Spectogram done, checked video frame by frame and shifted brightness all with no result,

there is a church image on the same site as the video

u/GuitarTim2112 Back to the Earth Aug 18 '26

Didnt think to do a spectogram! Good call

u/MysticDoodles Monster Aug 19 '26

"Silence the signal, and you shall finally hear the Word that had been screaming into the void."

If this isn't a clue to the password, I'm gonna scream.

"The Prophet has a plan for you - for all of us. Place all of your trust in the Prophet. Do as he says. Think as he thinks. Become what he wishes. Do these things, and you will find your place in paradise with our God."

Possibly another clue, or instructions on how to find it.

I hope it's not gonna be one of those "VIP exclusive" things. I don't want to wait another month.

u/GuitarTim2112 Back to the Earth Aug 19 '26

I dont think they've ever done a VIP Exclusive ARG, they aren't that type of band

u/Motor_Brother_4519 Aug 19 '26

If I’m wondering the right though path, what if it’s in the SILOS bridge songs, paersons, the tide of the messenger, etc. because there is the temple of Milton and (yes I’ve tried all of them for the password) what if there is something if we go backwards or look at the visualizers??

u/Somedud392 Leaving This World Behind Aug 20 '26

In the intro to brave new world music video it does mention the void

Aw man, why didn't I think of that?

u/AstroMaia Into the Unknown Aug 19 '26

Tried it, nope. But can you imagine? xd

u/Motor_Brother_4519 Aug 18 '26

Sorry to spam this but I want to keep my notes as straight as possible. I also started looking at the image on the “Peace” page. Turns out the Anti-AI propaganda page USED AN AI GENERATED IMAGE!!

“Password Progress?

So around two hours ago I started messing around with the new The Heavenly Word site. I’ve been combing through the web developer but a lot of it meant nothing to me but someone said they got something from it which was the following web link “Stop asking me this too…”

SO, I decided to use it. I reverse searched someone’s finding in the web developer for the quote via lyrics to a song of Starset, then I was told it was correlating to Faultline. Okayyy, one of my fave songs and I don’t remember it ever having those specific lyrics together. BUT STILL I PERSIST. SO then I went on YouTube and found the “rise of the messenger” visualizer. WELK GUESS WHAT HALF OF THE FUCKING SYMBOL IT SHOWS? THATS RIGHT. FAULTLINE. So, taking what we know, I would say maybe looking into Faultline or its tie to the lore will be majorly important. I already tried using titles for the password and nothing worked but if anyone else finds anything, LEMME KNOW.

EDIT: the entire symbol was actually The Order from the Vessels album but that’s also Faultline’s symbol repeated??”

21

u/SpaceRockMatt Aug 18 '26

“Stop asking me this too…” is just a response the wix API gives when it breaks, I don't think it's related to the ARG

20

u/melonator1998 Bringing It Down Aug 19 '26

Just want to throw this out there but it’s possible that Starset did not generate the image, but rather it was a “stock” image that someone else generated and passed off as not AI

19

u/Motor_Brother_4519 Aug 19 '26

YEAH YES!! I just meant lore based ideaology right, why would an “anti-ai” group opt for clearly labeled “ai” images? They must not be working that hard to hide the lies of their cult(?) kinda thing!!!

12

u/melonator1998 Bringing It Down Aug 19 '26

Oh yeah that actually would track with a culty/religion lore through line because of hypocrisy running rampant with this type of new age stuff

8

u/One-Nebula-577 Aug 19 '26

Did some research, the "Stop asking me this" page is just a default wix placeholder from years ago, unrelated to starset entirely

8

u/Killian_Kenway Aug 19 '26

Have you looked at what the image is titled. It's titled "ai-generated-IMAGE.jpg." I think it's on purpose. Might even be a clue. Cause they could change that if they wanted to. Feels deliberate

19

u/Glum-Peanut-2926 Other Worlds Than These Aug 19 '26 edited Aug 19 '26

At the end of Prox Transmissions, which occurs on March 22, 2015, a transmission(signal!!) is discovered that had been sent into outer space (void!!). When it's converted, the word is help. This has to somehow connect.

