darker still is the song of the year, amazing.
The song Darker still speaks to the depths of my soul… honestly kept me alive the last few months
Thank you to the conductor. Its nice to hear someone who understands so much goes into Heavy metal. instead of hearing heavy metal is just "Screaming"
This album has quite frankly changed my life significantly. It helped me to dig deep and find the strength to overcome some heavy challenges while at work. This album has played a vital role in a revitalised me👌
The whistle is definitely great again. Been bloody walking around whistling that tune for a month now - its so friggin catchy.
This is by far my favourite album, and "Darker Still" is my favourite song of this year. You guys are absolute legends!!!

@RJ Phoenix I'm gonna guess you're a new fan of PWD because the soft radio rock style theyve been doing lately is far from what they used to be.
Lord knows the amount of times I have been listening to Darker Still on repeat!! My first album of PWD to listen to and my fav. Thank you PWD for a great album.
This album is sick. I know it's miles from Horizons but it really doesn't matter. Early Parkway, new Parkway, they're different but they're both great. It doesn't need to be one vs. the other, we can just love that this great band is still around and still making great music.

Yeh dude I’m hearing you. I’m not loving this album but it does my head in how people complain when bands evolve. Id rather them Evolve away from my interests then just turn out 20 albums that all sound the same. Ire was a huge step away from what they’d done to that point and it’s one of my favourite albums they’ve done.

@@dbo4506 at first this album felt like one of their weaker ones to me but it's really grown on me the more I've listened to it. It's catchy but there's also a fair bit of depth to the songs. That's just my opinion though. Everyone is gonna like different things, I'm just glad Parkway is still around and still making music.

I wish I felt this way. Just not a fan of anything after Atlas. I keep coming back hoping they drop something that gives me the fleeting feeling that Deep Blue gave me.
The fact that with the last 2 albums they also introduced classical trained musicians to heavy music and bridge the gaps is awesome and deserves kudos. So definetely worth changing their style to accomplish that. Music should bring people together. The classical arrangements sound awesome by themselves and the accapella choir almost had me in tears. Beautiful.
I love seeing this. It gives you a deeper appreciation of the work that goes into making such a great album.
Parkway will always hold a very close and dear place in my heart.
How this doesn’t have 200000 likes is beyond me. Thank you Parkway Drive. You are my motivation every day in the gym since I started back. Crazy shit is that day I started was the first day I heard them.

Not everyone's fav band is PWD
The fact they went and united with a full blown orchestra on some songs blows my mind. These have been and will always next level 🤙🏼🤙🏼
This is giving a little piece of heaven vibes. So many different elements coming together to make a masterpiece!
Das Orchester, der Chor und die Frau, die pfiff- super Zusammenstellung 😍
For me. Best 2022 album.
That studio looks so comfortable.. I could live in there
Best album 2022
Thank you guys. I love maturing in life along with one of my favorite bands.
Darker Still is such an awesome song. The melodies burnt in my brain when i heard you guys live. And the layers you put together is probably the best composing i heard in a very long time. Pls keep doing those experiments, they sound f***ing amazing. And the orchestration is totaly right, metal can be highly energetic and expressive and very complex on melody. From close to none, to parts that sing themself.
Masterpiece! Every album from this MUSIC HALL OF FAME BAND IS AN ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE!! PERIOD.....THEY WILL BE IN THE HALL OF FAME!!
Love the way they've progressed as musicians and not giving what ppl want. Legends
Masterpiece Album
this album is just so emotional, love thath, hope the best for this band !
Make it a Documentary! Love it, Favourite Album 2022!
Hearing those snippets of isolated choir / orchestra is amazing, I'd love to hear those isolated sections in full
Epic song and album!
Darker Still is the Black Album of Parkway Drive. They envolved pretty cool since killing with a Smile. And Darker Still is their Masterpiece. Keep it that Way.
Every orchestral part, seeing that all being tracked, is so mesmerising. Top work all around - to the band & every musician that worked on the record. Stunning efforts all around 🙏
I don’t care what anyone else says I really liked darker still. Plus I got to see you guys live for the first time a couple months ago and it was amazing! It was the first time I’ve been in a crowd where everyone front to back was moshing
Darker still is one of the best songs written in the last 30 years. Period.
I love this album. The energy that comes out of every song moves me in one way or another. I can't wait to see you guys in February!
This is my favourite record of 2022!!, and 5FDP are my favourite band. 'Darker Still' just kicks arse and lands on every level. Love PWD anyway, and I thought Reverence was a killer record. This is on a whole new level. Awesome!
Darker Still is just so fine and mature Powerful yet calm
Darker still amazing song
Incredible album! and seeing the process behind making it makes me appreciate it even more. Thank you!
Eff yes on the whistling.
My favorite band... ❤
Dude , you guys killed it with this song. So many different styles and vibes in this , in the beginning I hear a Dire Straits type Rift from Brothers in Arms. The whistle is so Like Scorpions Winds of Change, and so much of your style! Drums that make you float , they lift you up, Guitars in your style stand lone. How you added Orchestra too, And your lead singer is walking a path all of his own. Dark is good ! The darker the better! More like Darker Still!
With those choir vocals and that orchestra, I can just imagine the lads being in their own movie where Winston is like a God and the other guys are fallen angels that he has to rescue or something epic as hell
Awesome album, I love so much!!! Thank you for this wonderful music you are creating!
A song always in my playlist
The conductor is like many people I've met in life that don't realise metal music is more than yelling and noise. I've said many times to people , have you actually heard or listened to the lyrics. What the song is about, what it's saying. There's alot of meaningful, powerful music out there. just need to give it a try and listen.
They are spot on👿
So good!
The new album is amazing and absolutely ass kicking! 🤘🤘🤘🤘 Thank you PWD for another brilliant album.
I love this song so much
this is far beyond an "regular" Metal/Metalcore Album and i love it to the core.

