Dan, having listened to you since you entered Tesseract to the sadness I personally felt when you left the band... I’ve came to realize how important of a vocalist you are not even for me, but to everyone who has had the pleasure of hearing you. There have been so many emotions your voice has sent me through since I’ve first heard you, and I really want you to understand that. You are truly unique and amazing. Never stop
Till this date I cannot listen to Altered State because Dan is not the vocalist. Is a good album but I was so against it because I was sad Dan left Tesseract.
@@sandygrungerson1177 certainly trained, that's for sure. I dated a music theater major once and she couldn't sing for shit haha. I guess it doesn't work on everyone, but it certainly worked on Dan.
What I thoroughly enjoy about these live performances on Twitch, Facebook, CZcams, etc. is that Dan brings new flavour to the songs as he develops. It's astonishing to hear the same song performed in two separate live performances, sometimes only days\weeks apart, and be offered a brand new experience. It certainly compels me to watch his talent grow. His fearless determination to put himself out there and attempt new approaches is what truly separates Dan from the rest of the pack as a vocalist. Thank you for sharing the results of your hard work to the world Dan. It's a privilege to listen.
I can’t believe people have not heard Beneath My Skin / Mirror Image... easily one of the best songs on the album. The transition between the 2 give you the feeling you are in another universe. Almost feel my soul lift out of my body, crazy feeling! Keep up the good work Dan!
Daniel Tompkins deserves so much more recognition as the phenomenal vocalist he is. So much control & ease that you can pick up on just by hearing his voice.
My friends and I went from London to Stockholm to see TesseracT play a few years ago and we bumped into the band in a dingy bar the night before the gig. They were all absolute gents, but I remember right at the end of the night some drunk lady fell out of a stationary taxi while we were all saying our goodbyes. Daniel rushed over to help her back on her feet before the rest of us had even seen what happened. A top bloke to match his top talent! I also remember listening to Pheonix on the day of the gig and we all thought 'there's no way he's hitting the high notes in this'. Needless to say, we were wrong. He nailed it. Props to you Daniel, yours is a talent very few can match.
This is the most spectacular music ive ever heard... Ur emotions come thru to the point were ive cried.. i cant put into words how ur music has effected me in a most positive way. Daniel u r beyond sensational as well as Tesseract.. ive floored by ur music and shear talent.
I'm not a singer but I can just tell how much work Daniel Tompkins has put into his voice. It's the result of true passion and real work ethic. Beautiful.
I had a vocal lesson with Dan back in 2015 and will attest he is super clear, informative and an all around humble balanced guy. I highly recommend it. Freakishly amazing teacher and singer!!!
Absolutely phenomenal, Dan. Thank you so much for doing this and your other live streams. They have truly kept me sane during this bizarre pandemic. Your dynamic range and the effort you put into your craft are inspirational and so evident when seeing this performance. Amazing !!!!
This was AMAZING !!!!! lots of love here. Thank you for singing some of my favourites : Hexes and Beneath my skin /Mirror Image. Greetings from Morocco
Dan! I love your singing, man I am really hoping to see you live in Chile when this craziness ends. I would love to hear you sing some tunes out of Altered State, once I heard a live version of Resist sung by you I was so happy. Lots of love! Thanks for singing, thanks for your music, Seven Names is one of my favourites out of Polaris and it gave me the chills on this live T-T
i have recently discovered tesseract and have just fallen in love!! after hearing this live performance all i want to do is work on my vocals and be as good as you!!
I hope ... that one day... I'll be somewhere ... between not too bad... and You. Keep going Dan, you and TesseracT are still way too underrated, I wish you a bright future.
Daniel, me has volado la cabeza con semejante presentación, sonó mejor que en estudio, definitivamente eres mi vocalista actual favorito, un abrazo desde Bolivia
Tourniquet..Ive heard this umpteen times and its still unbelievably sensational. I cant even put into words the way his voice physically makes me feel!!!! July 2024
Dan, you are an amazing singer , one that grew as such through the years :) It is really nice seeing this days there is still interesting and complex music beng created. Thank you for this amazing performance.
