Because he’s not a trend follower doing all of the excessive gutturals and snarls in breakdowns like Lorna shore or brand of sacrifice 🤷🏻♂️ but that’s what the kids are into these days
As much as Will Ramos is a great vocalist, I completely agree with this statement. He is significantly underrated and after seeing Lorna Shore live, I was bitterly disappointed in the quality of their live sound. I saw Tom live with Chelsea Grin and he was just fucking unreal. The quality difference was substantial. Too many people sit on trends and follow the herd. I think Tom has a very distinctive and unique voice, there is so much grit and bite to his vocal range. Would love Darko to perform live sometime, would easily go over to the States for it.
If you've ever heard him live then you know this to be fact. Dude is so slept on, still best live vocalist out there. Those nasty fuckin'choppy highs and his transition into the disgusting lows-fuxkimg savage dude
Less people in the band makes you more lean and effective. Bands are out dated. Rock is the only genre holding onto this antiqued music structure. Darko is proof of that in metal.
They just keep cranking out banger after banger, they're fuckin animals! Lol josh, in an interview, said he was inspired by some of the new rappers how they can pump out multiple albums a year and how those albums have like 30-40 songs and he wants to push for that with Darko! It's so fuckin awesome
They want people to keep listening to their music, because after an month of listening to oni or dethmask pt 2, you definitely want something new, we want something new, so Josh understand that, making us fans spoiled with good music 😭
Most everything low he does sounds like a guttural/false chord hybrid. Can definitely hear the pocket of resonance being shaped by his tongue pulling back into his throat to create that “gurgle,” but it almost sounds like he’s literally projecting a false chord overlay around the constriction used to make the guttural sound. Very reminiscent of how I pull off my Alex Terrible-type lows, but I never would have thought to throw a squeal into the mix. Tom’s insane man.
Every time I listen to “Praise The Sun” and the part where he screams “I cannot die” comes, I get some crazy chills. The vocal performance in that song is top notch
I dunno why but Spite never really grabbed me. I woulda rather baby J stay in Emmure than leave for spite. Either way, Darko should be the MAIN project!
Looking Glass gets me everytime. It's very heavy but the lyrics and synths almost tear me up everytime. Got me trough my depression, and still life's not easy.
Tom and Baby J bringing some of the heaviest/grooviest jams for us to enjoy....and CaliberTV with the nod, going to be AMAZING. Thanks guys! EDIT: The last 90 sec of Praise the Sun…holy shit. 🤘
Here I am again. I'm here at least twice a day to listen to this beautiful, disgusting madness. The best goddamn 8:14 on the internet... Fantastic driving music btw...
Legend has it, you'll never see baby j and the guitarist in the same room at the same time 🤣🤣 soooo much talent between Tom and Josh! This is amazing! Been a big fan of both youse for like 10 yrs or so! Cant fuckin wait for the new album! Y'all just keep cranking out banger after banger!
This is insane. Darko dominating the whole scene. And they have have the balls to release an album next month?? Correct me if I'm wrong tho. Huge props to Darko and Caliber for this amazing video 🔥
To see and hear that insane vocalpart of "Praise The Sun" is downright jawdropping. I've got this song on repeat almost 24/7 and I never get used to that part it gives me chills down my spine every single time. But to see that with your own eyes, good lord is that amazing!
This guy is honestly one of the best metal vocalists of this generation and even before if I might say… his range and clarity is unmatched, I don’t know how they aren’t more popular than they are… it makes me sick!!!
This is definitely G00d for Business 😂🙏🏼😈 What an absolutely amazing performance! I’ve already watched this four times back to back! I can’t get enough!
Holy fuck I just opened up UA-cam and that was the first thing I saw on my feed!!! Oh I never jumped to click anything that fast in my life hahaha I can't fucking wait!
I want to see Baby J and Buster Odeholm of Vildjarta and HLB make an EP together. Two left handed drummers that also play guitar upside down, and both love making wacky noises. I feel that would be a fire EP.
@7:30 IS HE REALLY OBTAINING THAT SQUEAL WITH AN OPEN MOUTH TECHNIQUE!? jeeeesus and not only that but near the end of it he wraps it up with what almost sounds legit layered. Swear Tom has alllways been on another level🤘
@@grisswald17 oh shit I just went and looked! I totally missed that -_- but hell yeah all good songs but I feel there ARE better options, but I'm just happy af to get any Darko content at all
I’ve watched this like 30 times and just noticed y’all matched the lighting to the album of the song played. Audio quality is superb as usual. Y’all are A1
Looking Glass instantly sends me into full goblin mode. It seems like their Deathmask series is a way for the guys to maintain a baseline, but I REALLY want more Oni. Super fresh for what's generally a pretty stagnant genre.
