I am a prisoner here
weave the synthetic when wrapping up my wrists
I don't truly dream when you're near
loosen aesthetics remain asphyxiated on the paint peeling back from the door
now I can see you for what you are
she drew the shape on the floor
now I can see the full spectrum
how can I feel existential dread, it's my fear
I am eternal
hurt me with your mouth make me settle down
whispering the words on the wind as they blow
heartbeat in the nest, pressure on my chest where did all the signs of the dissonant go
and when they tell me they pray for me and they lack a certain empathy the enemy hits me so low
so the circles on the ground make me settle down
hurt me, give me something from nothing
this is the lie that you come from
meet me down in the mud
she is the mother and she loves it when we all hurt each other
proud that her children are weak
I am a language that you have hidden in a syllable and now you're refusing to speak
I don't even cry anymore
hurt me with your mouth make me settle down
whispering the words on the wind as they blow
heartbeat in the nest, pressure on my chest where did all the signs of the dissonant go
and when they tell me they pray for me and they lack a certain empathy the enemy hits me so low
so the circles on the ground make me settle down
hurt me, give me something from nothing
this is the lie that you come from
my skin crawls
my chest heaves
punish me
it's the effect of the mara
This song is so underrated. By far one of their best songs 🖤
Agreed.
For realll, so Beautiful
PT 1 and 3 are the Best IMO 2 was alright but not nearly as good as p1/3
"by far" and "one of the" can not be used together.
Well duh
I like to believe one of the many ideas on why this song generates so much terror is because that polyrhythm groove at the beginning feels like something is chasing you. Especially with the snare and kick, with the snare slowly encroaching on the downbeat.
just keeps you in motion, keeps you tense.
It makes me really sad to think I could have been listening to this for 3 years but I jus found Spiritbox like last month...
Man I found them TODAY
Me too Joshua! There’s something so perfect about them. I feel like I found a pound of gold.
Jus found them today also thanks to Liquid Metal on Sirius/XM
@@dougkennedy75 Those 3 videos from Liquid Metal are some great live takes. Glad you found them.
@@dougkennedy75 Found them on Octane earlier tonight 😉
Almost three years later and I'm still just as utterly enchanted as the first time I heard Courtney's anguished cries of "IT'S THE EFFECT OF THE MARA".
yeah well that's the effect of the Mara ;-)
This is love, make it stop
What exactly is the Mara Effect?
@@andys3035 not much out there for clarity, but Courtney once spoke on a podcast about it being inspired by a friend who suffered from sleep paralysis, which the band tied in with lore about an entity/deity known as Mara who can bring on nightmares.
@@Chinatsudragon hmmmm, interesting. Thanks for sharing
My favorite of the Mara Effect songs... I just fucking love this band. Period.
That chorus is something else... Totally makes ya feel something
It's so damn powerful
Late to the party , this is fuckin amazing , just heard bleach bath and belcarra wow
Great great song but boring video.
Her melodies are beyond words...
@@autocon72 It's called having zero budget, like most metal bands
And they say modern music is terrible....they're just listening to the wrong music.
amen
No, Modern chart music is rubbish.
Good Metal has always been good!
Normies think the only music that exists is on Facebook or the radio.
Easy to say when you are a fan of it..but I think (and this is going to sound bad) for most mainstream minded people..mindless music without thought is confused for good music...what we have here in Spiritbox is so god damn brilliant but around where I live...not many people like metal to begin with.
That is what I have been trying to say for freaking years.
This song has that "mood". I can't explain this particular mood entirely, heavy and driving but weightless, drifting and lost all in one. This is simply the best band I have ever heard yet.
Sweden
Agreed. Spiritbox is fucking perf
It is very groovy
yess,
I know what you mean by the "mood". Some metal bands know how to create this sound, but not a lot, it feels so good, like melancholic and spacey.
The bass riff at 2:00 😻😻😻😻
God 3 years later and this song still makes my heart race with its beautiful chorus and that absolute intense outro, I’m so happy that this band is getting the recognition they’re getting. Definitely going to be the top band of this generation 🤘🏻
I wasn't ready for this, and that's the part I like the most
That first chorus into the bass groove is incredible 🔥🔥🔥
the groove right after that is something else.... then she hits that high note over it.... i melt into a puddle every time
"I am a language that you have hidden in a syllable and now you're refusing to speak, I don't even crYYYYYY anymore"... ME = PUDDLE
BRUH
This song is straight up BEAUTIFUL, but the idea of how it was shot on an iPhone with just 10 gallons of milk just BLOWS MY MIND!! The way your music makes me feel is... the way The Contortionists music makes me feel. Goosebumps everywhere my friends.
wait wheres does it say it was shot on an iphone??
