man I can't BELIEVE what I just heard, it sounds like Heavener is going to have some serious competition for my album of the year vid, currents have obliterated the way it ends with these singles imo
Heavener is going to be extremely tough to beat at least for me, only because it’s so emotionally engaging. Sure currents have a chance to outdo them musically, but goddamn have invent animate made me cry 5 times alone already this year lmao. I love both bands thoufh
Fucking congratulations for this becoming your job Drew! Amazing song by currents, somehow i've been enjoying the chorus from this releases a lot, such a vibe
just discovered your channel looking through reactions of this class album and i must say its class seeing someone display the most genuine live reaction to songs
I thought How I fall apart (the song that made me fall in love with currents) would always be my fav song of theirs. Remember Me is a masterpiece and now my fav. How you described your experience with it is far too accurate hahah
Dude, there's a new single by Like Moths to Flames coming soon, have you checked this band before? If not, i woul like to recommend to check their "No Eternity In Gold" album
I feel like with this album they are embracing that HLB inspiration with their heavier side but at the same time still keeping that melodic side they’ve always had and Brian feels more comfortable with his cleans this time around.
Props for taking it back on the breakdown. This song is top notch tbh. Beautiful chorus and some sexy chugs! Also the Remember Me x Vengeance comparison is pretty spot on
This track is very good but the problem to me about the current state of the quality of sound does not let me like it, the vocals and the mixing feel somewhat raw in the last singles in general. Otherwise i can't explain why i can't get into these last tracks at all...
As much as I love your currents reaction vids, im gonna skip this one as I promised myself to hearing everything from this album fresh and for the first time when it comes out! So see you in a couple of months my friend 🥲
But you know, I have to admit, after Currents' Remember me, the song by any bands that touched me most is Godhead by Veil of Maya. That song is something out of the world.
Interesting. I do love this song to be honest and I'm 100% sure it will rival Invent Animate, but I usually don't rly like to compare the bands between each other. If I was to rank the singles, it would be: 1) So Alone 2) Vengeance 3) The death we seek 4) Remember me.
Completely agree about Vengeance. When it dropped I was obsessed but it’s definitely my least favorite single. I go: 1. Remember Me 2. So Alone 3. The Death We Seek 4. Vengeance
@Ultra Legendary Master Curious what you are hoping for out of the album? This one might be my favorite actually. Personally I’ve really fucked with the singles besides the death we seek kinda growing old. I’m still waiting for more riffs like Split from their last album, for example.
Invent Animate and Currents have gone two completely different directions recently. I dont really think theres a direct comparison to be made at the moment
@@tyrussleightholme7261 It's a great track! The only part that really hits me is when Brian sings the outro with the melody of the chorus & the lyrics from verse 2.
Both Currents and Invent Animate are respectable in their own right, but it’s going to be very hard to beat Heavener. Currents writes fairly predictable metal, while Invent Animate is maybe predictable within their own sound…but they stand out in the metal scene. Love both bands and the community is blessed to have em
'currents write fairly predictable metal' i get what you're going for with this comment especially comparing with invent, but i disagree. i love the whole mix and sound of this album more than heavener imo but it does boil down to preference like any of these things. invent defo has a more soundscapey intricate vibe
@@joearrowsmith6813 i don’t get the “predictable music” argument. So what? If it sounds good who cares if you felt the amazing breakdown coming? Prog really screwed some people and their expectations for music up.
I feel the same! Invent Animate is doing something that's so fresh and unique I've had Heavener on repeat since it's come out. My opinion I never really got into this band and I'm not sure why
Yeah Currents needs to have better non singles to top Heavener for me. Invent almost took what old Currents did right and turned it into their unique sound with Heavener. While Currents is going for less atmosphere and more vocal focused.
@@dravenripley9468 nothing particularly wrong with that, you cant waste brians vocals on the back burner imo, chris and ryan know when to be creative and its usually not in the singles
I personally think based on the singles their direction feels a bit like a step back not forward, the singles feel a bit more basic in terms of structure and a bit less creative imo. Sure they have big breakdowns and good choruses but I liked the way it ends for being so creative
@@harryprice9132 idk where this comes from so far it sounds like a heavier the way it ends, which is clearly the point just looking at the titles of the tracks and the album art, its a lot more similar TPIFS where its gone for a darjer vibe
Invent animate has a really weak clean vocal singer. It's catchy but the Mickey mouse voice makes me laugh. If you listen close it's basically the same intro as The Death We seek. Minus the first 2 seconds. Then they put a different twist on each but same base riff for a few seconds
I find invent animates screams to be very irritating. Sounds like he’s throwing a fit in a non cool non metal way. And this songs first half was amazing but they choked the last half.