I keep coming back to this performance, holy shit. These two are SO tight, the mixing is perfect and the camerawork really sets itself apart from most studio sessions. Incredible work.
Finally a metal artist that realizes that having fewer members is better. This is part of why every other genre has been dominating rock for decades. Rap, edm, country, pop, etc have fewer members or are completely solo acts. Bands are a thing of the past. Just as the electric guitar made full bands (20-40 members) obsolete at the start of last century, so has DAWs and backing tracks to 3-8 person bands. The more people you have, the harder it is to bite the initial overhead of touring and production. Also less morons getting in the way and being dead weight. If you want the live sound, hire a touring band once you can afford it. No reason to add this cost when you’re starting out, or during the writing process. Glad Darko is taking a note from SoundCloud. Other bands will hopefully follow suit.

Veil Of Maya

LANDMVRKS please
Infant Annihilator 💀
I don’t understand why Tom is never in discussions of best current vocalists. He’s absurd with how consistently insane he is.
Natural talent
Probably because he tends to not do whatever is currently popular in the scene and does his own thing. Dude rips
Because he’s not a trend follower doing all of the excessive gutturals and snarls in breakdowns like Lorna shore or brand of sacrifice 🤷🏻♂️ but that’s what the kids are into these days
Im not sure what discussions you are going to. People give him his flowers all of the time deservedly.
As much as Will Ramos is a great vocalist, I completely agree with this statement. He is significantly underrated and after seeing Lorna Shore live, I was bitterly disappointed in the quality of their live sound. I saw Tom live with Chelsea Grin and he was just fucking unreal.

The upside down 9 string gets me every time.
Hes the epitome of get g00d
It's so funny but somehow just makes sense for these guys. I don't expect anything less
its like the metal hendrix !
@@ADHDxDahveed Except Hendrix had the strings reversed so he could actually play chords. This is strange af!
Dude i honestly didint notice wtf thats wild
Is it me or does Tom sound even better recorded live?
Agree!
How else could you record them?
I saw CG September 2022 and Tom was amazing and incredibly nice.
Tom is the best out there right now
If you've ever heard him live then you know this to be fact. Dude is so slept on, still best live vocalist out there. Those nasty fuckin'choppy highs and his transition into the disgusting lows-fuxkimg savage dude
I like how he uses different vocal styles for Darko and Chelsea Grin.
I agree! This is also vastly different from his Lorna Shore days, which are also amazing!
I was just thinking that bro shits 🔥🔥🔥
Brooo yes. Every time I listen to both I think this. He’s talented af
Super talented
@@NicShadowjensen damn bro we have the same last name
Darko: Drops new album. Drops new ep.
Also Darko: oh by the way more music soon.
It’s mind blowing what these two have done together.
The perks of being independent, you can release music whenever you want rather than having it sit in the pipeline for over a year.
Less people in the band makes you more lean and effective. Bands are out dated. Rock is the only genre holding onto this antiqued music structure.
Darko is proof of that in metal.
not to mention the 2 albums Chelsea grin are dropping/dropped
They just keep cranking out banger after banger, they're fuckin animals! Lol josh, in an interview, said he was inspired by some of the new rappers how they can pump out multiple albums a year and how those albums have like 30-40 songs and he wants to push for that with Darko!

Underrated element of this vid is how the camera work on Tom Barber is chaotic and the stuff on Baby J is mostly controlled and smooth. Great contrast
Thank you 🙏🏼
We're just gonna gloss over him banging it out in a Bass Pro hat he has on too? Fucking great!.
4:34 this scream got me flabbergasted, its like a guttural but also a whistle high, so sick
I believe it is some form of pig squeal. Its not the traditional 'ree ree' pig squeal but I bet hes using the same technique
LIT🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@Kaboose93 yeah it's a piggy but just in a more guttural form. I do them a lot.
Sounds like feedback from stuffing the mic down his neck
Most everything low he does sounds like a guttural/false chord hybrid. Can definitely hear the pocket of resonance being shaped by his tongue pulling back into his throat to create that “gurgle,” but it almost sounds like he’s literally projecting a false chord overlay around the constriction used to make the guttural sound. Very reminiscent of how I pull off my Alex Terrible-type lows, but I never would have thought to throw a squeal into the mix. Tom’s insane man.
anyone else here for the 20th time already? this is fucking beautiful
6:52 to 7:38 is the most god tiered vocals i have heard in my 40 years of existing on this god forsaken planet.
