Volumes - NEW - The Columbian Faction (Pre-Production)

[Hifcrea]

due to the amount of times i played this song up to the point of my navy seal training it has become the song of my life. the pre production version is SOOOO much better then the album version and i can say with confidence being that im 17 now that i will be hearing this song til the day i die. fuckin gold

[xunearthhxcx]

i enjoy this version much more than the actual album version.

[ryryrulezd00d]

Does anyone know who does clean vocals?

[TrisVector]

@ryryrulezd00d Michael Barr (other singer)

[jthemagicdragon]

i wanna learn how to scream /: does anyone have any tips?

[Kalupz]

[fromtheoceanwerise1]

[unfathomedband]

If this song was a donut, it would be a good donut.

[centeredhardcore]

@unfathomedband i like donuts

[AmbitionsOfMan]

@unfathomedband lol classic

[samthehero]

Thumbs up if you like Mike's cleans on this version more than DJ's on the new one!

Hoping its not just me haha, even though the new version still slays.

[IxH8xYou]

this pre prod. was released on my birthday... sick :)

[appleseed1000]

i just djent djent djizzed my pants

[ParkwayFAN1995]

LOL @ "WTF is djent"

[konsco]

@ParkwayFAN1995 It's an aztec two-step

[ParkwayFAN1995]

@konsco Wasn't a serious question d00d.

[kupfiXbutter]

@ParkwayFAN1995 and.. what is it?

[justifiedbydeath]

@ParkwayFAN1995 Not all fans of this music will know everything, particularly occasional listeners and casual fans. However, if it weren't for the thousands of casual fans of your favorite bands, they wouldn't exist. So, go ahead and make fun of them, just remember that they help keep your favorite bands afloat.

[soccerdevil1995]

like times 1000

[sLObZenOnMyNObzen]

Via is going to be the next brown note.omg can't wait!

[piltafboy]

wtf is djent?! and this band is amazing haha

[TheTyrynir]

@piltafboy Djent originated as the description of the sound of a heavy palm muted chord but has become a sub genre of heavy metal that uses odd time signatures and syncopation.... wait....... WIKIPEDIA IT! And search BULB/PERIPHERY, MESHUGGAH(credited with founding Djent) And that should be a good start.

[piltafboy]

@TheTyrynir haha alright thanks

[fluffycy]

@TheTyrynir you got everything you JUST said in wikipedia....should have just finished the last sentence, but hey good effort trying to sound smart bud.

[TheTyrynir]

@fluffycy Ehhh i did it not to sound smart but not to screw it up and confuse him thats why i said try wikipedia. CREDIT GIVEN TO WIKIPEDIA. derp

[armedwithnothing]

@fluffycy Yeah, he didn't deny he Wiki'd it. He was just trying to be helpful. But hey, good effort trying to sound like a douche.

[FINGEREDCLOTHING]

Too stoked on the new album. Come to my page and listen to their brand new song "Edge Of The Earth" y'all

[uncleduncle1]

your loyalty means nothing to me!

[UnknownBlindfire]

A vision of a place that we call home.

[theforkisonthetable]

I AM VERY INFORMED ABOUT MUSIC. THIS BAND IS TERRIBLE BECAUSE I HAVE A FANCY WORD I LEARNT TO CATEGORIZE THEM IN MY TINY LITTLE HEAD.

ill be honest. i heard volumes before periphery. they were called groove metal on their myspace. thats how i considered it. its rhythmic metal.

i know meshuggah and periphery and mnemic and sikth and tool were all around before these guys. i fucking know this.

but i heard volumes prolly 3 years ago, and i THEN began my djent journey.

i hate opinions lol

[jradical420]

1:09 i really dig this cadence. 3:09 i think this riff uses the brown note a few times, judging by my reaction and themclovinkid's post.

cool sound. now i'm glad i discovered the band Volumes

[xXDxYx74Xx]

Best djent band ever.

[Dissimulatex]

@xXDxYx74Xx Don't know about ever, but they are definitely up there. Especially when Via drops. But right know Vildhjarta is stealing the show, everyone's pissing their pants waiting for Irreversible.

[Sprawl1978]

Djent



[Ars0nist87]

love the band... i have always heard little melodic vocals in my head when listening to them and now its literally perfect... keep it up with the vocals

[pearstrike]

my dog's balls grew back after I made him listen to this.

[Zaukkoo]

at last a new song ! and as much i expected from volumes, this blew my mind ! <3 volumes has so much potential they should be way more popular !

[Ctanz12]

That chorus literally gave me chills.