03:35 - her voice...brutal yet so beautiful. Getting goosebumps every time
The ending sequence of this video is like going into a mental loop before a psychosis, or a K-hole. It brings up some legitimate existential terror with such simple imagery and execution. So damn incredible.
Well said.
Every part of The Mara Effect along with 10:16 is perfect. I love to listen to them in order over and over again. Wish these songs got more recognition 'cause they're pretty damn good.
This is art. ♥️😍 truly incredible.
Ediana Ventrice *"this is love"
Tyler Zachary its obviously the effect of the mara
You never really come back from the first time hearing this song. Hauntingly beautiful and addicting.
You can tell they pull heavy influence from Tesseract and Periphery... its god damn beautiful man.
Has “Absolomb” vibes. First time hearing this one and my immediate thought was Periphery??? 😂
This deserves way more views
never seen a video / heard a song for which this is more true
Hear it everyday and show all your friends that's what i did and do plus i ride my bike with a speaker attached and jam it loud for the neighborhood
@@mariobarrera420 that's a little excessive 😂
For some reason this takes me back to the days of Massive Attack and Portishead. So much intelligence and atmosphere with the sound and themes.
4 years later, and this is the most under rated and under appreciated song Spiritbox put out.
Words can't express how much I dig this tune...just a phenomenal song all the way around. INSTANT fan !!!
Your voice is so beautiful, I'm so glad this new project let's your vocals breathe!!!
I just found this band and I cant stop listening. The beauty and pain, the kindness and rage, the love and disappointment, I feel it all and its almost like someone is speaking my thoughts. I am almost sad that I love it so much because that means she must feel the same beauty and pain about life, but I am thankful for having heard her words and the bands music. Has hints of Rush and Coheed and Cambria...and this one time I went into the woods and iwrestledabearonce...with a Boat Paddle. #Spiritbox @Spiritbox....what ever # and @ mean...................
Part of me wants to pick her brain for the meanings behind these songs but it feels like they must be super personal
@@GloomySunset SAME! I just take my own interpretation from the words and how they relate and resonate with me. I would be very interested what the meaning of her words are to her...your guess is as good as mine.
"I don't even cry anymore" I just went through a divorce and this is very meaningful to me. Thank you. I'm glad I was blessed to see you live in Seattle recently, and I hope you come back soon!
New album just launched and this is still my favorite song from them.
I'm so glad this was my #1 song on spotify this year. Absolute favourite.
Whoever produced and directed this deserves an award. It seems they only used *maybe* 1 or 2 rooms, did imagery outside, then did the effects with lighting and the video recorder. Yet, it still created the atmosphere of terror, fear, and being trapped substantially. Every time I watch the ending, it gives me chills. Very nicely done 👌🏾
That was just Mike Stringer with an iPhone and some liters of milk ❤❤
Oh my goddess... I almost cried. One of my new favorites! I'm so in love with her. Spirtbox you are in my heart.. . speechless.
They are too freaking good! 🤘🤘🤘
This is pure perfection. 3:20 ... oh my god. Giving me chills everywhere. Just like every other song by Spiritbox. Courtney, your voice is so beautiful in any way. I love your clean vocals as much as I love your screams and growls because you, as a band, are able to find the perfect mix and compose your music perfectly fitting Courtney's voice. You are amazing. I really appreciate your work and I'm looking forward to more incredible good music from you in the future ♥
This is one of my favorite songs now. I love the emotion I feel like I can truly relate. I feel like music should do that to people.
This is why I listen to music. So intense and mellow at the same time. I love this so much
everytime i listen to this Song, i get the feeling that i float through space. i love it
This song as well as the complete 3part series The Mara Effect is absolutely FUC#### GENIUS!!!....Thankyou SPX 4 showing all of us how IT is done ....Respect....
Thank u Courtney for this epic project. Lyrics are emotional and pure. Music? this is not music. Just honey...
They need a tour with Periphery,Tesseract, or Skyharbor to get their name out there they are criminally underrated.
