FIRE BY THE SILOS | The Making Of

[@gehennafam8426]

Some say, Ben is still tracking that drum piece..

[@SnaketheJake87]

I sincerely did not want this to end. This is easily the best album I've heard in a very long time. Please, please, please, find your way to the States. I will follow your tour till the end.

[@MateNako]

Ok, now that's gonna be an hour well spent.

[@ЛевХорошилов]

More then an hour actualy... What about 9318462 times I rewatched it?

[@escritaemdia3414]

GLORIOUS STUFF and AWESOMENESS footage

[@brandonzimmerman7010]

Dude! wasn't The Parallax Orchestra part of the Alter Bridge Live at the Royal Albert Hall concert? That's awesome you got them for your album!

[@hack-ta-guitare]

You guys achieved a masterpiece. Fire by the Silos is something never heard before. Unique and massive tone, very soulful. I love it so much that I listen to it almost everyday for at least a month. Thanks for creating such great music and making instrumental metal going beyond its limits.

[@TNEWBerlin]

I love these "in the studio" documentations! Sooooooooo interesting!

[@astro_gabe]

Absolutely amazing. Toska is easily the biggest influence on my own guitar style and this video just deepens my love for Fire By The Silos. I hope we'll get to hear a lot more Toska in the future!

[@vokeyguitars]

Super inspiring for those of us who hope to record a project one day. Thanks for making your music authentic and “within reach” to aspiring artists- so to speak.

[@bradjonesband1818]

You guys are now the proud owners of the sickest video on youtube!!! I’m not even in to metal and this has been one of the most entertaining hours of music I’ve seen!!!! Love your work bea.

[@stealthy7]

Haven't sat mesmerised for so long in a LONG time. Superb. Three Amigos - love you guys and your music.

[@evanhancock4657]

I like to listen to the album while I run in the morning. Always find myself running to the beat. Wish I could see it performed live!

[@poodie2814]

Your reaction at 39:23 remind me of the joy that comes from playing guitar.

[@mikoap24]

Toska is pure love and eargasm... Love from India ❤️❤️❤️

[@shelbyman6372]

I love watching bands make documentaries about the album process like this. The creative environment that a studio makes for an artist is something I consistently dream of. Great work on this one you guys, Fire by the Silos is definitely an album I will cherish and find myself wanting to listen to very often.

[@fakeyogurt7998]

Honestly, Fire by the Silos is the best album of the year. I fucking love it!!! I can't take it out of my mind... thank you guys, I really enjoy it.

[@CodyAlushin]

I knew this had Rory magic all over it! VERY well done

[@cortical1]

Brilliant, inspiring, inspired, and wired, as always guys. Love the checkered Vans, Bea (SoCal loves you). Love Dave's inability to go five seconds without removing the cover off a piece of equipment. Love Ben's ever-evolving hairscape. And, of course, all of the talent and hard work that make you guys the virtuosos that you are. Loving Silos. If you ever have trouble funding another album, you let me know. I will personally do it. You think I'm joking. Happy birthday to Baby Jesus from Cardiff-by-the-Sea (San Diego).

[@FernandoRivera-dm7hh]

Watching the making of albums always gives me a deeper love of them, and this was no exception. Thanks for this Bea (Ben and Dave too) love your music forever.

[@vladimirpavlovic9488]

Great album. I got it by preorder! Whaat a bang for the buck. Sound is just awesome as well, very well produced. The highlight for me is Daves bass sound. It is very well written, it is sound-wise complex almost as much as Beas guitar sound and you can just hear every little bit, note, line, effect that's been recorded. I am not afraid to say it is the best produced bass sound I've ever heard on any rock, metal, heavy album so far.

[@TheOddKris]

That's what I call an early Christmas present! thanks, Bea :D

[@lucasmakowski1939]

Cannot thank you gents enough for taking us on this journey of all your hard work. When I turn on some Toska, this album literally stays on repeat for hrs...so very looking forward to the next chapter. Keep kill'n it fellas!

[@p.c.1019]

ABSOLUTELY FUCKING AWESOME!!!!!!! One of the best pieces of film, I’ve EVER SEEN in my 5 + DECADES! I’m gifting a shitload of your albums. Please vinyl too! Congratulations, gentlemen. You absolutely, undoubtedly deserve this. Thanks for the killer groove, and nasty licks! Go Toska!

[@Markus0200]

This is amazing, I love the album and I loved the studio documentary Periphery did so this was awesome to see. I have to say, Adam Jones and yourself are two of my biggest tone influences so seeing you incorporate the Diezel was great.

[@xthexadvantagex]

These are my favorite type of videos and bonus it’s with my favorite new band

[@TheCoronaMortis]

[@gustintendo40]

Huge thanks to “Toska or [Bea], Ben and Dave” for your astounding and extensive dedication to a full-length record which in my opinion is nothing less than remarkable. I’ve been recommending this album to all my metal-head friends and anyone willing to listen. Please consider coming to the States when you tour! Merry Christmas!

