I seriously think this band is underrated and should be much more popular BUT i believe that's about to change with them joining TOOL as special guest on their European Tour later this year. It's a great opportunity for them to get massively recognized. ❤

I think the biggest barrier is just not having a vocalist. I love instrumental music but the vast majority of people aren’t that into it and want vocals to connect to.

@@davidleech8270 Who cares about mainstream? Most of it is terrible anyway! Long live great original music! Animals as Leaders were tiny when I saw them open for Dredg in 2010 and now they do pretty well. I am sure Night Verses will see the same!
Aric has to be one of the most under-rated drummers in music at the moment. Stunning. Deserves some big props from those in the drumming World.

Opening for TOOL ain't too shabby.
Love the occasional band playthroughs!
I’m so glad these guys are finally gaining more attention. I’ve been a massive fan since they dropped From the Gallery of Sleep, and with that album, it was obvious to me that they’d be at the forefront of prog metal. They’re all world-class musicians and insanely creative. They sound so familiar yet totally unique. Now all we need is for them to hop on a big tour!
Aric is in the Top 5 Drummers on the Planet

He’s currently my favorite. Lots of great drummers out there and I don’t really listen to prog/metal much these days- but the way he sneaks in his cymbal work is just like.. “how??”
I LOVE ARIC IMPROTA!
They are some seriously ambidextrous musicians, man there good!!!🤯👋🤘❤
Holy those drum sounds are sick.
This band is incredibly talented and really should be bigger than they are. Been a fan of them since the beginning and the chemistry between Aric, Nick, & Reilly truly is something special
One of my favourite bands rn!
Is insane how clean, loud and fast Aric is. All that while being so creative, without a doubt one of the best drummers in the world
This is so nasty...speechless 🔥
You've got a new fan. Great stuff.
This band is so damn good. wtf
- Salesman: how many effects pedals do you want sir? - Nick DePirro: yes
Excellent !!
Best drummer of all time
This is insane!
Love this! Go ARIC
Such an amazing band! Recently got into NV, lovely stuff
Can we get a live recording with brandon boyd or anthony green, too?
First time I saw you was when you competed in the GC Drum Off. Your intensity mixed with insane chops blew me away. And I thought you won that thing hands down. Keep inspiring brother 🙏👊
Drummer like a ninja... Amazing!
@MeinlCymbal I Love it
dope!
Rock Lives!!!! ❤
their music has sorta got longer and more chaotic... but its still really good
Nice. i like this.
Bass and guitar are 2:00 ❤ And Drums always 🔥
Awesome stuff!!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

is the geometry on the drum heads sacred geometry or regular geometry
God damn!
Props to Aric for pushing metal drumming forward. The whole band is amazing, though.

Just completely abso-friggen-lutely ridiculous. 3 god-tier musicians firing on all cylinders
Recognized this band from abasi guitar. They have unique tones/nuances, but I can't describe that.
Aric is night verses frontman and I love it

2nd favourite track off the new album. Phoenix being the best 👌👌👌

The guitar player looks like if Mike Shinoda and Big Jay Oakerson had a baby

Some drum parts sound awfully a lot like Guillotine's intro from Stray From The Path lmao

Why?
Drummer was too busy and the mix covered up the guitar.

He filled in every last bit of time with noise, where’s the space to build tension? From 200hz-1,000hz it’s muddy and the guitar and bass loses definition besides the occasional melodic notes that peak through. Composition and mixing are a matter of preference, and to me, the drums were busy and the drum mix overshadowed the melodic elements of the music.

@@crashthekid It’s called prog with a lot of contrasting elements. We can use eq and a band of numbers to describe it if you like but that doesn’t really describe aesthetics. To put it this way, these guys have been chosen to open for Tool at the starting dates of their euro tour. Being one of the biggest bands in our genre seems like quite a vote of confidence to me. More than you or me being commenters on KZread.

@@gmyersgilmer9470 Did I mention aesthetics? I don't care what they look like. Yes, frequency is a good way to describe the quantitative and qualitative qualities of music. ItS cAlLeD pRoG... obviously bruh. I listen to metal and prog everyday. A lot of metal mixes lack tonal definition in the guitars and bass. I have a bachelors in composition and a masters in music from Berklee, amd im a professional audio engineer. This music lacks counterpoint and substance. Plus, prog is supposed to have different time signatures and all their music is in 4/4. I can't describe music unless I mix the album? That statement is not backed by any logic. In all honesty , that's awesome that they are opening for Tool for a couple shows. Good for them and I wish them all the success on their tour and finding new fans. They aren't that popular though, 80k monthly listeners is way below average considering most bands have 200-300k and Polyphia has 1.5 Million monthly listeners.
The video is massively out of sync.
