I agree! He really has done an incredible job stepping in and owning it! I swear, I like it better this way than before. This is bar far their best album. Their chemistry just works!
The new Slaves keeps releasing banger after banger... I can listen to the new stuff on repeat without blinking. Don’t get me wrong, Johnny was great too, but man, this slaps!
@@lightfangshadowwolf Slaves became rain city drive after Johnny left, this album was the last one released under the name slaves before they released their new name's self titled album
"We tied the knot, but you were tying a noose..." One of my fave lyrics in recent years, seriously awesome. Looking forward to the new album, this new material is amazing
"we tied the knot but you were tying a noose" never in my life have i related to a comment about a marriage in my life. and it makes me so happy to know i got out of my ex husband's web
Scott McGuire ten years here for me too. been stabbed in the back countless times but never like this. been about seven or eight months and while some days are a struggle i'm moving on little by little.
The fact that Slaves didnt slow down after Jonny's departure is remarkable. Like I remember seeing them live, then jonny was gone and they were like here's a taste of our new music. And it taste good.
Slaves is honestly probably one of my favorite bands of this current generation. I miss Jonny but I feel like everything sounds a lot better overall with this new singer, everything's so fresh and each song is better than the last. It's fucking unreal
Solid track. Can’t wait for the new album. I’ve said this before. Every Band that Jonny exits, seems to get better and better, they become more relevant, more productive, more talented. He seems to have a tendency to bring certain people together in all of his chaos, and when he falls victim to his own chaos and leaves the lives of these people. They flourish in an absolute state of grandeur. Dance Gavin Dance, Emarosa, and now Slaves. I called this. And by no means do I mean to associate what I’m hearing in this track with Jonny at all. All I’m saying as that these guys are gonna soar, their sound is refined, the vocalist is making his new home comfortable. I love the modern pop elements in these tracks. And I can’t wait for the rest of the album. Thanks for another great release guys.
I literally screamed when they retweeted my tweet. I can't wait to hear more of Matts vocals and the future of this band. They literally give me chills with how good they are lately.
Why did this come at the right time?? I have been thinking a lot about how my youth is/has been wasted on a bad relationship. Very much can relate to this song right now
Ughhhh underrated af ! The part when he says “how will I know if you’re telling the truth , a part of me hates the way I’m wasting my youth” fuckkkkkkk
Every song so far has a certain style but they all feel really unique and fresh. The instrumentals all go together really well on this one especially, especially impressed by the drummer and the grooves he’s laid down on each track. Oh and the chorus on this one is gold, def one of my faves.
I returned here years later and I don`t understand why i didn`t leave a like 4 years earlier?? That was a complete masterpiece! Thnks God, I can do it now. Great song!
People often referred to this band as johnny with backing music and I'll admit I was sceptical about what would become of them when he left but Matt has done an amazing job and the rest of the guys are shining too. So much talent we never got to see finally escaping and I love it.
Gets better the more you listen to it, the electronics are really nice, the lyrics are great, and the drumming is really dynamic. My god it's like this band is reborn, absolutely can't wait til the album is out
I hope we get the full album sometime soon, It would definitely be one where I love every single song on there! I've always been a fan of Matt's voice, I'm looking forward to seeing what else Slaves releases in the future
Never cared for them previously because of Johnny, yet I am eagerly anticipating this new album. Every song has been banger, especially with Matt’s melodies. The instruments are exciting me a lot more too.
This song reminds me of my previous relationship, I honestly regret being with him but he taught me a life lesson. “You were tying a noose” I felt that so hard, being in that relationship, it felt too hard to breathe.
I wasn't a huge fan when Johnny was here. Nothing against them, just never grabbed me. But these singles with Matt have been mind-blowing. I'm literally stunned at how every song gets better and better. This album needs to drop right now. I'm practically giddy right now, I need to see these guys live.
Solid track. Johnny always sets the bar hi, that is why every singer from every bad he leaves needs to be just as good or better, this new guy is amazing
Reminds me & my recent ex of 5 years (19 till 25) she wasted some of my greatest years I had to just lie, string me along & hurt me in the end. She had no remorse & it left me so broken. So I can definitely vibe to this awesome song! Keep up the great writing my dude!
That new direction is so incredibly good, the drums and guitars mixed with the electronic "more pop-style" elements, together with Matt's style of singing... my favourites so far are "Prayers" and "Talk to a friend", but I love the others too and I'm thrilled for the LP in August! This new style really goes under my skin and makes me feel more alive, capturing moments and emotions I could never express. Thank you, keep it up guys!
