"Club banger for metal sad bois" is the best description I've heard for this song 😂😂

[@pancakeburglar9361]

I’ve never been the biggest Silent Planet fan but this song is legit great, total banger!!!

[@technickn9n3]

i wasnt either till i heard panic room, banger band

[@jessicastoker8932]

I would literally skip past anything I saw that was related to Silent Planet. I just didn't vibe them... and then I heard this and was like, "Well now I'm a SP fan I guess." Similar to when I first heard "Sempiternal", and I was now a BMTH fan, lol

[@mpk6664]

​​@@jessicastoker8932That's funny because I had a moment in time that I'd skip over anything that WASN'T SP related. Saw them live at Warped tour 2016 and that was it... I was hooked.

I don't care how crappy the rest of 2023 will be, 2023 will be one of the best years for music, in my book.

[@tamere43]

Legit with this, Johnny Booth and Moodring this years music releases are goated

[@pedropessoa2246]

Absolutely! Currents, Invent Animate, Sleep Token, Silent Planet, Resolve... damn what an amazing year 🔥

[@HunterArnett-g1z]

I'm starting to agree with you. This year, Metal music is going off.

[@florianfercsak5186]

​@@pedropessoa2246Don't forget After The Burial, Tesseract, Veil Of Maya, Polaris and Make Them Suffer, 2023 is a huge year for modern metal

[@snakeeyes9246]

This year has been incredible for music, and not too bad overall IMO. Last year was great for music, but absolutely awful in every other way.

[@WastedLight]

Im gonna say it, 2020s are such a comeback for metal music

[@loris6719]

I don't know if we can call it a comeback because it probably was great before but yeah this year brought so much new ideas, bands and bangers that it's amazing today

[@ven_aeva]

I feel like Northlane really kicked off a new trend with their two latest albums. I really dig it, since I've been wanting more bands that give off similar vibes to what Sybreed did when they still existed. Cyber Metal is goated.❤

[@ianwalker2205]

Thank you! Most of this song sounds like it comes straight off Alien/Obsidian

[@BruteFactMusic]

@@ianwalker2205 Can we give some credit to I See Stars pls D:

[@vladimir_ckau]

Sybreed definitely bring memories back

[@ven_aeva]

I see where you're coming from, but I feel like ISS sound a lot more EDM-ish than Cyberpunk-ish, for lack of better words. A least that's how I have always perceived them.@@BruteFactMusic

[@patricksullivan2473]

no@@BruteFactMusic

[@EuroJorrå]

Celldweller is the OG man, i hope this genre gets more recognition

[@Griffolion0]

I'm glad I wasn't the only one that had this thought.

[@leonfrost2829]

I told yall Northlane was a band that traveled back in time to our timeline to influence our music So It won't suck later and I was right! 😎

[@ColterRasmussen]

Those last two albums were absolutely from 2050 haha so freaking good

[@jeremykarwoski6913]

Seriously man. Xen had me like 😳

[@aaronpanesar]

Echo Chamber, Bloodline, 4D, Carbonised. Yeah, amazing call.

[@LionheartSJZ]

Never heard of this band. Absolutely freaking love this song, I'm so so so happy right now Nik posted this! Made my day!

[@malaki7335]

Best metalcore bad of all time IMO

[@onnuttig]

They've got a lot of great songs, definitely check them out

[@1000EyesCasts]

I'll be up front that I'm kinda a mega fan of this band so take what I say with a grain of salt. But I'll say this band is one of the deepest most thought provoking metalcore bands in the scene. Songs about the spanish civil war, homelessness in the LGBTQ youth community, the rise of neo nazis in the US, PTSD from war torn soldiers, how native people had their land stolen from them, alongside Garrett's own deep dark depression. And on top of that musically they're crazy talented in ways that avoid most of the chuggyness a lot of other metalcore bands lean on. I've also met the band a few times now and Garrett himself is one of the sweetest most caring people. I transitioned and basically left metalcore because I didn't really know if I was welcome in that scene anymore but Visible Unseen talked so deeply about queer issues and was spoken from words of trans and queer people he had met and connected with that I knew I could at least feel safe at their shows. It's a level that most bands can't reach on an emotional level

[@peytonbierens517]

Definitely give their album “iridescence” a listen. One of my fave albums

[@somabul4]

@@1000EyesCasts As a mega fan of this band I very much appreciate you. Lovers forever.

