Invent Animate - The Sun Sleeps, As If It Never Was [Official Music Video]

[@jacobvass3632]

Upsets me metal has such a stigma around it that a lot of people won’t get to experience art like this.

[@Justin-nq6kf]

Its intentional by the mainstream to demonize metal as being satanic so people wont give it the time of day. In reality pop and mainstream shit is the satanic shit.

[@ThatShitGood]

If they get over the cringy corny stuff like hair metal and numetal, then they’ll find gems like this, metalcore is a miracle

[@metalhead3]

Metal is beautiful ❤️. Don't let people's ignorance ruin it for you.

I hope you followed through with this feeling man. No need to feel numb when life has so beauty in it amidst the pain. The song is a perfect representation of that 💙

I know this is a late reply but you should check out some christian metal! I don't mean to push religion on you, it is your choice to follow any given path. However, it is nice to get away from the constant bombardment of nihilism that fills the lyrics of most metal songs. It's just a suggestion as the lyrics can be very uplifting, hope you're doing well with your struggles.

“As If It Never Was” makes me feel such deep longing and sadness as I listen. Makes me have a deep, painful cry… Because my husband and I got shunned by my religious family, July 2021. We left the religion they’re apart of, and spoke up about the things they were hiding. They didn’t like that, so they shunned us. It’s been almost a year, and the pain is still as raw as it was the day it happened. The grief is immense. The actual instrumentation of the song is what helped make me emotional in the first place…. You guys as a band have never failed. I love you guys so much.

[@vazzydazzy]

Wow, what an awful thing to go through. Hope you and your husband are doing well 🤘🤘

[@Tspadefilms]

Я просмотрел эту работу невероятное количество раз. Мне всё равно, что этот комментарий никто не прочитает и он так и останется без ответа, но я должен высказаться: Давно знаю эту группу и получаю лютое удовольствие от прослушивания и просмотра. Знал, что ребята когда-нибудь сотворят нечто невероятное и как мне кажется это та самая работа. Объясню почему так думаю: Я загипнотизирован кадрами и музыкой, это просто невероятно! Каждый раз, как по новой, хотя знаю каждый кадр наизусть. Понятия не имею сколько было в это вложено и кто автор клипа, но то, что это для меня лютый референс по всем показателям -- это истина. Я солидарен с каждым кадром, разумеется музыкой и актёрами, которые, как мне кажется выполнили свою работу на все 100%. То, что из меня смогли вытащить эти эмоции и каждый раз Invent Animate это делают... иногда не понимаю как, но это правда и главное, что мне это нравится. Чувствую всеми фибрами тела, что с ними резонирую. Я готов ещё просмотреть 10 млн. раз. Не останавливайтесь, невероятный потенциал.

This will definitely be in my end of year list as a all time top song, as an EP there is no way its going to be beaten.

This band was one of the things that shaped me to who I am today with Everchanger/Stillworld. Greyview did take a bit of getting used to, but it always felt familiar and it grew with time to be another solid release and the next evolution of this band. This release brings me back to the Everchanger/Stillworld days while still being new, and with Marcus really shining through here for me. Cannot wait to see what's next with what is a seriously well deserved signing to UNFD. Oh, and Keaton is genuinely one of the most underrated guitarist's in this metalcore scene.

When he said “because love is not enough for me” I don’t think he meant it in the traditional sense. Like in the terms of I love you but that’s not enough for me to stay. I think he spun it in a way where he feels undeserving or undesirable in the eyes of the other person basically throwing out that statement “I guess love is not enough for me”

[@preston2636]

I think this whole ep is about a relationship he had with some body who lost themselves to addiction. maybe what he meant is love isn't enough for him to stay and watch her destroy herself. that or his love wasn't enough to keep his significant other happy enough to stay clean. which is more likely and a very painful experience. this ep hits home for me in a major way

THE SUN SLEEPS [00:00] [Intro] The shattered soul in a lifetime of regret Decay, we enter the blight [Verse 1] Speak to me as if I'm all that's left A broken soul in the wasteland The promise that you seek An act of kindness to sever the silence once and for all Exonerate me (Exonerate me) For every promise that I make [Chorus] How do you sleep at night With a war inside you? How does it feel to die Knowing I've forgotten you? [Verse 2] I strivе to heal what's hollow But every brеath will stay the same The simple forms, the complicated Erratically in vain Bound to swallow the bliss just to spit out the pain Naively thinking resentment turns to dust For every promise that I make [Chorus] How do you sleep at night With a war inside you? How does it feel to die Knowing I've forgotten you? [Bridge] The shattered soul in a lifetime of regret Decay, we enter the blight Can I forget my flesh and blood? Yet I have abandoned you No more tears I belong to another [Outro] How do you sleep at night? How does it feel to die Knowing I've forgotten you? Speak to me as if I'm all that's left Speak to me A broken soul in the wasteland ------------------------------------------------------------- AS IF IT NEVER WAS [5:38] [Verse 1] Runaway, are you so fragile? Fix the things you always break Can you be on your own? I let you be alone Stay inside this mess you made Runaway [Chorus] I can't make Make you change You can be alone Left all on your own Runaway [Verse 2] I'm afraid That if I take my eyes off you for just a second You'll find a way to be lonely And I'll try to believe But it hurts to keep you safe You give me no faith Because love is not enough for me [Breakdown] Decision's free You found a way to be lonely But it hurts The shivering touch of affection I was waiting for a moment When you would call my name Come back to me (Come back to me) But the moment never came The weight of faith never fell on me [Bridge] I can't make Make you change You can be alone Runaway [Chorus] I can't make Make you change You can be alone Left all on your own Runaway [Pre-Breakdown] You press on with a life to end Seize to exist within You want to be free [Breakdown] (You want to be free) Fear in the eyes of your family Loss in the eyes of a lover (You give me no faith) Silence

[@MinecraftVFortnite]

the final boss of metalcore

[@logrady98]

This band is top-tier metal. Visuals are outstanding, along with the release of these tracks. Haven't stopped listening since

[@VeinsFX]

This genuinely gave me goosebumps. What an amazing idea to record the one video for all 3 songs, turned out amazing This EP is just further proving how much of a fucking amazing band invent animate are. They've been underrated from the start and deserve the recognition for being one of the top bands in the scene. The instrumentation was absolutely perfect, vocals and lyrics are top notch as always. You literally cannot point one bad thing out about this band. So proud to be a fan and can't put into words how much I love their music, so excited to see you guys finally in November

[@GussyOSRS]

I don't even know what this is at 1:26 riff/leads/melody I don't know but it's by far my favourite guitar work of 2021. It instantly made me smile with pure enjoyment. Beautiful.

[@pantonime]

it's just a fucking masterpiece

[@kristopherray]

Most Underrated band possibly ever, so much depth, emotion and restraint in this album, cant wait for more.

[@ELEVATEOficial]

This band is in another whole level

[@rojadesign]

One of the best releases in metal this year.

[@gabrielvalentine4508]

I already got a headache from headbanging, and I'm not even quarter through. And I'm listening to it not for the first time Sensual as well
