This morning I went back in time and came to listen, and read the comments about Bennett. Broke my heart because I had no clue. RIP. Thankful enough to see them live twice and actually played a show with them during their infancy stage. It was truly a golden era. Love them and their music ❤
Even if Of Machines doesn't stay together, they've given something beautiful to all of us that will last a lifetime and on. They've embossed a happiness in our hearts, and that is more than I could ask for from a group of talented musicians/artists.
Initially I thought the beginning was Dylan. However, I talked to Bennett's brother Friday night and he did say it was Bennett singing in the beginning. Shouldn't really be any more discussion about that now >.>
Of Machines is still one of my favorite bands of all time. The guitar tapping is what pulled me in. So different from all the other bands in the over populated genre!
I'm glad to see that you're not letting Rise take this away from us, from you. A simple name change doesn't take away from the fact that I am getting new OM music.
I probably listened to this song 30 times in a row, literally. You all have so much talent, and it makes me so happy that you're coming back, for however long. You all are inspiration to us all, and in a way, you all are hero's. Fantastic work, guys.
I've listened to this over 50 times in the past few days. I keep it on repeat, low volume, before I go to sleep. So happy you're all back :) Still a monumental voice Dylan ! iloveyoubrother
of machines are so damn talented, the song almost makes me cry. But why are they only coming back to make 1 EP? They are the BEST band in the scene literately. Why they are wasting this AMAZING talent? They can easily get signed, make living by that and they have the most loyal crowd ever. I don't understand them... They doesn't enjoy doing it? Why only for 1 EP? Please stay after the EP, please tell the reason why you guys don't want to return, do tours and get signed? What is wrong?
6Traceur Not really. Labels oan bands money for making the album and if youre lucky tour money. Bands have to come up with this money themselves. Its why so many bands DIY so much.
Noah Rich I completely agree with you on this, the fact that this will most likely be their last album makes it something to be cherished, they got back together for their massive fanbase and decided to answer to the demand because they knew how much meaning they held for every one of us, that makes this EP more valuable than diamonds to me because nothing else could ever give me the emotions I feel listening to OM.
Dj Tempesta Noah Rich actually I know Michael and Wesley and they told me the financial problems were the biggest problem that ultimately caused Dylan to leave the band in the first place, and nobody wanted to waste so much time looking for a new singer that would be anywhere near as good as Dylan, so that was the main cause.
Major talent, guys. I was actually kind of afraid that your return would flop, as it did to me for many other bands I used to love listening to. But after hearing this... I have faith in you guys. Whatever you decide to do, wherever you go in life, just remember that you've left an impact in our lives with your music. You've done something amazing. Don't ever forget that.
This is like the dream of having to live my life with OM reunited; even for the last time. I never actually thought that you would even think about making something for fans like me and it's like a blessing because we're left wanting more of this material in the past years and we've been waiting for (new) bands to, somehow, be an equal to what you do. But you guys are the best at this. Of Machines fan from Philippines!!!
Please stay together...! I missed your music so damn much and now that it´s here again... damn just overwhelming good! You guys are living and loving music and you can hearthat in that song! Of Machines for ever
6traceur- its much more complicated than that. They're human, they have lives and they have to be able to support themselves. It takes significant time for revenue to start procuring and they have to have money. The first time money was so tight, it really difficult on the band. I want more as much as you do but remember its a lot more complicated than what you might think.
I kind of hope this picks up a little. I know I have a HUGE expectation for this album (even though I shouldn't because no matter what it'll be awesome), but this song doesn't really sound like Of Machines. Dylan sounds really differently (It's been years so I can understand why). I just hope it's like their old stuff :) That being said, I still can't wait to hear it even if it's completely different. They are legends. Can't wait.