Valo84 i dont remember if skyharbor is still together or not
For get that. erra, spirit box and the artificials. That would amazing
When I started reading your comment I had to do a double take because it's exactly what I would've said. Well, except add Jinjer to the list
Yeah, playing openers, each night for years, it does not pay off.
I'm sure they're going to break through! Sick outro of this heavy 3 rounder btw!
Lmao now look at them. Getting featured in every major metal magazine and website. Mainstream youtubers are reacting to them. This is like what you want for that small band that you liked when they first came out and this time it actually happened.
In 3 months SpiritBox have gone from a new discovery to enjoy and appreciate, to an inspiring part of my life both literally and musically. Better late than never, these melodies, vocal patterns, guitar grooves. These are talented and emotionally charged musicians. I connect with that, thanks for reigniting my musical passion and being the catalyst for the end of my 3 year writers block! Lifelong fan now!
Same here. It's just a perfect combination of musicians I think
Weeks later and I'm still getting goosebumps from this band.
This is so my favorite album of 2017. Seriously can't stop listening and singing along with every song!
🔥🔥 Show of hands who used to listen to lWABO and found this band. // I first listened to IWABO when I was in 6th grade. // Last couple of years had me busy with life and I forgot about IWABO but came across Spiritbox in the end of 2020. 🔥🔥
Real music still exists, it's a miracle. You guys are awesome. 🤘
Spiritbox + Deftones collab would probably kill me in the best way
Your EP is deeply emotional, I can listen in a loop, and loop, never get tired. Courntey, your voice is superb, and the musicians bring you an excellent atmosphere and an undeniable talent.
I won't lie, this is probably my new favourite song. Undoubtedly my favourite band for this last year but never knew just how great it was. You can really feel the work that was put in to these tracks and it is absolutely upsetting that I won't ever reach this level of greatness. I am in complete awe by the talent y'all have.
P.S. How don't even understand how Mike makes his low tunings so melodic and great.
Her range is so amazing
Best metal song I've heard in a very long time.
Holy fuck, I’m blown away.
There is nothing musically out there now that has the emotion of this ep. please we need more music like if you all agree.
The only thing I can think of that comes close would be Dir en Grey, go listen to Rinkaku or Behind a Vacant Image
This one aged well
dude 100% pop is elevator music compared to this.
@selenite. id love tp hear it
I remember when Spiritbox used to be my little secret 🖤
Ah the good old days. Following them, waiting for them to release even just one song. Then this came and absolutely blew my mind. Didnt get to see them while they were still tiny cause of covid cancelling that tour, but saw them recently, many years on. This was the only song they played from this era, and the crowd definitely didn't vibe with it. Made me so sad.
@@waynecalvert2148 and that is insane imo. This song is so 🔥🔥🔥
Don't feel so special now anymore do you?
Sameee, they are amazing. Singular band whose shirt i legitimately bought, shipped from other goddamn continent. Now they are so big there's actual hope they may end up touring in my corner of Europe someday.
Everything about this. So many brilliant songs...
I have such a huge appreciation when a song can send your nerves tingling and these artists DELIVER! Steady fucking chills from start to finish.
This EP seriously gave me some life while other things were shitty. Truly thanks
Same man. Pulled me out of a dark place.
Her clean vocals are uderatted
better to be uderatted than oderatted
Very underrated
lmaoo
Silky smooth
I think its because we never heard her cleans. She has been screaming since: unicron, I.w.a.b.o making two album. Truly a fan, though I like her old stuff.
4:17 I can hear this part 24 hours a day 7 days a week, goose bumps, those screams enter the depths of your soul ...
It's the effect of the Mara
“what do you want for your music video”
*MILK BATH*
green screen...
@@damonsasser8129 "digital bath"
Kind of like the music video for Intra Venus by Ne Obliviscaris!
@@GaaraOfTheDarkSand deftones💪💪
@@GaaraOfTheDarkSand nice one
doesnt get any better than
Spiritbox, they have slayn the genre w/ every track they put out which is pure perfection calming their status as a band, peacocking displaying their pure, powerful, unique musicianship. floored every time i jam 2them. w/out Courtney's talent they'd be like everyone else in the scene, average djent metalcore
This song is so good, like divinely inspired.
You guys channel some seriously powerful energy from the divine feminine. Like total kali energy. Wow love the power I respect you so much
You got this ladies!
god I love the part were Courtney starts growling, gives me goosebumps everytime. such a beautiful song
I love her voice so much she’s amazing 💖
That second verse is still one of the most ethereal, chill inducing pieces of music I’ve EVER heard.
