it seems that no but if they pay attention, the drummer and the guitarists are the ones who were in downplay I am not the author of this video All rights reserved to Downplay
Well, I never thought I would see shirtless Dustin Bates smearing paint on himself while "Down With The Fallen" plays in the background, but here I am.
Their record label denying all these songs for what would've been their upcoming album was the best thing that happened to music. Dustin became inspired by his degree, and Starset was born. By far, the best live band I've seen all thanks to their Immersion tour this year. They inspire me to make a difference in the world.
he actually is singing it in the starset version. he's just singing with fry distortion, so it SOUNDS like a scream, but there's still a note in there.
Man, I really wish they'd re-release DWTF again with this emphasis. TRANSMISSIONS' version is excellent, but the added singing in the breakdown brings a ton to this song and its message. And the instruments come through a lot better here. Obviously no hate on the TRANSMISSIONS version (it's one of my favorite tracks ever), but this one hits different.
Seen these guys open in Aberdeen SD back in maybe ‘09 or ‘10, can’t remember exactly. Opened for Adelita’s Way & Puddle of Mudd. Let me tell you, Downplay was so fucking good live that we walked out on PoM.
Many songs from Transmissions were originally for Downplay, but their label tried to change the songs in drastic ways that took away from the song itself and the band was essentially screwed by their label
A lot of bands do this whenever a singer leaves a band and creates a new one. They essentially are taking their ideas from a previous band and bringing it into life in their newer one.
I still listen to Radiocalypse about 3 or 4 times a week. Starset is great, my favorite band actually, but Downplay has it's place too. even the Crystal Song
So considering that this was originally a Downplay song and that this a re upload of the music video, I take it that the original upload was deleted or privated because Dustin wanted to rebrand it as a Starset song.
Goddamn. I imagine someone chasing their close friend in a dream while they're in a coma as a music video, and then the actual music video is........ *this.*
Definitely one of my all time favorite songs... ❤ Well, the Starset version of "Down With The Fallen" is slightly different, especially in the bridge: The "BREAKING TROUGH THE BARRICADES isn't part of the version on their Transmissions album, but I like both versions!
this is my own song about despair... I was dumped three times by three different girls, and each time I sat on the edge of the bridge listening to this track... Dustin forever.
NMages20 Downplay went into an indefinite hiatus before some songs could be put on an album, such as Everything I Am (now known as Carnivore), Dark On Me, Down With the Fallen, Let It Die, My Demons, and probably a few others.
Can you tell me what is real, cause I’ve lost my way again, can you tell me how to feel, cause I don’t feel anything now that I’m down here again, I’m down with the fallen again!
I think the paint is supposed to symbolize the human condition. The black and blue paints represent the darkness in ourselves, but the bright orange and red that dustin breaks out in the last chorus represent the hope of escape. He's "down with the fallen" now, but there might be a way out. Tellingly, the words "The Human Condition" appear beneath their record label at the beginning and the end of the song.
This is Starset. It's a song from their first album. And they have a second one. And they are releasing singles for an upcoming third album in november. I don't know a lot about downplay but I know it's the same singer. So forget about Downplay and start listening to Starset because they are 100 times better
Downplay is his ex-band. I know that Starset is better, but Downplay has some great songs too, like Hated You From Hello, Save me, The one who laughs last
Actually Starset is a side project of Dustin and DeChant. Downplay is still in the works once the lineup can return to play again (one of them left for other interests. The other left for school)
Wow, that was really wrong. This was originally Downplay (along with most of the Transmissions album), Starset is a side project of Downplay, Starset released their third album in September, and both Starset and Downplay are great and neither should be ignored.
I love this version far better than the Starset version (And Starset in on nonstop repeat, the algorithm loves it because of me I think lol) I love it on a level I can’t even begin to explain… Beautiful, love the singing over the bridge in this version, which happens to be the best part of the song, always. 🥹💗🔭
Well, I never thought I would see shirtless Dustin Bates smearing paint on himself while "Down With The Fallen" plays in the background, but here I am.
Saaaaane
Same, but.. I'm definitely not complaining.

Title: Downplay
Description: Starset
U can hear this outro in My demons official audio.
@@nazo831 downplay remix
I can’t believe I never knew most of the songs on Transmissions were originally gonna be for Downplay
I believe about 8 of the 13 tracks from Transmissions were originally for Downplay, but Downplay's record label fucked them over IIRC
@@StarlitSkyeASMR BIG MISTAKE :P
@@perfectmachine6167 No del todo pues eso le abrió las puertas a Starset
same....
@@StarlitSkyeASMR i think they didnt want to make the song carnivore "carnivore"
i wish this version is also on spotify.
The bridge is so much better in this version. Its more motivating with him singing behind the screams
I agree. I wonder why he took that part out.
Nah I like the starset version, the screams feel more powerful without the singing
he actually is singing it in the starset version. he's just singing with fry distortion, so it SOUNDS like a scream, but there's still a note in there.
I fell in love with this song again. I didn't think it was possible
With Downplay's version now
This is like Starset stripped down without the synths lol
Nice profile pic!

