The Human Abstract - Digital Veil

[Jordy666sic]

Funny AJ stated he was tired of metal 3 years before recording/writing/co-producing this album. Looks like he worked out for 3 years straight. Totally gay that vocalist joined them for a year and then decided he wanted to spend time with his girlfriend and his electronic solo project..

[weigelrt]

are any of these original members? wtf gay

[BuriedAlive7x]

@weigelrt yes!!!! both guitar players and drummer are original members

[BrotherofAether]

Canadians are friggin awesome

[fuckyoselftoob]

Honestly with this band a vocalist could only hurt them, not help them. That said IMO this guy does not hurt them. The instrumentals are what brings me to this band, and their always amazing.

[PhokusOner]

The singer is gonna make dubstep like Skrillex lol

[thtdudewiththehair]

@PhokusOner i can't tell if you're aware that this guy was in a terrible emo band with skrillex. are you?

[demoniccheese]

in my opinion, they should have changed the name of the band after Nathan left to avoid confusion and conflict.

[ShiftyStealthy]

anyone know the name of this vocalist? hes my favourite out of all their vocalists

[ObscureBeast]

@ShiftyStealthy Travis Richter

[ShiftyStealthy]

@ObscureBeast thx bro hes a beast

[Twitchwillkillya]

@ShiftyStealthy he quit shortly after the album was made though :(

[ShiftyStealthy]

@Twitchwillkillya yeah i know...if they ever make another album, i dont think it will be quite as good as this one because travis is gone...unless he rejoins

[SoundofTruth78]

damn the drummer is so stiff, but damn can he drum

[lui2133]

haha the guitarist in the back round is bros teacher ;)

[blaksheep555]

i love these guys, but they look so dead in this video compared to the energy the emitted in Crossing the Rubicon. que paso?

[webmastertool]

ego homines amo.

[BalleBaest]

This is brilliant!

[ridealot100]

This is AwesomeCore. Without the core.

[TheEnigmaticForm11]

R.I.P.

[AvADeathsiege]

NOOOOOOO!!!!



[SatansBro1]

They broke up yesterday,

[TheKenner89]

Misha Mansoor and mark okubo talked about how it was a guitar tone and not a genre.

[ShiftyStealthy]

...everyone knows that djent ISNT a genre right? its a guitar tone...

[PASTAandMUSE]

@ShiftyStealthy It's quickly becoming a genre, it seems.

[ShiftyStealthy]

@PASTAandMUSE well anything can become a genre it also seems...lol

[alfun54321]

PULL ME FROM THE GALLOWS BEST EFFIN PART

[emaciation]

if i ever hear someone utter the word "djent" in person i'll cave his head in with my baton.

[metallicaman5240]

@emaciation this is some djenty djent

[gosk8n]

Cannot deny that this band has a tremendous skill lvl. of 52... im impressed

[bamtv05]

I was told to look these guys up......all I gotta say is....HOLY FUCKING SHIT THIS IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[xsuperstomp]

fuck genres and classifications... you either like an artist or you don't and that's cool either way. Personally I like these dudes, hence why I am here watching the video and commenting.

[fenderkid]

Who the fuck cares if it's djent or not? It's fucking music. Settle down, get off your high horses and open your ears.

[shacougraV3]

I'm so sick of the word djent... Its all metal nuff said.

[sgtzero1337]

this is badass, but not much my thing..

[FieryTigerWolf]

only good song on the album in my opinion saw them live aswell with suicide silence and they played this was awesome

[OhKelseaNicole]

@SynysterGerm72 *Practicing. (;

[SynysterGerm72]

@OhKelseaNicole Haha alright true that but I still spelled it right =)

[SynysterGerm72]

AJ Minette is God!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TwentyfourFrets]

whats the name of the guy playing those sweeps?

[robbzdj]

@TwentyfourFrets Jesus. Also known as A.J. Minette

[devilman666]

How many original members in the band?



[iheartmetalcoreful]

How does this guy go from From First To Last, which is as light as it gets when it comes to hardcore, to THIS?

[MrShaunb81]

Travis. U mad bro?

[SuicideSilenceeee]

saw these live, but travis left by then, kinda wanted to see travis but the touring vocalist was fucking crazy, the motherbitch did a backflip on stage, love it

[CrucifyGFX]

MW3 Fan Made Music Video Song: Digital Veil!

Check It Out

[veylun]

came here cause i saw their name on the support for periphery's tour :P pretty cool stuff

[06salasco]

Love this album!

