Hard to realistically put this feature above Chino going off and Steve Vai giving the full cosign and solo of the year.

The communication between the bass and kit is absurd. So good. It’s practically telekinesis

You and me brother. The drums and fills during the solo are freaking insane, and so clean in rhythm and volume it sounds like midi drums. Those rolls dude.. Blew me away

As a bass player, I love this track and ABC a lot because Bass Clay gets a chance to shine a little more, whereas you know he holds back in a lot of places because he always knows when it's good to hang back and keep the rhythm going and when to go just as hard as the guitars. That ghost note section kills me every time, man. That shit is Claymania right there.

It seems like they did at least two tracks that highlight each players strengths specifically, which I love.

Polyphia do such a great job of when they have a feature, they write a song that sounds like something their feature would write turned into a Polyphia song. This album and the New Levels New Devils album do a great job demonstrating that.

I saw them live a couple months ago and said to somebody else in line that this is probably the last time we will see them live before they blow up. I think artists are going to be lining up to do a track with them. After listening to this new album ABC made more sense to me. When they feature a musician they don't squeeze them into whatever they are playing. They truly collaborate and play to their guest. So in the case of ABC they played straight up cute pop music.

Unsure if anyone else mentioned this before, but Clay worked with Luke Holland on 6 songs off this album, where Luke created the original parts and clay augmented them slightly with extra fills and such. Incredible duo!

Of all the songs on the album, this song has the most distinct Luke Holland feel to the drumming. It just works so fucking well

Audacity and reverie are prob my 2 favorites from the non-singles

Listened to the album last night and this was the one song I absolutely needed you to check out. So happy you did this so fast!!

Anomalie could be heard on almost every one of our uni parties (mostly jazz students) and his Metropole totally slaps

Anomalie was formely known as the keyboardist for Grammatik, but he started doing his own thing around 2016/17 if I remember correctly. He has changed quite a bit since the his project's inception, but in recent years french romantic jazz has seeped in to most of his songs. If you decide to give some of his music a listen you should consider his debut single "Odyssée". It has a performance video and it is an absolute clusterfck of a song. Otherwise, his song 'Crescent' also has a great performance video, and is more in tune with his current style of music :). Cheers!

Anomalie deserves so much recognition

It's like they have a machine that they put genres into, and it grinds them up, distills the mixture, and spits out purified mixed-genre essence.

I would give my left kidney to see them A Cappella this track!

the album has so many different genres (Jazz, Flamenco, Shoegaze, Math Rock, Hip Hop, Metal, and more) but still remains uniquely polyphia

This is legit peak musician. Like I dont really have to have music knowledge to recognise this god level of playing music. Like this legit feels like alien music(in a good way). Just pure insanity. My mind blows away every time I listen to it

Finding out a Canadian worked on this track makes it all the more better, let's go

Bruh the level of unison they do in parts where everybody plays (notably anomaly, tim and scott) is way too crazy not to note. This album's skill and creativity levels are HIGH and this is definitely one of my favorites. I absolutely loved Genesis as an opener as well and that Chino Moreno track brought me memories I thought I've already forgotten.

this song is amazing!! thank you Tony for your reaction videos.

Love the way you react. It’s informative and actually not annoying

super prog fusion jazz. Proving they can do it all.

After I did my first album listen through, this track was the first one I came back to when I was finished. This may be my favorite track from the album. It’s pretty amusing that ABC is nearly smack dab in the middle to lighten things up

Always love your reactions bro! Keep up the great work!

I think this is my favourite track from the new album...every aspect of this is outstanding and ever so slightly different to other Polyphia sounds...GREAT! Cheers for the review Tony :)

I love both artists this is one of the best songs on the album. It will probably never happen but I would love to hear a full collab album or even just an EP between them

I really enjoyed your reactions man, especially on how you explains it musically. Still waiting for you to react on mixed nuts and racing into the night.

I love this reaction. This is amazing, thank you

Reverie is definitely my favorite off the album. Absolutely filthy

I feel like this song is extremely underrated. I didn't like it the first time I heard it, but once I heard it a few more times and started really picking out the nuances, it really grew on me and is possibly one of my absolute favorite songs of all time. (This also seems to reiterate your point about not really hearing everything in a song just listening to it from start to finish first).

I hadn't had the opportunity to spin the new album until just a few minutes ago while driving to go get food and this one broke my brain. Windows down, max volume and I was just grunting and gasping in absolute disbelief, practically broke my brain 😂

I had the same reaction my first listen. So much going on!

"You can't take this in in one listen, it doesn't work that way" No kidding, I listened to this song for 2 days straight when it came out.

this track reminds me of Shobaleader One, IDM/Breakbeat artist Squarepusher's live Jazz Fusion band. if this is your thing, check out their live versions of Squarepusher's Theme and Cooper's World. the chops to play Breakbeat drums on a set are just unreal. favorite track outside of the singles is Bloodbath with Chino.

That's very much my thing

5:09 my exact reaction

If you wanna hear some of Anomalie's keyboard wizardry, check out Velours and Crescent to get a good idea. Honestly this song is a good intro, it's as much his style as it is Polyphia's

I happened to find Anomlie a couple weeks before this album released. I actually didn’t realize until watching this video who it was.

Fucking hell this might be my new favourite polyphia song. Fusion polyphia is crazy.

Came back because this is a great one to introduce certain people to the channel. Something occurred to me. Where other reactors will sit and scratch their heads over something...at length...on camera. You just say "yeah we aren't getting into that right now" and move on. That's the pro move for sure.

Check out Reverie also from this album.

You should definitely react to some Anomalie stuff...all of his songs are fire!!!!

This might be... my favorite reaction from you. So far.

Looking forward to the full hour long album react video (please)

Whole album reaction?

I think for this type of complicated and layer dense music, rewinding a listening again and again is nearly essential. I like this type of video more because it's more of an analysis than a reaction. It's what brings me back to channels like yours. I think the only reactor I'm subbed to that doesn't do the pause, rewind, and analyze bit is Critical Reactions. That dude is really smart though. The reactors that bother me are the ones that pause without rewinding. It's sort of disrespectful, I feel, I just skip over them.

I'm sitting here with my youngest son and explaining to him how to LISTEN to music, he loves polyphia since I play the sh#t everyday.lol..he said dad.you listen to music just like this guy....respect

Bro you have to check out El Estepario Siberiano. A crazy drummer from Spain that’s just sick!!

You should check out reverie there’s an incredible bass solo in the middle

Only fairly recently found this band...this piece brings Jean - Luc Ponty's work to mind more than Chic Corea or Herbie Hancock but then, some sounds do sound like Hancock. Ponty's "Enigmatic Ocean" would be a comparison even if it is not as busy.

Can I suggest you to watch a few songs from Ado ? She's pretty popular and have made some songs for some anime like One Piece lately, i'd be interested in watching you reacts to song such as "Tot Musica" for exemple, she have a very unique voice.

I recommend you to watch «Non-breath Oblige» (it's got a goat-like boy on the preview) from miy_yuu (miyashita yuu). This guy's got insane voice and I'm still shocked why no anime studio hasn't hired him to do an opening for a show yet Also, if you're gonna be looking forward to watch some of his other videos, I definitely recommend Vozvald and Kilmer

So I'm not sure why people find this track interesting. It's a basic jazz-rockhop 563/181 time signature that alternated between e-sharp and z-flat minor.

might sound like a stupid thing to say but this feels like the most technical song on the album. maybe not the most difficult (damn close though) but the mix between the thumping on guitar, the drum fills, the slap bass and the keyboard runs, definitely the most technical imo
