Re: What are you listening to right now?
This is a great song, but something about the music, particularly the synths, makes it too "romantic" and "sensual" for my taste. Do you get what I mean?

Re: What are you listening to right now?
I hear you, Max. I really like Dayseeker as a band. The synths are, to me, what make them have that pop-metalcore sound. Caskets/Captives shares some of that and more and more bands are incorporating it - Dreamwake, Normandie, Northlane, ERRA, Too Close to Touch, Siamese. I think it's all an off shoot of Bring Me The Horizon.Addicted To Pain wrote: ↑Wed Sep 18, 2024 3:08 pm

Re: What are you listening to right now?
I have heard one other Dayseeker song, which is Without Me. I actually like it better because I think that the synths convey more of a sad tone, as opposed to Sleeptalk.Schulzy wrote: ↑Fri Sep 20, 2024 10:30 pm I hear you, Max.

Re: What are you listening to right now?
What you are "keying" in on is an important element of that band and their sound. They are able to convey emotion through the synths. You talked about the "sensual" and "romantic" side along with the "sad" tone. The first songs I heard from them were "Neon Grave" - which is about death/loss - and "Dreamstate" - longing for somebody in another world. Both very emotional.Addicted To Pain wrote: ↑Sat Sep 21, 2024 12:33 amI have heard one other Dayseeker song, which is Without Me.

Bring Me The Horizon captured the "punctuation power" of synths on "Can You Feel My Heart".
Normandie uses the synths more sparingly but primarily for the "power" or to express angst.
Caskets adds the synths for more of an atmospheric effect - make it "bigger" sounding and "dreamy".
And another band I forgot about is Rain City Drive. Seems like the synths are there to primarily underline the guitar.

Re: What are you listening to right now?
Because I'm in a nostalgic mood. Fun fact, this track was actually made out of a longer album track to appease the record company asking for 'a hit'. They just took the chorus from that album track, sped it up and shoved a rap verse in there. The band hates it.... and despite that, it's still a total banger.