[@arturcirilo7601]

I hope we continue to discover more bands that mix metal with other genres \,,/

[@altuervo]

Rankka is a great one, check out his cover of satisfaction

[@chkchkpap45]

This has major blue stahli and celldweller vibes with some great two step metal breakdowns. Hell yeah

[@chkchkpap45]

Definitely some technical stuff that reminded me a lot of born of Osiris as wel

[@Doofunator]

Celldweller does not get enough credit. Klayton is a pioneer

[@sdmf923]

Super happy to see someone mention Blue Stahli!

[@wearethearchers]

Cypher by Northlane def the influence for this track. Garret commented and said cypher was his favourite track off that album on their insta and it shows. Similar synths

[@Badalabandabad]

Yooo this is sick! That song is on my top 3 northlane songs, you can imagine how much I love this song lol

[@thecommenternobodycaresabout]

I was moments away from saying "not a fan" and then 0:46 happened which changed my mind.

[@LeftyConspirator]

Identical reaction to mine.

[@TiMiDiZ]

when the guitars and drums hit after the cyberpunky intro I instantly opened spotify and added this to my list this is so good with the emotion and ambient elements

[@moremeditations3622]

We made the same face at 0:47

[@robbomcrobberson]

This song goes so hard! i cant believe i slept on this! it’s like a cyber punk - floating through space - Acid Trip synth filled banger!

[@nobodyknowsrhys]

Before I was even halfway through this song the other day when it dropped, I knew this was gonna be a NikNoc KZbin reaction. The synths during the heavy parts actually make me physically uncomfortable, which I think is the intent? Song slaps, glad the boys in SP are back at it.

[@babatazyah]

The synths are very much in the vein of the soundtrack for the movie Annihilation, which is cosmic horror, so that makes sense to me.

[@pedropessoa2246]

Yeah man... those synths are so eerie and uncomfortable 🔥❤️ I LOVE ITTT

[@oscurostalgia9283]

Modern metal had already met cyberpunk in "parasite eve" by bmth

[@alecdawg11]

I don't care what anyone says: this is the best song they've put out since Panic Room. Their first two albums will always be GOATED for me... But this is the best song they've put out in years. I cannot get that synth line out of my head.

[@hhenne351]

This feels like a metal version of Netflix Dark soundtrack and I love it! Banger!

[@austinhancock8204]

I understand the desire to "evolve" it at the end, but I think it was just another way to divert from their norm. We all expected the breakdown, but they went back into the melody/0's. Plays more like a single. I dig it.

[@MrJerryCola]

I really hope we see more bands move into the Dark Synth sound. Love the synth wave vibes, and mixing it with metal is my jam!

[@Ewaldovic]

This thing is mastered by Buster Odeholm. As to my understanding, only masterpieces are created by Buster's hands. Same goes for this Banger!

[@Murrrum]

This band is so fucking underrated it hurts my soul. Thank you for reacting to them, they are so lovely

[@charliewaterson8401]

Northlane planted the seed and we are seeing it grow

[@mdntctyvlcn]

I hope Silent Planet really explores and pioneers cybermetal.

[@tomatomtom4921]

Unfortunately the cybermetal era is long gone :/

[@BatuWienholts]

I discovered them through this song, major bad omens influence i think

[@RedCap-vz1dw]

Fun fact: This song is about that van crash they went through last year

6:10 i see what you did there, Architects... a match made in heaven... aha >w> we have fun here

[@CannibalJoy]

It's like a mix of TDWP's more recent stuff and Dayseeker. I love it soooo much.

