  • Honestly, I saw TesseracT with Between the Buried and Me, and Animals as Leaders and TesseracT's new vocalist (Elliot) is really, really bad live. Like, really bad. Maybe he was just having an off night, but he did no justice to their older songs. None.

  • this is really different Ill be buying the second cd for sure!!

  • I really like the old singer, but this guys good too, different but good

  • this song is so awesome

  • The only reason I like this song is because Elliot Coleman is in it. Way better than the old stuff.

  • I want to like this new guy, but I saw them in NYC on Sunday, and either he was having a bad day, or he really just can't sing. He can't growl, he was off key a lot, and he has this move where he licks his thumb, and slicks his hair back with his hand, which was amusing, but I'm not looking forward to the next album. I even didn't buy any merch at the show due to his performance.

  • @gojira718 He was awesome at the show I saw. Was probably having a bad day.

  • I only just found out there was a new vocalist, don't get me wrong I like the dude and this track sounds frickin awesome, can't wait for the full thing, I just miss Dan's voice, it just had that more unique feel, the notes he could hit were frickin amazing and the whole music combined just sounded magical

  • I love this, it's amazing

  • I just dont get the same feeling from Elliot that i did from Dan. Dan is the man! but ill still keep listening

  • MAKE THAT GREEN LOGO A T SHIRT!

  • Elliots vocal placements and notes he hits are incredible and so catchy!What are the lyrics (some are obvious but not sure in some areas),are there any official lyrics anywhere.....Elliot you are a beast.

  • Elliot's seriously progressed over the short years from having an underwhelming voice to one that could, talking about top comment, turn me gay. So good.

  • i think this is the direction music is heading towards.... i'm all in.

  • elliot is ok, but for me personally, he will never replace what dan did

  • Amazing.

  • can we have a guy that sounds like Casey SaboL?? im done hearing all these high vocals

  • Did everyone read that it says this is a "very rough pre-production track". The finished product will sound much better(even tho it sounds pretty damn good right now). Everyone needs to relax!!

  • WOW! This sounds better than the original. There is actually some soul in Djent? Who would have guessed, now I don't feel like i'm listening to a fucking mathematical equation.

  • @biglilsef Hahahaha, that comment might be way too harsh, but it sure made me laugh. :D

  • i will miss th eold singer he was very very good! but i can't wait for th enew material! i am curious what it will give

  • This adjustment is going to be really hard for me. I've gotten heavily into TesseracT as of recent and bought the CD/DVD combo and just watching it and them all together makes it hard for me to think it'll be different. Dan by far is the most impressive vocalist I've ever heard. I'll keep my ears open but so far I'm not too satisfied with Elliot. Maybe in time. As for now I can only hope Dan will one day return. *sigh*... I can dream right?

  • The fact that this has 59 dislikes and 195 likes is blasphemy.

  • Where's the control? Dan could hold a note strait for goddamn 3 hours. WHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHY­WHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHY­WHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHY­WHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHY­WHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHY

  • @redkef what, you think just because I didn't do that means I can't? I didn't know I had to pull out all stops on a two minute demo.

  • @Fingertap2002 Don't worry, people just don't like change. All the hate will hopefully be gone after an album.

  • @Fingertap2002 Hey man, I've been listening around since then and I can tell that you're good, I like the jazziness of the notes you choose. I had just found out about Dan and all I could find of yours was this. I'm just worried that you're going to end up sounding like that guy from periphery; I can't stand that whiny tone that's become popular. It's theatrical in a very juvenile way and not truly soulful. Dan's voice was a carrier wave of raw emotion. Please live up to that.

  • @redkef Why would you rather listen to long held out notes. Haven't you heard enough of that with the old Tesseract. It gets BORING. A little variety is nice don't you think?

  • @Gorbs413 I think it depends man. The long held out notes are great when they're needed. Dan had a great approach to the music and it was a great album, however I am looking forward to Elliot's input on the music and I'm talking a fully mixed, produced, and fully thought out song. I love what he's done, but it's always the final product that I love to hear. Either way you have a point but I say it doesn't matter as long as it speaks to me. I still haven't stopped listening to One lol.

  • Wow, this sounds pretty terrible. :(

  • OH WAIT THIS IS THE NEW VERSION OF THE AUGUST 8TH DEMO. FUCK YEAH!!!!!!

  • I seriously didn't expect Elliot to fit into Tesseract as well as this. Dan was a beast but Elliot's by far my favorite vocalist and I can see him doing amazing things with Tesseract's next album. If you want to check out some of Elliot's other work, just look up Of Man Not Of Machine.

  • I love how everyone's trashing Elliot but everyone loves Spencer from Periphery.