[jbtbamjjj]

This is not the same band I heard a couple of years ago...

[ManufacturedLegions]

@metalcoreftwcd

He went to college for the soul purpose of becoming a guitar god. Just listen to Midheaven by THA, it was NOTHING compared to this.

[ManufacturedLegions]

I'd like to know when Travis Richter suddenly became one of the best death metal style vocalists.

[metalcoreftwcd]

how much time must this guy spend practising his sweeps D:

[OhKelseaNicole]

@metalcoreftwcd about as much time as you spend practing* your grammar.

[SynysterGerm72]

@OhKelseaNicole Haha what's hilarious is you spelled it wrong too. Practice*

[panosroumee1316]

ποσο γαματοοοοο.... GREAT BAND!!!

[WanderToKyozo]

needs more guitar riffs

[seansayssup]

i love this band now. they sound all technically death metaly :D

[slawdog8]

sound like real drums to me. He drums just sound vintage as fuck

[oedasdawer]

I just listenend to some of the new tracks on their facebook page and the first thing i recognized was the the drums are so obviously not real (I mean not played on a real drum set but on an electronic one). I was just wondering why you would want to have your drums sound like that on the record...I think it's a shame that nowadays more and more bands record their tracks that way and use so much digital effects and stuff, because it really takes away the soul of the record.

[TheKenner89]

I like the new human abstract. But nothing compares to the old human abstract.

[thekat16]

@TheKenner89 couldn't agree more!

[zparck]

no hate, but i dont like the new stuff :S

[ThaGrimReefer420]

Y U NO PULL ME FROM GALLOWS?!?!

[ConsteIIashunZ]

I can't find a single drum cover for this song, everyone should go "like" Luke Holland on Facebook and ask him to cover it!

[Mdmftw13]

see them 2 days ago in Münster:)

the guitarist with the dreadlocks is awesome:O

no one bangs his head like him o.O

[ADAMAKAGORE]

WATCHING YOU GUYS TOMORROW!!!!AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAH!!!!

[Perpissing]

prefers the old Human Abstract T~T

[tonightweride77]

CHECK THE GERMAN KICKBACK!

The Plague's Aftermath - Memento

=vcklhlfl2P4

[TomeeeeeyPandora]

I don't like how these guys had more or less NO pits on the never say die london date... was depressing ): too underrated

[Kikerrose]

es ist der Hamma !!!!

ich liebe dieses Lied ((:

[xxLebbersxx]

sounds a little bit like Veil of Maya

[smackles123]

I miss the old human abstract :(

[coolioisafoolio]

@smackles123 ME TOO!

[noorandthestooges]

This friday I´m gonna see them live! /m/

[herohemmingsley]

@noorandthestooges SUICIDE SILENCE in patronaat!!

[noorandthestooges]

@herohemmingsley

yeah!

[MajesticMist]

Those sweeps are spliting particles everywhere.

[DoRinc100]

snare drum sounds like shit.

BUT THIS SONG IS FRIGGIN AWESOME :DD

[TheKillStealer]

this video needs more views...

[makethiswish]

2:39 forever

[Drainz0r186]

Fucking loved this band with Travis as the vocalist, and this and Faust are the two best songs off the album.

And I just found out Travis left the band and now I has a sad.

[TheDigitalveil]

@Drainz0r186

No, I just saw the human abstract last night at a show, and Travis was very much still in the band.

[Drainz0r186]

@TheDigitalveil Huh? Read the reference link on wikipedia where it says he left.

However, there was no official confirmation from the band or management – until now. We just received the following from the band: The Human Abstract and Travis Richter have parted ways. Ryan Devlin will be filling in on the next tour

Are you sure that wasn't the guy from Cornelia filling in? They have similar vocals.

[TheDigitalveil]

@Drainz0r186

You know what, you're right. My bad. They had similair vocals so I got confused. Either way he's still completely badass.

[Drainz0r186]

@TheDigitalveil Ah, damn. I was hoping he may have changed his mind. Well, at least this guy is good enough to confuse some fans, haha. Unfortunately, I think he's only filling in for the tour, not an actual member of the band itself.

[Sebtab1990]

Why Travis?? :( Why?...

[IAmFuckedUpMichelle]

I really love Nocturne and the whole dynamic and sound of that album, but I guess this alright. I just miss the melodic epic metal, this is harder and thrashier, which is cool, but still kinda generic.

