Well... I've listened to this 3 times in as many days.
This is retroactively the album of 2020 for me.
It's also the best concept album I've ever heard. Its at least the first one that the lyrics alone hit me emotionally. It's like dream theater rewrote scenes from a memory while trying to sound more like early opeth. Then Tool came in and forced them to write better lyrics and remove all the wankery that doesn't add to the song.
I don't think there's any filler here. The lyrics are deep, the drums are perfect, the vocals are the most emotive I've heard in progressive metal...
The guitars are something else, though. Is that a freaking shepherds tone illusion turned into a riff halfway through the nightmare? I don't know what else to call it. So many creative, great riffs.
Then I see 5k views, and only around 10k on spotify. Then I find out it's all one guy. This dude could be in my top 5 in progressive metal for every instrument. Maybe not technicality wise, but the song writing here is incredible.
Opeth lyrics are wankery? Lol. I don't know for certain, but I'd be sure that one man hasn't played and recorded everything on this album.
You make us listeners live through something awful, in an astonishing way. What you shared here, we can feel it, in a way that no words would ever explain. It is pure art, hijacking our senses and injecting your experience deep into our perception. Thank you for this and burn brightly.
That last part of Stage 6 hit me the hardest.
I don't know how you have made all these styles and textures make sense together. It's a total mystery and a masterful demonstration of musical intention. Approachable without holding back. Good lord, this is good.
Welp, you basically made Everywhere at the end of time a more compact, interesting (and equally impactful) listening experience. Thank you.
20:35 This part gets me every time. Very strong piece, I love it.
Haven't felt this moved by an album in a long time. Going on the third family member with dementia and seems like a foregone conclusion for my life. This is sad and beautiful, love it.
I have never heard a work of music absolutely shatter in to pieces like this album at 45:54. I mean it just sounds like hell. Additionally, I don’t think that i’ve ever heard so much pain convincingly in a vocalist’s voice as there is at 57:00 until the end of Stage 6. This is an incredible record! Bravo!!
I remember seeing a recommendation about this album last year but I never checked it out. Turns out that this year my grandma is now having this problems and man, I just cried the entire hour listening to this, the album hits really hard and this shit is just too awful. I don't wish it for anyone. This is a beautiful piece of art and I can't imagine how hard it must have been to make it.
Absolutely brilliant!
A masterpiece. I've had 2 family members pass away as a result of this terrible condition and now my fiancee just lost her grandmother who had been dealing with dementia for years. This album brought that all back to me but in a way of understanding and dealing with it. Thank you for this I haven't cried that much listening to music in years.
I just met this band and I couldn't be more fascinated. Greetings from Colombia.
Just found this album and there are some moments that are giving me some major Opeth vibes and I am fucking loving it, one of my favorites from 2020!
I noticed that 36:33 is sampled from the 4th mvt of "Of Sailors and Whales" by Francis McBeth (pitched one tone down), and Stage 7 features an instrumental arrangement of Eric's Whitacre's "Lux Aurumque" (57:58). Awesome use of some great music!
Absolutely exceeded my expectations, and I'm still not sure how that's even possible. Every song has so many beautiful twists and turns, and the story behind it all really hits home. Thank you, The Reticent - this is an album I will treasure forever.
This is SUPER GOOD. It Is RARE to find GEMS like this!!!!!! You have a New fan!!
Just discovered this band. Two songs in and I'm hooked.
How the fuck does this only have 4k views..
this is so amazing! the emotions are so powerful and you can really feel the sense of loss and dread, as well as the frustration Henry is feeling
I just discovered these guys. Quality work. I look forward to hearing more.
Really good stuff. Between anger and positive flows, this album is full of emotions
Incredible work, I will definitively check the rest of your discography
This album is amazing, definitely deserves more ears on it
Death is easy, dying is hard.
Great album!
Geez, what a stunning piece of work that needs to be talked about so much more! Absolutely Marvellous!
awesome work
Reminds me a lot of the band maudlin of the well in terms of experimentation and variation in mood. This is absolutely a timeless and moving classic in progressive metal. I have no words!
