This takes me back to high school, smoking weed out my window in the middle of the night jamming to this entire album. Still love it, thanks for the memories Modern Day Babylon
Lmao Some fear factory and white zombie was my time for those days, but love the comment and this band, and this entire album is still on every playlist I got.
Hope so, cuz if RUclips yanked it I'd be effin pissed. I have not heard anything by this project I don't like...fully admitting that I'm partial to fretboard acrobats and writers with one or more prime numbers in the numerator (s, in case polyrhythms) of time signatures... I wonder what would happen when a computer puts a complex number into a denominator of a time signature and squares it after making it negative first. An odd number of dimensions could yield interesting results even if one is only temporarily emergent to the operation.
It has been almost 7 years, yet this album holds such a unique ahead of its time sound to it.

We listened to this one a long time ago and loved it. We shared on Facebook but no one cares Facebook's Memories remind us We come back and listen to this masterpiece every year in the same day, same month like a religious stuff
Speechless. Why did I never fully give these guys a shot in the past? Really driving me to be more and more open minded as I get older. I feel so satisfied within.
+Trevor Philips do you acutally meditate? I just started but i'm not that like involved yet is there any techniques you recommend? I also heard it can help shy people and introverts are there certain techniques in that?
You are quite a Djentleman, saw your comment but I can tell you personally that all these bands have one thing in common. Techno pantheism, nanotechnology is becoming the mark of the beast.
ChelseaGrinMan001 One great trick is to, with your eyes shut, watch your breathing as if it was a machine doing it independant of you. View yourself from the outside. Do this solid for 10 minutes, and see what your results are.
Circling back on this stuff almost a decade later and it hasn't aged somehow. Watching your playthroughs back in the day was the best unintentional skervesen ad ever (not too dissimilar to Chris Letchford putting Strandberg on the map). Early 2000s was an insane time for this genre, only a few years after obzen planted the seed for everyone.
You know, I keep listening to this album(over the last few years), and can't help but think it's one of my favorite instrumental albums of all time. It's so beautiful, melodic, and brutal heavy at times, but never looses focus. Every song has memorable parts, that stick with you through the song. Awesome job.
this album makes me feel like im living life, this album is out of this world awesome, i sent this to a friend of mine, and thanked me on his knees for sending this to him, no joke
This is fucking amazing. This with the deep cave ambiance of Starbound in the background is the best combination of music and video game ever fucking imagined.
I saw these guys open for The Algorithm last night in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada and they kicked serious ass! It's a shame more people weren't there for that all-ages show, but Monday was a holiday here, and I think most people were wiped out & broke from the long weekend. I hope that doesn't discourage them (or The Algorithm!), from coming back here!? Anyway, I got a few pics and Vines which I'll post later. Not the best quality, but it's the best I could do at the time. I really wanted to get one of their oversized colour shirts, but I just couldn't afford it. I strongly suggest catching them on this tour of you can. You won't be disappointed!
This has to be one of my favorite progressive metal albums of all time... very few albums get the perfect balance of beautiful melodies and heavy, crushing riffs... but this album just does. Insane piece of art
Some solid dent here. The part that sticks out to me most is the ambience. Absolutely amazing. I can tell you guys had a sound you were going for and fuckin nailed it.
The thing I love most about this is how it chugs yet still remains to be innovative and very technical. Beautiful artwork indeed and props to the guy who made this!
please don't thank god for youtube... the internet is straight up evil on its own without specifically a video hosting website recievibg praise. this website is disgusting along with what it promotes. however these guys??? are fucking epic. so is intervals. invite you to check them out. and substructure, and Chemically Continued
***** NO. i HATE that word. it implies tradition and expectation and i feel like that word better describes a cult than a form of belief. I believe that Jesus is my saviour and the bible is the best option we have to understand who and what He is. and through this quest and through this path of discovering "truth" i realised how evil the internet is. especially youtube. if your honestly curious... the problem is our kids today are being raised by the media. youtube is raising your child. Free access to ANY information on the planet with NO restrictions starting when they can work a i phone. its disgusting. these kids are growing up thinking that the crazy and sinfull of the world are whats expected of them to fit in. as this trend continues through time, we will see a speedier and speedier degredation of society. All brought about through propaganda, lies, deception, and FREE INSTANT MEDIA ACCESS ANYWHERE ON THE PLANET>
haha grow up catholic?? your experiance with christianity isn't everybodys... i used to play bass for a touring christian rock band. i'm 24. we've played with demon hunter, decyfer down, seventh day slumber, ALMOST RED... point is... i've SEEN God work, i've seen things happen, little things that seem wierd at first and then ultimately a purpose for us being broke down in THIS spot would arise.. just saying bro. people are not stupid, Nobody. and everyone chooses different paths. I bet i could prove to you the bible is true Just in its end time prophecy if nothing else... don't discredit me because i believe in jesus , i don't need your approval. you need Jesus' approval. lol