[faqu2ful]

def a Meshugah influence but cool none the less \m/

[EnvisionsMetal]

Saw this live! Soooo sick.

[metalheadmothafucka]

have sex with the like botton :)

[SethCheeb69]

this band is one of the cleanest djent bands i've ever heard

[samisgay09]

Their sooo amasing live!!

[ragekage209]

I love it except for the clean vocals, but they're not bad so I can deal with them for the rest of this amazing music.

[digitalshadow17]

careful not to slip on the cum I spwewed everywhere

[drummingbomb]

This four minutes and twenty-eight seconds was so good, I had to spell it out!

[hightension01]

im still so stoked that i got to play with these guys

[xZombieZacx]

@samthehero thanks for letting me no bruh.

[ThyArtIsVeryMetal]

missed them on slaughter survivors....fuck

[drummingbomb]

i guess these guys play on 7 strings also?

[empyreusmusic]

@drummingbomb Yeah, but they tune it differently. I can't remember exactly, but I think its something like instead of tuning the B to a 3rd of the G, they tune the G a 3rd of the D and the B string gets tuned to a 4th of the G.

[AlMachineKTC]

@empyreusmusic Nope, they tune Drop A : A E A D G B E

[empyreusmusic]

@AlMachineKTC Are you sure? I've talked to Robby from TC and he played quite a few shows with them as a fill in guitarist and he told me it was something weird like what i said.

[AlMachineKTC]

@empyreusmusic Well, I haven't talked to them since I'm from Chile, lol. But I've learned Intake in drop A. I might be wrong, since this bands are known of using unusual tunings. Anyways, is you get to know the real tuning let me know. ;)

[HolyCheezitsDan]

@AlMachineKTC Intake is Drop A, saw them play it live and his fingerings were accurate to a tab I saw written in drop A.

[CarllelRs]

@HolyCheezitsDan Hey i wrote that tab :P yeah they're in drop A on 7 strings but i didn't realize at the time they actually tune their 7s like a 6 string in dropped A with an extra high string (AEADF#BE). I think this is in drop G now not sure. Hope that helps anyone who reads this.

[horhaymalone22]

@HolyCheezitsDan if they played it in a different tuning it was still be the exact same way to play it lol

[mrwprod]

@HolyCheezitsDan Yeah intake is played in drop A with the G string tuned down to F#.

[xZombieZacx]

when is the full album coming out?!!!!

[samthehero]

@xZombieZacx October



[bocheezy]

FUCKING AWESOME.. I came in my pants within the first 10 sec.

[CarllelRs]

@BrutalMachine42 It says Faction on their fb page.

[TheMclovinKid]

I took a crap while listening to this song

It was the best crap ever

[makingnoise123]

@TheMclovinKid dude same here xD

[OrganicPumpkinSeeds]

@TheMclovinKid haha wtf, me too.

[hunckle]

When 1:37 comes in, i feel really attractive. Is that wierd?

[ed1rko17]

@hunckle a little bit

[WTFuneral]

@BrutalMachine42 um no it isnt

[frankthebunny89]

This song is so epic! especially since im in to the whole goverment conspiracy thing. You guys are fucking amazing! The clean vocals are beautiful!

[radiactivepotatoes]

Love the part when the melody kicks in at 1:37

[StellarReality]

Fucking Phenomenal!

[tylersnail09]

come to ny and tour with tony danza tap dance extravaganza, veil of maya, scale the summit, animals as leaders, periphery.....best show ever? would kill to see you guys live

[LostCallProductions]

@tylersnail09 I would shit my pants if Volumes toured with them.

[PinealGlandInfinity]

this band is the fucking shit

[Cairnivore]

one part reminds me of JFC - the acacia strain :P but this song is sicker :)

[Dakattck444]

Sounds just as good as, if not even better than, the EP, I love it.

[Jaco979]

This is the greatest thing I have ever heard. I hear a mix between meshuggah and the acacia strain.

[Light2TheFlies08]

Ok, I've been listening to this song for like 2 hours straight right now. Can we please get the full length soon? It's driving me crazy. On the plus side, going to see these guys for the 2nd time Saturday, fucking pumped!

[dylsk84life1]

volumes if you want my opinion you need to get out to chicago ill ASAP

[PinealGlandInfinity]

$.

[PinealGlandInfinity]

flams ghost notes

[Jasaxos]

AWESOME

[thebeastlybaker]

GROOVY! (In Earthworm Jim's voice)

[PinealGlandInfinity]

[PinealGlandInfinity]

TEMPLE

[PinealGlandInfinity]

YES

[UnholyMessiah555]

Oh man the clean vocals are nice

[blackboxskater1]

i freakin love the singing

[benxjamin]

Unbelievable, volumes gets me every time, breakdown @ 1:30 is haunting

[WTFuneral]

oh my fucking god fuck yes

[Slingsby123]

Ill check out any band signed to mediaskare records.

