Did I hypnotise?
We could disappear into the night
But your obsession keeps my secrets well intact
Your aggression feels so heavenly
But let me say
I sonder them all
“But you”
A portrait of a lady on fire in my head
I’ll surrender and crawl
Even if it breaks me
Just say that you will never leave
Because we’re meant to be tonight
Your beauty feels like suffering
I’ll take it all
Cause what we do in the dark has got me thinking
I’m with you
In my head
Your devotion makes your bullets feel so real
“You won’t pierce my shield”
Let’s make a deal, no?
“You won’t make me yield”
“No not anymore”
So I keep you draped in a silver light
I know this double exposures got me composed in a petty fit
Contact, contact
Open up
You wanna know?
Vertigo I’ll stay obsessed
I’ll slaughter them
“But you”
A portrait of a lady on fire in my head
I’ll surrender and crawl
Even if it breaks me
Just say that you will
Never leave cause we’re heavenly

This song was fantastic. I really hope there’s an album because they are just expanding on the sound of the last album and it sounds great.

[@jaydenludewig7401]

W pfp. 100% agree

[@WarmFizzyMilk]

it’s kinda strange there’s no whisperings of a bigger project in the works but perhaps they’re doing what BMTH said they were gonna do and focus more on singles to release as and when they’re ready instead of committing to a full album cycle

[@toyotaecw]

Until they undo all the filters or processing on Jacob’s vocals it’s a hard pass. He has a good voice that flies under the radar and it doesn’t do it justice with all the production on it. I get it’s a stylistic choice but I just can’t.

[@lipsontajgordongrunk4328]

AFAIK they are going to make an album it’s just not finished yet.

[@ArkhamJacks]

It's just 2 songs I'm sure. The studio they recorded these with made a post talking about how back in august they worked with thornhill on 2 songs. This and viper room

[@SpiritAudioRecording]

The art direction on this album is so insane. Love to see the Heroine era of artfulness expanded upon.

[@richard6200]

by listening to the live version recorded by moshpit, this song got all the elements of the old and new thornhill

[@camdenwyeth316]

@@sarcasm4371 While I generally agree the guitar melody at 2:07 is reminiscent of their older works

[@richard6200]

​@@sarcasm4371​ the word is "some" some elements of the song that reminisce their old works even the screams have quite similarity from the songs in butterfly even the chorus have flashes of the EP & TDP and you just cant tell people to stop comparing their new and old music as if thats a bad thing especially with these new songs that have flashbacks from it 😂

[@sympathyforthedevil1553]

The band themselves had this to say about the track; “‘Obsession‘ focuses on a narcissistic inner monologue, insistent on having what they want. Oozing lies and pleas at the distress of an old lover, they project their desires at the cost of their own ‘life.'”

[@arun09345]

Bros found the balance & killed it 🔥🔥

[@NaziManiac]

Absolutely agree

[@sageemerald7685]

This feels like an incredible mix of their older and newer style combined! Like a Blend between Butterfly and Heroine

[@peeza97]

So is the dark water tub in the room a literal reference to how Thornhill feels trapped and stuck with their first album’s success? Jacob smashing and breaking it is a statement that they’re moving away from that?

[@geraltoftexas7631]

Probably. Just hope they don’t go full Architects and just do it out of spite

[@MyNamelsShady]

I really hope they keep up the screaming. Jacob has such a great screaming voice. it’s a tragedy how little he screamed in heroine. I still love that album. Hopefully they keep up the vibe good shit 🤘

[@SwainixFPV]

I get crazy vibes from the atmosphere in dark pool so I was hoping for that, but I need to give the song more listens, liked the end a lot already

[@RemixBloke]

Jacob said this next album is their heaviest yet so theres hope

its pretty bad ass. this new sound they have has grown massively on me

[@Kideem]

Finally, someone who has grown into their new sound rather than not excepting that they changed and complaining about it lol

[@sc9b]

It’s reminding me a lot of butterfly and some of their old old stuff. But more evolved. And I’m all for it

[@Randoneering]

I wish I could smash the thumbs up on the comment more. I couldn't agree more. I was not a huge fan when the newer album came out...then I grew to appreciate them. Now I cannot unhear them. The chunky ass riffs, the snare, the groove...so good.

[@AnimosityIncarnate]

​@@Kideem Two different concepts here. Fear of change which should be shot down. Inconsistent growth. Adaptive or experimental music is not the same as just taking generic or popular trends and injecting them for the sake of it 😂 even if they sound good. People make new bands for this purpose, the older bands being used as a injected persona for easy clout is part of the issue, it's too disjointed. Bad omens did it well, now prepare for a bunch of bands to follow suit whos last release was blackened grindcore slam 😂

Aside from the vaguely similar ending to diamond eyes, i really wish yall would stop making this comparison, it doesnt even really sound much like deftones, go to deftones and talk about deftones. Come here to talk about THORNHILL .,

[@SinfulSoulBand]

sounds more like loathe than anything... Lol stop wave chasing

[@TheActionCobblestone]

@@SinfulSoulBand Vocals sound exactly like he’s trying to rip off Chino. I’m an old school deftones fan and it’s the first thing I thought. Cant blame people for stating the obvious.

[@SinfulSoulBand]

@@TheActionCobblestone I am an old school deftones fan. youre lying. this sounds nothing like chino and youre just trying to relate it to the closest thing you can thats familiar to you. chino doesnt even sing like this lol youre bugging. cant blame me for stating the obvious, stop reahcing.

[@SinfulSoulBand]

@@TheActionCobblestone listen to more music and youll quickly see that this view is just another echo chamber, another wave you are riding inwhich you stick a label on to the closest thing you can think of. this superemely sounds way more like loathe than deftones and if you cant hear that you probably arent a musician either.... consider what im saying with an open mind. i admitted it reminds vulgar people (non complex) of deftones. because your brains are echo chambers that only relate what you know. if you were more musicallly experienced like myself you would see that this is noooothing like deftones. chino sings in differnet range, and a different note style, shooting up and down in different otaves. this dude literally sang like the begees for 3 seconds then stayed in the same octave the rest... something chino never does... you clearly dont understand on this level if thats all you could muster up, a response that you thought other people would like and cater to so you could feel right. you should use your actual brain bro. People like me can see you for what you are and your self denial is why tht you replied to me in the first place, because i offended you. offense comes from frustraion which is rooted in anger. anger is rooted in anxiety and fear. the truth scares all of you and its kinda cute watching you all self combust and pretend youre incapable of understanding my responses... go on.. give me what ever vulgar and simple response you have, you arent attracted to intellect.
