It's incredible how this band has stayed true to the sounds that define it like the chimey atmospheric cleans and the djent-djennn-djennnt rhythm tone. Some things don't change and I'm glad this band is one of them.
Agreed. And it's no small feat to continue to hone and perfect a sound over a career as long as theirs, and that's one of the reasons they're such a special band.
And at the same time they have progressed and evolved their sound with every album! Such an incredible journey - following this band as they have improved and matured!
@@IcarusNadir No kidding! Did you watch their commentary of War of Being? Legion came together in a different way than their normal writing process and it shows. Awesome piece of music!
@@skyhunter996 are you referring to using raw drum tones and triggering? I don't recall them ever programming drums for an album. He just utilizes midi and an e-kit for his online streams
It’s pretty subjective. It’s a phenomenal album, as they all are! Personally Altered State was a masterpiece. Just depends on who you are and what you like!
Regardless of what we each like, this is their strongest effort. The band took their best strengths and took them to a whole new level. This is the only tesseract album I like more than One. They're all good but I never thought they'd top One until now.
Not to discredit their previous albums of course. One and Altered state of two of my favourite albums of all time. But this album took all my favourite elements from the previous 4 albums and turned them up to the next level on War of Being
even if you don't like them, go watch Leprous. I can assure you their live performance is easily top 3 among all metal bands -- regarding sound, of course. They have evolved beyond my wildest dreams.
So glad I got to tell Dan in person that I think he’s the best metal singer on the face of the planet. Ultimately, just one of the coolest people I’ve ever had the pleasure of interacting with in the music industry.
brings me back to seeing em live in Melbourne, Tesseract ages like a fine wine, both in the studio and ESPECIALLY in live performance. It feels like more than just a gig, it's more like an experience
I hope I get to catch them live one day. The Contortionist show that I’ve been to gave me that same feeling of it being a unique experience rather than just another metal show. Speaking of, I’m starving for some new TC material 💀
@@FqbbpVessel (Leo Faulkner) has a rich, soulful voice. But man…Daniel Tompkins just knocks it out of the park, each and every time. Only Ian Kenny from Karnivool is in the same league, imho.
I was at this show. What a fucking performance. The absolute best sounding band I’ve ever seen live, and their presence was so ethereal, especially Dan.
I remember watching that one dudes live video of them doing this song over and over. To this day this song still absolutely kills. Best show ive seen in a while when you came to Pittsburgh.
Daniel! you are one of the best vocalists of my time. I would just suggest don't be afraid to bring in some more dirty vocals. The screams are great with melodic. You're one of the rare that can do so beautifully!
killer song, amazing band. they were amazing live this year. The best sound ive ever heard at the venue i saw them at. If you get the chance to go see them live, DO IT!
Unexpected and love the video! Any one else noticed how tesseract is nearly at 100k ? I think we should all get them there , get them that plaque to add to their souvenirs! Since they sustain life and all that 😉
Y'know it really amazes me how Tesseract have come full circle vocally. From a decent amount of screaming on One (still very good but fairly amateur), completely getting rid of screams on Altered State, and then slowly building them up again with background screams on Polaris, some more forward ones on Sonder and just the straight up savagery on War Of Being. Immense.
what a lovely occurrence to appear on my front page. #TesseracT live was born-again kinda stuff. this brought me back. love this track. love you all. \m/
I can't think of many, if any bands who have evolved and expanded their sound, consistently put out nothing but great music and CIRCLED BACK to being able to be, and unashamed to be as heavy as they were when they started. The heavy vocals and all of the vocals go crazy on this record. Titans, these guys.
Never missed one of ur concerts, and I’ll never forget how James always takes the time to thank me and my buddy for always being there (when we’re at the front). Greetings from the Netherlands James! Much love!
The absolutely massive crescendo variant of the Amos riff at 3:48 and 5:32 is like having a Tesseract-themed brain orgasm. Also, let's be honest, 2:06 is just a minute of pure melodic prog bliss.
Born restless Keep it inside You don't mind You don't get it Born restless You're a natural disaster I won't belong to your world Open up the gates, light up the way I will not live secretly, I will not delay It's where I belong, but in the night I'll stray Into the cold I creep Forward silently To avoid catastrophe There's no safe place for me to be As I'm deified and hidden in this underbelly Who have I become? Why so far? Why so far? Why won't you wait? Wait for me Die, writhe inside Die inside, crystalize We're living out your fantasy But you'll die Writhe inside Crystalize Born restless Keep it inside You don't mind You don't get it Born restless You're a natural disaster Still I lay awake in the night The serpent in my eyes You take from me the world The serpent in my eyes The serpent in my eyes The serpent in my eyes In my eyes
TesseracT is defining the future of metal.
ooooooh are you doing a video for this song???
If you had said that 10 years ago, i would have agreed with you.
I 100% agree with you, even not 10 years ago. I think they’re defining the future of music as an art form, if I’m being perfectly honest.
Calm down
nobody gives a f*ck about them
The best music to relax 😍❤️

