Ok, so here's my 2 cents... I accidentally discovered TesseracT with "Altered State" and I fell in love with the album. Tried their older stuff and wasn't feeling it as much as "Altered State". I simply love Ashe's voice and lyrics better than Dan's. However, I admit I decided to give this album a try, and the more I listen to it, the more I like it. I'm starting to view TesseracT like many of their long time fans... Each album should be judged on its own and not compared to other albums. Each album is a different/separate project with its own distinct sound or "flavor" and appreciate it for what it is on its own.

I would like to retract the harsh judgements on the shift in vocalists...after hearing Polaris as an entire body of work, all I can say is its fucking brilliant...the maturity in melodic sense, layering and approach have truly shown thru. Black Moth was the perfect vehicle to bring Dan to where he needed to be for this album.. Again, I retract ALL statements "against" Dan Vs Ashe...hats off to you Dan..this is the best work you've done. The band goes without saying...absolutely flawless

Grossly under-rated album. Can't stop listening. I think this is their best work.

This is fucking stunning, no other way to describe it. The overall progression of this album is beautifully written and the melancholic atmosphere of the soundscapes throughout throw my skin in pimples. It must be said also, Dan's vocal work has matured a lot since "One" and become rather quite stunning, he has taken off brilliantly from where Ashe left TesseracT and continuing the fresher sound the band is achieving. This really is a masterpiece!

I'm done. THIS is ART. Simply outstanding, magical. I can't even find appropriate words. Kudos to you, british fellas.

There's a reason this band is my favorite. Absolute perfection.

The raw emotion in Dan's voice is what makes the vocals from Tesseract so amazing, Seven Names is a perfect representation of that

I feel like it's more vocal driven than most of their other work, you've still got some nice poly rhythms and guitar work and stuff going on but the vocals are a lot more predominant than early stuff. I would go so far as to say the guitars are a little more rhythm based than before as well.

They continue to evolve in such pleasant ways while continuing to give us what drew us in in the first place.

Mesdames et Messieurs. Daniel f***ing Tompkins. A tiny tear fell from my eyes during the "chorus" of "Hexes".

I've been listening to this album in an eternal loop since it was released. Has been the grooviest month in my whole life. Thank you TesseracT

Tourniquet brought me to tears just now and I'm listening to this band for the first time (Lauren Babic's cover brought me here.) This is one of the most beautiful albums I've ever had the pleasure to listen to. Seriously thanks for sharing it. Pretty sure this band and album will stick with me for a long time in the future.

There were many discussions on Ashe and Dan. But, did anyone notice that in spite of the vocalist changes, every fucking album has been a revelation going higher and higher. Not that they care, but Acle Kahney ,Jay Postones, James Monteith and Amos Williams thank you so much for your music!!

Each song of this album is beyond the edge of infinity.

Phoenix moves me to tears at times. It's just that bloody good.

can't get over how well survivor flows into tourniquet. My two favorite songs on this album

Seriously, this album is without any doubts the finest example of how music can grow and evolve keeping all the elements that made me fall in love with this band, Dan, Ashe and even Elliot made each song sound unique, I honestly don't have a favorite album or singer, to me TesseracT is and always will be the soundtrack of my life. So many feelings... And emotions, the chills man... God damn this album has everything that I could ever ask for.

Wow wow. Every aspect of this sounds phenomenal so far. Bass for days!

I really apreciate that there's a full album video! I listen this album at least twice a week... And some times every morning to get energy/life motivation Thanks a lot Tesseract! See you in April in CHILE!

When Altered State came out, I went through a pretty rough heartbreak and Resist was the track that really resonated with me at the time and it was comforting. 2 years later, new heartbreak, and coincidentally, new album, and I have to say, Seven Names touches me in the same way. Thank you TesseracT. You make such beautiful music.

I swear, Tourniquet is the most beautiful song on this album

Been listening to survival constantly for the past few days, it's phenomenal

TesseracT never fails to give me the chills like no other band does. It's hard to explain the feeling I get when I hear them. It's like I get a step closer to achieving eternal divinity or something, it just gives me the peace of mind I always searched for in music. Dan, Sir you bring out the best emotions in me and if you are reading this, please know that I will be forever thankful for your music. It's beautiful. It's beyond spiritual.

I sat in my chair still, covered in my blanket with my eyes closed as I let the melody resonates in my head. What a brilliant and well produced album. I honestly did not think Daniel Tompkins could front two bands and still had this level of passion. His flames burn bright. Bravo!!

The end of Utopia thoughhhhhhhhhholyyyyyyshhhiiiiiieeeetttttt. It's not an exaggeration to say that the existence of this album is one of my favorite things about being alive.

Honest moment: I pre-ordered this album before the singles were out. Once I heard the singles, I will admit that I wasn't blown away and I was starting to have my doubts about this album. Then I come here to check out the album in its entirety and I was in awe at how much more variety the whole had to offer. I seriously can not wait for this to be on my phone!

