getting destroyed by breakdowns from AOTY Saviour - 'Shine & Fade' for 9 minutes and 13 seconds

[@Nelkami]

So I listen to new music as I play my video games. When I got to this album, the first track caught my attention. I put down my game to listen to this without any distraction. The game was Elden Ring. I put down Elden Ring to listen to Saviour

[@alecvero3312]

Saviour: Put this foolish game to rest.

[@icanmakeeverythingilovedie9861]

9.9/10 for me. Only real issue is that this album was way too short, another song or two at this quality is a 10.

[@emmastheme1631]

it was originally a EP but they didn't want to cut songs

[@mataeria]

5:19 that's exactly it, it's basically both metalcore and post/melodic hardcore at the same time and in a perfect balance all the way through, so glad i found this band. BTW that chorus and the melodic guitars in Racing Home are god tier stuff, my favourite track atm.

[@iMattLewis]

It’s like a combination of Amity Affliction, Make Them Suffer, old Northlane(with Adrian) and Buried in Verona And I’m so in love!

[@sangeethrajhopper4130]

From pure chonk and heavy breakdowns to ballads, they have it all

[@freedomcall76]

So glad you reacted to them, this band is so good! Sick guitar tunes and solos everywhere which always keep your attention, groovy breakdowns and three damn good vocalists. But mostly I like the chilling vibe of a lot of the songs on the album, while they are still heavy as fck

[@designateddriveranddragons8845]

I’m sure this comparison has been made countless times, but for me just now hearing them, they remind me a lot of recent Make Them Suffer

[@ZekPlaysHD]

Both bands are from Perth and came up round the same time, so wouldn't be surprised for a bit of crossover.

[@ralphozer2037]

Saviour and MtS are best friends

[@scottthebot2779]

That and some of the riffage reminds me of Currents

[@RebelKicks-mn4kc]

This album is incredible, but I still got Pridelands - Light Bends as my AOTY. That album I feel like went super under the radar. It’s like if Northlane expanded on the Node/Mesmer sound. Node is my favorite Northlane album (hot take) so Light Bends is an absolute masterpiece in my opinion

[@FoughtAgaisntSisera]

remember seeing these guys in australia back in the early 2010s and they always put on an amazing show. so glad to see them finally breaking out and getting some well deserved recognition. goes to show never to give up

[@chrizszx]

What a great discovery, 10/10

[@AnglerAddictsTV]

Never heard of this band before. Tidal Wave, Black Rosary, Younger, Cynical, and Wishing Well are my personal favorites from the album. From first and second listen, this seems to be one of those albums where I don't hate it, don't love it. Just like it. I enjoyed the vocals a lot. Hopefully this album grows on me.

[@ajfite1277]

It does grow on you, but it’s not beating monuments for me

[@kyledean4512]

I forgot how heavy this band is. They trick you with the clean vocals and the melody's but then the breakdowns hit and its like you get hit by a train.

[@anthonymonterosso7472]

Like others have mentioned, there are definite Erra vibes, but the breakdowns give me Invent Animate vibes like big time

[@graymind]

so good. this actually reminds me a bit of In Hearts Wake very first album...at least the breakdowns are somewhat reminiscent of that album.

[@ghostnerddd133]

Man I just love how this band can get batshit heavy to emotional catchy choruses, I love them so much theyre so good

[@dissectingthescene8260]

My guy, this album is totally 10/10. Possible AOTY! Love the reactions. Not a single skip. Each song feels so different and unique. So hard to pick a favorite.

[@shrimpyy420]

tidal wave is so fucking good i can't get enough of that song

[@pedroivomolina]

So far this album is my AOTY. Still remember when I first listened to Empty Skies when it released. It was what I needed at that time of my life. It was so beautiful

[@dewaalvandercolff251]

This album and Allt's ep has been on repeat since release. Tidal Wave and Black Rosery are definitely my favourites on the album.

[@geralmentemathias]

Listen to latest Grayscale Season album, thank me later

[@dittet]

Love this! No idea how I missed this album and your reaction to it. They are awesome!