No words. You're songwriting talent and raw vocal emotions are matched by very few in the industry. I listen to all your work, regularly. Peace/Love/Light from Massachusetts, USA.
Amazing work! Incredible control, range and technique. You've quickly shot up to either my #1 or 2 favorite vocalists (fighting against Maynard James Keenan). Saw Tesseract perform in San Antonio Texas, can't wait to see y'all again. Keep up the awesome work!
Hey dan I'm new to Tesseract, only this year. Your one of the most exciting vocalists I've heard in a long time, wow the range you have and you have certainly perfected your singing. Seems really effortless. Your live performances are just unreal the whole band are such an amazing live band. Thanks to my son for telling me about all of you. I think I've said he is a guitarist and bass player, he was in a prog metal band at uni, He has co e back home for personal reasons and I'm pleased he has decided to do his solo work. He recorded enough material for an album for his masters. He has a ,ot of inspiration from many bands, but his passion has always been metal, now prog metal. He has done vocals throughout his uni course, he got a top degree.and completed his masters. But now he is solo he is studying vocalists and tou have made a big impact on him as has all you guys. Thanks for these posts I love hearing you do your vocals ❤ All the best take care all 0f you and keep making fantastic music together all our love Chris & Dan xxxx
Daniel, you are truly incredible. Seven Names hit it off for me. Absolutely outstanding! All the songs you performed in this video was just mind blowing. Much Love.
Daniel- I love and appreciate everything you do. You and your band bring me so much value and joy. Hands down my favourite band. Tourniquet is the song that reminds me of my mom that died of cancer when I was just a kid… it makes me cry with hope every time I hear it. “I honour you with everything”…. Damn dude… says it all. Thank you for this. ❤
Bonjour de France , il est 4 heures du matin ici , je viens de rentrer chez moi , je peux dire que ma journée se termine en beauté avec ce que je viens d'entendre ... Quelle beauté ! On atteint là le sommet de la musique ! Continuez d’être ce que vous êtes , votre musique est bien plus qu'une simple musique , c'est une véritable thérapie qui rend des millions de gens heureux !
Omfg, how did I just discover this band, beyond amazing....ur voice is just indescribable, brings tears to my eyes...absolutely sensational!!!! Plus ur from my home country. I swear to god England had the best singers.
Dan. You along with Ashe O'Hara have been the catalyst that allows to access my deepest emotions. For each and every piece produced by TesseracT that I've listened to, within my mind, a deep, cerebral tranquillity is invoked that causes an array of existential wonder. A melancholic euphoria consumes me with every note played. And every word sung by these two vocalists' echoes through my memories and triggers a peaceful nostalgia to flow through me. These songs connect me to the universe, to God, to myself, to lost memories, to solace. It is because of your music that I am able to feel this ataraxy. The serenity that ensues each song is unexplainable using language. It is amazing. Thank you for making the soundtrack to my subconscious.
I cant stop listening to this...its currently June 2024. Beyond an eargasm!!!
Can’t believe I slept on TesseracT for so long
7:23 - 11:36 -> SURVIVAL
11:37 - 18:10 -> TOURNIQUET
18:26 - 23:54 -> UTOPIA

well said man
That is such an amazing message that resonates with so many of us. ✊
Oh man what i can relate to you. I respect your comment alot my friend
Wholeheartedly agree!
Till this date I cannot listen to Altered State because Dan is not the vocalist. Is a good album but I was so against it because I was sad Dan left Tesseract.
I CAN DIE FOR THOSE VOCALS ON SEVEN NAMES. that's unreal.
literally chills all throughout the song
My favorite tune of theirs.:)
Right? fucking amazing! Some of the best vocals I've heard in my life! Really hitting!
holy smokes
He’s gotten very skilled. His control is so easy. Looks like he’s not trying. Love it!
sounds like a music theatre major
@@sandygrungerson1177 certainly trained, that's for sure. I dated a music theater major once and she couldn't sing for shit haha. I guess it doesn't work on everyone, but it certainly worked on Dan.