Awesome song guys! Looking forward to more. Definitely got more interested you guys and the new singer after listening to your Scene Daddy podcast interview.
I think Matt is a good fit for Slaves and the production overall has certainly improved. I really wanted that last chorus to have some variation from the others with some crazy runs or that distortion we heard on "Bury a Lie."
I'm honestly diggin matts voice. Can't get enough.
Lyrics too bro. His Slaves lyrics are better than Jinny’s lol. Hate to go there but went there lol
We can't either 🤍
Who isn't? Me and my wife are obsessed l
I agree! He really has done an incredible job stepping in and owning it! I swear, I like it better this way than before. This is bar far their best album. Their chemistry just works!
Yeah autotune is pretty nice.
The new Slaves keeps releasing banger after banger... I can listen to the new stuff on repeat without blinking. Don’t get me wrong, Johnny was great too, but man, this slaps!
Ridiculous how good the are! This is incredible!!
Slaves? This isn't slaves.... it says rain city youth.... who I've never heard b4 now. I know slaves got a new singer but now I'm confused
@@lightfangshadowwolf the intro says "Slaves" in the video... and a Google search showed they changed their name 😁 easy.
@@lightfangshadowwolf Slaves became rain city drive after Johnny left, this album was the last one released under the name slaves before they released their new name's self titled album
The growth of this man from the voice to now is INSANE. Never stops impressing.
Imo he is only going to get better with more experience and working on his craft. He stepped into some big shoes and done phenomenal!✌
THE VOICE? What? That's insane lol
@Nomzi Yeah, he was the runner up on S7 about 9.5 years ago
I can’t wait to hear what they bring to the table this time. I swear each song gets better and better!
All the chills! They just get better and better! TO BETTER DAYS!
This song and their new singer are really growing on me.
My guy Zack killed the verses. Hyped for the drum play through 🥁⚔️
Everyone killed it! Another amazing song from an amazing band🤘
❤️❤️❤️
Bro you are doing amazing with this band, Matt!
You're killin it Matt
Really glad this band didnt change with the new singer. This track is incredible.
"We tied the knot, but you were tying a noose..." One of my fave lyrics in recent years, seriously awesome. Looking forward to the new album, this new material is amazing
i thought he said you were tired and loose, goddamn. thoties be wasting my youth for real
where does he say this? cant find the timestamp.
Regardless of the lineup, this band has been my daily listening music for nearly 6 years, and I hope that never changes.
"we tied the knot but you were tying a noose" never in my life have i related to a comment about a marriage in my life. and it makes me so happy to know i got out of my ex husband's web
Yep, same! 10 years down the drain though 😒
Same here!!! ✌️❤️
I'm going to be getting a divorce soon, and that lyric stung! i FEEL you on this

My love for this band it's getting bigger and bigger
Those vocals during the chorus are super awesome. Nice work guys
Picturesque, Day Seeker, Sunsleep & Slaves, what y’all think of that lineup to tour??
Love that. Add awaken I am though.
Add Captives

Could not have said it any better myself!
Not the case with Emarosa in my opinion.
Yea I don't think Emarosa is doing so hot.
The DGD and Slaves lucked out on lineups.
Damn really? I love Peach Club :o
@@eldiablo4160 I agree. Emarosa went downhill after Jonny left.
This tour would be sooooo good I think...
Dance Gavin Dance
Dayseeker
Slaves
Thornhill.
Gave me goosebumps fckn yes please
Why don’t we slap in emarosa for the lols tho haha
And sunsleep
Too Close To Touch
I feel sorry for everyone who hasn't discovered them yet
You already know that the album's gonna be a masterpiece when all of the singles are lit !
I like the Direction this band is going 🤘🏼
This band just keeps getting better and better! So rad to see artists evolve and mature.
I literally screamed when they retweeted my tweet. I can't wait to hear more of Matts vocals and the future of this band. They literally give me chills with how good they are lately.
Better than anything on mainstream rock. I love lesser known bands.
so this album is already rocking cause all their songs ROCK
I'm loving the direction this band is going in!!!
Literally my favourite underrated band right now!
Why did this come at the right time?? I have been thinking a lot about how my youth is/has been wasted on a bad relationship. Very much can relate to this song right now
these choruses just keep getting better and better wow
Every single... is gold! I want the album now!
Ughhhh underrated af ! The part when he says “how will I know if you’re telling the truth , a part of me hates the way I’m wasting my youth” fuckkkkkkk

August 7th my dude 🤘🏼
Never cared for them previously because of Johnny, yet I am eagerly anticipating this new album. Every song has been banger, especially with Matt’s melodies. The instruments are exciting me a lot more too.
