Absolutely vile, as expected! What I always loved about AB is how emotional their songs actually are. Jagged melancholy I guess. It's not immediately apparent perhaps but this always resonated with me. That being said, these riffs are... fuck man hahaha.
Yes I also noticed this after listening to Estranged From Orbit. Also pretty melancholic probably my fav from them, I don't know the lyrics but from the title of the song, I think this is about a planet being flung out of the suns orbit somehow, hurls through the solar system. In the song at 4:16 this is where the planet crosses the boundary between the solar system and interstellar space, this howling noise come in and everyone on the planet laments their fate. Man i love artificial also bought the tab book to learn some of those crazy riffs haha
The closest thing I can think of that has that same emotional impact is the last album from Ulcerate. I hope that one day I get the chance to see these bands live, preferably at the same show haha. Cant wait for this new album to drop!
@@dzanci1 saw Ulcerate live in 2018, went there solo and man where they good! Also agree regarding their latest, similar sense of desolation but for me Ulcerate are devoid of this "longing" whereas AB have semblance of it. In any case I am mega excited for the new album!
Celestial Cyst Lyrics Descendants of the last surviving humans Grown now having never known the world that's gone A scar they all must wear upon their face A map to a constellation out in space Carved with an arrow down to the marrow Carved with an arrow down to the marrow Ancient maps from the sky When the world was destroyed The stars came back into their vision, giving them wisdom
One of the most incredible two guitar attacks of any metal band ever. The stuff going on during the main 7/4 section is absolutely crushing and next level. Need headphones to appreciate the nuances here.
Damn man that took me somewhere else. I spaced out. Fucking epic. That back and forth was amazing. Felt like I was on a desolate planet staring into the abyss as a child. Fucking trippy. Definitely listening to this on repeat next time I'm getting big like Mario.
Oof that's a great one but Afterbirth, Archspire, Suffering Hour and Ad Nauseam dropped amazing albums last year! In any case I'm just glad we're getting so much good music.
@@UponThisAltar I don't know haha. I got so into Labyrinth Constellation that the - let's say "change of vibe" - second album felt very different with the first 2 or 3 listens. I started enjoying the whole record after that. On the other hand, Estranged From Orbit ended up being my favourite (and also the first one I started practicing when I purchased the Tab Books) followed by Graveyard of Lightless Planets. Both are such bangers!
@@Pablo_25593 I mean I do agree to an extent, because there certainly was a tonal shift between the two albums. Hell yes to learning Estranged first btw!
This sounds more like Deathspell Omega than the latest Deathspell Omega, and I'm all about it. This song is amazing. Beautifully dissonant, crushing, yet catchy, brutal, yet atmospheric. Love it, can't wait for the album!!
@@zlodrim9284 I compared litetally a single song to Deathspell. Portal sounds nothing like them, neither does Gorguts, and even Blut Aus Nord doesn't anymore. I just thought the intro sounded like them. Relax
@@zlodrim9284 I hope you don't expect me to take your point seriously, considering the best thing you can say is "Your post sucks". And for the record, The Long Defeat has grown on me a lot, I made this comment after my first listen, but there is no questioning that it sounds a lot different
Calm down, I was joking when I said, that with Samuel Smith having put out an album with Aeviterne and a sign of life from Luminous Vault within a week or so, that the new AB would be around the corner. Lo and behold. I am amazed and very happy.
I prefer the production of infrared horizon. The incredible musicianship is obscured by a bit too much muddyness if you ask me, but the playing is top notch and the vocals are crazy rich in variety holy clap
Just floored with how great this is. Though, really bummed about this being Will’s last record with the band. Hope some resolution can come out and get ya’ll back in the same studio cause this is some magic Jonson.
whats will doing next? metal archives will show me the way but i only just joined the dots and realised will was the other half of castavet!!!!!!! hence why i enjoy im flipping out over how good this is....devine.
Not only did I not know there was a single out already, but I get greeted by understanding at least fifteen words? WHAT HAPPENED IN THE LAST SEVEN YEARS.
This stuff is pretty cool. I'd recommend checking out The Great Old Ones (perhaps "A Thousand Young" to start with) if you want more spacey black/death metal.
One of the most promising modern DM bands rn, such a shame that this is the last album with Will on vocals, with this single I can already tell he's going off with a blast.
@@EnergyChasms Dude holy shit I just realized that the albums maybe follow a story. 1. War 2. Desolate wasteland with remains of the war 3. The remains millions (or any amount of time but million sounds cooler) of years later where civilization perished and nature has taken over once again
What happened to the riffs and the vocals from the first album? This seems like an Artificial Brain track you'd expect from them at 50. Seriously though the vocalist can't be the same.
![Artificial Brain - Celestial Cyst [guitar playthrough]](/img/n.gif)
Can’t even express how I’ve longed for this. Absolutely crushing so far. Can’t wait to hear the rest.
Fantano said it's like a tech death take on the Super Metroid OST, and I get it. Epic.
It is my first time listening to this band and the truth is that they are incredible, what a great job thanks guys.