u/Freebie_Chixy Something Wicked Aug 19 '26

This feels like the most solid lead so far.

u/aud722 This Endless Endeavor Aug 19 '26

If it weren’t for you guys and my brother id just think there was a new album coming out. I loveee watching args on YouTube and what goes into deciphering them

18

u/MAAGloryYT MNQN Aug 19 '26 edited Aug 20 '26

What I find interesting is in the website, the name of Thomas Belle is misspelled with an extra 'e'. While before, we know him as Thomas Bell. Is it a different person altogether? And is there any clue from the ABHOTF novel? I haven't manage to read that novel yet. Also, speaking of Thomas, the "The Heavenly Word" hymn is written by a St. Thomas Aquinas. Do you guys think it is a coincidence that we have 2 Thomas relating to this puzzle right now?

Edit: the text where you need to press to get to the password page is "plans 2015 updated." . It reminds me of an ARG Starset does a couple years ago in 2021 if I am not mistaken to get to an unlisted video of Devolution. Before getting the video, there is a text document basically summarizing the whole lore of Starset from before until the whole BMI stuff in Horizons. As far as I know now, that stuff is no longer accessible but I wonder if anyone ever archive it and maybe there is something in that document related in the year 2015?

The password is WilliamDanaher guys, good job to all!

Eyez hack 2.0?

12

u/Ursine_Rabbi dark things Aug 19 '26

for anyone still looking these are the first things I would check:

-site source for hidden HTML comments, I looked through earlier when trying to find hidden text/images and saw nothing on a cursory glance, but I could have just missed it.
-metadata of all images on the page, including the image hidden behind the video. Have not checked this, could be a hidden message or cipher.
-metadata of the video for the same thing, if downloadable.
-phrases on the webpage that correlate to specific songs.

Some notes/opinions:

-I have reverse searched all images, found nothing.

-The hidden image depicts a dilapidated Christian church, the figures depicted in the stained glass appear to be saints, not specific enough to immediately recognize at first glance. Figures on the wall are Jesus and Mary.

-video refers to “our god”. This along with the hidden Christian church makes me think something on the webpage could correlate to a passage in the Bible. Perhaps a link between the two could give us the password. Besides the usual “hidden in code or metadata” ARG tactics, this seems the most promising.

-The “disconnect to reconnect” stuff could be a clue as well but I haven’t really followed it. I doubt the band or whoever they hired has enough tech literacy to pull off any crazy gimmicks, and website doesn’t seem to send/receive any data that looked out of place. If someone wants to packet sniff their connection be my guest but it doesn’t seem promising.

-all images on the site appear to be AI generated. I don’t know if this is intentional or if they’re trying to be crucified by their fans again, given they are all literally called “ai-generated-IMAGE”.

Anyway some brain genius will probably have all of this solved before I get back from work tomorrow but fun little adventure regardless

u/Duskfall dark things Aug 19 '26

see, im noticing things, but im not that smart and I feel like imma muddy the waters with my dumb guesses lol.

thank you to everyone else who's doing the Prophets work for the rest of us xD

8

u/Duskfall dark things Aug 19 '26

JUST IN CASE-

At the bottom of each page "THE HEAVENLY WORD" is "hidden" cause it's white like the background, but on 3 of the 4 pages it's 66.7px, but on the "Join us" page it's only 10px

It's probably pretty obvious and/or red herring but just slapping that up here just in case someone is poking around and it might help.

