Nevermore - This Godless Endeavor Reaction

Quoth the Raven....
Music and rights : Nevermore
And on the open road we came to a sign
For it was foretold that the weak would inherit
And nothing would change
Here we are at the crossroads, standing face to back
Still afraid to see our eyes
I feel helpless and alone, trapped on the third stone
Sitting here sideways on a cold stone floor
My guitar gently bleeding and wanting more
When I heard a sound come rapping, tapping on my door
Hello, I'm happy to meet you
In your confidence is it safe?
Sit down I'm happy to greet you
To feed your greedy dog at the edge of the stage?
But before, before you slam the door
Tell me when, tell me why, tell me what this fucking life is for
We fly through this godless endeavor
We try to explain the black forever
I feel helpless and alone, trapped on the third stone
I feel permanently stoned, this godless endeavor the only cage I've known
Our organic equation has shown it's flaw
Can we agree to disagree on the concept of god?
As I lifted up my brother he said to me
"Abandon naive realism, surrender thought in cold precision"
I feel empty and deranged, denied one last epiphany and ushered from the stage
Thou shalt not question, the role of science is not to eliminate god
As alternative gods multiply science stands accused of theocide
Consume, conform
The children sitting in the trees, they turn to laugh at me
They tell me that I'm insane, but in my mind I know I'm to blame
Alone within my lunacy, dementia fills the void within me
No testament, prayer or diseased lament can heal my wounds
They are so discontent
All the faithful fall onto their knees
And praise the priests of industrial disease
We contemplate oblivion as we resonate our dissonance
In godless random interpretation
The universe still expands, mankind still can't understand
How to define you, so hide your face and watch us exterminate ourselves over you
Welcome to the end my friend, the sky has opened

[@Duct_Tape.]

I'm surprised having Jeff Loomis *and* Chris Broderick on the same stage doesn't create wormholes or something.

[@purgatorydota]

Hahahahahaa

[@vforvinico]

I miss Nevermore so much...

[@guitarbattleslive1274]

me too

[@kevinkuypers]

Hell yea man.. I saw Warrel Dane last year with his Brazilian band performing the whole "Dead Hear in a Dead World" album and a couple of other Nevermore-classics, it wasn't nearly as good as the old days, though... And unfortunately, Warrel seems to be a rack these days... I'm looking forward to his second solo record soon!

[@riblo72]

Me too... saw them live several times and each time was a great concert... i never saw such a brilliant band in the last 10 years

[@purgatorydota]

Rip Warrel God

[@michaelgreene6926]

Nevermore - The River Dragon Has Come

[@andrewmassa5318]

This is so good. My first time listening to this band, I want more.

[@RubenBuijs]

Me too!

[@timjenkins502]

Andrew M all of their albums are awesome! But start with Dead heart in a dead world, dreaming neon black and this godless endeavor

[@andrewmassa5318]

timjenkins502 Will do.

[@timjenkins502]

Andrew M other albums that are a must listen are Iced Earth-horror show Scar symmetry-pitch black progress Symphony x- devine wings of tragedy Annihilator- Alice in hell Dream Theater- train of thought I don't know if you have heard them but if you haven't...do so :)

[@andrewmassa5318]

timjenkins502 Thanks. I will start with Dream Theater.

[@solarstorm2011]

+++ Masterpiece song and album. Amazingly, you uploaded this two weeks before Warrel Dane's passing, may he rest in truth. ++++

[@jamieperdue8663]

Thank you much my friend. Glad you liked them. So overlooked as they came out in the mid 90s.

[@RubenBuijs]

Thank you for the suggestion!What an introduction!

[@DEFKNIGHT]

Oh I am sooooo glad you chose this song. A masterpiece! One of THE if Not THE VERY MOST underated bands ever. This song is incredible!

[@2460joel]

Glad to have come up on your channel brother!!! I had just finished a Vid of mine paying tribute to Warrell Dane with this album playing in the background. Great choice that was recommended to you , My favorite track from this album is "my acid words".

[@Kipex]

Do yourself a favor. Same show: Nevermore - Born

[@kevinkuypers]

Holy fuck Ruben, thanks for checking them out. It is in my opinion one of their masterpieces and one of their most complex songs - it takes many listens, but if you got it, it's absolutely amazing (including the lyrics!). They are an example for many others actually, especially Jeff Loomis. If you want to go for something easier, thrashier and more "in your face", you should definately check out "Born" and "Enemies of Reality". They are deserved legends of heavy metal! Another thing I can recommend (if you like Jeff Loomis) is his other project "Conquering Dystopia", it's very technical, but melodic extreme metal (instrumental!!!), they have a lot of drum and guitar videos on KZbin and believe: You will not be disappointed. Hope to see more of Nevermore/Loomis/Dane etc., have a great evening.

