Bryan did an interview with Shawn the Butcher on Liquid Metal today. This video was all done with stop motion and it took the artist they worked with like 6 or 7 months to complete it.

The black metal sounding vocals in “God Knows” is a feature from the guitarist/vocalist of the band Portrayal Of Guilt

This is probably the HEAVIEST that knocked Loose has ever put out!!! These songs made me have the stank face on. It’s SOO good I have to listen to it again!!!!!

Knocked Loose has grown on me so much. Their vocals used to irritate me now i love them!

Coming off of their first two albums, this absolutely feels like a full fruition for KL. I think for the first time, they really have a vision for their sound, and boy does it show. Was not expecting this to appear in my Feed today, but I’m not disappointed.

This EP had absolutely no business being this heavy and amazing. The new guitarist has brought a whole new dynamic and they're on top of the genre right now 🔥

i've never been a huge Knocked Loose fan but I loved this. heavy, heartbreaking, and the video really adds to the experience of listening to the album.

I can tell that their guitarist loves the wilder side of Every Time I Die. Both of their songwriting styles emphasize winding, ever-shifting instrumentation. Knocked Loose are a great blend of instantaneous meat & potatoes hardcore and unpredictable, chaotic song-structures and riffs.

This is probably the best shit I’ve heard from the scene in awhile. They have advanced to a whole new level.

The "90's style" effect they use on the dissonant textural riffs is just a crunchy/driven tone through a light chorus effect, Deftones, Korn and Limp Bizkit use the same effect a whole bunch

The ep is fucking unreal. I think god knows is my favourite track ! Parts of it was definitely influenced by deathcore , which is badass. I think their new guitarist was a great addition to their sound. Bryan sounds amazing. This ep is probably their best.

I've listened to this EP probably a hundred times now (always from start to finish in order) and I have to say the entire thing feels like it builds up to that final line "when I saw that ghost was you all the lights went out." Just the raw emotion in his voice and portrayed with the instruments is like a shotgun blast to your soul. Fucking incredible.

Man. I'm literally speechless rn. I'm a big prog/metalcore/hardcore guy more than I am deathcore and the like, but I feel like this is the heaviest shit I've ever listened to. The transitions and samples almost give this a cinematic movie score, which is made even more evident by the great accompanying video. Might be the hype talking but this is S tier to me 🙏

This is some of the most exciting and refreshing metal I’ve heard in so long, I am absolutely blown away by this EP. I’m dying for more already

I love how other people listen to this the exact way I do - this is a beautiful album that everyone should know about. I almost hope KL only makes concept albums like this moving forward.

The guest vocals in God Knows is Matt from Portrayal of Guilt

this EP is some of the heaviest shit i’ve heard in awhile, next to Darkos release while ago.. this was fuckin AMAZING.

This release is absurd. Also, the guest from the Portrayal of Guilt frontman gave me the feels. I love them also.

The grief and guilt imagery in this video is unreal. What a piece of art through and through.

the new guitarist (nicko) can riff as hard as isaac and it definitely shows on this. (which is his first recording with KL)

This EP beat the living fuck out of me, holy shit. Loving the black metal influences and the Portrayal of Guilt feature.

This Band is truely a god-tier heavy Band and Will Putney is the god of produicing heavy music. And that is his best work yet. And probably KL's best release, even tho everything they've done is perfect imo. But they get better and better. This Band can't let me down.

This album fascinates me on so many levels, the writing in particular. It’s so fucking poetic.

some of, if not their best material to date. Contorted In The Faille and Permanent are some of my favorite songs they've ever done. :)

The video gives me insane Tool vibes

The same guy who made this video also did the video for Meshuggah’s I am Colossus. You can definitely see the same style in that video as well. It took him 8 months to do the video for Knocked loose’s ep.

Some of the best material I've ever heard from these guys. I love the band Orthodox and KL had a couple of moments on this EP that reminded me of them. As if I needed more reason to like this band.

This is a piece of brutal art. I love it alot !!

For the first time in my life, music has terrified me. I'm all about it. And of all the possible bands to do it, it was Knocked Loose. Not Devourment, not The Body, hell not even Jazz could shake me to my core quite like this EP.

If you want a similar listening experience, I'd reccomend reacting to Katahdin - "No Longer Room For Us. 3 song EP condensed into a single music video, played in the same style/genre as this, but it's a different beast all its own. This EP is fantastic. KL stepped their game up so hard and really let their death metal influence shine here. Great reaction as always 👍

I was at the gym when I first watched their KZfaq video for this EP and I just really don't think I needed to be doing cardio at that time. Almost had a heartattack. Fucking riiiipsss

This album gives me some serious Ulcerate vibes and I really like it. Has the same sort of choking atmosphere as Stare Into Death and Be Still

I love the atmosphere this EP gives off it's so dark and disturbing especially paired with the short film very tim Burton inspired I love it

Saw dudes last week, & not only was it the most pissed brutal fuck fest but these dudes were IMPECCABLY tight.. all the tempo changes & working around samples, stage presence was s tier just fucking 👌. KL gives me soo much hope & joy for the future of hardcore & Beatdown specifically. They arnt reinventing the wheel per say but they are authentically themselves, they know what the fans want & they deliver. Plus Bryan's voice sounds like nothing else in the game dude I mean it's similar to Andrew from Stray From The Path but even he isn't this PISSED.

