this bleeds energy from where they are from. the PNW, Vancouver Island. so dark and real and beautiful, god dam its just great. my favorite band💥lets take ferry ride to victoria!
-Spiritbox, If you read this I want you to know how special every little note and harmony you give to us is pure magic. Words really can’t express how your music makes me feel compared to some heavy hitters in my life of thirty six years.
Whoa, that ending is one of the best vocal arrangements that I've heard in a really long time, thank you Spiritbox, thank you for making music that transmits this kind of strong emotions. I hope I can see you guys live someday! Cheers from Colombia!
Did they get the idea from Circa Survive? This video is a low res version of "The Amulet" I'm not complaining. Is there a way to get the two bands together? In the vein of Sounds of Animals Fighting?

Genuinely dont understand how this song doesnt have the most views of all songs. Its their best track, hands down. Such a beautiful, haunting, emotional song. One of my favs of all time, not just in SB discog!
I second the qualities you listed But has quality ever been synonymous with popularity? No, and even if metalheads might have better taste in general, even in this genre, the in my opinion best stuff won't ever be the most popular. I quit listening to Circle With Me, it's just so painfully cookie-cutter. And my favorite record is the singles collection. I hope their next release will be proggier again.
"If you could see me now, you'd catch me in the death spiral" is a staggering line and to have Courtney belt it in the outro is so powerful im in shock
Yep, for me too, Spiritbox is becoming my favorite band actually. But hey dudes, you really should sell more physical copies of your EP because damn trust me we are a lot wishing to get it. From France with love.
Incredible, deep lyrics. I have been trying to find the word that describes the emotion at the end... Acceptance? Vulnerability? Clarity? Sorrow? They are all there, but it is so much more...
I think the word I am looking for is absolution. Even so, it still feels hollow... I suppose it makes sense. How could a single word capture what they took 5 minutes to build? I am still in awe of this song...
That’s it. This is my favorite band, I’ve determined it. Not one bad song, you guys are pure genius. Courtney REALLY stepped up her cleans. Like wow. I’m in love with this band. 10/10 thank you for existing
To be fair, I can count the amount of songs they have on my fingers and toes. There isn't much room for error. Depending on how long this band sticks around for there will most definitely be at least 1 bad song
I just realized, if you look at the last three singles they released, there are little colored bars at the very bottom of each of the covers. Each time a new single was released, a new bar with a different color has appeared on the newest single. So based on that and the amount of space left on the covers, I'm guessing we are getting two more songs Edit: I believe the colors also correspond to the color of the pictures they post on twitter before they release each song.
The colored bars, right? I knew I wasn't the only one. I kind of pegged these songs to be on an EP. They're all varied in sound greatly to be part of a cohesive album. But holy shit this stuff is all still so good though.
Adding to this: if you listen to the singles in chronological order, each next one begins quite similarly to how the previous one ends! It’s especially noticeable with Perennial and Electric Cross.
This is seriously one of the most beautiful songs ever, and I do not say things like that lightly. Thank you so much for this music 😭 I am like smiling and crying from this 💗
that parts when she sings "it was an arbitrary kill" was so beautiful and hooky stg....."if you could see me now, I'd hold you responsible," and "if you could see me now you'd catch me in the death spiral" made me emotional because it hits home and with the vocal layered harmonies just bring the tears every time. The bridge when she screams "Cadavered lungs I know you cannot breath in, you disconnect but your bones remain it's the same damn thing...,To cut my heart, survive on muscles memory...." all the way down to the end also sucker punched me with the feels
UA-cam: "hey you wanna see my 4th of July fireworks video?" Me: "nah i'm good" UA-cam: "But Spiritbox is providing the soundtrack" Me: "Okay i'm gonna switch to the tv with the good speakers"
I always heard parts of IWABO's songs that I wished the entire song was in that theme/style (Overall disliked the band, and would only listen to each song once, for basically the shock value). And now I get that wish, Spiritbox have blown me away since finding them this week.
Literally my absolute favorite band of all time. There’s not one Fucking song that I don’t absolutely love. Honestly the genre is getting stale... and it’s so refreshing when a band has a crisp, original, and unique sound. Spiritbox is just one of those bands that can never be replicated. They’re their own breed ❤️
@@ThyAsianMan tbh compared to the rest of the other releases and their ep I think this would go in the bad songs, feels pretty weak and im not a fan of the breakdown chime at all
Mullac I have to agree with you there. Although, I'm typing this on my first listen. I've learned not to always trust my first listen because I end up loving it later. Same thing happened with Perennial. I thought it sounded so weird at first but it grew on me over time.
@@theacademyisntt 2nd listen is the one where it should sound good, if it only starts to sound good on your 3rd-5th listen then it's the musical equivalent of Stockholm syndrome making you like it
They also aren't releasing a full album they just wanna keep doing what they're doing because honestly they're smashing it out the fking Park so far everyone eating up any piece of content they supply us with xD
@@Slodsworth I actually told a friend of mine that Courtney has beaten out Maynard for my favorite vocalist of all time, which is weird cause I never even would have compared the two before Spiritbox.
it's been 2 days since i first listened to this and it's currently my favourite song. bleach bath comes very close, but the euphoria from this song is unreal
i was in a dark place when i found this band. im still in that dark place. and i still cant get enough of this band. its been a trust fall since day one..... i might just wither away now
My personal favorite song by them so far--everything is just awesome. Light, heavy, straight-singing, scream/gutteral-singing... it literally has everything going for it. Just beautiful
I hope somehow someone records the full set with no edits because I already know that headline show will be amazing. Trust Fall is an easy top 3 Spiritbox song for me.
@@primebreaker6628 my top 3 is everything's eventual in 3rd, halcyon in 2nd and trust fall in 1st. their melodic shit is what gets me every time. halcyon and everything's eventual just each have a part that reaches out to me. in halcyon it's the bridge after the 2nd chorus, and in everything's eventual it's the part after the first screaming section where the lead guitar ascends into fast arpeggios and everything suddenly sounds heavenly. they're just so good
@@mylife1221I know exactly what you mean cause I pick up on those things and feel it too. I hope those songs get more & more attention as days go by. To me, those moments will always be the defining Spiritbox sound.
Thank you so much for everything. For helping me find the beauty of suffering. For helping see the growth of myself. For turning the horrorous dark to the luminous shadow. This music will always be more then that for me. Love y'all.
I always respectfully favored Krysta as IWABO vocalist. I had to learn to love Courtney and honestly for years wished Krysta would return. But this band instantly was all I wanted to listen to and Empyrean Lights seems it will take time to love. It's not a competition and I try not to look at art that way, just admiring the growth I've seen in Courtney over like 7 years.. Usually it's the instruments and composition that win me with metal and this is brilliant in a way I can only compare with a Tool level of brilliance, but it's all about her for me. She's amazing.
This is so beautiful I really can’t believe this is possible. The two over lapping vocal tracks, “if you could see me now, you would catch me in a death spiral “, is absolutely amazing.
Have not been disappointed with anything Spiritbox has released. Seriously one of the best metal bands out there right now. I love this video too, almost reminds me of Circa Survive's The Amulet video. 😊
I know what u mean. Like koi no yokan esk...deftones are the 1st band to blend beauty and brutalty seamlessly...spiritbox destroyed this track! Perfection!

