Bryan did an interview with Shawn the Butcher on Liquid Metal today. This video was all done with stop motion and it took the artist they worked with like 6 or 7 months to complete it.
If that isn't dedication to your craft, idk what is
Holy shit! Thanks for filling us in, that’s wicked
Do you have a link for the interview? I can’t seem to find it
Can you link that? I need a source because i literally do not believe it lol
@@dingo4229 Go on Knocked Loose's Social Media. They have all the dates when the interview will re-air. I think the next re-air is tonight at 8pm on Channel 40.
The black metal sounding vocals in “God Knows” is a feature from the guitarist/vocalist of the band Portrayal Of Guilt
Also great band, check them out. They put out one of my favorite albums this year and are about to drop a second one in the same year if I’m not mistake
They should use more of that kind of vocals
My guy. Thanks I was wondering.
This is probably the HEAVIEST that knocked Loose has ever put out!!! These songs made me have the stank face on. It’s SOO good I have to listen to it again!!!!!
Stank face confirmed i smelled a nasty riff since it started
my first time coming across these lads. What a pleasant surprise 🔥💀
I love Knocked Loose but this isn’t their heaviest. Both Laugh Tracks and A different shade of blue were unrelenting savagery. This ep is more restrained and atmospheric.
@@QuestNation3221 Which can also make it heavier for different reasons.
this album isnt about heavy. Its a story from beginning to end. True artwork.
Coming off of their first two albums, this absolutely feels like a full fruition for KL. I think for the first time, they really have a vision for their sound, and boy does it show. Was not expecting this to appear in my Feed today, but I’m not disappointed.
Its fkn dope. Their sound got wilder even when you thought this wouldnt be possible🤣 do i prefer it to ADSOB? Nah i dont think so
Me either, the randomness of the release was so pleasant no matter what time each person saw it.
You're a real one for giving us this knowledge.
If you just look at Laugh Tracks and A Different Shade of Blue vs this, you're missing a LOT. Pop Culture was their debut solo "release," and its an EP, and the debut song from that EP, the lead song on Laugh Tracks, and the opener to this all show that over a period of years they've honed a sound they always knew they wanted to get to.
Knocked Loose has grown on me so much. Their vocals used to irritate me now i love them!
Same!! Counterparts was like the first me too and one of my favorites now 🤘🏻🤘🏻
"Their vocals used to irritate me but now I love them" if I had a dollar for everytime I had this same thought I'd have enough money to sign all those bands to them same label lmao
This EP had absolutely no business being this heavy and amazing. The new guitarist has brought a whole new dynamic and they're on top of the genre right now 🔥
NO BUSINESS!! Absolute masterpiece
Oddly enough, this EP was written and recorded by their old guitarist
I can tell that their guitarist loves the wilder side of Every Time I Die. Both of their songwriting styles emphasize winding, ever-shifting instrumentation. Knocked Loose are a great blend of instantaneous meat & potatoes hardcore and unpredictable, chaotic song-structures and riffs.
Totally hear ETID and LOVE it!
Didn’t think about it until you mentioned it man
bryan has mentioned before that Every time I Die is one of his favorite bands!
Great way to put it
@@METALBIRB you should hear ETID's vocalist's feature on Knocked Loose's song "Forget Your Name"! if not a reaction just on your own
i've never been a huge Knocked Loose fan but I loved this. heavy, heartbreaking, and the video really adds to the experience of listening to the album.
Yeah, I think I'll probably just listen to the whole damn thing, the video is too good not to have that accompaniment.
Particularly when he has to let go and then you realize they probably both died in the crash.
bro i legitimately broke down crying
The "90's style" effect they use on the dissonant textural riffs is just a crunchy/driven tone through a light chorus effect, Deftones, Korn and Limp Bizkit use the same effect a whole bunch
Yes! Thanks for explaining it
@@METALBIRB Tone City make a pedal called the Angel Wing which is like $50 and replicates those tones pretty well!
