Is it possible to know if I'm telling a lie?

I Love This Song!!!!

[@chapelperilous9966]

@@nikkibotts6239 Every time I hear this song I think of Supernatural. Seems like a song they would play during the review of a season...

[@nikkibotts6239]

@@chapelperilous9966 It's so cool that you said that! I'm a big Supernatural fan too. You're right, I could totally hear this song in connection with the show. I'm always surprised Karnivool isn't more popular.

[@decimater75]

I’ve always thought “treading with a beast” since that makes more sense than piece, but I guess they both mean the same thing in context.

[@nikkibotts6239]

@@decimater75 These lyrics are off the Karnivool website. I agree that beast makes much more sense.

Favourite vool track.. perfection!

[@dirtyduck10]

This entire song is a mood

[@TheChoofmonster]

No I cant take credit for this mate, Karnivool is a popular Australian Alternative Rock band. Seen them live a couple of times, they're awesome. I simply rendered the song using Winamp's visualiser and a custom preset pack, screen recorded, and used Adobe Premiere to sync the video to the music.

[@ksturmer5388]

Probably my favourite song....ever! Don't know why? It just GETS me!!! LOL!

[@Torthane]

Listen to 02 Panic Room by Riverside. It has a similar feel in a lot of ways. Riverside is an amazing band.

[@ksturmer5388]

[@thorsteinnsigtryggsson7579]

one of the classics for sure

[@LedZeta275]

Why is the ending of any of their songs so epic?

[@carlporter3844]

Sounds kind of like Riverside,both kickass bands in their own right.

[@stonedgsxr4211]

I absolutely love Riverside. I'm hoping to see them in Atlanta in a couple months

[@Torthane]

No wonder this is my favorite Karnivool song. It has that emotional drive and bass-centric sound that makes me love Riverside so much! This and 02 Panic Room by Riverside both pack the same kind of punch!

Natural trip

[@drudiogenes8544]

Yes.

[@jorgetool2048]

Am I the only one hearing so much inspiration from Tool?

[@johnpeoplefox]

This is exactly why Maynard hates tool fans! because you all think tool are the only band in the world. They have absolutely no influence from tool. Their tuning on guitar is B F# B G B E for starters. They have a 5 string bass player, and their singer is influenced by pop, blues and lots of rock. When you make stupid comments like this it really makes it clear how little you know about music and whats influenced what. Look up all of karnivools influences they mentioned in an interview and shut the fuck up.

[@cultofleda]

But Karnivool themselves said that they're influenced by the likes of Tool, Meshuggah, etc. Where is the problem? There's clearly parallels and there's nothing wrong about it. Using different tunings/instruments doesn't eliminate influences in any way. Only because they're not playing in Drop D doesn't mean they're NOT influenced by Tool or anything. Plus a band can have a plethora of influences and let's be frank, the bands I mentioned earlier surely have influenced a whole lot of bands. Get off your high horse.

[@jeremyread261]

The WHITE WOLFF simmer down. Anyone can hear that they have Tool influence no doubt about it. They still kick ass in their own unique way

[@johnpeoplefox]

Jeremy Read as i said if your world is limited to peoples opinion read the interviews and shut ur trap. otherise enlighten me why tool are worth a mention more than all the other influences combined.

the guitar sound is very un-Karnivool

[@alexei4125]

Sounds like A perfect circle

[@jaysteph2505]

What's with the increasing to unbearable levels of distortion starting at 3:40? Does the actual recording do this? Otherwise, epic song.

[@theiceman0101]

Yeh that's intentional. I personally like it, but it's of course subjective.

[@Acronisification]

If they play it live, i can only describe it as the easiest and happiest coma you will ever slip into

[@ians9549]

its intentional and i think it adds so much to the song

Could anyone possibly tab this for me? Please. I'm trying to figure it out by ear on guitar and bass but I'm struggling :(.

Maybe someone can explain to me how this obsession with using Electronica in music instead of riffs or actual instruments ever sounds better.This band undoubtedly has 2 of the greastest sounding albums I've ever heard!Sound Awake,easily top 5 all time for me. What are we doing here!?

Wasn't this in Sucker Punch?

[@Torthane]

You're probably thinking of Army of Me by Bjork. If you dig the vibes of that song and this one, I highly recommend you listen to "02 Panic Room" by Riverside. It's got an even more savage bass line!

[@yourlifeisameme1462]