[@luisnabais]

RIP Warrel Dane

[@futurewavecs]

I saw your River Dragon has Come tribute review with the passing of Warrel. Definitely check out more. They are definitely in my top 5 bands of my life and I am 47 and have been a metal head since I was 11 or so.

[@fansforevertechromechannel5765]

Hi Ruben, the Nevermore are the greatest heavy bands in the world music scene...more up Nevermore music.

[@genenoroum3968]

Fans forever TECHROME channel Great nevermore.. but!...i heard the Techrome..great thrash metal band made in Italy

[@gimmyernadez2572]

Fans forever TECHROME channel Great techrome

[@hirohisahiroji1079]

Great techrome band of broders

[@andrewhart9310]

Ruben, so glad to see you get around to Nevermore! Although they're not quite your typical fare, I could totally see the transition from Devin Townsend to Nevermore. I cannot possibly recommend anything by them higher than Believe in Nothing, although there are some other fantastic offerings (River Dragon has Come, Heart Collector, Lotus Eaters, Poison Godmachine, Cenotaph, Beyond Within, Your Poison Throne....I could go on and on!). Cheers!

[@tomh3999]

More Nevermore pls. Their older albums are really great.

[@riblo72]

all their albums are great... maybe only the last one was not great as the other but surely better than most bands of today...

[@cappy781]

Nevermore is the best heavy tech band of all time! The whole band was amazing rip to my favorite vocalist warrel dane

[@Moxx3]

Fark yeah... RIP Warrel. One of the most underrated bands of all time.

[@Selkirk69]

The drumming and lyrics really stand out for me and yes Warrel puts his heart into this

[@Galacticat_]

Been waiting for this! Glad you like them. One of my all time favorites. Shame they broke up. Warrel Dane was in Sanctuary before Nevermore and he restated the band after Nevermore split. He also has a solo album which is nice but it's more on the rock side of things. Nevermore's old albums are more heavy metal and prog, then they started adding tthrash and heavier elements and 7 string guitars later on. Their entire discography is amazing!

[@PikkaBird]

And now, well... I suppose you've heard.

[@cheyanne919]

Nevermore- Fianl Product or Future Uncertain. Both are great. That whole album is bad ass. I love it so much. R.I.P W.D.

[@tvd7377]

Groetjes vanuit zuid afrika, ik kwam heel toevallig jouw channel tegen. Ga ook Karmaflow even reviewen of Equilibrio. Rock opera's van Nederland

[@wilsard]

after a dozen listens, what do you think ruben? i think warrel is getting his answers now.

[@dregnar85]

Another bloody awesome band from my youth.

[@timjenkins502]

Anyone who is having their first listen might need a senzu bean after

[@chrisseaman5055]

Nevermore. Still best band ever.

[@durcorr]

More of Nevermore please Ruben !!!

[@brenno_sellum]

How can you listen to Nevermore just on 2017 man??? Don't waste your time anymore, run to listen to all their albums!!!

[@nickcolbert9615]

Modern metal with 80s style singing... not a bad combination! 🤘🏻🍻🖖🏼

[@CryThunderdarealone]

I wouldn't say that's 80's singing.

[@SvendleBerries]

RIP Warrel Dane :(

[@MetalAtog]

This is an eargasm... like a friend of mine would say this is better than sex :-D

[@TMPOUZI]

One of the greatest metal bands ever. It's a shame that only a few bands become widely known and especially the more crappy ones

[@lemniscatusofficial]

[@tox9427]

I, Voyager or Dead Heart In A Dead World are more offensiv and not so complex songs so you maybe can capture them in one trial ^^

[@jamieperdue8663]

I voyager is great.

[@marcoveit4815]

Sanzu - those who sleep in the east I know they don't get tons of views but i'm sure you'll love it. Reminds me a bit of gojira 😄

[@dirtpile]

Loomis is from Wisconsin ... all cool people are ;)

[@RubenBuijs]

Then I assume you are from Wisconsin?

[@draadhaai]

Fun fact. You did a Carcass video last week and now you Nevermore. Actually, Carcass' guitards Michael Amott is the founding member of Arch Enemy. Jeff Loomis joined Arch Enemy 2 years ago :) . Basically, together with Alissa's former band The Agonist (which you covered last week) it looks like you're digging deeper into the Arch Enemy history xD

[@RubenBuijs]

Thnx for the info Going to Arch Enemy?

[@draadhaai]

Not espcially for Arch Enemy itself no. Seen them 5 times live now (3 with angela, 2 with alissa) and although they sound great, I'm not a fan :) . Are you going to?

[@Lordercat]

Jeff Loomis is a master guitar player - for without one single doubt but I can't stand Warrel Dane's voice, just my opinion.

[@mickjob6155]