Immortal Disfigurement - dragged through the inferno. Listen to the end
@@jasonfrancis3264I’m a sucker for Phil Bozemans Unanswered performance
I, Shapeshifter has the sickest vocals rn for me
Angel splitter and Nilist is fye too
Wow. Tom is next level.
Fit For An Autopsy live sessions are insane as well.
I’ve never clicked a notification bell faster in my LIFE
Same
Same
Im with yall!
Same.
Samezies
Every time I listen to “Praise The Sun” and the part where he screams “I cannot die” comes, I get some crazy chills. The vocal performance in that song is top notch
this and also love the reference to funeral moon with the same sentence and enunciation
@@xlDarKy glad someone noticed this, finally
"Left alive, I can not die" is also on Fvneral Moon by Lorna Shore. A nice little call back he did 🤘🏼
@@RedBeardMortis this is what we were talking about here :D
@@hanex9522 my bad lol
This dude is actually insane on the mic. Broski running the chunes is just as wild wtf
babe wake up new DARKO US-In-studio performance just dropped
i love all the fromsoftware references in their music "get good", "praise the sun", "rosaria's fingers". so fire
Thought the same thing myself!
Don’t forget pale tongue
Including looking glass, dragon chaser, oni, dragon chaser and pale tongue...
@@jonathanboland7962 you forgot dragon chaser
I don't understand those references can anybody explain it to me maybe?
Would love a small documentary of these guys, in studio/recording/touring etc.. whatever, anything.
Tom is painfully underrated. This man deserves so much more respect. He is easily one of the best vocalists in modern metal
Him and also Devin from worm shepherd
That is the most severe mic cupping I have ever seen
@@sqlb3rn who gives a fuck
@@raylador1900 every audio engineer who has to record these dudes or run their sound for live shows.
Praise the Sun easily one of the heaviest songs I've ever heard
Left alive, I cannot die. 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Check out Fractalize, Darko US is very similar to them but no vocals.
Archspire is also a good listen, if ur looking for heavy
The Miller Brothers killing it on guitars and drums... Tom was, is and will forever be a monster on vocals...
@@pgrimmygrimm r/woosh
@@pgrimmygrimm yikes...
@@pgrimmygrimm I gonna just head out....
We need a tour, a world tour. CG & Spite are awesome but Darko US is god-tier !
Who's CG? I would live to know cuz I love darko n spite
@@pgrimmygrimm Chelsea Grin
I dunno why but Spite never really grabbed me. I woulda rather baby J stay in Emmure than leave for spite. Either way, Darko should be the MAIN project!
@@DamnMascus ah, oh yea duh
@@Rob_Cary Yea im not really into spite, but id go to a chelsea grin/spite tour with Tom and Josh doing Darko on the side
I can’t listen to Get G00D w/o having Looking Glass next in queue ever since this came out.
Looking Glass gets me everytime. It's very heavy but the lyrics and synths almost tear me up everytime. Got me trough my depression, and still life's not easy.
Amen never give up!
Gets me too! Try to see the uplifting side. Keep shredding my brothers 🤟🏻♥️
for real! i feel like the synth tones with the chugs make this song really unique.
Your not alone there bro 🤟 head up and banging
It's been a while but I hope you're good broham. And yes this shit fucks!
Back for my 9000th listen.
Toms signature megaphone scream is goated. I can’t get enough of it.
Are you talking about his high or his low? He has a couple signatures imo haha
@@WoeIsJesse I'm assuming he's talking Tom's "darko mids/lows".
@@WoeIsJesse frog + megaphone = Tom signature
Tom came back and said "Lorna Shore? Immortal Disfigurement? WHAT ARE THOSE?!" ❤
5:48 "Bring me their shoes!"
Tom and Baby J bringing some of the heaviest/grooviest jams for us to enjoy....and CaliberTV with the nod, going to be AMAZING. Thanks guys!
EDIT: The last 90 sec of Praise the Sun…holy shit. 🤘
Må vær det besta som he skjedd innen death core EVER!!! VA d någe som kom godt ud av covid19, så va d f... dette!💀🤘💀🤘
When tom says "eeeee" my brain releases so much fuxking dopamine
This whole set is ridiculous...but looking glass omfg. GOD TIER SHIT.🔥🔥🔥
Here I am again. I'm here at least twice a day to listen to this beautiful, disgusting madness. The best goddamn 8:14 on the internet...
Fantastic driving music btw...
Thanks! Your spirit lifted the court room today.
We appreciate it 🙏🏼👨⚖️
Hearing Praise the Sun Live is something UNREAL, I'd pay for a 40min video of a set for this!