Legion is a massive evolution for them, and it's still in their own style as well.. insane band.
@@IcarusNadir No kidding! Did you watch their commentary of War of Being? Legion came together in a different way than their normal writing process and it shows. Awesome piece of music!
The whole War Of Being album is a masterpiece.
No matter how many times I hear this track, I look forward to that ending section to lift my spirits
Bro, same. This ending section is pure heaven
Yup
What a song! Perfect opener for the album IMO
Perfect opener for their tour too. It was incredible.
Glad I was part of the crowd who had the pleasure to enjoy this incredibly intense & emotional gig in London this year.
THE SERPENT IN MY EYE!!!!!!
Dropped out of the blue and I couldn't be happier
Tesseract delivered one of the best concerts I ever attended in my life.
Me too! 😃🎵💗🤘
You was high and two dudes took you in a toilet cab?
Me too!
They were amazing. The contortionist was also insane, as was Meshuggah. All three of these blew me away live
Most underrated album of last year for how ridiculously good it is
It was AOTY for me.
one of the best opener to an album. daniel tompkins just took it to another level. cheers from saudi arabia 🇸🇦
That drummer has such a great feel for the “pocket”….Perfection!
Jay is top tier for sure!
Hopefully the drums are real this time. On previous albums they used drum machines per drimmer
@@skyhunter996 they absolutely are
@@skyhunter996 are you referring to using raw drum tones and triggering? I don't recall them ever programming drums for an album. He just utilizes midi and an e-kit for his online streams
@@cedricbernardiii i am not sure about technical terms, but he confirmed that for most albums they don't track live drums
This album is your finest work yet
'One' was

@@ThePurestMayhem I really thought they'd never top Altered State or One but this album is absolutely fantastic.
1:11 Ahh that patented Tesseract chug. Love it
Or....Meshuggah....
1:13 this section could last for hours and I wouldn’t mind
Same, that rhythm, the tone, bassy-ness, it's so addictive
it's pretty much the textbook definition of djent
@@jozza177 It is, but I love it without shame.
@@JazerMedia should never have shame for liking djent, it may not be a genre but it is a great sound
@@JazerMedia no shame in loving how Tesseract uses djent in their music
Best band on the planet, sick album. TesseracT \m/
Prime Tesseract is back baby!!!!!! When these guys are truly inspired, art flows magically.
Saw these legends here in Melbourne earlier this year, they are NEXT LEVEL.
I wanted to go so badddd
Saw them in Melbourne this year too! 😃🎵💗🤘
I have seen them live twice. I feel their music sounds the same as it does in this pre-recorded video. They are the finest band of our time.
even if you don't like them, go watch Leprous. I can assure you their live performance is easily top 3 among all metal bands -- regarding sound, of course. They have evolved beyond my wildest dreams.
So glad I got to tell Dan in person that I think he’s the best metal singer on the face of the planet. Ultimately, just one of the coolest people I’ve ever had the pleasure of interacting with in the music industry.
the track that defines the phrase "start as you mean to go on", just an incredible opening track for an album!
I've been a proud fan for more than 12 years now and I will continue to do so! This band never let me down. What a gem.
brings me back to seeing em live in Melbourne, Tesseract ages like a fine wine, both in the studio and ESPECIALLY in live performance. It feels like more than just a gig, it's more like an experience

Gotta come and see you guys live ASAP!! Been admiring you from a distance for far too long!
I wanna sleep on a bed made of Dan's voice
Gave you heard the album he did with Skyharbor? So. Damn. Good.
I spit out my coffee out all over my Dan sheets.
One of the most beautiful voices imo next to Vessel of Sleep Token and Manuel Gagneux of Zeal&Ardor. ❤
@@FqbbpVessel (Leo Faulkner) has a rich, soulful voice. But man…Daniel Tompkins just knocks it out of the park, each and every time. Only Ian Kenny from Karnivool is in the same league, imho.
@SpitFireShad dude... Celestials, evolution, miracle? Gah dang.... yes.
Im a drummer.. i put at least 30 times the first 20 seconds to understand that hellish fill from Jay
Listening to him break down his process is like hearing secrets of the universe.
Jay has to be one of the best live drummers. Every rhythm and beat he plays has a place and a purpose.
Mental! TesseracT bringing metal to the masses. And about fukin time!!
I was at this show. What a fucking performance. The absolute best sounding band I’ve ever seen live, and their presence was so ethereal, especially Dan.
I remember watching that one dudes live video of them doing this song over and over. To this day this song still absolutely kills. Best show ive seen in a while when you came to Pittsburgh.

