Yeah I mean kmac did a nice version but it’s not one of those times where you can act like he did better than the original. Dan’s just got the perfect interpretation of this song, especially with the grit he adds to his voice in the latter half.
Damn TesseracT have so much awesome potential. You don't just hear djent in this, you hear Crimson, Floyd, Tool - they're pushing for those same heights as the greats. So exciting it is just the beginning of their career and I can't wait to see where these guys are in a couple of years.
@@HaroldnolikeGeraldyeah cause thats the theme of the song Genius, it's bassed on a real case the singer encountered on his former years as a police officer
this song is actually really dark considering how softly it hits the ear. its still an absolute masterpiece. I love the part where he says "ill never say a word of this. I swear" the instrumental part that corresponds with these lyrics always sends chills up my spine
"I live tonight through methadone highs." Wow! I was on methadone maintenance for 5 years. I listened to this mind-blowing band almost every day for the last year, on the way TO and FROM the methadone clinic. TesseracT has moved me emotionally ever since I first heard them. Synergy?? maybe....
Nursing student and fellow Tesseract lover here. Just read your comment and it peaked my curiosity from a professional point of view. Looking for real-world input on the shit im learning about. Im aware its two years late, but how is life post methadone treatment? any changes in daily life? habits? cravings? appreciate the input man, and godspeed to you
Hey I just turned 24, have been off methadone for almost a year after 3 years mmt + 3 years of downtown use prior. It hasn't been going very good, my friends gave up on me while I was still on it, my family aren't very supportive, and I have had 3 major accidents ( broken left radius, right elbow, and fractured spine) but I am eating healthy, have most range of motion back and start uni in 6 days studying classical composition with piano so hopefully I meet some more friends there. I think a huge thing you guys should do is try and get your patients to eat enough healthy food and drink plenty of water, as well as exercise; It's made all the difference in my recovery. But yeah I do think about opiates every hour of my life and drink 3-5 bottles of red a week. Just try to stay compassionate and push your patients forward as my case managers were stuck in the 9-5 drudgery mentality (not trying to take the blame away from myself). Let me know if you want to hear my music or read anything I've written. Ciao
Hellion6325 There was an interview in which Amos stated that Dan was a policeman and that April is based on one of his experiences :P Unfortunately, I don't remember the website :/
Absolute fucking masterpiece. This band has helped me through years of suffering with addiction and depression and i always come back. Love these guys ❤
Here is the wikipedia version: "Djent is an 'underground' genre of Heavy Metal. The word "djent" is an onomatopoeia for a heavily palm-muted, distorted guitar chord. It is considered to have been inspired by tech-metal band Meshuggah. Typically, the word is used to refer to music that makes use of this sound, to the sound itself, or to the scene that revolves around it. Its meaning is the subject of much debate, and there is some controversy in regards to its classification as a new subgenre"
Anyone coming from Kmac I love his cover so much but I can never get enough of Daniel Tompkin's voice. I wouldn't say I prefer the cover as much as I respect it
""A deep engrained lust for possession Modern sundowns break me I like to watch things burn down soft and gently I need to watch her abused 'til I'm satisfied Never... never See tonight through bloodshot eyes I'll wait 'til you can see me here Left so long alone Undressed tonight forsaken skin You mean nothing nothing No you mean nothing to me Won't you feel bad while you're trashing out? Makes me feel sick to know she's had enough Time and time again You see tonight through bloodshot eyes You mean nothing nothing No you mean nothing at all I'll never say a word of this I swear I swear Never... never I hope you know I live tonight through methadone highs This life is over""
This song got me through some hard times... Not even a djent/prog guy either. Here I am, back here after 4+ years of not hearing this song. Still has the same impact.
Fuck yes. I just discovered this song and had to pause it too look up Meshuggah because I couldn't quite remember what song did that intro remind me of.
The huge sounding spacious part at 3:14 just freezes time for me everytime I hear it! It gives me chills, invades my brain and paralyses my whole body. It's fucking incredible that part...
i broke my leg from getting hit by a car riding my bike at night. i was listening to this song when it happened in september 2011. then i broke the same leg again in April 2012....weird as fuck. the day before 4/20 too, fml
I love this song. Just learned of this band. I don't care for their other songs, too metal for me, but this song, THIS SONG MOVES ME. So thank you to whoever made this video for supplying the lyrics and the graphics. It just made it mean that much more to me. Thank you.
I will check it out, thank you!! I knew that had a couple of albums, but I didn't know which one would cater to me the way this song did. ;-) I didn't know their singer had left and returned. Is there a story behind that?
Molly A. Block in their statement the reason for parting ways with their current singer, Ashe, was that 'they had found theirselves in different places, creatively', whatever that means.
la escucho una y mil veces... saca a relucir sentimientos dentro de uno en un vaivén de emociones... una pieza de obra maestra... aunque algo depresiva la letra (suicidio y desepción amorosa)... simpemente genial =)
Genuinely though I was listening to KMAC then. BTW love you guys, I remember seeing you live by accident in Bristol with Karnivool, amazing night... bought a used signed drum skin.
You gotta listen to the whole "One" album (the album has April) My favourite would be Acceptance or Origin I have been listening to that album non stop and i don't get tired of it
This video explains perfectly what i felt for someone who didnt care at all............. now i feel nothing... You mean nothing, nothing No you mean nothing at all I'll never say a word of this I swear, I swear Never...never I hope you know I live tonight through methadone highs This life is over yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
sounds good feels good its like if my brain was a bunch of musical instruments put together this music is playing all of them with perfect tuning like a band of harpies playing my brain
Thanks Kmac for teaching us this beautiful song!
Kmac brought me here
can I be proud and disappointed at the same time?
@@kunalpai7118 he brought me here too :)

