SYBREED Bioactive Composer Reaction and Production Analysis

LOL MY BAD - Dunno what happend to the audio at 8:55 I was talking on HOW BADASS that breakdown was - UGGGGGGG!!!

Most underrated metal band of all time!!

This band is an absolute hidden gem, I'm stoked you reacted to them!

This band is a gem in metal world. I'm so proud you listened them.

Sybreed is the best thing that could have ever happened to metal ❤.
Thank you for giving them a shot!

Holy shit this is not a track I'd ever expect to see here! Unfortunately they broke up quite a while ago but I remember seeing them in 2010 and what a show!

I'm a BIG BIG fan of Sybreed.
I really miss their work.
For me, the best Industrial Metal band ever.
Thank you for the analysis and reaction, great as always.

Slave design is honestly one of the best albums I have ever heard. Synthetic Breed and Take the red pill are insane tracks.

SYBREED IS THE GREATEST FUCKING BAND EVER, THEIR THIRD ALBUM ANTARES IS A MASTERPIECE PLEASE CONSIDER COVERING A SONG FROM IT IN THE FUTURE

Rusted, No Wisdom Brings Solace, Take the Red Pill, Ego Bypass Generatir, Doomsday Party, Posthuman Manifesto, Next Day Will Never Come, Revive My Wounds, Into the blackest light.... I could list bangers by Sybreed for a while. Uf you feel like checking anymore, i recommend one of these

Almost 20 years ago and this still hits hard! 🤘

This is basically Cyber Metal. A subgenre of Fear Factory-esque industrial that is more synth heavy and has djenty elements added on to boot. Any fans of Sybreed should check out Mechina and Conflict as well. Also check out Subliminal Fear's last album, total Sybreed worship and all-around amazing album.

My favourite band of all time. Thank you for covering them.

No shot you're actually reacting to Sybreed!! I fucking love these guys. So sad they're not active anymore. I wouldn't have picked this one for a reaction but it's a good one none the less

We've got Sybreed on the channel, hell yes Geebz! They are one of my favourite bands, they've got such an amazing and unique sound. Let me recommend some of my favourite songs by them:
Ethernity
Twelve Megatons Gravity
Isolate
Permafrost
A Radiant Daybreak
Next Day Will Never Come
Reevolution
Machine Gun Messiah (arguably their heaviest song)

Great one! Possibly my favorite recording for this style of music. What makes it so good is the fact that it's NOT over-produced like we see by so many other artists in this genre. Bioactive is truly special that way. Beautifully written, performed, and recorded.

YOOOO SYBREED
I THOUGHT THAT THEY HAD BEEN FORGOTTEN 😭♥️😭♥️
LOVE THIS BAND SO MUCH
If you like this, you absolutely must check their track "Plasmaterial." Hands down my most favorite song by them

Yes!!! Sybreed is my favorite band!! Check out more! Their entire discography is a masterpiece

Sybreed is my favorite band of all time!

Kinda djenty, yeah. I think these guys kinda predated the term "djent" (or at least the popularisation of it describing a whole style or genre) but I definitely always felt there was a Meshuggah influence to the riffing.

I love this band so much and "Cyber Metal" is the most appropriate "label" that i use to give them. Fear Factory was the band that created this style, btw.

Sybreed are underappreciated innovators. All four of their albums are special, and their growth over them was subtle but impressive.

Sybreed is still my favorite band! :) Glad to see some acknowledgment of them! 🖤

Sybreed will never get their due. 4 albums and then they were gone, just like that. Kinda an industrial djent sound. Really unique, great band.

Maaan, what a surprise! Love these guys, I'm a sucker for more Sybreed on Your channel. Definitely recommend ReEvolution, Orbital, Doomsday Party, The Line of Least Resistance. Each from every album, enjoy!

I like this band. Don't know why they have always been kind of under the radar and underrated. This song in particular is driving energy and pumps me up. Would be a great gym tune.

So happy to see this! I came across this track and album last year (the cover looked like my cup of tea so I clicked it) and it felt like coming home. It still gives me chicken skin after a year of listening to it at least once a week and I'm just mad that I didn't find Sybreed in 2004 cos I was dying for something like this then. As always, you got the vibe and picked out the best elements! Great job!

