Northlane - Dante [Official Music Video]

[@itgetsdajobdone]

Obsidian and Alien were so epic... Northlane are at the top of their game right now, and I expect this chapter to be no different ❤

[@victorrumyantsev3718]

That's true - Northlake and Erra are on the top right now.

[@fourseven6202]

Id add Currents* to that list

[@JohnDoe-mv2be]

When I heard they went back to Will Putney I assumed they were gonna go back to their sound on Node or before but I'm glad that they kept the electronics they started sprinkling in since Mesmer.

[@Tashiro64]

@@JohnDoe-mv2be each time I listen to this song, the calm ending reminds me of Node a lot. we'll see when we'll get more of this upcoming album :)

[@Pragy]

@@JohnDoe-mv2be This song doesn't sound like a Putney mix at all! At least not the drums. But I'm not complaining. This is dope af. Also I frickin love Node. The sheer rawness of that mix gives me the chills.

[@ScandinavianDevil]

This really showcases Marcus' vocals, to be able to hit highs like that and also pull off the screams he does, what a gifted and skilled bloke. To me, this is almost like Sleepless and Clockwork had a baby. I am in love with this sound and I love the direction Northlane is taking with this. Bring on this EP.

[@broetchen1001]

I agree on everything you said

[@chrisfaurlin5731]

How are you sure this is an EP and not an LP?

[@ScandinavianDevil]

@@chrisfaurlin5731 Could may well be an LP as well. I'd obviously want it to be an LP. 😛😍

you wanna see some of his highs you should listen to birdsong by nyu. its not metal by any measure but his vocal performance on that song is insane

[@flamehaze59]

Don't forget Sleep Token

[@DEADPEDAL]

Northlane are quickly creating their own subgenre and I am super here for it. What an iconic sound.

[@venomau5speedz]

I’m affectionately dubbing it “Alien Metal” 🤷‍♂️ 😜😎❤️💙✌️

[@michaelpolynkin2842]

While I completely agree with that, I should still say that what they are doing since Alien is exactly what I was long waiting from a band named Sybreed.

[@rickosborne6521]

I realized that when I saw them last year on tour with alphawolf and fit for a king. They just have a sound that is so unmistakably northlane. No one else sounds like them. That was such a good show - we had gotten over a foot of snow in the previous 24 hours in SLC and basically the whole city was shut down - I was so worried they wouldn't be able to have the show but they did and it was amazing

[@DEADPEDAL]

I do miss Sybreed quite badly.@@michaelpolynkin2842

[@MidnightSky1821]

​@@michaelpolynkin2842I haven't listened to Sybreed in years. I've always felt they were more Fear Factory in sound. I wouldn't think they'd have gone this route sound wise either but that's based off fond memories of Sybreed.

[@MsRedbelly]

Did Marcus write the lyrics? He’s lost his stepfather, mother & recently his father. There’s so much pain in the imagery & words. I wish I could reach through the screen & hug him.

[@colinc508]

@@MsRedbelly I suspect Josh probably wrote the lyrics on this one. He was tight with the gutarist Ryan from Polaris who died last year. Not much came out on the cause of death, but with a history of struggling with depression and being 26 I suspect he took his life. It makes the lyric "Who's to decide what is right when your choice was cathartic?" make sense.

[@Charlie_RH9]

This band just doesn’t miss 10/10

[@toyotaecw]

Nic’s drumming carries this song. Fairly simple but fast and light. Shines through over the beeps and bloops.

[@Apemano]

This one will be like Echo Chamber. A bit more poppy, a bit more chorusy with lyric focus, but over time this will grow on you I think. Marcus really takes centre stage here. The drop is the vocals.

[@ryanlennon6269]

Definitely Echo Chamber style, but this is better 👌

[@WolfShi3ld]

not even remotely as eargrating as echo chamber

[@Mike-rg2dg]

Overtime? This song hit within the first 10 seconds haha

[@Dwesk]

Clockwork definitely grew on me, and I instantly liked Plenty but I still think Echo Chamber and Carbonized are relatively weak songs, both in terms of overall NL discography as well as in the context of the full Obsidian LP.