[@a1paradox19]

Silent planet and TDWP my top two favorite bands

[@brandonsperberg6371]

Idk why but that emotional part reminds me so much of bring me's song hospital for souls

[@itzkillerbrostudios8904]

never seen nik this hyped in anty of the hard rock vids except when he reacted to Will Ramos singing Demoliser 😭

[@marmamel7791]

Never heard of this band before, well this goes in my playlist

[@benr7652]

I'll never forget how I came across this banger , in a 3D Realms games announcement of all places a year ago lol

[@theunexpectedua]

Man that eerie guitar in that bridge.. it's so haunting! Love it! I applaud Silent Planet for this and I want more of it!

[@Naomi-zr8ks]

the bridge in hospital for souls - bmth is sooo similar

[@theunexpectedua]

​​​@@Naomi-zr8ksMy favourite BMTH song) Love me some eerie and haunting leads in a dramatic setting with powerful vocals and lyrics. A great comparison!

[@jon2401]

I love this band. Always called this genre Slam-poetrycore.

[@jbales8990]

I've always described them as La Dispute with breakdowns lol

[@Taelor_Made]

It’s almost like you can feel the weight of this song… I absolutely love this band.

[@ironklaw]

Gives me big HEALTH vibes. They recently remixed Bloodlines by Northlane, and it rules.

[@thecrimsonace3032]

Thank you Nik for introducing me to… whatever this is. I had no idea such a genre existed.

[@ScreenSpidah]

This is why I love Metalcore

[@Johannes1137]

This song is dope because it perfectly balances heavy, and sad. As Nik said, it's for metal sad bois. Sick 🤘

[@saltysteel3996]

DOOM chugs with Cyberpunk styles. Just needs an 808 drop hit.

[@devyncook8886]

When if saw this music video. I had to double the name of the band. Couldn’t believe it was Silent Planet. It so good too.

[@JakobStrand]

The crescendos in this song and its dynamic is absolutely insane.

[@gSWG3R]

Northlane set the bar yet again. Ty Northlane for my new favourite Silent Planet song

[@cursre4324]

Nik's the reason I get to know bands I listen to everyday.

[@pauriusd6626]

Lately I found many genre mixing with metal songs and band and I must say I love the diversity nowdays !

Didn't know about this band before I went to see Dayseeker a month back, but since then, they absolutely slap, brutal in person

[@JooliganTheSnooligan]

God damn it. Every time I come up with something nik reviews it the next day.

This song literally brought a tear to my eye the first time I heard it

[@Maybeabandaid9]

This is a banger, nice styling.

Chills when the instrumentals came in

[@Monius13]

This and Crosses' new track Invisible Hand has been on repeat for days. I love seeing a lot more creative experimentation in music lately!

Bruh i was literally just thinking "I wonder if Nik has reacted to this song yet" *opens YT* 😳

[@OG-PranksterCat]

Between the new Veil of Maya album and now this track, I'm loving this Cyberpunk movement in the metal scene 🔥

[@meduzz13]

Love someone in chat said it sounds like Essenger, that’s true I dig essenger works

[@matthewdelaney5366]

That ending bit gets me every time.

[@TheRealBrotherGrimmy]

I'd never heard of these guys before... this was a really interesting first experience that I can't say I'm disappointed about

[@TheLCraft]

2023 is such a good year for metal and to be fair music in general. There are so many bangers this year, it's insane.

[@phenom_gg]

I remember listen to the Depths II from this band a few years ago and auto fell in love with their sound and so poetic lyrics.

[@sum12k6]

Really love this song, just wish there was more of that incredible chorus

[@ClamFundingo]

Finally a Silent Planet song I can play on guitar

[@NatureFavor]

one of the best songs so far of 2023, so fucking good

[@therestingmitchface6241]

I feel like they talked a lot to Northlane when writing this. I love the new direction personally. Honestly I’ve never been able to digest their early material, felt too much like spoken word and then music. But lately they’ve found this incredible mix of beautiful music with Garrett’s poetic nature and lyrics

[@TrollParty97]

I see so many Bad Omens influence in this one. Visuals and music, and I'm totally in.

