Change (In The House Of Thornhill) "Arkangel" - REACTION / REVIEW 

Drummer is so under rated, Dudes a beast

I really like this, if I wanted another Dark Pool...I'd just listen to Dark Pool imo, this is how bands should kind of evolve their sound, yes...it's similar to what Loathe is doing and the Deftones inspiration is fucking present for sure, but I dig this way more than I should, some would say the vocals are buried in the mix, not really, I have good hearing and pretty good sound setup and I enjoy the vocal approach, reminds me of MUSE too, production is very tight and on point :) They still have their signature guitars mixed into this and that proggy part is lovelyyyyy Excited to see what comes next, Casanova is decent, this is what they should do IMPRESSIVE

Wow, this was incredible. Love the vibes. Sounded exactly like a Deftones track.

Metalbirb I LOVE the little snippets of songs you’re starting to add at the end. A great touch to your video’s

I want to hear every form of thornhill they’re willing to try. They keep bringing the chuggs so I ain’t goin nowhere ✊

Loved the deftones vibe on this one.

World needs more of this Music…It’s like the Deftones walked into the Crow movie expect his voice fits this perfectly

this title is perfect ;)

I can’t wait to see them tour with Holding Absence & Dayseeker in the U.S

Damn I really need to get into Deftones cause I love new Thornhill's stuff

If you want more Deftones vibes, the new Moodring single "Disintegrate" is really cool.

Wow i love how you gave actual examples in your video!

I loved this single and it has been on repeat for me since it released and the music video was very reminiscent of The Crow. I can understand why some fans are divided about it but I can't wait to see what else Thornhill has on the horizon🤘

I don’t mind this new sound. I rly like the vibes they’re pulling out

a little bit of “Deftones”, a little bit of “Karnivool”, a little bit of “Filter”… but general I do like this song, even if it’s totally different from the previous album.

I can hear a lot of Muse influence on this one. Overall an amazing track with a huge bridge.

as a diehard Deftones guy, i hear influences but it’s more like a heavier Muse imo. love this song tho…. i also feel like the drums @ the end of song were a tribute to the Cure- Burn (being the main single for The Crow)

I freaking LOVE this

Sounds like a metal version of 90s indie band 'Mansun' to me. Wouldn't be surprised if there was some influence.

I definitely agree about your points about how The Dark Pool had something more original or prominent about it. I do like this song more than Casanova (I do like both of them). My favorite part of this song is the first verse part when Jacob starts with the “fly away” lyrics with that guitar chord playing in the background. That specific part sounds so good to me. Reminds me a lot of the same sound structures you had mentioned about Deftones and the late 90s to early 2000s sound. I grew up in that era and I can definitely hear it. I really can’t wait to hear these two singles within the context of their next album. Love this band🤘

outro/instrumental break down was the best part

This was my #1 song for 2023

I really enjoy both their singles. Casanova was super groovy and I feel like you can dance to that song. My only problem is that jacob's voice is so tucked in the mix it's hard to know what he's saying without lyrics

Love love love the song and the video gives me The Crow vibes.

Whoooooaaaatsssup bro 😜🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾

Lmao Epic Title! Agrre def sone Deftones Vibes but it's still diff enough I like the Vibes

Lets fukin goooooooo!!

Butterfly ep was the best album for me tbh!

that bridge progression reminded me of Pneuma by Tool

Take a shot every time you hear "Deftones"

This song definitely sounds like a Deftones songs (bit ironic) but, hopefully, they'll find their own sound. Sounds good though. 🤘🏾

I loved this one, like everything else, from Thornhill. You HAVE to check out the new Rolo Tomassi tracks "Drip" and "Cloaked". They are BANGERS, and their new album is out in a few weeks.

If you like it, simply enjoy it, if you don't like it, is it to hard to abstain from negative comments?

Deftones inspired loathe and loathe inspired thornhill.

Pure love. Thornhill.

I like it. The first 2 tracks just aren't as memorable for me as anything off Dark pool, but still feel this is a band continuing their rise. If it's a love letter to deftones, they are nailing those vibes.