@@XAVR_ it's delay + chorus but they also have other effects for added heaviness at times (see the gear video)
@@tranquil87 The "90's style" effect he was talking about was chorus though... I'm aware they use other effects for other parts of their songs.
This is probably the best shit I’ve heard from the scene in awhile. They have advanced to a whole new level.
The ep is fucking unreal. I think god knows is my favourite track ! Parts of it was definitely influenced by deathcore , which is badass. I think their new guitarist was a great addition to their sound. Bryan sounds amazing. This ep is probably their best.
Man. I'm literally speechless rn. I'm a big prog/metalcore/hardcore guy more than I am deathcore and the like, but I feel like this is the heaviest shit I've ever listened to. The transitions and samples almost give this a cinematic movie score, which is made even more evident by the great accompanying video. Might be the hype talking but this is S tier to me 🙏
Haven't had a concussion like this since 'a call to the faithful' by inhale/exhale. 🤘🏻
Imo it's the contemporary equivalent of When Forever Comes Crashing, but with more breakdowns lol. The creativity is just as off the charts as Kurt Ballou in his prime.
Late fuckin comment lol.
This is beatdown/hardcore!!
I love how other people listen to this the exact way I do - this is a beautiful album that everyone should know about. I almost hope KL only makes concept albums like this moving forward.
I've listened to this EP probably a hundred times now (always from start to finish in order) and I have to say the entire thing feels like it builds up to that final line "when I saw that ghost was you all the lights went out." Just the raw emotion in his voice and portrayed with the instruments is like a shotgun blast to your soul. Fucking incredible.
This is some of the most exciting and refreshing metal I’ve heard in so long, I am absolutely blown away by this EP. I’m dying for more already
this EP is some of the heaviest shit i’ve heard in awhile, next to Darkos release while ago.. this was fuckin AMAZING.
The guest vocals in God Knows is Matt from Portrayal of Guilt
Yea. The real MVP here. Everybody will ask that.
That was some straight up black metal sounding shit it was insane
I was totally thinkin it was Brian adding some guttural to his normal scream. Super cool Matt's on this track tho
@@colinseguin9651 you should check out Portrayal of Guilt. They're literally blackened hardcore. Evil shit
@@drewcdroppop8756 Brian does have some truly vile shit he's done in the past, it comes through once or twice in other places on the EP too.
This release is absurd. Also, the guest from the Portrayal of Guilt frontman gave me the feels. I love them also.
This EP beat the living fuck out of me, holy shit. Loving the black metal influences and the Portrayal of Guilt feature.
the new guitarist (nicko) can riff as hard as isaac and it definitely shows on this. (which is his first recording with KL)
This ep has been written since 2019 and was Cole’s final writing contribution. Nicko had no involvement.
@@joehardwaree well he can definitely play it like he wrote it lol. Seen them twice on the tour with Gojira. One of the times right in front of him and he was awesome
He wasn't part of the writing in this album, lol.
The grief and guilt imagery in this video is unreal. What a piece of art through and through.
The video gives me insane Tool vibes
some of, if not their best material to date. Contorted In The Faille and Permanent are some of my favorite songs they've ever done. :)
This Band is truely a god-tier heavy Band and Will Putney is the god of produicing heavy music. And that is his best work yet. And probably KL's best release, even tho everything they've done is perfect imo. But they get better and better. This Band can't let me down.
This, this right here^
For me it's a 3 way tie between Putney, Will Yip, and Kurt Ballou. Too hard for me to pick one, they're all outstanding at what they do
Some of the best material I've ever heard from these guys. I love the band Orthodox and KL had a couple of moments on this EP that reminded me of them. As if I needed more reason to like this band.
The little spoken word on the light divides the holler definitely reminds me of orthodox
@@graydrive5796 that’s the first thing that caught my attention. Loved that.
This is a piece of brutal art. I love it alot !!