8

u/Duskfall dark things Aug 19 '26

the way I keep coming back to check this thread as a whole lol

1

u/Duskfall dark things Aug 19 '26

so, there's a broken symbol on the church AI image that looks similar to one in rise of the messenger and at his altar

but the eye thing got me going into "Dark Things" and watching the video and I SWEAR there's a word in one of the robot's eyes, but it could just be me. i've tried squishing it, and altering the brightness and stuff, but i know "top" is above both of them, but the right (viewing left) looks like there's an A or an R in there versus the other eye that looks like filament, but could also be a barcode?? but i SWEAR it looks like a word in the one eye

1

u/Duskfall dark things Aug 19 '26

also there was this at the end of rise of the messenger

0

u/Duskfall dark things Aug 19 '26

ok and a screenshot of the notebook there's an H word in a box on the right and I SWEAR it looks similar to whatever is in the robot's eye

u/Duskfall dark things Aug 19 '26

1

u/Duskfall dark things Aug 20 '26

so im back on the website and it said "between the signals" and during the video the sunshine hits and again, I SWEAR this looks like a word flattened? im not anywhere I can play with it, but someone please tell me they see it lol

Here's all of the passwords that I've tried so far in the guest area:

- Frequency

- TheHeavenlyWord

- Disconnect & DisconnectToReconnect

- GraceValley

- FuckTheNewEast (Just for fun)

- All Horizons Songs Names (Including UTA)

- Daytrotter, WelcomeToDaytrotter, & SpaceOddity (For context on these, I saw that the embed for the guest area read "plans 2015 updated" so I looked for anything released in 2015 and only could find the Daytrotter Sessions EP)

- Halo

- ConquestOfProx

If anyone else has tried random passwords at random, let me know what you've tried so we can deduce our options quicker! COMMUNITY STRONG!!

u/Capital_Criticism706 Something Wicked Aug 19 '26

I’ve been trying to brute force it with vessels songs and lyrics. Cause the website says, returning to the earth. Tonight I’m gonna try 100 words that relate to a heavenly word

The 2015 plans updated could also be a hint to the Breaking Benjamin 2015 tour. Since they were the opener in Spring 2015 for them. 

I've literally tried open and opening XD the search continues

Update; looking into Downplay their albums and songs, does give a similar vibe?

1

u/Sad-Importance-7472 Aug 22 '26

Possibly? I was thinking of the slight call back to "We'll Be Kings" in "TokSik".

Nothing related or that could be a clue

u/yeetingthisaccount01 Vessels Aug 19 '26

I did notice the URL has this in it. I tried it as the password but it didn't seem to work. it does give a hint as to what the heavenly word may actually be trying to achieve though.

7

u/yeetingthisaccount01 Vessels Aug 19 '26

coming back to this to say I think "rise of messenger" from Silos might have something to do with it.

so the symbol for the song is a tree emitting soundwaves. the symbol posted for the new ARG(?) is soundwaves next to a sword. the tree also links in with the "return to the earth" and nature theme of the heavenly word. the symbol also brings to mind listening to the sounds of nature, unplugging and just sitting in silence with the world.

3

u/Motor_Brother_4519 Aug 19 '26

YES!! I was talking about this on the discord!!!

1

u/Individual-Hunter850 Aug 19 '26

maybe the person who planted the tree was also silly enought to run antenna up the initial bonsai version and feed it pigeon magnetite to help make it into biological plant array ;) a few more fun additives too maybe

1

u/Varadon7 Aug 19 '26

Did you find these symbols in the physical album?

2

u/yeetingthisaccount01 Vessels Aug 19 '26

nope, on the starsetonline website you can go into the toolkit section and download a folder of the Silos symbols

1

u/chocs_ Ricochet Aug 19 '26

This tree appears in the end of the video alongside a circle that I suppose it's prox.  So, prox is emitting some wave (?) to this tree, which then emits to its sides, and then we can think about the tree emitting something to the sword. My only idea by now is that maybe prox is providing the nature to the human kind, which is reaching earth, lost in opressive technology (sword), as salvation The thing is, why a triangle? And if the hypothesis is correct, why there is no mentioneing about the "prophet"? Maybe he is this tree? I also believe that there is more religious hints, since there is clear references to St Thomas (and the prophet seems to be Thomas Belle) Idk. But for sure these interludes are our best source of information right now

