@@willybumbum507 he sure is an awesome drummer, and i get what they were going for, but there is a backing track playing along with those DnB hi hats that Nic isnt playing which i think is a bit edgy
I have to say that he's been slowing down this past albums, you listen to Masquerade, Dream Awake, Scarab, dam that was his best, i love what the band have been doing, I love it the smooth Nick in Node, but now in Alien he doesn't sound more o even more tech than the rest, back in time Nick drums was insane, now still but in a different way..
Cameron Neal he was lead vocalist for a band called Structures on their last album. previous albums he was their guitarist. incredibly talented dude. check out ‘life through a window’ by structures. it’s him on vocals.
nolly mixes this and hes amazing! (ex bassist for periphery) him and misha were the ones to mix for periphery and they know what they are doing for sure
as a guitar player, (and musician), I think it's cool that he play the launchpad live, but still, I feel they are missing the sonic power of the 2 wall of guitars. It's strange he want this way, since it's very easy to program and play in sync with the metronome wich they obviusly use.
@@F.guitar82 I sorta get what you're saying, it's especially clear in live sessions like this that something is a little "lacking" but... I also kind of like it? It's different, makes the whole composition feel more airy, giving each instrument and sound more space to breathe and get noticed. Think it fits this band pretty well, their whole concept and style of writing might be what lets them pull it off so well imo.
@@Fiendir From the standpoint that way too many bands just play with a pre-programmed backing track, I think it’s cool to have the samples actually played in real time. Throws off a real 80’s hip hop vibe.
@@borogove Yeah, because it's not quite his range; he takes those high notes with a great difficulty, it's apparent. Great range means that you can not only take certain notes, but also take them with relative ease, and it's not the case here. Other than that, a pretty good vocalist, and his extreme vocals are great
@@krauser_ What I meant was his stylistic range. Take the first clean notes for example, at 1:08 ("Someone just like me..." That G# ("me") is clearly not out of his vocal range - it's not even the highest note of the phrase - but it sounds really flat to me..maybe it's because he just switched from yelling to clean at that point. He's trying to use a great variety of vocal styles and I think he does a great job but I'd prefer if he was a tiny bit less ambitious about mixing contrasting styles and would focus a bit more on sounding relaxed. Of course that's a general problem of the genre. And you're right about the high notes too, though they're probably aware of that as they partially use tons of reverb to cover that up.
This is one of the most impressive like a versions of all time. Marcus, just pat yourself on the back man. You are one of the best vocalists in all of metal.
toyotaecw I dunno man, lots of years of cleans then immediate dirties and full on screaming, the only person I’ve really seen nail it every time is Chester from linkin park
Northlane is flawless. This track speaks to on so many levels, the band created something truly special with Alien. Marcus was the perfect replacement for Adrian and he has truly lifted them to different heights with his vocal range.
Be careful, the Adrian fanboys will come out in full force if you speak negatively about their God. However, you're exactly right. In my opinion, Marcus is SOOO much better than Adrian. Much better singing voice and a killer screamer who gets better and better every release.
Levi Lively Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE Adrian but Marcus is definitely my preferred vocalist. He brought them a new style and made them explore. Would love to see Adrian to come back and feature on a track one day, that’d be cool.
Marcus is one of the best modern singers right now. Dan Tompkins level.
2 роки тому+1
Took me a while to adapt to Marcus but I fell in love with his vocals. Adrian's low growls are still one of the best I've heard from any vocalist though, in terms of how unique it sounds. I think his delivery plays a big part in that also.
Marcus has some of the best vocals in the game. I’d love to see a collab with Northlane and Architects. Some of the two most distinct voices in the genre together would be immaculate.
I'll never understand the 'the old singer was better' comments for anything other than nostalgia, because the old singer couldn't 'sing'. Marcus can do it all. They're a better band with him. Just like The Contortionist are a better band now with Michael Lessard
I used to watch Brendon with Structures all the time in Toronto. I'm so glad he's in Northlane now. He's got such a sick voice and I'm excited to hear his vocal contributions going forward.
i feel like adding brendon to the lineup has made them even better and more unique, i totally dig the new sound and i am really looking forward to where northlane will go musically
This song is super balanced and is super heavy without being dull and I think it takes massive talent to write something like this. I listen to a lot of metal and I recently discovered Northlane and they’re a fresh change I love them. The vocals and synth backing just has this edge I can’t explain it. If I had a band, I’d like it to be like this.
That was absolutely incredible! I’ve been a Northlane fan for about 5 years now and after seeing them live a few weeks back at Penrith they’ve quickly become my favourite band. They’re just so damn good!
woah I amazed by how good Marcus is live... These vocals are extremely hard to pull out damn :O and the band in general so good!! please come to england SOOOOOOON
@@TheVirtualLab i feel like the chorus on the studio is cleaner, however as someone who can't bring their voice that high at all, I have to give him props
