Haken - Messiah Complex FULL

[@blacklinkker5679]

During the show that happened in Curitiba, Brazil 2023, when the show was almost over we all screamed "ONE MORE SONG" multiple times, then someone by my side said "MESSIAH COMPLEX!!!", Ross stood up and said "Technically... that's 5 songs", they proceeeded to play Messiah complex Flawlessly, and we had an awesome moshpit during ectobius rex. Best show iv'e ever been to!

[@InterludeArchitect1]

It was the plan!!

[@davidem759]

the amazing sensation you feel when you find the full version only to have it interrupted by ads

[@miniwheatduo]

Ohhh no youtube put ads on this?? 😭

[@kenjones6441]

Buy the bloody thing then

[@lucasfarias6608]

use Opera GX bro, that's heaven made searcher

By the way, i went to see them live last sunday and they did it to close the set...absolutely amazing

[@marcuss.2647]

i just saw them live and hearing this song in full live is the greatest experience ever

[@miniwheatduo]

That's so dope man! I'm seeing them live Wednesday, can't wait

[@marcuss.2647]

@@miniwheatduo ooooh have fun they're set is SO GOOD RN

[@CloudMountainJuror]

Just saw them live last night, and fully agreed. Seeing this live was supremely cathartic.

[@Phunkophil]

Singing and headbanging along to Ectobius Rex was one of the best experiences I witnessed in live music ever. Fucking wild.

[@sofiapinheiro4236]

Totally agree!

[@terr4c0]

Some references 3:39 Outro from "Host" 4:32 Vocal line is the "Nil by Mouth" Outro 5:32 Melody from "Nil by Mouth" (1:18) 5:47 Very similar to "Puzzle Box" chorus 10:31 and 12:57 "Cockroach King" verse 11:22 and 11:53, the "Cockroach King" lick played over and over 14:47 Melody from the "Prosthetic" interlude

[@michal.friedman]

12:02 - Shapeshifter (Visions) intro!

[@bennybyers1409]

5:32 is also from “Nil by Mouth”

[@terr4c0]

@@michal.friedman From my point of view, that's a coincidence because the band never said before that Virus has relation with Visions and also the rythm is similar but the armony is other. Anyway, thanks, good ear.

With all the great stuff Haken has done this is one of my favourite things. Can't stop listening to it.

[@leandro0rsantos]

What a masterpiece! The more I listem to it, the more I want to listen to it

[@stevenstewart8275]

Makes me want to get an 8 string now. Love the riffs on this!

[@1ndr4n4th]

8:29 is soooo amazing! I'm surprised no one's commenting!!

[@the4given196]

well atleast 1 person is commenting jokes aside marigold and the start of the sekt is defenitly the highlight of messiah complex

[@EliudPunkX]

Finally the full version is available! Thanks bro

[@KevRyanCG]

Saw them this past weekend in Montreal, I somehow completely missed Virus and so the 17 minute encore of Messiah Complex was a bit lost on me. But god damn it was incredible. Need to go back and give the album a proper listen.

[@vollycacti2767]

I've only heard this as one complete song because of a friend then he said no one's put this completed version up yet Thanks for correcting that

[@Lumen99]

8:51 this riff is so heavy it's unreal.

[@bennybyers1409]

Personally i think 12:30 takes the cake

[@IAmAWWWWEEESSSOOMEEE]

12:30 is definitely it

[@anormalsizedmanandanapartm1876]

@@bennybyers1409 Seeing/hearing/experiencing 12:30 live would cumulatively release more endorphins from the crowd than I can possibly imagine.

[@bennybyers1409]

@@anormalsizedmanandanapartm1876 yeah hopefully they actually play this song on their tour in May. I was super disappointed that they didn't on the symphony X tour.

[@sirspookybones1118]

​@Benny Byers they're playing it on the European tour so I hope they play it from now on. I'm gonna be seeing them on the final date of the UK leg of the EU tour, so that's gonna be exciting.

[@liloxrock]

nutty, absolute masterpiece

[@GreatswordDude]

During the process of success of this album, 3 days before it sales to buy and it share in the official channel of HAKEN, HAKEN put the entire messiah in just 1 song, in a very very hiding link, only a few hours. I was there.

[@RiverBelow93]

Thanks for uploading. Greetings from Ireland

[@CorrodedMoon]

Its so hard to decide if this or celestial elixir is my favourite haken song, they are both just too good

[@aussieeffinpete]

Thank you so much 😎

[@miniwheatduo]

Oh, this is actually published now?? I'm so surprised, it was blocked in every country for months haha

[@NinthSettler]

this song is poggers

[@ua2894]

best Haken song ever? probably.

The intro is more Megadeath than Megadeath!

10:32 did anybsidy else catch the cockroach king bit in there

[@wolframvonstein4526]

Me here. Not nearly as obvious as the one beginning at 12:57 though...

[@darkoss551]

Yeah but did you catch all the little references?

[@paulsc4689]

@@darkoss551 probably not

[@Vee_Sheep]

on my first listen, i noticed some similar wording throughout the album and i was pleasantly surprised as it got more and more blatant hell, the fifth and final part's title, "Ectobius Rex" is just "Cockroach King" in latin

[@darkoss551]

@@Vee_Sheep Yes I know, there's a LOT of references to The Mountain (cockroach king in particular) and Vector. I mean, the second part start with "Greed and Guile".

You know what? You might be right. I wanted to say Visions or Crystallized but I think this beats both by a bit

[@Chris_Stanley007]

Great upload, thanks.

[@artimmenersilvers7841]

The riff at 0:33 sounds very familiar but I can’t place it. I want to say it’s dream theater or LTE. Anybody else catch it?