ShatterBassMan I like your perspective on your discipleship. I think it might be a bit harsh to label religion as cultish, but I can totally relate to what you say about Jesus being your savior. I wouldn't label myself a "Christian" because these days the persona of Christianity is so skewed the public immediately labels them as kool aid drinking lunatics. There's historical proof that Jesus walked this earth, and whether or not He is the Son of God is a whole other debate, but I'm on your side here man. Stay strong!
Absolutely D-fucking-SGUSTING!!! Purely vile! Makes my sick to my stomach in the best possible way! Look of pure disgust on my face the entire time this album is playing! That breakdown at the end of Currency is easily one of the nastiest I've ever heard! Love, love LOVE it! Hope to see them live one day!
-scrollin through youtube -listening to metal bands - clicks on link expecting gay band - shits pants - owes apology - cleans up shit with favorite shirt out of respect...
5:30 and 26:19 are my favourite moments on the entire album. There is so much emotion and melody that contrasts with the darkness of the majority of the album, it gives me goosebumps every time.
I have to say... Travelers (song) sounds very much like Intervals' song Epiphany to a certain element (mainly in the first minute or so, then it definitely changes big time). Definitely not the same song, just similar in sound. Still great, and I will definitely be picking this album up. Beautiful composure and solid work.
Dude i am blown away. I just randomly clicked on your guys becasue of your name and i am speechless. Some of the best djent ive listened to. deffinatly one of my new favorite bands. keep it up and continue to expand your empire ;D
I dig the purple/pink color infusion you guys are adding to the prog scene. Though shivers was more liquid purple with agean blue undertones, Travelers is definitely bringing back that void-blue and occasionally existential green that characterize poly-metric space metal, while still having that idiosyncratic MDB pink-flecked-twangy-citrus vibe. dig it.
Yeah that is me, I focus on my health and take it pretty seriously. Funny thing is about 10 years ago I was almost 400lbs and totally out of shape. I came to a turning point in my life and have not looked back since....I focused on Education, Exercise, nutrition and my unstoppable desire. Through it all I found who I really was and this is what emerged. Thanks for the compliment!
Jody Hughes I applaud you good sir, I love hearing about people like you who just totally turn their lives around! I am getting started pretty young on fitness and nutrition (18yrs), and I am going to stick with it for as long as I live. Congrats on your sick progress be very proud!
You should sell the Midi drum maps for all the tracks on your website, those are great fun to mess around with. You could sell them as a pack or individually and have some extra income right there. I would buy all of them for sure.
Tomas, you're the great! Very talented and creative musician. I'm impressed. I had listening many times MDB's songs. Travelers is the most beautiful metal progressive album I ever listened. God bless MDB!
sure beats the s* out of what Ryan Seacrest plays on the disney channel :) "bbbut baby ... you make *me* crazy" lol, gawd what a bunch of crap we are subjected to listening to. The band in this vid scores ultimate cool points.
a lot of time, an understanding of scales, key signatures and quite a bit of music theory. only thing after that is the right instruments, the right recording software, the right guy behind the board, and money to have your tracks proffesionally mixed and mastered. lol detail is awesome....
This album will be worth ever penny knowing its going to somebody who is clearly very passionate about music and musicality. Can't wait to see what you put it towards!
I LOVE THIS ALBUM !!!!! FOR ONCE no guy screaming and killing the awesome guitar play and riffs, U guys are AWESOME !!!! Keep it up !!!! If u guys do decide to have a singer, please dont let him/her be a screamer, nothing worse !!!
Just when I thought prog-metal couldn't get anymore derivative, this guy comes...and blows me away. Fuck this is good. We need more people staying fresh like this.
This takes me back to high school, smoking weed out my window in the middle of the night jamming to this entire album. Still love it, thanks for the memories Modern Day Babylon
Lmao Some fear factory and white zombie was my time for those days, but love the comment and this band, and this entire album is still on every playlist I got.
Is this band still alive?
Literally same 🖤
@@didhasalim2686 not too sure fam
I'm with you there bro
Love how metal is moving towards instrumental tracks. fucking awesome
And they always seem to be getting better in a technical sense!
Technical isn't always better
+Stephen Jessop True, there is just something beautiful about the raw power of Pantera or Machine Head that cannot be improved on.
***** Exactly
+韓瑞克 i love instrumental music and is refreshing to hear it in metal
Are these grooves even legal?
Idk, man.....do we have laws for things that are Out of this world?

