Craziest MODERN METAL of 2022?!

[@NikNocturnal]

*What*

[@Shiroar]

Paledusk doing their thing and all we can do is enjoy it cause understanding it is probably impossible 😂 The creativity is next level 🔥

[@PsychoMath]

I feel like my first KETAMINE EXPERIENCE

[@thelonewolf7443]

Who, When, Where, Why and How?

[@TheObserverDMZ]

I would try to explain it but my brain functions have ceased

[@paledusk1797]

ARIGATOOOOO‼️😂 I love you,Nik!!

[@FaoraVx]

Guys you're cool Thank you

[@Eckerockzz]

you guys are amazing :O thank you for all the amazing music you keep giving to us :D

[@tothzsombor8897]

Nobody: so what kind of music genre are you listening to? Me: Hmmm. It's complicated.

[@napaartoq_from_nuuk]

Q: What genre music do you listen to? A: yes.

[@DimiusG]

Twelve Foot Ninja are another band this applies to lmao.

[@goodcat132]

- So, basically, its metal hardcore jazz rock, a japanese by the way. - **blue screen of death**

[@superodeda9223]

Feels like maximum the hormone's spiritual successor on the way they structure their songs but crazier

[@nikolaichenqov6203]

Ypur pfp is my IG pfp. Great taste sir 🤌🏼

[@berserkerman11272134]

Honestly I'd say it's about the same level. Love both ❤️

[@eatadick4127]

Great now I miss MTH again

[@TomatePasFraiche]

I feel that it’s sadly less coherent than maximum the hormone

[@antoniopavlov2737]

When I heard that, the first thing that came to my mind is Maximum the Hormone.

[@connorbranigan]

Had the pleasure of these guys opening up for my band in Japan both times we’ve toured over there, and let me tell you, it’s as chaotic and crazy live as on record, and played so tightly. Love seeing that they’re making waves internationally now. Truly a unique band that’s incomparable. Long live Paledusk 🤘🏻

[@tymau3958]

Thanks for sticking around!!

[@DaFootyChannel]

The fact that BMTH are working with Paledusk on their latest stuff makes me so so SO excited for the future of music, all we need now is an actual collab and I can die a very happy man 🙏🏻

[@DalanorTheLlama]

There are two type of people in the world. The "why?" and the "why not?". They are definitely the second one.

[@Vilhomatto]

I just wonder when songs are stacked like this. How the hell you're supposed remember everything when you play these live. hella wholesome band tho

[@eatadick4127]

Honestly, I always found that if the parts were distinct/ different enough it wasn't too bad to remember everything. Always struggled more with songs with subtle variations throughout

[@perunyara2919]

And they look like they are on so many drugs during shows.

[@Nestorglass]

keep in mind that this type of amorphous song structures have been a thing for a while (while not executed in the same way). Thank Dillinger Escape Plan, Dream Theater, Meshuggah... How do those people remember their parts and play them tight? TONS of muscle memory!!

[@SwiftestScout]

When you write it and record it it's stuck in your brain forever, I can still play ever song I've ever written

[@SirLukHipolito]

just press "play" button 😃😃😃

[@kylecoss1764]

I absolutely love this band. So much energy.

[@りあん-g2x]

Happy to see Paledusk in real time. They are the pride of Japan🇯🇵

[@lilmac808]

Are they in the same realm as fear and loathing in Las Vegas?

[@drgetwrekt869]

this explains why i was thinking about tokyo gore police when listening to this

[@Archeum94]

I think you’re forgetting someone. Even though they lost Ryo

[@Markron1213]

@@Archeum94 😢😢😢😢😢😢

[@michaeltagor4238]

can I just ask something, why are they the metal band equivalent of those edgy t shirts with english words on it that edgy japanese/korean/chinese (basically east asian) girls wear to try and look "cool", idk if my comment make sense but that's the vibe I get from this song it's like a tad bit too much

[@dansken610]

Their music is insane. Really a breath of fresh air, love it. I've yet to see ONE thing in their songs that feels corny or out of place even though they mix so many styles

[@mellyslife5950]

Saw them live at Full Force Festival Germany and oh my god, they were one of my highlights of the whole Festival! They are so good live and the energy was crazy! And the most insane thing is that the one guitarist was spin kicking and jumping around the stage making me wonder how he didn't get dizzy and was at the same time able to still play. All in all, if you ever get the chance to see them, DO IT!