Good morning artificial brain!
Celestial Cyst Lyrics
Descendants of the last surviving humans
Grown now having never known the world that's gone
A scar they all must wear upon their face
A map to a constellation out in space
Carved with an arrow down to the marrow
Carved with an arrow down to the marrow
Ancient maps from the sky
When the world was destroyed
The stars came back into their vision, giving them wisdom
Haven't been that hyped for a release in a long time.
Absolute magic. Gorgeous dissonance. Artificial Brain never ceases to amaze!
BROOOOOOOOOOTHER!!
@@Metal555Fan My man! You already know I'm all over this bro!
One of the most incredible two guitar attacks of any metal band ever. The stuff going on during the main 7/4 section is absolutely crushing and next level. Need headphones to appreciate the nuances here.
just from theory perspective, why do you count it as 7/4 instead of 7/8?
@@maaaaaap I'm also keen for an answer to this.
Didn't think Will Smith could slap harder 💯
No
Genius
Damn man that took me somewhere else. I spaced out. Fucking epic. That back and forth was amazing. Felt like I was on a desolate planet staring into the abyss as a child. Fucking trippy. Definitely listening to this on repeat next time I'm getting big like Mario.
So much feeling and emotion, yet still brutal as all shit! That’s why I love this band!
I haven't heard something this good since Ulcerate's last album, Stare Into Death And Be Still. So perfect.
If you want something good check this out Eximperitus - Sahrartu
Oof that's a great one but Afterbirth, Archspire, Suffering Hour and Ad Nauseam dropped amazing albums last year! In any case I'm just glad we're getting so much good music.
@@the6ig6adwolf That album was in my top ten for 2021. I loved it. Ulcerate was my number one of 2020.
New Arkaik is Amazing too.
@@franlovelsimic8421 dude I fucking love Ad Nauseam. Amazing band
Damn, about time they made a new album! What a great year for music so far.
MIKE killed it!!! That was a really pleasant surprise, been jamming paradox earlier this week too.
Yes please
Flawless as always. 🖤
I ordered it after the first listen. Infrared Horizon took me a few listens to fully appreciate it, but this one was a instant purchase.
Wait, really? I genuinely think Estranged From Orbit is their best song.

Vocals on another level. Lows sounding like an elden ring boss
🤣🤣
I miss the old vocalist’s highs though :( those parts made me want to take a baseball bat to my mailman
@@hitleractually8180 i thought it was the same vocalist
@@julioazathoth It is
This sounds more like Deathspell Omega than the latest Deathspell Omega, and I'm all about it. This song is amazing. Beautifully dissonant, crushing, yet catchy, brutal, yet atmospheric. Love it, can't wait for the album!!
"This sounds more like Deathspell Omega than the latest Deathspell Omega"
It certainly does not, actually. Stop comparing everything dissonant to DsO.

@@AgainstTheeWickedlyMusic I'm relaxed, your post still sucks though. Not only is your comparison off-base, you also got filtered by The Long Defeat.

Wow didn't think they'd be releasing new music. Glad to have you back Artificial Brain!