Yes! Not a lot of people know about Sybreed, one of my favorite bands in highschool thank you for checking them out! Sad they aren’t a band anymore. But the singer Ben and guitarist Drop still make music together! 🤘🏻

Scar Symmetry - Holographic Universe
Melodic Death Metal from Sweden, a behemoth of a song with a sci-fi theme

Cool track from a ditto band in the veins of MNEMIC, SCARVE and FEAR FACTORY!
Always dig your dissections maestro! 🤘

These guys were a force to be reckoned with in the metal scene. played a gig with them 12 years ago and they were so loud that they blew up one of the PA speakers. AEON is one of my favourite pieces by them

I was so happy to see You`ve done a Analysis of this track of this band particulary. I must say that Sybreed and Mnemic - both being European Industrial/Djent in the beginning 2004-2010 era have their magic. I love the amount of (almost space) ambiences that they`ve put in this track.

The best way to describe their music specially this song will be that - "it doesn't feel like this song is 18 years old, it sounds way more modern".......

So great to see another old dude like me, loving on a band like Sybreed. We are so lucky to have four albums by this so diversity ov music. This album is the greatest album to cycle a road bike with. I hit the trail. Throw on the headphones and fly!

Thanks for helping me discover new music and emphasizing music I already love! Cheers!

No. F'ing. Way. Bungle, Beyond Creation, now Sybreed? My man Geebz. I know you're not getting a ton of requests for some of these amazing bands you review. I appreciate your willingness to take chances on stuff, and help the artists get some much deserved recognition.

spot on w djent, i read a comment on another video that says, "Sybreed Djents hard, with heart" and its so true

I just recently discovered Sybreed and have been chugging through their albums one by one. I gotta say - I'm impressed. All their albums have been a great experience for me. I also did listen to their first album last. The first time I heard Bioactive my mind was blown. Also, being a long term DnB fan, I'm a sucker for their DnB-crossover plays.

That last part of this song give me all kinds of emotions!❤

This album ‘Slave Design’ has being remastered and will be re-released in October 2024 for 20th Anniversary 🤘🤘🤘

Sybreed - Novembers doom - Illdisposed - The Monolith Deathcult / the real big four of metal
S+ teir metal. timeless. Sybreed is music alien species and future civilizations could appreciate.
A psychedelic transcendent experience in musical format.

Since you're listening to Sybreed, I can suggest "Destruction and Bliss". The track is a masterpiece from an arrangement perspective.

WOW! You did Sybreed. I love these guys. I believe they are classified as industrial death metal. You should check out Emma-O off Antares too

Imagine my shock when I see you did a reaction to the song that got me into music!!

Love these guys. Drop, the guitarist is involved in a lot of various projects and comes up with some insane riffs and does a lot of the mixing and synth stuff. Wish I could have seen them live.

was so surprised to see them here, they are one of my favorite bands, cheers good man

Can't believe you just did a Sybreed track, Antares the next album is amazing (Dirk Verbeuren on the drums).
You should do a Mnemic track soon, great band, Guillaume Bideau who was the singer on the last 3 albums, passed away a few weeks ago, it's still gutting me, he was a great guy and a great singer (Mnemic, One way mirror, Scarve)

Sybreed would go on to experiment more with their sound in later albums. Things get outright _weird_ when it comes to Antares at times (the album following Slave Design)

These guys have been my favorite band hands down for the last 16 years, I still jam them every day. I'm thrilled you got around to them finally.
If you want a recommendation for the next album in there line up "Antares" I would suggest the song "Isolate" as the best step from here. (In my opinion anyway)

I’m glad you did this song, I love it! I found a new artist to listen to today because of you geebz, thanks :D

I found out about these guys in like 2005. Was lucky enough to see them when they came to Denver in 2009. One of my favorite bands for sure! Very cool that you dug them Geebz! Cheers man

Did not expect this at all, Sybreed feels like kind of an obscure band. But they have a very interesting sound, no album of their sounds the same. The industrial almost djenty sound can be felt throughout their discography though.

Epic! Such an awesome band! And a sad day when they called it a day! They were on the verge of cracking it! If one band needs to get back together it’s SYBREED!

Oh man you listening underrated band these days? I still remember watching them live at euroblast. I'm lucky to see them live!

Beeen Seeing you for a while but i didnt know you covered SB. First time here... Loved it!

Not to mention they we're around 17y old when this record came out!!

The singer of the band has a new project called Shadow domain which is also excellent.

they just released the remastered version of this and the re-recorded version. All of them are great!

I really hope they make another album some day. Ive been a fan since the first album came out.

Sybreed! So glad you did these guys!

if you like it you should listen more of Sybreed. They have a lot of such hits.

My favorite band of all time

Loved to see your reaction on this track! I enjoyed see you enjoying it. I love the entire album.
Pretty sure, I suggested this or a different track of this album in the comments once or twice. So, thanks to the patreon as well who pushed this up in your list.

Great song...oh btw, your audio cut out @8:55

Great analysis. Just discovered this band, and cannot stop listening! So good.

