Karnivool-Illumine

[@rqneo5361]

The chorus is particularly wonderful

[@2WinGs2]

2014, almost 2015. Still thinking this album has the best production I've ever come across.

[@Dahvievanity4ever]

It's now 2016 and I still agree with you.

[@GhANeC]

More than Asymmetry?

[@2WinGs2]

ghoawaynetcabo In my humble opinion... absolutely.

[@saripallisreekar4275]

2017 man! Can't get it off still! xD

[@spiderbumjones867]

+saripalli sreekar 2017 just been introduced to this band. listened to the album every day!

[@FrostBloodV]

I'm so deeply in love with this song

[@keepwalkin1010]

I didn't really give this as much credit as other tracks on Sound Awake for a long while but then it grew and grew and grew into this huge creature of brilliance and meaning. I love the theme of shrugging off your restrictions and achieving an open mind. I also love how Karnivool have the balls to sing so openly about questioning religion and addressing the 'fear'. It was clever to put this song after The Caudal Lure on the album, seeing as its meaning runs parallel to that of Illumine.

[@Psychograce93]

Very astute observation, and I totally agree with your sentiment. I didn't ''get'' the song first few times, but it is just as powerful, if not more so than the others on the record!

[@NotFilly]

this song still making my ears bleed of joy in 2022

[@drjohndorianwins]

Servant to the sun, we are beings, we become as one.

[@Handplottedblackhole]

This song is some next level shit.

[@kennethkiwistone]

man the the lyrics the way they play wow i cant even describe it!

[@Ozblu3y]

i never used to like this song for some reason but now... when i listen to it... strange... its growing on me...

[@Voliveira96]

O baixo de Jon Stockman e a bateria de Steve Judd nessa música são fora desse mundo. Uma das minhas favoritas do álbum.

[@zeroangelmk1]

I love the intro to this song. It's like a wall of calming white noise and freqencies massaging my brain. I also like the fact that it feels a bit like shoegaze (e.g. swervedriver) with a darker, slightly more technical sound to it, and better lyrics.

[@JoeOldest]

One of my favorites from the new album.

[@GhANeC]

4:53 I wish from here on it would keep going for at least another minute more!

[@TheDobligator]

Just started listening to this band. I'm buying this album next chance I get.

[@Ozblu3y]

kinda makes me sad when i see good bands not get out there, i'm just... so glad karnivool got out. really, i love seeing them on youtube, and when i get old nuff imma go to a pub and see them :)

[@Spag419]

It's been 10 years, should be good to go now

[@Ozblu3y]

@@Spag419 missed out cause of covid, so sad! I'll go another time :)

[@allmypicturesofu]

@@Ozblu3y just saw them live last month. Madlads!

[@Vince02c]

Want to hear a live of this with those crazy intro they give us sometimes.

[@EggFriedSpam]

coolest intro ever

[@nitishvashishtha5168]

It's unbelievable how little attention this band has gotten. And anyone who really does like them always talks about how little attention the band gets.

[@Gabriel-oc2di]

Simply perfect

[@ds6011]

I can't choose the best song !!! All of them seem to have the same fuckin' effect!!! EVERY SONG MAKES ME JIZZ IN MY PANTS!!! FUCKING BRILLIANT!

[@GhANeC]

Fkng underrated song!

[@miraltar4273]

some parts remind me of Refused - New Noise

[@AndSalX95]

Still, it's so fucking hard to choose the best song of arguably one of the best albums of the last decade.

[@westywat84]

Yep karnivool and bird's of tokyo ,front man of two awesome bands kenny is!

[@bellohighrep]

yea this is up there

[@GhANeC]

I still don't dislike the chorus, but I still get that feeling that the freakin kickass intro to this song up to 1:27 or so was asking for (and deserved) something more unique and greater to follow through. Maybe if they started playing the chorus right away like they do on the last one... I dont know... Anyway still really like this song.

[@dantheman5075]

I disagree, i love how at 3:58 on the last chorus the drums and guitars+bass give such a clean and light sound

[@GJ22]

this album is sooooo good, looking forward too more genius

[@seifer2g]

@Tilley6969 for my taste i gotta say this has to be my favorite song of their album, but all around it is an amazing album. heard a few songs and bought it straight away.

[@jamesbarron7568]

This song is illuminasty ;)

[@VincentDeLuca2003]

Don't listen Don't even hear a sound they make, it breaks you Unspoken Words that taunt you when you listen Forgotten Words that haunt you while you're sleeping You seem afraid, don't be alarmed It's only the face of things to come Servant to the sun, we are beings, we become as one Lighting every cell, every shape we will never form And is it relevant? Our fears, our faults As foolish as it sounds So lead us on (Only one way left) Through the world of false promise It's one thing to be forgiven (Only one way left) Only you could learn how to let it go So we are Servant to the sun, let us see, we are still as one Here lie my fault I'd give up everything To see what you see And dream on Why can't we dream on? Don't listen Don't even hear a sound they make, it breaks you These words won't help To save you Servant to the sun, we are beings, we become as one Lighting every cell, every shape we will never form These words won't help To save you Servants of the sun, let us see, we are still as one You seem afraid, don't be alarmed It's only the face of things to come

[@Coryiodine]

its a shame they dont have like any videos of them doing it live

[@seean07]

Very sympathetic to this song...fan-fucking -tastic

[@iWentToNam]

No i knew when that mad bassline came in, i just think the whole thing is sick.

[@msid9999LP]

Nigga got a myspace link in his description

[@ds6011]

@UrMumsStayinOva New Day's definitely up there but the thing is...so are the rest! I'd say..all of them!!!! B)

[@michaeljacobi]

hated it the first time i listened to it, now i cant get enough

[@MrAlemannus]

you seem afraid dont be alone

[@burnbogan]

my fav is deadman fucken awesome, like it was written for me haha

[@TooMuchSascha]

@AdosXD176 maybe he's from the jersey shore

[@FasterThanYou789]

1:00 that riff is absolutely smoking

[@FretslingerAG]

To say this isnt similar to Tool is just plain ignorant. I mean high pitched bass widdlys, similar voice, odd times. However they have theyre differences, Karnivool use a bigger variety of key signatures and rely more on chord changes than guitar riffs. And its safe to say they are both awesome.

[@leaderliter]

@UrMumsStayinOva that title easily goes to medicine wears off

[@FelNoHype]

Awesome early, mid and late

[@BlackIndigenousPosse]

If this were the worst song on the album, it wouldn't much matter. Sound Awake is perfect.

[@bradsnow306]

That fucking Intro....

[@iWentToNam]

Nah, starts at 0:00.

[@carlosspiceyweener54]

@dano555666 who are the illuminati?

[@HaroldHarolds]

@leaderliter not really a song though, just like a bridge between halves of the album

[@McMeevin]

@AdosXD176 I would start at /b/

[@JTbassist09]

i think that is a too bigger call

[@crankyfy]

ILLUMINATI SONG....