[@The_real_JulieKelsea]

Watching Nik feeling it is everything! This band is 🔥 thank you. It’s now in my rotation 🤘🏼

[@SchnitzeIkuchen]

Feels like a mashup between The Anix and Sleep Token, love it ❤

[@ROY57ON]

Slight HEALTH vibes. I love it!

[@Griffolion0]

This style of music reminds me a lot of early 2010s Celldweller.

[@joshforest304]

I was worried at the start but was pleasantly surprised. 🎉

[@paramourcat]

Wasn't sure how to feel about this song initially, being such a big fan of their other music. And as you said it could use a little variation. But it's short enough that you don't really get bored of the similar bits and I found that they kept popping up in my head days after listening to it just once the first time. The vibe of the video reminds me a lot of the show Dark, which is dope, and the lyrics are cool. Garret kind of sad dancing in a button up in the club is kind of hilarious, reminds me of being on tour honestly when you just end up in some weird place in a weird city after a show.

[@travy9148]

Pretty sure this was written about their tour bus crash they were involved in. Fucking banger.

[@edelwiess2306]

This might bring me more into the metal scene, as my background is mostly electro industrial aaaannd… Sleep Token lol

[@MatthiasPowerbomb]

I stumbled across this Silent Planet song the other day. Pretty sweet. It's so interesting the way the genres crossover in this one.

[@adamcogan211]

This is my first introduction to Silent Planet and I absolutely love it! Can’t stop listening to this or watching the video!

[@tristanterry5111]

You finally reacted to SP and i'm six days late to it!! AHH! I'm going to see them live in September and I'm SO psyched. Edit: just kidding, you know SP already and I've just missed that information lol!

[@funeralforyou]

Waited a "long" time for your reaction to this song and hoped u like it. So... now i am pleased ;)

[@collinmcmullin7266]

this song is just flat out fucking amazing! goosebumps every listen.

[@eloverlord96]

[@Wack..]

The last few years have been amazing for metal

[@VideoEgo1]

Evolution of Silent Planet is quite remarkable.

[@farwoodfarm9296]

This song is really starting to grow on me. I wasn't sure what I thought after first listen.

[@deletado12]

Silent planet in one more great song! What a vibe!

[@rplgrime8006]

This is what you call ultra-clean while filthy! Love it!

[@Lu_No9x]

Main riff kinda reminds me of Gone With The Wind from Architects. But oh God it's good. Silent Planet never fails to deliver.

[@Gremlinz33]

Giving off some Trent Reznor vibes at the start, I really like this!

[@Kotsoros37]

Love this style so much , love that they went this direction, hopefully it continues, giving that new northlane vibes that I love . I do agree that it would have been even cooler if they evolved the heavy part a little, but it keeps with the trance minimalism in a way. Unitytx is a good rap and metal combo, especially their last track roc shit, and the new wargasm song is amazing 90s EDM industrial influenced music

[@zackcochran4924]

I wish I could go back to my first listen. This song has to be single of the year

[@erock.steady]

oh a touch of soilwork tinged with a bit of in flames

[@cylershaw7701]

I know that it’s already electronic as it is, but I can imagine a well known EDM producer fuckin with it.

[@DanielLucas-qt2qr]

One of the most underrated bands out there

[@ledooni]

Their best track since Trilogy IMO, absolutely love it and have it on repeat! Did you already check out the new Polaris track on stream as well? Would love to see that video as well. It's unreal how great this new music is that Ryan blessed us with one last time

[@mansonfd7835]

Massive Bring Me The Horizon + Celldweller + Nine Inch Nails + Blue Stahli vibes.

[@DudeLoopNoob]

Favorite song of 2023

[@GodlyGlenn]

This is so different from anything I’ve really listened to

[@dynamicdingus]

If you wanna listen to some actual cyberpunk metal, listen to irving force. My fav in this subgenre. I recommend the songs "void" and "touch the corpse"

[@heyitsryry]

Asmongold really became a great singer wtf