[@erikleuth]

I discovered them a while ago and they definitely need ALL the attention. They’re so fun to listen to, hope they’re gonna pop off real big

[@domiissartier2774]

The creativity of Japanese bands is out of this world! Love this ❤️

[@Tiemsch]

how many genres do you want to mix? paledusk: yes

[@freezingjazzy]

I love Paledusk so fucking much. Especially when Daidai plays live. He hangs from rafters upside down and plays these crazy riffs. Like how does he write this?

[@BuddhaBless328]

Just saw them in Baltimore on Polaris’ fatalism tour. The lead singer worked the merch booth after their set!

[@jacknathanson282]

If you guys are just discovering the band from this video, i highly recommend listening to songs like “Slay!!” or “WIND BACK”. They have a great catalog of songs .

[@CheeerriOH]

They are great live. Saw them in Newcastle and they pull it off. The guitatist also produces Deathnyann that I would recommend if your hungry for more Paledusk but with Jpop vocals.

[@jackwilliams8315]

Deathnyann is fricken cool

[@thetimlumbTV]

saw them live twice in UK and they're just as good and energetic live as they sound. Had a chat with the singer after one show about football (soccer/Premier League) randomly.

[@Cmaxb9]

I just had the pleasure of seeing these guys live on the Polaris Fatalism tour, wow did they leave an impression. Full of energy and they got the crowd going right away, felt like pure chaotic arcadecore and I loved every minute of it. I hope to keep seeing great releases, it is impressive how much they pack into a song. Singer sounds great live too!

[@danygilbert6733]

Paledusk have a lot of Igorrr influences with all the different style and electro in there. It's sounds good.

[@Erv1sG]

Yeah, the moment I heard Paledusk I instantly fell in love with their music :0

[@Shiroar]

Same. I listened to Happy Talk and just sat back not sure what I just witnessed but I had a huge smile on my face and knew I wanted more. They tickle my ADHD brain just right.

[@DaFootyChannel]

@@Shiroar This is the same thing I say to people and that I’ve seen others say - seem to really have a fanbase with the ADHD community 😂 love ‘em to bits

[@Shiroar]

@@DaFootyChannel it’s quite interesting really. Maybe it’s cause we’re used to chaos? Or cause we already jump from one thought to the next anyway? Or maybe it’s simply cause it doesn’t get boring? Not sure exactly what it is but it seems to resonate with adhd brains 🧠 I just know that I fucking love them!

[@Shiroar]

Hell yeah!! Finally you do a KZbin reaction to them ❤ Also this new song is so fucking good! And that ending? Damn Paledusk 🤘

[@dirtyhalo20]

I need a Dillinger Escape Plan/Darko/Paledusk tour before I die. I wanna die of a musical aneurysm.

[@DuffmanGoneWild13]

I was lucky enough to see these guys twice in 8 days. Once at Good things festival and then at a small venue in melbourne. They are sooo good live!! i got to be at the front at the second show with no barriers and it was just one of the best gigs I have been to. Kaito jump into the crowd at some point and he was sitting on me head. Best night ever.

[@IM_A_POTATO26]

i saw these guys at good things Brisbane they were so good, mosh pit was insane

[@DuffmanGoneWild13]

@@IM_A_POTATO26 Soo much energy and really polished. They have become one of my go to hype up bands and when they come back I am soo there!! haha

[@PortalSpartan888]

Man I missed them at good things Sydney and was so cut when I found how much I loved them on the train home, but they came up and visited Newcastle to a fucking tiny crowd (50 max, I brought like 6 of those people) and were absolutely off the wall in our tiny room venue. Got to chat to the singer afterwards and got a pic, I'm a huge fan now and can't wait for them to come back

[@DuffmanGoneWild13]

@@PortalSpartan888 These guys are the best. The shows that they put on are just full of energy. I almost saw them 3 times but I missed out on tickets for the sideshow as they supported electric callboy. As soon as they are back I am gunna be there. Probs one of the best band I have seen with how they preform.

[@Screambludygore]

Saw them live and hung out with them this year and it 100% solidified that they are my number 1 Japanese band and just the nicest humble dudes, been obsessed with them since day dot and seeing them get the recognition they deserve finally melts my heart

[@OtakuRBJ]

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas Maximum the Hormone Coldrain SiM Japan got a lot of metal bangers🔥

[@MrJizmdogsmack]

I saw them with Great American Ghost, FFAK and Alpha Wolf. They were the opening band and set the energy and tempo for the night. Dope band!!!