oh cool tesseract did a cover of kmacs song
Tbh i prefer the original

Same with me
Memelord has shed a light to us
@Øli Macabre DUDE I FEEL LIKE AN IDIOT FOR NEVER LISTENING TO THESE GUYS!!

this aged well! You guys are awesome as well! Been a fan of both you and Tess for years now, keep up the great work!
@@franlovelsimic8421 Lol same here. I was surprised to see this comment. :)
Djent isn't a genre
I hear abuse and domestic violence unfortunately

I know it's 4 years later. Hope you made it through the fog Brian.
Stay strong, brothers. If in doubt, music will get you through. I wish you both well.
For those who don't know, this song is about sexual abuse.
Dan Tompkins was a policeman, and this song is based on one of the criminals he faced ;)
he was a policeman? .____.
Yep :P
do you have source on thislol

3:08 to 3:45 my god that groove!!! so much groove!!!!
This music makes my brain secrete serotonin.
This song always touches me. Still one of their best songs in my opinion.
His voice is quite angelic 😊
Thanks Kmac.
You're a god.
Absolute fucking masterpiece. This band has helped me through years of suffering with addiction and depression and i always come back. Love these guys ❤
I freaking love this song. This is a masterpiece.
♥ItsKara♥ 5 minute long masterpiece... hmmm....
yeah... not possible.
good song though
ffta707 IT'S A MASTERPIECE. :C
ffta707 What, in your opinion, is the minimum length of a song for it to be considered acceptable?
+ffta707 4:49 masterpiece actually :)
I was here before kmac, but i now have a greater appreciation since kmac. ❤
Soft and Djently
Always my favorite part :)
nice

3:29 the most relaxing melody ever
This is devastatingly beautiful
Progressive Music is still alive!
Anyone coming from Kmac I love his cover so much but I can never get enough of Daniel Tompkin's voice. I wouldn't say I prefer the cover as much as I respect it
The juxtaposition of writing beautiful music and singing painfully dark lyrics over it.
Also
Thanks Kmac for bringing us here
..soft and djently.. This is the genre of Tesseract
Wow this sounds a lot like Karnivool.. I've listened to a lot of TesseracT but never this and the similarity's surprising! I like it
This is terrific. Really atmospheric and menacingly heavy at the same time. The clean guitar playing is fantastic.
i love this band with all of my heart!
the best song of Tesseract, in my opinion
"I live tonight through methodone highs" Beautiful vocals right there! I'm glad Daniel is back with Tesseract!
Those sounds...so incredible!
""A deep engrained lust for possession Modern sundowns break me I like to watch things burn down soft and gently I need to watch her abused 'til I'm satisfied Never... never See tonight through bloodshot eyes I'll wait 'til you can see me here Left so long alone Undressed tonight forsaken skin You mean nothing nothing No you mean nothing to me Won't you feel bad while you're trashing out?

