[@retrogamer41_sepiamta]

This track already considered to be ABR's darkest track to date, but never thought it could get much darker by adding Will Ramos(Lorna Shore) in it.

[@justenpardo6958]

Seriously though! This is easily one of their heaviest and adding that extra layer is insane!

[@Cryotyde]

Yup, this is definitely their darkest song in my opinion, at least for the first 2/3. The song then picks up a more positive tone and lyrical direction towards the end though.

[@comfortbetrayal]

Just his Line , reached the peak

[@TidePodsRFood]

Thats *really* weird considering how uplifting it is. God is pissed, comes down to kill us Is taken aback by our indomitable spirit & determination to be the shepherds of this world Allows himself to be slain in our greatest moment And disappears, leaving us the masters of our own destiny.

[@retrogamer41_sepiamta]

@TidePodsRFood Probably because darkened sounding the instrumental is. And the addition of Will Ramos made it darker. But, that's just me, dude. 😮

[@eti165]

I'm amazed by ABR's consistency over 2 freaking decades! Their earliest music still holds up today and they somehow keep improving

[@StevenZissimos]

For real. They're honestly the best metalcore band to ever do it.

[@kadajtribal8532]

I definitely agree. ABR is without a doubt an amazing band.

[@anthonyyoungblood7557]

Yep. Been listening almost the whole time and the old stuff and the new stuff blends perfectly on a binge

[@Awesom7607]

ABR and TDWP makes me incredibly happy with their consistency

[@andrewbradford6520]

Forreal. Like wtf. Maybe I should find jesus

[@Fragnar13]

positive Christian vibes, with the darkness that Lorna shore privileges us with. MASTERPIECE. TALENT>differences

[@TidePodsRFood]

If you haven't already, check out Oh, Sleeper. Lol or Powerwolf. Skillet if you really want your Christian Metal Christian.

[@martytheluddy]

Even after Will showed in a couple of videos how he does his vocals it's inconprehensible how those noises can come from a human

[@metalheadblues]

Any musician can practice there instrumental for years and get good but vocals are different , you can improve but its either you have it or not

[@MasonzeroDigitalWorks]

@@metalheadblues Eh, sort of. There is some biology to it, but anyone can be a good singer if they have a good teacher and stick to it. Most people don't have the time, or don't want to commit to it that much, though. It's a lot of boring exercises, just like working out any muscle.

[@VanskickGianniLOrd]

U should listen to lorna shore or infant annihilator that is crazy 😂

[@WastelandWarrior1979]

@@VanskickGianniLOrdI was going to say something about AI because Will supposedly got help from them & Eddie from SS

Ok now announce a co-headlining tour together!!

The shift to major around 5:00 is always my favorite part of ABR songs tbh

[@rasmachris94]

Not familiar with ABR so it was a bit surprising but it's nice, a positive shift for resolution is so nice

[@neilkennethofficial]

Exactly. It all started with Cutting The Ties a long time ago. :)

[@personreanimation]

100 percent man. It brings the light back into focus.

[@rhettehlis4155]

@@neilkennethofficialI’d say it started with Meddler from Constellations

[@neilkennethofficial]

@@rhettehlis4155 Meddler is straight C minor all the way. There's no key change.

[@mikecraig7456]

Everyone stating Will doesn’t add anything to this is wild. This reminds me of the dual vocals they did in Carpe Diem. Wills voice is meant to add another dimension to the sections where the darker voice is spoken. And I’m all here for it. This was already a banger before, it’s a whole new level now. 🔥

[@mikecraig7456]

Also, I see a ton of reactors and comments missing the fact that Will also comes in at the 1:19 mark of the song. He comes in at 1:19, 3:26, 7:36.

[@ghostof1898]

Will def contributed a ton to this song and I'm all for it.

[@sicdemon7177]

I'm about to ruin it. Sorry for asking for more but, Imagine hearing both their voices/screaming at the same time for certain parts. Kind of like Signal Fire from Killswitch.

[@KILLIAN87]

YES! I’ll be honest, I never saw this coming ABR + Will Ramos = Masterpiece

[@Zelafuul]

[@TheCultureCrusader]

Absolutely awesome. This song was already the standout off this album, but now it's even more insane. Forgot I was listening to a new version of it, and then Will came in and scared the hell out of me. I absolutely love the lyrics of this song - the story it tells, the message behind it - but I always felt like it went a little under-appreciated by most fans that I'd seen online. Hopefully this version changes that.

[@DavidAldridge73]

And for the critics, I get that you want to provide feedback, but make it actually helpful, not just “meh, it’s not a banger”. Music that makes it out of the studio and into our ears is a banger, and the collaborations are so essential for diversifying a band’s sound. Sit back, listen, and enjoy the music. Be thankful that we are allowed to listen to such awesome music.