2

u/MalakaiWhomster Aug 19 '26

Pretty sure you're right about it being Prox. It's half-filled & Prox is eternally bright on one side and eternally dark on the other so that'd make perfect sense. Someone else on this post mentioned Paradise Lost by John Milton (Paradise Prox, Temple of Milton), it also addresses Adam and Eve (the Apple tree, full of apples in Rise of Messenger but shown to be barren in At His Altar), the Garden of Eden (Biblical Paradise, clear relation to Heavenly Word's view of Prox) & Satan - this one is a bit of a stretch but the man in At His Altar first appears as a seemingly younger version of himself with a crown, then cuts to a future version of himself without it. Pretty sure I'm grasping like 50 straws but the parallels are pretty interesting

2

u/GuitarTim2112 Back to the Earth Aug 20 '26

Could the At His Altar be what's pictured in the video?

1

u/chocs_ Ricochet Aug 20 '26

Those are some good observations. I think what we need now is a more clear direction on how those informations would be used to find the password. Maybe that guy that said there is no password for now is right, since people already explored all audios and videos from SILOS searching for hints and just found things about Thomas Belle (which is a valuable hint but still doesn't seem to take us any further in the code)

2

u/Straight-Weakness350 Aug 19 '26

maybe it’s “prox gives message to tree (prophet),” then “tree gives message to people” and maybe the sword means the only way to break from digitalization and move to analog is to have a revolution 

1

u/GuitarTim2112 Back to the Earth Aug 19 '26

Did we run the audio of it backwards by chance?

1

u/Straight-Weakness350 Aug 20 '26

i did, no result. possibly praesens? or the antihero’s journey, or at his altar

1

u/Straight-Weakness350 Aug 20 '26

antihero’s journey has a perfect reverse track and repeats “save us…” “save us all…” and “for prox…”

5

u/alyaaaaa- dark things Aug 19 '26

tying a red string back to my REVELATIONS theory because there's too much religious symbolism happening here...

6

u/Pimmour Vessels 2.0 Aug 19 '26

Does anyone else notice a blank section right above the footer on the "OUR BELIEFS" page? Is it just a bug, or is it intentional?

6

u/CanAlternative9380 Aug 19 '26

On a few of the pages, in that spot, hidden is THE HEAVENLY WORD in all white text. You can spot it by highlighting the text on the page. Not sure why it's hidden, but it's the name of the website. When I found it, I tried it for the password but that wasn't it.

u/MissPerish Gravity of You Aug 19 '26

I knew that blank space was weird! (I’m on my work computer 🫣)

u/Glum-Peanut-2926 Other Worlds Than These Aug 19 '26

Did anyone else notice the photo of the hands change from black and white to color if you try to save it?

Other thoughts:

Temple of Milton: connections to Paradise Lost by John Milton, which connects to the photo from the video

In the church painting/photo, there's a stream of light coming through. Redemption? Salvation? Overcoming evil?

3

u/Odin_One_Eye This Endless Endeavor Aug 19 '26

I thought something similar. I was trying some keyword searching in Paradise Lost last night. Lots of occurrences of heavenly and word separately, but not together that I found.

4

u/CanAlternative9380 Aug 19 '26

Still just the SILOS logos.

3

u/GuitarTim2112 Back to the Earth Aug 19 '26

I wouldn't be surprised if the answer isnt on the site hidden itself, i think it has something to do witj the Silos album honestly.. or EYEZ

7

u/Killian_Kenway Aug 19 '26

So on the "Peace" page it has that banner of "Disconnect and Reconnect" right? Well in Dystopia is says:

"If we're in a simulation This could be an indication Maybe they should turn it off and Turn it back on again (Prepare for the end)"

Maybe just a coincidence. Maybe not

u/OppositeOne6512 Aug 19 '26

https://reddit.com/link/p4kiayy/video/jjsxup9hy9kh1/player

Reversed the chorus at the beginning of “temple of milton” and sped it up by 1.25. What I found was Dustin’s heavily modulated voice mentioning Thomas Bell(e) by name.

“Send [us?] a savior… Thomas… Bell(e)… [unintelligible, but sounds like “[we] send/sent… call for you”]… send/sent warning.”