[@lindsaymobil22]

I adore these documentaries. I always end up with even more of an admiration for the tracks after this than I already had. I remember watching the Ode To The Author recording video and I ended up absolutely obsessed with that EP after that (still am to this day). Looks like I'm gonna end up obsessed again with this album! I need tabs or something like right now after watching this haha

[@40spinup]

Dave gets attacked by a Devonshire lamp shade!😂

[@romfordmobbsy]

You know, I just want to say thank-you. For this beautiful album and for the way you present it. We all grew up with the 'rock and roll' shark's head stories and all that, and we all love that classic rock thing, but it's so refreshing to see a group of brilliant musicians recording, with no less care and passion, music on which we all can feast, alongside the giants of the 60s and 70s. And you all seem like fucking good blokes too. Cheers.

[@AMBowers29]

Oh man. This is giving me the extra push to get some momentum. Thank you guys for your help in this jungle

[@kyleboggs1966]

This album has been on repeat for over a week for me! Awesome to see the behind the scenes. Great record!

[@oleksandrhorskyi8442]

Okay, this album was fire since it's release, might be the album of the year for me. But the footage is made in such a fashion that it flows like an album itself, very consistent and firm. All those transitions, samples from your songs, effects and video inserts from the album cover! Rabea, Dave, Ben - you guys kick so much ass, wow, just wow! I can't contain myself

[@SaphroxStudios]

Absolutely loved this. The album is great. Every time I listen to it I hear something new,....but it’s was so awesome to see how it was all put together. I’ve been recording for 28 years and You guys have reinvigorated my experimentation and enjoyment of the process. Never get old guys. Good work and thank you.

[@owenjenkins_]

seen em in london!! best gig of my life, met them and everything

[@shapes2000]

Next level musicianship. Great work.

[@markydelbs4336]

Always love watching documentaries of albums getting recording. Have a merry Christmas, Rabea!

[@DannyBeardsley]

Absolutely fantastic. Incredibly inspiring and thank you for sharing this work of art! All the best to you guys! 👍👍👍

[@tomthedome755]

Great stuff . It's nice to see how U'r working . Awesome job Guys . I Hope to see U live someday . Thanx for the briliant album . Greetings from Poland , Tychy , Tom :)

[@harveymagher]

just finished it and of course it was amazing. still pinching myself that after all of this time, you've released an album and not only that its been out for nearly two months. without a doubt its my album of the year x

[@jesseyasaitis9036]

Just bought the album......F*cking Epic! Hats off to you guys.

[@lukenicholsonoriginalmusic5475]

Simply magical

[@bandshooting]

In love with the Silos💗 Thx for releasing such a great progressive, ambient rec🤘🏻and bts vid. Enjoyed the tour (Hamburg&Köln). Great work, guys! Cheers and lovely Christmas, Harry

[@mickfretty8038]

This album is stunning, perfect music, I love everything about it. Great to get a glimpse of the creative and mechanical processes of recording it. Please keep making albums boys! 🙏

[@ernoldt2]

Thanks, Toska! Amazing album and an incredibly well edited "Making of". I'm also blown away by how beautiful the production on the album is. Cheers, guys. :D

[@mpactdesignmedia]

I DIG this work! I've listened thru probably about 8 times now and it gets better every time. Well done!

[@phillalex88]

It's really cool to me that the two people they thanked at the end they sited are from the Parallax orchestra. Alter Bridge just put out a live album with the Parallax orchestra. So my two favorite bands are connected in some way.

[@64thBuck]

Seriously inspiring stuff. An hour very well spent. Thank you guys and congrats on all the success, it's not only very well deserved but well earned as demonstrated here.

[@sahiljagtiani]

Looking forward to hearing this one and some of the ambient intros sound absolutely dreamtheatreish! The Strymons have really added a different dimension to your playing. Keep up the great work.

[@IronBroadsword1]

Now this is a great christmas gift, cheers guys!

[@ThomasLintrup]

Well done! Definitely one of the best records of 2018! Happy holidays

[@paulleach3462]

Excellent video... really well put together. Cheers.

[@TheRuobi]

Beautiful work! There's almost nothing in the world that gets me as wonderfully happy as Toska does. Thank you for existing and thank you for this progumentary part 2 :)

[@JCMJustin]

This is absolutely brilliant! Thank you for this guys!

[@dso2525]

Fantastic, can't wait to watch this tonight :) Thank you and happy holidays!

[@akshitjha6251]

Okay, this was special. Thank you Rabea, Dave and Ben.

[@DavidHunterChunkyRiffs]

You should all be really proud. It sounds massive. My ears are still ringing from the Birmingham gig \m/

[@stickdrumsnrocknroll]

That's amazing guys ! Awesome ! Thanks to share this with us :)

[@irrsinnrainer]

Thank you guys for letting us be part of your journey to make this record! It's one of my personal favourites of 2018. I hope we get another great record in the future, where you guys take part on, when Dorje finally records an album ;)

[@liquor8396]

listen to this album when ever i go for high rounds on zombies awesome to see how this master piece is made!!

