Mainstream recognition is absolutely vital to our genre’s survival. Without it, investments aren’t made which is exactly how we got in the rut of everything sounding alike.

So true! Metallica was huge for pushing Metal back into the mainstream, and launched a wave of new bands etc. Pop and Hip-Hop have nothing new to offer anymore. The best days for both of those genres are stuck in the 80’s, 90’s and 2000’s. Metal needs to be looked at a lot closer once again!

I couldn't agree more. Having a band re-define what people call "radio rock" is what we need. Seeing bands like Spiritbox being played on Octane gives me hope that more bands of the scene get that mainstream recognition and I can turn on Octane without hearing 5FDP every day.

The sequencing is what impressed me the most, about this album - it really tied the album together and allowed the amazing production to shine, as amazing as it did. The flow was flawless. It didn’t have the clunkiness, majority of albums have, when switching from one track to the next. I, fully, believe Eternal Blue set such a fantastic example, for exemplary album production, truly.

After my second time coming across the video I was like holy shit this song is fucking sick and heavy, and then I went down the Spiritbox rabbit whole. They only had the first two ep's out which kinda bummed me out cause I wanted more Spiritbox. I think they're a huge inspiration in my musical journey, love learning their songs too. So glad they've blown up so much and are always making sick fucking music \m/ Keep doing what you're doing!!

I enjoyed this interview a lot. You’re a way cool down to earth couple & great musicians. You are as unique as the music. Listening to it and then hearing it live is quite an experience. This is one of the best interviews I’ve ever seen. These questions (and the answers too, wow) made Spiritbox even more interesting. I’m a single father of an awesome autistic son. I’m a school bus driver - that is rewarding but does get intense at times. This is one of those bands that inspires me to keep playing guitar and keep finding my own groove - not only in music but in life. I’ve always been a fan of artists who create art for the sake of what they’re communicating to the world. Music is one of the things that makes people feel the human experience. You really got down deep to the heart of what really matters simply by having an appreciation for Spiritbox.

The sequencing was what really caught my attention, the first time I heard this album - it’s absolutely immaculate. I’d say the top thing I listen for, when checking out and album/band for the first time, is their sequencing. Majority of the time, I’m pretty disappointed- which, is often why I don’t listen to albums all the way through. If an album’s, simply, gonna feel like a playlist of the same band, where it seems there isn’t much consideration to the flow - I might as well put it in the order I want; what difference does it make? One of the best metal album sequencing - and all around album; as well as my very first metal album, I ever purchased.. Killswitch Engage - As Daylight Dies.

I love new school metal but everyone is pushing Spiritbox like they're the greatest band in the scene when they really aren't lmao. Their riffs are wannabe djent lord material which is already LITTERED in metalcore post 2010. I find Courtney to be extremely overrated as well, but not bad by any means. Even the title of this video "How Spiritbox’s ‘Eternal Blue’ Is Changing the Future of Heavy Music" is an extreme over statement. How are they changing the future of "heavy music"? What about this album screams unique? The production is good but the album as a whole is full of things that have been done before, there's nothing in there that would "change the future of heavy music." Also you don't "have to understand modern metal" to make a critique about it. I understand it perfectly well and I'll still stand my statements. Jinjer is everything Spiritbox wishes they could be anyways lmao.
