I would like to agree, but compared to Petrucci, Bumblefoot got maybe half qualification. Don`t get me wrong! He is a real good player, but the song structures are much more simple, compared to Dream Theater and if you take a look at the concert, when they played Lines in the sand, Bumblefoot failed completely. The rest of the band is superb...
@@klauslohrer705 I kind of agree that petrucci is abetter guitar player than Bumblefeet, but at the same time I feel like Petrucci's new work is more of the same. He already showed us what he got.
Ron Thal is beyond being a master. He's a unique and rare specimen of a guitar player, an instant legend. As a player I can assure you that one does not simply cover Rom Thal.
I JUST SAW Jeff Soto (from Sons of Apollo) & Jason Bieler (from Saigon Kick) perform this live yesterday in Tampa at the Shark tank and it was awesome! It was a tiny venue of only about 35 people, which made it a truly unique experience. Talk about upfront and person! 😎 Not only is Jeff Sotos' singing a spiritual experience... but getting to experience it like that was on a whole other level! Jeff and Jason, if by any chance either of you see this, I just wanted to say thanks again that was amazing! Mike E. Land O' Lakes, FL
3:15 ... Bumblefoot made that fretless guitar weep, sing and scream. No limits to what he can do, and with emotion too, not just flash. Amazing player.
if you listen closely to each one of their songs you can hear influences from every band member's previous bands meaning each one of them really has something on the table and they sound really great!
I saw Sons of Apollo a week ago, Feb. 13th, in Carrboro, NC. Best $25 I've spent in months. Incredible live show! Catch them on their current tour -- you won't be disappointed.
Gabor Racz - Balog That's what the prices were. I just paid $30 apiece for 6 tickets to their NYC show May 18th, and I still think that is a great deal based on the quality of the show. I'm not sure how to interpret your post -- do you think $25 is high or a good deal?
I absolutely love SoA BS - Been following his work since the 80's and love him - Talas, Roth, Big, Niacin, Winery MP - Ever since I found DT, I have been fan - Theater, Mob, Winery, Live in NY, TransAtlantic JSJ - My favorite Malmsteen stuff is with Jeff on it - Yngwie, Talisman, SteelDragon DS - The best DT keyboardist they had - love his solo stuff too - Theater, Platypus, Planet X B - Well, don't know much about the bumble, but he holds his own quite well here. Long Live Sons of Apollo
Sokar 95 Rudess is a GOD along with Vitakij Kuprij. DS is a gr8 keyboar player,but i'm sorry, RUDESS is WAAAAAAYYYY BETTER than him. Don't b a moron comparing a guy with only one distortion n line with a guy who wrote n composed SFAM, TOT,Octavarium, ILLumination Theory, BC&SL, Astonishing, ADTOE e a lot of amazing solo albums. Get over haters😭😭😭😭😭

Ah, man, just beautiful. This was music Jeff was perfect to sing. Each of them brings it - Mike, Derek, Billy, and especially Bumblefoot (oddly, the one person in the group I didn't know/know of...super impressed by his skill). Can not wait to see them live...Milano, 24 guigno.
AZEITE!!! Letras á Tony Carreira,e canta como o Marco Paulo! Instrumentalmente chato como sempre,flat,sem alma,uma nulidade.Se fosse necessaria uma prova que o prog metal é azeite e está mais que morto,ora aqui estao estes cromos.
This is the best record of 2017 so far, every track is amazing, and I think I underestimated Bumblefoot. This guy is playing like a God, he is so good!!
Life long DT fan. Seen them with Kevin playing keys in Poughkeepsie NY. "The Chance" if there is anyone out there who knows that club... Watched Mike over play a whole lot of DT stuff and had the chance to meet him and the rest of the DT boys here in Phx AZ back in 2003. This is the best stuff Mike's been with since then. Also seen Talas at the Penny Arcade in Rochester NY, Good stuff right here folks!! Check out Black Utopia from Derek S. very good CD.....everyone and their brother on that CD!!!
Thank you guys for putting it all together and presenting us with such a flawless work. SOA has filled up a vacuum in the Progressive Metal scene and taken it over. All of you deserved it, amazing musicians and Album.
Man!!, Portnoy is the Midas King of Progresive Metal/Rock!!! All his bands are amazing. This guys rock...the album is a materpiece. Plus Ron and Sherinian are an amazing combo!!!
Absolutely love this band!! I, as a musician, especially appreciate the fact that the little details in the video were done. For instance, the fact that all the instruments actually had cords plugged into them! I know its not a live video, but some of these bands do these videos and make it look real until you see the guitar player just blowing up a solo with no cord in the jack. It makes me nuts!!!! Good job guys.
This singer sounds like John Bush vocalist of Armored Saint and Anthrax at one time. This tune is Awesome !! And vocals are fantastic as is this band !
lead singer has a critical voice in a interesting way but I love it because he can play around with it and explore his vocals to different songs. He is special and has the band to do so....
Where's this thinking coming from that Bumblefoot is a underrated & unknown, guitarist? Seriously, that makes no sense! Ron played in Gn'R 8 years, and still currently playing with Billy Sherwood (Yes), & Carl Palmer (ELP), in the band Asia. Also rocking in SOA with JSS,Sherinian,Sheehan,Portnoy. Every single musician I named here that Bumblefoot's jamming with are the some of the greatest players in music. That's alone speaks for itself of Ron's value in music. I mean not just any guitarist can call up Carl Palmer or Billy Sheehan, and say let's jam? C'mon Man! Who cares what some YTer critic said or doesn't mention him like they do EVH, or Hendrix? Critics opinions don't mean sh!t, it's the great musicians he's plays with that speak for Ron, that are honored to jam with him. That's all that really counts? ++Peace & Rock n' Roll++ \m/(>.
MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE . can not get enuff _( spelled wrong for a reason )_ keep playing as a band, bring more to the table .. guys are freakin awesome ..

