he would have been proud ❤️

I miss him

The great songs about Kyle started with K.F. by the Word Alive. What a song

❤❤❤❤

@@Nickr3000 Monomania is an amazing album and KF is my favorite song off the album.

Same!

@Frank Hercher That's awesome! Me and the original commenter are close in age, I'm 31, so this band was VERY influential in my young teen years. Glad they are popular to a wider audience!

I'm 31 now, I feel you man, crazy how fast time goes 😭

@@sherman614 Welcome to the 31 crowd!

33 here bro! feel better than i ever have and i dont plan on ever stopping \m/ fast life - for life.

You can tell he's really working on his clean vocals. Really amazing.

he had to step up im glad he did hes doing an amazing job the last 3 songs are very impressive

i do agree ! he has really worked on his clean vocals, sounds insanely good now !!

I like how he does certain parts above his typical vocal register when he knows it would have been Kyle's part. This is my favorite track for this album so far.

He stepped up and I'm super glad he did.

He’s always had this ability.

How could you disrespectfully ask this question though? xD

😎😃

Same here. I wish I had seen them perform live with Kyle.

Definitely go back and listen to some of their older albums, Kyle's vocals were SO incredible. He really made the band stand out and to me made it S tier metalcore back in the day.

same. hope to see them live one day.

Such a shame. You missed out on the "golden" days of WCAR. I seen them live with Kyle and they where incredible!!! I'm so glad they're continuing to produce quality music! Even without Kyle! Rip!

Yea, same. Except it wasn't because I hadn't heard of them. Just wasn't my cup of tea at all. Since he has been gone tho? This band has been fantastic!

No matter how hard or soul-crushing or heartbreaking things are, believe they happened for a reason and maybe the timing wasn't right. Keep your head up, Life's full of a random surprises and endless emotions to be had. Similar situation here so I feel you.

That's the thing about music, even some songs that are unrelated (to a degree) to something you're going through can still hit you in the feels. This one does for me too for a similar reason, it's just the words and how you interpret those words, that's the beauty of music. It's the one thing that stays when everything and everyone else is gone. It's the one thing that stays loyal.

I agree with this sentiment wholeheartedly, and I hope this does not come off as rude at all, but when you say "everything", does that include their self-titled record?

@@Straw_Breaker I dont know why people say this. Their self titled album was good. It's just different, but honestly the whole album has so many bangers.

@@blorbo5800 don’t get me wrong, I like it too; I just remember a lot of people being quite disappointed in it at the time and I can totally understand why.

@@Straw_Breaker it does lol

Keep pushing through the pain It gets easier with time I only hope that you can find the peace you so deserve May your son rest easily, man

I'm so sorry for your loss.. I hope you can hold him again in your heart when you listen to music you love..

I beat it when I was 18.I so sorry for your loss, I pray for a cure. Everyone should register as a Bone Marrow transplant. ❤🙏

Sorry for your loss. 😢

So sorry to hear that bud =[ Prayers for you in this difficult time of mourning.

Oooooofffff.... THAT is a HORRIBLE thing to encounter! Guy comes over, tells you he loves you, and next thing you know, he's dead by hanging himself... ROUGH!!!

I know exactly how you feel, it would take alot to explain all the things I've been through, but I'll say one or two things in a shorter way, I was in the foster system for almost 14 years, in so many homes, most abusive and the others, I was, uhm, R worded by four different boys and one that was in his twenties, and even when I got out of the system I never was able to make friends irl, so I tried making friends online om quotev, that..didnt end well, was Catfished two times, one of those catfishes didn't do it on purpose, they thought it was a roleplay, while the whole time I thought I was in a relationship with him, my deppression was made worse there because I had one friend uhm, "commit" and I had to take care of three other peoples mental states, constantly begging them not to hurt themselves or worse, I've been cheated on more times than I can count, straight up ghosted and abandoned many times, so yeah, I really just gave up on trying to make friends, no one ever stays, no matter what the f*ck they say, I can't even count the amount of times I've f*cking heard "well I'm different, I won't leave you" I'm still alone, and I always will be, I can't trust anyone anymore, and that makes me even worse..all I want is someone who truly understands what I've been through..who will stay..but I'm too scared..I can't, I can't go through that potential pain again.. Edit: hah, looks like this turned into a long version instead of short, sorry..I doubt you'll even read this, probably wasted more of my life hoping someone will be there for me ;-; Welp, back to playing epic seven I guess

It's dedicated to their deceased vocalist Kyle, who died of an accidental overdose back in 2018. But your definition works too.

SAME

And now that it's been released, what do you think?

@@blorbo5800 I wasn't huge on the rest of the songs. Holding The Embers was really good but the rest didn't hold up to the singles as much as I'd hope they did. I like the album but it's definitely not going to be my album of the year, in my opinion

Amen. Keep listening. I love these guys. I like almonds. 👍🏽

I remember entering warped tour and WCAR was selling and signing “tracing back roots” just inside the gate