killer song, amazing band. they were amazing live this year. The best sound ive ever heard at the venue i saw them at. If you get the chance to go see them live, DO IT!
best snare drum sound in the game
Love this band
Wow what a super metal power song, yeah, thanks Tesseract 💪👏🍻🤩
this is the type of "TESSERACT" song... amazing!
Found myself in the crowd, I can now die happy. Can't wait to see you guys again, great show!
Unexpected and love the video!
Any one else noticed how tesseract is nearly at 100k ? I think we should all get them there , get them that plaque to add to their souvenirs! Since they sustain life and all that 😉
I’m loving all the older clips in this video. How 14 years have passed by so fast watching the growth!!❤❤❤
BEAUTIFUL CHAOS
Are you kidding me??? Found you on my space, and Here we are years later 🤘🤘
So glad I didn't miss them on their way through the US! Awesome song...awesome live show!
I remember having a beer with James at Peabodys in Cleveland back in 2011 when they came with Devin Townsend. What a great show and great memory!
My Favorite Super Modern Band
0:41 один из лучших переходов) заслушал на "повторе a-b" раз двести) и не надоело до сих пор
Бас и барабаны просто шииииик, жииир, сееекс)
Got to see these guys live last year, and it was one of the best experiences in my life
Absolute beauty perfection awesome stunning beautiful work an amazing band perfect perfect

Hey chief, watch it calling one amateur. Just frickin watch it.
@@tannie3565gosh yea...One is an epic album. No one can put One down in my eyes! Its sacred to me.
3:50 - is pure Goosebumps.

TesseracT is life!!
My favorite concert of 2023 this band live is incredible!
Never missed one of ur concerts, and I’ll never forget how James always takes the time to thank me and my buddy for always being there (when we’re at the front).
Greetings from the Netherlands James! Much love!
Amazing song, one of your best! Love the video, you guys rock! See you in Gothenburg!
The absolutely massive crescendo variant of the Amos riff at 3:48 and 5:32 is like having a Tesseract-themed brain orgasm.
Also, let's be honest, 2:06 is just a minute of pure melodic prog bliss.
Incendiary masterpiece 🧨
This entire album is just incredible. The sense of dynamic and mood in the writing is perfect.
The sound of the band is so great, great work guys!
Nah this song is incredible
saw them at Teatro Flores (Argentina), they've opened the show with this gem, damn, i wish i could go back in time
So psyched for Mexico City! Can't wait to see you guys again! The wife isn't a fan of metal, but I showed "Portals" to her and she's excited as well!
This is my favorite type of videos, just footage of the bands touring, shredding and enjoying
Dan with the warpaint!
Was so incredible to be there!!
Ouffff!!!! Dig it. Bravo!!!🙌 impressed. Vraiment .
Yesss do it guys love 💟 you I was wondering why I wasn't feeling like myself.. I needed more tesseract in my life Ty
I check my notifs when i wake up every day. The first sentence i said today was "oh my god fuck yes"
This video looks like it was filmed in Pittsburgh. Which means im technically in a tesseract music video. Sick
Perfection define the song and the official music video made for it! I love TesseracT!
What an amazing song, that chorus is on another level of awesomeness
FIRST BABY
Saw you in Oslo this year, see you in Gothenburg next year! What a band.
I love Tesseract one of my favorites

My Favorite band forever
Great band, really hoping to catch them live next in the UK.
Can't wait to see them in September here in Brazil
Indeed!
Please record the performance at Radar Fest!
Born restless
Keep it inside
You don't mind
You don't get it
Born restless
You're a natural disaster
I won't belong to your world
Open up the gates, light up the way
I will not live secretly, I will not delay
It's where I belong, but in the night I'll stray
Into the cold I creep
Forward silently
To avoid catastrophe
There's no safe place for me to be
As I'm deified and hidden in this underbelly
Who have I become?
Why so far?
Why so far?
Why won't you wait?
Wait for me
Die, writhe inside
Die inside, crystalize
We're living out your fantasy
But you'll die
Writhe inside
Crystalize
Born restless
Keep it inside
You don't mind
You don't get it
Born restless
You're a natural disaster
Still I lay awake in the night
The serpent in my eyes
You take from me the world
The serpent in my eyes
The serpent in my eyes
The serpent in my eyes
In my eyes