Finally!! Love this band and I hear shades of dream theater which is cool and I love the whole band MUCH better than Mob... nothing against Mob but this band has the right feel for what you do Mike... have loved Jeff since Yngwie and Billy... (Duh) glad to see Derek have a band to call home... and same with Ron... NOW the world gets to see just how great he is as a guitarist and for those who are comparing SOA to dream theater... really... there is no need this is not a competition how about enjoying both bands... WELL done SOA you have a fan here looking forward to seeing you guys grow as a BAND. I really hope it's not a one an done band...
Really enjoyed that arrangement. It's a great song and the commitment from the band is clear to hear. Thank you so much and I look forward to hearing more.
Definitely not Billy's first supergroup he's been in. Remember Mr. Big Bulge? 👍💯🆘 With The shredder extraordinairy Paul Gilbert jamming "they're the ones who'll always be with you, deep inside you know they feel it too, lay it on a line of broken rules, just to be the one to be with you.... "hahaha👍💯😜
Wonderful video legends! That setting is so magical and epic. MP as always a boss on the kit. Bumblefoot, I'd like to meet you some day. Thanks for inspiring...
@@ruriktv You are completely right, i just listen to: "Divination #3 : Wah is this ?" that´s sick bro.. you are very original and have a tastefull technique... keep rocking man!
Ok I have to say something. This is way better than the current Dream Theater! Sound wise and musicality. Dont get me wrong. Dream theater is talented. But sons of Apollo might be getting my money’s worth. Good job guys!!! Keep it up
I mean DT has been on a downhill since Portnoy left 10 years ago. And if you're strict, things stopped being musical and became masturbatory shredding since Rudess arrived.
Francisco Gallardo Rudess is a God. Don't throw up shit through ur fingers dude. So do u rather Derek with that distortion all the time? Take a look at Rudess' works since TSFM until nowadays,don't pretender being deaf . I have 2 say that i didn't joy the last album at all,but all the albums since Mangini joined r pretty gr8 , with a few bad songs. U guys r only Portnoy widows crying n trying 2 please Portnoy's ego here through ur comments!
Francisco Gallardo Well I feel that Octavarium was amazing and possibly their most intriguing and sound-wise connected song (hard to explain, it's like every single second/note belongs just into this song and nowhere else), I really liked Black Clouds and SFAM is probably their best work over all but despite that I agree that they never quite reached their 90s level of compositioning again (and just to make sure: this wasn't primarly caused by Rudess, this wasn't primarly caused by Portnoy or Petrucci or and other member of Dream Theater. This was just a development which the whole band has undergone. That might have been or might have not been advantaged by Rudess entering the band). They used to really build atmosphere and were almost painting pictures with their music (so 'Images and Words' really was an ingenius choice of album title) by layering sometimes comepletely incoherent tracks on each other and creating one polyphonic and still pleasingly melodic masterpiece. I feel they lost that over the years and while I loved the Astonishing, I couldn't stand their self-titled record at all (I haven't heard Illumination Theory yet though, that one's still on the list and could even save that record. Don't know; got to see) Oh and Sons of Apollo is just freaking awesome. I think we can all agree on that.
Wasn't sold from what I knew of him on the early Yngwie stuff, but yeah. Just so primal and pure somehow. And hearing his speaking voice, he should get into voice acting. Seriously.
I didn't even know this band existed until tonight. What an awesome assembly of musicians! It's been a long time since I've bought an album but it looks to be that time again. Wow!
Funny seeing Bumblefoot channeling his Slash posture from GnR years and all the dramatic gesticulation from Soto - no doubt owing to his TSO background. Nice video, good track.
Jeff only did a something like 6-7 songs with TSO, I kinda doubt that limited time with them really accounts for anything, considering he's been singing for decades.
essa banda vai dar o q falar. competencia tem de sobra. veremos os proximos trabalhos. se continuarem assim , vao assumir a combalidade cena de rock progressivo no mundo. Som pesado mas muito bom.

