be able to discern what each player is playing. Not to mention, this is such a great album. It is so well thought out and has a great feel to it . . hooked on this for days now.
I was advised to seek this out by someone who knew i liked progressive music, and i'm so glad I did. This is one of the most impressive debuts i've ever heard. The level of maturity in the songwriting is the thing that strikes me the most. There are no wrong turns. I can't wait for whatever you guys do next.
Hi guys, after listening to this album a couple times already, I'm stunned and wondering how the hell can you make something like this come to life. Seriously though, what is your songwriting process?
Hey! Thanks very much for the kind words. The songwriting process is mostly a mix of jamming together organically in practice (these tend to more often become the instrumental songs, although the title track is an exception), and writing independently (for instance Jamie wrote "Mob Mentality," Ben wrote "Crater," and Frank wrote "Contemplation of the Beautiful." That's the basic idea, but the process is unique in many ways to the demands of any given song. If you're interested, feel free to check out the numerous song-spotlight videos we made on the creation and recording of each track. You can find them all on this channel. Cheers! Earthside
same thing here, if I believe their FB page, they had a lot of traffic these last few days. Could it be that they are making their breakthrough? It's all I wish them ! :)
Hi can anyone help me out please? Unfortunately, I can't find this album in a form that I can administer intravenously. Can I attach a cannula straight from the PC to stream it directly into my body, or does it need to be diluted first so I don't overdose? Also, does it have any permanent effects on the brain? My friend said after he tried it, it was so strong it made him go insane and then cured him. Is this true or just a myth? Please help.
Umm idk I've heard some stories on how people have tried IV but it never ended well. It's always best to dilute it until you build a tolerance (this ain't no Dream Theater s***) but everyone is different. About the going insane part: most likely suffering a moderate episode of mania (a period of great excitement, euphoria, delusions, and overactivity) which resolves over time. This is just from speculation and personal experience with Earthside.
James Cornett You should try it man. Got an audio output cable grafted into my brain. Turned up the volume on this, and became a God. 10/10 would reach posthuman transcendence again.
let me know if you need it. I can burn you a copy. Saw them live a few weeks ago. Amazing. Look for my videos. The venue sucked. Just need your address and I'll send you a copy. Yes the album is out on CD
Hey dude! Thanks very much for the kind words! The CD and vinyl are available through our website below and you can snag an FLAC download through our bandcamp right here: earthside.bandcamp.com/album/a-dream-in-static Happy listening :)
This is so ground breaking I thought the album was pretty recent. I can hardly remember reading the name of the band before today. RUclips sucks at recommending music according to the things I indicate I like
+huvostyle I'm sorry, but you're severely uneducated. all music more or less sounds like some form of either European classical, South American, Asian, or African music, or else a combination. the industry has had almost no hand in how music sounds, just what sounds get popular. hardcore punk and extreme metal come from punk rock and heavy metal, come from dub and hard rock, from reggae and rock n roll, from ska, rnb and blues, from soul and jazz, from gospel, swing and big band, from African and neoclassical, and so forth. and all of it is one and the same; music. just because this ambient prog metal band has a symphony orchestra on tracks doesn't mean all forms of rock sound like classical music. aggressive and angry music has been around since classical times. when Chuck Berry and Jerry Lee Lewis started making music, it was the most aggressive and abrasive sounding stuff at the time. music has only ever evolved, and continues to daily. but modern (80s to now) punk and metal are not the first types of music to embrace dissonant or discordant sounds. to insinuate that these genuine movements in musical history were fabricated by "the industry" is incredibly ignorant. even awful overproduction and autotune were not invented by the industry, they were just little musical trends that happened to get big and everyone started doing them. the industry helped today's easy-to-make pop music get popular, but they've had this formula since before the Beatles. ever since big record labels were stealing black artists' music and repurposing it for a white audience they've been dumbing down music and packaging it into a nice little sellable box. it has also been breeding artists that naturally do this, even unknowingly and before they are part of a label or 'the industry,' just because that's the way it's been for so long. I suggest a bit of research before making such sweeping, uninformed statements. TL;DR - chiggity check yoself before ya wreck yoself
Im open to learn everything, and i appreciate your information. What you say make really sense, i just don't study this... Here in BR we don't have this education, everything i know i learn by my count . Thnaks man!
kakashi66132 You don't have to know every bit of music history to appreciate a song/album, some people just like things for what they and you don't get to be a critic of others for taking that approach and even though its different to yours

I am amazed at how great your music is!!!!! Love it!!!!!