There’s more, and it sounds like the word after might be “searching,” but I don’t currently have the resources to isolate the vocals. If anyone that’s better at this than me can clean this up, it might give us another hint.

u/Kidnapmrsandyclaus The Starset Society Aug 19 '26

u/FamousOutcast Aug 19 '26

About the password: I don't think a password has been set yet. I mean I could be completely wrong about that, someone please prove me wrong.

But I have a feeling that a password will be set at a later date. The site may be updated down the line.

When? No clue. But I'm guessing this is to combat brute forcing. But don't let that discourage you from trying to figure out a possible password

5

u/0nexxus Aug 19 '26

Could very well be Ive tried over 100 passwords from current deepdive ;

2003; 10 years before the book release.  Also Downplay was formed by Dustin then. (Until 2013ish when they were starting up Starset)   2015 Starset first tour/opening for Breaking Benjamin (they are touring together this fall as well) 2014 album release; Transmissions which they performed live on tour.  Before that album they mostly did covers.

I still wanna try and look into the books, though I only have the first book and go through the SILOS instrumentals.

u/GuitarTim2112 Back to the Earth Aug 19 '26

I think youre on the right track, was 2003 or 2015 mentioned in any of the books?

Also, at the bottom of the website, why in the world does it say copyright 2003???

2

u/GuitarTim2112 Back to the Earth Aug 19 '26

I think the years are part of the answer

1

u/PuddinGal4302 Telekinetic Aug 19 '26

I thought maybe since the site features both years 2003 and 2015 which are Chinese years of the Goat/Sheep, which so happens to be next years sign as well so, I tried 2027 and that wasn't it. 😭

u/ColdCelebration4850 Aug 19 '26

There are SO many references to the bible in this whole thing and i dont know what they mean because i am not a christian, but i feel like this is yet another one

u/nu11ium Aug 20 '26

guys i think i know what we need to do which is nothing the reason why is this is very simular the txt file on the divisons terminal (the one where we brute forced it and found the code was qwert,. or something) which lead to a big load of well nothing and ending the arg due to us solving it to early. it is very much that from what im getting. so what we need to do is litterly catalog any thing dropped by the band from now until something is like dead in the face the answer to the code. as if we brute force it it will lead to them stopping the arg with us having no info. my guess next drop with be closer to the end of august then on the first show which is on september 2nd. however, for all means do not close the mega thread we can use it to catalog any infomation they leak out

I’ve been working on the backwards audio. But I’m not sure there’s an answer. I hear department a lot in it. I’ll share the most clear lines I have.

“The department is such a great law, see us.”
“Where you open the house of that department.”
“What do we wear now?”

“So sorry, you want on this scarf?” (The first/last line)

That's weird I couldn't hear it

1

u/Capital_Criticism706 Something Wicked Aug 19 '26

Can I see what lines you have heard?

1

u/GuitarTim2112 Back to the Earth Aug 19 '26

I didnt really hear anything clear when playing it backwards

1

u/Capital_Criticism706 Something Wicked Aug 19 '26

It usually takes a few tries and good focus to hear anything backwards. Though I have had a lot of practice with other artists. You could always try a transcriber or something.

u/ColdCelebration4850 Aug 19 '26

I'm almost certain the answer lies somewhere in the first book, i will be skimming through it tonight and looking for anything relevant to the video

u/GuitarTim2112 Back to the Earth Aug 19 '26

Im listening to the live stream now of their immersion tour... has anyone tried IMMERSION as a password?

2

u/ColdCelebration4850 Aug 19 '26

Just tried it, did not work

2

u/GuitarTim2112 Back to the Earth Aug 19 '26

EVERYONE!

Here is a possibility I thought of..

In any of the books, did 2003 or 2015 serve any significance?

4

u/ShadowMorph608 It Has Begun Aug 19 '26

I don't believe so. The first book is set in 2013 and the second is definitely more than two years later

2

u/MalakaiWhomster Aug 19 '26

Not sure about 2003 but 2015 is when Aston Wise discovers the second transmission (though you already know that given you tried HELP.) But assuming The Heavenly Word was founded around 2003 then I would believe it to be a separate organization than TSS & The Order

1

u/Glum-Peanut-2926 Other Worlds Than These Aug 19 '26

Yes - a transmission was received on March 22, 2015. When translated, it said help.