Im not sure i would call This metalcore, i dont know what genre it is, Idk Why people hate on metalbands changing their style, bands evolve their music change. This is by far the best metal album released in 2023
saw them live this year. Best concert i have been all my life. Saw some big bands in my short live. But this was unreal
this was easy amongst my top 3 albums of the year! just a work of art. and seing how they did it at least a small glimpse of it is just awesome!
Love band, love album, love you guys♥️
Darker Still and The greatest fear... 🔥
The album is great, listen to it up and down all day long.I've been listening to rock/metal all my life since the 70s. Parkway Drive is awesome. Thanks guys!
My favorite album this year and one of my favorites from PD as a whole. Can't wait to see what the future holds for you guys! 💙
Love these guys ❤️ seen them 20 times now 👍
I will never be able to listen to this album the same again... This is absolutely sick!
What a massive album. Rock On 🤘
Damn when the choir sang "in death we all sing the hymns of nevermore" gave me chills.. Epic song
I Love this its so amazing to see the behind the scene of how each song comes together. this whole album is a masterpiece.
Wow.... So much afford. But it was absolutely worth it! I love this song!
This album is awesome in every way. Thanks for not standing still. ❤
Wow what a band! Each time they put their new albums on a level higher!
Parkway Drive und Deutschland - eine ganz besondere Liebe 🤍

5:00 Nice, Remscheid is my hometown✌🏻

Everyone was always talking shit but look how much they put into their album to make sure it’s authentic. They could have done all this on a computer but they made sure it was the real deal. This made me appreciate them so much more
Great job guys..... Can't wait to see u in September.🤘
Wow wow wow fing wow. What an amazing group of people to get an amazing sound. Everyone involved needs a hug ❤

This album was the coolest thing that happened in 2022, my biggest wish is to see you guys play some of the songs live... My favorite part is that "hoo-haa" in "From the heart of the darkness"😅🔥 pretty killer ❤️🤘🏼I love you guyys, now and always ❤️❤️❤️from South Africa 🇿🇦
Parkway drive killed on shiprocked when I saw them in January and now I will finally see them at AFTERSHOCK!!! Sacramento Ca baby!! who is going ???????????
Sick GUYS so love your music,keep smashing it PARKWAY DRIVE.
I'm not crying, you are! 🖤
For me this is the greatest metal album for years. Since release I listened to it many times and still I get goosebumps every time. Nice work Parkway Drive.
Everyone hated this album, but how can you hate these guys. Most wholesome guys I've ever met. They took time to talk to me after show. Good guys. Haven't listen to the album need to
ребята гении, спасибо вам за вашу музыку, она вдохновляет меня !!!!
Parkway Drive is a fine wine, just getting better with age. Love you my boys. Viva the underdogs!
Fuck yes. Can’t wait until Brisbane 2023 brothers.
This album went so hard, can't wait to see y'all in march for the first time. Loved this video as well btw
Its a EPIC Album.
amazing job 🤠 I hope some day Parkway drive plays in Mexico 🤠😎
Hands down a killer album. Music has to adapt, and bands have to make changes to stay relevant. If you ask me, I think Parkway Drive did just that. Fantastic job guys, can’t wait to see what comes next!
A symphonic arrangement would be incredibly awesome
the choir part is hella dope
I'd like to see more studio stuff! Great work guys!!🤘🏻
More of this!!
Hate this album but doesn't change how amazing their old music is.
My album of the year!
Parkway drive literally outplayed slipknot at knotfest Melbourne, it was an amazing performance. Energy was next fucking level. Amazing band live 🤘🤘🤘
Super interesting to see how many parts are actually involved in this musical masterpiece!
This is awesome, thanks for sharing!
Парни, считаю этот альбом лучшим в вашей истории. Такая не обычная, узнаваемая музыка. Для меня Darker Still вероятно лучший альбом в этом ебучем 2022 году. Надеюсь когда нибудь вы сможете вернуться в Россию