Such an underrated band, thanks for the video!

awesome band... they left us too soon, hope they one day come back

Sup sup, alpha. I'm behind on my Geebz videos so I'm gonna slow burn and catch up 🤙🤘

Djent before djent was a thing. But it's definitely djent

OMG YOU CHOSE IT!!!!!

Sybreed was basically cyberpunk metal. They definitely have djent elements, but this was really when djent was in its infancy. Party of what makes metal so great is its not vocal forward music, vocals are just another instrument. I think metal and genres like house or early styles of edm have a lot in common.

Another band for my to-hear-list. Thanks to whoever suggested it! Still here! Awwright!

Oh, you have to check out Celldweller - Last Firstborn. I think you'd appreciate it for sure.

I love Sybreed, too bad the band dismantled a while ago. Anyway, I'm glad to see them on here. I'd recommend you a song called Lazarus by Hacride, they are in the same vein. Also, we need Archetype by Fear Factory on this channel!

Very surprised to see this underrated band here! Gonna echo some of the other commenters and also recommend Fear Factory, Self Bias Resistor is my favorite of their songs!

Late to the party...thanks for doing this video about them!!
LOL were you able to catch the snarling and growling in the background? Love it!!

Sybreed is an amazing band!!!

aw man this is awesome to see these guys are so under appreciated.

I love the ending of bioactive.

I’m lucky enough to have seen them live in Australia - (name a famous metal band and I’ve seen them- FF, SYL, Metallica, Meshuggah, etc) Sybreed were as good as all of them!!!

Sybreed is fucking flames man

Check out the rerecorded version of Bioactive that just came out! SO GOOD!

there is a band from a currently controversial country that is very similar to sybreed, the russian cyber metal band illidiance. illidiance started as a black metal band but it evolved into more melodic death metal compositions which then continued to evolve into the much more synth heavy cyber metal with their latest releases. personal favourite illidance song is boiling point

While my guitar gently weeps tribute by Petty, Winwood, Prince +++

Haven't heard this band name in quite a while, let's go!

Awesome! Really underrated band

Spoon Lady.... Is mind-blowing, check her out...
On another note..song I discovered as a child listening to my Father's LPs... Patches Classic 70s Soul

I'm sure what you said from 8:55 onwards was very insightful. However, I am not a particularly skilled lip reader.

Sybreed!! The perfect soundtrack to a dystopian future. Check out Ego Bypass Generator or Isolate sometime, or if you want some more bass then checkout Hightech Versus Lowlife or Orbital

heh, i happened to be listening to them when i logged in and saw this was posted.
this would be considered cyber metal, a sub-genre of industrial. industrial generally shys away from solos, btw, so thats partly why there wasnt one.
if you like this, then i think youll also really like mechina, who i think ive mentioned a few times. whereas sybreed are sorta fear factory meets meshuggah as someone mentioned, mechina are more fear factory meets nightwish, but with even more djenty guitars. also a LOT going on in their music. i strongly recommend checking out either starscape or impact proxy.
another awesome cyber metal band that youll probably also like is black light discipline. check out the song on fire.

Is it just me, or is the second stop for his comments muted? At around 8:56

Such a banger! Stable on the hypelist for running :>

Have you done anything from Ministry yet? Doesnt sound like this, but reminded me of them for some reason (try 'Psalm 69' album).

OMG how did i missed this one. One of my favs Industrial Metal bands. If you want check The Interbeing from Denmark

one of my all time favorite bands - highly recommend MNEMIC!

Geebz, love your videos/channel. I know you’ve done some TesseracT already but, could you please do “King”? I think you’d really love it! 🤘🏼

Sybreed is my favourite band. The only downside of them is that they added so much "sound" to their songs that you can't really appreciate it without some good quality headphones/speaker. If you listen to it with the wrong device it's so messy and sounds like noise, while in reality there are so many notes and different instruments/synths you can get lost in it!

If you want to listen to a banger doomsday party is something you definitely need to look at

Sybreed? My #1 favorite band from around 2010. I would like to see Doomsday or something from older album: "Decoy, "Next Day Will Never Come". This band has alot of sad, traumatic, melancholic sound with alot of staccatos, palm muted chugs, but they also add alot of synth with lower tuning than usual (Drop A# was considered low for me back then)
About genre, its sound a bit like Djent but it was called groove/industrial metal with some "cyber" stuff depends of the song. Tbh when i firts heard Nothlane around 2019(yea..) the first think i said to myself was "Sounds a bit like Sybreed, but lower and groovier".
Producer was also guitarist, so you know why guitar is so high in the mix ;)

Please do Emma-0 or Ego Bypass Generator by them next!!! Thanks for this Geebz!