I think I speak for the entire metal community when I say thank you for promoting newer and younger bands. As oppose to other youtube channels like Rockfeed or Loudwire that will make an entire video about Corey Taylor sneezing.
Every person in Northlane stands out. It’s insane. Normally, you’d maybe only focus on the vocalist or drummer, but here you’re looking at everyone. One of my all time fav bands! Stay rocking guys! 🤘🤘👍👍
They sound like where Linkin Park could have been had they went and stayed the course and organically grew rather than rushing to change. They could have organically changed into something like this that would have made them be remembered with an even stronger impression.
@@antdujar yeah I know the last album they did was straight up pop music, but there previous album was actually pretty hard and I thought it was them at their best
Sounds like a song that would've been on Shaun Palmer's Pro Snowboarder, or Wipeout 64, haha. Getting some nostalgic nu metal/industrial/electronic vibes. Also some Chester Bennington vibes from his vocals.
I can see Marcus pushing himself to his limit with every album. That has to be acknowledged. Also Jon’s soundscapes and samples have completely breathed new life into northlane. Node was a transitioning period but now it feels more focused than ever before
I remember seeing them in Melbourne recently. High asf and my eyebrow bleeding from the Counteparts set and when this song came on it was such a euphoric moment
Marcus's vocals are on point, even live! The man has some serious vocal skills! The band is also flawless. Electric show live at kings beach tavern. Cannot wait to see them again!!
I think Triple J needs to support bands that are their peak in their genre regardless of commercial appeal. Just showcase these people that are the best at what they do, and celebrate that they are Australian.
Northlane have always been some of my favourites but Alien is in my top 5 albums of all time! You are all so amazing and the new album is so unique and I know it was probably hard to sing about some of these things Marcus however I want you to know on my and probs all the Northlane fam’s behalf that this is incredible and you are so brave for doing it! You are truly an inspiration for the whole generation and beyond!
Knew Obelisk and Bloodline before I saw them live, immediately bought Alien after their set and now they’re one of my top 3 favorite bands. Whole band is incredible
By design a lot of their newer music is a wall of noise. It's so awesome to see a pro shot studio version of this so we can see the details. Unreal to see everything Jon adds to it
![Northlane - Dante [Official Music Video]](/img/n.gif)
This dude is such a vocal monster
He's definitely sick. But I miss Adrian.
Most def. Marcus has improved so much, and he was already so good when he joined Northlane.
@@xenophagia Yes, Adrian was a much better screamer. No offense to Marcus
Don’t forget Nic is an amazing drummer him,Jonathan Boulet and Dan Kirby are my favourite drummers from aus
@@willybumbum507 he sure is an awesome drummer, and i get what they were going for, but there is a backing track playing along with those DnB hi hats that Nic isnt playing which i think is a bit edgy
Would love to see more metal and hardcore artists on Triple J.
100%
It’s what it was in the good old days... then all the other crap took over
@@chrismccarthy640 yeah that's why I stopped listening
This times a billion
Listen to the racket at 10pm Tuesdays and short fast loud 10pm Wednesdays
Let's all take a moment to appreciate Nic's drumming
Joseph Bastidas the drums play Nic he’s that good
dude's a cert beast
Even does all the electronic stuff live
I have to say that he's been slowing down this past albums, you listen to Masquerade, Dream Awake, Scarab, dam that was his best, i love what the band have been doing, I love it the smooth Nick in Node, but now in Alien he doesn't sound more o even more tech than the rest, back in time Nick drums was insane, now still but in a different way..
Why is nobody talking about the bassist’s vocals?
Cameron Neal he was lead vocalist for a band called Structures on their last album. previous albums he was their guitarist. incredibly talented dude. check out ‘life through a window’ by structures. it’s him on vocals.
//pariah not to mention the guest appearance Adrian did on that album
Daniel Johnstone true! love that album so much
Just checked out structures the guys a beast.
Brendon is seriously such an amazing, nice. and talented dude. I miss structures so much but so glad to see him out in the music scene again.
Northlane will be one of those bands that i listen to for the rest of my life, Marcus has progressed so much since he joined.
Yeah absolutely, i think he's found his sound now where the early stuff was just experimenting in a way
Agreed!
One of the best band ever
facts
Northlane for life!
Triple J, whoever mixed this needs a raise and to be inducted into some sort of Hall of fame, Jesus Christ.
Triple J's Sound engineers have been on point this year
It's very good but not Hall of fame good
Really great sound I agree bro
nolly mixes this and hes amazing! (ex bassist for periphery) him and misha were the ones to mix for periphery and they know what they are doing for sure
@@seansmith8495 Nolly mixed the Album, not this particular performance
as a launchpad player, that is a legit push and play basing in the pad patterns. huge props playing it live and not faking it.
I've seen the setup up close and you are right. He's got a bunch of software synths on the laptop that it is controlling.
What kind of launchpad is that?? I need to know please...
as a guitar player, (and musician), I think it's cool that he play the launchpad live, but still, I feel they are missing the sonic power of the 2 wall of guitars. It's strange he want this way, since it's very easy to program and play in sync with the metronome wich they obviusly use.