[@azkancut8737]

Def my favorite band since their "War Declaration". They used to be more stiff, normal metalcore. Now they just banging deep into my subconscious. Idk wtf happened to them, but I LOVE it!!!

[@dxm028]

One reason I like prog and newer metalcore is because they switch up tempos and sounds, it’s so interesting and keeps me invested in the songs, this is right up my alley

[@FromTheVoid10011]

I discovered Paledusk at Graspop festival and it was freakin insane, one of the best band on this planet

[@jbc00per]

They're so bloody good, their use of samples is just off the wall I've never heard anything like it in modern metalcore.

[@user-desuno777]

リアクションしてくれるの嬉しいなあ

[@pixierocks]

Seen these guys live last month for the first time on the Sable Hills tour final. Insanly fun and energetic (and yes they pull it off live) but if you’re not all too familiar with their songs... insert confused head-banging 😂 Didn’t matter, had a blast 🤘🏻

[@Jordash45]

These guys are so good. They opened their set with an Eminem cover when I saw them 😂 one of the most fun bands I’ve ever seen.

[@imnotchikao6317]

Woah that sounds crazy! Seems par for the course though with how they play their songs 😂 I’m jealous and hoping to see these guys in the future.

[@noparkingnoparking]

i love that paledusk leaves most people speechless

[@garrettgrowls]

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is another band that sounds similar to this, highly suggest checking them out too

[@TylertheFancy]

Or Hysteric Panic

[@adc834]

This is awesome, pale dusk is exactly my type of music!! Thank you for making these videos so more people find out about these bands : )

[@timkirsten6184]

I loved experiencing this song and vid first hand, and then watching you have the same reaction was awesome. Thanks for always being so quick with these, it's like listening with a friend.

[@mrraimundo130]

2+1 breakdowns in da song which is exactly 1+1 more than most metal hits nowadays. So I like it. A lot.

[@weiyunchi]

Saw Paledusk here in Shanghai a couple years back and they put on a heck of a show.

[@HadesLordofDeath]

Idk if anyone here listens to SiM from Japan but they're great in doing weird reggae metal stuff. Devil in Your Heart is a banger

[@RustyShackleford86868]

Recording studio: What genre are you going with? Paledusk: Yes.

[@FreshSqueezedLightning]

I discovered your video on this song like two weeks ago, and all I’ve listened to is this band for that amount of time basically (+ Hanabie) and I’ve discovered how they play these songs live, they listen to themselves 100 times because now I have this song memorized too 🤣

[@ProjSiren]

They’re really f***ing good live

[@Spoooshi]

ADD-Core goes hard

[@Shiroar]

Tickles my ADHD brain in all the right places.

[@killsedadivd7956]

Paledusk definitely had Mad Capsule Markets on a shrine. I fucking love this.

[@chronoslumber]

Thank you for bringing this amazing band to my notice, currently listening to their blue rose album .

[@moscus_bulfughur06]

Perfect for Who listen to all metal genres

[@davidfyvie9480]

Paledusk, the quintessential WTFcore band

[@skull277]

I totally wonder what Nik's reaction to their latest single from 3 weeks ago is

[@This.island.earth.bandofficial]

It's kinda like a marching band show with all the different tempo changes and sounds. To play this live you gotta practice alot for sure.

[@DacianGradaMusic]

Yo this band is amazing! another similar band is Maximum the Hormone... mixing of genres, craziness all around and heavy AF. You'll like them too!

[@twodotswithline5071]

They never dissapoint

[@evias9943]

They have released 2 albums 1 ep and a whole lot or different singles and mini eps. I'm exited when they finally release a new album but maybe they are just going to blast random singles out.

[@dannychane]

Palesdusk is art! …and trolling their listeners 😂

[@zachhenderson7982]

I love paledusk. You introduced me to them in that previous video you mentioned. It's so weird, but I love it

[@FlamelizzardPro]

They opened for a alphawolf show I saw and man they’re the best openers I’ve ever seen they have such amazing energy and they’re songs go so fuckin hard

[@nikkidequito253]

Yup almost all of the japanese bands are fun 🤘😤🤘

[@TheP0P3-25]

Not gonna lie, thought I was having a stroke listening to that. My musical brain was having so much difficulty keeping up with the time and tempo changes

[@LoganWard4621]

badass merch dude!!! i love so much dude!!!!