Fit for a king was by far my favorite but theyve been blown away by these guys recently
@@mikezinj ur right, they just do it better and better. It's insane
Metal?
Yeahh man, they're so good!
They are pretty good, but I wouldn't go that far lol

i loooooved your reaction to this. we need more reactors who feel and express strong emotions from music
Wow man honestly this song is on a whole different level
Spiritbox. I love you, I alllwaaays wiiiiiiiilll
Discovered these guys only a week ago but am absolutely in love with their music! Such a fresh style!
The fucking end, her voice is fucking Beautiful.
This is one of the most beautiful songs ever written. Thankyou @SpiritboxOfficial for all the great music..
You guys literally do NOT get enough credit! Amazing vocals & instruments!!!
This is so colourful in every aspect. Mad props to these dudes for bringing life to music
This song is so underrated wtf
one day i hope to hear this live. maybe whenever they headline a tour
courtney and mike both admitted they LOVE the song but i honestly doubt they'd play it live. it'd be a miracle
Just found this band and this song already hypes me up to do something great and have an awesome time
still my favorite. gives me chills everytime
If I comment on this song a million times how much I love it it could never accurately express how its saving my life
This sounds so nostalgic ❤
that breakdown 3:10 is brutal and beautiful...holy crap that was awesome
The perfect song doesn't exi-
I wish I could like this comment every time I see it lol
you should Copyright that comment :-)
OMFG this band! 😱🤯❤🤘
Ohhhh man 🔥❤️
Great stuff!
Vaguely reminds of Remain Indoors by Periphery in some parts
I think this song is very beautiful.
and i think it's interesting If you guys will make it an Acoustic Version
Another amazing song
How'd I miss this?!
Fn amazing shit!

please, play this song on resurrection fest, spain
Fucking love it. ♥
4:40 who the hell else is doing shit like this in metal? please, tell me
the contortionist does it too
Soen did it too
Tesseract, The great discord
I couldn’t find the Soen or Tesseract tracks, unfortunately
Awesome song. I feel like the atmospheric guitars are a little too distracting from the awesome riffs, but I'm just nitpicking.
Who else is here in 2024 still listening to this amazing SB song?
MEEEEEEEEEEEE!
I am! I am!

