QUEEN QUEEN QUEEN, ICON

So glad you're back, I've really missed the flawless blend of obscure theory, new music recommendations and dry humor this channel provides.

WHEEL has been one of my absolute favorite songs of the year so far. It is so brutal and in your face. The ending layer with the high pitched bell sounds added is just *chefs kiss* brilliant!

the editing at 9:00 killed me thanks

Victory Over the Sun is one of the best out right now! This is awesome!

listened to this album for the first time last night. masterpiece.

Yeah man killer as always and glad to see you back!

Thanks for the analysis and it's good to see you back!! :)

Beautiful, happy to see this video. I thoroughly enjoyed this album when it came out, it's amazing how much of this flows seamlessly for as complex as it is. P.S. editing your head onto a frozen still of your body is one of the funniest things I've seen in a while. Love it.

you and i have similar appreciations of voice leading. a man of culture, clearly. this video ruled, glad youre back bud

Just getting in their stuff recently. Some of the best metal tracks I've heard in a while!

Somehow missed that this record came out, so I found this video doubly helpful

Awww yeah, super excited to see a new video from you! Never heard of this band before, so it looks like I’ve got some homework to do-this sounds epic.

first I was introduced to thantyfaxa by you, now I like this one too . thanks man !

Is anyone else hearing shades of early Kayo Dot in this?

To me, it sort of sounds like what you have labeled as a Go could also be a D#7 to G#m movement (VI7 / ii). And then, what you have labeled as E#o could be a G#m6 to D#9 movement (ii / VI7). The thing is, usually including the secondary dominant VI7 pushes the harmonic 'center of gravity' towards the ii. But here, in its first appearance, we quickly move away into the A#m (iii), and in the second appearance, we never move back to the ii, instead going right from VI7 to I. I feel like this sort of subversion makes it sound as though the music is moving backwards, an unnatural and unsatisfying (not in a bad way!) kind of sound. But because these are kind of unnatural movements for these chord functions, I also think that voice leading plays a bigger role in giving it a sense of momentum, as you point out.

Such a great album! And loved the "non metal" passages! Really refreshing!

fckin SCARCITY

Enjoy the Scarcity show tonight! Going to be killer

It took me way too long to process that you said "new metal" and not "nu metal"

haha darn I had an idea to make a joke of that while editing but forgot... glad it made it through anyway

🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

Just curious, have you heard of the band Rototypical? Their (so far only) album The Tactician would be right up your alley, very btbam inspired and extremely dense. Like PII, I feel like someone could do their master's thesis based on this album alone. Would be cool to see you analyse some parts of it

Microtonality? In Metal? Very interesting for sure..

Victory over the Sun need more exposure. They create interesting and palatable music. The new release is killer. I don’t know much about music theory but have always had difficultly when listening to music like this to “find the time signature”. You talking about looking at rhythm/time additively is how I think I follow along to music. Curious to learn a bit more about it! Do you have a list of stuff you’ve been enjoying so far in 2023? I’m always looking for new music and think you’d have a great selection!
