Man, this song hits deep. I lost two loved ones in close succession a few years back, and discovered y’all’s music in between. Your songs have helped me through the worst years of my life, helped me process my grief and eject my negative emotions. And then there’s this song… Fuck, man. So many great lines that put how I’ve fealt into words, this song FEELS how I have. I don’t know how to describe it. I couldn’t tell you the amount of times I’ve scream-cried this song on the way home, or how many times I’ve blared y’all’s music in general. Y’all always strike gold, but this one just hits me in a way the others don’t. “All that’s gold, does not glitter. And all we love, doesn’t live forever.”
thank you for the kind words, and im genuinely glad the music has helped dude. life is unrelentingly rough and music really do be the thing that helps get us through it. as my dad would say, just gotta keep truckin' and keep your chin up. it's all we can do. much love from the whole gang.
This might just be one of the greatest songs I've listened too in recent memory, you always keep elevating yourselves to newer heights with your material. Thank you so much.
It's always so incredible to me to hear other musicians that audibly have the same influences and grew up with the same music as me but are interpreting it differently. I treasure it so much because it feels like we're all part of a wave. It's the same when I listen to Prompts. Those guys are the most interesting and original what the japanese Metal scene has to offer at the moment. You are the same for the american metal scene to me. I love all kinds of bands no matter if big or small. But I gladly drop every release of a band as big as Slipknot when Desolate puts out a new track. I just loved this.
The outro for this is top notch fellas. Melancholy but hopeful has got to be the best vibe, but it is rarely pulled off so well. Sick little solo there at the end too!
Checked out this song as it was recommended to me on Spotify (& it had Punpun art) & i instantly fell in love with it. Went & listened to every single song afterwards & became a big fan ♥️🔥
The nostalgia from this song hit me like a semi truck, actually made me cry, no shame. I fucking love the post-hardcore stuff you guys are doing. This sound speaks to me on many levels.
I saw you guys a few years ago open at iMatter, got in late and only caught the last song, wasn't super into your style at the time but I loved the hand drawn EVA snare heads at your booth (tip box art was also great) so I grabbed Oyasumi pt1 and that has turned out to be one of the best decisions I've made, y'all are incredible and I cannot wait for this full release, much love
I didn't think you guys would be able to make a song more cathartic than Rebirth, but I've never been happier to be wrong. Thanks for everything you do.
This song was absolutely amazing and hit me so many ways. The intro gave me alexisonfire vibes and then bam nonstop fire the rest of the song. You guys keep getting better and better I cannot wait to hear the next album or EP from yall. Keep up the amazing work. Many blessings.
GOAT SHIT RIGHT HERE honestly the last 2 releases have solidified Vol. 2 being my album of the year then you drop this bomb of a track… you guys are so fuckin good, go hard kings o7
I love the meaning in the lyrics. Am I correct in that it's largely aimed at people who have nostalgia for old 90s and 2000s era anime? They're foolish in wanting back something that's passed, but also that foolishness is sorrowfully understandable.
the theme is nostalgia, yes. Visually there's loads of references across the board. a lot of it being stuff we grew up watching. lyrically it's a personal and specific story but I tried to keep it vague enough to be generally understood that the theme is nostalgia and the longing pain it invokes. hope this helps.
@@DESOLATENY As long as it wouldnt genuinely bother him, Ill take my chances. And besides, he promised me a tattoo a year ago when he said you guys were coming up to Boston, so he better let me get on stage to scream with him! 😭
