The Tesseract Megathread: Sonder Released

[John_Strychnine]

Just got sent this by Acle to check out.

The whole album is ridiculous. Altered state was incredible, but this is just next level. Production rules hard too.

 

[wankerness]

Does it have harder-edged stuff again? I quite liked most of "One," but really didn't like Altered State one bit, I didn't like how the entire thing was so massively drenched in dreary vocal overdubs and every single song was just the same vocal style over and over again. Is this another step down the vocal overdub trail with no growling? The sample above is unclear. I like that the vocals are back to being more ethereal in the mix, but would be happy if not every song was that style.

In a scene where Veil of Maya and Born of Osiris are releasing meh-fests, holy .... is this refreshing.

Goddamn it's good to hear Dan with them again.

 

[Slunk Dragon]

I feel like Dan is taking hints from what Ashe did, and is making it his own. Not sure how I feel about this song, but I'm sure a few more listens will tell me.

Been dying for some new TesseracT, with either vocalist. So we'll see what the whole album is like.

First listen - Needs a intro, I miss Ashe
Second listen - Should be heavier, I miss Ashe
Third listen - Sounds like they've been jamming some for dream pop and taking some ideas from that, I miss Ashe
Fourth listen - Salp bass, heavy Groove and dream pop the logical conclusion of all the music that I enjoy I love Dan's vocals 10/10.

Tesseract are playing Australia but I'll be in the middle of my HSC and I would have a test that day and the day after...

I know also Periphery is coming too.


fu&* the test go banging, if you prepare yourself, you shouldnt why have to study the day before. Go to the gig, take it eassy, dont drink, once finish, go home, sleep.

Always pumped for new Tesseract. Altered State has gotten steady rotation since it came out. It's a damn shame Ashe isn't on vocals anymore, I thought he fit really well, but Dan's back so yeah...greatness is on the horizon!!!!

New stuff sounds great.....always pumped for new Tesseract.

I saw Acle comment on a post yesterday on FB where he said that particular track is his least favorite on the album and that the label/manager wanted to "play it safe"

 

[BlackMastodon]

Just listened to the new song and I think it's pretty decent. I like it better than anything I heard off of Altered State so that's a plus.

 

[Tr3vor]

Whoa, the tone on the guitars in that song is strange, I like it. Its going to be more than a month till the release of the album? I can't wait.

I always kinda liked Altered State more than One, I wonder how this one will sit with me.

 

[Radau]

I dig it. Already bought my tickets for October, should be rad to see them with Dan this time around

 

[HeHasTheJazzHands]

Whoa, the tone on the guitars in that song is strange, I like it.

I agree. It sounds like they're running single coils in the middle position or something. Sounds like early King's X on steroids.

i feel like this is becoming a new trend. one that i particularly enjoy.

the downside: some people might get scared away from an album with a teaser track that isn't very good.

the upside: if you actually dig the teaser track, the rest of the album should blow you away.

I know also Periphery is coming too.

I agree. Hsc isnt the be all and end all of your life!
When i saw tesseract a few years ago with periphery in sydney they blew periphery away..in saying that recent periphery shows have neen amazing. Cant wait to see both these bands in october! October is a good month for gigs

Quick question: Showstubs says that the VIP packages do not include a ticket, yet when you click enlarge image it says you do receive a ticket. Anyone know which it should be, or would it vary from venue to venue?