Man both this and maudlin of the Well's work is some of the most beautiful music ever, incredibly hard to find music this good.
I thought the same thing. Very Bath/Leaving Your Body Map
This is amazing. It's hard to type out the feelings of my first listen through. Thank you is the only the that comes to my mind.
Genuinely one of the greatest pieces of music I have ever heard. I will most likely be listening to this for years to come and will definitely be buying this album when payday comes around.
Just listened to this and holy crap was this album a haunting, heavy, and emotional journey. The ending of track 6 in particular is gonna stick with me for a long time.
This really hit home for me as both of my grandfathers passed away a few years ago with dementia and my grandmother now has it. It makes me worry about my own parents and I hope to God it does not happen to them.
I'm crying as I type this but I really want to say thank you for making this album. I'll never forget what an incredible experience it was to listen to it.
I found out about you just earlier today. I had time to listen to the whole thing. The picture caught my attention right away because I have seen it before. It sounded really intense. It was like nothing I've ever heard before. I think I got actual goosebumps. This felt really scary to hear, like, there are so many emotions. Thank you for sharing this.
Great album guys! Just heard for the first time. Really enjoy the opeth-ish vibe. Keep it up!
Thanks for the music! All the best.
im so glad i found this band, this album is one of the best things i've ever listened to. just incredible
I just discovered this album from an Instagram page for top progressive metal albums of 2020. This album is a masterpiece and I can't stop listening to it! Amazing job!
Man i tought this was going to be another caretaker fan album, but no, this is a completely different, this is awesome, amazing
I know of the existance of the band/project for a week now. Just listened to the album. It's the very best I ever heard. A sad story, told so well. I felt the lyrics deep down as I never did before. Such a rollercoaster of emotions. I will do my very best to promote and share. I'm in love with Opeth for quite some time now, I have a second love now so it seems.
I love this so much, I found a physical copy and it's now mine! Ty for your art.
Wow! Just got attention to this band by a review from the progressive subway. This is just great! The musicality and deepness reminds me to Persefone, but in addition the story telling is leading to goose bumps! Will instantly purchase the album and look on your other work! Thanks for the music
Wow. This record is an eye opener. Such a powerful story. This music sets your emotions reeling. You should be really proud to have that ability. Great songs and excellent production.
This is a unfathomable work of art. Every shade of sound, every bit of rhythm, every lyric, every single moment perfectly placed, perfectly tuned to the story you’re telling, bringing it to life so vividly, as a perfect translation of all its sadness and horror. This album is nothing short of heartbreaking, and shakes me to my core. I struggle listening to stage 5 and 6 in particular, because they are too real. But that just speaks to the level of art you have created here. You have undoubtedly been touched by the muse. 10/10 and I only have like five or six albums total that I rate that high
A huge fan from Iraq, I think you’re way too good to only have 9k views while pop music get millions, I hope you reach a place where you’re admired by every progressive metal fan
stage 7 almost gave me a panic attack. 10/10
lol same
I will remember .. this Masterpiece !
Dream and Nightmare are the best. The former is liquid, mystical and haunting, meanwhile nostalgic and cozy. The latter is throat clamping and eviscerating.
Any chance of you releasing your music on vinyl? Would love to spin this album.
Had we to financial resources to do so, we would. Regrettably, pressing vinyl is very expensive and we are relative nobodies. But if we can generate the funds and interest, we absolutely will.
Great album guys.
Probably your best album
This is by far the best album I have heard in 2021... A Masterpiece imho
ooof this is heavy, dense and goes deep!!
I don't have words to describe this album.
amazing as always :)
I just stumbled upon this band, and album two nights ago. Man, what an album. It's like if Steven Wilson didn't just produce an Opeth album, but decided to write and perform an album in that style himself. Opeth used to be my favorite band (still love up to Watershed at least), but no other bands have really been able to scratch that itch they left behind. Anciients comes somewhat close, but they have more of a Baroness bend to them (check them out if you haven't heard of them).