I didn't realize how dark this song is
Can't say I have a favorite song on the album. There are so many awesome songs. But, as with most the others..THIS ROCKS.
His manliness comes from the sensible side of Tesseract !
The first 17 seconds really, REALLY reminds me of 'The Last Vigil' by Meshuggah. Anyone???
Fuck yes. I just discovered this song and had to pause it too look up Meshuggah because I couldn't quite remember what song did that intro remind me of.
@@bithon5242 exactly the same for me :)
This is one of the best songs I know.
Kmac just turned this from a near unknown song to number on the youtube playlist
R u fuckin kidding man? Unknown song! really ;D
Tesseract wasn't unknown, but thanks to Kmac they has gained one more fan.
You sound like the generic dumb fanboy of any youtuber
Ffs.... Yep because life is about being famous and money
You can compare them to whoever you like but to me, they have their own sound, and that sound is fresh and awesome.
Seeing these guys tonight!
They were awesome!
Seen them supporting Karnivool. Both bands are great live.
Best "new" band... ONE is simply beatiful. Love it.
The huge sounding spacious part at 3:14 just freezes time for me everytime I hear it! It gives me chills, invades my brain and paralyses my whole body. It's fucking incredible that part...
Reminds me of The Last Vigil by Meshuggah
That makes me warm inside. You now have a little place in my heart.
love that groovin' bass!
I saw them with BTBAM and Animals As Leader, it was the best show I've ever been to.
A song that hits emotions without leaving them uneducated
this band is going to be huge!
how right you were.
Saw these guys live a few hours ago, fucking tore it up with this song! Beautiful.
Soft and djently.
Pigly_Jainda Squad The bass intro was pretty tasty live.
Xenoforge78 Twisty fresh? :D
Pigly_Jainda Squad Definitely
Xenoforge78 Yippers. :D

He's not? I didn't know that. The singer is what made this song so good!
If this song moves you, then their album called Altered State is gonna make you fly, believe me.
(Today's news: their previous singer, Dan, is back)
I will check it out, thank you!! I knew that had a couple of albums, but I didn't know which one would cater to me the way this song did. ;-) I didn't know their singer had left and returned. Is there a story behind that?
Molly A. Block
in their statement the reason for parting ways with their current singer, Ashe, was that 'they had found theirselves in different places, creatively', whatever that means.
He's back with the band.
No matter the vocalist, this band is amazing regardless.
Best thing I've heard all week, by far.
This is the most refreshing thing I've heard in a while.
I loved TesseracT for years now, but im rewatching this video just because of Kmacavelli
12 years and this song is still my favourite of theres
The perfect video...
The perfect song ...
One of my fav songs from them for sure.
Many Katatonia...
Such Wow...
la escucho una y mil veces... saca a relucir sentimientos dentro de uno en un vaivén de emociones... una pieza de obra maestra... aunque algo depresiva la letra (suicidio y desepción amorosa)... simpemente genial =)
My favourite song on the album.
Thanks kmac2021 his vocal cover brought me to your guys music.
Genuinely though I was listening to KMAC then.
BTW love you guys, I remember seeing you live by accident in Bristol with Karnivool, amazing night... bought a used signed drum skin.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh ! I can't get enough of this music from future!!
Very relaxing piece of art.
How can anyone hate this band or song!?
K daddy Macciavelli brought me here. I love this so much.
You gotta listen to the whole "One" album (the album has April)
My favourite would be Acceptance or Origin
I have been listening to that album non stop and i don't get tired of it
Beautiful song!!!
yup
Who listening this song after watching kmac2021?
Ayeee
36 people are out of their freaking minds!
so far the best record of 2011 in my opinion. or at least in the top 3.
what an intro, love it
If you love the intro then you might like The Last Vigil by Meshuggah.
This video explains perfectly what i felt for someone who didnt care at all............. now i feel nothing... You mean nothing, nothing
No you mean nothing at all
I'll never say a word of this I swear, I swear
Never...never
I hope you know
I live tonight through methadone highs
This life is over
yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
this song makes me sit at a place , calm down, and then get , chuck the procrastination and achieve!
unas de mis bandas favoritas los sigo desde hace 4 años excelente!!
Kmac brought me here and now I love this
I just heard these guys for the first time today and my first thought was a mixture of Tool and Periphery and it's nice to see I'm not the only one!
this track is a fresh windy and sunny september morning
September been nothing but hot, humid and stuffy!
Love it, simply as that
It's the other way around :D
The Last Vigil - 2012
April - 2011
:)
You know if a song is good, if you turn the volume all the way up and let it play in a never ending loop.
Still....Music from the future
Am I the only one who thinks the lyrics are brilliant also?
thanks to Kmac im here. such a good band
killing me djently with their song
Awesome album!
sounds good
feels good
its like
if my brain was a bunch of musical instruments put together
this music is playing all of them
with perfect tuning
like
a band of harpies playing my brain
Thanks Kmac
Thanks Kmac to lead me here :D
The lyrics haunt me....and so do the vocals.
Dat groove.
Oh my.. that was epic.
Hints of captain eos voyage album in the interlude. Nice
man, that hit me where I live. maan .....
I love the funk bass, gives these guys a cool tone
why not, beautifull...
the begining makes me think of the last Koloss song.
that's what I thought too
last vigil
@@lobstotsbol Yep 🤘🏻
this is a bit of a dream theater copy but i still like it !!! very good. good singing and well put together
