I'm so F'n happy that Daniel De Jongh exists... finally a TRUELY diverse singer. He has the elitist vocal touch ranging from pop to the heaviest of metal. Daniel, you are officially the greatest singer/vocalist of all time(at least in my book.) Check out Cilice, his work on there makes Mike Patton look like a choir boy.
could do with some more dynamic variation is my opinion. Nothing more than opinion though. Maybe some progressive aspects would keep me more interested too. Drumming is sick and main riff is catchy as hell.
The line and shapes suggests to me that the content is about the earth and weather or not it's designed. Or perhaps it's just done to look cool.
So much beauty in this song!!!....it fits well with this album too!!...polars, silhouettes and now this!!!...these guys are here to dominate!!!!..\m/...
I LOVE Textures. I Loved them before AND after Daniel joined. They are amazing. It is melodic, heavy, and versatile. Could we ask for more ?! Nothing but LOVE for TEXTURES :)
im honored to be the 3rd person to view this video, im seeing them tonight in oakland.... people have no idea on how much textures and the whole jent scene have changed my life and musical inspiration in general. :)
Absolutely gorgeous video. I'm normally not the type of person that really gets into music videos because they all seem to be sending the same message. Look at us we are all awesome and can play instruments and stuff, but this video has a message that goes along with it and some excellent cinematography. This is right up there with Isis's "20 minutes/ 40 years."
I left a comment a few day ago,saying that i really like the song and that the video fit's good and stuff...now, after hearing and watching it for a few times more often, i have to say that i fucking LOVE it!! I really love the "calm" site of Textures, with song like Messangers and Awake, and this Song is just soo beautiful as well.And Daniel is doing a hell of a job here! I think Textures could't find a better replacement for Eric, they are both so incredible talented Vocalist!
such powerful material, i think it's a pity the mix isn't a bit better. not saying it's bad, just saying it could have more mids, it's very devoid of fillings, perhaps too roomy or airy. very good composition, though
watching textures evolve since drawing has been incredible. they have really amped up every aspect of their sound a bit more on each record, and dualism is arguably their best. It's right up there with corelia's new EP, digital veil and parallax hypersleep as one of the best albums this year. not to mention, stef has had a profound impact on the way I approach drumming. <3
and of course, this video is superb, very arresting visually, props to whoever produced this!
Thank you Textures, I don't know if you understand how important music like this is to me and many others. You've gone beyond making good tunes and reached a plateau where, without any exaggeration, you give life meaning with your music. Thank you
Singer runs off to shoot music video, comes back and says, "Hey guys! We have a music video featuring me!" Rest of band is like, "Uhh...weren't we supposed to be in it, too?" Singer, "Fuck no!"
I hated this song when I first heard it because I thought you guys were getting soft, I now cant stop listening to it and am so damn pumped for your album
As much as I love the sound of this album so far... It just doesn't have that epicness that silhouettes had. Something about the new sound just isn't textures... Maybe its just because of the new vocals by Daniel, but I just don't feel textures when I hear this music.
Daniel is one of my absolute favorite singers and this song is beautiful, but this seems to be their new 'awake' and its not nearly as memorable as Awake was. Not enough emotion in the vocals, too straight forward.
I can't believe some people think this is the best album Textures have released... I just can't believe it... this is a transition album, the ingredients of this new recipe have to settle, and that's for sure. Catchy album indeed, but they went too far with the background delayed guitars.Anyway, Burning the midnight oil is amazing. But c'mon, the best????? Let me tell you two words: STORM WARNING... it's just the best song ever, in the whole f*cking world.
It is extremely unfortunate that the album leaked (for the band), but it fucking slays! Dualism is Textures all grown up, and I think this is the best textures we have seen yet.
@r34perpwnz Damn right, although to be honest I think the leak might have actually helped if anything. I know a lot of people were on the fence about the new stuff with a new vocalist and all, and even I myself (despite being a huge fan) wasn't entirely sure when I first heard this track. After I heard the leak I instantly pre-ordered a cd/shirt bundle off their site, and I know a few others who did exactly the same thing :)
very good, i don't know why people are complaining, look back to drawing circles and silhouettes, songs like upwards and awake. i understand cus at first i was like "oh maybe that's a bit straightforward for a textures". But the point is that it's simplistic and they pull it off beautiful. Every single song shouldn't have to have polyrhythms or screaming etc, I think this is also a celebration of Daniel's first album with them. I think it has a very strong character as a song, it's beautiful.
This really is a beautiful song. I'm sure some people will say it's repetitive, boring or maybe it's too melodic for them? But this song has such a great atmosphere, you really just gotta take it in and relax when you listen to it. I have also heard a bunch of heavy stuff off this album that is awesome! So why be down on them for having a bit of variation in their songs? I absolutely love the new vocalist and I can't wait for this album.
@ARamisciouSA Amen to that. You'd think people might grasp the idea of the variety contained within, after all, the band is called "Textures"..
The new album is phenomenal, and while I do indeed miss Eric, Daniel is fantastic in his own right and fits perfectly with the new material. I simply can't wait for my pre-order to arrive :)
This is a beautiful song. Absolutely love it. Dualism is easily one of my favorite albums of the year. It's incredibly varied and just this so happens to be one of the calmer songs. Fantastic job. Really makes me proud to be Dutch.
A 'djent' act... You must be kidding. What the hell is djent anyway? Whoever came up with that ridiculous genre tag must have been drunk or something...
Hey! It's AWAKE in colour. The new vocalist is very talented. I do miss Eric though. Also interesting production on this album, very different to the last.
When I was a child I went to Lanzarote, this was my first trip far from home, so it kept a special flavor to me. I remember those landscape around the Timanfaya volcano and it really stick which Textures' soundscape. I really like the song, pretty close to Messenger & Awake, and I'm glad there's no shouts because this would have been a bit predictable ! It's the first time I hear the new singer, he's great, but I can't help thinking of this song with Eric, it would have been as massive blast !
Why is the audio in mono? It also sounds like it's lesser quality than the original audio. Yes, I'm watching at 1080p, still not right.... Great video otherwise though!
Nice video! Amazing landscapes, amazing song. Music is a little bit more mainstream and a little bit less challenging technically, but I like it somehow, melody is what's the most important! Can't wait to hear the new album :)
This should be on Vimeo!!! D:
I wanna see the original quality!! It looks great! Props to the crew filming and the people who added the effects.
Of course props to Textures!!! :D