Honestly, RUclips throws me in the best of directions sometimes I swear.
"Hey, look at this cool random album."
"Okay, sure."
"Holy shieeettt."
Totally agree. Their recommended choices are on point!
+Ashton Conley It did that for me with this album, also with For Giants- "You are the Universe" and Widek-Journey to the stars. They all blew me away!
YUP , I HAVE BEEN TURNED ON TO ALOT OF FIRST TIME FINDS THAT I LUV .
Really, that's what I was going to say when I scrolled down to comment! By some chance I clicked on this on my home page.

This is a FUCKING MASTERPIECE 12/10. Eargasms AT FULL POWER!!!

I was listening to Affinity, too. Do you like the album?
+Angelo massimo everyone is here because of haken looks like! lmao. tesseract, haken and this.
I absolutely love Haken, but I was brought here by Katatonia's The Great Cold Distance. :)
And yes, this is at least the discovery of the month!
I love haken and katatonia but leprous actually brought me here haha.
I was brought here by for giants!
This album doesn't age, it's as breathtaking today as it was when I stumbled upon it roughly 4 years ago. Everyone associated with this, you're all legends!
Completely agree
I absolutely agree; I have heard this whole album 100x over and over. However, I would LOVE to get a new album. I feel that we are overdue. I am not ungrateful for the masterpiece that we have already been gifted. But I would love to experience a continuation of this glory.
@@turbodog182Well you're in for a treat because they dropped a second album last November, and it's a goddamn masterpiece
i actually have no idea how i have missed this album for five whole years. Incredible and just what i needed for this prison of a house
you are free my friend
no house contains thyself
I missed it for five years and a month 🤣
I completely agree; and I, too, am in prison in my home with a nutcase roommate.
Sucks for you then.
@@camilleleanne3757 better than being alone....unless that's your natural state.
Found this by accident. Stayed by choice.
+Nessa Nevermore me right now :D
pareil mademoiselle !
Pretty much my experience here
same fam
Found weed on accident, smoked it by choice.
Thanks random clicks.
lol me too
this
same lol
so i'm not alone xd
well... that escalated quickly
way to use a real orchestra for mob mentality, I'm sick of hearing cheap keyboards humming in the background of like every song. Absolutely stunning

+Earthside omg u replied to my comment, that's never happened to me b4
but anyway that sounds incredible, wish you guys the best in the future
+macaron3141592653 That's because they are real down to earth guys and awesome musicians!
+Earthside awesome
+Earthside I don't know if it was Daniel's idea to do that F5 in A Dream in Static, but it was perfect. This entire album is absolutely amazing.
7 years have passed since the day this fantastic album was published. And this album is still as amazing as the first time I heard it. Always giving me a lot of shivers, and a high sound quality. I'm looking forward to the release of the new album... Thank you very much for the effort, time and affection that you had to show this work of art to the world.
The whole album is a masterpiece, but everytime i hear Crater i really feel like this is one of the best songs ever created by humanity.
And its incredible how crater being good at it is, it becomes even better in the album, one of the better experiences with music in my life
Oh yes. Strid is a master of his craft. I can’t get enough of that song.
So true, Crater is insane
"ever created by humanity"
Humanity creates nothing; it is just a vessel for Divine imagination - William Blake!
i just randomly clicked on this album because i wanted to find some new music and fuck me this is fucking good im in love!!!!!
Leon Taylor i missclicked xD
Filipe Simplicio misclick - insta flash
Same here brah
Dude I did the same thing and accomplished the same feeling!
yeah it's great :D
5 am - Ok let's take a look at this
6 am - That was a masterpiece.
just lived that moment today...what a great piece of music.
can't stop sleeping awake,
hear buckethead man that alien will change your life
You just have to get through the >200 albums ^^
go to work already! lol
Wait; that's a debut album?
... Incredible. Keep on going, guys, that's the right way.
I'm never happier than when a band shares their whole album with pride, and I bought this the same day I listened. Still listening in 2020.
same here 2020
Hell yeah dude. LOVE this album from top to bottom. Something about it is so unique.
