This band came from planet Zephoron to bring us this music. They traveled thousands of light years and fought threw hundred of space droins just to show us this talent. THUMBS UP FOR THE CONTORTIONIST!
Yeah this album is fucking perfect, this is way better than their new stuff, listen to the lyrics and the structure of every single song its hard to believe I watched this entire album live.
I remember finding this band through this ep back in like junior high. Saw them for the first time around 2010 exoplanet came out, really wish I could have seen them during the time this came out tho. Always dug this alot more than exoplanet while also loving exoplanet, the new album is really good but it's just...nowhere near this mix of brutality and beauty. I remember thinking this band was going to be a huge melodic deathcore band but nah.
yup that's the part for me too. I was listening to it when I got called into the principle in high school for suspected selling/ buying pot and I felt like I was having a spiritual revelation.
I thought I was going crazy. I would listen to this in high school around 2010. Today Apple Music updated my fucking songs and this one changed to the other one, which is terrible. This version is amazing!!!!!
This goes to show to all the people who think just cause you scream in a song it doesnt mean its bad. These guys put more emotion into there songs then most shit bands out there just let the instrauments speak for themselves
@MrFiendlord I wish I was so lucky to have the experience. The only great band that comes around here is Protest the Hero, all the others never come closer than Montreal
So the real reason this is a better version than exoplanet is bc Dave Hoffmann was doing vocals at the time . the band for their deal and then Dave had to leave ,_' of legal reason or something like that. After that all the shit they have put out is still good but, not as heavy or pounding
Yeah I live in slc,ut I'm sick of the seen here and we get a decent amount of bands the best part of that show is when we all got high ridiculous niggasXD

After all these years, I just want to thank you for introducing me to the power of The Contortionist lol
Wow dude, this band has come a long way

4:30 chills start forming... this song is amazing.

the part at 3:58 is so beautiful and amazing it brought a tear to my eye
yup that's the part for me too. I was listening to it when I got called into the principle in high school for suspected selling/ buying pot and I felt like I was having a spiritual revelation.
@@rhombusskullvsteal1 what happened next?
Before This band talked about science.
really an amazing band
Listen to the new one by buying Exoplanet! Sounds even better
These guys are amazing.
I thought I was going crazy. I would listen to this in high school around 2010. Today Apple Music updated my fucking songs and this one changed to the other one, which is terrible. This version is amazing!!!!!
@IthyphallicDaryn I guess you stopped hearing this song at 2:25 because this is what makes The contotionist so special ;)
Listen to their new album, Exoplanet. They're also coming out with Intrinsic this July
This goes to show to all the people who think just cause you scream in a song it doesnt mean its bad. These guys put more emotion into there songs then most shit bands out there just let the instrauments speak for themselves
@Goats0nAboat yes.
Everyone stop arguing about how this is better than Exoplanet. They are both amazing albums. Enjoy them both.
@MrFiendlord I wish I was so lucky to have the experience. The only great band that comes around here is Protest the Hero, all the others never come closer than Montreal
sounds like everyother fucking deathcore band out there
This version is so much better. The rerecorded version sounds over produced and doesn't flow as well as the original.
Andrew Kline This version barely flows.....
oh my god its like between the buried and me plus whitechapel in the best way possible
The guitar at 3:59 sends chills through my spine max volume lets go!
9 years later, I can recommend Disillusion's "Back to Times of Splendor".
fuckin awesome!
@mario1136 Its called a noise gate and a compressor
You should have played this album live!
what tuning do they play in? and what kind of guitar and how many strings?
Hi, 12 years late, it's drop G#
Hey everyone go check out "they were all goliaths" /m\
So fucking epic!
epic..
@nikrus15 ROFL SO HARD IM CRYING BLOOD AND SHITTING GUTS!!!!!!
they remind me of born of osiris
The sound quality is fuzzy, sounds much better on the cd!!!
@IthyphallicDaryn check out the newer incarnation of this band and say that.
1:36-2:26 🔥🎩🔥
@coolguymagoo1 thanks I guess XD
@J10A12H I came when i heard this band live..... haha. Nahh but their a sweet band
Listen tot he Exoplanet version, bro
this isn't the original line up
lyrics are pretty evil. don't know what they have to do with oscillation
@nikrus15 its cacti
@IthyphallicDaryn Well then stick with listening to Nile, if it makes you feel cooler.
they play in drop B right? does anyone know?
A on a 6 string on this album I believe
@nikrus15 hmmm no.. clean your ears, mate
So the real reason this is a better version than exoplanet is bc Dave Hoffmann was doing vocals at the time . the band for their deal and then Dave had to leave ,_' of legal reason or something like that. After that all the shit they have put out is still good but, not as heavy or pounding
@chrishoppe
@G27dude Snd mate.
Yeah I live in slc,ut I'm sick of the seen here and we get a decent amount of bands the best part of that show is when we all got high ridiculous niggasXD
Are you saying if these guys were woman you wouldn't go lesbian for them
Bro
You know how I know your gay ? cuz ur name is bunni....hah(but Iwould totally go gay for these guys)
@IthyphallicDaryn Then clearly you know nothing about musical structure or genre building.
I still think Dir en grey sounds better.
@yorkpig612 i gave you a thumbs down
This vocalist was by far the best. Dont dig the new shoegaze/buttrock style.