Anyway, I've been listening to this album nonstop since finding it. Hopefully Chris decides that he wants to tackle another dark theme, and write an album about it. As long as it doesn't leave him in a bad head space of course. 🙂
damn guys. great stuff.
Here after seeing this on r/progmetal's top albums of 2020. Loving the different sounds and concept, and I'm only on the second track lol
Awesome work and makes me and my friends cry, respect from China and want to see your live in China.
I have listened to dozens of prog metal albums this year and I will rank this 1st.
Hoping for your next album.
Fucking love it. Blown away when I heard this album.
This is so fucking incredible
Its Everywhere at the End of Time... but metal
EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING!
Ok, this is epic.
A redditor recommended this album, I’m glad they did :)
A masterpiece!!!!
excellent
The word underrated gets tossed around so much that it lost meaning but in this case, I cannot think of a more suitable word. Been a fan since Eve, keep up the wonderful work!
hi reticent, i am a listener of yours for a while and i want to thank you for the amazing music that you have, artist like you are the ones who i aspire to be, thanks for existing
This is such a powerful album. Do any of the album's profits go to Alzheimer research?
Thank you so much. And yes, a portion of our profits go towards two different Alzheimer's research centers. Our tour in 2020 was going to be made up of several fundraiser shows for Alzheimer's research but...well, you know what happened. Hopefully, we can set up those shows again in the year(s) to come.
@@TheReticent That is terrific! Also, good use of Eric Whitacre's Lux Aurumque. Hopefully, no copyright issues.
J'adore. C'est très étonnant à la première écoute car assez inhabituel et t cela est très agréable. Un très bon album (in French)
I like. It's very surprising at first listen because it's quite unusual and it's very pleasant. A very good album.
cet album est une pure merveille ! on dirait opeth qui aurait continué à faire de bons albums après ghost reveries
Good
the voice and some moment remind me of Tools!
hmm.. this voice. its... whoaaaa
Unbelievable
The Dream has a chord progression similar to another song I've heard before but I can't remember the name of it. Can someone help me find out what it is?
Timestamps? It's a long song with lots of changes...
@@Cheximus25:15
@@NeritantanGamingAhh, well, two songs come to mind. The original (that I know of) would be Court of the Crimson King by King Crimson and Opeth's Wreath. If it's not one of those then no idea.
what is all this noise?
Pity the vocals are so weak...
Sorry you didn't enjoy our vocals. Thanks anyway for checking out the music.
@@TheReticent Don’t worry about that dick. The vocals are absolutely incredible. There’s always gotta be a contrarian.
@@GrapeFlavoredAntifreeze 100%
Hathcock's got one of the most dynamic voices in prog - soft soulful singing, big moments like vortex, death growls, black metal shrieks, etc.
Pity some people have to be dicks.
Oh man I really hope that this is a troll. This is freaking amazing. You're horribly incorrect. Be ashamed.
@@TheReticent if that is you singing, your vocals are incredible. Some of the best in the genre, for sure!
Opeth wannabe much
oPetH WanNabE mUch - oooo good one bro
Look Roosterhooves,
1. Opeth hasn't sounded anything like this in 12 years so even if Reticent was a ripoff (which they aren't) I say it's high time we had a successor to the throne.
2. You clearly didn't listen to the whole album which makes sense because then it is harder to be a dismissive asshole. You going to try to tell me that Reticent's 12 minute black metal epic The Nightmare sounds anything like something off Ghost Reveries?
3. Opeth NEVER wrote an album with a concept this intense or meaningful. The Reticent's last album was the deepest dive into different perspectives on suicide I've heard in metal or any other genre and this one does the exact same thing for Alzheimer's.
There's a million million bands out there so who gives a shit who sounds like who? No one is original not even Opeth. Is the music good? Does it actually mean something? Stop dogging one of the only bands I've seen in recent years trying to actually say something with their music.
tl;dr - stfu