Cant wait till this album releases, and concerts resume because every single so far has been amazing all around vocally and instrumentally
What an AWESOME song! This album is going to be amazing!!!
This song reminds me of my previous relationship, I honestly regret being with him but he taught me a life lesson. “You were tying a noose” I felt that so hard, being in that relationship, it felt too hard to breathe.
The lyrics, the music, the videos all just keep getting better and better 😍😍🔥🔥
Lyrics don't get the praise it deserves. Love every new singles lyrics.
@@MariosKJ I can't wait to meet him 👌 Crazy how much the lyrics resonate with me
I appreciate y’all 🙏
Y'all are kings of melodies
"To better days" the best album 👏👏👏
The truth!!!
Kings of the catchy chorus 😌
I wasn't a huge fan when Johnny was here. Nothing against them, just never grabbed me. But these singles with Matt have been mind-blowing. I'm literally stunned at how every song gets better and better. This album needs to drop right now. I'm practically giddy right now, I need to see these guys live.
man that dude can sing!
This track is straight fire! I love everything about it 💚💜🖤
Good lord, every track so far. Gotta love em!
On a side depressing note, alot of them have been able to relate my past relationship.
this band is still doing great despite losing the best singer of the human history. respect. great song.
Came for Jonny. Stayed for the band with Matt. You guys are slowly becoming my favorite band!
I can’t wait for the album! I’m so excited!
FIRE as always
This new guy is crushing it
I can already tell I’m going to love this entire album. Every single song has been a banger so far🤘
if you're married this song hits different. absolutely love the direction this band is taking
If you’re married but I’m an unhealthy marriage right? I hope that married people don’t feel like this!
Song just sung my life for me. Wow. I'm still here to hear this. And life is great 7 years later. !!
You guys keep doing an excellent job. Matt is an amazing vocalist and the music is stellar!
It's been like 1 year since this music video was premiered, and I still love this song.
Solid track. Johnny always sets the bar hi, that is why every singer from every bad he leaves needs to be just as good or better, this new guy is amazing
Dude their lyrics just hit you and make you think
Reminds me & my recent ex of 5 years (19 till 25) she wasted some of my greatest years I had to just lie, string me along & hurt me in the end. She had no remorse & it left me so broken. So I can definitely vibe to this awesome song! Keep up the great writing my dude!
I’m so excited to buy this album!!
Seriously can’t stop replaying this song, good stuff, can’t wait for your album guys :)
Keeps getting better and better. Matt was perfect decision. So good! 🔥🔥🔥
Goosebumps!!!!
Can you just please release the album already? All of your songs excites me. Huhu. I can't wait to hear all of them.
This is my fav song man .... SO GOOD
Just popped up in my recommendations, and I’m damn proud it did! You guys got a new fan!
Matt got the look and the voice, I’m so in love 😍
Awesomely amazing, love this band. They keep getting better and better. Love this song ❤️

My 1 fav song
SOO STOKED! CANNOT WAIT!
I've never been happier about a band's lead singer transition 👌
Great single as always!
Gr8 band, like the music.🎸🎸🎸🎸
Lovely, Bros!
The vocalist is awesome 👏
I need more. Hope you guys get bigger than before!💟
This new singer I like him. Very great tunes
You lads can’t write a bad song. That was epic! Looking forward to more.
Awesome song guys! Looking forward to more. Definitely got more interested you guys and the new singer after listening to your Scene Daddy podcast interview.
They really put the effort into changing the name on all of these videos from slaves to rain city drive. Dedication.
Edit: Hashtags are still there.
I think Matt is a good fit for Slaves and the production overall has certainly improved. I really wanted that last chorus to have some variation from the others with some crazy runs or that distortion we heard on "Bury a Lie."
The drumming on this is 🔥
love the vibes that offered in this mv
This album is incredible.
fire! killing it
I am loving everything new that they are releasing! Keep doing what you're doing...
Love the drum so much !! sounds pretty solid
idk anything about drum stuff but i love the snare sounds since bury a lie release 🔥
The wait was definitely worth it ❤🔥 You guys never disappoint your fans. Keep up the awesome work ❤
My new favourite band it gives me feeling of nervs... listening today😮😮
Meu Deus, eu achei q a Slaves n iria sobreviver sem o Jonny por ser mt fã, mas essa música aí é covardia.
There music keeps getting better. I love them so much!
Might explode if the album isn't next but SO FUCKING HYPED!!
can't stop listening
Amazingly awesome! Cheers from India!
