A Fuckin' amazing band from da Lowlandz. All over the world ppl love this band , Back here , , , Textures !? huh!? waddaya mean!? whatkinda band!? from Holland!? never heard of 'm . . pfff... thats typical Dutch
it's 4/4 but they play quintuplets (google translation, don´t know if it´s right :D ) for every quarter note until 2:47 where the quintuplets are played like eighth notes in the new tempo ..
i wish they had a instrumental album, their guitar work is some of the most epic stuff i've heard, but personally i can't stand the vocalist to point that i don't want to listen to the music as whole
Okay...after hearing this, I have now finished listening to this album in chronological order...and it marks the first time I have ever heard ANYTHING by Textures.
This is deffinately one of my all time fav songs to work out too,puts your mind into meditation&brings a very deep level of strength within feeling! I love Textures!!
Fuck. How did I never come across this band? I'm a Brutal Deathmetal guy, but this is great. Not remotely Meshuggah-grade, but the ambiance and progressiveness is what I've been looking for. I hate the vocals and high-pitched tuning, as well as the stupid popmetal riffs, but I may have found another band to add to my Experimental collection.
I don't even think it's right for those two to compete. I'd like to think of it as Tool sharing a huge podium of win alongside Textures, Animals As Leaders, etc.
Now wouldn't it be fucking amazing if the two bands got together for a jam session? I know Maynard would make people jizz with his clean vocals, and their new vocalist would blow people away with his screams, being kept together by Adam Jones' rhythmic...fuck I can't keep up...too awesome to continue...
@Ethanodd1 Hell, Maynard makes people jizz with all of his vocals. His screams are just as beautiful as his singing. Tool and Textures collaborating to do a djent version of Aenima would be purely amazing.
I'd say most of the musicians producing real and true music are down to earth and just happy that they are able to make a living doing what they love the most.
@dougie159753 polyrhythms wouldn't mean anything if they didn't actually orchestrate good music. Being deliberately over-complex doesn't make a band good, tasteful composition does.
This is the Shiiiiiiz!