[YevgeniyPig154]

Digital Veil of Maya more like

[whiteflag101]

@YevgeniyPig154 used Insult Attack, everyone with a sense of humour is not affected.

[YevgeniyPig154]

@whiteflag101 sadly you misunderstood...I said that because they have the same style as Veil of Maya..Your non-working brain processed that as in insult causing you get 'butt-hurt'.

[whiteflag101]

@YevgeniyPig154 sadly you are mistaken, my ass is actually not in any kind of pain what so ever. but i must apologize for i have made a mistake, i thought u were comparing this band to pierce the veil and got the two mixed up. but my butt still feels better than ever.

[YevgeniyPig154]

@whiteflag101 Ha...Lets become friends!! \ (^o^) /

[whiteflag101]

@YevgeniyPig154 OOOOOOOOK :D

[TakkiFucki]

I just heard the first 3 seconds and I love this song

[TomeeeeeyPandora]

You can't really stick this band into any one genre, they combine so much together, so well. Such a shame Travis left. His voice was brilliant.

[xanderthegreatt]

I really love the album, but honestly this seems like on odd choice for a video, it's one of the weaker songs on the album. Faust or antebellum would've made much cooler videos, IMO

[GameKid98]

Woah, a band like this has haters?

Seriously guys, i can honestly say it's not my favorite band, but really?

[KingJamesNBK187]

fuck yeah DJENT!

[Whiskey04]

@KingJamesNBK187 what;s the diff between djent and hardcore?

[KingJamesNBK187]

@Whiskey04 Djent is the tone of the guitar to give it that heavy crunchy futuristic like tone..Hardcore is a genre all by itself..

[mrfreedomthomas]

@KingJamesNBK187 Where's the Djent that I'm not hearing.

[rebirth0r]

@KingJamesNBK187 There is no djent.

[KingJamesNBK187]

@rebirth0r 1:02 if that isnt clear cut Djent, I dont know what is..

[mazereon]

@KingJamesNBK187 Then you don't know djent, clearly. Look up some Periphery or Mesuggah; that's djent. This is extreme metal with touches of death and thrash.

[KingJamesNBK187]

@mazereon You mean look up MESHUGGAH? my favorite band of all time then animals of leaders..Trust me, I know what Djent before it was even labeled..and extreme metal with touches of death and thrash? thats exactly what meshuggah plays..

[GreeSadisticMagician]

@mazereon Death is a form of extreme metal . . .

[mazereon]

@GreeSadisticMagician No kidding...? I never said otherwise.

[glaringatthesun]

@mazereon there are elemnts of djent in this, and meshuggah djent? i think youre conused buddy....

[DaveGrean]

@KingJamesNBK187 While this is technical and progressive, just like djent, one of the main characteristics of djent is a very specific kind of guitar tone, which this song lacks. So nope, it's not really djent.

[disnig69]

I guess the singer left the band or got kicked out? idk I JUST heard about them this is the second song I've listened to... but I found out about them cuz the singer of CORELIA(brand new band from san diego, best prog metal shit ever) is gonna be filling in for THA on this tour that started... today I guess? anyways everyone go check out CORELIA they're tight

[ryanb1122]

@disnig69 the vocalist left before the tour...travis.... i just saw them in Greensboro NC on saterday.... the vocalist that they are touring with now is very good choice as a replacement... to bad hes not staying.... i gave him a hug and touched his nipple =P.... and got an autograph

[HIVOLTAGEZzz]

I remember I was one of the first to like them on FB and I sent the page to friends and friends to friends, from all of those at least like 60 of my friends like it and their friends like em too. SO!. I can say I kinda helped them, hey 60 or more fans count right? ^ _ ^ lol.

[PiiiThierbaS]

they kind of suck without nick...srry guys

[benjaminsamms]

2:39. single most epic move ever created.

[ollienorth191]

All you guys saying sweeping is overused are dumb as shit. THA fucking makes it work fucking awesome.

[FolkViking]

What happened to this band?! Their first album was soooo good, now they are doing the same dumb bull shit every other medio-core band is doing. This makes me a sad panda



[LuckyCuspWishes413]

it sux travis is leaving the band :/ i feel bad for the rest of the guys..they just got him, and made an album better than the first...now hes pulling a sonny moore and becoming a DJ.. which aint too bad...cus his elctro stuff is great. i was just hoping hed stay with these guys :/

[AnubisWarGod]

@LuckyCuspWishes413 what the fuck really??? hes becoming a dj...thats like a kick in the nutsuck for this album he did with them. ahhh damn it. i hope he coes back one day.

