Mechina's new Single "To Coexist is to Surrender" is the conceptual preface to The Acheron Trilogy. Find the entire Acheron Trilogy below: mechinamusic.bandcamp.com/
Cygnus by Cult of Luna has a great ending. Favourite ever's Converge's Jane Doe, but I know that's not for everyone and you've got to get through the whole album to get the true effect.
I agree that these songs would hypothetically lend themselves well for being accompanied by footage, as they're already used to tell a story. But sadly the main problem is of course that even if someone thought it would be profitable to make a music video for this relatively obscure band, there is no way they could justify giving it the budget it'd need to do the story being told justice, you couldn't show massive planetary invasion, and gigantic war machines battling each other without some insane CGI budget. Many stories in fiction are like that, while they may be epic, they're basically "too big", to become actual movies, because they involve to many big events and characters that can't be condensed into a short and comprehensive enough stories with satisfying conclusions.
@@tobiashagstrom4168 unforunately, you're right... a huge budget would be needed for cgi, and the direction would need complete assistance by Joe, since no one knows any detail of the story except for everything Joe told us - which still leaves a lot of obscure and unexplained spots in the plot
I love the female vocals toward the end. The execution is just as strongly commanding as the vox. I hope you have more cameos like this on the next album. You have a perfect mastery of this genera.
This BAND IS UNBELIEVABLY AWESOME...and this SONG is FRAKIN AWESOME...the words the music the EVERYTHING....infact i would go far as to say my FAVORITE BAND EVER!
I disagree with ArtFenixAsordis. In my opinion, Xenon is just as good as its predecessors, and I think this song is one of your best overall. The things I enjoy most about Mechina songs (and the things that made Mechina one of my top favorite bands) are the elements that make their songs unique from standard metal songs. Using this song as an example: the diverse instrumental (mixing metal, orchestra, and electronic), robotic talking (such as in the beginning), radio communication bits, prominent clean vocals (not uncommon but even so), and magnificent lyrics (as always). This song had already become a favorite from just those elements, but the unexpected female singing near the end elevated it to being one of my top favorites. Mechina has used female vocals before (which I greatly enjoyed), but I don't recall it ever being in the form of flat-out English singing. It was excellent, and I'd definitely like to hear more of it in the future done in a similar manner.
one thing i love about mechina is how different styles of music they create out of the same basic elements, and how they don't respect any popular basic song patterns on their songs. compare this to synesthesia signal, on the wings of nefeli, progenitor... all so unique, all so pure inspiration.
I know I am 5 months to late but here it goes anyway. This version was never on Spotify, however, the compendium version was and they seem to have removed all compendium versions from Spotify. Personally I hope this version comes to Spotify, but it seems unlikely.
It would make sense though. It forces people to listen on UA-cam instead, unless they actually buy the artists music (which every fan should do anyway). UA-cam at least gives the artist the opportunity to get add revenue - not just the measly leftovers that Spotify offer the artists in exchange for their art. Spotify is such a joke. Sure... it's convenient, but it shits on the artists.
Es genial el trabajo que ustedes como grupo musical poseen y me gustaría que en un futuro se pueda crear algún vinculo laboral para nuestros juegos con esta genial obra de arte
I mean, it's not wrong. It's a *form* of surrender, abandonment to the waves of emotion that arise from encountering different values and forms of reality around yourself. This slaps tho anywho.
if i close my eyes ... i can envision an Orbital invasion scenario with this song ... Jorge-052 "Tell 'em to make it count." ... "Slipspace rupture detected." "Slipspace rupture detected." "Slipspace rupture detected." "Slipspace rupture detected...."
Peace for all It tells the stories of the Cepheon military unit attacking from the Planet Empyrean against the Acheron capital Anicetus. You aren't far off!
The guitars sound fine, they still have that really loose, clangy aesthetic that made Xenon much better than much of what came before it. The production isn't quite as smooth, but it's a single, so whatever.
