The basswork on this album is incredible

The transformation is complete!

You're damn right... but they need another now. It's been 4 years.

JFAC have REALLY surprised me with this album this year. Hats off to these boys, one of the best of the year.

[@heilZu77]

the best song with a distinctive drum beat

[@sunborne9385]

This band hyped up big time. Love this album.

[@cliffordduffey2164]

Far & away the BEST COMMERCIAL I've ever seen for anything. Before I even realize it was a scientifically designed marketing ploy, I was sold! Plus the music is next level! JFAC & co. are really ON POINT these days. Grand slam release!

[@yungcrisisactor]

The first time i heard this song, that short riff and that little noodly run at 2:47 made me scream "FUUUCKKK DUDE" lmao its soooo good

[@MetalkidsFr]

excellent!

[@whatxanswer]

Word: Pit Jonny: PYAAAAOW

[@seagains2631]

That’s what makes Jonny, well, Jonny. And I don’t want it any other way.

[@slamfam7621]

very heavy and brutal death metal!

This is the only lyric video i have ever actually watched and enjoyed

Scott Rudd Film rules, man. So is Split Mask Media. 👍🎸🎸🎸🎸

[@bryanzamarripa4245]

Lol he must of been drunk as fuck writing these lyrics btw song definitely needs more cowbells

[@TheYuckySnail]

When i first heard this i was expecting the old style and was disappointed. But now that im actually listening to it i think i chamged my mind. This song was pretty sweet

[@seneca4134]

"It's comical in retrospect" "I used to enjoy this" "This levitating notion of escape"

[@thefilmeffect6089]

Is this song about a bad trip?

[@Ndcontreras]

Sick

[@matthewleonard1558]

My band

[@bigcat47]

Fuck yeah!

[@dustinjoseph7106]

It is so funny to me how so many people think this band is Satanic. Look up what Satanism is all about and you'll all understand what's up. I only say that because I read so many comments on that shit. Any who... killer song!!!

[@SantiagoRebella]

awww yea

[@KY1KRR]

The lyric book says the first line is "hallucogenic contemplations have become my finest friend" but that's not the first line?

[@fredbourgeteau3482]

🤘🎸🔥⚔️😈🎸🔥

[@yunikohh]

This song is literally about being encircled by mirrors then getting punched in the face so hard you get dementia by a mirror version of yourself, then you start to see hallucinations. Like holy shit that's insane

[@DualHelix5]

I never liked them before, but I'm actually digging this album. It's got some progressive elements without being too damn wankey.

[@balrogofmorgoth2653]

there is no point in reading lyrics as he screams as he pleases, in some parts he's screaming in a completely invented language that strangely resembles english and I'm down with it like 101% to all complaining about the lyrics - just cuz you can't understand the meaning, doesn't mean you're right. lyrics are interesting and deep-layered, it's nothing something simpletons and those looking for gore aka cannibal corpse bs would understand.

[@XxREDFIRE06xX]

First off, I love JFAC so don't assume i'm a troll. However, I really don't understand this band's obsession with satanic imagery when their lyrics have seemingly nothing to do with satanism (unless i'm missing something). Can someone explain this?

[@JFordAnimation]

Well if they sung about Jesus they'd be heavy version of For Today.

[@bobidiga1]

Omnipresent .Perception toplel

[@bikerluke182]

They have the ram's head as their mascot but apart from that I don't really see many other examples of satanic imagery. The logo in the background of this video is taken from the album cover with an ice/water goddess being summoned. That's much more final fantasy/skyrim type stuff than anything satanic. Everything else from doom, ruination and demonocracy all just seem to have the ram's head on top of political objects like the american/korean flag, lawyer in a suit and statue of liberty. Davey said in an interview that he likes to sing about the "real evil" in the world. I think the typically evil (you might say satanic) images on top of regular day things reflects the view that their are worse things happening right now in this world than in any occult fantasy most bands sing about.

