  • Misery Signals, or Mis Sigs as their biggest fans call them, is a technical hardmetalcore band from Canada. When they aren't writing tight riffs and twisty drum parts, they're mining for gold. Sweet, shiny, gold.

    Lyrics:
    "Truth, like gold, is to be obtained not by its growth, but by washing away from it all that is not gold"
    [Leo Tolstoy]
    Wash it all away, this replica, wash it all away
    We reveal only truths that we have chosen
    And tell only secrets of the surface
    We offer up our skin, the measure of our worth
    As we wade into the shallows
    Wash it all away, this replica
    The rising tied will wash it all away
    Raise the border and the boundaries
    We separate lesser evils each in their own compartments
    The view from this lens by its design divides us
    Divides us, what of the truth
    Only movement in the reaches of gravity can mean anything
    Towers were built like castles from the sand, like statues of tyrants
    The tide is coming in to wash them away
    The towers were built like castles in the sand
    The rising tide will wash them away

      These are great bands, and it's kinda funny you commented on the least viewed video on the channel. But I appreciate it man!

      @@MetalSharpensMetal Honestly this album by misery signals is a very underrated one, so it might explain why it didn't get a lot of views. I was surprised to see it. And no problem! :)

    hey man would love it if you did a video on polyphia or unprocessed!

      Noted! I'm not super hyped on Polyphia, but Unprocessed is great. Been following them since Covenant, which is still my overall favorite of theirs. But their recent release has more personal and straightforward lyrics it seems, so I was planning on reviewing Hell or another one from that.

      @@iimatrixxgamingii9609 that sounds like a cool idea! I wouldn't personally cover a super blasphemous song, but playing music from a non Christian with the bible over it would be great. I'm glad you're wanting to honor God with your skills.
