    This is the sequel to my most streamed song "Won't Be Saved," this time from the perspective of the antagonists of the story. Thank you all for your continued support. I learned a lot while making this and I could not invest as much time as I did into this song without your continued support. It seriously means the world to me. I hope you enjoy it.
    Written, performed and mixed by Michael Kupris

    Lyrics:
    Be saved my friend
    Be safe from all you fear
    Be saved my friend
    It’s freedom’s burden
    Lemme ease your hurtin
    We can feel the yearnin
    Come embrace me, feel me and be saved
    Our friend
    Embrace the will of all
    And taste the garden
    We’ll remake man’s image
    In a common visage
    And we’ll kill the wicked
    Let me open you and quench your fire
    Anima
    Hyperphagia
    Come and give your heart
    Not to serve
    But bend the world
    We'll make god of man
    Til we kill the self-hood
    Come rejoice
    Or be destroyed
    We'll make god of man, god of man
    We'll make god of man, god of man
    Campfire
    The bodies are piling up
    Come gather around at the altar of Hermes
    Prepare their world for sacrifice
    (At One)
    Once it is destroyed we’ll see the new Garden of Eden
    And Man’s new nature will be God
    Go forth with the iron hold on their mind
    Go forth with the iron hold on their trust
    And if your empathy should keep you from decision
    There is no sin in the gnos
    (At one)
    Look at this new world we made
    Now all men will know their place
    Man at the center of it all
    No more dissenters
    They died at the wall
    Now you are saved
    At one
    Now we’re all saved
    At one
    The new season
    Has missed Eden
    Remnants of faith and reason
    We must sacrifice the paradigm
    Not to serve
    But bend the world
    We'll make god of man
    Til we kill the self-hood
    Come rejoice
    Or be destroyed
    We'll make god of man, god of man
    We'll make god of man, god of man
    Children of the Ragged Heart
    Born of Steel as they fell apart
    We see your pieces
    Come be whole
    Our New World will be remade by burning the old
    Yes, the independent man
    Is estranged from who he is
    No distinctions, nothing owned
    Is when we’ll see eternal bliss
    Come along, we’ll find our home
    The aftermath of nothingness
    Come be saved
    (At One)
    Annihilate the selfhood
    In order to enter the sphere
    Where Philosophy Herself speaks
    Destruction to all who resist our desire

    Usually not the biggest prog guy, but I dig this. That riff from the last 30 seconds of the song with the pitch harmonic, is so hair metal inspired to me in the best way. Haven’t heard an old classic riff modernized like that in years . Almost Van Halen. It didn’t throw the vibe off, just made me nod my head to the fade out . Good shit mike .

    I could listen to a whole album of this kind of stuff. I don't agree with a lot of your takes on music, but you are a talented musician in your own right and I think you could offer the world something special with this kind of music.

    Okay, I know what you mean by the Opeth like tempo and rhythms with the guitar stuff. You know what though, the vocals are unique and very well put together. Opeth isn't giving us our fix so I don't particularly mind if someone else steps in on occasion to supply that sort of thing.
    Track sounds great man. The breakdown section and the way the instruments come back in together is slick. I like that.
    Its cool man. It's not all "Opethy" 😂

    Just make an album under your own name man. This is insanely good, but can't identify any opeth in this (even if it on paper has their type of riffs). As much as genres can f*ck off, your vocals moves the genre a whole lot. To something different. With that said you have an amazing voice! Everything about this is like 9/10. I believe a 10/10 would come from you not aiming to sound a certain way, but rather just let the flow move though you. You very clearly have it in you. Lotsa words! Had to say something, cheers man ☀☀

    I’ll be honest, nowadays I don’t really find myself watching guitar/metal related content as much. I used to back in the early days of college but nowadays the only ones I click on are either about bands that I like or technical videos. I really liked your recent video about making a better tone. Usually I like videos with deep incite into a topic by someone knowledgeable like yourself

    Oof the riff at 4:20 is very nice. A lot of parts had me rolling the song back to hear it again. This is nice. Great flow and it really didn't feel like 9 and a half minutes. Really like the little nuances in the vocals. Makes it really interesting. Mix is great as well.
    Only criticisms I have are the alarm clock at 6:33 which honestly made me jump a little. Not sure why it's there, doesn't do anything rhythmically and really pulled me out of the mood that was being set. That and I wish you let the leads loose a little more at the end of the song, that riff was just begging for a nice lead or solo to spread over it and you started to do that and then stopped. That's all I got though, great song otherwise and I'll be spinning this a few more times for sure.

    • @BecomeTheKnight
      @BecomeTheKnight  5 місяців тому +6

      1. The "alarm clock" (lol) was on purpose. That's all I'll say. It's contextual.
      2. I liked the ending as is but could totally see what you're saying!
      Thank you so much for both the positive and constructive feedback!

    I like this more than Crusade, tbh (kind of a lot more). I also definitely hear the Opeth inspiration, but your voice sounds so different from Mikael's that once the vocals come in in this song, I kinda forget the Opeth inspiration.

    I like the sound in general, but I hate the drums. They just sound like a machine. There are really good ides but the drums actually drag them down to mediocrity, imo. I'd like to know if the drums were programmed or really recorded and edited to death.