  • @TheSTRIKE4220 It was the other way round not long ago, people just need time for their asses to stop hurting and appreciate

  • @TheSTRIKE4220 hahaha so true

  • @TheSTRIKE4220 For me, Dan is still better than Elliot, but Elliot absolutely shits on/OWNS Spencer.

  • @TheDjentinator Dude...thats just wrooong! :D

  • still prefer Dan...

  • Not what I expected, and possibly a few kinks to be ironed out matching the new vocals to the music, but early days and some great potential. 1:30 on is hot, steamy ear secks. Plenty of reason to be optimistic about the new lineup.

  • I loved Dan in every possible way. Perfect high pitch, perfect growls and perfect endurance in his voice. His stage performance was unachievable too. But Elliot has that mystic sound. just listen to 0:13. That's perfect, just perfect. Those dissonant tones he sings are even as good as Dan's. He might sing almost a octave higher than Dan, ever listened to Spencer Sotelo? All 3 guys are pushing their voices to the limit. Idc about "being gay vocalists" as long they only are pleasuring my ears...

  • @Sybdrum Fantastic comment. Glad someone pointed out how good the 0:13 bit as well.

  • It's different obviously. I'm just sick of all these people who are afraid of change and not even giving Elliot a chance.

  • m8 i saw these lot at the Garage in London n was fucking amazed ! n Elliot Coleman done a fucking fantastic job considering the time hes had to do everything. YOU ALL MUST SEE THIS LINE-UP ....

  • got to admit i prefer dan

  • hes good but got nothing on dan

  • Ehhh...it sounds like he's off key almost constantly...

  • @MiseryFields He's in key, just using different notes, then a more conventional approach, to what the rest of the band is playing. It's called dissonance and it sounds fantastic.

  • @MiseryFields Listen to Letter Experiment by Periphery and you'll understand.

  • The music sounds awesome, I have a feeling the vocals will grow on me.

  • What a schism in the TesseracT world! Fuck you, I like Elliot!

  • Elliot's approach is interesting. I most certainly welcome this new Tesseract.

  • pure awesomness. Dan really was a great vocalist, but elliots voice really is a great addition to the band. very excited to hear what he can do on new material

  • Must hear more!!!

  • FUCK YEAH ELLIOT

  • I am usually pretty open to new band member's and change, Not bashing Elliot because he is talented. But I can't get into his Vocals. Don't know if I am going to like the new album. I could never get into Sky Eats Airplane because of Elliot's vocals. I got a feeling its not going to fit TesseracT. Sorry guy's.

  • @ConAssgtr just to let you know Elliot only sang on like one Sky Eats Airplane song. he played bass. Brian and Jerry sang on their recent records

  • I don't like the new singer. :( too high pitched and whiny

  • FAIL.

    RIP TesseracT of yore.

  • Those people disappointed Dan has left need to give this more of a chance! this is fucking beautiful!!! cannot wait to hear more!

  • @IOAF def very true! but iam disappointed dan left, he was amazing as well, i should have been in new orleans seeing tesseract tonight :/ but sadly plans didnt fly properly :/ but yes we cannot wait to hear more amazingness from tesseract!

  • excellent music but the vocals of elliot i think is lil bit too much!!!but if he can do these vocals live then just rescpect!!! : P

  • Bit of Devin Townsend in there ^^

  • I know he won't be able to do this live, but I like how the recording ended up. The vocals remind me of Protest the Hero.

  • Eh...I don't hear Elliot's voice fitting with Tesseract well.

  • Who ever is saying this is out of key is crazy. Not once does he go out of key.

  • All of the haters have obviously never heard Elliot's screams.

  • The falsettos sound pretty weak... maybe even out of key? Sounds like the dude from the Darkness!! Cheeeese!!!

  • EPIC well done Elliot! i just Djizzed

  • The vocals are cool.

    but I just don't feel that they make me addicted like Dan could. sry

  • This Elliot Coleman has certainly got some vocal skills. I can't say Dan is better or vice versa, but I still think Dan's voice suited Tesseract better. I don't know if I will appreciate their new music quite as much because of this. .-.

  • Reminded me of a Poor Mans Rody Walker from Protest the Hero.

  • Wow this guy way off key and does not suit the music at all!!! Dan you will be missed man!!

  • vocals sound abit like Mars Volta imo, i do preferd Dan tho

  • @shazerian that's why i love him! he sounds like a good fit, honestly.

  • I don't know, still. I like Elliot in the other projects he's been in. But i'm not sure he really suits this band. Near the end with the ambience and the harmonies it's awesome, but near the beginning, i'm not sure I like the way he dances around notes in a jazzy sort of style. I call it "noodly." I suppose time will tell.