[@Mr.Skeleton.]

I don't think they are going for a satanic look. I'm a Christian and JFAC is one of my favorite bands. I think their first record with the suited cow skull was in reference to their name job for a cowboy. But then they ran with the horned animal imagery just as their personal slogan. Haha idk I could be way off.

[@dchmtl1]

bitter bite I don't see it as a cow head. It is a Cape Buffalo, which is a real bad ass in Africa. Even a lion won't fuck with one of them. The down turned horns and the flat part top middle says it all.

[@SimPorque]

heavy shit

[@williamthomas1871]

I am also a Jfac fan, i dont mind the song.... but.. they could have done something like the ruination video and the tarnished gluttony video.

[@cliffordduffey2164]

man, i am just so terribly sorry that the bulk of "commentators" on this song are simpletons, haters, or just so self absorbed with their negativity that they believe their comments or opinions matter. your judgment of the body of work that these young men created borders on blaspheme. why a lyric video? honestly?!? at least you could've made a valid alternative. if i come off as ignorant then please enlighten me about satanism. but first i implore you to point out exactly which of these images are thus. the skull of a bg horn sheep? why that's found in native american motifs as well as miner heritage. or maybe it was the "Spirograph" shapes in the background. these artist want nothing more than to have even a very few people "get it". have a heart & a brain. oh, & the song is about self discovery & reflection, an often painful & ugly task for those of us who want to grow or change. admit to yourself who you REALLY are & maybe you'll stop airing such retoric about other human beings who simply want to entertain others.

[@JobForAMaxboy]

Jonny wrote some amazing lyrics on Ruination...

[@victorstrange666]

JFAC New sound is fucking sick \m/

[@ProdByClockwerk]

1:00 = White Job For A Chapel?

[@SacredReach0]

glasssOFOJ they are death metal now not deathcore

[@ProdByClockwerk]

The Legend Well my comment flew over your head. I'm saying the one part @ 1:00 sounds like White Chapel.

[@DL-ux3hi]

sounds like they have been listening to allot gorod...

[@UndeadBed]

What? Is this what Gorod sounds like on A Perfect Absolution? I listen to all their music up to Transcendence, and I don't see the comparison.

[@UndeadBed]

Sahil Londhe I see now, Programmers of the Decline is my favorite from them, so I wasn't thinking of Neurotripsticks.

[@UndeadBed]

SHUT UP YOU GUYS JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND! I don't either :(

[@johndoe-kz5hq]

can anyone answer this question for me? WHY ON EARTH DID MR. RICE LEAVE JOB FOR A COWBOY? Their best album to me is their 2005 release or "Doom" and the song "knee deep" is just, especially if I'm in my car, let hell loose, and I just floor it! that song is just the BALLS OF ALL BALS! SO, to the question at hand, can anyone tell me why he left? Please any scrap, of good information, aka, no "TROLL" ACTION NEEDED.

[@CorridorOfChameleons94]

john doe rice never did drums for the doom ep. Eilliot Sellers drummed on that ep and John came back to the band.

[@CorySmart]

Obviously this song is about drug addiction, right?

[@gullattehunter9340]

I thought it was about using a scrying.

[@Super_Camel]

Why not just a normal video or maybe a cartoon?Whats with this trend of lyric videos?

[@bob2theboney]

i have no like for this singer's style. band is good musically

[@Booth9237]

Yea, I'm glad they have stepped up their musicianship on this album, some of the songs are beautiful if you can say that about metal lol his lyrical pronunciation has always been shit.

[@fredforu7558]

666 likes! lol xD

[@mmmTheMuffinMan]

I'm a fan of JFAC, but really, the lyrics leave a lot to be desired. The song seems to be about a bunch of random shit and metaphors that aren't held together by any coherent structure.

[@mjr2470]

love the music and the tones..... no need for lyrics for me. just growl in different pitches and it sounds great, I just came for djent anyways

[@bob2theboney]

ya who ever told u this is or ever was a djent band is wrong and you'd be doing yourself a favor and telling them they are stupid and to go away.