[LuckyCuspWishes413]

@AnubisWarGod yeah he announced it on his tumbr.

he said DJing and producing is more of his cup o tea than this, he also said he wants to be with family and shit. it does suck :/ but idt he'll come back sadly

[Srgrivera]

I wonder how Travis feels to frontman this band. Such a difference from playing guitar and doing back ups in From First to Last. I love it! haha

[DanceLukeDancee]

@Srgrivera Travis has left The Human Abstract :( It was announced sometime this week

[Srgrivera]

@DanceLukeDancee Man that makes me really sad. :[

[zeekyboogydoog826]

If it's sad that I learned about these guys from a pal on Tumblr, I'm too engulfed in awesome to give a shit.

[christinaaaaa]

travis richterrrr!!

[Niixx1]

this tight!!!

[darkdruid7272]

SO. MUCH. WOW.

[xwigwango]

what the fuck. I juste realized that the singer was in from first to last ... lol

[Aepriz]

@xwigwango Yeah and they never let him sing (I still can't believe to)..

[muaythai166]

@xwigwango what kills me is that the old singer from first to last makes hella dub step stuff and produces techno shit under the name "skrillex"

[lukundrumms]

2:18 Epic¡¡¡

[StylerNasenhans]

see them @ never say die 2011 !!!!

[MrRadiatorPants]

@StylerNasenhans I would know of them if it wasn't for that! I'm going to that tour and they are on it!!! Wooooo

[ilyrikki327]

Someone call the cops, I just raped the replay button... The sweeps never fail to amaze me.

[mikeAkallas]

I like it, but I like the old singer better.

[sxgtrgd]

this band is fucking perfect!!!!

[lookoaf]

first!!!

[slayerxflames]

There's haters? How can you hate on a band who sweeps so epically?!

[igottehgoodstuffz]

@slayerxflames tap sweeping to be exact

[14rerun]

@slayerxflames EXACTLY why. Sweeping has become an overused, unoriginal gimmick just like it did with the shredders during the late 80's. I"m more impressed with when a band DOESN"T resort to using it.

[MrCarlosTM]

@slayerxflames Even more so, how can you hate on a band that's inspired by classical shit? No ears? :p

[DKsector013]

@slayerxflames

That is the greatest thing I've ever read.

[Roughsauce]

@slayerxflames the sweeps ain't even that great. good song though

[PerpetualMoon]

@slayerxflames

because those haters are jealous

[Metalrogue666]

I'm starting to wonder how many of the haters have actually listened to this album LOL

[Shadowtjestalker]

BEAST.

[KUDOxSHINICHI]

<3

[BeyondtheEndMetal]

Beyond the End - Conversion

[BodomBitchTerror88]

I actually rather like it :)

[gamemaster012345]

great vocals ! but need to do other stuff :/ like it sounds like your repeating your self.

[Garell2]

Boring.

[DanteCryify]

Hello we are the human abstract e we just know to play on C scale, LOL.

[Germanos87]

holy crap the guitarist looks sooooo gay...

[creecher1994]

@Nacaer

listen to the song "Patterns" he sings on that one. maybe not the best clean vox but it's a change(:

[BRBlahkah]

decent

[Nacaer]

The album is really cool but I simply won't buy it because of their new vocalist (I refuse to call him a sinbger). Don't get me wrong, because I really like screaming and shouting but it has to be blended with beautiful singing like PTH or BTBAM does. But whenever I listen to bands that only grunt around the whole song, I get this strange annoyed feeling inside of me and have to listen to something else. Its just to monotnous for my taste.. shame, they got rid of Nathan Ells. really liked him

[EasyCheezy1337]

@Nacaer

actually now they have much more balls..

and you are right with BTBAMs wonderful singing. they are without doubt my favourite band for all time, but tommys clean vocals are maybe 5% of the whole singing

dude, this is metal.. singing like katy perry to brütal riffs and brakdowns would be the same as pig squealing to a love song... it just wouldnt fit

but it is a matter of taste as everyone knows, so no offense towards you bud ;)

but in my opinion these guys are much cooler now

[paulosamsam]

I got a melted face listen this...

[kevlebmxeur]

great musician but this style of singer I hate!

[masterofmorphine92]

12 dislikes? WTF??

[Morbid2410]

так себе.. ничего интересного

[Mosa0666]

[FilghiProductions]