Exactly. While, on the other hand, after Napster, I went out of my way to never buy another Metallica album ever again.
2020
Yeah this album has been in my car ever since then, it's just a classic
40 seconds in and I already know this finna be hot biscuits!
Seriously dude! So much rhythmically im getting from this as a drummer. Never even heard of this band this shit is solid
I had a shock, it is amazing .... love at first listen.
shut up and give my "exodus" dammit :P
Same here!
Same here haha
Shokran Band you guys are fucking killer yourselves: respect.
Respect out to you guys
I try to run away from prog, but prog finds me.
Like a demons whisper in our ear. We can't help but feel it's tickle in our no no squares
E quando il sound ti prende non si puo lasciarlo ormai!
Why would you run away from Prog though? 😁
"Just when I thought I was out...they pull me back in."
@@divinefallfromgrace just drama. People who are passioned about each other love to make drama.
to all earthside members I must say this is one hell of a masterpiece. I've been waiting for this level of music for sometime and you definitely delivered!! good job you guys!!👍
seconded.
RUclips has been recommending this for years and I have only just heard it now. What is wrong with me?
Joseph Bastidas same here. I clicked on it one day just to get it out of my recommendation but I’m glad I found it.
Where should I start? 😝
I think I found the glue to repair the hole in my heart left by Porcupine Tree. That glue is called Earthside.
The hole left because they are still on hiatus? Or because you were disappointed with their later releases? Two very different holes. Credit to this band, but that PT hole can be filled by Steven Wilsons solo work, I promise. ;) I almost am completely at peace with their 6 years of inactivity. Stevens solo work is really out of this world
Try out some Opeth
Totally agree. Steven's solo stuff is alright but there isn't much like their group music.
PT was never this hard. Agree. Also listen to TRANSATLANTIC. It is a supergroup made of several dudes from DT, PT, Marrillion etc... AMAZING. bUT i STILL love this band SOOOOOO much. Glad I saw them live a few weeks ago. Look for my Videos on YT. The sound sucks due to the venue but they are amazing
i think Steven Wilson 2nd album "Grace For Drowning" its one of the best albums in prog music, and also try "disperse", great band from poland ;)
HOLY SHIT! Absolutely incredible work here. The most unique sound i've heard in a while. beautiful...
Check out Riverside.
THis is so amazing that I'm actually in denial about this being a debut album. YOu guys are gonna become an underground sensation, calling it now.
+Bryce Bruder They already are an underground sensation, this will elevate them to the next level ;)
Probably the best progressive metal album I've ever heard. Still goes hard even 6 years ago when I heard it. I came as a sevendust fan because Lajon was in mob mentality but grew to appreciate the other songs on this album. What a cinematic journey this record is.
Unbelievably special album. That note at 20:33!! Outrageous behaviour!
listening to new gojira brought this up in the suggested vids... very cool. reminds me of anubis gate
Wow, Angelmaker vid brought me....worlds apart, lol. Love it though.
you seem like a person who knows music, could you please suggest me some heavy, dark prog bands similar to gojira or tool? Thanks :)
hmm... Andromeda is a band i like. maybe check out some Devin Townsend too..
Martin Karas
Like Gojira or Tool? Dark Prog Metal? I got you!
Try The Ocean. I would start with the albums Heliocentric, and Anthropocentric.
Also, you might like Karnivool.
The Contortionist is a deathcore prog band...one of my favorite bands.
And if you havnt already, try Tesseract, and Skyharbor.
+Martin Karas Vildhjarta
Sounds as if Katatonia and If These Trees Could Talk had a lovechild and hired Karnivool as the babysitter.
+Jibberwhistle Looked up If these treees could talk. Goddamn man, its the most beautiful thing i've ever heard!
RUclips actually knows what i want to listen to right now!
Machine learning at work!
same here!!!
fuck yeaaaaaah and this start to scare me
... and better than my head!
Yes its al technology
Jesus Christ this album is some of the most AMAZING music I’ve heard in a long long time!
Whoah man it is
first time listening... debut album ?? wow.....
Some of the drum tones remind me of Gavin Harrison's. Sensing the Porcupine Tree influence here and there, love it!
After I finished listening to this masterpiece, I applauded my screen. This is pure art. Thank you for doing this!
