Watching Nik react to new tracks by bands I've been meaning to check out is the best way to get into new stuff.

[@lightningmonky7674]

This is what metalcore is supposed to be all about! Heavy and catchy YET experimental 🤘🏻🔥🔥

[@trashmas]

Dude they are SO good live. I wish ppl gave more credit to Sean too cause he's hands down one of the best vocalists out there.

[@maervin]

That DEAD at 2:48 is honestly the purest most brutal thing I've heard in a long time and I can't say how much I love it. (Also I was pretty sure it was DOOM before reading the lyrics.)

[@ned9542]

The guitar work, drums, vocals, the atmosphere... It's perfect

[@kyunasan]

This is Alex's first song with them and she absolutly NAILED IT! I can't wait to hear more stuff with her, i'm so hype jeez Also the riffs are insanely crazy, and Sean's vocals are awesome as always, he's killing it!

[@caralhosandreotti2663]

The back and forth screams between vocalists is very cool

[@sc2mizzit]

I'm not going to say that they peaked, but this is the best version of them so far.

[@Natan.Barros]

The only thing stopping me from saying they peaked, is the fact that they somehow peak every new release. Like, how can they beat this? Well, they will

[@Anthony-pq4vr]

absolutely agree!!

[@TrigoNomentry]

@@Natan.Barros Every song and every album is a banger. They have only improved since Neverbloom. Though as much as we all wish them to go back to Neverbloom, MTS has a fucking formula and it works.

Alex is a great addition, DTC were criminally underrated. Her screams were filth as the front woman she just adds so much to MTS

[@ZSpwnage]

I was sad to hear Drown this CIty separated but this will do!

[@callum7859]

These kind of clean elevated choruses give me goosebumps

[@kevinjohnson9414]

[@XxXJugularJoeXxX]

December 2nd for me. So stoked. 🤘

[@aidanwilliams1660]

[@JT-ne8du]

Seeing them in a week!

[@sevenfacedsin]

Alex fits Make Them Suffer perfectly. Her added screams are intense. I still miss Louisa though.

[@ShamShieldRetired]

This might be my favorite song ever written, it has everything, male and female vocals, awesome screams, disgusting breakdown, riff city, catchy chorus and last but not least war drums.

[@dxm028]

Booka did bring great stuff to MTS, but man I feel like Alex has even more that she can provide to elevate the band even further (which is hard to do), I’m very excited for the future of the band

[@sonja1150]

Sean's singing touches my soul deeply 😊

[@bensunnyisaac]

When a band has an Alex in the lineup, the entire band benefits. I could say the same for Trivium.

[@CM-gz7bv]

[@avahxnley685]

somehow 2 years in a row, Make Them Suffer have released my favourite metal song of the year 😍

[@the_beemer]

@Dragon Ball fans can't read You have written 894 comments on Niks channel and I am under the impression all of them complain about people calling metalcore metal and people calling thingd heavy you dont think are heavy How about...you get a hobby, touch some grass, meet some people idk...sounds unhealthy...

[@avahxnley685]

@Dragon Ball fans can't read i mean... its definitely metal lmao

[@avahxnley685]

@Dragon Ball fans can't read its literally called metal-core

[@avahxnley685]

@Dragon Ball fans can't read but metalcore isnt "a bit" of metal on top of hardcore, its a fusion of the 2 genres. in the same way that if you had a fusion of a chocolate cake and a carrot cake, you'd have a chocolate carrot cake. now i completely agree that some bands that are being called metalcore bands, are hardly metal, but to say that "metalcore isnt metal" would be a false statement.

[@hydrus2076]

@Dragon Ball fans can't read people like you is what's wrong with metal. Grow up.

[@glen3133]

anything sharing a release date with a lorna shore record would absolutely be drowned and forgotten, but this one? nah, banger. they did the unthinkable, the impossible also listened to some of their older stuff by chance today, and holy shit, widower and 27 bang hard af

[@elbatoumiq666]

Check out songs like Hollowed heart, Dead Plains, Maelstrom, Blood moon and Fake for more heavy chonkers If you're also into more melodic stuff you can check out Fireworks, That's just life, Ether 10/10 favourite band, would recommend

[@Ethanjdj]

@@elbatoumiq666 Can't also forget about Weeping Wastelands and Lord of Woe, those two hit hard

So happy to see more women getting opportunities in the metal scene. So much talent that used to go overlooked is really coming through these days.

[@juliotorres3147]

This is a weird comment considering Metal has always accepted women just fine for decades…

[@ConnorJaneu]

@@juliotorres3147 I mean, as fans and lead singers maybe. I’d certainly agree it’s a more inclusive scene overall. However, I def think we’re seeing women in roles we haven’t usually seen them before; guitarists especially but just more instrumentalists in general.

[@HellzAssassn]

​@@ConnorJaneu There's been so many women in bass, drums, guitar,keyboard, etc. all the time since metal started? Maybe you're just realizing that because of more videos readily available in modern society.

[@ConnorJaneu]

@@HellzAssassn I’m sure that’s a contributing factor, but I definitely think it’s more common than ever. That’s not to discount those who were already thriving in the scene, even more respect to them for being successful !