yea I hope it will be a 4-5 minutes song. or even longer... and I really really hope the piano version of becoming close to closure will be on the ep (still hope it will be a full length)
Maybe they thought it was funny no one thought it was Dylan, when it actually is. So they were like yeah totally Bennett. Because it's so clear that the cleans are all the same voice..
and please guys. make a full length. the best option is if joey sturgis will be the producer cause I would like to hear this blessthefall - hollow bodies sound ... the vocals on this album blends very well ...
those who say Dylan sounds different, you need to realize that it's not his voice at the beginning of the song, he chimes in at 0:58 and if that's not what you're talking about then you have hearing problems.
this demo is obviously a little muddy. the instruments are kinda all blending into each other. they gotta get the production from the original LP back!
Imagining what this album would've sounded like. And i just wish i lived the parallel universe where it did. Of Machines for life... FOR LIIIFE!!!
I do the same thing with DGD and Jonny Craig, a universe where he got clean was still with them today
This morning I went back in time and came to listen, and read the comments about Bennett. Broke my heart because I had no clue. RIP. Thankful enough to see them live twice and actually played a show with them during their infancy stage. It was truly a golden era. Love them and their music ❤
Rest in peace Bennett freeman.
RIP Bennett Freeman. Your unclean vocals will never be forgotten.
I go back to this song every few years and I’m still so bummed the ep never came out.
Right here with ya bud
I feel ya man. I listen to this song pretty often, such a bummer it never released
still bummed btw
Even if Of Machines doesn't stay together, they've given something beautiful to all of us that will last a lifetime and on. They've embossed a happiness in our hearts, and that is more than I could ask for from a group of talented musicians/artists.
2024 i miss you, of machines....
Such a shame this never got finished
I miss these guys so much. With no doubt best band ever existed.
I’m here too 👋
Okay chief that’s definitely a reach
If you're going through "of machines withdrawal" listen to "Their eyes look north" it's Bennett & Dylan before OM
thanks man, me and my friends really need this!
@@skylarmonsta8304 I second that. Thanks for the recommendation @randy lopez
Every. Single. Day. I think about this and what could’ve been, damn.
R.I.P Bennett we all love you♡♡♡
Make a comeback… loved you guys as a kid! ❤🧅👊🏽
Still hits during 2024
2020 ofmachines
R.I.P 😥
Yes 2020! 🔥
Give it up buddy been dead for 6 yrs now
@@elchangux fuck you buddy we aint giving up hope.
@@thycreator3296 😂😂 don't hold your breath then
i really wish dylan and the guys could have got together and worked shit out man. no other band has hit the same since of machines.
Hearing Dylan again is the best thing to have happened. Of Machines wouldn't be the same without him.
This band was just too talented and so unique with exploration.
So glad they're keeping their ambient rock vibe!
The only thing I want this holiday season is for you guys to remain a band. That alone would be the single most greatest gift ever. Fin.
I keep coming back to this, can't get enough of this band's sound. You guys are talented. Why must all good things in this life be brief?? :c
Initially I thought the beginning was Dylan. However, I talked to Bennett's brother Friday night and he did say it was Bennett singing in the beginning. Shouldn't really be any more discussion about that now >.>
than find out when more would be released?
If that's Bennet singing clean fuck Dylan this should should have been released with Bennet doing all vocals for a temp solution
Holy fuck if they finished this song....fucking nostalgic and perfect. Fuck it's not even finished and it's perfect!!!
'Winter 2013'
Kenneth Wilkinson best year for some 🔥
Now I can't wait, god this will be perfect. Of Machines, thank you for coming back to us. Really, thank you.
I cry every time I hear this song, beautiful, never change your sound OM!!!
I think enough time has elapsed. we all need more of this
Of Machines is still one of my favorite bands of all time. The guitar tapping is what pulled me in. So different from all the other bands in the over populated genre!
They just confirmed that they have completed tracking for a song called "All Along the Grey Scale"!
These guys haven't missed a beat! If this is a preview of anything to come off of Chroma Dreamcoat, it's gonna be amazing!
I can't wait for the ep to be released!!! I've been listening to Native Suns to help cope with missing you guys.
I'm glad to see that you're not letting Rise take this away from us, from you. A simple name change doesn't take away from the fact that I am getting new OM music.