GOD DAMN THIS SLAPS
man I can't BELIEVE what I just heard, it sounds like Heavener is going to have some serious competition for my album of the year vid, currents have obliterated the way it ends with these singles imo
so maybe one for you. older Currents: Life//Lost. Have a listen or maybe reaction :)
I can’t tell you how bad I want this album
March-Invent Animate and Periphery
April-Currents
May-Sleep Token
-what a year for metal core already.
unfortunately currents is releasing on May 5th 😭
Currents in May, The Amity Affliction in May
@@im7ip May is gonna fucking slap. Brand of Sacrifice in April too
@@king_ice206 And Bury Tomorrow on Friday
@@king_ice206 damn could've sworn it was like April 28th off the top of my head😭
Remember me
The Death We Seek
So Alone
Vengeance
And this will rival Heavener, Currents never disappoint.
The only thing that could withhold this from it potentially surpassing Heavener is how high my expectations are because of The Way It Ends
@@mikeschmitz5227 heavener was such a damn good album
Heavener is going to be extremely tough to beat at least for me, only because it’s so emotionally engaging. Sure currents have a chance to outdo them musically, but goddamn have invent animate made me cry 5 times alone already this year lmao. I love both bands thoufh
@@collinsnow2203 currents is more emotionally engaging for me
And if you go to Genius you'll see the full album tracklist already which almost feels like cheating but I just couldn't help myself lol
1. The death we seek(the second verse breakdown just does something to me)
2. Remember me
3. So alone
4. Vengeance
tdws is probably my favourite currents song to date. the lyrics, the riffs, the cleans and most importantly the ridiculous breakdowns. *chefs kiss*
@@willowdoesmusic1484 beating out better days will be damn near impossible for me, but I’d say tdws is probably my second favorite
The mixing is some of the best ive heard.
That's probably the lowest Brian has gone in a Currents breakdown
he goes lower live though lol
Congrats on the full time homie 🤘🔥 get itttttttt can't wait to see what you do! love the video!
Thank you brotha🫶🏼🫶🏼
Fucking congratulations for this becoming your job Drew! Amazing song by currents, somehow i've been enjoying the chorus from this releases a lot, such a vibe
Thanks so much bro❤️
just discovered your channel looking through reactions of this class album and i must say its class seeing someone display the most genuine live reaction to songs
was cautiously nervous about the new album's overall sound, but this has allayed all suspicion for me. So pumped for the death we seek!
I can’t enjoy my day until daddy Drew does a reaction to Currents. Nice job, man! Love the the history of the singles in the beginning! Super cool!
From what i heard from the singles this album has everything to be their best album so far
Continue your work Drew hugs from Portugal man
I thought How I fall apart (the song that made me fall in love with currents) would always be my fav song of theirs. Remember Me is a masterpiece and now my fav. How you described your experience with it is far too accurate hahah
Thanks for dropping this reaction so quickly!
You're reaction was up before I opened my Spotify this morning to see my notification
I'm so damn excited for this new album.
How do they keep getting better? It's unfair! 😭
I feel like this song is just pure next level stuff from these guys. Cannot wait for that album.
A lot of Sam Carter's vibe on the cleans of Brian, this track is very good I really love it
Remember me is my favourite definitely
This album will be soo good, the singles have been sick
Dude, there's a new single by Like Moths to Flames coming soon, have you checked this band before? If not, i woul like to recommend to check their "No Eternity In Gold" album
They're slept on big time
No Eternity in Gold is a super solid album
Or their newest EP. That went so hard.
agree
The immediate stank face when Brian went low was priceless!! Awesome reaction! 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
You had the same reaction I did when I first heard it. That first chorus & 2nd verse...🤯🤯🤯
I feel like with this album they are embracing that HLB inspiration with their heavier side but at the same time still keeping that melodic side they’ve always had and Brian feels more comfortable with his cleans this time around.
Wow, just wow.
Remember Me
The Death We Seek
So Alone (Will almost guaranteed go to second or maybe first)
Vengeance
Props for taking it back on the breakdown. This song is top notch tbh. Beautiful chorus and some sexy chugs! Also the Remember Me x Vengeance comparison is pretty spot on
THEY. DO. NOT. MISS 😮💨 fucking hell Currents is god tier
I love this one! sounds very Architectsy in a way!
Right there with ya, I think this is a VERY close 2nd but remember me is still my favorite. But goddamn this is heavy
Love your reactions 🖤🖤
Huge motionless in white vibes in the chorus and I DIG IT
Just blew me away. Just fucken plug-in and feel the painful pleasure!
It’s alright at best.
Oh man Currents it's just so good man ❤
Will you release on yt the gloom in the corner reaction? 😊
Absolutely - full video(almost 2 hours) will be up likely tomorrow!
@@DrewFortune97 oh man i love you ahah thx a lot mate!
We're eating good this year.
I smell vibes "in flames" in this song.
New Invent, August, Currents and Linkin Park? Goddamn March is STACKED
His cleans in this remind me a lot of pop evil 😅
Another currents banger
the death we seek
remember me
vegeance
so alone
that's as it is right now, although i can tell so alone is gonna be a grower
Easy new favourite single
This track is very good but the problem to me about the current state of the quality of sound does not let me like it, the vocals and the mixing feel somewhat raw in the last singles in general. Otherwise i can't explain why i can't get into these last tracks at all...
Congrats on going full-time man!
Thanks bro! Going to check out your reaction now🫶🏼
@@DrewFortune97 sick! Hope you enjoy!