So fucking sickkk!!
Legends supporting legends... 🤘
Cover this matt
northlane on triple j is an unexpected but ENTIRELY welcome surprise.
Not that unexpected... triple j played northlane back when Adrian was in the band
Is it really? Northlane are as normiecore as you can get
Nice Goat pfp
The vocalist and the bassist´s vocals go along so wellllllllllllllll
what kind of range do you have, Marcus?
Marcus: yes
151 people need to hold their breath forever.
*PANDIMENSIONAL HUMMING INTENSIFIES*
I really like his voice and he has a great range as well but he doesn't really hit that many notes here.

Daaamn Little Dennis in da houseee!!
Brendon truly is one hell of addition to the band. Vocally and as a bass player.
Dude, agreed
I got to meet him in their Aus tour and he's an awesome guy!
I miss Structures 😓 seriously bums me out that they disbanded
Anyone who has played in heavy bands before will understand how amazing it is to play heavy music this tight live! so sick \m/
get the thornhill boys on next
this is sick though
Would LOVE this.
Just got into them literally yesterday, they are a fucking gem, super potential in those fellas.
Backed 100%
@@gSWG3R mate your about 10 years off the boil this is there 5th album haha

This is one of the most impressive like a versions of all time. Marcus, just pat yourself on the back man. You are one of the best vocalists in all of metal.
Tyson Rees Ehh, not even close. But this album definitely has my vote for best metalcore album of 2019.
toyotaecw I dunno man, lots of years of cleans then immediate dirties and full on screaming, the only person I’ve really seen nail it every time is Chester from linkin park
@@toyotaecw dude it's not metalcore it's prog/drum and bass
Ryan Bailey I forgot how people react when you add “core” to the end of their favorite genre.
Alex Sercombe Sam Carter, Phil Bozeman...
Spencer Charnas is dirty in studio but I’ve never seen INK live so I’m not gonna speculate there.
Marcus sounds so stellar live - I'm always impressed - what a vocalist.

