...They've slowly been winning me over with each new single from this album. This was unexpected. And the harsh vox from Dan are light years ahead of anything featured on Polaris.

all singles are great, i'm looking forward to this

nice to see Dan doing harsh vocals again, they were a nice touch.

this is good, though it didn't exactly take my breath away.

this is a nice fucking track

Kinda reminds me of A Perfect Circle, dunno why. Even the vocals.

Groovy song though

tis goooood

Looking good.

Huh... I actually dig this.

His harsh vocals sound almost Black metal-ish in pitch

This is so good

This is a huge improvement over anything from Polaris. I liked that record more than most but this album is looking to be up with their debut in terms of quality.

Yeah this song was supergood, didn't expect this from 'em after Luminary

man this is really really god, totally unexpected! now I'm somehow hyped for this record...

Haven’t given a shit about this band in years but really enjoyed this

gud af

3:25 reminds me of something by Steven Wilson

Kinda reminds me of A Perfect Circle [2]

Great song, like it more than Luminary

it's a shame that this album is only going to be 35 minutes

It may be for the better. Most of their albums are so samey, a short runtime could help

Incredible. Hoping this new album is more quality over quantity. Read a review that said the album version of Smile is pretty different so I'm psyched to hear that with good production.

It is so strange that they released an unfinished version of Smile ?!?

I think it was something to tide fans over cuz they've gone over their usual 2 year album cycle. The single version of Nocturne has different production and misses the funky ass outro as well so they've done it before.

I enjoyed this more than I thought I would

This song is so damn good. Much better than Luminary or Smile.

"bloc I don't hear that at all"

Not only do I hear it in the music, but the vocals sound like Maynard at times. Especially at 0:25 and 1:25. I can totally hear him singing this.

Well, Dan is definetly a big fan of Maynard. I saw a tweet by him were he mentioned that he couldn't believe that he would see him in person. His "APC" Maynard influence can be best heard on Skyharbor - Patience, because he really delivers that sensitive and softer side of Maynard

Ah, well we have our answer then

Not bad, but it isn't blowing me away.

I really liked this. I think this album is definitely going to be better than Polaris on the whole.

yeah nah this is boring. The screams scattered throughout sound good tho

omfg wish I could listen right now. normally tesseract is like 50/50 with response on this site, most seem to dig this. did not expect dan to be screaming again.

4:44 holy fuck

Yeah that part fuckin slaps. Might be a metal moment of the year.

I guess I have to listen to this a second time.

another yawn, I don't know what it is but nothing these guys do grabs me anymore

I've always been like that (except for their song April), but this really impressed me

April was so satisfying to finally see live a few years ago!

This is....OK! A bit short and nothing grabs me too much but I love his screams. Album as a whole should be cool though.

ye this is actually ok.

apart from the vocals.

Dan is probably the best thing about the band. They are all extremely talented but Dan was always the glue.

this gives me hope that Sonder might actually be better than Polaris

Anything will be better than Polaris

Still can't get that section at 4:44 out of my head. Probably gonna be the best riff I hear all year.

Oh shit did Dan finally learn how to inject some bite into his screams?

Song is solid. More interesting than what this band usually does.

Ah, the other Durrzo returns

I can't listen right now, but I think Smile was the one they were playing on tour with Megadeth last year. Between King and Smile I am 100% on board with this album.

That said, this video is an uncomfortable watch.

What a great fucking track.

4:44 still crushes diamond

The part a bit earlier where Dan is screaming again is also majestic.

I'm definitely warming up to this a bit more. 'Luminary' was still a meh track though.

Those screams are good shit. Seriously hope he brings them back for this record.