[@jxffrey6231]

OMF Thank you for showing us this band, Ngl i didn't know this band before, and after hearing this, I'm HOOKED!!!

[@Milkshakee96]

Perth represent… I remember my band opening for these legends like 8 years ago 😭 They’ve always gone hard!!

[@Tico1818]

Man this sounds super good. Not sure if it's just me, but I hear hella influence/similarities to ERRA, specifically their album Drift and sometimes Neon? Either way i digggggggg

[@-Jake-]

I hear a lot of ERRA as well

[@HeyImJWB]

Saviour is one of the reasons I'm proud to be Australian

[@nabielpramana]

The amount of incredible bands Australia has produced is just insane

[@ajfite1277]

As an American, I got like three bands to be proud of😂

[@ShannonRedhand]

Found them after 1st single (Younger), really made me feel a lot of shit. Digged in, cant stop listening to band overall. So, fucking, awesome, even their earlier stuff. This album might outshine Erra's self-titled for me. And again, its May, and I already know what my AOTY will be.

[@AJNunezMusic]

Glad I watched this video. These guys are awesome! Erra meets Make Them Suffer kinda

[@whitewheatbix9193]

More people need to hear this album/band is absolutely right, these guys are master at their craft and deserve all the recognition they can get

[@winningdesigns6067]

I've been a fan of Saviour since the beginning and with each album they push further and bring something more. I would recommend for everyone to listen to their old stuff as they were melodic hardcore and heavy af.

[@dcpoker3246]

Check out side project when Saviour were on hiatus called I Am Zero by the lead vocalist 🤘

[@chrisy4011]

Just got done listening to this album. It fucks. Some songs remind me of Invent Animate vibes.

[@amconthetrack5008]

They did this album justice by making it 8 tracks. The songs themselves have enough vibey interludes in them, they didn't the short intro, outro and interlude tracks. They made this album so solid, start to finish. Gotta say this may be AOTY so far for me. It hits that spot on all levels for me!

[@DizzyMan24]

Randomly found these guys on KZbin one day. Listening since!

[@shrimpyy420]

that album is wild

[@新题型]

Love the breakdown pose. (⬅🤜 🤛➡)

[@danielwilson7900]

So hard to choose a favourite song from this album. The whole album is just pure! As soon it was released i purchased the Vinyl immediately! One of the best albums i have listened to in a long time! Their official Music Videos is just pure!!

[@EscapexEU]

First listened to Saviour back in 2018 when I Found their song Never Sleep loved them ever since

[@Ghostlulz]

Love this band. Miss the concert in Sydney! So underrated band. Hope for an European tour this year 🤞

[@fjelwick]

Thanks for uploading this, this band is sick god damn.

[@jessemiles5856]

Glad I'm not the only one who gets those facial expressions when I hear this stuff... so damn good :0

[@Quartercaste]

8 tracks of killers and 0 fillers.

[@lukeherndon]

Harsh vocals sound like Make them Suffer and the cleans sound like Caskets to me. I’m headed straight from this video to listen to this album in full!

[@McDouble2387]

I’m honestly ashamed that I didn’t give this album a listen until over a year later. This is incredible.

[@fourcekin]

Wait how did the racing home breakdown not make it in here noooo 😩 that caught me off guard bad

[@howie8599]

Great reaction 🤘

[@iMattLewis]

What the fuck do we feed our population to produce this shit over and over again?! Thank you for introducing me to yet another top tier metal band from down under

[@ivanmndza]

Can't stop listening this album, is the AOTY for me

[@LofiLifestyle_0822re]

A new band for my playlist

[@AlienGrain]

I waited for "Tidal Wave is a latent title track" Firstly I didn't get this release that much, but now I realize it can be AOTY to me either

[@ivebeengab]

I love how they are somehow close to silent planet and above, below

[@somprsn2525]

Love it😁😁😁 been waiting for this one

[@nitrouscatfish5827]

I'm getting make them suffer vibes. Like old school mts, without the death, slower, with more cleans and ambiance.