Wow thank you for such a kind comment. We're glad our music resonated with you in such a way!
this honestly reminds me of Misha Mansoor's earlier projects, Bulb
Specifically one of his tracks, Absolomb
@@EarthsideBand ok, i'm asking myself how i say this. you guys opened a new door for all of us and we are loving it. the new will never wear off of this. i'm a musician and i can't even pull myself away from your music so you know what that means " i have to learn it ". you have the stuff floyd and zepplin are made of and please never stop because if you do you will be denying a whole world of your talent !!! rock on my brothers, ROCK-ON!!!!
Man, if it were possible to listen to this on the edge of a cave with the natural acoustics, that'd be insane.
What a turn on!!!
+sarah marie Isn't it! I could only dream.
Dread Naught what about a live version of Mob Mentality being played inside a cave in the middle of a rain forest a night with a full orchestra; and you can just sit there listening to it, while the Milky Way spins like vinyl above you, and the endless emerald green forest spreads to infinity at your feet
Connor McDermott Even though I can't take bands with me but I'm going camping for sure now cause of you haha!
Would be a cool gig for sure if I had a million dollars I think that'd be how I spent it :P
What a brilliant album! I hear influences from all over metal and they don't replicate, they make it theirs. What a great find.
Someone sent me the link to this in 2016 in an attempt to rekindle my waning interest in metal. I bookmarked it and slept on it. Took a listen today and discovered that not only is it fantastically melodic and diverse, but parts of it were produced in my hometown. The regret is real. I haven't enjoyed a new metal band this much since my first listen to "Still Life" decades ago.
It’s very orchestrated.
This is by far one of the best albums i've heard
You've just created a monster
+Sebastián Barrantes seen them last night with soulfly and soilwork. 2nd show on the tour and they were pretty amazing
+Keith Feulner thinking of this music in context with soilwork just made it all make a little more sense to me.
+Keith Feulner Hey I was at that show! :D After I heard Earthside I definitely had to look this album up.
I've let RUclips autoplay albums for hours, but fuck, 8 minutes into this one I get out of bed to see who is tickling my brain.
Fucking awesome. Love & respect.
Omigosh this is amazing. I discovered this while working on a college paper of all things and I'd be lying if I said it didn't help me focus. Great fucking music, guys.
Same, made my math a lot easier somehow lol
I'm too focused on these angelic notes to pay attention to much else.

Persefone brought me here... I'm stayin'
You guys worked with Dan Tompkins.
So please join the Tesseract Polaris tour
for triple pleasure {Contortionist}.
By the way Magnificent Album.
I just found this by accident on one of my "lets check out albums and bands I've never heard, related to other things I like" sprees. FUCK. ME. THIS. IS. AMAZING!
Devin Townsend brought me here. Lajon Witherspoon piqued my interest. The incredible songs earned my love.
I thought I heard Lajon's voice.
Almost a year later, and I'm still listening and loving this masterpiece as the first day.
I think today too. I just discover them
Alright. It better be good. The people at my favorite TOOL band group sent me. I'm a natural talent drummer. Well here I an enjoying it already! Day~Yum!
A whole year. Wow that's a long time...
2021
I'm sitting here at work listening to this for the first time and I'm literally frozen in my seat with tears in my eyes. Absolutely wonderful.
i shutdown everything .just to be alone in darkened room with this amazing undefined music !!! Absolutely wonderful.
iM SURE YOUR BOSS WOULD BE GRATEFULL
@Marissa I am doing the same .. Discovered their music at work today.. And loving them
Just had to buy this. So, so good. Keep at it guys, we all really appreciate the effort.
that intro... it breaks my brain every time man!! and its get stronger the more i listened it.... never heard such a deep album....
so...when is your next album coming out?.... NEED MOAR
+DannyStatuz It took them several years to produce this i think you must be patient, unfortunately!
+DannyStatuz I think this album took something like 6 years to make, what with the scattered musicians all over the globe. It might be another while. Although, I hope not that long!
Apparently I listed to this before 7 years ago.
I just got it in RUclips recommendations again and was COMPLETELY blown away again.
Amazing.
welcome .. . . . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . we've been waiting for you.
Sorry.. . . . .
I’ve kept you waiting.