30:17 Jesus CHRIST. GOOSEBUMPS
Same here! That part has some intensity to it
That C5 GODDAMN
Absolutely mad. The vocal fry during seven names, fits so well
Beneath my skin/mirror image is my FAVOURITE song from tesseract and I'm sooooo glad I heard it in here ♥
Years ago I was introduced to tesseract... and I have never recovered from the beauty of it.....

Try listening to that song after downing 8grams of some strong mushrooms.
It’s absolutely mind blowing
Agree, favourite tesseract track
Hexes always sends shivers down my spine. Love that song its just so complete
Seven names!! So good
29:45 !!! Thats Talent not luck
Cheers From Chile Dan !!
Its SKILL
wena wena
I just discovered TesseracT last week and have been binging. What incredible music.
U r lucky. I'm sticking with them for 5 years.
I discovered them last summer and have not taken them off my constant playlist since. Dan is absolutely brilliant
Welcome to the fan club, you are forever stuck here with the rest of us.
@@OneMind108 streamed them when the first album just came out. Been a fan since then. The music has changed so much from then
Same here.....what a rabbit hole of amazingness.
Daniel Tompkins deserves so much more recognition as the phenomenal vocalist he is. So much control & ease that you can pick up on just by hearing his voice.
Amazing. So much control and it all looks effortless. Sign of great technique, experience and talent, hard work!
Wow, tourniquet is my favorite song and that was beautiful
My friends and I went from London to Stockholm to see TesseracT play a few years ago and we bumped into the band in a dingy bar the night before the gig. They were all absolute gents, but I remember right at the end of the night some drunk lady fell out of a stationary taxi while we were all saying our goodbyes.

This sounds like such a copypasta hahahaha
Goodness that Hexes performance was amazing.
Maaan, that Seven Names vocal. Been dying to hear that live and that was sick. Some of those highs are insane.
I did a vocal cover of seven names and added very much grit to those high notes, would love to know what you think of it! (its on my channel)
You are truly amazing daniel … such a soulful voice we all hope to hear more from you ❤
Hearing Seven Names is incredible. You did it once prior on stream and I joined right as it was ending, so this is redemption for me.
I...am blown away...I know nothing about Tessaract, so now I am going to learn...incredible performance!!
Dubs Fehr that’s very kind, how did you hear about this video?
@@DanielTompkins Came up on my suggested videos, and I was curious...glad I clicked! :)
Seriously one of the best bands ever. Definitely my top favorite at this time.
@@zombiechris4813 I can't stop listening. Such great melodies and so interesting...
@@dubsfehr9574 tesseract is one the greatest progressive metal band .... once u hear tesseract , u never recover
I used to be the biggest trivium fan still am but then i heard polaris, and wow ,
best vocals prog/djent in the last years..... keep rocking Dan!
This is the most spectacular music ive ever heard... Ur emotions come thru to the point were ive cried.. i cant put into words how ur music has effected me in a most positive way. Daniel u r beyond sensational as well as Tesseract.. ive floored by ur music and shear talent.
Hexes...r u fuckin kidding me, ur voice is a true gift to this world...im just totally blown away Daniel
29:54 - fry and yell
15:58 - sick yells
Tourniquet is a demanding tune vocally and Dan pulls it off beautifully!
I'm not a singer but I can just tell how much work Daniel Tompkins has put into his voice. It's the result of true passion and real work ethic. Beautiful.
This entire video is such a gift. Thank you. Nailed all my favorite songs
I had a vocal lesson with Dan back in 2015 and will attest he is super clear, informative and an all around humble balanced guy. I highly recommend it. Freakishly amazing teacher and singer!!!
can i ask you how did you manage to have it? :-)
@@gabryvk When Tesseract came thru on the 2015 US Tour in Winston Salem NC. I have no doubt he would do just as well with a virtual lesson as well.
@@gmyersgilmer9470Damn I live in concord area
@@stoned_ Gonna see them in ATL at the end of this week! Charlotte was too awesome a few weeks ago so I could not help it!
@@stoned_ I live in Asheville but a good friend of mine lives in Winston