I think this is one of very few albums you must listen as one. I repeatedly listened to it at work when programming algorithms. It's the mixture of atmospheric parts, crazy rhythms and the mostly soft vocals that makes this album great for me.

All I can say is Wow. This band just keeps getting better and better

tourniquet gave me instant chills. in love with this album

I cant stop listening to this album, Tourniquet is one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard, brings a tear to my eye. Its been about 15 years since I really paid any attention to metal in all honesty, the genre was sort of dead to me. I think the vocals, the lack of solos, the attention to bass and rhythm, this sound just transcends everything that was wrong with metal for me. Some kind of universal artistic beauty to it, like abstract sculpture it seems to speak a very fundamental language thats beyond any particular genre of music, or even music itself. I think any art that can shake off the trappings of the moment and resonate with you on that raw and candid a level is a rare thing to be cherished. Well done for joining Mike Patton on the 'metal can still be interesting' bench, that was a lonely looking bench in my musical world for a good while there.

I cannot begin to express how great they are live. When they played Phoenix, I couldn't contain my emotions. Tears were running down my face as I sung as loud as I possibly could. They're technical masters live. Not a single beat was missed. Every note was nailed. The light show was perfectly synced. They placed in a venue that's notoriously known for having terrible sound and acoustics, from where I'm from. They even defied those odds. I forgot where I was because their sound was impeccable. I've been a fan of Tesseract for quite some time, and I admit that before my first time seeing them live, I began to listen to other bands more than them. I have listened to One, AS, and Polaris so many times and it was losing a bit of magic. After seeing them live, my love for them has never been stronger. Hearing the soaring power and emotion of each song live was something I will never forget. I'm just rambling at this point. I just came here to say that Tesseract has solidified themselves as my favorite band ever in my 26 years of living.

Grooves, grooves everywhere....

Must have been 50 odd times I've listened to this album since they've released it. It's still amazing

I can listen to this album every day and I never get tired of it. Each time I listen, a discover a new element that makes me love this band even more. Grateful for being alive at the same time when TesseracT is making music. ♥

I have waited so long for a new Tesseract album ever since Dan came back. Best. Day. Ever.

one of the hugest sounding records i have heard! love the production!

Best combination of clean vocals and djent I've ever heard.

I think Tesseract just put out one of my favorite albums of all time.

Tracklist + timing : 00:00 1. Dystopia; 06:51 2. Hexes; 12:12 3. Survival; 16:34 4. Tourniquet; 22:33 5. Utopia; 28:01 6. Phoenix; 31:51 7. Messenger; 35:26 8. Cages; 40:50 9. Seven Names

I'm all about that bass.

lost count of how many times i've heard this album.

That SNAREEEEEE

+mellamoignacio Its the best fuckin thing. They left it as the last song because they knew that after that climax anything else that would come afterwards would sound poor in comparsion.

The snare on this owns my soul.

I saw this band way back with btbam. God all mighty!!! Love them!!! Will see them a 1000X's

Jesus Christ...I really don't know what to say...or write...This is the most beautiful piece of music I heard my entire life...I am forever grateful for bringing this masterpiece to life. Serious amount of mantears were shed before, during and after hearing Polaris. PURE PERFECTION

I honestly thought that nothing would be able to beat ALTERED STATE and Skyharbor's GUIDING LIGHTS as my all time favorites but this...OMG...

+Michał Drobiazg the main problem in alterade state was Ashe ... Dan makes the tesseract sound more unique...and why everyone dont even mention ONE .... their best album ...the reason to linsten Tesseract ..

+Nuno Dias I must disagree. I started to listen Tesseract after hearing Altered State. It's different from Polaris in almost every possible way but still unique and beautiful. in fact, even though I love Dan and know that everything he participates in instantly turns to gold,I thought that Ashe was a better fit for Tesseract and Dan was perfect for Skyharbor. That is of course until I heard Polaris. Ashe has a beautiful voice, he is a master of harmonies and all but god damn Danny... The best part of it all is that now we have Tesseract with Dan, Eric Emery (another brilliant artist) in Skyharbor and Ashe in VFTF. I could not want anything more...well maybe except a tour with all three of those bands. that would be a dream come true:)

+Michał Drobiazg i second this. I really enjoyed Dan in SKyharbor. Blinding white chaos because it had this raw intensity to it and guiding lights because it was more progressive and more cohesive effort. but now i also like their new singer and drummer. I also love ashe's band vftf too. would really love to see all three tour together.

I didn't even know that TesseracT released a new album for 4 months?! And here I was listening to Altered State and One repeatedly.

Phoenix is just... the absolute most feel good song I've heard in awhile...

I had to listen to it beginning to end before i made any conclusions. This album is a MASTERPIECE!!