Ive been checking for a new AB record every few weeks for years haha. OMG i cant wait
I was just searching for their previous album - to relisten - what a great surprise!
Literally spent an hour learning that intro. Can't wait for the album❤️
saber que se viene un nuevo album de Artificial brain me alegra la vida
Beatiful, complex, intense, brutal, melodic..... Excellent single.
Very, very strong single. A tone of things to come? Hope so
The voice in the 30 first seconds is perfect
Must be Mike Browning at around 2:40….so eeeeeevil.
Just incredible and beautiful
Wow this is incredible and worth the 5 year wait. Such beauty and intricate brutality combined.
I prefer the production of infrared horizon. The incredible musicianship is obscured by a bit too much muddyness if you ask me, but the playing is top notch and the vocals are crazy rich in variety holy clap
Yeah, pains to me say that I agree with this take. Both Infrared Horizon and the debut had amazing production.
Yes!
Excellent track
Beautiful!
Just floored with how great this is. Though, really bummed about this being Will’s last record with the band. Hope some resolution can come out and get ya’ll back in the same studio cause this is some magic Jonson.
whats will doing next? metal archives will show me the way but i only just joined the dots and realised will was the other half of castavet!!!!!!! hence why i enjoy im flipping out over how good this is....devine.
@Leonardo La Leonardo I think he will focus more on Afterbirth, but I will listen to everything he's involved 🤘
@@leonardolaleonardo4924 Castevet were great, but I don't think Will was ever a part of that band.
@@B1tterAndThenSome ya right, im way off, im thinking andrew hock....
Really interesting style. I'll definitely keep an eye out for this...
Dude, I have been eagerly awaiting this. I am so excited. This rules, thank you guys. Awesome cover art, as well.
And...I'm just gonna play that again. And again. A few dozen more times.
Bass in main riff, ahh
Tu du du tuuu tudududu tu tu du duuu
Brain melting 🔥 🔥
Legendary band, outstanders of a genre
this band slaps soooo muuuuch
Been waiting for a new AB album for a loooong time🤘
so my space realm extreme gods are back!!!!....infrared Horizon took a while to Discover the masterpiece It is....so stock for this!!!
Yes
Awesome, glad you guys are back.
Not only did I not know there was a single out already, but I get greeted by understanding at least fifteen words? WHAT HAPPENED IN THE LAST SEVEN YEARS.
This song is sick, Mike Browning sounds evil as hell in the song too
This is so good
🔥🔥🔥
Oh shit dawg they're back!!! My gutter growly bois outdoing themselves yet again 🖤
This stuff is pretty cool. I'd recommend checking out The Great Old Ones (perhaps "A Thousand Young" to start with) if you want more spacey black/death metal.
Top shelf material 🔥
Worth the wait
This song is fucking phenomenal. Can't wait to grab this on vinyl.
Ya hacía falta nuevo material de Artificial Brain.
Great band
I heard some of the new songs live in the olde world and this is their finest
Can't wait
Now this is what I needed on a Monday morning. Fuck yeah! \m/
Amazing new stuff, we want more.
Well I'm definitely listening to this record holy crap. I thought that Hath album was viscous.
Love it
It's about fucking time, goddamnit ! 🤘
Damn that was incredible
Hot damn! This is good.
good, didn't expect anything less
Banger
Finally! Happiness...
WOW.....
FINALLY!
This year profound lore is spacial, i say it without interest to pull water to my mill, it appears factual to me
More vinyls please
One of the most promising modern DM bands rn, such a shame that this is the last album with Will on vocals, with this single I can already tell he's going off with a blast.
easy pre-order
love that cover, gives me patlabor vibes, but also the song slaps.
peak death metal. chaotic, dissonant and slaps like a truck
I won't listen because I don't like spoilers. And it's clear that it's going to be a great album.
A welcome surprise!
GOOD
Great song! Worth the wait. Having trouble making out the album artwork, some kind of abandoned alien machinery or war machine?
Looks like one of the robot bugs from the first album cover
@@EnergyChasms Dude holy shit I just realized that the albums maybe follow a story.
1. War
2. Desolate wasteland with remains of the war
3. The remains millions (or any amount of time but million sounds cooler) of years later where civilization perished and nature has taken over once again
@@nicolasreny221 Absolutely! Never thought of that, definitely fits. Gonna revisit the discog and really give the lyrics a read tonight
Track is dope, but just out of curiosity, Is this the final mix/master?
Damn 5 years
fucking hyped
What happened to the riffs and the vocals from the first album? This seems like an Artificial Brain track you'd expect from them at 50. Seriously though the vocalist can't be the same.
F I N N A L Y
AOTY in advance
FINALLY
This release is gonna be biblical!
Sam Smith is having a fucking year isn't he
Malcolm Pugh brought me here
I don't really listen to death metal like that. This shit go hard
Never clicked so fast...
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
The last AB album???? so sad :(
This is not the last AB album
The last with vocalist Will Smith.
@@mactonight79 is the new one actually good? I haven’t heard his stuff yet but I’m sad because I love Will’s vocals
This is the only will smith that matters
A UN LADO
Well, that was a really nasty trick with the US date format...
Noice.