If you want a similar listening experience, I'd reccomend reacting to Katahdin - "No Longer Room For Us. 3 song EP condensed into a single music video, played in the same style/genre as this, but it's a different beast all its own.
This EP is fantastic. KL stepped their game up so hard and really let their death metal influence shine here. Great reaction as always 👍
Another one of my favorite albums/EPs this year! Definitely worth checking out
This album fascinates me on so many levels, the writing in particular. It’s so fucking poetic.
For the first time in my life, music has terrified me. I'm all about it.
And of all the possible bands to do it, it was Knocked Loose. Not Devourment, not The Body, hell not even Jazz could shake me to my core quite like this EP.
The same guy who made this video also did the video for Meshuggah’s I am Colossus. You can definitely see the same style in that video as well. It took him 8 months to do the video for Knocked loose’s ep.
Kinda hurts to think about how underpaid he probably is. This is amazing work, but I doubt he gets paid more than 10 dollars per hour he works on this. It’s usually like that for creative minds in the CGI / 3D modeling and Video Editing communities.
This album gives me some serious Ulcerate vibes and I really like it. Has the same sort of choking atmosphere as Stare Into Death and Be Still
I love the atmosphere this EP gives off it's so dark and disturbing especially paired with the short film very tim Burton inspired I love it
I AM WITH YOU NOW
Dude I just read this while he screamed it 😂
Saw dudes last week, & not only was it the most pissed brutal fuck fest but these dudes were IMPECCABLY tight.. all the tempo changes & working around samples, stage presence was s tier just fucking 👌. KL gives me soo much hope & joy for the future of hardcore & Beatdown specifically. They arnt reinventing the wheel per say but they are authentically themselves, they know what the fans want & they deliver. Plus Bryan's voice sounds like nothing else in the game dude I mean it's similar to Andrew from Stray From The Path but even he isn't this PISSED.
I’m gonna die in the pit when I see them soon!🤘🏻🔥🥵
as a Knocked Loose fan, I immediately preordered the ep on vinyl once watching it. My god what an experience. So awesome to hear new music still creating experiences and innovating music to be something bigger then just what it was.
I was at the gym when I first watched their RUclips video for this EP and I just really don't think I needed to be doing cardio at that time. Almost had a heartattack. Fucking riiiipsss
Thanks for your videos dude!
I used to think reaction videos were so silly but now i can say you reaction videos of KL are my favorite
This EP was amazing! Didnt even know it was dropping today, thought it was later in the year. Ill take it! Also gotta ask… what are the lights in the back to go with sound??
That third plug had me ready for this video, then it was about a metal review!?!? I was teased lol
But for real this was a great EP and God Knows is my favorite song by the band to this date
It does destroy! Thank you!
Thanks for letting me know this exists!
I went on boneworks vr and started crowdkilling npcs 😂😂😂
Lmaooooo I'm about to do this now
They really leveled up with this one.
the god knows breakdown is one of the most emotional things ive ever heard jesus christ
Great concept for an EP
6:38 the exact reaction I had lmao
Just saw them live tonight in Wichita Kansas with Gojira and Alien Weaponry. I was completely floored. Wasn’t big on them, but after seeing them, I’m a fan. The EP is sick.
Amazing intro
An absolute banger 🤘🤘🤘🤘
I always finding myself clenching my fist very hart whenver i even a listen a second to Knocked Loose
ITS SO FUCKING GOOD!
I honestly don’t know if any of them has lost a loved one in a car crash but oh my god the emotions and details and portraying them feel so goddamn personal
Seen them last weekend and they are great live.
I just can’t stop listening to this EP. Definitely their most standout work to date imo.
I love all the references to their older music in this EP
This fucking knocked me on my ass. The New Trivium was amazing but Knocked Loose gave me that same urge that i had to break things and laugh that i used to get when i was young.
