To me, this just shows exactly how amazing this band is. The fact that they can pretty much do whatever they want to with their music and not really lose anything in the process is incredible. I agree with past comments I've seen, they really are the most underrated band I've ever heard.
Honestly? This song made me cringe. Its a far cry from the explosive creativity of Beyond Reasonable Doubt. I guess its cool that they didn't stop making music & its especially awesome that some alignment of stars brought on their former albums... but for me, this just isn't Candiria.
Granted, this song and video are a bit underwhelming, if not outright lame. But it's still Candiria cousin. This band, in all of its incarnations, rocks harder, deeper, broader, and smarter than any contemporaries i can think of. Maybe Horse The Band, Look What I Did, or Foxy Shazam.
@trippy0420 Uhh, read properly please. I was just mentioning how I love all the bands listed in TheMaestro40's comment. All the bands listed have a very individual sound.
So much wisdom in this song. Makes me sad for all the sleepers. A new galactic day is on the horizon.Wake up your friends/family/whoever you care about. The time is now.
You people who are knocking this song should reconsider. The message is pure and untainted and if they can get it out to more people, the better off we will all be.
i used to do a zine in the early 90's (90-91)they would send flyers to me for the demo they had out at the time.these dude were around for a long time so this is ok with me
Actually, Candirias old stuff isnt all heavy, the main reason why this band is so incredible, is the range they have, jazz, hip-hop, hardcore, metal...they do a little bit of almost everything...just limiting them to heavy, is sacrilegious. Oh and POD? comn' now candiria paved the way for bands like that, POD can never dream of being this good.....
To compare Candiria to POD and Skindred is an insult to Candiria. Go listen to some of their old shit and you'll know how ridiculous you sound. PS....POD SUCKS ASS
well disturbed and godsmack isnt really metal, so i guess you dont like other singers because youre racist and you listen to shitty music, save candiria and deftones apparently.
lol i love how people talk shit about a band maturing. if you dont like there new shit. just leave it at that and shut the fuck up. Do you think Candiria cares if you think this song is shit?
This is the first "technical" metal band I ever heard in high school and it's sad to see they're playing this crap now. I mean, it's good for what it is. But nothing like the extreme brutalness of the old albums. :(
I bought 300 Hundred Percent Density and tohught it was okay, but I was disappointed that you could barely hear the bass in most of the songs. I am a big bass fan, and Ithought this band would glorify the instrument, but they really didn't... at least not on that album.
exactly!! im like what happened to candiria, i want to hear some faction, some temple of sickness. i miss the old Carley Coma. we all know he can sing hes black, but that ferocious scream that deep growl. that's what i want! bring back the old skool candiria bring back Kennith Shalk. there's no better drummer alive!!!
their older stuff was pretty solid, what doesn't kill you is pretty hit or miss. i still listen to them either way their. the diversity is always interesting.
I never paid close attention to candiria but i've always thought 300 percent density was one of the best albums out. this song sounds really watered down and not as original. It's still good, just not what I thought Candiria was.
Yes, it's commercial, but a great song... plus, Candiria is capable of so much more. I bet their next album will take it back to the roots of their style. They are my favorite band ever, up there with Meshuggah. Genious Musicians...
Actually, Candiria is still together (Michael and Kenneth left), but I don't think that they'll be releasing anything new anytime soon. Although according to their myspace page, they are releasing an album with songs that didn't make it onto other albums along with some other stuff.
No, you're stating the facts as you wish they were, not as they actually are.
Here's a hint. I have a slightly more personal connection to Candiria than you would think. My husband? Yeah, his sister is Carly's girl. I do, in fact, know WTF I am talking about.
Even if they were still together it just wouldn't be 'Candiria' without Kenneth and Eric. I'd still like to hear "Kiss The Lie" eventually and look forward to any project put forth by any member. Not just a kickass band but kickass people as well.
The song in itself isn't bad but the fact that it's Candiria and being familiar with there earlier work it's kinda disappointing to me. They've been put into a mold that was cast many years ago and I hate to say it, but they've become generic. If I heard this on the radio without any clue as to who it was I'm sure Candiria would be the furthest from my mind. But hey, they got to pay bills to I guess, so alot of the good independent bands have to go this route.
they are good stop picking at them!!!sure its not like blood or any other songs they have done but they tried something new and you should be glad for that!!at least one band change style
well i dont agree with you, i think its tobad that they made this song but he what can i do about it:P, but you sad : AT LEAST ONE BAND CHANGE STYLE .... < thats no true 100000 of Greaat hard metal bands etc. are turning in to fucking puss.. Correct me if im wrong :) Cheers
Yes I have, I like all the songs on "What Doesn't Kill You" and "300 Percent Density", along with older songs like "Mathematics", "Work In Progress", "Red Eye Flight", "Faction", "Paradigm Shift", etc...
VERY,VERY,VERY far from pop. Actually their style could be defined a cross-over of metalcore and jazz. Actually this song is from their most commercial album, all their other productions are a lot different. Try listen "Costant Velocity is as natural as being at rest" for example.
They make one song like this and people have to say that its the end of the band. Just because they do one song that sounds softer, doesn't mean that every song on their album or every song in the future is going to sound exactly like this. Its not a bad sound; its just something different
you fuckin guys suck, really, go to hell just enjoy music in different syles and be free, listen to Meshuggah, Hacride, and many others, jazz, funk, blues, just be yourselfs hijos de puta!!!