***** DeeM10123 Ok serious? Destiny is an ok game the only complaint that alot of people have is that it is too repetitive at times and the mission spaces are reused. I personally think its a good game, not the best, but its still one of the only MMOs that I have played and actually wanted to keep playing. Be happy that another soul knows about this band, they need all the recognition they deserve. stop turning the comments section into a shitfest to see who has the biggest E-peen. Consoles have their advantages and disadvantages, so do PCs. None are really better than the other. Leave it at that and just listen to the prelude to ARCHERON.
Normally you do a movie and then you get a soundtrack for it. But in this case, the soundtrack is already done and you need a movie... I'dwrite the script for free !!! :D :D
Why did the Sound Quality drop for this song and the last album Xenon? Its good music, it just sounds like whoever recorded/mastered was slacking. I can't be the only one to have noticed?
youtube compression obviously lowers the quality. download it from their website and listen. Keep in mind this is an Single, and yes the sound quality is lesser than that of Xenon, mostly in the highs and mids.
At last ! At last ! Song with english name. At last ! I can´t remember one song from mechina cause it is in latin. Music is fabolous/epic/fuckin´ good but those names ! Jesus christ !
Haha :D That's why you don't remember Mechina's song names. All you need are the names of albums and you're set. It's pointless to remember song names because they all tell a story connected through 4 albums (and still counting). If you switch around the songs, you are fucking up the story :D
Grrrrrrrr ............................... ........ I copied communicate from the space station Colombia . .................... their music is great .......................... ... Congratulations .............................. Over and out
if there was any song custom wrote for HALO ... this would be it. you should be on next halo game. when i listen to your albums, i always think of sci fi series like stargate, battlestar galactica etc. fits perfectly. have you guys been contacted by any record labels yet??? right now, Mechina is much better and original than Fear Factory.
A Record label would only cheapen the experience with compromise.. these people put their hearts into this. and I think joe and dave have their own studio named Apothica Studios (i think but not entirely sure).. not to mention the artists under most labels get screwed into producing something that wasnt even in their original vision something a little more this and a little less that... in case you havent noticed the absolutely insanely obsessive attention to detail and reluctance to compromise when it comes to the sound renderings (ex.)(Adrasteia) within huuuuuge cavities of specified shapes and wall materials where the sound can be heard as it travels through for virtual miles and miles.. changing pitch with the changing cross sectional shape inside the cavity.. to the end and echos back (maybe I heard it wrong idk).. not many people out there are doing what these guys are doing.. no need for a mainstream shitlabel.
Great song as always but...The sound quality is meh yet again and yet again Andromeda and Conqueror songs are much better than this song or most of Xenon (the album itself is still great but not as great as Andromeda - Empyrean era).
Not everyone thinks twice before speaking Agnus. Ill go ahead and put in a good word with the guys for you Art to request them to hire you to do the sleepless months of mixing and mastering. O not interested bc you have no clue what it takes, Yeah it what i thought NOW IF YOU GOT NOTHING NICE TO SAY KEEP IT TO YOUR SELF.
Sigh...Come on! I do appreciate the effort on Mechina's side! But I can't use this as an excuse NOT to give some criticism to them! After all, the criticism on my side only serves to help them improve their sound and ultimately their music. Mechina is still my favorite band). So yeah, calm down please. I'm not here to troll. I give credit where credit is due. Here, the sound isn't the best Mechina can do especially since they did make better sound before.
The final 3 minutes of this song changed my life O_O
Almost 3 years later and I still haven't found a better ending.
....Yup, still my favorite song
🎼🎵🎤😍🎶
Cygnus by Cult of Luna has a great ending. Favourite ever's Converge's Jane Doe, but I know that's not for everyone and you've got to get through the whole album to get the true effect.
да. 3 последних минуты просто 🔥🔥🔥
The reason mechina doesn't make music videos is because the intensity would blind us and they would get sued "for being too epic".

Humans don't have the technology to create a music video that would do it justice
@@Krushtykon And we don't want Empyreans to put their propaganda in our story :P
I love the female vocals toward the end. The execution is just as strongly commanding as the vox. I hope you have more cameos like this on the next album. You have a perfect mastery of this genera.