SICK INSTRUMENTAL ALBUM! THOUGHT IT WOULD BE BORING BUT THESE GUYS KNOW HOW TO FUCKING ROCK!
The riffing that begins at 4:20 is some of the very best riffing I've ever heard! PERIOD!!!
The whole CD had me travelling through the universe of my mind contemplating my own existence. I dig it.
Speechless. Why did I never fully give these guys a shot in the past? Really driving me to be more and more open minded as I get older. I feel so satisfied within.
yo waddup fam
ayyy
Big fan my dude!
inner satisfaction all the way. moving towards perfection.
Coma is soooo godly as well. Firemage pog?
Thaller Than Thall..
This entire album gives me eargasms.
Rightttt
I found a new way to meditate through the power of djent.
+Trevor Philips do you acutally meditate? I just started but i'm not that like involved yet is there any techniques you recommend? I also heard it can help shy people and introverts are there certain techniques in that?
You are quite a Djentleman, saw your comment but I can tell you personally that all these bands have one thing in common.
Techno pantheism, nanotechnology is becoming the mark of the beast.
Veil of maya, Maya in their language is the word used for evil which literally means illusion.
Born of Osiris obviously with their lyrics.
Trevor Philips Djentology!

It really was. Totally my favorite genre and I look forward to being an old geezer embarrassing my grandkids with my transcendent music.

So sick, fantastic job man, incredible production. You're a great composer!
thx a lot Matt , i really appericiate it !
The guitars have a really aggressive and crunchy sound, I love it!
this album makes me feel like im living life, this album is out of this world awesome, i sent this to a friend of mine, and thanked me on his knees for sending this to him, no joke

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOO THE FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK ASKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED
Looks like someone is having a rough day and wishing to get validation from offending people on the internet.
the beginning of "Travelers" gives me chills everytime. damn. album is a fucking masterpiece
Every god dam time
Fantastic work guys, this sounds amazing :D
HI

