Karnivool - Fear of the Sky

[@adam872]

The guitars under the lyric "Star blind at the Sun..." are absolutely all-time. Big ringing, gnarly arpeggiated chords FTW. It's both beautiful and nasty at the same time.

[@mills260]

So goooooood man

[@StrayLion]

I just got a Warwick Thumb NT 5, and after playing this for so long on my Streamer 5, I can honestly say it's night and day. It feels so much more powerful on the Thumb.

[@fedecamusso]

awesome song! wonderful...greetings and hugs from argentina!!

[@SCARDS22]

ABSOLUTE CLASSIC!!

[@NorthGaReptile]

Rock, metal, progressive metal, and this type of music in general is where the real talent is. Don't listen to them and keep on rocking!

[@riceboy287]

Dude they killin this rhythmn

[@jasonquintanilla640]

In your own state of mind All you fear now is won a conscious world will spin you in and out of time Lend your breath to broken sail Hands up in my blunted nail Rolling water, suck her free Surely I can make you feel.. What I'm feeling, falling in Comfort bleeds a swollen mend In the secrecy that is to lie Knowing in failure, will I forge the wrong sound? Soon I see what they mean Living this fallacy Promised heaven, I concede. Dead, what I'm feeling, falling in Comfort bleeds a swollen mend In the secrecy that is to lie Stare blind at the sun, feel the warmth in your eyes With you in mind, with you in time Stare blind at the sun, feel the warmth in your head Dead, what I'm feeling, falling in Comfort bleeds a swollen mend In the secrecy that it's to lie That is to lie Stare blind at the sun, feel the warmth in your eyes With you in mind, with you in time Stare blind at the sun, feel the warmth in your head Stare blind at the sun, feel the warmth in your eyes With you in mind, with you in time Stare blind at the sun, feel the warmth in your head Stare blind at the sun, feel the warmth in your eyes With you in mind, yeah with you in time Stare blind at the sun, feel the warmth in your head

Conscious web*

[@samgawith5338]

Half these lyrics are wrong

[@blizalot]

i honestly cannot believe people havent checked this kind of music out more often, especially karnivool. they are better then honestly anything on the radio or any pop music shit. and im 17, it just seems so hopeless when you see how people are listening to mindless hip hop...i just feel somehow we need to save music. otherwise these next generations wont have this to listen to and they wont know the emotion or the intelligence behind it. somehow we have to save music,,

[@JackBradley07]

Im 17 now and feel the same way you did hah... i wonder if you still have the same opinion?

[@rihno18]

He is such a brilliant singer!

[@primordial.sounds]

It's got 4+ minutes of silence at the end.

[@einsteintechn9ne1]

I typed in TesseracT in pandora and discovered this...great band great song great everything. thanks for uploading this man. Gotta love djent/groove metal

[@andreasomenzi5194]

ascoltati dopo 12 anni... roba sublime, assolutamente innovativi ma radicati nell'anima PROG. Suono e tecnica che supera il maestro ( TOOL ) 😋

[@jocorocket]

they are a great original band period. very fresh!

[@joaoralves7201]

Inacreditável a quantidade de pessoas que escutam lixo ao invés de talentos absurdamente fodas como estes!!

[@inMYtimeOFneed92]

what the hell is wrong with all the people saying Karnivool is like "this" or "that" band? they just have their own style and if you cant get that, well, u got a big problem!

[@souperman1994]

WHAT!? why does this have hardly any views! ITS AWESOME!

[@soiluberalles]

Lifelike is ended with a scream, a deep one, and thats perfect, screams are good - when placed properly :)

[@GrapeFlavoredAntifreeze]

Not placed properly, performed properly. Look at black water park by Opeth. Not one word of clean vocals and it’s one of the greatest vocal performances in metal

[@lazbogi]

Amazing song!! Thanks for the upload.

[@STALK3RZD]

i downloaded album and i must say there a few great songs :D

[@TheDobligator]

Good idea of you to leave all that extra time at the end for applause.

[@viljuska229]

I wonder what would happen if you started uploading DT songs...:D Would we get like an hour of silence or something...xD

[@portto]

Their music is awesome just the way it is, but to be honest I think that experimenting with fair to midland or katatonia like background screams/growls wouldn't be bad at all on some songs.

[@quenteqmampff8204]

I used to skip over this song, now i skip to it

[@Teskue]

Awesome band!

[@TheFonzLovesMusic]

Cause not a lot of people appreciate good music anymore

[@PriestofGethsemane]

It's not a matter of what's better. But this group of artists obviously feels that these are the right vocals for it. Sooo....I think it's perfect the way it is. (A matter of taste, right?)

[@TheDobligator]

Respectable.

[@mr.social4360]

Damn, those tempos are so hard to remember and literally drum it.. it's just don't connected to the standards of our brain thoughts

[@TheStimplefiend]

nice upload, sick quality.

[@radiantdrake]

definitely have alot of rhythm/grooves going on in this album, i can see why it would be put in with a "djent" pandora station

[@different2261]

Now, this is Post Prog Rock asf !!

[@SchizoidPersonoid]

Stare blind at the sun Feel the warmth in your eyes With you in mind With you in ti-em Stare blind at the sun Feel the warmth in your heya-ee-ay-ad

[@iamrichlol]

definitely!

[@jomobro]

@MrDerp24 I agree with you unanimously, but there's an exception - Scarabs.

