INVENT ANIMATE - Dark (Official Audio)

[@jasonthomas16]

Easily one of the best openers on any album in modern Metalcore history. Not a doubt in my mind

[@gf618]

I'm with you on this one

[@EightPenguins]

I wish I could hear this song for the first time again

[@dylanfree2218]

Every time I listen, it's like I'm listening for the first time. All about the circumstantial experience created and the memory that drives you back to it.

[@InboundsFire]

When i first found these guys i listened to this entire album for 2 weeks straight. Got me back into metal. I love their instrumenttals

[@dylanbowen8698]

i just heard this for the first time and immediately agree

[@alexs9528]

Never in million years would I think I would Pull Tears of Happiness....... I had bad thoughts about Ben English leaving & thinking you guys wouldn’t be the same after stillworld . But I’m in good Hands with Marcus now . Thank you for Not Giving up on Us after 3 years . YOU GUYS MADE me Pick up my Guitar Again . Thank You Invent

[@Dracula_sb]

Same bro

[@Dracula_sb]

I played along to cloud Cascade last night and I cried before the breakdown

[@EnvisionedBlindness]

Wish I felt the same... lows are so weak I just dont dig it. Doesn't fill Ben's shoes in my opinion.

[@alexs9528]

Jonathan Blind I strongly agree with you , but I feel like it could’ve been worst singer . But let’s see what this album has for Us 🙏🏼

[@EnvisionedBlindness]

@@alexs9528 riffs are still killer. Would have been fine with them going full instrumental

[@chickenguy95]

The breakdown at 2:58 feels like eternity man

[@zlatoper98]

these guys are obviously not fucking around. going straight for the crown. absolutely amazing song, so stoked for the record!

[@MikeDD]

Springcore has arrived. Part III of invents season-vibe albums

[@MikeDD]

@@ilikeheavymuzic135 they already did fall with their debut. Summer is the last piece 🙏

[@ilikeheavymuzic135]

Mike DD at least that’s what I originally got cause the nocturne lost faith video takes place in a forest in summer and that was my introduction to the band.

[@MikeDD]

@@ilikeheavymuzic135 yea I personally chose fall due to the artwork. Its leafless trees, no snow and looked chilly hahaha!!! Either way, we got 1 more season hopefully lmao

[@jesseroberts5728]

I think this falls more along the lines of Spring because of the storms in the Cloud Cascade video. Also, in this video we get dark skies, like a storm brewing. Most of the time Spring is god awful with stormy weather, especially in the West and the South(they’re from Texas, I’m from Alabama). Good rainy night music.

[@Ghost17110]

always felt like everchanger was fall and stillworld winter, this definitely feels like an intro to spring kinda vibe

[@rjart7988]

This is so deep. The shadow breakdown is inspired by Buda: “When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.” when he says he has lost his shadow, he actually lost his light. Beautifully poetic.

[@entitiessoul]

No. It is shown in The Bible multiple times.

[@brysonxd]

​@@entitiessoulstill clearly a refrence to buddhism lol

[@discoveranceband]

man they have the best atmosphere of any band i've heard shit is always on point

[@Kidcrowley]

Seriously, i can´t get enough of that ambient/spacey breakdown with the cleans in there, it's so chill yet heavy at the same time, the melodic voice and the open guitar along with those harmonics in the background just give me goosebumps, and at the same time i can bang my head to that slapping drum pattern, so simple yet the china and the power of the snare just sound cool as fuck, well played guys, well played

[@sirbonple]

just heard it for the first time just as i was reading this lmao. literally one of the best breakdowns i’ve heard. christ

[@jordan6065]

this is truly incredible. i would go as far as saying his screaming here is better than cloud cascade, and the song really does take me back to everchanger days. i’m very excited for this one.

[@danielagu6185]

Couldn't agree more mate! I definitely feel Everchanger styled vocals while guitars are more prone to Stillworld. I was worried after Ben left but I am guilty of saying that Marcus sounds way better. Still love Ben!

[@thxmpsxn]

Dude I was thinking the same thing! I was kinda nervous that they’d get too far from Everchanger, then i heard this

[@iwasBorntoBurn]

@@thxmpsxn personally miss the lows but boys got chops. will def grab a copy and catch a show when they come around!

[@pandoratypography]

Bro... these are only tracks one and two... I have no idea where this album is gonna go but I already know it's gonna be HUGE from this introduction alone.

[@z_ragnair]

starting the year, and we can say already this will be one of the best albums of 2020.

[@CameronDouma]

Coming from someone who has followed Invent Animate since the "Waves" EP. I can actually respect this new Vocalist! Pumped for this album!

[@Ruqkii]

You can barely tell there's a change of vocalist because Marcus fit in so perfectly with the band. This is the first time i don't feel i'm listening to a different band after a change in vocalist. I feared it maybe a Northlane Scenario and i'm gladly disappointed. Props to the Drummer too and lead and bassist they do the real work.

Feels like a return to Everchanger riffs. Love what Stillworld had but Everchanger will always be the goat.

[@FenneWolf]

Incredible, vocals have improved here and the instrumental is perfectly heavy and dark. The melodies have increased and created an amazing soundscape. Less beatdown dark djent breakdowns, but I think that was a purposeful move to create a more colorful composition instead of relying too much on that dark djent feel. The space between each note is breathtaking, every pause and palm mute has its own purpose, great for fans of deathcore, prog, djent, melodic hardcore, and nu-metal.

[@Honster6]

that chorus is amazing

[@ОлегЮлдашев-ю7т]

It was for sure the crowning jewel of our life cycle. and something i'll take to with me to the grave