Fantastic cinematic metal. Riffs that crush with the weight of a hundred black holes juxtapose with gorgeous symphonic arrangements and soaring vocals
That sheer cold down my spine, almost tears in my eyes, this song is pure emotion.
Mechina, you are the best
This is the reason why we LOVE
Mechina!! 😍😍😍
One of the most epic songs, ever.
This BAND IS UNBELIEVABLY AWESOME...and this SONG is FRAKIN AWESOME...the words the music the EVERYTHING....infact i would go far as to say my FAVORITE BAND EVER!
It's hard for me to say, but the compendium is terrible. The orchestra drowns everything else in the mix.
My brain keeps generating cinematics and cutscenes for this track. So powerfull.
Absolutely! 🥰
TITANS, CAN YOU HEAR ME?!
These fabled machines
Bringing gods to their knees
TITANS, CAN YOU HEAR ME?!
TITANS, CAN YOU HEAR ME?!
Спасибо, за то что вы есть!
Класс
Powerful and atmospheric... as always. And female vocals is fuckin' great!
Still my absolute favorite Mechina song.
I cried and I had no shame admitting that
I double that. The last part just cracks me up every time
Absolutely one of the best endings ever!
OMG! I am blown away by this song! This is just epic!!!!
Oh my god YES. Thank you Mechina for giving me chills again with your music!
wow beastly and industrially epic!!! Mechina's music, a symphonic orgasm to my ears...
That is fucking amazing.

Mechina is part of my daily Ritual. Gotta listen to these guys or I cant go on during the day :D Can't wait for new stuff

Dat 9-string
Why is this song no longer available on Spotify :( u broke my heart by doing this! Loving ur music btw
I just found out today! Was wondering what was the difference till I checked.....
i still cant find it either
I know I am 5 months to late but here it goes anyway. This version was never on Spotify, however, the compendium version was and they seem to have removed all compendium versions from Spotify. Personally I hope this version comes to Spotify, but it seems unlikely.
Because Spotify is crap..
It would make sense though. It forces people to listen on UA-cam instead, unless they actually buy the artists music (which every fan should do anyway). UA-cam at least gives the artist the opportunity to get add revenue - not just the measly leftovers that Spotify offer the artists in exchange for their art.
Spotify is such a joke. Sure... it's convenient, but it shits on the artists.
My ears just came. So good.
The intro voice effect is awesome.
We need this song on spotify so bad. So good it's breaking the limits of music.
This band is proof that magic is real.
This is the best Mechina song by far and all metal.........my favourite song ever.....
fucking yeah
Another fantastic song, the slower parts and female vocals were brilliant. I'm looking forward to seeing some more new elements in the future album.
wow! that opening.
Just checking and yup, still my favorite song.
Same
INSANE track, pity they don't have it on Spotify
I want a movie about this :)
Better than the compendium version
i love this song so much.
Es genial el trabajo que ustedes como grupo musical poseen y me gustaría que en un futuro se pueda crear algún vinculo laboral para nuestros juegos con esta genial obra de arte
capolavoro
Absolutely majestic and perfect
This is the quintessence of Mechina music
Why isn't this version on spotify?
"Sentient number: 2154
Neurological output augmentation:... complete!
Sweep memory for simulation analysis...
Stabilizing biometrics for memory transmission."
This is probably the best song Mechina has ever made.
You guys have really beautiful lyrics.
Yes!! This is amazing!
I fucking love this piece! Amazing! :D
The entire Archeron Trilogy is a masterpiece! I can't stop listening to it ^_^
So... future space metal?
Great song!
Awesome, epic song.
Prepare for impact!
Brace for impact
holy LIVING FUUUUCK!
so epic!
Fantastic
I mean, it's not wrong. It's a *form* of surrender, abandonment to the waves of emotion that arise from encountering different values and forms of reality around yourself.
This slaps tho anywho.
im building a space battleship and soon will need a crew before i take off , battling in the milky way
Beast!!
What happened to this song and the world we lost song???? It's not on spotify anymore...
if i close my eyes ... i can envision an Orbital invasion scenario with this song ...
