this album made me cry many many times. the lyrics are almost too much at times. this album goes so so deep into the songwriters personal life it seems. feeling this much emotion in music can only mean great pain coming from the artist. i can only imagine this was a wonderful outlet of grief. thats at least how i see it.
These dudes are from Cardiff Wales my hometown, i know them personally and they are honestly so wholesome and such good musicians, I want them to blow up
I’ve been honest on Birb’s channel about this and I’ll say it here. I had a panic attack the day this album released and then I listened to it at midnight and I related to every single word from the ‘I’m Alive’ in Celebration Song to every lyric in ‘nomoreroses’ to the final note in ‘Mourning Song’ and then finishing with the cover of The Greatest Mistake Of My Life. 12/10. AOTY along with Erra for me.
@@ennessAU thank you man. I’m just pushing through and hoping I reach the end soon. This album motivated me to start fully exercising again and I feel better for it so far. Hope you’re doing well too 🤘
I haven't stopped listening to this since it came out. To me, the entire album flowed so well & I loved the lyricism. Both HA and Erra holds my AOTY title as of right now.
Beyond Belief definitely got Funeral For A Friend vibes maybe not from first album but second or third. Anyway I think too, that this album is strong contender to AOTY and my top 20 best albums of all time easily. Masterpiece in every kind of word.
This is definitely the album of the year for me. Never had an entire album hit me so hard emotionally. This is just pure emotion that they've created and that's why it's so beautiful. You can hear the pain, the happiness, everything. Just beautiful.
Aye you finally checked out one of my favourite bands Holding Absence! I ordered the box set for this album and man can I not wait to get it. I love Lucas and the rest of the guys in this band. Drugs And Love is definitely my favourite but this whole album is beautiful
I have to thank you! I found so many great bands because of your reactions. This band, Imminence, Erra. Thank! You! Edit: AOTY contender for sure. Thought it will be Erra. But THIS is something else
Weird to say, but this ablum gave me SCREAMWORKS by HIM vibes, but in a, obviously, more metalcore side. Loved it, keep on going back to it from time to time.
@@ennessAU holding absence is very post hardcore...but wolves at the gate have that metalcore side in their meterials.... Really really stoked for their next realeas...last one was fantastic
Please react to The Armeds new full lenght album ULTRAPOP, its black metal, the killers and hardcore all in one and some more! Really worth a checkout tbh
I'm a metalcore fanatic but man, Holding Absence is one of my favorite bands by far.
Same here, this band is amazing
I'm trying to get into them, I find them too chill though.
These guys and Starset, i even like deathcore but these 2 are on another level
@@georgeantonioandrei8570 Give Dead by April a try.
@@spitz5183 Oh I know them. They're pretty good. Maybe I should focus more on the lyrics than on the instrumental when I listen to Holding Absence.

They definitely deserve more recognition! Discovering them this year was an amazing thing that happened to me 😃
Im glad you did this, a huge AOTY contender.

The greatest album in my life

Coming back after their UK tour to say goddamn Lucas has improved so much live since Self titled. See them live
Wasn't expecting you to read to this album. So glad you did! This band is so so great
AOTY, Lucas is such a phenomenal vocalist. Great band!
I really appreciate you giving this a listen. Such a great album that I'll come back to for years to come.
This album is a masterpiece, i love it
this is one of my albums of the year right now. it’s incredible
Yo This album Is Insane!! i really love Curse me with your kiss + Beyond Belief and Die Alone... and In Circle too
i never listened to this band before but this is one of my top albums of the year
Beyond Belief reminds me a lot of The Adventure by Angels and Airwaves tbh
Aye you finally checked out one of my favourite bands Holding Absence! I ordered the box set for this album and man can I not wait to get it. I love Lucas and the rest of the guys in this band. Drugs And Love is definitely my favourite but this whole album is beautiful
Afterlife is my favorite song off of the album by far.
HE DID IT
AOTY contender for sure
absolutely
So glad more people are discovering this band! AOTY for sure, they're so good!
Solid album. I love how the songs are aggressive and hit hard, yet at the same time so mellow and soft.
I have to thank you! I found so many great bands because of your reactions. This band, Imminence, Erra.
Thank! You!
Edit: AOTY contender for sure.
Thought it will be Erra. But THIS is something else
I liked this album I got hella dayseeker vibes from it
I can truly say this is the best album I listened to in 42 years.
My AOTY so far with ERRA right behind at #2. Idk how anything tops either of those albums for the rest year for me personally
Nomoreroses, is beautiful, but Morning song is sublime...
Never heard of this band. Now i love them. Amazing album. Thank you 🙂🤟
Finally you react to holding absence! You should check out their debut album too. That's truly masterpiece ☺
Weird to say, but this ablum gave me SCREAMWORKS by HIM vibes, but in a, obviously, more metalcore side. Loved it, keep on going back to it from time to time.
definitely album of the year for me. The emotion in the album is exceptional ❤️
It's all I've been listening to since it came out. I already know all the songs.
Such a beautiful record.
My favorite band, you should check their previous album!
god i fucking love this album. my favourite is Curse Me With Your Kiss that you didn’t like haha
This is my AOTY, easily
Incredible album
Whoa! This album is so dope! 🔥🤘🏼
wish everyone could make that kind of amazing albums
Man I fucking love this album..
Yeah, this album surpassed Lost in the Waves by LANDMVRKS for AOTY for me
Lucas 💙💙💙
If you like go for wolves at the gate....really similar style ..but a little heavier
honestly when I read this comment I was like what the fuck they're so different, but they're actually really similar now I think about it!
@@ennessAU holding absence is very post hardcore...but wolves at the gate have that metalcore side in their meterials....
Really really stoked for their next realeas...last one was fantastic
This album is my AOTY but it makes me so sad
Soooo, you gonna react to the new Katahdin!?!?!?
As a big fan
You gotta react to “You are everything” by them
I second this. That song is incredible.
Hail the Sun - New Age Filth .....AOTY contender!!!
Katadihn releases three new song you gotta check them out man they are bangers
HEY CHECK OUT HAIL THE SUN’S NEW AGE FILTH I THINK U MAY VIBE W IT
Please react to The Armeds new full lenght album ULTRAPOP, its black metal, the killers and hardcore all in one and some more! Really worth a checkout tbh
You should react to the Wilt by this guy's
Close second Aoty of course landmvrks is the aoty imo.
They have since switched.