They played with THE ALGORITHM!?!?
My god i wish i could have seen that!!
You need to get these cd's on ebay, friends. Awesome stuff. Open up the portal so many more can hear & get your music! Inspiring!
Your song "Travelers" just got me through a rough day. keep it up! this whole album is musical genius incarnate
all the instruments are really clear in differentiate. i can't hear the drums and bass way better then before.
This has to be one of my favorite progressive metal albums of all time... very few albums get the perfect balance of beautiful melodies and heavy, crushing riffs... but this album just does. Insane piece of art
Some solid dent here. The part that sticks out to me most is the ambience. Absolutely amazing. I can tell you guys had a sound you were going for and fuckin nailed it.
djent*
I love how menacing that outro track is.
There are VERY FEW instrumental albums i can listen to forwards and back and enjoy every song...this is definitely one of them though
Travelers is just such a happy song it makes me think so deeply I love Travelers
When the first 8th-string open note rang in Differentiate, the tone of it made me go all Antonio Banderas GIF. My mouth literally watered.
This SHOULD have a million views.
This MUST have million views.
But this doesn't cuz it's awesome.
it almost does now
15k off a million ...still not there
It's now been achieved. 1M views.
The thing I love most about this is how it chugs yet still remains to be innovative and very technical. Beautiful artwork indeed and props to the guy who made this!
Still playing this album religiously after more than 7 years. Masterpiece
New bangers coming soon 🤫
@@ModernDayBabylon I am excited!
Thank God for RUclips. I probably would have never found this otherwise. Unbelievable level of craftsmanship. Truly masters of their craft.

Thanks a lot for creating this album man. It really helps me a lot listening to it while studying.
Fuck. This has been an excellent year for metal, the last three months alone are incredible. Good job, love it.
This album is fucking gorgeous... this whole thing takes my breath away.
I'm so happy you made Currency. When you uploaded the original Raptor test video, I couldn't stop jamming that tune.
great music, have goosebumps listening to it. True talents!
Absolutely D-fucking-SGUSTING!!! Purely vile! Makes my sick to my stomach in the best possible way! Look of pure disgust on my face the entire time this album is playing!

Masterful Jakub Zytecki does it again. That dude never writes a bad solo.
5:30 and 26:19 are my favourite moments on the entire album. There is so much emotion and melody that contrasts with the darkness of the majority of the album, it gives me goosebumps every time.
I'll throw 32:08 in with those as well.
You mean the whole thing?...
Damian Conde You have a point.
I know it's catchy and all but dat riff from 23:46 ... I could freak the fuck out (actually I am :D)
Oh my god, featuring Chris Storey. Big names, good job guys.
Dear GOD...thank you for letting me find this musical gem!
I am no guitarist. But I could only imagine how good it feels to just chug away to some djent like this.
Definitely best part of the album 22:51. SOO EPIC.
I just recieved my cd in the mail yesterday. Im listening to it for i think the 6th time now. Great music guys.
WHERE THE HELL HAS THIS BAND BEEN ALL MY LIFE?!?!?!?!?!?
I have to say... Travelers (song) sounds very much like Intervals' song Epiphany to a certain element (mainly in the first minute or so, then it definitely changes big time). Definitely not the same song, just similar in sound. Still great, and I will definitely be picking this album up. Beautiful composure and solid work.
Wow I feel like listening to a mix of Animals as leader and tesseract :D that's beautiful
DarkLael not a bad analogy, but AAL only from Joy Of Motion era, these songs are too structured for any other AAL album
Dude i am blown away. I just randomly clicked on your guys becasue of your name and i am speechless. Some of the best djent ive listened to. deffinatly one of my new favorite bands. keep it up and continue to expand your empire ;D
2019
I'm still listening to this dimensional album
Michael D. Wu - I’m here in July fam.
I will listen to this album music forever!
Damn!! I'm still listening right now!!!
Me too
2021 still listening 🤫
I dig the purple/pink color infusion you guys are adding to the prog scene.