  • I honestly don't believe anyone could love this as much as I do. I've been following TesseracT back in the myspace days. They have developed so much, I cannot wait to catch them in Glasgow. I am huge fan Dan, he will do well. I wish him all the best. Elliot's vocals in the song is just perfection. These guy's are made for this, watch this space. It's time to dominate.

  • I'm fuckgin high and this is awesome as fuck tesseractazzos

  • vocals like A LOT like Jeff Buckley

  • So ummm I need this on my iPod ASAP. Soooo good :)

  • what happened to Dan ? thats quite a loss .. but only a third of the reason why i love "Concealing Fate", specifically.

  • Really enjoying Elliots vocals. A breath of fresh air.

  • No. Just.. no

  • I need the whole song

  • @On1Th3K1ll3r I've heard the whole thing, it sounds awesome!! :-)

  • @Spermwhales93 where dude?

  • @On1Th3K1ll3r I saw them live in Cardiff. They played the whole song as part of the set :-).

  • IMO i think Elliot's voice makes tesseracts music more dream like..well his clean vocals anyways. I like it. I still like Dan though. Looking forward to a new album and hearing more. we all will always have Dan's vocals on "One" so why not give Elliot a chance on the new stuff. just my opinion anyways.

  • You know, at first I liked it, then I hated it, and now i'm addicted to it. Elliot really brings his own sound to tesseract. Yeah it sounds like a girl is fronting it, but what band of this genre sounds like this? His melodies are super interesting in this song too. I honestly wasn't sure if this was going to work out, but I think i'm going to love tesseract more.

  • From this time I want instrumental versions of everything Tesseract will make with this new guy.... shame, if you ask me

  • @MunkyCZ what if we did a A'cappella version instead? :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

  • Guys, it's their fucking music. Your opinions do not matter.

  • tesseract is playing with chimp spanner..? dayum..

  • i tihnk he's got potential but he needs to not hit so many of those super high notes. it doesnt fit the song

  • omg, i cannot stand this guy.. lol.

  • the new vocalist is perfect.

  • Mix it up and it's perfect!

  • I don't like at all the new singer

  • yeah ok Elliot I guess you fit in pretty well

  • i like the bluesy swagger of it, but I really doubt he could pull this off live. He'd be too busy shaking his head all over the place and running out of breath.

  • Fuck yeah! Elliot's a beast!

  • Fuck this, gonna take ages to get used to new singer.... Textures now tesseract, cant they handle all the touring?

  • This vocalist grew on me fucking quickly. This sounds cool but seeing him live he has nothing on Dans stage presence. Dans gaze would pierce the crowd and turn straight people gay LIKE ME !!!

  • Love the vox. Tesseract can only travel upwards henceforth!

  • i miss dan but eliot is a fucking good singer too!

  • Casey Sabol should have been the new singer in my opinion

  • @Throne1607 To be honest I don't think he would give a shit. I mean, his facebook says he went to space.

  • Saying "RIP TESSERACT" just makes you seem stupid.. If you're a serious fan, then you'll give it some time and try to adapt to the change. Besides we haven't heard a shit at this point. Tesseract (old or new) doesn't deserve idiots like that as fans.

    It's really a shame how people treat the ones they claim to admire. Show some respect for fucks sake!

  • This is gonna be awesome. Different eras, my friends... different and awesome individually. Get over it haters! This shit sounds enticing!

  • What the FUCK happened to Dan? And when?!

  • @SzymonSzanczuk How's that rock you're living under treating you? Haha, but seriously, Dan quit and they got Elliot Coleman.

  • @Alkahest3388 Well the rock i'm living under coincidentally came with 5.1 surround sound that continuously plays their debut album, One. So it's pretty awesome. But that's a damn shame. He's a unique vocalist.

  • @SzymonSzanczuk I wish I had a rock that nice! :D

  • C'mon guys, give this dude a chance...don't judge on 2min teaser!!! They wouldn't pick him if he couldn't deliver! Long live Tesseract

  • i like Dan A LOT more but this will have to do i guess..... :(

  • Will probably miss Dan's vocals but these new ones are pretty good. Sounds indeed a lot like Protest The Hero, and PTH has some pretty ballin' vocals.

  • Comment removed

  • What the fuck have they done!!!! Vocals now are totally shit!!! Lost one fan right here!

  • I try not to be one of those people who constantly bitch when a band I love gets a new singer, but damn, I REALLY miss Dan's vocals. Whenever I listen to this, I can't help but imagine how Dan's vocals would've sounded. I think I'll always like Dan's vocals more, but I understand that shit happens and bands need to keep moving forward.

  • I thumbed up BOTH Top Comments even if they say opposite things , cause both is right, it will be interesting listening to the new Vox , both i will also miss the "One" Times

  • He is not bad vocalist but still Dan is much better and I'll always prefer their older stuff with Dan :)

  • @theunhallowed23 'old stuff with dan'. pretty sure dan joined end-ish of 09? the 'old' stuff was with abi. shows how much most of these butthurt 'true' fans know eh.