"Not every song needs a breakdown" - says with a painful face😂

I feel like someone watched The Crow before making this music video

I agreed with a lot of points on this video, but I think originality shouldn't be taken into consideration if a band like Greta Van Fleet exists. Actually a combination, of Deftones, Muse and Meshuggah is pretty fresh IMO

If the next track on the album starts off hard it’s gonna feel like a breakdown.

This track gave me extreme Karnivool vibes especially the ending. This song is 1000 times better than Casanova imo. They found a way to include the ethereal sound of The Dark Pool and mix it in with the 90s/00s hard rock style and I love it. Definitely wish they would’ve expanded on The Dark Pool, but if they are going in this direction, they should have more songs like Arkangel.

Like this better on first listen. I understand that bands cant always repeat the same content over and over, so I'm hopeful for the album, but not the most excited.

is it just me or it still sounds like TDP-ish Thornhill if you take out the drowned out vocal production and give it more complex (generic) djent riffs? i don't really quite get the dislike on this song

Pls react to new Northlane song

React to Northlane - Plenty

I thought this was way better than Casanova. Also I hate the deftones comparison to every band that sounds even remotely similar to them but yeh… this one is undeniable

Really digging the grungy sound hope they don't completely abandon TDP sound. Love the atheistic of the video!

I've had this song on repeat, I much prefer arkangel to Casanova

I'm not sure how I feel about this single or direction they seem to be heading. I thought they created their identity with TDP and I really hope they don't leave that identity.

I just discovered TDP like 6 months ago, and was blown away. It felt like a hole I didn't even know existed was filled in my music heart. The ambience, the vocals, the overall feel of that album was new and fresh to me. I was stoked that they released a new track when casanova came out and couldn't wait to hear it. Afterwards I was a disappointed. Same with this one. I'm not saying it's not "good". I'm just past the 90s. I'm always looking for something new and exciting. Style change is fine. I mean I love BTBAM and some of their albums took a bit to digest, but I love all of it. Because despite a sound change, they were still at their core BTBAM and made the music bend to their sound. I cant fight my gut on this. Not my cup-o-tea

its got deftones vibes but its more of a 90s/early 2000s Goth Rock vibe to me.

Honestly I like this sound for them more then their older stuff

completely agree. I feel like a lot of people only found out about deftones in the past couple of years, so they love it and find this style fresh but for me it feels like they've gone from something that was cutting edge to something quite boring and dated by this point.

Can you react to Dayshells new song blindside?

For me personally, I am saddenend that they didn't continue their sound from their previous release. However, this holds true for every single previous release - album, ep or single. At the same time, I love everything they touch, so I am incredibly excited for what comes next. Until now, the band hasn't done any wrong and they are one of my favourites.

It doesn’t sound like Deftones!

To me this is nothing special that little re-playability and the dark pool was special. Even their early Ep stuff was pretty amazing.

I get why some people might enjoy it, but personally, I really miss their sound from The Dark Pool. Even there I noticed the vocalist was doing less and less screaming, so I'm not really surprised by this sound switch but still disappointed a little. It simply doesn't fit with where I'm at musically right now. Maybe someday I'll enjoy it more, but for now, it's not something I'd go back to. I still really like some of the creative ideas they bring to the table.

Definitely like their older stuff more in my opinion, honestly doesn’t feel like a logical transition of sound for them, Casanova was pretty out there and I think they’re changing too much with this track too honestly, still like the band but I don’t think their new stuff is for me. I also think this is a huge Deftones influence and there are a bunch of bands doing this already and this just seems like they’re a little behind in the game when it comes to incorporating that influence and it seems a little forced.

Not a big fan of this. Never have heard another track from them and this isn’t something that will have me digging for more. I lean towards heavier stuff than this but can still enjoy a good grunge/Alt track. I’d like it better as an instrumental, the vocals just don’t do it for me

Why they do this boring/generic change? They have a really unique sound. This is so sad.