That intro is boutta get you demonetized man haha. This is a fucking insane EP. I didn't realize a whole ass short film came with it until I saw your video. This shit had me fucking moshing in my room
SEPULCHRAL is the word that perfectly embodies the feeling of the video, music, and lyrics.
Absolutely incredible EP.
I love knocked loose and will always love them!!🤘🔥🔥
This album is the new standard
@METALBIRB
A Tear in the Fabric of Life is a work of art, musically and with this animated video visually as well!
It makes such an impact on so many levels, you wanna bang your head while your jaw drops to the floor and yes, while being bonecrushing this EP as a whole makes me get emotional at times.
The variety of styles, the tempo changes, the rhythm, the breakdowns, the vocals (lead and backing), the atmosphere and those little melodies and riffs that crawl underneath your skin and add an extra layer to the maniacal music just makes this EP flawless!
This is the only album that I never listened on shuffle. I can't listen to permanent without listening to the previous songs in order for some reason like the whole EP is just so amazing
Been here since the vfw days..now creating a new genre.
Yes finally
SHEEEEESH. It's 3 AM, I'm way too fucking hype after watching this.
This is ridiculously good
Damnnnnn knocked loose went off. I've always been hit or miss with their stuff but this ep is straight fire. Really impressed with the song writing here
I havn't really listened to this band before. Sounds heavy as hell, the kind I like. Gotta listen to more cause im not feeling the voice yet. One of those early riffs made me immediately think of Pig Destroyer(my favorite heavy band).
nearly every single person i’ve ever heard talk about KL, myself included, have said that Bryan’s vocals took a little bit to grow on them. now I love them but at first I didn’t really dig it!
Like he said, I was the same way. Loved the instruments, hated the vocals. Just keep listening to them every once in a while and one day it'll just click. Now i couldnt listen to them without the vocals.
@@Highlarious8482 especially if you read the lyrics to their songs. Bryan's vocals add so much more raw emotion to the songs once you fully understand what a track is about.
Its growing on me!
I like this more than the last album.
Knocked loose forever my man hahaha this shit was so sick
4:39 is where me and Drew lost our shit! Huge Gojira vibes
Listened to this EP once. Now I walk with a limp.
Their guitarist is absolutely amazing omg
The fucking vocals man
LET'S GO BABY! I can finally watch this now! My favorite reactor on YT
Nightmarish in the best way possible. So heavy and the riffs 💦 love the fills, off 90s sounding licks
This ep absolutely slaps
Yup, that was definitely a plug
EP of the year. This is some heavy fucking shit !
I have that same oscillating fan.
Dude, it's so good. I saw an interview with the singer. He said his favorite band is DISEMBODIED. Makes so much sense!!!
This EP gave me chills. The last time i felt that was when i listened to Jane Doe by Converge for the first time.
PLEASE do the new Angelmaker material, such a knee slapper. Vengeance is my favorite, they stated with that track they wanted to pay homage to true OG death core fans and boy it delivered!!
There’s something in the production of Angelmaker’s new stuff that makes my ears feel weird. Like some tinny thing going on idk but once I heard it I can’t unhear it
Wait.... there's new KL???????????
I usually listen to an album or two while working, scared of doing this one though because i might just start moshing relentlessly.
In my honest opinion this is the best material they’ve ever put out.
Best music video ever
Contorted is my favorite for sure. Such a filthy fucking song
Music video is frickin insane
The odd time signatures on this album really do it for me. God these guys fuck hard!!!!
So fucking bad ass.
11/10 ep no cons ofc 🥰
Saw them and Kublai Khan together. My face has melted damage.
Let's go, Brandon.
Say whatever you want, but this whole album is really emotional for me, especially after reading the lyrics. I've been in a similar situation, but the emotions wrapped up in this come from a worse experience.
God knows makes me two step my fucking feet off
One of the records of the year for me...not less
Fuck me this album is amazing. If you want some shit that’s even harsher though, you should definitely check out some of Frontierer’s new shit. It goes………hard