100% agree with you. The vocal dynamics of Courtney as well as the different tones and emotion the guitar portrays.
Because there are better songs. Solved your genuine question.
@@musicislaw77 Opinionated answer.
@@ACGaming07 to an opinionated statement
"If you could see me now, you'd catch me in the death spiral" is a staggering line and to have Courtney belt it in the outro is so powerful im in shock
That’s what brought me back dude
Courtney is a brilliant lyricist
I tear up when the outro "if you can see me now" starts playing
Fucking amazing
Chills every time 😌
Same same
Every single time, it’s crazy
The vocal arrangement for this song is astonishing!
Jesus Christ. Literally the most underrated band in the world. This needs 200K views, now.
I personally think the most underrated band in the world is sukekiyo :)
almost there now
Almost there, 8000 more!
The fact it still doesn't one year later is an absolute travesty
Less than 2k
This is one of the best recorded pieces of music I've ever heard (and I'm 51). And it is one of your very best, Spiritbox.
Agree (39)

I like this soft but still heavy vibe. It's got kind of a more nurturing sound to it. Spirit box is always good. It's relevant.
Honestly this song and Sword in mouth by Norma Jean are my favorite songs of all time simply because of the vibe they give off.
That's exactly how I feel about their new song Constance. It's been out for 3 days now and I've probably listened to it 50 times ngl
@@twinny_miwould do a reaction video but I don't want ppl to see me cry
Those harmonies at the end...damn...
Yep, for me too, Spiritbox is becoming my favorite band actually. But hey dudes, you really should sell more physical copies of your EP because damn trust me we are a lot wishing to get it. From France with love.
These older songs deserve more attention. Love the new stuff too, but damn this is good.
4:05 til the end is some of the strongest frisson I've gotten from music.
I was just about to say the exact same thing. This band is special.
You love music.
Cant think of a better harmonized ending in Metal history
Their best and most underrated song. Everything after 4:05 is god tier
Repeat 🤟
forking awesome and yes its their best
Nah god tier is the riff at 3:37
Incredible, deep lyrics. I have been trying to find the word that describes the emotion at the end... Acceptance? Vulnerability? Clarity? Sorrow? They are all there, but it is so much more...
Heartbreak
Melancholy

KaiserRexatron huh i never noticed that! Thats cool
I wouldn't mind if they released a song a month for a year until they had a full 12 song album if all the songs are of this quality
This is seriously one of the most beautiful songs ever, and I do not say things like that lightly. Thank you so much for this music 😭 I am like smiling and crying from this 💗

Same
Every freaking time! 😁😭

Please never EVER stop.

This is it chief.
The way the drummer in this band uses his snare is crazy and adds a whole different element than I'm used to in terms of tempo and dynamics
Yeah them ghost notes man.
I feel like he puts emphasis on it by not using it so so much so when he does it hits hard going along with song
Mike programs all the drums haha, he is damn good at it that's for sure
I always heard parts of IWABO's songs that I wished the entire song was in that theme/style (Overall disliked the band, and would only listen to each song once, for basically the shock value). And now I get that wish, Spiritbox have blown me away since finding them this week.
Welcome to the awesomeness! 🤘🏻
I love whole Late For Nothing by IWABO, plus some songs from Hail Mary, but absolutely love everything from Spiritbox.
This band is fire, man. I love the feeling when you find music that is as good as this. I hope you guys will release tabs for the albm

Agreed. Too many unoriginal bands in this genre. Every song they’ve come out with is refreshing and unique
This should have 2 million views. One of the best metal bands I've heard in some time.
You caught me in my death spiral, SpiritBox. Rock on.

Damn this song deserves better production. What a shame. This possibly their best song if you ask me.

I need bass playthrough of this song!!!!
Realmente amo esta canción con el alma... Spiritbox

Keep going, friend. Best wishes
Keep going, one day at a time.
This has been my favorite song since I heard it years ago, and god damn I need more like it.
Currently listening to this while fireworks are going off on the 4th of July and I must say, it is pretty epic.
My personal favorite song by them so far--everything is just awesome. Light, heavy, straight-singing, scream/gutteral-singing... it literally has everything going for it. Just beautiful

Brandon Hill Same dude, same.
The video, the song, absolutely outstanding. Still my all time favorite from them
I’m drunk & in love

This is so beautiful I really can’t believe this is possible. The two over lapping vocal tracks, “if you could see me now, you would catch me in a death spiral “, is absolutely amazing.
How did I just find out this band?? Y'all are fucking amazing.
This sounds a lot like Periphery - Remain Indoors, I love it!!!!!!!
Oh. my god. WHAT I CAN HEAR IT
the "DAH DUn DAH DUn" riff!!
I'm from DC and cannot believe I havent seen Periphery live yet
Somehow I get Deftones vibes when I listen to Spiritbox
Have not been disappointed with anything Spiritbox has released. Seriously one of the best metal bands out there right now. I love this video too, almost reminds me of Circa Survive's The Amulet video. 😊
I knew there was a chance I'd find someone else who thought of Circa Survive's video😁
a magical tune with all the layered voices
Damn she is good. I think this is the type of music a lot millennial metal heads want to hear, or at least this millennial loves it💕.
Melodic AND HEAVY: OMFG. Superb!
Does the main riff remind anyone of manichee from veil of maya at all?
This song remind me of Deftones... witch is a good thing
stop it
I know what u mean. Like koi no yokan esk...deftones are the 1st band to blend beauty and brutalty seamlessly...spiritbox destroyed this track! Perfection!
I'm probably responsible for over 200 plays on this video. Still waiting on that CD to ship.