As much as I love your currents reaction vids, im gonna skip this one as I promised myself to hearing everything from this album fresh and for the first time when it comes out! So see you in a couple of months my friend 🥲
All good bro❤️💪🏼
I respect your self control. You won’t be disappointed hahah
But you know, I have to admit, after Currents' Remember me, the song by any bands that touched me most is Godhead by Veil of Maya. That song is something out of the world.
1. so alone
2. remember me
3. vengeance
4. the death we seek
For some reason they are in order
BEST SINGLE YET. WOOOOOOOW
song goes HARD
I THOUGHT BREAKING BENJAMIN TOO
i am just now watching this i didn't copy you in my vid i swear LMAOOOOO
Interesting. I do love this song to be honest and I'm 100% sure it will rival Invent Animate, but I usually don't rly like to compare the bands between each other. If I was to rank the singles, it would be: 1) So Alone 2) Vengeance 3) The death we seek 4) Remember me.
So Alone
Remember me
The Death We Seek
Vengeance
bahaha i love how the whole video you’re just :O
Completely agree about Vengeance. When it dropped I was obsessed but it’s definitely my least favorite single. I go:
1. Remember Me
2. So Alone
3. The Death We Seek
4. Vengeance
Clean parts are so hardly reminding me of Motionless in White, but i love the track anyway
Remember Me 9.8
The Death We Seek 9.5
So Alone 9.2
Vengeance 7
i predicted this song to be a single.
Cool story bro
Invent is definitely currents older bro lol
The death we seek
So alone
Remember me
Vengeance
It will be hard to top Heavener imo, I know currents are capable but idk
if u want more from Buster the producer
Darknet - Scanner
After listening to the singles, definitely the death we seek number 1
I love Currents to death but I’ve been so unimpressed with the similarity between the opening riffs on 3 of these 4 singles
@Ultra Legendary Master Curious what you are hoping for out of the album? This one might be my favorite actually. Personally I’ve really fucked with the singles besides the death we seek kinda growing old. I’m still waiting for more riffs like Split from their last album, for example.
Invent Animate and Currents have gone two completely different directions recently. I dont really think theres a direct comparison to be made at the moment
Single Ranking:
The Death We Seek 11/10
So Alone 10/10
Vengeance 9.5/10
Remember Me 8.5/10
Explain yourself with Remember Me 😂
@@tyrussleightholme7261 It's a great track!
The only part that really hits me is when Brian sings the outro with the melody of the chorus & the lyrics from verse 2.
This gives djenting Benjamin vibes
Dude, why do bands do this... There's gonna be like 2 songs to listen to when the album releases haha
You’re not forced to listen to the singles yk?
@@somabul4 but it's Currents 😍 how can I resist?
@@0owmjapo0 with an ungodly amount of willpower 😭
There's 6 unheard tracks at this point. And it's the band's doing. It's definitely Sharptone doing this.

invent animate is a great band , but for some reason currents is always preferable over a long distance
Personal preferences moment, i couldn't get into any of new Currents singles meanwhile i listen to Invent Animate literally every day
@@Vixfor_ I agree
A new frame change every few seconds is very distracting, and also looks a little strange, imho
I agree, won’t be doing it again
After having listened to "Heavener" all other stuff feels mediocre. Sure, new Currents is not bad, but I do not often come back to these songs.
I feel the same! Invent Animate is doing something that's so fresh and unique I've had Heavener on repeat since it's come out. My opinion I never really got into this band and I'm not sure why
Heavener is so good it makes other stuff from the genre sound mediocre. It really is an incredible release.
Yeah Currents needs to have better non singles to top Heavener for me. Invent almost took what old Currents did right and turned it into their unique sound with Heavener. While Currents is going for less atmosphere and more vocal focused.
@@dravenripley9468 nothing particularly wrong with that, you cant waste brians vocals on the back burner imo, chris and ryan know when to be creative and its usually not in the singles
Glad to hear you're full time now. Maybe you'll finally check out AVIANA. for fuck sakes.......
Idk what it is about these new singles, but none of them are hitting me like The Way It Ends did. It’s missing something big that the last album had.
I feel literally the same dude, it's something about the mixing and vocals. Feels really raw for some reason
@@Vixfor_ i think it’s that, but also the shift in riffage, less leads and less atmosphere. Feels a bit generic compared to the way it ends
Same, the only single that i really dig is remember me the others were decent imo. Hope the album turns out to be better
I personally think based on the singles their direction feels a bit like a step back not forward, the singles feel a bit more basic in terms of structure and a bit less creative imo. Sure they have big breakdowns and good choruses but I liked the way it ends for being so creative

If you listen close it's basically the same intro as The Death We seek. Minus the first 2 seconds. Then they put a different twist on each but same base riff for a few seconds
Im not gonna lie, their choruses are starting to sound a bit dull.
Currents is absolutely fucking disgusting!!!
I find invent animates screams to be very irritating. Sounds like he’s throwing a fit in a non cool non metal way. And this songs first half was amazing but they choked the last half.
Intro song bro???
Lol, is the chorus of the song reacted