  • @ainsleywalker when I said old stuff i meant on concealing fate EP and album One. -.-'

  • @theunhallowed23 Exactly. That's not old at all dude haha.

  • @ainsleywalker When they make new album with new vocalist it will be :P

  • @ainsleywalker I've been listening since they had Abie and I'm still on the fence about this guy. I love OMNOM but I don't think he fits in TesseracT.....Just going to take getting used to I guess, because I fucking love these guys.

  • @Tubember Yeah fair point. He's a different style to Dan and Abi for sure but, I love TMV and he reminds me of Cedric big time, so that vocal style + Groove is a good thing for me personally!

  • :/ don't like the new vocals at all :c fuck!!!

  • It's like Tesseract just got some Mars Volta action!

  • Bit of a Circa Survive feel to the vocals. Good job new guy!

  • At first I thought it was some new band with a female vocalist and did not realize that it was TesseracT before the video was over. Of all the vocalists out there, why the hell did they choose this guy?

  • The vocals are much better, I might get into this band now:)

  • R.I.P TesseracT

    

  • Good god..the vocals remind me of Protest The Hero.

  • @Deathz0r94 lol my cousins said exactly the same. That vocalist is levels above Eliot though he is like a god

  • this is badass! go elliot! 

  • ok, they f***ed it up ...

  • Ohh dear

  • Holyeeee fuck. Dan is an AMAZING vocalist for sure, serious talent especially live. But like....fuck. SEA is one of my favourite bands along with Tesseract, and Elliot has stepped it up way beyond what I ever thought he could do from the SEA ep, and suits the band perfectly. Looking forward to seeing more and more of the new material.

  • @ShadowPyke He only sang for part of "Motion Sickness" so there wasn't much to judge from that release. Agreed though, this is amazing!

  • @HaroldDrums Ah yeah you're right, he was the bassist. Wow, why didn't he feature more in that album? Haha

  • with all due respect. i love tesseract. in fact i followed acle and TesseracT since myspace, back when TesseracT was a one man bedroom project. i loved how they evolved. they took their time for everything. seen them live with two different singers, once in front of 30 people. still loved them. but this, seriously, is the worst i've ever heard by TesseracT. why taking the next best guy that can sing high notes but has a voice like a mix between cedric of TMV and Rebecca Black!???

  • Ok, after 100times of listening to this on my iPod, I have to say that he's brilliant. Elliot is not better or worse than Dan, but different, in a good way! :-) I like it. Though I miss Dan...

  • I think the slight change in guitar tone is distressing me more that the change of vocalist. Might just be my speakers. Tbh Elliot is a fucking amazing vocalist, as is Dan. Neither is better, they're just different and I think TesseracT will adapt well to it.

  • @SeanathenII lol Acle took the piss out of you on FB

  • @nameless12345 Where? I looked on both the TesseracT page and his own profile. Couldn't find anything.

  • Sorry Bro, i don't like your voice that much. No offense, really. Prolly because i got used to Dans. But anyway, i won't stop listening to Tesseract. Good luck to all of you guys, keep up making badass music!

  • Sounds like the Cedric from TMV. Fucking boss.

  • Not bad, Elliot.

    Will take a while to get used to.

  • stop fucking arguing and appreciate it.

  • Elliot should have stayed with SEA and Dan with TesseracT. Ah well, sometimes we have to make sacrifices and big decisions in our lives that take us to other places. Keen to see how future releases turn out and how Dan goes with his solo project! Good luck to them both. (Y)

  • @petruccidude yeah i really like him in SEA that last EP was cool

  • I am rather new to this band, could someone mention me a song which had Dan singing it?

  • @Staticxxftw lol how new are you???like 2 days or something? just check the Tesseract conealing fate EP and the ONE album and that is all Dan

  • @Staticxxftw dude just put tesseract into the youtube search bar.

  • @Staticxxftw pretty much all of the videos that are up of tesseract are going to have dan in them, elliots brand spanking new

  • i didn't know that you have to be able to sing like him to be allowed to criticize him. Everybody is entitled to an opinion, yet, it's almost undeniable that even though Elliot has a good voice and can sing, he is utterly unsuitable for TesseracT (or at least for the old, eerie Tesseract) . I highly doubt this is going to be at least half as heart-touching as Dan's fabulous performances. As many others have stated before : R.I.P. the Tesseract we all love.

  • why did they switch their singer? not a hate question. i just have no idea and would like to know.

  • @MojoJojo378 Dan left to start a family and shit cuz he is married and what not and touring wasn't allowing him to do that.

  • @nameless12345 That's not the reason.