Who is watching this awesome video during Covid-19? Stay safe everyone!
Covid-19 is not dangerous if you listen to metal.
John Smith... original name
Out of fashion now. Covid, that is. I was after recommended sound.
Portnoy definitely landed on his feet with these guys. They’re all the tops in their field of expertise. 👍😎♥️
And the best part: Without the irritating Labrie,s voice ruining everything.

Derek Sherinian is making rock keyboards cool again!
So true
I always chose Rudess over Derek, but this solo was a gamechanging killer solo to me. Awesome.
Dereks keys sound like keys should. Not Guitar-wannabes.
You mean daron malakian!

Extremely happy to see JSS reach a new ground of visibility in his carrer. He's a great frontman, with a fantastic carrer.
Fernando Santos he reminds me of Daron Malakian
Agree
He's amazing!
He really does deserve the exposure more. And this band is really firing on all cylinders now.
3:15 ... Bumblefoot made that fretless guitar weep, sing and scream. No limits to what he can do, and with emotion too, not just flash. Amazing player.
Fretless is an ocean but bumblefoot can't swim in oceans he can swim just in swimming pools 🪨
@@JasonNelly2000 Huh? This solo is perfect and his fretless playing is extremely nuanced.
The band is simply unbelievable! And the Jeff's vocals is magnificent 🙌! WOW
I had no idea Jeff was with Journey!?
Thank you for saving us from the present global music scenario
Yes, yes and YES!!!
Absolutely
Amen!!
Man Of course!
SOA is the real deal. The whole record is fantastic.
Eccentrics agreed
what is SOA?
Sons of Apollo!
well the $12 CD that i bought new sounds overdriven & distorted as if the recording engineer was a moron. but it does sound good here.
what kind of CD? i wanna have it
if you listen closely to each one of their songs you can hear influences from every band member's previous bands meaning each one of them really has something on the table and they sound really great!
Love it! It's awesome to hear Portnoy and Derek play together again. So many good tracks on this album.
Não tem como não sair música Boa de uma banda com esse time de músicos !!!!
eles estaram aqui no brasilia amigo. acredito que eu vou. parabens pelo reconhecimento
Yeah
Great Song!!! I love the build up then Heavy!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘🤘🎶😁
I just love this band! Jeff It is one of the best rock singers..
waiting for new album guys why arent you seem to be active anymore .. SOA
OMG this guitar solo is simply a masterpiece! Great track!
Masterful musicianship, very juicy arrangements and passionate vocal performance. Sons of Apollo mix of Hard'n Heavy/ Prog Metal is brilliant!

Verse 1]
Colorize the sadness, the fear is black and white
Tunnel of denial, looking for the light
The devil on my shoulder, the master of disguise
Can you hear him singing?
[Pre-Chorus]
Release me from the past, this tortured life I've sewn
I'm beaten down, I'm tired of being alone
I can hear the silence, screams into my soul
The truce is ringing
[Chorus]
Free me from this place I'm in
Mother, wash away my sins
'cause I am alive (I am alive)
Save me from this bleeding heart
Father, show me where to start
'cause I am alive
'cause I am alive
[Verse 2]
Bathed in contradiction, the lies just never end
Drowning from temptation; the lines, they don't pretend
The weight of broken wishes, will they ever mend?
This demon's still singing, yeah

Free me from this place I'm in
Mother, wash away my sins
'cause I am alive (I am alive)
Save me from this bleeding heart

Wash away the April rain
Dissolve the tears
The wounds, the pain
Jaded, I'm jaded
Kill the monkey in my veins
The sickness swimming in my brain
Bated, I'm bated
Faded, so faded
[Chorus]
Yeah, free me from this place I'm in

Save me from this bleeding heart

Bumblefoot is amazing, listen to his solo albums, "Hands" and "Normal" are masterpieces, and he is a great singer too
I went and checked out everything he's done after I saw the first Sons of Apollo video.
Really digging the post-grundgy sound of the intro! This band really knows how it’s done!
Sounds like soad
Maravilhoso. Feras demaisssss. Portnoy lendaaaa.
One of the best Guitar Solos i've ever heard! #fretless4theWin
This album is fantastic. This is where MP belongs and just excels. Love the sound of the kit, always quality engineering.