*Dustin.. You're scaring me..*
I’m a little shocked I think I can stick with starset version of him cuz this right here...ain’t it demonic vibes
@@coreysmith820 The part that scares me is him shirtless smearing paint on himself
I actually like the screaming part here where he sings other things in the background hehe
My mind is so blown, so they waited until he started a different band to release thing song?
Sameeeeee!
Transmissions was like the bridge from Downplay to Starset so I guess it makes sense for both bands to have the same songs.
Starset is basically his remaster version
Many songs from Transmissions were originally for Downplay, but their label tried to change the songs in drastic ways that took away from the song itself and the band was essentially screwed by their label

I didn't know down with the fallen was also made in downplay like dark on me
Nice, I guess
Let It Die, Carnivore, and My Demons also originated in Downplay
Starset was Dustin's chance to redo and re-release a lot of these songs
I still listen to Radiocalypse about 3 or 4 times a week. Starset is great, my favorite band actually, but Downplay has it's place too. even the Crystal Song
i'd love to see a rap album by dustin lmao
@@GastropodGaming2006he did try rapping in the new song xd
So considering that this was originally a Downplay song and that this a re upload of the music video, I take it that the original upload was deleted or privated because Dustin wanted to rebrand it as a Starset song.
I think that Dustin didn't want to release this on downplay or didn't like this version and remake it on Starset
Goddamn. I imagine someone chasing their close friend in a dream while they're in a coma as a music video, and then the actual music video is........ *this.*
It sounds more... raw
I think I like it in a weird way...
Definitely one of my all time favorite songs... ❤ Well, the Starset version of "Down With The Fallen" is slightly different, especially in the bridge: The "BREAKING TROUGH THE BARRICADES isn't part of the version on their Transmissions album, but I like both versions!
I think Dustin is the only man I would legitimately kiss not even cap
Not even gay,But i would😂
This song also has the outro of My Demons. I like this version alot!
let it die, dark on me, my demons, carnivore and now this?
@KingXCorsa also it has begun
Don't forget Dark on me
@_DannyPhantom_ halo a was also supposed to be a downplay song
Baby Dustin 😮
yep
my favorite band been with them since downplays first album
What are some of your favorite songs?
@@Brandon2940 everyone mostly the divisions songs
2024 baby
bro i love starset so much.
Me too
I had no idea this was originally a downplay song before starset
he looks like one of the drummer's paintings
this is my own song about despair... I was dumped three times by three different girls, and each time I sat on the edge of the bridge listening to this track... Dustin forever.
O my god the MV!It’s my first time to watch it😮
Is it just me or the scream part goes like "This is fight!" instead of "This is war!" in Downplay Version?
@@nazo831 Oh, okay. Thanks.
Wasn't this song from Starset? Same with Dark on Me.
Plus, I'm not gay in any way. But Dustin.... Call me....
Most of Transmissions was originally written and recorded by/for Downplay, but was re-recorded for Starset
@@Ghost0fLuna528 really??? I never would have thought that

I'm not straight, but I'm right there with you.
youre metrosexual not gay xdd
Can you tell me what is real, cause I’ve lost my way again, can you tell me how to feel, cause I don’t feel anything now that I’m down here again, I’m down with the fallen again!
Dustin Bates look so gorgeous!
Downplay was so underrated. I prefer their style to Starset as it’s a little more straight up hard rock
Downplay got wrecked by their record label
Ultimately a win, cause we got Starset out of it though :)
Evan Mckeever returned to play studio guitarist on BNW and TokSik
Downplay will live forever
Es hermoso 😭❤

4:10 my demons outro
Oh! Oh! This! This is the superior version of the song! Absolutely!
this song represent my life completely, cause right now I have down with the fallen again :(
Yes, officially, Dustin is my husband!!!
I fuckin love him!!!
Me: 1% Cantar 99% ver a Dustin sin camiseta 7u7

Where did you get it??
Omg, finally!!
Can anyone please explain to me what is exactly happening in the music video?
Sorry, I cant

How did you find this?
Suggested by someone in a comment
Obsessed with Starset. Was bound to happen eventually.

God i wish that were me
Dustin Bates cosplaying at Data???
I like this version more.