Seeing as they've got Blind Witness on their label which is like my favorite band.

[codyblasts]

this sounds a LOT like minus the herd era ion dissonance

[mkstreets]

sorry but i dont like the cleans.. i dunno..

[baker1226]

the two people that disliked this song, are obviously gay

[Misterwonky7]

God i love this band! really liked the clean vocals in this too :D

[bos1514]

so question, WHO is doing the cleans????

[Swordofeyes1]

@bos1514

michael does the cleans ;)

[Bt2BreakSkn]

Fucking EPIC track.

[MrCeebez]

NOOOOOOO!!!! I liked this band because The Concept of Dreaming DIDN'T have clean vocals.... sad day.

[condemnedTV]

check out aristeia some sick music deathjent

[guitarjo1234]

If you think meshuggah is terrible? You have some really good weed you're smoking. Meshuggah was doing this style in the 80's before anyone even knew what "djent" was. Have some respect faggot.

[HxCPantsParty]

@guitarjo1234 - just cuz they were first doesnt mean they are the best.

[guitarjo1234]

And also if anyone should get credit for "pioneering" djent and the term djent. It should be meshuggah

[guitarjo1234]

@avlkush-periphery didn't pioneer "djent". The guitarist from meshuggah was the one whome even created the term "djent" when he was referring to his guitar tone. "It just sounds djenty". Get your facts straight before you try and lecture someone lol.

And what does it matter what category someone puts a band in even if its wrong? Whose to decide what's what? If the person likes the bands music, the message they're trying to get accross, that's all that matters

[avlkush]

@guitarjo1234 i meant that that very few people had ever heard the word djent before bulb and periphery. of course i kno that meshuggah came up with the term. my facts are straight, but personally, it doesnt matter because meshuggah is fucking terrible anyway. most bands, however, would agree that constantly over-categorizing music, and subgenres upon subgenres is fucking lame, and should be discouraged

[drksideofthemn5]

they sound like volumes, not fucking djent

[drksideofthemn5]

i hate the term djent

[TheCompulsionToKill]

YES THEY FINALLY ADDED CLEAN VOX THANK THE MAKER!!!!

[TheCornKings]

fucking heavy . just how i like it :)

[YouKnowItMang]

wow I need this CD. Dayum @3:10

[disfigured75]

The part starting at 1:09 sounds like Meshuggah... Fuck yea \m/

[MegaSteveo44]

The only video I have uploaded is a DBZ one I made with TDWP for the music. They aren't my favorite band but the lyrics matched what I was going for. Volumes is pretty epic I'm excited to see the Djent sound evolve!

[LostCallProductions]

holy shit.

anyone else not hear the cleans coming?

[HoRizoN2797]

its pronounced as "JENT"

[9000Luke]

this is my favorite breakdown of 2011

[anasasisxenophontis]

road trip + volumes = fuck yes.

[Manoffire959]

I dont get why no body lieks the cleans. They cleans are amazing in this track. i Hope theres more in the album.

[MrDblaze420]

trust me you guys threw it down in denver, you better come back bro. i got mad respect for volumes so get the fuck UP!! one love, this breakdown was well done

[volumesband]

Thanks for all the support dudes ! Your opinions do not go unheard!

[blackboxskater1]

@volumesband the singing is amazing

[xCHICAGOSFINESTx]

@volumesband I heard your guys for the first time for like a month ago. I can't stop listening to your music!

Love it, really, love it!

[makingnoise123]

@volumesband not trying to be a pain in the ass guys but you guys have any release date or any ideia of when you expecting to put the album out...shit is to awesome to wait xD,by the way nice toutch on the clean vocals,really give a new shine to the music =)

[Manoffire959]

@volumesband I dont care what anybody says. your guys's clean vocals are amazing and i hope to hear more soon. 

[avlkush]

also, the guy who picked out the woodrow wilson reference is possibly one of the very few intelligent people who commented on here

[avlkush]

3 things to say:

1. if you like dragonball z, ur listening to the wrong type of metal. go listen to in flames or dragonforce or something haha

2. djent is a guitar sound, not a music genre. (this would be according to Bulb who pioneered the shit)

3. the reason why a lot of people who like heavy music dont like clean vocals is because they're usually really lame and effeminate. in this case, they're ok, but im sad to see volumes take this direction.

