[@johnschaffer6968]

They are considered “cinematic rock” so it was spot on when you said it could be in a movie. They have kinda a sci-fi theme to their band, and actually have a novel and comic to go along with their music.

[@TheViper4Life]

I always referred to them as "Cosmic Rock". Their music sounds like something from space to me.

[@davoid1792]

@@TheViper4Life Oh man I love this, I always say Cinematic rock, but I think Cosmic rock is definitely their brand, Cinematic makes me think shinedown more than starset tbh

[@sympathy4643]

their lead singer calls it space rock

[@Illucidex]

They are just sick but great band trials is a great song too

[@clayman478]

Kinda sci-fi? Nah man its all in on sci-fi. I love it.

[@alyssadobbs343]

Also, quick fun fact, their vocalist was a science teacher before Starset got big

[@DIVINGBELL04]

I didn't know that, thanks!

[@stevensmith856]

Actually also holds a Doctorate's degree in Electrical Engineering. Dustin was going to do some next generation technology work. They were also known as Downplay before he met Dr. Adam Wise and the Starset Society.

[@mayank7868]

No cap

[@jermainejackson_95]

This is one of my favorite Starset songs!!! You’ve also gotta react to “Trials”, “Unbecoming”, “Carnivore”, “Die For You”, “Satellite”, “Manifest”, “Where The Skies End”, “Stratosphere”, “Monster”, “Other Worlds Than These”, “Halo”, “Bringing It Down”, “Point Of No Return”, and “Echo”. This is such an amazing band and I’m so happy you’re reacting to them!!!

[@abyss9234]

Don't forget about Telescope !

[@nyoung23]

Literally anything off their discography . They are so good

[@richiedxrko]

Basically everything from the Divisions

[@lordkrampus244]

Just every song from division and vessels

[@lukebailey3662]

Starset is awesome my man. Definitely need to look into Red as well

[@Luke-qs1yc]

Agreed red is dope.

[@lukebailey3662]

Red-Breathe Into Me

[@militaryhistoryIG]

Dustin Bates, the lead singer has a Master in Electrical Engineering and researched with the USAF as well has teaching at Ohio University. As for the "it could be in a movie", the band takes that to heart, turning the band into more of an experience than a single act. For the first album, they hyped up a science/aliens conspiracy theory that promoted the band, using exclusive "leaks" etc to grow it. The second album had an entire novel written before the release as the "introduction". For the most recent album, their website was a "hack to use" website, where fans had to actually program aspects of the website in order to unlock information about the upcoming album, dates, etc. Starset is more of an experience with a soundtrack than a simple band.

[@Brandon2940]

What the hell!??? I've only ever heard this song plus "Satelite". That is all super awesome actually! And they have another album coming out!?

[@militaryhistoryIG]

@@Brandon2940 They currently have three albums out! I would guess they have another one in the works, because they recently release a cover of Kashmir and had a demo clip for a game trailer in November.

[@Brandon2940]

@@militaryhistoryIG Ooooh!! Iistened to both albums and fucking LOVE them! I'm excited to hear the third one! Hey... do you know what that thing is Dustin is always messing with when they play live?

[@masonroberds1366]

Wow no kidding, I really like their music

[@Arnamoo]

FYI: Starsets records are an overarching Story. It starts with this album transmissions where they're contacted from the outer space that humanity is in danger followed by vessels and downfall of humanity with trials as earth is been taken over And the lead singer of starset has a PhD in physics 😂

[@jmommer1982]

the song "Other Worlds than These" makes me feel like hes from another planet coming here to warn/save humanity!!

[@devindratoolsie2018]

Yeah i don't think he picked up the references with today, the future , tesla and jp morgan

[@mayoactual2065]

That’s why the music videos often have cuts to different time-periods

[@thebloodsucker8644]

Correction: They messenge Is from the future, and the Album Divisions Is where they made it to year 2049 and find out BMI (Brain Machine Interface) control human beings. Theory of Vessel Is that they are on their way to it, and as for Horizon i think is the change of each person After everything (Transmission, Vessels, and Division) Full story is in their comic: The Prox Transmission

[@mr.muffin7609]

(maybe) Additional correction, Dustin has a degree in electrical engineering, not physics if i remember correctly@@thebloodsucker8644

[@Zenuwtrekjes]

Now that you listen to this masterpiece, listen to Monster and or Everglow. Such bangers!

[@wym.xzavier]

bro we gotta get him on more starset fr fr

[@Ragnxrr]

Hell yeah he has to do this, Starset is such an underrated band

[@chuckieboy343]

Nah, he needs to do trials 1 and trials 2.0

[@maxxdoutt3585]

Facts. Satellite my fave off the 2nd album probably. Ricochet and Back to the Earth are fire too

[@corncob2784]

i agree but i prefer bring it down 2.0

Absolutely love Starset. You should do "Monster" from them next

[@loulounerose4034]

Or satellite!

[@cattywampuswiddershins]

@@loulounerose4034 basically most Starset songs. Unbecoming is another great song, imo, and then Ricochet, which is the only song that has ever rivaled My Demons as being my favorite.

