Shadow Of Intent - The Heretic Prevails (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO) 

Shadow of Intent: " How many vocal styles should we use" Ben duerr: "Yes"

Breakdown this, Breakdown that, and nobody mentions that heavenly solo.

3:19 That breakdown is brutal gives me the chills. Thank you Dickydines show for showing me this band.

He did like 5 different vocal styles in that breakdown. Ben's honestly one of the best vocalists in the game

My 4 year olds favorite band for the last year. She always asks for "shadow" whenever we're in the car. Raising them right \m/

Fine, I'm not an elitist anymore. Deathcore, I used to hate you but now I do admit that you're a badass subgenre indeed. Will you ever forgive me?

I played this for my dog, now he is my owner.

This whole album is just one big HALO reference.

Just stumbled on them today. Good lord his vocal range is insane.

2017 has been good to metal.

This has to be one of the best choruses in any deathcore song ever

ASMR for metalheads.

1:48 shook my whole house

I like Slaughter to prevail, Oceano, ETC. However this band has more density to their sound. Guitar is a little more involved and less chug. I am impressed. All bands are still amazing tough LONG LIVE DEATHCORE!

As much as that breakdown shatters my bones, that chorus gives me chills every time

A band dedicated to one of the greatest gaming franchises ever devised. I'm so glad to be a part of this community.

New slaughter to prevail and New Shadow of intent in 1 day, sweet

One night my brother scoops me up and says he has a surprise for me. The Faceless and Rings of Saturn concert at the Palladium. The first band that opened (In depths&Tides) was one of the best performances I've seen. I go up to their mercy table and bought one of everything. As I'm walking away a dude comes up to me and introduces himself as the vocalist amd said his name was Ben. We shot the shit and ended up talking a bit and becoming friends. A year later, I am so Damn glad I met him because he is ticking CRUSHING it. Can't wait to receive both of my bundles and see you guys live some day. Keep it metal guys.

I really like the keyboards/synths

As a metalhead who doesn't like Deathcore at all I gotta say this is awesomely heavy, melodic and symphonic!

Shadow Of Intent next to Lorna Shore has become one of the most original deathcore bands , i am extremely proud of you guys for taking deathcore to the next new level

I was listening to this with headphones from the Dollar Tree... They turned into ash.

The entire band deserves as much attention as Ben! They're all amazing 🤘🏼👹🤘🏼

It sounds so brutal yet it's about Master Chief from Halo lmao

I feel like all these Deathcore bands heard SS say the genre was dead and are showing them otherwise lol

Shadow Of Intent are going to be the new kings of Deathcore sometime soon. Everyone will know their name. They will not rot.

That range is insane. He takes it from the early Agony scene to Slaughter to prevail without skipping a beat.

I need a Halo 3 where all the voice overs are done in Ben's vocals

Is this the beginning or the end? Your fate’s in the palm of my hands Betwixt the light and the void within the heart of the front. Beyond the reaches of god Smothered in triumph and loss Alas, the nightmare nears it’s end as the hourglass drains of its sand Betwixt the light and the void Beyond the reaches of god I am worthy of the conquering of all Ignition of the fuse The kingdom to fall Why do you continue in strife Reclaimer? Surrender the construct And succumb to a painless end I shall never bow to a maddened tyrant obsessed with murderous protocols I shall not bow to thee Infamous name etched into stone since the dawn of days. Sheltered beyond the realm The secrets of Kethona have fertilized the seeds Bludgeoning sycophant legions spewing forth from the beast. Infinite nightmares unleashed Spreading their toxic disease I will not rot Nor will I become a trophy of the tyrant of the kingdom to fall The time has come The will is done I will not rot Nor will I become a trophy of the tyrant of the kingdom to fall Why do you continue in strife Reclaimer? Surrender the construct And succumb to a painless end I shall never bow to a maddened tyrant obsessed with murderous protocols I shall not bow to thee As we near the end of the tale Tombs no longer beg for inversion The heretic prevails! Horrors discovered Now have been cleansed I will not rot Dismemberment of the myriad Flailing as they suffocate in silence Recollected only in lore As the seeds brought forth from Kethona begin to fertilize, endless indoctrination proceeds to blanket the ring No longer an end As a new beginning emerges at last Why do you continue in strife Reclaimer? Surrender the construct And succumb to a painless end I shall never bow to a maddened tyrant. I have destroyed the ring and declared my legacy

I love the background music way too fucking much, was expecting to see more comments about it

Please never change your style, guys. This is perfection!

Bed Duer is part of my holy trinity of vocalist I must experience in person. I will give my left arm to see these wonderful people live

I cannot wait for the entire album to be released

Drop dem lyrics bois so I can worship the Flood the right way.

2024 and still jaming shadows of intent fucking beasts

Seing so young people perform deathcore at such a high quality is truly inspiring

3:20 killed my neighbors

Ben's vocals are the best in the business right now.

every time i listen to this song it feels like the first time again except now i know all the words 11/10 experience

This is EASILY becoming my favorite band.

Boyz.

Shadow of Intent just placed itself in my personal top 5 bands ever. Amongst Erra, TAIM, Parkway Drive and Vulvodynia.

