If I am not mistaken, the word "Monomyth" was coined/crafted by James Joyce in Finnegans Wake (perhaps the most impenetrably esoteric book known to man) and was repurposed by mythology scholar Joseph Campbell to talk about the journey of departure and return undertaken by heroes throughout world mythology: "The standard path of the mythological adventure of the hero is a magnification of the formula represented in the rites of passage: separation-initiation-return: which might be named the nuclear unit of the monomyth" (from The Hero With a Thousand Faces) Is it any coincidence that this catchy little tune has elements from all previous AAL releases? From the manic thumping of Madness, to the melodious epicness of Joy, to the dreamy and unnerving electronic textures of Weightless and, of course, the absurdly mindblowing shredding of the eponymous 1st album? It's all there: snippets from the cycle of the AAL discography, mixed together into a whole new brew of sonic deliciousness... Looking forward to the album!!!!

RAMMSTEIN does a similar all male dance in one of their videos very graphic. yes. circle pit but almost orgiastic too.

I've watched this video so many times, and I get chills every single time. The music and choreography work so beautifully in tandem that they create such a strange trance in my brain. It seems both so visceral yet calming. Idk how else to describe it.

I've always wanted to see something like this... I think the music lends it self to all kinds of dance and with a good choreography it just adds to it. ALSO I'm soooooo happy to see credits. Too often the people that put in all that hard work get no shine now a days. All around amazing on everyones part AND THE SONG SLAPS! Dap to everyone involved.

"'Monomyth' is part fever dream, part ritual. Its imagery represents man's ceaseless attempts to translate transcendent ideas into movement. The conflation of struggle with meaning. Pain with significance. The ultimate failure of distilling perceived patterns in the world into knowledge." -Tosin Abasi

My belief is that "The Joy of Motion" is my favorite album by AAL. This song has shown me MUCH of that album's technique and tone. I AM MOST IMPRESSED>

Just the greatest thank you, AAL. What a great song & visuals!

This literally gives me chills. I think Matt has really helped push them towards exploring what they can do rhythmically to the fullest. To me this song is phrased like Matt played a big role in writing it. I absolutely fucking love it.

yea he played a big role in Madness of Many. Arithmophobia was based on an idea of his! And they do a ton more metric modulation because of him

Down when they tour again. Start a movement lmao

The choreography and cinematography added so much to AAL’s already mind blowing music. Just fantastic 🔥🔥🔥

The thing i most enjoy here is the melting of sound, motion and rhythm into the wholeness of an individual expression of art

absolutely beautiful! love the song and the dancers were absolutely amazing. the choreography is so unique and chilling

1:20 When you get a strike at the bowling alley

What have they done?? This is incredible & exactly what we needed !!! Can’t wait for the album 💿 !!!

I've seen it a trillion times and always come for more!! Love the song, aesthetics and movement of this video!

Organic and synchronized. Mystic and progressive. 🔥🎵

So....props to the choreographer and dancers for nailing this. That's insane.

I imagine Matt just out of frame patiently counting out the meter for all the dancers haha

This was beautiful

Incredible video! Just happened to come across this on my recommendation bar, so happy I clicked 🤘

i can't get over how insane the double bass work is on this track. you can tell Matt want to prove that he's been working on it A LOT. absolutely fucking monster track. can't wait for the rest!!!

The video is so well choreographed!

This is the best interpretation of dancing to animals as leaders
