The Thread Where You Talk About Music You Like

Greetings Vektonauts. With sadness we must inform you that we, Blake, Frank, and Erik, are all departing from Vektor effective immediately. It has been a completely incredible 10-ish years that has brought us all around the world and introduced us to so many super generous, passionate, friendly people and produced three albums of which we are extremely proud. Seeing the reception for Terminal Redux in particular after all of the hard work put into it has been very humbling. Sadly we've reached a point where we can't continue with the working arrangement we have, for a number of reasons that we find unnecessary to discuss publicly. There's no big story or drama, people and personalities simply change and drift apart and we've reached our limit.

The three of us are lifer musicians and will continue to be. You'll be seeing us in other contexts, other bands, recordings, tours, and more. Our time in Vektor has been a major part of our lives and parting with that will be a serious adjustment, but ultimately we're excited to see other new ways we can put our ideas to use. We are -hugely- grateful to everyone that came out to shows, picked up merch, listened to the music, showed us a great time and kept us going. We accomplished more than we ever thought was possible when we joined and we hope you'll stay tuned for what we do next – you have certainly not seen the last of us.

We don't know if this means Dave will seek new members and continue Vektor or not, that is for him to decide and announce in his own time.

Given that it's the holidays and the future of the band is out of our hands, we'd appreciate some space for the time being as we enjoy time with friends and family (please don't message our personal pages about it, we won't reply). All the best and we'll see you down the road.

-Blake, Frank, and Erik
 
Sucks for the fans. I thought the last Vektor album was pretty boring though, went in one ear and out the other. I tried several times and nothing stuck with me. I liked the previous one though. Tighter, punchier, and catchier. Still a bit overwrought though.
 
Hi. Been a while since I've been here.
Today is 01.13.17, and I still have no goddamn passport so I'm missing the release show for Forever.

Anyway, I didn't want to make a thread for this, so I'm just posting it here. Code Orange releases a new album today (finally). I know it's hardcore and not "metal", but it hauls ass either way. If you haven't heard the title track, then go check that out. I can't get the YouTube URL because internet is cunting.

01.13.17

Hi everyone!
 
I mean, I'm not crazy about them. They sound about as decent as Sepultura would be right now if Max had never left, but they can't fuck with Chaos AD or anything before. They're just good for a band of people who've been around that long. I'd probably take newer Soulfly to be honest.