[@ghostitheweeb]

this is why i love them they're all over the place its awesome

[@frenchicarus]

Some Between the buried and me vibes.....love that.

[@StretcheoTube]

Someone handed these guys a menu of genres, they looked at it and said "yes please, we'll take all of that". I'm so here for it

[@metalcorehardcorepost-hard3649]

So ths band is very random and chaotic. This reminds me of the band Capture The Crown (CTC) from their 2012 album, which was also extremely random and chaotic (shuffling multiple different parts into one song with constantly changing rhytms and beats. Another band that comes to mind is THROWN (2022 Hardcore Metal band) which is also very similar in the way of randomly changing rhytm and beats multiple times in the song.

[@ade_ne6835]

Sometimes you just don't know what part to headband to, you just go !!

[@BigWick13]

I want to be in the studio while they just throw circus music in the mix

[@Xenomorph79]

I love this band it's Dillinger escape plan meets maximum the hormone

[@aggelosmanolis5689]

Literally so fucking original them tallah and callous daoboys are my fav modern metal bands

[@Defekcija]

I feel like I've listened to a full album in one song.

[@fat_ninja_status]

I feel like I just heard the entire spineshank library put into a blender.

[@godmonster333]

SLAY!!! Is one of my all time favourites, so I’m definitely here for this

[@Brucedoos]

Saw these guys live in Australia recently, they were hectic!

[@itsfrizza]

the thing with paledusk, is that you never know whats coming next, and i fucking love it

[@janjg489]

They feel like the Darko of Metalcore

[@metal_hobbit]

Maximum The Hormone vibes

[@DavidRiehl756]

This is literally my first time listening to this band and my brain is like 😵‍💫😵‍💫 It’s like they pick a genre from a wheel spinner and just roll with it.

[@lostintheblur4380]

they must be subscribed to nik noc then :)

[@takticalweeb9182]

Man you gotta see HANABIE, especially the "We Love Sweet" and see how Kawaii-core can be so cute but brutal as well

[@BrandonLuallenMusic]

They deserve ALL the love.

[@PZMaTTy]

1:07 Crazy Dubstep

[@goner.9989]

I don’t think they take drugs simply because in Japan, and if people learn that you take drugs they will talk of you and treat you like you killed at least 2 people. Even weed is illegal. They might but it’s extremely unlikely. They’re just incredibly creative.

[@owakun3089]

This song is insane super insane!!!! Wtf!!!.

[@javeywavey]

I think this the future of music in general. "Genre-defying." Like literally the idea is "more is more"

[@albertoharo9523]

Paledusk and Tallah changing the game!

[@travispearce8712]

Loved seeing them live when they came to Melbourne with Alpha Wolf, their energy is absolutely insane and one of my favourite live shows

[@boogalicious9160]

Watched these guys last week in Brisbane.. was fucking phenomenally great!! Actually far surpassed what I expected!

[@BasSk8arist17]

The upbeat bluesy part eight before the chorus is from teenage mutant ninja turtles 2 or 3 for the NES.

[@Jordan-cz5hc]

im so glad you put me on to them. Their sound is awesome!

[@BEAR-]

They’re back! Rumble is a pretty sick song!

[@clevelandbeast100]

Yeah im seeing paledusk with loathe and static dress next month so its gonna be an awesome night

[@Artemis_in_the_Woods]

Wow this is so all over the place in the best way possible, thanks for the new (to me) band to check out!!!

[@tonkatsuboi5]

They somehow managed to take all the trends of metalcore in late2021s~mid2022s and combined it in this very song very well

[@nicka7542]

It's fear and loathing in las Vegas, but heavier. FALILV are closer to trance core with same shifts of style, but not that jumpy and hard cornering

[@birdiemaradoth]

Vocalist gives me early 2000s nu metal music video vibes in this video lmao

[@eseph_agen]

God i love paledusk. Lost my shit a while back when kaito posted my vocal cover of no to his insta story and a ton of people saw it

[@romanjack8901]

3:33 Just Paledusk

[@Silvanor0]

The music video and the energy this band gives off is insane
