Australian Metalhead reacts to Knower - “It’s All Nothing Until It’s Everything”

[@christophegowans3504]

When the musicianship and composition is jaw-dropping, that's more than enough, but when the thing hits you in the feels too, uplifting and wildly euphoric.... then you have a masterpiece

[@pitpride1220]

They are INCREDIBLE. They've given me hope for music

[@NZWozza]

Check out Louis Cole's other projects too if you haven't already. Heaps of stuff under just his name, and the there is Clowncore...

[@PeteFindsObscureStuff]

This is a masterpiece imho. Polyrhythmic, a one handed piano solo by Rai Thistlethwayte, the strings! What's not to like?!?!?

[@mykindofweird]

It’s incredible

[@ThalassTKynn]

This whole album is amazing

[@jadeowenhamblyn4405]

Yeah, this is chills every time for me.

[@rambleron5720]

Main line Knower most of their new stuff is so good.

[@toast1612]

i recommend listening to the whole album this is in, KNOWER FOREVER. bunch of really funky shit

[@fiddlestix3025]

Knower -one of the best bands out there imho… Another fan of Knower and friend of Louis Cole, is Jonah Nilsson (vocals and keys) from Swedish fusion trio Dirty Loops, an equally badass band. Louis once said in an interview that he tries to copy Jonah’s insane vocal riffs by knocking real fast against his vocal chords when singing 🤣 If you’re not familiar with DLoops you might want to check out their track “Work Shit Out”, link below. It features a serious keyboard as well as a drum solo… 🔥🔥🔥 These guys are second to none 🤘✌️👌👍 Cheers 🙏

[@frankcavallo]

Frank Zappa would have loved this album

[@mykindofweird]

2000% correct!!

[@edwarddenhartog8100]

It's like I am hearing "life and truth" from the album Toilet by Clown Core 2010..grown into a monster❤

[@mykindofweird]

HAHA so true!

[@stevecarter8810]

it's doesn't have hair, swords or monsters (showing my age) but as far as I'm concerned this is metal! It has riffs, djent, white noise, dissonances, shredding, flexiing...

[@mykindofweird]

Nah but Gnome does. You listened to much gnome?

[@stevecarter8810]

@mykindofweird haha yes! Thanks for the reminder. I now have more pointy hats in my playlist.

I am Not used to Reactors REALLY Listening to a Song from Start to Finish Without Pauseing.... But Yeah great Reaction.

[@mykindofweird]

Thanks my dude

[@_Skim_Beeble]

Not many realise that's Rai Thistlethwayte from Thirsty Merc playing that piano.

[@mykindofweird]

It’s one of my favourite facts concerning online music lore

[@_Skim_Beeble]

@@mykindofweird He is very musically talented but doesn't get a lot of credit for it.

[@bobblethreadgill4463]

They are Super Tight!

[@mykindofweird]

So fking tight

[@goobs52]

Rai is the Lead in Thirsty Merc. ❤

[@livedandletdie]

Knower is one of the weirdest bands out there... Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes...

[@rickd2154]

The whole Knower universe is sic! There is crazy shit with Louis and Genevieve with big bands like Snarky Puppy. Check out Genevieve Artadi song " Visionary". Louis plays drums . Love their early stuff also like "gotta be another way". Louis Cole " Bitches" and "Weird part of the Night" also sweet.😊😊

[@mykindofweird]

Literally the only universe I care about right now.

[@rickd2154]

@@mykindofweird man not knower , but check out Hanabie - kzbin.info/www/bejne/d6jbZqmcl8SUibs fun band!

[@bravenkind7843]

Whole album is awesome. If you're looking for more guitar, check out Do Hot Girls Like Chords?

[@JuneTao-z2j]

This is what happens when a bunch of Berkley music school grads get together and decide to jam....Knower does no wrong.

[@samholder196]

absolutely slaps. Louis Cole is a god

[@mephesh]

pure goodness

[@robertdolby]

Thanks for this reaction -- I LOVE these guys. My recommendation for the next track is this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oqSUaKmnmK1gjtksi=fIjj2aHs8f2AT1oE It's a slightly different vibe but God it's good. Mononeon's bass is FILTHY!

[@ericm130]

Sorry, but the Clown Core vibes I get too with this song are wayyyyy too hard 😅. It must be Cole and companion. First loved Knower through KZbin recommendations years ago and then somewhat randomly Clown Core popped up. Coincidence? I don't think so.

[@spankyjeffro5320]

Yes, it's confirmed that Cole is the drummer of Clown Core.

[@ericm130]

@@spankyjeffro5320 Ah ok, was looking for that bit of information but couldn't find anything about it in a hurry. Thx for the update.

[@Mr.Marbles]

@@spankyjeffro5320 i knew it. it immediately sounds like clowncores more serious big sister. the synth too!

[@eclipsespilce]

Gin blossom.

[@crewd00d]

This just sounds like a Clown Core cover band.

[@crewd00d]

@southerndiscomfort171 Dang well I don't think they're bad. They're pretty talented. I just think the similarities are very apparent haha

[@raphaelkonichi]

The drummer here Louis Cole is also the drummer from Clown Core

[@rickd2154]

Yep it is the same composer and driving force being the drummer Louis Cole. Clown Core is how i originally found Knower.

[@LuckykidA]

This comment made me laugh so hard especially as a Knower of the truth behind two of the members of this "cover band".

[@DanWhiteT]

it always cracks me up when my reaction is "hah, ok so this is the clown core people unmasked" and others are "this is clown core plagiarism". It's 1000% the same people. Nobody can rip off a band that accurately and brazenly., especially one with that much flair.

[@mutleylaugh]

This sounds like a parody band, and apparently it isn't? This is terrible. This is what Sleigh Bells would sound like if they had no musical talent

[@sinancemyucel4644]

blud really called a full orchestra of berklee graduates a parody band

[@raysravens52]

You're going to use sleigh bells as a bastion of musical talent

[@brentmorris1823]

I have no idea how anyone could be so dense if you are serious. If a piece of music isn't for you that's fine, but how can you deny the skill on display here? Are people only talented if it's a genre you like?

[@therealexpletive]

the amount of musical talent in that room is fucking astronomical. fuck you on about?