@METALBIRB A Tear in the Fabric of Life is a work of art, musically and with this animated video visually as well! It makes such an impact on so many levels, you wanna bang your head while your jaw drops to the floor and yes, while being bonecrushing this EP as a whole makes me get emotional at times. The variety of styles, the tempo changes, the rhythm, the breakdowns, the vocals (lead and backing), the atmosphere and those little melodies and riffs that crawl underneath your skin and add an extra layer to the maniacal music just makes this EP flawless!

as a Knocked Loose fan, I immediately preordered the ep on vinyl once watching it. My god what an experience. So awesome to hear new music still creating experiences and innovating music to be something bigger then just what it was.

I honestly don’t know if any of them has lost a loved one in a car crash but oh my god the emotions and details and portraying them feel so goddamn personal

I used to think reaction videos were so silly but now i can say you reaction videos of KL are my favorite

I AM WITH YOU NOW

I love all the references to their older music in this EP

I’m gonna die in the pit when I see them soon!🤘🏻🔥🥵

I always finding myself clenching my fist very hart whenver i even a listen a second to Knocked Loose

It does destroy! Thank you!

Thanks for your videos dude!

Just saw them live tonight in Wichita Kansas with Gojira and Alien Weaponry. I was completely floored. Wasn’t big on them, but after seeing them, I’m a fan. The EP is sick.

Thanks for letting me know this exists!

That third plug had me ready for this video, then it was about a metal review!?!? I was teased lol But for real this was a great EP and God Knows is my favorite song by the band to this date

This EP was amazing! Didnt even know it was dropping today, thought it was later in the year. Ill take it! Also gotta ask… what are the lights in the back to go with sound??

Seen them last weekend and they are great live.

This fucking knocked me on my ass. The New Trivium was amazing but Knocked Loose gave me that same urge that i had to break things and laugh that i used to get when i was young.

SEPULCHRAL is the word that perfectly embodies the feeling of the video, music, and lyrics. Absolutely incredible EP.

I just can’t stop listening to this EP. Definitely their most standout work to date imo.

I went on boneworks vr and started crowdkilling npcs 😂😂😂

6:38 the exact reaction I had lmao

They really leveled up with this one.

I havn't really listened to this band before. Sounds heavy as hell, the kind I like. Gotta listen to more cause im not feeling the voice yet. One of those early riffs made me immediately think of Pig Destroyer(my favorite heavy band).

I love knocked loose and will always love them!!🤘🔥🔥

Great concept for an EP

SHEEEEESH. It's 3 AM, I'm way too fucking hype after watching this.

4:39 is where me and Drew lost our shit! Huge Gojira vibes

An absolute banger 🤘🤘🤘🤘

ITS SO FUCKING GOOD!

That intro is boutta get you demonetized man haha. This is a fucking insane EP. I didn't realize a whole ass short film came with it until I saw your video. This shit had me fucking moshing in my room

Its growing on me!

Damnnnnn knocked loose went off. I've always been hit or miss with their stuff but this ep is straight fire. Really impressed with the song writing here

Been here since the vfw days..now creating a new genre.

Amazing intro

This album is the new standard

This EP gave me chills. The last time i felt that was when i listened to Jane Doe by Converge for the first time.

Yes finally

I like this more than the last album.

Their guitarist is absolutely amazing omg

This is ridiculously good

PLEASE do the new Angelmaker material, such a knee slapper. Vengeance is my favorite, they stated with that track they wanted to pay homage to true OG death core fans and boy it delivered!!

Nightmarish in the best way possible. So heavy and the riffs 💦 love the fills, off 90s sounding licks

I have that same oscillating fan.

Knocked loose forever my man hahaha this shit was so sick

Listened to this EP once. Now I walk with a limp.

EP of the year. This is some heavy fucking shit !

The fucking vocals man

Contorted is my favorite for sure. Such a filthy fucking song

The odd time signatures on this album really do it for me. God these guys fuck hard!!!!

Dude, it's so good. I saw an interview with the singer. He said his favorite band is DISEMBODIED. Makes so much sense!!!

I usually listen to an album or two while working, scared of doing this one though because i might just start moshing relentlessly.

Yup, that was definitely a plug

LET'S GO BABY! I can finally watch this now! My favorite reactor on YT

Music video is frickin insane

In my honest opinion this is the best material they’ve ever put out.

Saw them and Kublai Khan together. My face has melted damage.

So fucking bad ass.

Best music video ever

God knows makes me two step my fucking feet off

This ep absolutely slaps

Fuck me this album is amazing. If you want some shit that’s even harsher though, you should definitely check out some of Frontierer’s new shit. It goes………hard

One of the records of the year for me...not less

I cant be the only one who heard some OG Suicide Silence inspiration in this

11/10 ep no cons ofc 🥰

Say whatever you want, but this whole album is really emotional for me, especially after reading the lyrics. I've been in a similar situation, but the emotions wrapped up in this come from a worse experience.

Let's go, Brandon.

Wait.... there's new KL???????????