That T-Mac Raptors jersey is fire.
I love that all 3 songs are Dark Souls references
Tom’s vocals and his technicality is insane. He shifts from one vocal technique to another and keeping up the flow of the track is just godly 🙏🏼
I love how they're both just vibing.
Darko is probably one of the sickest metal projects out right now
i agree
Don't mind me. Just back for my daily listen
Legend has it, you'll never see baby j and the guitarist in the same room at the same time 🤣🤣 soooo much talent between Tom and Josh! This is amazing! Been a big fan of both youse for like 10 yrs or so! Cant fuckin wait for the new album! Y'all just keep cranking out banger after banger!
Spent the past year watching Chelsea Grin - Hostage live at the warped tour video 10000 times. Now it's time to rinse this 10000 times. Incredible
I keep rewatching those screams at the end lol
This is insane. Darko dominating the whole scene. And they have have the balls to release an album next month?? Correct me if I'm wrong tho. Huge props to Darko and Caliber for this amazing video 🔥
They're in the studio next month! Album is late summer I think
@@Mypeenorhurt Already!?!?!
They're gonna start recording the new album next month and then hopefully release it sometime in the summer.
@@NealBones yeah Josh Miller said something about new music on Nik Nocs live stream
Tom: How can we release music faster than a SoundCloud rapper?
Baby J: *turns 9 string upside down*
7:06 legit had goosebumps watching this!!! This gets me so hyped for a live show sometime soon 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
To see and hear that insane vocalpart of "Praise The Sun" is downright jawdropping. I've got this song on repeat almost 24/7 and I never get used to that part it gives me chills down my spine every single time. But to see that with your own eyes, good lord is that amazing!
WE NEED A DARKO TOUR
This guy is honestly one of the best metal vocalists of this generation and even before if I might say… his range and clarity is unmatched, I don’t know how they aren’t more popular than they are… it makes me sick!!!
Back here, watching for about the 100th time 😂😂😂🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
T-Mac jersey gave him the powers he needed
Didn't realize get g00d existed, I'm mad as hell it's as short as it is
Listen to the EP it's, immediately followed by dethmask, fucking bangers
@Oisin Carey I know about the project, got a few faves. Just kinda tunnel visioned that song out lol but hell yeah they're bangers
WE NEED A FULL FUCKING SET. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY SLAPFUCK INCREDIBLE
That Raptors jersey goes hard
Easily one of the best vocalists out there
This is definitely G00d for Business 😂🙏🏼😈
What an absolutely amazing performance! I’ve already watched this four times back to back! I can’t get enough!
Same. I have watched it at least 3 x a day if not more. But morning, noon and before bed. Lolol!😂
IN fuckn SANE!! Transitions between songs were dope af too.
Praise the Sun is one of my favs, it sounded amazing, and funny enough it's been one of my morning alarm clock songs XD
Tom will always be my favorite deathcore vocalist. His work in Eternal Nightmare got me hooked to the genre lol
He is so distinct between Darko and Chelsea and that is mad class bro! Fucking love it!
Вы крутые, талантливые ребята. Не прекращайте делать то, что делаете. Один из любимых треков looking glass.
Jammed this this whole vid on shrooms through my oculus headset. Let me tell you.....🎉😎🤘
Thats a vibe right there! I have the possibility to get both of those ingredients O.O , thanks for the tip.
Tom is so goated....geezus fuck! What a vocalist!
Best deathcore band in the business and its not even that close.
Holy fuck I just opened up UA-cam and that was the first thing I saw on my feed!!! Oh I never jumped to click anything that fast in my life hahaha I can't fucking wait!
It was so fun in the chat! Thank you again for these! 🫶🏻
Thank you for joining us for the premiere 🙏🏼
I fucking LOVE DARKO
Just started listening to Deathcore, I'm at over 250 songs this week and Oni is my favorite album so far, loving Darko
Fuck yeah dude, if you love this ridiculous down tuned guitar shit I'd highly recommend vildhjarta or reflections
@@Jefftarnish good on you for suggesting the Prog Deathcore/Djent classics to someone that just got into Deathcore lol
fucking love Vildhjarta
You could check out To The Grave from Australia, they'll rock ur socks off mate

I want to see Baby J and Buster Odeholm of Vildjarta and HLB make an EP together. Two left handed drummers that also play guitar upside down, and both love making wacky noises. I feel that would be a fire EP.
That's a fuvking sick idea!
I can honestly say I have listened to this set at least 3 times every day since it dropped.
BABE WAKE UP DARKO DROPPED!!!!