They’re amazing live as well. Super energetic and include the crowd at every moment possible

He should listen to point of no return by starset

[@hkassault1228]

Love your videos. I've seen several and appreciate your open mindedness to all types and styles of music. Thank you for making these.

[@beebeehay]

As a long time viewer I can say starset was way long overdew for a reaction, please do more of them in the future. It has begun, Satellite, Richochet, Perfect Machine, Trials and Dark on me are in my opinion all really good ones that you should react to. (well to be honest you should react to all their music because in my opinion I haven't heard a single bad song from them)

[@someotherguyy]

haven't even watched the video yet but i gotta give you some props.. i fucking love this band and its cool to see at least one big youtube reactor give them a chance.

[@BubbaBearGames]

Well, that's why Starset calls their music "Cinematic Rock", and is one reason I'm a HUGE fan of Starset! Whenever you get an opportunity, listen to the album "My Demons" is on, Transmissions in its entirety, that's where I suggest you start. From there, is their second album, Vessels. Finally, their most recent album, Divisions, which came out in 2019.

[@blakeleystormfeather6962]

I have one of the lead singers bow ties. I caught it when I was 12 at a concert. Sits on the shelf with all my other concert stuff. Also major kudos to the guitarists. When I saw them live they wore the space suits from this video the ENTIRE time and it was in the middle of summer!

[@sickdoinkster8995]

Man seeing you without a hat on is so weird, Like I'm so used to you reping the hats.

[@Courier_Eris]

Ive seen this in person twice in venues that were less than 500 people. They were amazing both times. Their integration of rock and synth and tech is unmatched

[@TNN_Phoenix]

This is one of my favorite songs and you should do carnivore by starset

[@KXiao2]

Layedbak really the goat. Love seeing artist I love on his channel

[@occultunknown6208]

I would definitely suggest Starlight it's one of my favorite songs by them of all time.

[@agentomega2195]

I’m sure you don’t see the comments from videos this old but thank you for reacting to this.this is on of the only songs my father who passed last year showed me growing up. He had one of the best music tastes I’ve ever heard

[@williamrobinson5442]

My face was the same as his in the thumbnail when I saw he wasn't wearing a cap😂

[@Beamin439]

LOL his face when the beat suddenly dropped. thats by far my favorite part of this song is how you have your standard quiet, slow intro and you think "ok here comes the build up" then BOOM it just drops on you

[@osielsalinas3748]

I've seen starset live twice and at the first time i saw them i actually didnt even know that they were gonna be there. The second time i got to meet the cello player. Anything by starset is amazing.

[@valence_drive]

I'd recommend specific songs, but pretty much everything by Starset is great, if not at least decent. Go wild.

[@brittanyrose6388]

No one that I know has ever heard this song. I can't believe you're doing a reaction to it I love this song!!!

Perfect Machine is my personal favorite atm

[@DanielQuan97]

*Where the skies end* is my favorite. I heard when it first came out and it was during one of the most difficult times in my life; that chorus... It fills me with motivation. I love *all* of their songs.

LayedBak listening to Rock: *drop hits* "Gets me every time, so loud" *cringing* LayedBak listening to Rap: *drop hits* "Ayeee, let's go! It hits hard!" *808s in the song hitting so hard MY windows are vibrating* You can tell its not his favorite stuff but I respect the grind and he listens to his patreons.

[@matthewsmith8727]

First time i heard the orignial version. I stumbled on Caleb Hyles's cover and enjoyed it so i figured i'd react to the original along with layedbak

Hey, you probably wouldn't have hear of this quitar player more less rock, he was Irish did pass away about 30 years ago about early 30s. He was born in Ireland and very well known, his three songs I think you may like would be Bad Penny, and Follow, and maybe Keychain. Love from Ireland. Edit: Forgot his name, his name is Rory Gallagher.

[@themcking5987]

STARSET!!! OMG YES FINALLY THIS IS MY FAV BAND. Alright you really gotta react to more of these guys, all their songs are bangers

[@aaronth777]

This song has a Christian meaning about feeling helpless and surrounded by demons/the enemy, then asking God to help him out of it. "Take me high and I'll sing, you make everything okay. We are one in the same, you take all of my pain away. Save me if I become my demons" however the chorus, taken out of context, could be about a drug addiction

[@ultimatetrishbhatia]

It's actually not about that, but yeah it can be interpreted in a lot of ways.

[@joecampbell6103]

the gist of this song is he's talking to God when he says we are one in the same he's referring to how God made us in His image and when he says you take all the pain away it means that we can find peace in him

[@onlynovas]

I always took it as in he’s speaking to someone who shares the same mindset and feels how he feels. Almost how if he is consumed by the evil within him(his anxiety), he trusts they’ll pull him back to reality. Whether it be a friend or s/o, but I can totally see the angle you’re looking at it from 👍

[@Slash-RedRose]

@@onlynovas Definitely how it sounds. Not religious lol. It has the same energy as Dark On Me when it comes to lyrics. Stuck in his mind hoping to be saved by someone he cares about.

[@onlynovas]

@@Slash-RedRose I mean, yeah that’s how I see it, but I think music is always up for interpretation. That’s what makes music (art in general) so incredibly beautiful.
