[@fromheartfeltplaces_4627]

I was at Elevation! THAT BASS AT THE START OF YOUR SET MADE THE NIGHT, really set the energy after a solid performance by Dayseeker. Hope to see you in Michigan again soon!

[@steedenscfc]

You have made a masterpiece with this album!

[@Clintoniumer]

You guys are fucking legends!!!! Make another trip to Michigan I wanna open the pit the fuck upppp

Oh cool I listened to a song before Nik did

[@camdenwyeth316]

Ikr, he's usually how I find new songs to listen to in the first place :D

[@ToxicChaos115]

Cover it before he does, then I'll be impressed

[@qhajajsshsks6107]

I got it when it was 20 seconds out of the oven

[@j.kallai4348]

At least he posted it later :p

[@NikNocturnal]

I gotta up my game

[@Forest_V19]

Whoever does Polaris’ mixes seriously need a raise.

[@UltimaSeraph]

These Australians know how to riff

[@primedisappointment9741]

Fact

[@EnvisionedBlindness]

It's like, in their blood or something man. Their metal and hardcore communities are just on another level

[@bastiu.2020]

Yes its🔥

[@IgorJCorrea]

@@bastiu.2020 I hope this wasn't a pun 👀

[@NikNocturnal]

^^ true

[@St3yn012]

Actually both the main vocalist and the bass player both do cleans and screams, you missed their last single that they released a while back called Masochist where the main vocalist sings the intro. Their voices harmonize very well.

[@c4gob00m]

They both have very unique voices as well that work well together. Jake is the very classic metalcore backing vocalist, and Jamie has such a sweet voice, it's crazy. I want to hear him sing more.

[@St3yn012]

@@c4gob00m Well he sang all of Martyr (Waves), love that song.

[@idk-zy9ig]

He also sings the last part of the chorus in masochist. Didn't figure it out til recently

[@metallifan561991]

Definitely check out masochist, it has those cleans you’re looking for.

[@NikNocturnal]

I checked it when it dropped, which is why I didn't react. Pretty decent track

[@dansparano]

Been following Polaris since I was in 8 th grade now I’m a sophomore and they still bump hard!

[@childofbodom1314]

Damn good taste young man lol I'm almost 24 and it's scary 😂

[@twinny_mi]

Same here same here same here

[@evaniberson5513]

Reminds me a lot of old Every Time I Die! Shit’s fire

[@rockxhero]

my bro said it reminded him of ETID as well, & that's not a bad thing!

[@axjxaxx605]

You're so right. Hot Damn style : )

[@phidipidies]

That was my exact thought. The intro has Heavy Etid vibes.

[@evaniberson5513]

For real that intro PUNCHES! Never been a huge fan of this band but this song has been spun a few times now

[@LazyAlternativeBrat]

It feels like a mix of Beartooth and Everytime I Die to me

[@ichristinrock]

Polaris is killing it right now! Release after release being straight fire! 🔥

[@NikNocturnal]

^^

[@PrinceBaconYT]

The song is fucking insane live. The pit goes insane and it's awesome. Love Polaris and beyond hyped for their new album! 🤟

[@Skepsis0Metal]

Really perfecting that blend of old and new school hardcore/metalcore atmosphere. I could definitely hear some Norma Jean coming out of this track.

[@jasonlovesmusicreacting882]

Same!!

[@mitchdbd]

Love your reacts so much mate, really got me into your channel

[@jok3r906]

The pre breakdown and breakdown.. When those hit.. I hit the floor from just pure excitement

[@NikNocturnal]

^^

[@OhrionReacts]

Hell yeah man! Great reaction 👌👌👌

[@SleepyNoddy]

I loving the real hype in Australian metal bands. Polaris is such a good band live.

[@Thenephilimrising]

Saw them live in NZ, and they go so hard live. Australian bouncy metalcore is something else. Between Deadlights, Thornhill, Northlane, Polaris they are killing it!

[@backfaced]

I was at the show when they debut this song on their tour last year (Brisbane) . it was absolutely crazy!

[@steeljedi7902]

I met Jamie live... such a nice guy...

[@louieworkman9949]

Seen this live a couple of times now, so much fun

[@itzDrexzyyy]

Never heard these before that’s was awesome definitely gonna have to look up more of their stuff. Can’t say I’m lovin the vocal style he uses, but the guitars and everything was awesome.

[@Skeetopunk01]

Great band. Saw them last year. Really looking forward to the new record.

[@stevenschorr8737]

As already mentioned, check out the other track released on the upcoming album, Masochist. Good mix with clean vocals.

[@crist953]

Dude yes! Been a fan of Polaris for years!!! They kick ass, glad to see they're getting more recognition

[@Zack.barlow]

Finally some reactions🔥

[@EnvisionedBlindness]

Just got done listening to it and needed to see what you thought of it. We always have very similar reactions and I think its hillarious how similar all our tastes are in this community. Like attracts like and all that. Feels like an echo chamber at some times lol

[@Alex-oq3mk]

I'm getting serious Greyhaven vibes on those riffs and I love it

[@josuastangl7140]

Empty Black was insane!