*I was listening to this with my dog now he’s a werewolf..*

4:15 is that the Halo "no shields" beeping I hear very quietly?

Incredible again!

I just found these guys and I feel like I did the first time I heard Rings of Saturn. Love it.

"WHY DO YOU CONTINUE IN STRIFE, RECLAIMER? SURRENDER THE CONSTRUCT, AND SUCCUMB TO A PAINLESS END."

So is this what most of their music is like? Or in the vein of this? Vocals as if they came from hell themselves, guitars that aren't just chugging the entire time and have so sick melodies to it?

I can’t believe I found a metal band that has a album that’s basically “Halo the Album” and even their name is a Halo reference 😂 Halo is SO important to me so this is honestly a frickin blessing ;-;

one of the best songs i´ve ever heard

This is still the song that made many of us discover SOI. Fast forward.. they are still my favourite band! 🔥

This is the best deathcore song ever made.

You guys look as you were 18 in this clip but you sound as you were doing death core for 180 years - brilliant, awesome, keep it coming ;)

I get goosebumps every time the bass hits

I never regret listening this after i watch dickeydines's top 10 insane breakdowns breeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

Holy absolute fucking shit, why have I not heard of these guys before today? I’ve been playing Halo for more than half my life and these guys have the lore and storyline down to the letter. Not to mention the absolutely brutal growls the vocalist has. And the breakdowns? Heavy enough to destroy Rings. Jesus H. Christ. I think I’m in love.

i still can't get over Ben's vocal range. hands-down best vocalist evet.

ONLY two million views!? I swear I gave two million alone! Underrated. As my husband screams not again please.

This band is wildly talented in every area.

I involuntarily smile while listening to this. Never happened anything like this before. I love it!

Best album of 2017, unreal boys.

This band filled a hole in my soul i never knew existed.

Discovered the band with this. Most epic introduction to a band i ever had. I'm a huge fan since then.

how in the fucking hell haven't I heard these guys before, vocals on another level.

Fuck yeah dudes!!!!! You are gonna climb to the top of the death metal world. Your gutturals man.... God Damn!!! Every time I hear them I just think about how much I gotta step my game up again

The slow-mo extreme head nods in sync is what gets me bro… the chills

I found this band not long ago and honestly I love their music and the melody.. The drums is brutal.. Love it.

Just so you know, you guys are my favorite band ever. I love your lyrics and your vocals with orchestral background is amazing composition I hope the next album with keep the orchestral sound!!

Ben is halo

So I've just stumbled across this band. I'm absolutely blown away. I'm normally not a fan of deathcore, most of it sounds the same to me. But this is different. His vocals are unique and there's no shortage of melody, instead of just chug chug chug. The piano has that haunting style of Make Them Suffers first two albums, which I loved. Can you recommend more deathcore bands similar to this one? Gracias

I come back here every couple days just to watch this masterpiece. Ben will always be one of the greatest deathcore vocalists 🤘☠️

ITs the song from the Facebook video!!

actually when i listen to deathcore like this i want to pray to God, because of these beautiful melodies.

I could care less about what sub genre bands choose to play. Metal is Metal and I LOVE ALL OF THEM!

This is fucking sick, bassist was shredding the whole song, vocals are the best in the game to me personally. He sounds just as good live if not better, which is rare.

P E R F E C T I O N

Been waiting for this song since I saw the teaser on Facebook and this is exactly what I wanted to hear

my god, it's gets better every time I listen to it. I'm at a point where I can't stop

listening to this takes me into the world of the Spartans

Dude , this chorus combined with those high vocals are amazing

The guys who played the keys on this track did an awesome job, the song is incomplete without them.......

I never thought I would hear someone who could sing heavier and deeper vocal growls than the infamous Alex Terrible

Who said that deathcore is dead?

Still don't know how this doesn't have 1 mill + views by now

There’s no way I can relive the feeling I had when I first heard Shadow of Intent. But that doesn’t stop me from trying 😁

Remember they're only like 18 years old and in this video they are extremely talented

I played this to my cat He still loves me :)

Hi, 3:18 for tickets to hell.

My favourite bands, Shadow of intent, Archspire, Slaughter to prevail , Infant Annihilator,

Dude, the vocal delivery though, that’s so sick man

who else thinks reclaimer should be the soundtrack to a halo game or at least a song from it in a game?

One finest of hell. One finest of throat. One finest of music. Uhh thats heavy. Yes. Why i felt that ive too late to listen to this ?

One of the best breakdowns in history:

That first breakdown is insane

imagine driving home after a shitty day and this song smacks your speakers. The cartharsis will clean your anger till you arrive and you can be the best father/brother/human regardless what crap hits you that day.

I am gonna go out on a limb and say..... Ben is without a doubt, the most promising vocalist to come along in a while. The vocals he is capable of manufacturing give me chills. Simply extraordinary. Ben............ WOW!

3:48 minha parte favorita😍😍

That layered scream at 148 into the breakdown gives me fucking goosebumps

I have never sang a song at work all day like I do this song, one of the most badass songs ever.

I've been waiting so fucking long for this song
