Invent Animate - Luna (ft. Ben English {OG Vox} 9-24-23 @ Warehouse Live Houston, TX)

[@ysdg968]

Brooo I wanna hear Ben in the studio again with Invent at least on a feature

[@5centbank]

Yes!!!

[@BoyoArdee]

That'd be cool like the way Marcus featured on one of Avianas songs.

[@shhsjfkf2832]

I think most of us who started listening to them since 2010 we want to get him back, those lows man... they fitted perfect with instrumental my g-d

[@EthanRadell]

​@@shhsjfkf2832eh, I prefer Marcus for literally everything else besides lows though, ben just has him beat. Ben reminds me of old Contortionist(John Carpenter) big time. But Marcus' lows arent terrible imo i also just don't think the stuff they make now really needs gutterals anymore, I like the panic scream thing they got going on. It's the best toss up from stuff like vildijharta and HLB but still hits the thall spot. They have an actual unique sound to roll with now rather than a hodge podge of a bunch of different sounds, which isn't bad btw I love old IA I just think in order to stay alive it was necessary and the old stuff isn't ever going away. To second the other comment, a Ben feature would go SO HARD. I like his live screams now way more than what's recorded on old IA, the mid screams just kinda don't do it for me the way Marcus or a lot of other peoples do, but they work and I still love the albums just he seems way better now.

[@shhsjfkf2832]

Ben does highs and singing too, he was their original vox, and I dont doubt if he didnt left Invent he will had improved his singing, also he appeared in their best and first two albums they wrote, new ones are instrumental bangers but I prefer a little more the old ones, even the mix @@EthanRadell

[@midnighthymn]

First Adrian and now Ben. 2023 has been a great year for metal so far.

[@alexs9528]

Right … When both Marcus’s took over the bands Northlane effect took place . Nothing will sound like singularity or StillWorld ever again .

[@midnighthymn]

@@alexs9528 Facts

[@8JFJK8]

⁠@@alexs9528 I like Northlane and Invents newer stuff. But yeah.. when you change things they dont sound the same.. thats what change is lol.

[@Zaksporebrainiac]

@@8JFJK8 I mean more changed than the vocalists, I love both eras for both bands though.

[@victoream13]

Now we just need Garrison Lee from Erra and my life will be complete.

[@thejam1212]

My jaw dropped when I heard about this. Luna, Celestial Floods & White Wolf are classics and aren't talked about enough. Gave me chills hearing Ben's voice sound so good

[@midnighthymn]

This was truly an iconic moment man

[@SuicideSeason4545]

Some guy spoiled the surprise for us in the crowd smh, but yeah it was fucking surreal seeing Ben and Marcus live I equally love both of those guys. Most of the band with the exception of Marcus grew up going to that venue

[@sirdo946]

White Wolf just hits different man

[@Supremeburritogaming]

HE SOUNDS SO FUCKING GOOD

[@midnighthymn]

You can tell Ben was almost nervous/overwhelmed at first, but at 01:31 it's like that old Ben came out in full force.

[@midnighthymn]

His lows are unbelievable

[@RachelleReacts]

I AM IN SHAMBLES

[@Cwolf93]

fighting back tears the whole time tbh

[@nafiz5609]

Luna is easily top 5 IA ever

[@radiosports1]

You're only speaking facts lol

[@Nornfang]

Ehhhhh not anymore. Still great track

[@midnighthymn]

@@NornfangHard disagree. It’s top 5.

[@Nornfang]

@@midnighthymn bruh there’s like 5+ tracks on the new album alone that put Luna to bed

[@midnighthymn]

@@Nornfang What are your top 10 invent songs bro? Then I’ll give you mine

[@thedrixperspective]

Ben's lows and harsh vocals still give me absolute chills. So glad he got to be on that stage performing to a packed crowd.

[@SuicideSeason4545]

It was a very special show indeed, most of the members grew up going to shows in this venue :) It’s why Ben was able to attend he lives in the area. Nothing was sicker than seeing Ben enter from the backstage area and being at the front

[@thedrixperspective]

@@SuicideSeason4545 Yeah I am from the area and live here as well, just was out of town for work that weekend which sucked!

[@joshfloyd]

Facts! His vocals are so raw. You can tell there is real pain behind them.

[@Delicroix]

I still follow Ben on Insta and love seeing him happy and living the life he wants... but I miss that guy so much and hold Everchanger/Stillworld very dear in my heart. This isn't even rose-colored glasses from the video: every time I listen to IA, new or old, I get in my feels wishing he wanted to keep at it.

[@squattingslav]

Not gonna lie, I still prefer Ben over Marcus

[@otherworldlycreation895]

@@squattingslav im sure lots of people do too, but he did say hes coming back to music this year finally

[@alexndrtrash]

@@otherworldlycreation895 fuck it get em both in the band and duet the screams

[@Harpy-24]

Ben on Stillworld, basically the best flippen album around in that specific era. Lyrics, vox, music. Just perfect and so DEEEEEEP.

[@Core_Crusaders]

Them Re-recording this with both of them on vocals would be a dream come true.

So glad I was there to witness this

[@jayquinox5536]

At first I was so scared when Ben left and Marcus became the new vocalist.. but I’ve fallen more in love with invent since then and the band is perfect the way it is. But I’ll never forget Ben, a true legend.

[@midnighthymn]

Stillworld is still their best album!!

Yes

I mean.. this is Everchanger. But you’re not wrong lol

So happy we have Invent Animate!!!!!!

[@kasmeer9676]

This is such an important piece of metalcore lore, thank you for recording it and posting it

[@alexs9528]

That’s what I’ve been telling them for long time . For Ben to do a Feature with IA . My life would be complete

[@lucaswright6548]

I was fortunate enough to play a show on the same bill as I/A like a decade ago and I was a fan then... But after attending this show in person, I am a fanboy. These dudes transcended last night and they deserve every single bit of success coming their way.

[@Clouds_153]

atl 2017 carry the flame tour. I saw Ben in person I was so hyped then he quit the band shortly after :(

[@Jevbev_]

Luna is IA best song … then void surfacing & can’t forget a hidden gem ( NOVA )

[@siegedoyle]

Stillworld is still their best album imo.

[@Nornfang]

Even though I think the Marcus era of Invent is superior, Ben’s lows still kick ass

[@ActNasty5]

Best lows in the game

[@offthecufff]

this crowd fucking sucks why is everyone so boring now holy shit isn't this in their home state?

[@siegedoyle]

Houston shows suck unless it's on the weekends I feel like. Or the scene is just dying here, sadly. A lot of bands skipping over houstin recently, which is sad.

[@gavinc6366]

That kick is so clunky sounding 😅

[@gemo_rak6706]

their guitarist speaks Russian!!!!???? I thought it was his accent!

This band are so good but the stage presence is so weak here