[@rudy4626]

Factssssss n a lil Norma Jean

[@iamanactualcat]

Djentier!

[@joshc.3918]

at some parts the vocals remind me a little bit of greyhaven too, but not too much of them do

[@raku10000]

Can't wait for the album.

[@jackrobinson8609]

These guys are huge! They need more coverage! They go OFF live!

[@benbrooks8044]

This was great to hear the diversity that will be on the new album. The track MASOCHIST I think is the more melodic track with more cleans. So I'm hoping the rest of the tracks on the new album will be a mix between. But absolute bangers none the less!! 🤘🏼

[@rickyekenlow]

awesome song and video !

[@r3demption91]

Honestly man if you havn't seen these guys live before, I would 100% recommend it, I grew up in the same town as these guys, and coming up with their music they are fucking 1000000000 x more insane live as well. Get on it ASAP these lads are fucking down to earth

[@slushpuppydevil]

Yesss as soon as i heard this i was thinking cmon nik react

[@HiThereFaceHere]

Polaris is so fucking sick live! Those Mayones guitars sound incredible and vocals are flawless

[@Cayde-8]

This a very bouncy track. Will go hard in concert!

[@sky_kryst]

Seeing you react to all this new music I think you forgot 'Poverty of Self' came out a month ago by Currents Also hope you do a reaction to Stone of Mourning by Kadinja as well. They're hands down one of the best progressive metalcore bands out there

[@FabulousKilljoy]

I have never heard anyone say “Polaris” that way before

[@ClikcerProductions]

Wait how have you heard people say it? Sounds normal to me?

[@FabulousKilljoy]

Clikcer Productions Po-lair-is. Nik said Puh-lahr-is

[@georgecassell5140]

@@FabulousKilljoy pol R is

[@ClikcerProductions]

@@FabulousKilljoy I've always heard it said Po-lar-is like Nik said, perhaps your way is an Americanized form? Since Im English and Nik is Canadian

Clikcer Productions Oh that makes sense

[@khronoz3611]

grettings from Chile nik!

[@hispanicwithaguitarwhy4118]

You should start a Best Sweep patterns or something along those lines series.

[@lordsteppergod7269]

The Amity Affliction has a new album coming out next month

[@tubadude07]

Vocals gave me an Everytime i Die vibe.

[@jamesgrenard]

150% recommend and going through their discovery. You won't be disappointed.

[@Antpw98]

Still no reaction to secrets - my mind myself and I?.. tragic!

[@jasonlovesmusicreacting882]

I feel like they've been slept on ever since leaving Rise and they only got better.

[@iowahawk9999]

Hell yeah. Secrets new single is sick.

[@taufiqsyayidmuhamad3902]

Soon

[@oceansatebrandon]

secrets is super underrated imo

[@pascalmaschl1026]

I saw them live in Vienna last December and they played that song.. nobody knew it before and damn it was banging even more live compared to the recording

[@oscarlopez7193]

I woke up hoping you react to that song, thank you.

[@letsroamaround2189]

Saw these guys live in 2017 with alazka and they where insane live

[@scottshepke669]

You should do a guitar cover of swim or only for the weak by in flames keep up the great work bro

[@gnol3656]

The song is defs made for live performances. Saw it live and its insane

[@BrettCahill]

Yeah masochistic is definitely the single you want for the singing, as some others have said. Very catchy and makes you appreciate the aggression of this song too

[@Jent1466]

Polaris opened for architects last year and they fucken killed it and hyped everyone up so much. (I also almost died as it was my first time in the pit) was dope and so was architects

[@Comanche.101]

Already best video in 2020

[@remingtonsalvatore9204]

Got to that breakdown and was thinking it sounded a lot like beartooth... and then he said it. Holy shit that track was insane! Wanna hear more of it.

[@a_hope_in_hell]

Because you talked about ryan sew, this song is actually almost completely the brainchild of Rick (their other guitarist) it brings some interesting change because they usually write all their songs together. Can’t wait for the album!

[@theax40]

So awesome. If you played this for me without saying who it is, my guess would be either Every Time I Die or "Define The Great Line" Underoath

[@iancampbell4438]

The Amity Affliction dropped a new song called "Soak Me in Bleach", you should check that one out next!

[@NikNocturnal]

Will try to check it tomo!

[@brandonsoto2160]

New amity just dropped this morning as well dude! It’s fucking killer you need to react

[@Mal3ficarum]

The vocals gave me a real Refused vibe :)

[@mattpinkerton6562]

Thing I love about this music video, the opening where Jamie is in front of the purple tunnel, every fucken Sydney Aussie knows where that is ahahah

[@oscartaylordrums]

New amity this morning

[@fromheartfeltplaces_4627]

Saw these guys at Elevation with Wage War on the Pressure tour - set was absolutely nuts. Their energy live is only matched by the bass that started the set, shaking the entire venue.

