In this video our very own therapist Taylor is reacting to Nightmare by Polaris
these songs means so much more to me as the guitarist ryan passed away before they could release these music videos with him still around... but I always cry when i see him playing those beautiful lead melodies... and the way the video plays out from 3:30 3:49...
it's a little dark and though I don't think the song was ever even about ryan... it almost foreshadowed the future of his own life...
The cuts from his playing to the skulls in the ground and the vocalist Jamie visibly torn as he sings and leads into the breakdown almost like he's unknowingly expressing the pain of losing ryan before he had even left the world...
And I always feel that the breakdown is ryan telling us...
"don't worry about me guys. I may be gone and I may be missed... but I fought through every day of this life I had when i was here and I made sure to make every moment of it worth living for.
love every moment of it...
bring your colors out between the dark and the light of this world and stay strong.
this life is your canvas to paint on. make sure you make a mark on it while you're still here."
Ryan made a mark and he won't be forgotten.
This whole album is just phenomenal!
It’s a masterpiece.
R.I.P Ryan! Truly gifted talent that left us WAY TOO SOON! 🙏
Glad you are taking the Polaris rabbit hole. Masochist and Above My Head leave plenty to analize. Still waiting for you to find While She Sleeps
6 months ago, let someone move in, unallowed by nsw housing. Said 2 weeks until he left. Then, yellin at me, stealing my food, tobacco, other stuff. On disability, he's on $500 a day. His dog shits and pisses on my carpet, he broke my stove, so cannot cook, and regularly abuses me. I took out restraint orders, not worked. Im so angry. ❤
From Micro: Wow, I'm sorry you are dealing with so much chaos in your very own home. It sounds like you've had to deal with your share of stress lately, and the perspective of just... having *no* good perspective in sight is so frustrating. Under such circumstances, feeling angry is more than understandable. You opened your door to someone but the way they have been treating the environment that you share - and you - is certainly unacceptable. It's like you want to do something good but then it gets ruined... such a brutal way to feel betrayed and to question how to trust others again.
I do hope that this situation can be resolved as soon as possible. You absolutely deserve to feel safe where you live. Please don't hesitate to rely on possible local organizations if you have no family or friend who would help you with this. They may have practical solutions to offer, or at least ways to support you physically and emotionally while you are going through this. I'm rooting for you. <3
From NateTriesAgain: This is a serious drain on the soul...wanted to do a video reply to connect with you about what you wrote. You can view it here: www.loom.com/share/d55007fd95f84e7e88bdbeeeeecd9c07
This song hits deep, the guitarist Ryan passed away just before this song was released to suicide. He was a massive part of the Australian music scene, the three film clips on this album were His last, he will be truly missed
I encourage you to check out the other two singles from this album
It wasnt suicide it was “brain fog”
Omg thank you so much for this. This song already hit me deep and hung on to the lyrics. I’ve teared up so many times and your explanation about made me break down dealing with being “held captive with the confines of your mind”. That’s the line that stuck with me the most. I went through a heartbreaking traumatic separation last year with the woman/wife I’ve been with for 19 years and it broke me so much mentally and emotionally. We got back together thank God but so much damage has been done with me and I find myself driving back in that captivity due to insecurity of trust and feeling like I’m not good enough. That’s awesome you pray and cool you listen to metal as well. Have a blessed day!
From ThriceTheThird: Thanks for sharing your experience and how you relate! I'm sorry that you are going through the pains of heart break and trying to mend relationships. Hope things can continue to move in the direction you hope for. Feel free to share more if you ever want. <3
Hey man I'm sorry that you had to go through that. I can relate to a certain extent because my girlfriend of almost 6 years broke up with me a month ago. It's been super hard and I can't imagine what you had to go through after that much time. The good thing is it makes us stronger in the end after surviving so much pain. I'm really glad to hear that you guys are back together, I can only pray to God that the same thing happens to me. Right now I'm just trying to improve myself for her and I hope she recognizes that. Much love! Life is a learning experience and we are all in it together.
You should do 'Come On' by Oktaf Kanis 🔥
As an Aussie it’s not pol a ris
It pol ar is
Love ur reaction
this song hit me harder after this explanation. i really love this kind of content, react to polaris' overflow next, please!! this song mean so much to me :,)
Hands down my favourite Aussie band. I love you and I love that this exists
I absolutely love this album, and it's heartbreaking to watch Ryan shred. A life gone far too soon.
This band is just amazing they can do no wrong there new album is just something great sadly there guitarist Ryan passed away but there going to keep kicking
Would love for you to react to with regards from the same album. Cheers !
Fantastic song on a fantastic album. Have you listened to Tesseract? Their new album just came out and there are some really fantastic lyrics on it. I highly recommend giving them a listen.
The whole album almost feels retrospectively about Ryan, some of the best metalcore this year.
Aviana's last album is pretty deep, Joel has outdone himself going solo. Obsession or Rage are the go-to. My pick would be Obsession because I hear a lot of my past in it, the frustration of staying with the wrong people and being left alone to deal with the consequences.
(I carried the weight of the world on my shoulders
Face split in two, lived the life of a coward
I started giving up on myself
Stared into darkness with faces I wish I'd forget)
hes got band members now i believe, but he did do most of the songs solo on the cooperation album/collection
What’s crazy is that you were talking about saving someone from drowning and in another song by Polaris called Crooked Path the chorus is:
“Reaching out please take my hand, the water’s getting higher and I can’t understand why I can’t pull you in, do you even care? Do you even want me there?”
If you want a really good one "forgotten" by The Plot in You is an amazing song
Yes yes yessss❤️
If you think they went Hard on this, you should check out Dissipate!! That absolutely BANGS!!!! RIP Ryan!
It felt so relatable cuz I’ve been there before and even now isn’t fully out on the other side
From ThriceTheThird: If you ever feel like sharing more. We are here to listen!
From jbro: I hear that! And agree with Thrice; we would love to hear any part or whole of your story!
❤
You should react to "Guide Us Home" by Currents
good song & chat but Overflow, the single after this one, probably would have been the song with lyrics better suited to your type of analysis. One line in particular stands out to me in that one: 'The things I love, i hold so tight I strangle them to death'
Yessss! I agree with this.
Hi Taylor, you love mental health songs - then Overflow from Polaris will kick you out of your socks :) cheers
Hey. Thank you for sharing these reaction videos and sharing information about mental health issues. I would have one suggestion that you could react to, namely Nightwish's song - How's the Heart. It's a symphonic metal band from Finland and that song is about, as the name suggests, how rarely we really ask others what's really up to us. If you happen to react to this song, I recommend the acoustic live version :) All the best!