[@Will-ox4vj]

For a long time I actually thought the lyrics were "Stare back at the sun, feel the warmth in your eyes. We feel it burn, we feel it dying", but turns out it's actually "Stare blind at the sun, feel the warmth in your eyes. With you in mind, with you in time". Meh, I like my version better.

[@StiTchEvidence]

Tad late, but...let's be brutally honest. The whole "prog/djent" scene featuring these folks, Tesseract, Periphery....have shit lyrics steeped in pretentiousness. Good thing the music is better and the vocals blend in as an instrument.

[@JurgenBlitz]

While you are not exactly wrong, I don´t think it´s exclusive to the djent scene. I mean, if I got a dollar for every time a tharsh/death band had sung a line like "feel my righteous vengeance" or stuff like that, I could buy KZbin. Every scene has its own vices and recurring themes, it´s just that djent tends to go to existencialism. But I´d take that over "murder and blood because reasons" any time.

[@OMGWTFBBQ1090]

I'm fairly sure I've read a few times Karnivool don't recommend reading into the lyrics, so your approach of viewing them as an instrument adding a bit more colour to the music is probably how they intend.

[@zed-xj1tx]

I have trouble labeling this song or album as djent

[@abhishekpraharaj4481]

some of their songs have lovely lyrics bro!i dont think they intend people to just skip masterpieces like all i know and COTE

[@stylis666]

Semantics are boring. A useful tool. Nothing more. If it moves the soul, it moves the soul. The guy loves it. Let's leave it at that.

[@Musikloverchick]

@souperman1994 I agree!

[@chamberofficialtv]

So Nice :)

[@Fleshy91]

People keep saying they sound like tool which is nonsense. But this song sounds kinda like deftones and a little bit of incubus.

[@DaryoGoinden]

Karnivool is Karnivool. Learn not to compare, mate. Peace.

[@Fleshy91]

@@DaryoGoinden 🙄 K… I guess we can just pretend that musicians don’t let their influences rub off on their songwriting. Of course they have a great original sound. I was mostly referring to guitar tones in this particular song. Learn not to make demands of people speaking their minds. 🫤

[@DaryoGoinden]

@@Fleshy91 You're totally right. Learn not to make demands of me speaking my mind. Peace my brother 🤘🤘🤘

[@kudblythe]

Thomas Haake is that you?

[@mjktool1069]

thomas haake wishes.

[@constantinepantas1603]

MJKTool Lols...

[@jwcorcoran9838]

I can't believe it's Drew drumming - he's an insane talent

[@lessevolvedman]

fuck dude we would have a rocking session together kicking furniture over rocking out. . fucking solid playlist

[@jahangirhashmi1092]

🖤♾️🖤

[@JTbassist09]

@souperman1994 only uploaded it a month ago, and its been out 6 years

[@HandsOfCinderblock]

I know the verse is 5/4 time, but I can't tell what time signature the intro is in.

[@ledzep1994]

It's 4/4… but with groups of 5 sixteenth !

[@HandsOfCinderblock]

ledzep1994 Good lord. That's no fair!

[@krzychogie]

The intro is in 5 times 3 + one 4, which is 19/4 altogether, but it would be a bit overcomplicated to put it this way. It's definitely 6 times 3 with one extra quarternote at the very end.

[@mjktool1069]

Now listen to A.M War and try to count it haha. took me a few times.

[@czerviik]

It's in 13/8 played with pentuplets on the ride cymbal. :-)

[@sidmantri_]

the mp3 file that i have is 5-odd mins..why is this video 9 mins!? :O

[@TheKekelol]

I was the dude who sung the lyrics wrong on Triple J. If this means something to you I regret nothing.

[@duskomilijevic9174]

How do you count this?

[@kacperdobrowolski156]

anybody figured out the high pitched notes from the last chorus?

[@MikeProgBass]

3:00 YEH PLAY DAHT RIDE

[@excelisinsane]

true, but they have referenced them as an influence before.

[@DeadlyNinjaDrummer]

@lokeynot You say that just because it is a syncopated rhythm. It's not like meshuggah invented that.

[@TheDobligator]

@OFSWAG92 Now zere are TWO!

[@JTbassist09]

@HellScream1231 i have no idea, should i re upload it?

[@souperman1994]

@JTbassist09 Its still needs more views lol

[@Daxilen]

i'd love to hear screaming over this though :) matter of taste so don't be like "this" is better than "that".

[@doomhand98]

potatoe!

[@rickroller2000]

I disagree man, have you heard of TesseracT? The rough vocals in their songs make it so much better and instrumentally, sound a lot like karnivool

[@mrderp2472]

@devilsway100 Screaming would completely ruin this song and all their songs. This isn't a bad about screams, it's always going to be a melodic voice

[@BreanMate]

@datswotimtknbout Screaming =/= Mainstream recognition.

[@shugularity]

Yeah and the drum beat sounds a bit Meshuggah like.

[@That_many_watts]

maybe, some might be cool, just a little

[@TheDobligator]

@devilsway100 Because screaming definitely sounds better than singing. Because Karnivool really needs to lose one of their best instruments.

[@niteshade111]

i dont get. im 12, i love rock, metal progressive, etc. all my friends say im retarded cause i dont like crap, i mean rap.

[@Popabuddy1]

MusicManiac don't hate them just because they don't understand your tastes, and don't be the hypocrite that shits on their music as well, just be the guy that doesn't give a shit

[@eucabusas]

much like texture's singularity

[@That_many_watts]

lol you got 69 likes!!!!!

[@iamrichlol]

they aren't djent.

[@contortionistfan9706]

those are not your friends lol