I have no idea what you're talking about, but I like it.

oh no i was referring to the colors of the music more, but album colors work too.
This is one of the most Epic creations ever engineered by mankind.
Excellent riffage! Overall, eargasms for all.
Any vocalist speculations?
Thanks Greg Drop.
This shit is pretty damn tight. I listened to it a while ago, but it didn't stick then. Second time around, I'm feeling it pretty well
Great album. Just don't make the mistake of ordering their merchandise because it won't arrive.
This band is absolutely beautiful!!
this drummer is reallllyyyyy good
the riffs on Lost in Dreams ruptured my spine
Bigglesworthicus are you still recovering, bro-heem?
This is such a musical work of wisdom & art. Purely psychedelic. Breath taking. Thank you!
i listened to differentiate while differentiating. multivariate. heck yes
Nice album guys!
We need more instrumental music this time.
Whenever I get stuck on something I put on INFINITY and I somehow fix it. Some serious shit right there
Love that Cameron Gray artwork
Music for the Soul of a multi-dimensional being on the search for TRUTH......its just what it makes me feel.
Is that your body in the pic? Its a magnificent vessel
Yeah that is me, I focus on my health and take it pretty seriously. Funny thing is about 10 years ago I was almost 400lbs and totally out of shape.
I came to a turning point in my life and have not looked back since....I focused on Education, Exercise, nutrition and my unstoppable desire.

Jody Hughes none the less tis art
Jody Hughes where you get your DMT brah?
you guys went straight for my chrome's favourite list
The whole album is one goddamned masterpiece
Really like the way that bass drum sounds/cuts through
sounds like Meshuggah with out vocals , which is cool too !!
Mike Larry meshuggah sux >:( they're vocals suckkkkkkk
this sounds nothing like meshuggah
tons a appreciation for doing it instrumental and another ton of appreciation for making kick-ass music!
infinity is so beautiful
Definitely one of the tops...Going straight to the playlist!!!!!
I'm enjoying this album a lot.
You should sell the Midi drum maps for all the tracks on your website, those are great fun to mess around with. You could sell them as a pack or individually and have some extra income right there. I would buy all of them for sure.
the second song...
omg guys Lost in dreams solo is so genial, i buy now the digital, pls make more albums!
God damn, I love Infinity
Tomas, you're the great! Very talented and creative musician. I'm impressed. I had listening many times MDB's songs. Travelers is the most beautiful metal progressive album I ever listened. God bless MDB!
Great work! Tomasz you ROCK!
underrated guitarist, some of the best riffs in the modern game
this is probably some of the best Djent style music I've heard to date. I couldn't stop listening once I started very amazing. (Good Job)
I will buy all your posters, that artwork though :o
Listening to this sick record through epic snowstorms here in Canada.
Sick upload man. Yea, would be neat if you shared your patches
This is FREAKING RIDICULOUS! Will purchase this ASAP!
sure beats the s* out of what Ryan Seacrest plays on the disney channel :) "bbbut baby ... you make *me* crazy" lol, gawd what a bunch of crap we are subjected to listening to. The band in this vid scores ultimate cool points.
Thought I'd best have a listen since I'm seeing these guys with Skyharbor in a few weeks. Goddamn, wish I'd heard this sooner...
THIS WAS SO THALL
How does one (or, in this case; many) go into a room and write something like this album? I've never heard anything like it!
Incredible
a lot of time, an understanding of scales, key signatures and quite a bit of music theory. only thing after that is the right instruments, the right recording software, the right guy behind the board, and money to have your tracks proffesionally mixed and mastered. lol detail is awesome....
Extremely soft on the ears, hard on the neck!
This album will be worth ever penny knowing its going to somebody who is clearly very passionate about music and musicality. Can't wait to see what you put it towards!
Holy shit this is SICK, lovin these tunes!
i keep coming back
and it keeps sending me forward
LIstenning to this while doing physics is so stimulating B)
X.M. Caucase while doing metaphysics is even moreso :D
Holy shit this is fantastic. Random encounter on the RUclipss, thank you!
I LOVE THIS ALBUM !!!!!
FOR ONCE no guy screaming and killing the awesome guitar play and riffs, U guys are AWESOME !!!! Keep it up !!!! If u guys do decide to have a singer, please dont let him/her be a screamer, nothing worse !!!
Myles Kennedy could do the vocals
Just when I thought prog-metal couldn't get anymore derivative, this guy comes...and blows me away. Fuck this is good. We need more people staying fresh like this.