[@fromheartfeltplaces_4627]

As another note, they released a single just before this one, Masochist, and if you're looking for clean work, that's the one to check out!

[@rardner4054]

I would love for you to check out Alpha Wolf. They are going to be touring with Polaris soon and I can't wait to see the both of them

[@NvrLucky43]

Need to check out the new lost in separation track - Drowning

[@mathieugagne612]

Hey Nik! Silverstein has a new single! Let's Goooo

[@dugtheundead]

Why did I only recently discover Polaris? Holy shit what have I been missing

[@Foxywaterable]

Great treacle!

[@zeldablue7504]

The band Atlas has some great songs with unique cleans. I’ve just started listening to them so I can only recommend Uni and Veil

[@fatwarizkyandika9592]

Next The Remedy dude 🤘

[@emilebreseghello3175]

I'm not familiar with modern metal....but damn i loved that shit right here....man, i've got some things to explore!

[@davidpalosika9721]

Polaris the reason for all the fires in Australia lmao 🥵

[@niquio9026]

Too soon dude

[@mprior93]

Polaris, Northlane, Parkway Drive are all guilty then haha

[@_Louch_]

@@niquio9026 Way too soon🤣🤣🤣

[@LastingImpressionbenkawizx]

U should see them live... insane pit

[@pumpkinspicetrashbag]

This song has mad “define the great line” vibes.

[@Reece_Hart]

I can't help but laugh a little at the thought of some bloke at the end of the day casually going through the security footage of the train like every other day and coming across these lads going hard. They'd just be thinking "Wtf did I just walk into?"

[@Luissv72]

If you want his cleans, listen to Masochist (their last single). Also do a reaction 😂

[@nickh2517]

AYYYY

[@alexcoogan8275]

Bro!! Have a crack at these aussies ! I valliance - I am free The song surprised me soo hard.

[@charikayla8873]

I do have to say us Australians have a great range of metal 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@nime2322]

We need a cover of "the remedy" by Polaris

[@iprontube1917]

The new The Amity Affliction song (soak me ik bleach) is pretty dope!

[@TiltedHound]

I get a huge Cancer Bats feel off of this one! Nutty.

[@SicAmnesiac]

Strong Every Time I Die vibes.

[@Drummerbrah16]

Lost in Separation - Wasted Youth

[@jasons.9445]

My guy, I wonder how many people learn as much as I do just from watching your reviews.Anyways, thanks as always, your the man😎🤘 Check out murderer by impending doom. Oldie, but goodie

[@NikNocturnal]

Thanks for watching!

[@c4gob00m]

Fun fact, this song was predominantly written by Rick, the other guitarist. As a huge Polaris fan, this song blew my socks off because it's nothing like they've ever released before but is also inherently Polaris. Absolutely love the Beartooth vibes though, I wonder if they got inspiration after touring with them.

[@benarchist]

Mad every time I die vibes

[@rockxhero]

Give "the Grief & the Guilt" a go!

[@hauntedsmore]

lit

[@jhArmBREaker]

If you like this i would recommend Their songs L' Appel Du Vide and Voiceless, not as heavy but very good still

[@xxVIDSxxCREATORxx]

BURY TOMORROW - The Grey (VIXI) Please!!!!!!!! BANGER! Idk if you've reacted but it's a gem

[@PolarPainkiller]

Bro you gotta give Enochian a try. Absolutely nasty vocals and super bouncy riffs.

[@Ianmcdonuts]

You should react to their song "Masochist."

[@raku10000]

Hey Nik! It has some cleans, since you were looking for some. Pretty deep lyrics too.

[@popularmonster6508]

i have seen a lot of this videos, and he only reacts to new releases

[@nerlnerl6438]

Please!

[@davyszczepan]

Definitely should react to Masochist

[@mitchewing3831]

Please react to pray for rain by Polaris. One of my absolute favorites from them.

[@IRENE-il3oo]

MAN U NEED TO REACT TO POLARIS “ALL OF THIS IS FLEETING”

[@resid3ntwatson64]

So I really got into this band called dayseeker and seeing that they were comin on a tour less two hours from me two times within a month I decided to go to their show in Indiana and Kentucky they was on tour with like moths to flames and wage war but I had never heard of Polaris so I went to the show not knowing who they were what they sounded like but I was blown away both times, good music great energy A must see live

[@theherrderr]

Haha funny, because I'm pretty sure in the Hypermania music video the vocalist has a dayseeker shirt at the end

[@d1g1talbath]

Actually I really like that there are no cleans in this song. Check out the live version from Brisbane 08-08-2019 , with an 11 year kid in the first row.