I've been listening to this band for the last 12 years. This song is amazing! they do this style of music, better than most bands who make a living playing this style. Goes to show you how talented this guys are.
Seriously, Carly & the boys have been at this for over a decade-
I saw them live in a small venue w/ about 125 people years before this album dropped-
That show is & prolly always will be one of the best live music performances IVE EVER WITNESSED!
Candiria is not only trend setting in its own right but also proven themselves to the world that they can make nearly any style of music appealing & beautiful/angry/groovy/urban/catchy/etcetc
Show respect where it is due, & know they have no bounds
To the people that comment about how bad this sucks or whatever just remember. Candiria IS & always will be ART. I think this tune & the album that its on is damn near brilliant &(a great WAY TO MAKE MONEY b/c they are a band & they have to eat right-RIGHT?!)!
SO, maybe they cant sell a lot of their old stuff & maybe they took a risk here & tried to appeal to a broader audience...! Where is the harm in not only doing something they have never done before & make some money WHICH THEY DESERVE!:P
Wow. Candiria went from a band that sounds like no other band in the world, to being a band that sounds like a thousand other bands. lame fucking shit.
Look people, Candiria has been setting trends in progressive & modern metal for over a decade.They are a truly artistic group that has always evolved & improvised their sound. I believe that this was an attempt to sell more albums and maybe be recognized on a bigger commercial scale...
So true...especially with those dark, eerie, sadistic sounding jazz breakdowns. They were one of a kind. Any metal band with a brotha rocking the fuck out gets props from me though
not to break anybodys heart but.....Candiria is dead! they are not coming out with another cd. Kenneth left the band to become a producer, and Coma lost all his money. They ain't comin back. If they do, they're gonna suck.
why is there always some dickhead talking about a black person as a rock singer as if its some revolutionary idea ? or as if they need to not move their arms and be all stiff like some lame robot , to be more rock n roll? jimi hendrix invented this hard shit , so shut up and take the gifts we have all been given from people like muddy waters , taj mahal , ledbelly, prince and so on and so on . save the race card and listen to the music . these fuckers are sick.
I abhor the way you think melody equates to "selling out"... Last time i checked, they were still booking their own tours and driving themselves around to their own shows in a van without any crew...
Bro, when you are a metal band and then you start writting pop songs you have sold out. Using name recognition as a means to write pop songs is lame. And apparently you haven't checked very often, because the drummer left and their website no longer exists.
Candiria were never a 'metal' band in the first place. They've always fused different styles. Their older sound from 300% density and earlier had more in common with jazz than it did with metal. Almost every Candiria record to be released has one or two hiphop tracks with guest rappers featuring so why aren't you calling that 'selling out" just because it's "different"?
Precisely because those hip hop songs were very different and not radio grabbing pop songs, which is the direction they went in later on. I still liked the later stuff, but it wasn't Candiria... it was a different style w/ the same band name
i think their older stuff was more creative and unique, but its nice to hear that they can produce a simple rock cd and still be better than over half the shit out there. by the way i heard the lead singer is trying to put together a whole new cd. hes lookin for guitar players and bass players. If ur interested, give it a shot. Just go to Candiria's website and hes got ways to get in touch from there.
There sound changed alot, i believe it sounds great, i believe that the crash that they were involved in had something to do with it. The front cover of this album for this song was their van. I think it made them a bit mor appreciated about life in general. To tell you the truth, i did not like there older stuff as much. What doesn't kill you is a great album...Remove yourself is by far one of there greatest songsThe arm and hand movements are not necessary for a song like this though.
yeah, the guitar player(his name is Eric, by the way) said that the lead singer now lives in a crappy apartment in New York, because he never invested his money like Eric did
the guitar player lives next door to me, he would always joke about how every time his songs were played at Nascar or something, he would get this huge-ass paycheck
300% density is the most insane, evolved album I have heard since Angel Dust.....some of you will disagree and send me hate mail-I welcome the criticism :)
seriously. i'm sure they got really fucking bored with playing song after song without a chorus, and i'm sure that carley wanted to sing too, and i bet the band wanted to play something a little different. bands and music have to evolve and change. why not candiria? if at least for just a few songs on the new cd?
When I bought this CD, I thought they got a new lead singer! After all those years of hearing Carley scream and growl, how knew the brotha could sing?! I loked this CD. I wasn't as hard as the prior CD's, but more musical and accessible. Candiria is still in my top 5 ever!!!
I notice that there's a lot of narrow minded people on this page. Yeh he's black, get over it, wat about Jimi Hendrix, and to the person who said he looks like a rapper, he Carley Coma is in fact a very good rapper and it adds a great dimension to their music, check out their album 300% density that album pushed music to the limit. In comparison with that album this song falls way below their standards, that was candirias peak for sure, pity some members have left the band,
have no idea where candiria has gone with their music...now they sound like every other lame band out there. . . where's the crunchy driving guitars in signs of discontent or C.O.M.A. ,,, fairly disappointing to say the least. . .
To me, this just shows exactly how amazing this band is. The fact that they can pretty much do whatever they want to with their music and not really lose anything in the process is incredible. I agree with past comments I've seen, they really are the most underrated band I've ever heard.