[@Wyndorel]

@@Dwesk Carbonized is absolutely raw and powerful, I wouldn't imagine someone thinking of it as weak. ^^'

[@kaitlynrebeccakay]

Northlane is one of my favorite bands. Everything they create is ethereal and euphoric. I feel like I've been ascended into another dimension. Absolutely sick, you guys never fail to amaze me. Keep rocking it! 🤟🏻🖤

[@hybrid.but.human.official]

Was going to say exactly the same thing myself.... There's no way Marcus hasn't had an NDE or something, and he isn't the only one, idk.... but, they are unique and ethereal sounding. "Nova" might be one of my favorite songs of all time, from any artist. It's the closest song I've felt compared to an NDE (I had back at the end of 2020). They're something else.

[@AlexHefner]

this band is MASSIVELY underrated

[@Drewlinskii]

Im getting Node (vocals) + post-Alien (instrumentals) vibes from this one. The chorus is HUGE and Marcus' voice is so incredibly beautiful on this track. I've always LOVED the softer songs like Weightless, Sleepless, and Node and the ending here gave me goosebumps. I already can't wait for the stripped down version of this song.

[@drakezimmerman4054]

Same!!!! To everything you said! 😂.

[@gSWG3R]

Yeah, Northlane own this genre, this is theirs. What an incredible song, that chorus is just euphoric. ❤

Silent Planet and Northlane duking it out to see who can make Ambient RaveCore more fun.

[@saossurvive]

Trilogy is a great fucking song dude! I gotta say though, Northlane in my opinion is a greater band all around. Australian metal bands are killing it these days. Much better than American ones anymore… they lost their touch. For now, anyway.

[@aaronpanesar]

Northlane wins on the fun count. Echo Chamber and Dante are 2 of the most enjoyable songs to dance to.

[@Gunplay224]

Big 4D vibes

[@obsidialien]

Northlane, this is not just a band, for me, Northlane, this is an inspiration and a stimulus, their music is better than any psychotherapy, all my inner experiences and childhood traumas resonate in the texts of Marcus, when I listen their music, I feel everything the same, what Markus sings about, Drug addiction in the family, poverty, lack of reference points and authorities, how close it all is to me, and words cannot describe the love that I feel for these guys ❤

[@daltonevans3412]

Bloodlines is still one of the most painful yet cathartic songs i've ever heard. Up there with hell finds you everywhere by thousand below ft noah sebastian, and broken by alleviate. The song is word for word a representation of my childhood but even more than that the video is a shockingly faithful/accurate visual depiction of my childhood home and the environment/conditions i lived in and the family dynamic except that it wasn't just my dad who was abusive and an addict, it was my mom, dad and older brother who were all addicted to the same substance and all abused me in different ways. My dad beat me, my mom emotionally and mentally tormented me as well as physically torturing me (examples include burning my hand on a hot stove element as punishment, whipping me with belts and straightened out metal clothes hangers until i bled, my back still to this day is scarred to shit and legitimately looks like a recreation of some of those photos of slaves backs) and my older brother mentally tormented me as well as beat, cut and burned me and he also sexually abused me for years, sometimes every day for multiple days on end. That song really helps me when i'm struggling with the memories and emotions.

[@cameronniven4656]

Fuck yeah

[@obsidialien]

@@daltonevans3412 I'm really sorry for you, I can't even imagine how your mind coped with all of that. My father is a heroin addict, and for me, the music videos for "bloodline" and "eclipse" represent visuals of my childhood. Their music really helps me deal with suppressed aggression and dark emotions, especially now, when there's war in my country after the explosions; I find solace in their music.

LoL this is garbage. This wasn’t heavy at all. Sounds like run of the mill garbage club music. Northlane is shit now. Their last album was terrible!!! And this is even worse. 🤣

[@peterdavignon9837]

They can never do no wrong in my eyes. Everything they put out is massive. Jon recently stated while writing Obsidian that he’s moved into a writing path that focuses more on rhythm and the overall nature of the beat of a song. The core of the composition that you feel in your chest, and I have never been more here for it.

​@hyperboreandesolation Proggy and technical riffs, grooves and melodies aren't the only things that can make a song great. Northlane are one of the few bands that can go "been there, done that," because they constantly push the envelope. The funny thing is, this song still has proggy elements to it during the intro, and post-chorus sections.

I’ve seen some negative comments in regards to this drop. I don’t understand the disappointment. You have to listen to this a few times over-it’s really good. I’m a guy who prefers the screaming in “metal,” but this song IS hard.. and when you can sing like Marcus, I can’t blame you for singing. Listen to my man. That range is crazy.