[@nitrouscatfish5827]

0:23 God damn that breakdown is so jarring.

[@henkhans7497]

4:38 I feel you man

[@JUNK_ZONE]

Wow, that one breakdown reminded me of Attila a bit, even had a "yeaaahhhhuhh".

[@darealalia9408]

Holy shit Black Rosary might be song of the year

[@joturna1]

This band is so underrated 🙏😢

[@LMonty10]

Glad you like em too🤘

[@masonshucart7055]

Hm this is not what I remember Saviour sounding like. This is pretty rad.

[@byron2652]

Their sound is so hard to describe. It's bedroom rock, dream pop, driving rock, melodic hardcore ala The Ghost Inside + Misery Signals, ambient progressive metalcore like Invent Animate + Currents, mixed with Silversun Pickups and Of Monsters and Men clean vocals. It's so wild. This band is so slept on. Hopefully this reaction gets people to notice finally.

[@zanemullins9907]

Hard to beat that monuments but man savior is awesome

[@thefransvan5966]

This is dreamy beyond belief.

[@Turiyaband]

All meat 0 filler

[@StegzGaming]

Love finding bands I've never heard of that I end up loving! Thanks man

[@midoxbz]

album of the year so far

[@KhaosKontroller]

I don't usually can things Architectscore, but this is 100% Architectscore.

[@thekiminthenorth504]

Check new betraying the Martyrs

[@Glintingbeetle]

Check his twitch streams

[@Squidguards]

First time listening Saviour & easy 10/10 from me ❤

[@joshvalencia4390]

Yea this fucks hard

[@plutosrose5046]

Riffs remind me of Invent Animate somewhat

[@joshgrimm8443]

Lunar rose next?

[@emmastheme1631]

MY LOCALS!!!

[@Bendrums]

This album is s tier

[@abhaykumarsingh7081]

Definitely AOTY!

[@juanmata5750]

Like it, did not love it tbh. Nothing bad, just not my sound. The girl voice is something special for sure

[@gavintshepho9606]

Core Album of the year CONTENDER 2022.🎸🔥🔥🤘

[@LittleBrainBoy]

One tiny complaint is that in certain Songs, f.e. "Tidal Wave" they are a bit too close to the Doomsday Architects Sound for me. Apart from that this Album is fire!

[@Beardus_Maximus]

MY BROTHER IN CHRIST WE HAVE FOUND OUR SAVIOUR

[@ericroberts5623]

Horribly slept on band

[@tnsmmu3269]

Good album but not even close to AOTY. I mean we have Monuments, Northlane, Bad Omens and VOM incoming (hopefully).

[@Dippedinblackink]

AOTY still belongs to Enterprise Earth.

[@Glintingbeetle]

Amazing album too! Both that and Saviour are in my current toplist for this year

[@chrisy4011]

Not even close.

[@icanmakeeverythingilovedie9861]

I have to agree, but fuck is it close. If this album was just a bit longer, I think it takes it.

[@Dippedinblackink]

@@icanmakeeverythingilovedie9861 imo it’s not close. EE set the new standard for Deathcore.

[@Santiago-rm4ft]

@@Dippedinblackink My AOTY too, and I agree. What’s your favorite track? I think mine right now is You Couldn’t Save Me

[@half_empty_soul6534]

7/10 too clean and generic

[@bigbunn_]

Wow another generic metalcore band😃not even close to aoty

[@bogdanhxc]

if this is generic to you, I have bad news

[@Thir0ck]

bruh

[@Grenixity]

Bruh

[@Peter_Velardi]

Geez give me a break. 3 vocalists, one female who offers some of the most ethereal and vibey cleans ever. Layers on layers that all serve a purpose. Incredibly progressive guitar work that only a handful of bands are matching right now, vibes and atmosphere for days on every song. Satisfying impact with every breakdown. Chonkyyy ass guitar tone. Yeah sounds pretty generic to me.

[@Glintingbeetle]

bruh
