    It's not easy to pull off an extended guitar solo and not make it boring. Jake does it superbly here, adding so much tension and drama to the track!

    I'm a sucker for Dannys drum fills too. This one really highlights his skill SUPER well. Their heavier epic releases like this one and Age of Machine are what I meditate too. I can put this music on repeat and be pulled into such a meditative state. I'm still waiting to hear a song I don't like. These guys are the most incredible musicians I've heard in ages. Thank you for always really listening to the various layers in their songs, Mike.

    Truthfully, any song you choose off this album will be a good one, you really can't go wrong! I love the staggering rhythm on this song for the chorus, and Josh's voice makes you feel like you're falling off a cliff, leading up to the guitar solo. I think your summary of the meaning is pretty accurate too, and possibly with a little bit of how much we've taken from the land because of greed too. Great video, Mike...I was afraid for a minute there that your head was gonna explode, hehehe.

    WOW! This was fun! I noticed that you smiled almost the entire way through this tune - so i know you were enjoying it. Greta said that this was a sort of cliffhanger, as they've already started writing songs for their next album. I love listening to this as I'm driving and it makes the time fly by. Waiting for your next reaction. 😎

  • @ringocrafter03
    @ringocrafter03 3 года назад +10

    Great reaction! This is definitely my favorite from the album. Might just be because I loved Black Flag Exposition so much, lol. Something you should DEFINITELY check out is their live version of "Broken Bells" that they just posted on their channel today. It's like a candlelight session and they even have a string orchestra playing along with them. I think it really shows how much they've matured as musicians.

    This is so damn epic. Love during the solo especially during the hammering portion how it slowly waves from ear to ear, so subtle but such an important part of the mixing by Greg Kurstin.

If people dont like it then they can watch something else. Thanks for your videos.

  • @clemthegoat8034

    A true masterpiece. It’s not like they haven’t made many more (especially on this album) but, it’s so unique and brings so many things together that they’ve never done. Like Josh mentioned live, it’s more sinister sounding for sure. Seems prog-rocky and I love that. It’s my favorite GVF song by a mile. That chord progression riff alone just gets me man 😂.

    There was an amazing live version of Trip the Light Fantastic uploaded this morning but its been taken down sometime during the day, hopefully it will be put back on soon so you can do a reaction. It was on the same set as the Jimmy Kimmel one so fingers crossed there will be more to come, it would be fantastic if they did one for every song off the album since they can't tour. I'd especially love to hear them do Broken Bells live.

    I am usually a studio version person but GVF have cured that for me - their live performances are just mesmerising. And call out to Danny who won best drummer of 2021. They are masters of their instruments and just continue to get better and better. The most exciting band around.

      I'm sorry you do not like my stopping Bobby. Every once in awhile I receive a comment like yours, but its rare and most people have given me positive feedback on my reaction style. I am not the kind of reactor who will just sit there, listen to a song and not say a word. I don't like doing all of my commentary at the end when things might fly out of my head and be forgotten by then. There are some reactors out there who will just sit there, listen to the song (maybe talk over the music the entire time, or maybe say nothing at all), and at the end just say "that was cool," and then end the video. I really would suggest if you want to hear the music all the way through, do not watch a reaction video, but rather listen to the actual track which has no interruptions, and support the band with a video view.