The bass line and tone in this song is unbelievable awesome!
Love the ambient djent vibes 😍😍 what a masterpiece.
Thank you!!
completely insane that this band is not blowing up like crazy right now. maybe they are.
That scream at 3:45 gets me every time.
This song is so beautiful, and, well, I tear up at the ending every time! INTENSE!!
I've never had a band make songs that were in my head all day for days at a time, only to switch to another one of their songs, repeat. I listened to this one maybe 25 times today?
so tesseract-esque, yet so different. I'm speechless, loving it!
Dark and beautiful
I'm hooked on Spiritbox...
Love everything they are doing. In an age where there isn't much originally they stand out. Bringing art back to music.
The bass in this song is something else
I love how she is very detailed on how she felt during this song. Definitely gave me the feels.
MY! SKIN! CRAWLS! I fucking love this band! Thank you for being so awesome. Like everyone here I am pleased to say I finally have a new favorite band of all time! Doesn't happen often, but it's the best feeling when an artist just clicks with you right off the rip and you spend the next month only listening to them.
I've had this song and electric cross stuck in my head for 48 hours now. I read that IWABO was from Shreveport, not sure where Spiritbox is based out of, but the lyrical weight of these songs are crippling. I'm born/raised from the south coast, Texas gulf, and I've never heard anyone ever say the things she's singing about here. Things that everyone knows about, that you aren't allowed to put your finger on. Things so bad that strangers who recognize what's going on will go dead silent and quietly leave and never speak of. Just wanted to throw it out there that the words hit their mark. Hard. This shit kills me and I can't stop playing it. Nothing has hit this hard lyrically since Deftones 'Battle Axe' when I was 17. Love from Houston.
Haven’t listened to much new music in years, but this song randomly popped up on my Spotify one day and I was immediately in love.
Fantastic music; please keep it up!
woa. epic! my friend shared this with caption : tesseract + deftones
dang her voice is soo pure and suited for this!
courtney is love
thats so masterpiece! artistic ambience and song
It just might be the best song my ears have ever heard, can't get enough! I hope this is just the beginning for this insanely talented band!
you are amazing, angelical voice ! i am impress! wonderful
Courtney's voice is gold, both cleans and screams, and with Spiritbox we can hear a more Post-Hardcore/Metalcore approach that fits more mi likes. Thanks for songs like this.
GROOVY ! I absolutely love it !
I listen to this song everyday while on my morning walks. I love it.
Reminds me of Tesseracts Altered State :) Play a show in Victoria!
Marshall Fehr, when I heard it on Spotify I thought it might have been Tesseract.
Love the Tesseract vibe
I think the same ♡♡
I had never hear do these guys until they just popped up in my youtube recommendations just now. And I was thinking the exact same thing. Very Tesseract-y. I would be shocked if these guys weren't Tesseract fans too. The influence is obvious. Nothing wrong with that though. Tesseract is dope as fuck.
Ablat desu would be a great band to tour with tesseract
>Singularity
😏
Explains why I gravitated to this band so easily
Game changer, I wish you guys nothing but success on what you have created. 🤯
So. Fucking. POWERFUL.
So happy to hear this cleans again.
this makes me proud to have been apart of the hardcore/metal scene from 07-14... There is something about her ambiance and vocal patterns that gives me nostalgia of the 90s especially the video games. I could play the whole legacy of kain series whilst listening to this... I saw IWABO back in the day and loved it but i didn't love it enough to the point where i listen to 5 or 6 of their songs daily, like i do with Spiritbox...
The most addictive hook I've ever heard.
So much to say.. i came from iwrestledabearonce and now I’m hooked on these guys! Wow. And I believe that is IWABO’s drummer? I know the singer Courtney of course! What a Mix. Sounds a little like evanescence vocals and tesseract?? I’m am intrigued 👀
Omg.. From 3:34 i have goose bumps.. The buildup to this point is epic, and the ending just rips and tears!! I fucking love it!! Well done Spiritbox!!
I haven't been this excited about a new band since Mudvayne
Just really impressive
Courtney your voice is so angelic, it's the most beautiful sound I have ever heard.
This is so fucking good.
Been getting into spiritbox I love the creepy feel to their songs.
This band just blows me the fuck away every time