These guys should definitely make another album. This is a great album overall. Really like their sound. Very clean and smooth, but chunky at times as well. Love it.
46 seconds in and Im sold. This is absolutely wonderful, hope you guys tour through NC.
3 minutes in and i'm bored.
+Bill Hicks maybe complex audio isn't for you.
try Justin Berber or any new age trending tracks, because you won't find much repetition here.
( . Y . )
lol, why don't you try not to be a self righteous douchebag, music is completely subjective.
+Bill Hicks I was suggesting music.
perhaps you can still find one thing you like without being a pompous douche?
no one cares if you're bored.
if you can't even explain yourself in the simplest form.
what good are you?
at least have the balls to develope criticism with reasoning.
I'm bored, is a fucking waste of your time.
I'd love to get the FLAC files for this album. It is so well mixed and mastered . . its a treat to be able to discern what each player is playing.
Not to mention, this is such a great album. It is so well thought out and has a great feel to it . . hooked on this for days now.
Thank you Hasan! If you go to our bandcamp, you can purchase the album in FLAC! earthside.bandcamp.com/
I was advised to seek this out by someone who knew i liked progressive music, and i'm so glad I did. This is one of the most impressive debuts i've ever heard. The level of maturity in the songwriting is the thing that strikes me the most. There are no wrong turns. I can't wait for whatever you guys do next.
2022 still rocking!
One of those beautiful albums you listen to from start to finish
Hi guys, after listening to this album a couple times already, I'm stunned and wondering how the hell can you make something like this come to life. Seriously though, what is your songwriting process?
Hey! Thanks very much for the kind words. The songwriting process is mostly a mix of jamming together organically in practice (these tend to more often become the instrumental songs, although the title track is an exception), and writing independently (for instance Jamie wrote "Mob Mentality," Ben wrote "Crater," and Frank wrote "Contemplation of the Beautiful." That's the basic idea, but the process is unique in many ways to the demands of any given song. If you're interested, feel free to check out the numerous song-spotlight videos we made on the creation and recording of each track. You can find them all on this channel.
Cheers!
Earthside
I will definetely check them out, thank you!
this is masterpice!
Daniel Tompkins !
Recien en 2023 descubri esta banda, muy buena musica y un excelente album!
taba esuchando tesseract y me apareceiron ta padre
just discovered this band, it's totally awesome ! Love the contribution of the orchestra
Can't imagine the work behind all this
wow the best thing youtube has done for me in a while was recommend this video!! THANKS RUclips!!!
same thing here, if I believe their FB page, they had a lot of traffic these last few days. Could it be that they are making their breakthrough? It's all I wish them ! :)
I think RUclips is recommending this album to people listening to the new Gojira. I guess that helps a lot ^^
Rishloo for me
Very nice album!
Daniel Tompkins is a beast!
So The great cold distance really has a great influence in modern metal I guess 😉
In reference to Katatonia?
Yes, love me some Katatonia.
KATATONIA!
Absolutely yeah man!
Love katatonia
This is magical. It's almost like a dream.
Wow loving this record the high notes in the beautiful A Dream in Static just amazing
Terrific album. It would be great to have the lyrics of the songs :)
Hey! If you go to our bandcamp earthside.bandcamp.com/ and click on an individual song, there should be the lyrics there!
Thanks!
It really is!
I came here from... I don't remember, because this just blew my mind!
Hi can anyone help me out please? Unfortunately, I can't find this album in a form that I can administer intravenously. Can I attach a cannula straight from the PC to stream it directly into my body, or does it need to be diluted first so I don't overdose? Also, does it have any permanent effects on the brain? My friend said after he tried it, it was so strong it made him go insane and then cured him. Is this true or just a myth? Please help.
Umm idk I've heard some stories on how people have tried IV but it never ended well. It's always best to dilute it until you build a tolerance (this ain't no Dream Theater s***) but everyone is different.
About the going insane part: most likely suffering a moderate episode of mania (a period of great excitement, euphoria, delusions, and overactivity) which resolves over time. This is just from speculation and personal experience with Earthside.
A Cat Huh? I have never heard of such a thing.
James Cornett You should try it man. Got an audio output cable grafted into my brain. Turned up the volume on this, and became a God. 10/10 would reach posthuman transcendence again.
Who needs hard catnip when you have Earthside?