[@Mesatallic]

Absolutely Stunning Album!

[@kevinneil6196]

Still sick, listen to the whole album through at least once a week. Need more Toska!!!!! Please come tour the states!!! Specifically Dallas Texas 😏

[@bouz49]

You guys rock ! Your album is freaking good !

[@gabrielpettit3989]

This is so sick! It's inspiring as hell too. So glad you guys did one of these!

[@tonyebner6297]

Im really glad you guys made this video

[@timvinck]

I really love the new album so to see how it came together is really interesting. Thanks for posting this, I really enjoyed it! :)

[@snakeeyes7763]

Fantastic insight into a great band and album!

[@harryvincent]

Amazing video, saw you guys in Sheffield. It was the loudest gig I have ever been to, haha

[@TraneFrancks]

"Always better with Brew Dog." -- Amen, brother. I loves me a good IPA. This was epic. When my band recorded back in 2005, it was an all-night session to record the entire album off the floor in one 12-hour go. I then spent about a hundred hours mixing and mastering the lot myself. This was a wonderful look into how an entirely different approach looks.

[@justinbouchard]

I just clicked and I'm already going to say I hope there's plans for more of these.

[@BPatient1]

But where do the spoken parts come from?

[@markgilson7404]

Sounds like Jude Law...

[@joseph_lacy]

BPatient1 that's what I want to know! They're amazing

[@romandy]

Same question! I’ve been wondering since the record came out where those parts come from

[@newtonmurphy2535]

As far as I can trust my ears, the narration in Fire By the Slios is Ben himself. But the Stuff in The Heard and Prayermonger... no idea

[@lmcf_gtr]

@@newtonmurphy2535 FBTS is definitely not Ben 😂

[@murphyia1980]

This was great. The album is great. You guys are great. Merry Christmas!

[@johannesgadeglesnerandreas4882]

rushed home from work to see this!! just so awesome!!

[@ChannelGilly]

Nice , Rab . Good luck , Mate . Hope it came out the way you wanted it , because I fucken love it !

[@Ric007Mason]

Wicked man. Just wicked!! 🤟🏻🎸

[@rndm_rob]

I felt this hour.. loved it.

[@andrewbailey7999]

Rabea, your dance to When Genghis Wakes near the end made my day haha

[@IStabz]

Awesome to see the music creation at work!!

[@10brucelees]

To me, the point made about capturing the live sound is the absolute key. To capture the energy and slight looseness of a live performance is the holy grail for me. However, this of course is just my opinion and I fully appreciate others might want a more produced sound. Anyway, fantastic bit of documentary. I loved it.

[@10brucelees]

ps everyone has a percussion box lol

[@nicholash4525]

inspired. Thank You

[@jerrymilam5876]

Hey Brother ,its Jerry again.Love the studio, It sounds like it came with a bonus prize of great tone.I know that theirs not much in the bank to burst but I`m digging what your putting down.As always, keep up the great work .

[@Hairyloft]

Thanks for sharing this early, great vid. Awesome to see the magic and joy to record those moments in time. 😍

[@KaosGate]

Thank you

[@TheRemizinho]

Such a cool video, guys! Great atmosphere

[@connoragnewmusic]

Funny how Prayermonger was the sketchiest recording but is my favourite track on the album

[@heymrguitarman7637]

Here in 2024 and i honestly feel if Toska had brought on the right vocalist, the band wouldve been pretty massive

[@SweatlifeFilms]

Sounds wicked guys!

[@HighOnYouDroneBoy]

Awesome documentary guys! Love it!

[@officialdinodoestuff]

I'd love to hear the isolated tracks from this album

[@jamesmarno]

Great album and equally great video.

[@diegodoesmusic]

Awesome documentary and awesome album 🤘

[@TomSmith-hq1ok]

That was awesome! I’m excited to get back into the studio myself! Was hoping we would get to see the spoken word parts

[@jackferis1656]

I loved every minute of this

[@Jinballify]

On this album Ben was king, full stop. And now we know why. :D I mean, the whole thing is just stellar, but those drums are really something else man.

[@ScottGailor]

Holy shit this is so good

[@juksteri]

Plz bring this awesomeness into Finland!

[@robinr6744]

Simply epic

[@CeyhanCaglar]

Now you need a Les Paul Custom...

I asked him to buy that one. But he wouldn’t sell it haha

[@shelbyman6372]

@@RabeaMassaad Please get one!

[@allanallan4791]

Great stuff new fan here really liking your baritone work.

[@drphalanges1520]

You guys are kind of like Tool and Mastodon but with even better riffs. You might even replace Tool as my favorite band lol.

[@newtonmurphy2535]

Already did it for me
