@@trevorwhatever2050 it was totally there just in a minor sense compared to today. i think in 2011 it was just coming around to forming and having a name. this is definitely some kind of proto-djent in its historical role. materially it basically is djent right? i agree but i think its almost before djent was really a thing in the popular conscience of the hardcore and metal scene. hope that makes sense.
@@shoemender972 I get what you're saying. Maybe at the time back then they were somewhat ahead of the times compared to today especially. I guess I just personally always thought of them with the other djent gods of the time
These ones and Structure were definitely the most major crypto-influencers of djent-melodmetalcore mix's avalanche. Their songs are the mead in the ears. Far ahead of any gojira, Architects, northlane, erra or other sta(o)mp bands writing without a true flight in the infinity of great spirit
That clean vocal segment gives me mad enter shakari vibes. Just rediscovering this after 7 years. Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza will most likely be on repeat later tonight now lol
Mate I commented something similar on their track "she is well and nothing can be ill". Fully agree man, to me it sounds like if early Shikari had good production.
I miss this shit so much. First concert I ever went to, Glass Cloud opened with this song, and after that I didn't even care about the band I came to see. I need more GC shows and music.
He plays the end a little differently now (and some dissonant chords instead of bending a few times) - He streamed himself playing this track at home a while ago on youtube.
the production on this album is a revolution to me. I hope that someday i can make a production like this. Thanks you glas cloud for making such a great song. I hope that you guys will be together again in the future
Josh just released new GC clips on Instagram recently. What I've been told however is that Emmure/Glass Cloud are going to be the same exact bands, except with their respective vocalists. Frankie/Jerry.
Nicholas Talarico Really now? I would love for GC to make some new music, there isn't enough bands out there like this for fans like us to appreciate. Everyone has dumbed down their sound these days.
i got into GC when this dropped. god, all i wish for in life is for this band to get back together. forever one of my all time favorites with only ONE release. it’s blasphemy. 💀
seen them live in Sacramento at the Boardwalk had no idea who they were, got down in the pit because this specific song grabbed my soul by the balls and dragged into becoming a fan. Salutes From the Westcoast!
It's pretty awesome that this is the first time that I've ever listened to this band, and I click on this video and the footage is from the venue in my city that every big band goes to now. I plan to go to Shaka's to see everyone and be in a few videos, now. It's the only good thing about Virginia Beach!
Glass Cloud is even crazier live. This video can't even compare to how nuts they were at the NorVa on the 23rd. Favorite Band. I talked to them all, shook all of their hands, and got their autographs after buying one of their shirts. Loved them.
Look at yourself (emmure/josh travis) is one of my all time favourite albums. So i had to check out his older work. Only to realise i saw this band support blessthefall well over a decade ago here in england. But cause they weren't the band I'd come to see i have no recollection of it at all. Absolutely devastated.
Yo, Josh! Chandler from Swing City here! Ran across the Types of Guitarists at NAMM vid and caught a glimpse of you in it. Good to see you're doing so well. I am NOT surprised! Peace!
Toris Williams people forget about Suffocations best years having a black drummer. Terrence Hobbs is a dominating guitarist too. Makes this shit sound like pussy crust.
Casey Rauch And doesn't Oceano have a black vocalist? To be honest if I just randomly jumped into a song without a video I would have assumed he was white.
people bring it up cause yes there is some black dudes in the metal scene seeing a black guy pumping death metal in his car is like seeing a unicorn, it never happens, i think its fuckin great! these guys fuckin kill it too, now show me a black girl that's into this music and after i pinch myself i'll be asking her out, after i check twice to see if she's real, music aint about color though its about feeling, and whatever music makes you feel good fuckin pump it, whatever race you are if you love metal then you're family in my book
+Dojix A: He only has 8 strings B: He does. Frequently. Do you not have ears? Do you not hear all the layers filled with melody? C: Taking one song as an examination of a guitarist's ability is lolsy.
+jeleopard A. Oh, my mistake. I thought he had a 9 string 'cause his Legator signature model is a 9 string. Must've switched up recently. B. It's not THAT layered. But I know what you mean, I'm just making Djokes anyway. C. I didn't do that, I said nothing to do with his overall skill. I've heard other songs from this band, he is quite good.
I'm so sick of everyone deciding and labelling what genre bands belong to. From what I've seen, everyone Is told they're wrong about It. Maybe let the band decide where they belong? Or what they want to be? And if they have no say, then why is it so important that they belong to any genre? Don't label them at all and overall just enjoy the music =)!
BLVE青 Genres are objective not subjective you fucking moron, they're factual. A band doesnt decide what they are, it doesnt matter because a band either is or isnt something.
He's still in. During May of 2011, the band confirmed that Danza IIII is in the works. In the meantime of its creation, guitarist Josh Travis has joined Jerry Roush's new band Glass Cloud as a side-project with their debut album, The Royal Thousand, being released on July 3rd, 2012.
"I'm a metal purist edgy-king, everything that strays from pure technical 8 string jazz induced pureness is awful, and everyone who listens to different music than me is just a conformist loser."
\Zeyn/ Everything about this song is generic, its just fresh and more raw than a lot of this style. Those guitar riffs have been way over done, but they sound good.
Roderick Peterson "hardly a metal band"? How did you come to that conclusion? Call it prog, call it djent, call it whatever you want, it's still metal as fuck and they're going it right.
dlawless88 I don't really care if someone like this. This band, particularly, while being heavy, it's just not metal enough. Yeah, they have metal influences in their music, but overall, the riffing (pretty much just chug), the song structures, the layers, the vocals, even the mix! are more akin to other extreme genres of music (If you didn't know, Metal isn't the only genre of music with heavy, extreme stuff). To me it sounds like a modern hardcore band with a metal overlay painted on it. Also, they are hardly prog... what's with this tendency of naming everything with syncopated riffs and drumming as prog? Prog is more versatile, extensive and complex than that, kinda like AAL or Gordian Knot, certainly not Glass Cloud. Just an opinion, don't get oversensitive about it.
dlawless88 You were acting oversensitive after I said "Do YOU even metal?" in response to you implying this band is a genre of music they don't belong to. Kinda like saying "Do you even Blues?" on an Allan Holdsworth video. :v
Saw them tonight at SOMA and I was backstage with the band I work with and Jerry gave me a hat while we were chilling. Really cool guys. Same is for Upon a Burning Body and Whitechapel.
Omari Thompson I went for free because I was on a guest list plus I got a really nice hat so I didn't pay a penny all night, therefore my opinion is biased. Overall I'd say the show was fine but in my opinion Cloud really played the best that night. I think I enjoyed talking to the bands more than the show though. I have a quick video of them performing on my channel if you want a look and some others that are private so let me know if you want to see them too so you can maybe compare what you experienced with what I did.
this guitarist is so crazy live that I couldn't tell if he was even playing his guitar hahaha. He had so much energy, and after figuring out that he was in Tony Danza I could only figure that he was actually playing his riffs because he was just moving his hands all over the place haha. Great performance.