Look people, Candiria has been setting trends in progressive & modern metal for over a decade.They are a truly artistic group that has always evolved & improvised their sound. I believe that this was an attempt to sell more albums and maybe be recognized on a bigger commercial scale...

So true...especially with those dark, eerie, sadistic sounding jazz breakdowns. They were one of a kind. Any metal band with a brotha rocking the fuck out gets props from me though

not to break anybodys heart but.....Candiria is dead! they are not coming out with another cd. Kenneth left the band to become a producer, and Coma lost all his money. They ain't comin back. If they do, they're gonna suck.

I've came to notice that Black singers make Rock/Metal more interesting and its usually better.
This guy is a amazing vocalist.

This is nowhere near the worst song I've ever heard. This is actually pretty interesting. Reggaeton and Mathcore mixed together. Cool.

why is there always some dickhead talking about a black person as a rock singer as if its some revolutionary idea ? or as if they need to not move their arms and be all stiff like some lame robot , to be more rock n roll? jimi hendrix invented this hard shit , so shut up and take the gifts we have all been given from people like muddy waters , taj mahal , ledbelly, prince and so on and so on . save the race card and listen to the music . these fuckers are sick.

Still a decent musical song. I like their older stuff better..much better.

I abhor the way you think melody equates to "selling out"... Last time i checked, they were still booking their own tours and driving themselves around to their own shows in a van without any crew...
heavyonit 4 years ago 2
Bro, when you are a metal band and then you start writting pop songs you have sold out. Using name recognition as a means to write pop songs is lame. And apparently you haven't checked very often, because the drummer left and their website no longer exists.

That's funny.....like metal bands don't write pop songs.

Candiria were never a 'metal' band in the first place. They've always fused different styles. Their older sound from 300% density and earlier had more in common with jazz than it did with metal. Almost every Candiria record to be released has one or two hiphop tracks with guest rappers featuring so why aren't you calling that 'selling out" just because it's "different"?
heavyonit 4 years ago
Precisely because those hip hop songs were very different and not radio grabbing pop songs, which is the direction they went in later on. I still liked the later stuff, but it wasn't Candiria... it was a different style w/ the same band name
Trashtalker508 4 years ago
Your definition of "pop" music is quite an odd one :)
heavyonit 4 years ago
Couldn't believe this when I heard it, it's like Hootie And The Blowfish or 311. One band that was so ahead of everyone else.
jazzwing 4 years ago
i think their older stuff was more creative and unique, but its nice to hear that they can produce a simple rock cd and still be better than over half the shit out there. by the way i heard the lead singer is trying to put together a whole new cd. hes lookin for guitar players and bass players. If ur interested, give it a shot. Just go to Candiria's website and hes got ways to get in touch from there.

There sound changed alot, i believe it sounds great, i believe that the crash that they were involved in had something to do with it. The front cover of this album for this song was their van. I think it made them a bit mor appreciated about life in general. To tell you the truth, i did not like there older stuff as much. What doesn't kill you is a great album...Remove yourself is by far one of there greatest songsThe arm and hand movements are not necessary for a song like this though.

yeah, the guitar player(his name is Eric, by the way) said that the lead singer now lives in a crappy apartment in New York, because he never invested his money like Eric did
SmashingJack420 4 years ago
the guitar player lives next door to me, he would always joke about how every time his songs were played at Nascar or something, he would get this huge-ass paycheck

>>why is this "crap", Because they experimented, evolved and broadened their sound?<<
Khm, I wouldn't call this evolving, nor experiment, it's more like devolving into predictable and boring mainstream.
To each their own I guess, I myself prefer their early albums, crazy stuff!

Jcaron1974 4 years ago
seriously. i'm sure they got really fucking bored with playing song after song without a chorus, and i'm sure that carley wanted to sing too, and i bet the band wanted to play something a little different. bands and music have to evolve and change. why not candiria? if at least for just a few songs on the new cd?
luvu2bleep 4 years ago
When I bought this CD, I thought they got a new lead singer! After all those years of hearing Carley scream and growl, how knew the brotha could sing?! I loked this CD. I wasn't as hard as the prior CD's, but more musical and accessible. Candiria is still in my top 5 ever!!!

I notice that there's a lot of narrow minded people on this page. Yeh he's black, get over it, wat about Jimi Hendrix, and to the person who said he looks like a rapper, he Carley Coma is in fact a very good rapper and it adds a great dimension to their music, check out their album 300% density that album pushed music to the limit. In comparison with that album this song falls way below their standards, that was candirias peak for sure, pity some members have left the band,

have no idea where candiria has gone with their music...now they sound like every other lame band out there. . . where's the crunchy driving guitars in signs of discontent or C.O.M.A. ,,, fairly disappointing to say the least. . .
