[@RodrigoPacote]

Brazil is with you guys!!!!

[@TheBadCluster]

What kind of sorcery is this? What did you guys do? This came up as a recommendation out of nowhere for me. This is the best surprise I've had in a very long time! Thank you for creating this!

[@valc9819]

I am amazed at how great your music is!!!!! Love it!!!!!

[@no_misaki]

This album doesn't age, it's as breathtaking today as it was when I stumbled upon it roughly 4 years ago. Everyone associated with this, you're all legends!

[@IAMHIGDON]

Completely agree

[@turbodog182]

I absolutely agree; I have heard this whole album 100x over and over. However, I would LOVE to get a new album. I feel that we are overdue. I am not ungrateful for the masterpiece that we have already been gifted. But I would love to experience a continuation of this glory.

[@thelightyears_]

​@@turbodog182Well you're in for a treat because they dropped a second album last November, and it's a goddamn masterpiece

[@shemsuhor8763]

@@thelightyears_ Nah, new album is faaaaaar too self-indulgent. It does have some highlights, though. Overall, though, this is a much more consistent, listenable, enjoyable release.

[@CobaltSilverBird]

Ok, i NEED to say this.... This is BY FAR the best "random" music i have EVER heard in the last what? 3 or 4 years? I was listening to Haken's Affinity album and this just came in the sequence. I'm SO HAPPY that youtube gave me this. Please, DON'T YOU GUYS EVER stop making music. This is a FUCKING MASTERPIECE 12/10. Eargasms AT FULL POWER!!! P.S.: The track "Crater" is just OUT OF THIS WORLD. GEEEEEZZZZZ

[@alelaera13]

I was listening to Affinity, too. Do you like the album?

[@Rajivrajan1]

+Angelo massimo everyone is here because of haken looks like! lmao. tesseract, haken and this.

[@Dijas]

I absolutely love Haken, but I was brought here by Katatonia's The Great Cold Distance. :) And yes, this is at least the discovery of the month!

[@arch92]

I love haken and katatonia but leprous actually brought me here haha.

[@lefthanddiddlez6379]

I was brought here by for giants!

[@Duct_Tape.]

Someone sent me the link to this in 2016 in an attempt to rekindle my waning interest in metal. I bookmarked it and slept on it. Took a listen today and discovered that not only is it fantastically melodic and diverse, but parts of it were produced in my hometown. The regret is real. I haven't enjoyed a new metal band this much since my first listen to "Still Life" decades ago.

[@DonTheMoron716]

It’s very orchestrated.

[@bookydave8797]

i just randomly clicked on this album because i wanted to find some new music and fuck me this is fucking good im in love!!!!!

7 years have passed since the day this fantastic album was published. And this album is still as amazing as the first time I heard it. Always giving me a lot of shivers, and a high sound quality. I'm looking forward to the release of the new album... Thank you very much for the effort, time and affection that you had to show this work of art to the world.

Wait; that's a debut album? ... Incredible. Keep on going, guys, that's the right way.

I'm never happier than when a band shares their whole album with pride, and I bought this the same day I listened. Still listening in 2020.

Apparently I listed to this before 7 years ago. I just got it in KZbin recommendations again and was COMPLETELY blown away again. Amazing.

[@palibakufun]

Honestly, KZbin throws me in the best of directions sometimes I swear. "Hey, look at this cool random album." "Okay, sure." "Holy shieeettt."

[@throughtheendlessinertia1915]

Totally agree. Their recommended choices are on point!

[@KoMDraegast]

+Ashton Conley It did that for me with this album, also with For Giants- "You are the Universe" and Widek-Journey to the stars. They all blew me away!

[@sleven8013]

Really, that's what I was going to say when I scrolled down to comment! By some chance I clicked on this on my home page. Never heard about them before, but I've been listening to Leprous so I guess the recommendation is based on that? If any of you haven't heard Leprous. Listen to Coal (the full album). Maybe a bit more heavy/progressive than this, but still. One of my brother's greatest finds.

[@palibakufun]

madò che album... tutto perfetto

[@macaron3141592653]

way to use a real orchestra for mob mentality, I'm sick of hearing cheap keyboards humming in the background of like every song. Absolutely stunning

[@EarthsideBand]

+macaron3141592653 There is no other way we could have done it! I'm glad you appreciate this. Jamie spent 4 years orchestrating this himself, starting it at Yale university where he was honing his craft. We are all so proud of Jamie for creating this. We care about having "life" in our music and by collaborating with other musicians instead of midi, we can gain more of that life in a timeless way.

[@macaron3141592653]

+Earthside omg u replied to my comment, that's never happened to me b4 but anyway that sounds incredible, wish you guys the best in the future

[@kelpbeds]

[@rustysteel7231]

[@BenjaminKuruga]

+Earthside I don't know if it was Daniel's idea to do that F5 in A Dream in Static, but it was perfect. This entire album is absolutely amazing.

[@mariush4074]

Stumbled across this album about an hour ago, it is still paused at 12:52 as I am writing this. This is absolutely stellar! Why nobody has pointed me in this direction before baffles me. It is paused because I went over the the Earthside website and ordered the album, Now I am contemplating whether or not to continue listening or wait for the physical copy and have that first listen experience the old fashioned way, while checking out the booklet.

Martin Karas Like Gojira or Tool? Dark Prog Metal? I got you! Try The Ocean. I would start with the albums Heliocentric, and Anthropocentric. Also, you might like Karnivool.

I think I found the glue to repair the hole in my heart left by Porcupine Tree. That glue is called Earthside.

[@GavinMangini]

The hole left because they are still on hiatus? Or because you were disappointed with their later releases? Two very different holes. Credit to this band, but that PT hole can be filled by Steven Wilsons solo work, I promise. ;) I almost am completely at peace with their 6 years of inactivity. Stevens solo work is really out of this world

Totally agree. Steven's solo stuff is alright but there isn't much like their group music.