Had to come back in 2019, wasnt disappointed!🧡🧡

2024: still rips
That drum groove at 1:52 is hot money fire
the drummer and bassist are in GlassJAw now

Probably why he got brought up to Glassjaw. He's badass, man.

Is that the guitarist from the tony danza tapdance extravaganza?
Thanks, he's insane

He actually produced emmures entire new album
His name is Josh Travis fyi

Well they certainly have a stage presence! Josh Travis can moooooove! lol
LOL
the production on this album is a revolution to me. I hope that someday i can make a production like this. Thanks you glas cloud for making such a great song. I hope that you guys will be together again in the future
I love heavy metal with melodic vocals. I love screaming and growling but when you throw in singing out of nowhere, I'm sold.
still slaps 12 years later 🔥🔥🔥
Still SLAPPING this shit is so hard
Glasscloud needs to come back.
What a fucking tone man, they really had their shit together on production. I need another Glass Cloud album more than anything right now.
It really is a shame that they are on a hiatus. Such a badass sound and this is all we get for now unfortunately...

+Jack Gough maybe ERRA as well

Ha
lmao i like weezer
FIrst two weezers owned, especially pinkerton... that comment though.
can't be angry
Hahaha! Good one man :D
omg how have i just heard these guys... amazing
good cleans, not like those other puberty bound vocals. props
I would love to see them live, it looks like they put on an amazing show!
The vocals are unique in that way though, that's what I love about GC.
Glass Cloud is even crazier live. This video can't even compare to how nuts they were at the NorVa on the 23rd. Favorite Band. I talked to them all, shook all of their hands, and got their autographs after buying one of their shirts. Loved them.

"LISTEN TO THAT TONE"
Dude, yes.
Meshuggah!!! Lmao xD
Fucking tiresome them kids
Suits the mix :)
These guys always put on a hell of a good show!
i fucking miss this band so much fuck
me too mate. danza too, even more actually
pioneers fasho
sensing a really nice Danza tone here...
That's because Josh was from The Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza.
Boom.
Josh Travis is a monster...love everything he's done but Danza was my favorite. They were so heavy and raw.
Just saw them last night along with Issues, Secrets, Like Moths to Flames, and Silverstein. Was an incredible show!
Totally lost my shit at 2:51
Well fine it cuz that was horrible.
yo, check this dude right here hahahaha
they were so sick live. amazing band. this was at Shakas in va beach
now this is my kind of rap
Saw these guys live in Denver in 2012 epic!
Danza+Clean Vocals+The Chariot=Glasscloud. In the best way possible. \m/
Starting off 2018 nostalgic af
these guys have the best stage presence....ever......of all time
lil wayne on the drums
The hairstyle gave it away. xD
indeed :D
At least its not on the guitar xD
good point xD
He lacks the musical talent for the most simple instrument, so no
Yo, Josh! Chandler from Swing City here! Ran across the Types of Guitarists at NAMM vid and caught a glimpse of you in it. Good to see you're doing so well. I am NOT surprised! Peace!
Hate those comments about black people being in the band, it's normal for black guys to listen to metal, relax
I think the problem is these kids have never met a black guy, so they're just fucking shocked.
Toris Williams people forget about Suffocations best years having a black drummer. Terrence Hobbs is a dominating guitarist too. Makes this shit sound like pussy crust.

Dude... New favourite band.
Is that the guitarist from Extravaganza???
Matthew Rivera Yeah
Now he is guitarist in Emmure
Theyre coming to Calgary on may 22nd with Veil of Maya and The Contortionist. So pumped.
The fact that this live video is not at all synced with the song is making my eyes hurt.
But my ears are loving every second.

a breath of good hard music after 2009 , glass cloud to cold especially the royal thousand
can not wait to see these guys in October!

Saw them tonight at SOMA and I was backstage with the band I work with and Jerry gave me a hat while we were chilling. Really cool guys. Same is for Upon a Burning Body and Whitechapel.