Marcus has some of the best vocals in the game. I’d love to see a collab with Northlane and Architects. Some of the two most distinct voices in the genre together would be immaculate.
I think the same
I swear when Marcus performs live it’s always pitch perfect, as if I’m just listening to the record ... very talented vocalist and amazing band
Nic is so incredibly tight, it's scary.
Marcus killed it, too!
I need my black trench coat and neo shades. Coz I'm gonna enter the matrix with that intro.
Northlane raided Area 51 before everyone else, and managed to steal this entire album.
Also a kmac2021 fan I see

I'll never understand the 'the old singer was better' comments for anything other than nostalgia, because the old singer couldn't 'sing'. Marcus can do it all. They're a better band with him. Just like The Contortionist are a better band now with Michael Lessard

NORTHLANE NEEDS MORE LIVE SESSION!
I used to watch Brendon with Structures all the time in Toronto. I'm so glad he's in Northlane now. He's got such a sick voice and I'm excited to hear his vocal contributions going forward.

Wow, would never imagine Northlane here! Amazing!
I love Northlane so much good memories through my dark times. I had Northlane's Alien album on repeat ever since its release.
Marcus Bridge - one of very few vocalists in metal that can pull vocals as it's on the record \m/
That was absolutely incredible!
I’ve been a Northlane fan for about 5 years now and after seeing them live a few weeks back at Penrith they’ve quickly become my favourite band.
They’re just so damn good!
Coming back to listen to this masterpiece every once in a while.
One of my favorite bands Marcus is crazy on vocals and Nic is so so good on the drums

Feels like Linkinpark from another and futuristic dimension
They sound like where Linkin Park could have been had they went and stayed the course and organically grew rather than rushing to change. They could have organically changed into something like this that would have made them be remembered with an even stronger impression.
Oniric link Linkin park was already in another futuristic dimension. Listen to their classic Reanimation album
Thats the first thing that went through my head.

Omg Marcus never fails. Live they’re amazing and every album just gets better and better. Love the album Love this song 💙
Between the new album, this, and the PhaseOne feature, this is a good year to be a Northlane fan.
best live metal band 😍 best album of the year 👌I love you guys!
The best band I have seen live hands down! Marcus is a beast!!
each band member is literally top tier and they bring it all together insanely well
One of the very best songs of Northlane. AMAZING!!!
These guys are dope live! Don't miss them if you have the chance!
I remember seeing them in Melbourne recently. High asf and my eyebrow bleeding from the Counteparts set and when this song came on it was such a euphoric moment
I was at the Thursday night show. They were both awesome

It’s wild how close to the recorded version they sound. Great mixing and performing
Yesssssss my favorite song from the new album thank you!!! 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼💯💯💯
This song is such a trip. and this live version is so close to the album version it's unreal. Well done.
Damn they fuken nailed this.
Amazing performance! That breakdown is just face-melting!
One of the best voices ever. So powerful. I karaoke this shit with a few friends. Top 3 all time favorite songs ever and I’m not easily pleased .
I think Triple J needs to support bands that are their peak in their genre regardless of commercial appeal. Just showcase these people that are the best at what they do, and celebrate that they are Australian.
Amazing
Could not be more obsessed with the depth and the energy this bands puts out
Marcus vocals bring tears to my eyes
Definitely need more of this live session from Northlane. Fucking love it.
WHAT A PERFORMANCE. I LOVE YOU GUYS. DARN
I like how at the end their like “ Yo, we just killed that shit “. They definitely did too! Can’t wait for Obsidian tomorrow!
The bassist and the drummer are so in sync in this band. It's fucking beautiful.
So much love for this band. These guys are the best
They sound so good live!!!!
holy fuck man... so heavy.
the way the voice bleeds into the bass, then the electronics bleed back into the vocals.
so good
Literally a flawless performance.

They become so simple with their music but the amount of its impact has never changed

One of my favorites from the album. This and Paradigm
How. Just how. They sound perfect
They evolve and evolve and evolve and usually at some point I don´t want to get used to any more change.
But these guys convince me everytime again
Northlane are amazing!!! Love it! You guys rock!
This is GOLD! Nicely done
2:36 "ÖLÖLÖLÖÖÖÖÄÄÄÄÄL!" Great :D :D
