This and Caligula's Horse - The Stormchaser are my 2 top contenders so far. Dirty Loops - Run Away is close too just cause it's such a fun bop.

Beginning my Descent to Hell by Before I Turn is still top dog for me so far, with Afterimage by Northlane as a close second. That being said, I haven’t listened to this album yet, and I love Night Verses.

Bro what in the FUCK is this production though?? This might be literally the heaviest song I have ever heard. You were right man this album is fookin mental

This is also my song of the year contender right now. Night Verses is the best instrumental band out there, period!

This song deserves to be on a "Playlist for the Apocalypse". Sounds apocalyptic af but also has beautiful melodic passages. It reminded me to something Humanity's Last Breath would write and that's a HUGE compliment.

Man. These guys are insane. The drummer has literally blown my mind. 🤯 was awesome to wake up to this album the other day ❤

An excerpt of a note from Aric Improta on the music video for Phoenix IV: Levitation (which in and of itself is intrinsically linked to the song) “The Phoenix series is a collective reflection of our most prominent influences put together into one composition during the period which they were created, to act as a personal time capsule of where we were creatively during the years which each record was composed. Those influences are not limited to just music. We've often use film as a source of inspiration to help guide the direction of our songs and albums."

I... I'm sorry... I didn't know this band... Now I want to check out all of their songs... This is deserving SOTY now and it's gonna be hard to beat that one.

@@DrewFortune97 Ok I'm in love with this band ! Thank you for that Mr Fortune !

Night Verses is amazing I got into them from their 2018 album From The Gallery Of Sleep. The songs Copper Wasp & Vice Wave are absolute banger's from that album! When I heard they came back out of a 5 year hiatus and was putting out a new album I was so stoked. Also the drummer Aric Improta is an absolute beast behind the kit! \m/

I HIGHLY recommend you check out "Phoenix IV: Levitation" off their previous album. This entire band is an experience but that song in particular is god tier. Also, fun little fact: I've been following them since their first LP, and I noticed that they end their albums the same way they begin their previous albums. So that vocal sample you hear at the very end of this song, it's also sampled in the very beginning of their previous album, etc etc. Cool little thing they do

This right here is one of the reasons I follow youtubers like you: because you guys make me discover INSANE music like this song! I mean, WTF was that, it was absolutely incredible!!! (Yeah the other reason is to watch you go crazy to music I already know and love, lol)

For sure, man. Spotify randomly recommended this band to me and I was hooked from the start. Stank face in the first minute, haha.

Holy shit!

Went in with no idea what to expect, but yeah, this is sick. Definitely getting added to my Spotifly.

I've been enjoying Aska (feat. Author & Punisher)

Dude you’re totally right about showing this to new people. I’m hooked to these guys like I am to Modern Day Babylon. Instrumental mastery!

This album is fucking incredible! Best instrumental post metal stuff I've heard since Isis or Cult of Luna

First time listening to this band and wow I think you may be right!

Hey, I remember your Tool journey and how you fell into the Tool rabbit-hole. Same thing happened to me many years ago, butI have always wanted to listen to Maynard's other projects. Always thought they were side projects, but let me tell you Puscifer is an amazing band in itself and definitely not just a side project. I know you have done a couple of APC reviews, but please consider doing some Puscifer reviews. IMHO every Tool fan should give a thorough listen to Puscifer as it will be right up their alley! Tool is always going to be my all time favorite band, but Puscifer has risen to a close second!!

This is so insane and groovy lol love it

I am rocking out, never heard much of Night Verses before, but got onto it via my brother and the track w Brandon boyd. Youre incredibly still for how intense this song is

i can feel some mick gordon here

The Phoenix series is probably the best thing you're gonna listen to!!!

Just listened to their 2018 album yesterday actually, you should check out Copper Wasp- it’s probably my favorite instrumental metal track ever.

Honestly wasn't sure they could follow up From the Gallery of Sleep. Love to be surprised.

I can't wait to see these guys support tool.

This is awesome 🤩 just as good as the album from last year🎉

actually never seen someone get chills on a stream/react vid crazy this album is insane one song I'll never get back was 2022's Rolo Tomassi song DRIP ...that album was insane too, real cut above

THIS SLAYED. NEW IMMINENCE JUST SLAYED TOO

The ending sample is the intro to copper wasp. It must hit so hard live!!!

Phoenix V: Invocation is 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Funny, I wanted to comment you on your next video that part 2 is out, but already did an entire album listen! Nice! Btw if you haven't heard from the gallery of sleep, please do, another master piece of an album!

After listening to this a few times, it just keeps getting better. My SOTY was going to be from vildhjarta, but this is a contender. Great video as always drew.

I've had this song on repeat for the past week. FOR ME, it pairs with the eclipse so well!

Sweet!

I was pretty skeptical because I tend to have a hard time listening to instrumental-only stuff. I'm a writer so lyrics mean a ton to songs (at least for me). But WOW... the more I delved into this one with you, Drew, the more I was just blown away. So freaking sick. And yes, SOTY contender for sure.

As a writer, what's your favourite 3 vocalists (metal or otherwise) ? For me, it's Dustin Kensrue - Thrice Benjamin Stewart - Slowly Slowly Kevin Dye - gates But I agree, lyrics are a major component in how much I'll like a song.

thats crazy how even after this banger album still so many people never heard about them, honestly probably AOTY but i would love to be proven wrong

I’ll watch this when I finish listening to the album today.

Song of the year for a moment… New Imminence just released.

Phoenix IV Levitation is still my favorite Phoenix song