You are a cat. How are you able to use a computer? Better yet. How are you able to comprehend and type in English? I have so many questions.
Imagine one of these songs featuring Einar Sølberg or Claudio Sanchez. Man, that would be wicked.
Make that happen Earthside!
Anyone else listen to mob mentality like 100 times?
Earthside are awesome.
Try Long Distance Calling "the flood inside"
You will thank me 😊
Any chance this album will come out in CD form? Some of us aren't fancy yet, with the new-fangled technologies.
Hey there! Please visit our website earthsideband.com/shop/ for CDs, vinyl, and merch!
let me know if you need it. I can burn you a copy. Saw them live a few weeks ago. Amazing. Look for my videos. The venue sucked. Just need your address and I'll send you a copy. Yes the album is out on CD
Also, PLEASE look into buying this. These guys are simply too good to stick it to them
Just go to Amazon
Any chance you can look at the description
An incredible album. Need to get CD or Flac not MP3! The music's too good for MP3
Hey dude! Thanks very much for the kind words! The CD and vinyl are available through our website below and you can snag an FLAC download through our bandcamp right here: earthside.bandcamp.com/album/a-dream-in-static
Happy listening :)
Excellent work guys, Shared.
I came from Seventh Wonder (and technically, my mom) and this is majestic
This whole album is UNBELIEVABLE. Incredible melodies and musicianship ✊🏼
This is so ground breaking I thought the album was pretty recent. I can hardly remember reading the name of the band before today. RUclips sucks at recommending music according to the things I indicate I like
Any band that tours with leprous is not going to be shit thats for sure!
Fuck the singer sure does remind me of the transience singer... Anyone else get that vibe?
100% grass fed Organic METAL poetic
This is simply mind blowing! What a masterpiece.
I always loved Ashe's voice more with Tesseract's music, but I truly respect Daniel's talent. The dude has incredible range and overall power.
Wow..... woooow! ...Perfect👍
This is beyond human abilities to make such a masterpiece!!
The best musical exprience i've ever had in my life...
First time I hear about this band, and Naïve. Unlike so much of rock music, this is not music full of violence. I can listen to it while I am writing.
I agree. Really rock music sounds like classical music. The rest: only music industry.
let rage consume you
+huvostyle I'm sorry, but you're severely uneducated. all music more or less sounds like some form of either European classical, South American, Asian, or African music, or else a combination. the industry has had almost no hand in how music sounds, just what sounds get popular.
hardcore punk and extreme metal come from punk rock and heavy metal, come from
dub and hard rock, from reggae and rock n roll, from ska, rnb and blues, from soul and jazz, from gospel, swing and big band, from African and neoclassical, and so forth. and all of it is one and the same; music. just because this ambient prog metal band has a symphony orchestra on tracks doesn't mean all forms of rock sound like classical music.
aggressive and angry music has been around since classical times. when Chuck Berry and Jerry Lee Lewis started making music, it was the most aggressive and abrasive sounding stuff at the time. music has only ever evolved, and continues to daily. but modern (80s to now) punk and metal are not the first types of music to embrace dissonant or discordant sounds. to insinuate that these genuine movements in musical history were fabricated by "the industry" is incredibly ignorant. even awful overproduction and autotune were not invented by the industry, they were just little musical trends that happened to get big and everyone started doing them. the industry helped today's easy-to-make pop music get popular, but they've had this formula since before the Beatles. ever since big record labels were stealing black artists' music and repurposing it for a white audience they've been dumbing down music and packaging it into a nice little sellable box. it has also been breeding artists that naturally do this, even unknowingly and before they are part of a label or 'the industry,' just because that's the way it's been for so long. I suggest a bit of research before making such sweeping, uninformed statements.
TL;DR - chiggity check yoself before ya wreck yoself
Im open to learn everything, and i appreciate your information. What you say make really sense, i just don't study this... Here in BR we don't have this education, everything i know i learn by my count . Thnaks man!
kakashi66132 You don't have to know every bit of music history to appreciate a song/album, some people just like things for what they and you don't get to be a critic of others for taking that approach and even though its different to yours
BRAVO.
Pain of Salvation and Periphery have made a child!
What a nice surprise! I'm also glad that Lajon is involved \m/
Incredible album. Reminds me so much of Tesseract, but a bit lighter.