[@odinsraven2616]

Can't help it; its "deep seated", not "seeded".

[@danjosco]

Great song. Just don't understand why you do vocals you cannot perform live ( I have seen them recently )

[@ifirsttoo9721]

escarificación ....

[@declaration14]

I know it's screaming and all, but when you can't tell which words are which in a lyrics video, like, work on the pronunciation dude.

[@Sanctimonious666]

Dude. .. right?? Lol

[@mclovin1762]

Are you serious dude? They're so easy to understand even without the lyrics on the screen.

[@AnnihalationonaStick]

i kinda feel ya but, idk with his voice i feel like it doesnt matter because it's so sick anyway. Imo it might even take away a little bit of the monstrosity in his voice if he were to enunciate more completely. Trust me, i love when i hear brutal lows and can still pick out what the vocalist is saying but in death metal i don't necessarily expect it.

[@declaration14]

yeah that's fair. Sure I'm a big Obituary fan and he didn't even write definite lyrics in the beginning because he was so hard to understand anyway

[@bob2theboney]

Christian Sundt instead ov sounding brutal he just sounds like shit. even if he did care bout lyrics he'd still sound like shit.

[@megagreatgodlywhiteshark2929]

Job 4 ya dead cowboy,that should be their newer name lol jk

[@ivansierra4528]

First! Lml

[@wubben12]

This is the worst pronunciation I've ever heard out of a metal song

[@CrNgLrD]

thinking the same thing. it bugs the shit out of me

[@rexviperfan]

5rotflol Eh, he modifies the pronunciation to make the song sound better, what's wrong in that?

[@CrNgLrD]

hercludes personally it i don't like that he doesn't pronounce some words even remotely close to how they are. most other words he says are pretty clear so its just annoying to me. but hey its just my opinion. that doesn't mean you should stop liking them because of my nit picking

[@ninnghhizziddha]

You just have bad taste. It's okay to be ignorant about vocal stylings, but it does make your opinion someone invalid

[@WookieeTheWhite]

Dat mispronunciation.

[@malcolmrff]

Alex Turner I heard it once I saw the lyric

[@ninnghhizziddha]

Alex Turner it's not mispronouncing, he over and under emphasizes certain vowel elements. It's interesting

[@fatheremmons85]

Music side of it is pretty good. The vocals and lyrics......not so much.

[@scaryfaced1]

Cool music, but the pronunciation of the lyrics feels like the singer has a speech impediment.

[@brynlansdown5881]

This album is great, but the lyrics are a trainwreck

[@mikehunt4797]

Meh liked older shit better

[@jonnymak1079]

Lol ok... These guys are Definitely good musicians...I've heard 1 or 2 heavier songs i acually liked "im picky as FUUUUUCK." i likte the lyrics and msgs...again great playing on the band's part...lol but this here...IS SOME TRENDY CHEESY ASS SHIT." LOL seriously... Also Fuck an arpegio sweep ...

[@PaziThai556]

Weak.

[@despised0395]

seriously this band should change name.....notting to do with the 2 first albums.....i dont like this band anymore old jfc was better :P

[@B33fJerky123]

their old shit is nowhere near as fucking good as this

[@DualHelix5]

Dude, fuck their old albums straight up the fucking ass. This album fucking rips

[@dexterj5615]

Steevens B_Throwdown this comment made me laugh years later, you sir have zero ear for talent. TBH their first two albums were "starter metal", this is highly technical and progressive. Most of us have been fucking stoked to see bands we grew up with growing and maturing with our musical tastes

[@philtheewun]

Doom was absolute shit. They dropped that deathcore bullshit sound and became great.

[@ninnghhizziddha]

Steevens B_Throwdown that just proves you have shit taste

[@Local.Metalhead]

Those vocals though....... 👎👎👎👎