[AoDBliss]

@avlkush I like dragonball z. I like volumes. =P

[rot105and]

i totally like the clean vocals in there!

[Kirbster10]

So funkin guuuuuuuuuuddddddd

[99mag3r99]

Why do people hate clean vocals in metal? It's awesome when it's done right, just go listen to The Faceless or Opeth.

[NicholasRundell]

Woah..the screams sound so different. lol

[PugMx]

get this clean vocal shit out of here. i hope ther ewhole album isnt like this

[D0cH0llyw00d]

@PugMx u mad?

[PugMx]

@D0cH0llyw00d

woah bro you're bad. im stating that i dont like that style for volumes.

so quit trying to start shit on youtube you ugly skinny bitch ahahahahaha

Mumford and sons? really? LOL

[D0cH0llyw00d]

@PugMx Lmao. I typed 4 lettters.

Obviously u mad. The obviousness can be found "you ugly skinny bitch ahahahahaha

Mumford and sons? really? LOL" <-------- There.

Someoneisjelly.jpg

[PugMx]

@D0cH0llyw00d

im not mad i just think its funny how you wanna be a hard ass and start shit on YOUTUBE

[D0cH0llyw00d]

@PugMx Lolwut, when did I try to be a hardass?

Here, I've got an idea: How about from now on when you come here to respond to me you just listen to this song instead and get all your frustrations out that way. I mean, I think we can both agree that it's a good fucking song so stop looking for reasons to argue and start looking for reasons to shut the fuck up.

[itscalledfutbol16]

@D0cH0llyw00d

hahahahahaha

[wholewheat1]

my band opened up a show for volumes not too long ago, they were so sick. if you have a chance to see them, GO TO IT.

[Manoffire959]

the clean vocals give me goosbumps.

[0wN]

Wishing for this line-up : Volumes, Structures, Counterparts, Atlas ! Thumbs up if you agree !

[ABRMetalHead]

@0wN they're playing with Conducting From The Grave, The Contortionist, Scale The Summit, Rings of Saturn, and Structures on the Slaughter Survivors tour.

[WiThInStAtIc123]

@ABRMetalHead i am playin one of the tour dates.... i am fuckin pumped

[danieldance123]

@0wN YOU HAVE FANTASTIC TASTE IN MUSIC...... atlas <3

[JonathanEA100]

saw them on sunday, they said the full length should be out in the fall

[adamsdrums14]

this shit is fucking sick...lol avlkush



[BROimREALtalk]

Djent =\= genre of music

[SeanStephensen]

@BROimREALtalk while the original meaning of djent was a guitar sound, it is infact now a genre of music (more specifically, a subgenre of metal). While it is not an official genre on wikipedia, it is becoming recognized in the metal community as a genre. it was misinterpreted, its original meaning has become skewed and lots of the djent genre doesn't use djent guitar, however it has taken on a new second meaning whether you like to admit it or not. I dont support it but it's the truth.

[ThePhobophile]

@SeanStephensen Djent does actually have its own Wikipedia page now lol.

[JonathanGravesDrums]

@BROimREALtalk how do you pronounce Djent? Ive seen it everywhere.

[BMTHization]

@JonathanGravesDrums the 'D' is silent

[9000Luke]

@JonathanGravesDrums like gent

[markbrochilll]

@JonathanGravesDrums Everyone I know pronounces it as Dijent.

"Djent" is supposed to be an onomonopia.

[BROimREALtalk]

@JonathanGravesDrums Like "jent"

[ShadesOfWithin]

Hell yea new Volumes!!

[SCATinZEhat]

DBZ was the shit.... when i was 12...

[theforkisonthetable]

CAN EVERYONE PLEASE JUST STOP ACTING LIKE THEY KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT DJENT, GROOVY, DEATHCORE, OR WHATEVER IN THE BLUE FUCK YOU CHOOSE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT.

none of your opinions fucking matter. none of your labels matter either. you're all just overopinionated little shit kickers hiding behind a keyboard talking shit.

"djent is a sound"

"djent is meshuggah"

"djent is THIS"

"DJENT IS THAT"

WHO FUCKING CARES. IVE HAD THIS DEBATE ABOUT METALCORE AND DEATHCORE ALREADY THIS PAST DECADE. SHUT UP!

[Scarbak123]

@theforkisonthetable agreed

DJENT MOTHERFUCKER!

[CaptureAndEmbrace]

@theforkisonthetable Ladies and Djentlemen, Suck my djenitals.

[HoRizoN2797]

i honestly think these guys are way better than periphery! especially at playing djent