Still a monumental voice Dylan !

of machines are so damn talented, the song almost makes me cry.
But why are they only coming back to make 1 EP?
They are the BEST band in the scene literately.

Why only for 1 EP? Please stay after the EP, please tell the reason why you guys don't want to return, do tours and get signed? What is wrong?
most bands like this don't make very much money. shit some are lucky to have enough for food.
pasa9296
But when you get signed to a label they probably taking care for these things..

From 2 years ago and still waiting..
It's not going to happen. The money is gone and they didn't finish recording more than these demos.
Fucking Dylan Anderson, he took all the money and ran away
I miss of machines.
Glad I'm not the only one to do all of this
I really just can't get enough of this. Please make more!
They are such an amazing band, I really hope they continue to make music
Please finish the ep guys.
it's already been 5 years :(
@@AskingAlexandria620 ;(
this is disapointing
Major talent, guys. I was actually kind of afraid that your return would flop, as it did to me for many other bands I used to love listening to. But after hearing this... I have faith in you guys. Whatever you decide to do, wherever you go in life, just remember that you've left an impact in our lives with your music. You've done something amazing. Don't ever forget that.
Got scared when this went down. Thank you Rise for not being douchey to them.
So glad these guys are back.
Not for long tho :(
God damn Dylan has some fucking pipes. Great control over that voice.
This is like the dream of having to live my life with OM reunited; even for the last time.

definitely dylan at the beginning
So glad you guys are back !! Cant wait to hear the new ep!
CANNOT WAIT
Please stay together...! I missed your music so damn much and now that it´s here again... damn just overwhelming good! You guys are living and loving music and you can hearthat in that song! Of Machines for ever
Need. New. Pants. I can't say enough how awesome it is to hear NEW MUSIC from Of Machines. Maybe now I'll get to see you guys live one day.
I am beyond stoked
This is genuinely going to be fucking amazing. Only thing i'm really looking forward to this winter
6traceur- its much more complicated than that. They're human, they have lives and they have to be able to support themselves.

Thanks a lot for this guys, I really missed you
Cant wait

I NEED MORE.
All I can really say is thank you OM lol
welcome back of machines we truly missed you
Cant wait! These guys are so talented. I anticipating this ep!
It's beyond
Best Post Hardcore band to ever make music RIP
cant stop listen
Winter 2017 - still waiting for this album.
beautiful... as always :')
Sploosh. So excited.
I literally was about to cry when I heard Dylan's voice :') oh how I missed it so.
Still holding on.
so good, so happy, so excited
Such a bummer they disbanded, what an awesome band....amazing music #OfMachines
Looking at your picture not judging well I kinda am but I wouldn't expect you to listen to these niggas x)
They obviously sounded a lil different cus Austin thorton had left the band, still sick tho they would've evolved into something insane
Best song they ever wrote.
I kind of hope this picks up a little. I know I have a HUGE expectation for this album (even though I shouldn't because no matter what it'll be awesome), but this song doesn't really sound like Of Machines. Dylan sounds really differently (It's been years so I can understand why). I just hope it's like their old stuff :) That being said, I still can't wait to hear it even if it's completely different. They are legends. Can't wait.
God I miss these fucking guys
The anticipation is killing me, dudes. Still stoked. :P
How could you not hear that it's Dylan? He's got the most unique and original voice I've ever heard!
In the beginning? It’s Bennett dude. The band publicly came out and said this. You can clearly hear the difference between the two vocalists.
this is so fucking awesome
Im still waiting...
Please release more!
yea I hope it will be a 4-5 minutes song. or even longer... and I really really hope the piano version of becoming close to closure will be on the ep (still hope it will be a full length)
R.I.P :(((((
Omg can't wait of machines forever
Maybe they thought it was funny no one thought it was Dylan, when it actually is. So they were like yeah totally Bennett. Because it's so clear that the cleans are all the same voice..
I hope the full version is longer like the first part.
Miss you guys it’s a bummer
Dylan starts at 0:58 don't know this hear their first album and compare because Dylan's voice is not deep, bennetts sings and screams
Can't wait
I still believe in their comeback... Of machines, if your reading this. Please come back :():
its actually Bennett at the beginning then Dylan sings
The best song :')
They released a statement, stating they pushed back the release date. It'll be out sooner than you know
Sounds great, please make more music! :)
and please guys. make a full length. the best option is if joey sturgis will be the producer cause I would like to hear this blessthefall - hollow bodies sound ... the vocals on this album blends very well ...
it's bennett man
2022 still waiting...