Bumblefoot is highly underrated as a musician.
You watch were going to see more fretless guitar playing. Hes badass
he is a master of unique melodies.. he plays the same time recording albums and live and is very characterful. kudos to ron, an unknown guitarist

Jesus Chris that solo was incredible. The tone, the command of the fretless, just facepunching.
It sounds so good and strong! The voice of JF Soto is awesome!
And he sung for TSO
Jeff has a fantastic range, I saw him front Journey and he was superb, he can also play all the instruments!

I’m happy that mike and Derrick are back again also love the album.
Só monstros. O som me lembra Mr. Big.
This is the best song of SOA... Bebblefoot is ossum! Everyone in this band are ossum
Крутая группа!
Over 100 years of experience in this band!!
A-W-E-S-O-M-E........ dat guitar solo... tasty
The bass is on... Sheehan!!
Ok I have to say something. This is way better than the current Dream Theater! Sound wise and musicality. Dont get me wrong. Dream theater is talented. But sons of Apollo might be getting my money’s worth. Good job guys!!! Keep it up
I mean DT has been on a downhill since Portnoy left 10 years ago. And if you're strict, things stopped being musical and became masturbatory shredding since Rudess arrived.
Francisco Gallardo musically with Rudess it’s relaxing
Yeah this clip really help a lot..
Francisco Gallardo Rudess is a God. Don't throw up shit through ur fingers dude. So do u rather Derek with that distortion all the time? Take a look at Rudess' works since TSFM until nowadays,don't pretender being deaf .
I have 2 say that i didn't joy the last album at all,but all the albums since Mangini joined r pretty gr8 , with a few bad songs.
U guys r only Portnoy widows crying n trying 2 please Portnoy's ego here through ur comments!
Francisco Gallardo Well I feel that Octavarium was amazing and possibly their most intriguing and sound-wise connected song (hard to explain, it's like every single second/note belongs just into this song and nowhere else), I really liked Black Clouds and SFAM is probably their best work over all but despite that I agree that they never quite reached their 90s level of compositioning again (and just to make sure: this wasn't primarly caused by Rudess, this wasn't primarly caused by Portnoy or Petrucci or and other member of Dream Theater. This was just a development which the whole band has undergone. That might have been or might have not been advantaged by Rudess entering the band). They used to really build atmosphere and were almost painting pictures with their music (so 'Images and Words' really was an ingenius choice of album title) by layering sometimes comepletely incoherent tracks on each other and creating one polyphonic and still pleasingly melodic masterpiece. I feel they lost that over the years and while I loved the Astonishing, I couldn't stand their self-titled record at all (I haven't heard Illumination Theory yet though, that one's still on the list and could even save that record. Don't know; got to see)
Oh and Sons of Apollo is just freaking awesome. I think we can all agree on that.
The more I listen to this band the more I like them! Awesome! This is definitely an all star cast of Kick Ass Characters!!
Jeff Scott Soto DOES NOT GET OLD!
No he doesn't. One of the best voices out there!
Wasn't sold from what I knew of him on the early Yngwie stuff, but yeah. Just so primal and pure somehow. And hearing his speaking voice, he should get into voice acting. Seriously.
What a stacked outfit !!! another SUPER GROUP is born . Love it !!!!!!
Bumblefoot, thanks for this solo.
Amazing song🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
i'm in awe of bumblefoot's craft, the guitar solo is beyond words
Literally just replayed it no less than 12 times. The rhythm track doesn't hurt either. haha. The gods smiled.
Sounds like a car trying to start.......and it never does
LOVE LOVE LOVE ! ! ! Can't wait for the new album and to see them again in concert.
I didn't even know this band existed until tonight. What an awesome assembly of musicians! It's been a long time since I've bought an album but it looks to be that time again. Wow!
Is good to see Portnoy playing with great singers.... in DT never could be
I have a good feeling that this will band will turn into something big. Keep it up guys!
Excelente banda.
this whole album has been blowing me away, and this song is the icing on the cake!!!
Funny seeing Bumblefoot channeling his Slash posture from GnR years and all the dramatic gesticulation from Soto - no doubt owing to his TSO background. Nice video, good track.
yeah bumble is standing there as if he's about to walk in some church on a wedding day to play a solo. or walk out of one.
To be fair, Slash posture comes from Jimmy page
lol you guys overthink this shit waaaay too much
Jeff only did a something like 6-7 songs with TSO, I kinda doubt that limited time with them really accounts for anything, considering he's been singing for decades.
Jeff toured with TSO from 2008 to 2014, so plenty of time to pick up on theatrics. :)
Can't wait for the next show here in Curitiba Brazil 🤘🤘
3:45 BUMBLEFOOT GENIUS!
God cried of happiness when He listened to this cosmic song!!!
Música muito boa ! Excelentes músicos .