Jorge-052 "Tell 'em to make it count."
...
"Slipspace rupture detected."
"Slipspace rupture detected."
"Slipspace rupture detected."
"Slipspace rupture detected...."
Peace for all It tells the stories of the Cepheon military unit attacking from the Planet Empyrean against the Acheron capital Anicetus. You aren't far off!
I am now reborn.
Уникално!!!
So amazing, as usual! Cant wait for another new album release? Anybody know who is the women vocale at the end?
The guitars sound fine, they still have that really loose, clangy aesthetic that made Xenon much better than much of what came before it. The production isn't quite as smooth, but it's a single, so whatever.
Delicious 👍
Music to play Destiny to ^^
***** Better than playing with your shit pud behind the monitor ;)
***** DeeM10123 Ok serious? Destiny is an ok game the only complaint that alot of people have is that it is too repetitive at times and the mission spaces are reused. I personally think its a good game, not the best, but its still one of the only MMOs that I have played and actually wanted to keep playing. Be happy that another soul knows about this band, they need all the recognition they deserve. stop turning the comments section into a shitfest to see who has the biggest E-peen. Consoles have their advantages and disadvantages, so do PCs. None are really better than the other. Leave it at that and just listen to the prelude to ARCHERON.
Fans suggested they were Mass Effect metal, lol.
+Way is not Kill E.T. would like a word with you
Fucking unbelievable!
That breakdown around 5:08 is so sexy...
So amazing a Devil may Cry ? No , seriously am I the only one seeing a Devil May Cry 4 game tag on this video ? :O
I feel sound improvement. Nice! But it could have a... wait for it... solo! :p And that girl voice was nice touch.
Solos are overrated to be honest - in my opinion they just get in the way of the awesome lyrical work.
TheIrezasRise That is what you think.
Well, yes. Congratulations. You understand the definition of "Opinion".
Something slightly warhammer-ish is definitely in this music.
Is the woman in this song, is she a new permenant member of the Band or just a guest? Please be a Member
I also want the female vocalist to be a permanent member, but sadly i don't think so
She has her own band called MELROSE that Joe helped her form.
SaltyCupcakes Sounds great, from what I heard. Reminds me of a Female fronted A Perfect Circle or Ashes Divide
Now she is a permanent member :)
Normally you do a movie and then you get a soundtrack for it. But in this case, the soundtrack is already done and you need a movie... I'dwrite the script for free !!! :D :D
Why DMC4 though?

Joe mixes/records the albums himself
At last ! At last ! Song with english name. At last ! I can´t remember one song from mechina cause it is in latin. Music is fabolous/epic/fuckin´ good but those names ! Jesus christ !
Haha :D
That's why you don't remember Mechina's song names. All you need are the names of albums and you're set. It's pointless to remember song names because they all tell a story connected through 4 albums (and still counting). If you switch around the songs, you are fucking up the story :D
Ya, that not always work, because if I want to find one song I don´t want to hear whole album :D
+Hajtmanek Marek If I'm not misstaken, their song names (as well as various names in the lore) are often greek.
They are actually in greek.
Grrrrrrrr ............................... ........ I copied communicate from the space station Colombia . .................... their music is great .......................... ... Congratulations .............................. Over and out

Based title
This is some scurry *beep*
Great song as always but...The sound quality is meh yet again and yet again Andromeda and Conqueror songs are much better than this song or most of Xenon (the album itself is still great but not as great as Andromeda - Empyrean era).
go check your ears then.. moron
Wow, you're such a polite guy, you know that? And my ears are fine, thank you very much!
Not everyone thinks twice before speaking Agnus. Ill go ahead and put in a good word with the guys for you Art to request them to hire you to do the sleepless months of mixing and mastering.

Funny I didn't realize previous members like myself of this group we are arguing over are so called fan boys. Fascinating
I miss when Mechina was good.
Awesome song but the voice acting is... it sounds like someone got their 16 year old kid sister to do it...
The war between Israel and Palestine reminded me of this song lol
Yanni better!
