    Starset has gotten me through a lot. My favorite band is Linkin Park but ever since Chester passed there was a big void left in music for me and Starset was one of the few bands that kinda helped fill that void. They are no where near the scope of LP obviously but I just find their music comforting and relatable in a lot of the same ways. Honestly every album is amazing from them and I highly suggest listening to more from them. A lot of their stuff is linked together and has a story to it. Especially the latest two albums

    I heard this song when it came out in 2013. It just spoke right through me and, since then, I became a fan of Starset. I can relate myself with these lyrics a lot. Every now and then I do the same as you: I write the thoughts that are twirling inside of my mind, somewhat like an exorcism. I wrote a bunch of things in the past years, trying to put all of "my demons" out of me. Music and words have been my companion in this struggle while I'm still surviving. And Starset is a big part of it as well. Please do more Starset reactions. You will not regret it.

    I was watching this holding my 5 month old daughter and I burst into tears because I know those feelings and my little girl is what makes me feel better on those days. Love your channel and love what you do brother. Keep it up. Keep your head up. Hang in there.

    Starset's individual songs are bangers for sure but it hits different when you listen through their albums in order and realize they all have ties to other songs and somewhat tell a story. When I first listened to Transmissions I was blown away by the tie ins from each song to the next. I have some favorites but for emotionally impacting songs and to show their range "Diving Bell" and "Everglow" are nice changes to their typical space rock vibes. Awesome band that deserves way more attention.

    Always a good day with Starset. 🤘🙏
    Thanks for sharing your writing, it's a great outlet. We all have those days we feel defeated and it can be hard to snap out of it. But it makes the good days, or even just the days you can take a breath and know life is okay, feel even better. Keep pushing man. Love the reactions as always. 🤘

    That journal entry perfectly describes how I've been feeling lately, and honeslty my demon is my constant struggle with overthinking every single little thing and I often find myself sinking into that void to the point where I become a recluse and push everyone away like Pattinson's interpretation of The Batman is kinda the best visual representation I can give. And it sucks because I know I got bitter and rageful but not only that I just feel so alone right now and honestly it's like I am breaking down both mentally and physically. But it get's harder when my depression sets in and it's kinda hard to put a smile on my face when my mind is going through a 100 different things all at once and there is only one person who has that power to cheer me up and that's my best friend whether we're talking to one another or playing video games with each other but things have gotten so complicated with us because we were caught in this place between love and fear due to the distance between us with her being in Germany and myself being here in SoCal and it took us a year to talk to each other then she told me she moved on but I can't because as corny as this sounds she is first and foremost my best friend but she is also the love of my life, my other half, and my partner in crime. She knows me better than I know myself. She knows what I like, what I love, what I hate. She support my passions and tolerate my faults. She was always there for me. And it’s not always about what we say, or what we do because alone she is enough. With her cute and wholesome smile, laugh, and our friendship damn even our relationship it’s more than I deserve. We’ve laughed, we’ve cried, and I know we will come out of this bump in the road stronger than ever but now we are taking a 3 to 4 month break to figure things out again which hey is fine but I keep wishing things were different but not only that I just wish that I can pull myself out of this dark void I'm in but it's songs like this and the long defeat by Thrice that keep me going and keep me fighting every single day despite all the shit that life throws at me

    Much love Brother. Love your channel, your reactions, your outlook. We all have darkness, it’s how we get on top of it.
    That being said. Starset is so incredible. Brings up a lot of emotions…helps me get through dark days.

    Great band. Seen them in Abilene Texas and they were awesome live. Stay strong Alex. I feel the same way you do. Every since my wife passed away February 22 2021. Things just don’t seem the same. I’m finding it real easy to just stay away from everything and everyone. Plus I live on disability and can’t work. So I spend a lot of time home alone. It’s really easy to fall into that dark hole. Thank you being you brother. Stay safe

    After seeing the first part of the video, I want to tell that your channel (and you & everybody else here) mean alot for me. Music is really big and important thig to me, but i havent yet met anyone irl who cares about it as much as I do.
    And seeing all you here talk about artists and bands you care about is in a way very meaningful and releaving experience for me, not even so sure why, I just really like this community, so so much.

    So awesome to see you discover Starset, Alex! I've been listening to their music ever since their first album debuted and every album since then has been a unique, cinematic experience to listen and grow to. I hope you check out more of their music, not only are their lyrics poetic and thought-provoking but there's so many layers and nuance to their overall sound and composition as well, they are definitely one of the most distinctive bands out there, and so underrated.
    Some of my personal favorite Starset tracks to recommend are:
    Ricochet, Starlight, Gravity of You, Everglow, Halo, Carnivore, Telescope, Antigravity, Trials, Perfect Machine, The Breach, Otherworldly, Icarus, Earthrise, Leaving This World Behind.
    Also, I appreciated listening to your journal piece. Writing can be such a cathartic tool in helping to work through things or self-reflect. I was intrigued that you wrote about "a new horizon"...Starset's latest album is titled HORIZONS :)
    All the best to you 💙