@7:30 IS HE REALLY OBTAINING THAT SQUEAL WITH AN OPEN MOUTH TECHNIQUE!? jeeeesus and not only that but near the end of it he wraps it up with what almost sounds legit layered. Swear Tom has alllways been on another level🤘
Pretty sure you curl your tongue up on your alveolar ridge on the roof of your mouth to do that, like you do for a pig squeal.
4:33 absolute chills
It's amazing how their guitarist and drummer look so similar but never appear in the same shot.
bro why are the opening lyrics of get g00d so fucking funny to me lmaoo and just the way tom said it this time makes it so much better 😂😂
Best music ever recorded.
Love these live takes.. prefer his vocal choices in these...thank you.
Darko is my favorite band.
Bro, Tom, Josh and the lads in Caliber are the most lethal humans in music today.
One of my most listened to bands last year. Still rocking them.
Why isn’t this man being hyped more? Tom your amazing. My absolute favorite of all. ❤
OMFG......I cannot wait for this. Need more Darko 🤘 🤘 🤘 🤘 🤘
If R.T.G.O.B, Pretenders and The fly and the bee is on here I'm gonna die ☠️
Fuckin YES to all of them and more!! Hahaha Im so fuckin excited for this!
It’s Get Gud, Looking Glass, Praise the Sun
yeah it literally says the 3 songs being played in the description lol
@@grisswald17 oh shit I just went and looked! I totally missed that -_- but hell yeah all good songs but I feel there ARE better options, but I'm just happy af to get any Darko content at all
I like your taste, those are my favorite tracks on their respective releases \m/
Sound quality on this is so much better than original
I’ve watched this like 30 times and just noticed y’all matched the lighting to the album of the song played. Audio quality is superb as usual. Y’all are A1
the duo deathcore needed, ive been following both these dudes and their other bands for sometime now, this shits incredible
also watching this is now a daily ritual
That Praise The Sun ending is the best piece of deathcore I have heard all year.
I've been waiting for this style for fuckin 12 years bro thank u josh n tom fuckin right
repeat all day
Looking Glass instantly sends me into full goblin mode. It seems like their Deathmask series is a way for the guys to maintain a baseline, but I REALLY want more Oni. Super fresh for what's generally a pretty stagnant genre.
Darko Setlist:
Splinter Cell
Dragon Chaser
Mars Attack
Donna
FUTURE DOOM
Ana
Pale Tongue
Acid Inject
THE FLY AND THE BEE
Encore: Insect
nah start with get g00d thats the perfect opener!
Evolving....
Gotta have the last of us on there and whatever the first song they ever came out with was called. The one with the spite guy.
This is the best live performance I’ve ever seen. Tom and baby are just next level duo.
I keep coming back to this performance, holy shit. These two are SO tight, the mixing is perfect and the camerawork really sets itself apart from most studio sessions. Incredible work.
Knew it! Baby J has a clone! There's no way one guy is playing everything. Pretty sure he's also wearing Tom's face as a mask to do vocals.
LMAO underrated comment
@@RowdyChocolateOfficial He's wearing a DETHMASK
Tom's voice is stupid. He's EASILY in my top 5 metal vocalists for sure, and I feel like he keeps getting better.
Praise the sun!🔥
hrno no puedo superar este live session, los pelos de punta cada vez que lo escucho, aguante DARKO!
Tom is on different level than other deathcore singer, using simple technique, and he mature it like he own it now. my favorite !
so glad they did looking glass and praise the sun, two of my favorites
Darko US🖤
Looking Glass has the most harmonic meralcor I’ve heard… Makes you wanna bounce your head like a hip hop song. So DOPE!!
This needs more views...
The energy Tom and Josh bring is fuckin electric, Darko kicks ass. And for uploading this, you do too Caliber!
Raptors jersey is fresh as fuck. Vince Carter is the man!
Much respect from Woodstock Ontario Canada!
I listen to Darko 5 days a week at work.
does tom barber ever sleep? this man has been putting out good music like crazy. baby J too like damn he's a monster coming up with all these bangers
Finally a metal artist that realizes that having fewer members is better. This is part of why every other genre has been dominating rock for decades.
Rap, edm, country, pop, etc have fewer members or are completely solo acts. Bands are a thing of the past. Just as the electric guitar made full bands (20-40 members) obsolete at the start of last century, so has DAWs and backing tracks to 3-8 person bands. The more people you have, the harder it is to bite the initial overhead of touring and production. Also less morons getting in the way and being dead weight. If you want the live sound, hire a touring band once you can afford it. No reason to add this cost when you’re starting out, or during the writing process.
Glad Darko is taking a note from SoundCloud. Other bands will hopefully follow suit.