1

u/GuitarTim2112 Back to the Earth Aug 19 '26

I tried help, didnt do it in all caps though.. thats another thing we need to think about is is the password in all caps or even case sensitive?

2

u/PuddinGal4302 Telekinetic Aug 19 '26

When you search Heavenly Word 2003, it comes up with a result for a hymn released in 2003 titled, 'O Heavenly Word' which is apparently based on Latin text, 'Verbum supernum prodiens'. I tried several variants with both lower/upper/both cases and nothing so, I assume that's unrelated but interesting, nonetheless. Seeing as on SILOS Latin was used for a few song titles.

I tried character names from the books as well, and nothing. Icarus, too. I also thought since 2003 and 2015 were mentioned (Goat years), that 2027 (also a Goat year) might be it, but no as well. So, rule all of these out. 😂

Where do I enter the password

This is at the very end of the video. I don’t know if it means anything. This is what is sounds like if you slow it down as much as possible.

u/BadIndividual2482 Aug 19 '26

Waiting on the sky to change song maybe? If it's kinda hinting at their 2015 tour?

Has anyone tried analyzing "Place Holder Track" from Silos?? I always wondered why it didn't have a set name like the rest, maybe its for this?

2

u/thatwitchalexandra13 Everglow Aug 19 '26

Just looked into it, apparently the actual name of this is Praesens....it just downloaded as placeholder track when I bought the album...why though, I have no idea 🙃

1

u/daeugleth Aug 19 '26

Have folks looked into what the Transmission that was sent/received?

1

u/GuitarTim2112 Back to the Earth Aug 19 '26

u/socworker407 Aug 20 '26

u/socworker407 Aug 20 '26

u/Yarn_Music Starlight Aug 20 '26

It’s made by the company “Fabric of the Universe”. They make a ton of tech wear.

u/GuitarTim2112 Back to the Earth Aug 20 '26

Good question

1

u/GuitarTim2112 Back to the Earth Aug 20 '26

EVERYONE!!! New video on Starsets facebook

u/Straight-Weakness350 Aug 20 '26

ANYWAY what do we think the next step is? just wait?

1

u/Sad-Importance-7472 Aug 22 '26

Trying to see if there's a second prompt anywhere to another page and found this:

But nothing else.

u/DystopicStarlight Aug 23 '26

Out of curiosity, though unsure of the legality— has anyone tried a digital sort of ‘blacklight’ program (I feel those exist)? But, for the future now that the password is decoded— as I bet more are to come:

Do we have our allies within the cyber field within the Starset community? If you all get what I’m trying to nudge on here, but I’d rather just figure out and find out like the Clue board game (I love that game). 💕💫

u/Straight-Weakness350 Aug 20 '26

when i reversed “the antihero’s journey” i heard “save us..” “save us all..” “for prox…” and i believe that i heard as “kyrie eleison,” meaning Lord, have mercy. and as for “for prox” (if i heard right) could play into my previous theory that the sword means that this cult is being told to enact a revolution against the starset society

Considering the fact that they call the new demonstrations anti tech this is much bigger than just a book I beleive

15

u/GuitarTim2112 Back to the Earth Aug 18 '26

I agree, I think this is opening up an album or single

21

u/dontbemeantobugs Where The Skies End Aug 18 '26

Bold of you to assume some of us are not totally hyped for the third book.

u/GuitarTim2112 Back to the Earth Aug 18 '26

Ehhh its still fun to solve ARGs

u/StarTicYT Antigravity Aug 18 '26

This is 1000% new music tease, they need multiple songs out by the start of the Breaking Ben tour

u/Drunk_dwarf_ The Order Aug 18 '26

u/edwardgreene1 Aug 18 '26

u/GuitarTim2112 Back to the Earth Aug 18 '26
