My favorite album of all-time came out in the 2000's. It's not thrash metal though...and many hardcore fans of the band would argue that it's not even their best album...but MY favorite is: Symphony X - The Odyssey. I'm 54 and have been listening to 'metal' since the mid to late '70s, so I'm not just some snot-nosed fanboi, but seriously, The Odyssey is my favorite all-time.
The slower sections and the pause near the end are so evocative of being in low gravity/bursting through cloudcover or jumping into a system, respectively.
@@PNW Man, I really recommend you to check out that song! I'm serious, that song (and especially its clean interlude) ALWAYS gives me the goosebumps, even though I've listened to it ad infinitum already. In fact, no. I mean, yeah, check out that song next. But then, after that, listen to their entire discography. You simply won't believe how absurdly genius a human can get (yeah, because, as far as I understand, most of this marvelous music is composed by a single man, David DiSanto, who's also the band's frontman). To summarize how I see the three albums I would say: Black Future (the first one) is the most cinematic, experimental and SFX-ish; Outer Isolation is the most proggy and techy, and it has the most rhythmic and melodic experimentation, and also the highest amount of interesting interludes; and Terminal Redux is the consummation of all their genius: it combines the SFX-ish vibe from the first album with the technicality and colorful riffing of the second, and then adds some truly black metal influences on top, and some other very surprising and refreshing influences. All three albums are absolute masterpieces. From beginning to end.
I always felt like Outer Isolation was better because of the way the music encapsulates the theme so goddamn well. The songs really *sound* like Outer Isolation, like a “fear of the unknown” evil instead of Black Future’s more “violence and horrors” evil.
The Terminal Redux album is the Master Of Puppets/ Rust In Peace of the 2010's

FUCKING AGREE!!!!
It's like Rust in Peace meets The Sound of Perserverance meets The Wall. Stunning musical achievement.
You just made it to the Vektor facebook page and guess what - David likes you!
Vektor owns your soul now. Welcome brother
Vektor shared this on their Facebook dude! \m/
Have they? I'd better go back and check what I said 🤔
mind expansion is a common side effect of vektor.
Was lucky enough to see Vektor live twice in the same year. Live execution is bar none, absolutely insane. All their 3 albums are thrash metal history
I wish I could listen to this band for the first time all over again.
Nice Xentrix shirt! Really underrated thrash band

Really great band.
They are one of the best trash band in history. Please try their song called Recharging the void
Then maybe don't call them "trash". "Trash metal" is not a genre. It's called "thrash metal". Trash = bad
Black Future is pretty much flawless.

My bad, it's just one letter
Don't kill me
DEEP INSIDE AMEBIC DARK INVADING
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Ok, this guy should really listen to Venus Project and its SPECTACULARLY BEAUTIFUL clean interlude!
You know I can hear you right?

Like the XentriX shirt. For Whose Advantage is a classic
Holy Shit, im off to research this band... best tech metal ive heard in over a decade(maybe ever??)
This got me interested but 'Recharging the void' blew me away ua-cam.com/video/Xpdhv6NBIEk/v-deo.html
Pictures, Noise and Words
Please do more Vektor
All three albums are masterpieces. Have fun
Recharging the void is even better when you listen to the album in full
Great reactions l, liked the vid,subbed waiting for more Vektor
Thanks dude.
I assume that I don't usually like "reaction videos" because it's always the same but you entertain me
So sad they broke up though T_T Every album is fucking insane.
@The Mechanic yeah I miss Frank on bass but Dead by Dawn sounds awesome!!!!!
that initial scream tho.....Angel of Death anyone? :3
black metal???? hahahahahaha that was very funny cause fucking vektor is thash
Black Future LP , is far superior to this full length, what do you guys think?
Black Future is a full length though
Doh, you’re right. Thanks¡
Album as a whole yeah, but this song in particular is one of their best for sure. Only topped by some from Terminal Redux imo.
