After YEARS of doing what they have been and doing it EFFING BRILLIANTLY, they pulled off still bringing it in this song and doing something fresh for them without ruining themselves. Life is Progression and they have grown as a band and deserve the FREEDOM to create what they enjoy! Great work brothers!
Idk bout that
I don't know about that either. Yeah you can't make the same shit over an over but to say they aren't ruining themselves idkkkk man. This isn't the PWD I know and love that's for damn sure.

Oh I agree I prefer OG Parkway Drive! Just saying for bringing something different and not just blow is big. I think this song has great elements tho and as ARTISTS I think they did a great job!
wouldnt call this progression bud.
Great song, when the little girl came in and went out with her dog, that bought a tear to the eye
This album has the potential to become one of my all time favorites
CANT WAIT FOR THE ALBUM!!!!! PARKWAY STILL BRING IT UP THE AUSSIES 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Parkway drive is extremely polished in all aspects. Their videos, their production, song structure, lyrics, even the way they plan tours. They are extremely professional and what I think most band should strive to be. I don't understand the hate or criticism they get. They're doing great things and they paved the way for many bands. I can't wait to hear the album.
Also, I always love your reactions and the way you guys go about it. 🤘🏻
Thank you!
I get Metallica, Pink Floyd n Rammstein vibes.... thoroughly enjoying it, new album will be interesting
LOL, i just finished the song and you uploaded this 13 seconds later HAHAHA
WooooHooo ON THE BALL TODAY MATES!!!
The music video dropped with my alarm to wake up than you guy dropped this video right when I parked at work! Like it was meant to be!!! ITS GONNA BE A GOOD DAY!!!
the fact that i get to listen to a new Parkway song on my birthday is amazing. one of the best "gifts" ever. also you guys give the best reviews on this site
Appreciate you!
I used to go and watch them as a teenager in the high school gym at Byron Bay many moons ago. I know exactly how you feel when you say you're so proud of how far they have come. ♥
Great song, it's right up there with Chronos for me. Just massively badass.🤘🤘🤘🤘
Even though I am one of those "Horizons" fanboys, who would kill for another Parkway album in that style (especially riffing-wise), I can respect what they do now and I still like it. Maybe not as much but I guess everybody has to admit that those "new" songs do work out great when being played live. Which is important when headlining arena stages and festivals.
5:12 is so, Another Brick in the Wall
Love this new one though! Winston will always be one of my favourite vocalists
if you listen closely, you can hear the whole of r/metalcore crying in the background of the song.
I heard that. Little pansies
This song is top notch on another, completely different level
Absolutely loved every second of this song haha killer reaction dudes!!
Great reaction! Loved them since day one! $10 PCYC gigs watching PWD & IKTPQ were everything!
I love this new stuff, it’s still heavy and it still catches your soul. To see the band evolve but not lose themselves is amazing, I’m so pumped for the new album. This song absolutely rips it apart, it’s a Parkway bomb in the best way… LETS GO 🔥🔥🤘🏻🤘🏻 and yes I’m a fan from the beginning so 🖕🏻#HATERS
Congrats for 60k subs
Thanks!
Massive ‘Hard Rock Hallelujah’ vibes from this. Winstons vocals and the guitar style is so very European hard rock. And I’m completely here for it!
I was definitely thinking the same thing about the ‘euro’ vibes 😂 I think they’ve transitioned well into this wider reaching sound though and this seems to be the evolution now made compete. r/metalcore will no doubt be in shambles.
Cool reaction gentleman and congratulations on hitting 60,000 subscribers.
Thank you!
I was excited when I saw this song show up on my YT. I look and you guys have already done a reaction for it. What a great song. In order to stay relevant, you have to be able to evolve and these guys prove time and time again they're up to the challenge.
Hyped for this next album! Love the stadium hard rock vibes and SOLOS!? Good stuff.
There's something about a couple of Aussie lads vibing to Parkway! Love ittttt boys
Am here for it. Reaction is top tier and their music is top tier.
I loved this song. Not just the song, the tone, the lyrics, and symbolism with the film clip. I've loved Parkway since Horizons, I got their entire discography, but I love their current stuff! Love Winston and the boys! As well as you boys Nate and Johnny! Cheers!
Very Holy Diver cover by Killswitch Engage on the guitar for me. Great song.
That’s what it was reminding me of! It was giving me vibes of something but I couldn’t place it. Also the video itself kind of reminds me of a lot of the Trivium videos
Glitch also sounds like a cover riff of cowboys from hell by Pantera. But glitch is also a good song
I love what Parkway is bringing so far!! Can't wait for the album!!
The chorus gives me massive sabaton vibes and honestly I'm all for it! There figuring out there new sound and it's going to take some time to truly capture it and I'm excited to see where it ends up
One of the best I've ever seen hands down!!
At 5:15 in your video, I found that gang vocals reminded me of Pink Floyd -Another Brick In The Wall.
Really enjoying Parkway Drive, a few of their songs have popped up in my Shuffle while I'm at work, looking forward to the new album!
that is the holy diver riff lol
Thought i was listening to Amon Amarth at first
I love that you got the Nordic theme too, I said the vocals had a tiny hint of a Lordi feel to it! Loving this
loved this. bottomline. i went into this knowing we are done with old parkway and it allowed me to enjoy this
The melody of the chorus is reminding me of Another Brick in The Wall but heavier. Or it's just me. Hehehe
i was thinking the same thing and i really like it
Damn you were fast af on this one ahaha love to see it
I love this song
The first riff coming in has a bit of a Holy Diver vibe, really cool, second riff in the verse also reminds me of something classic, I'm a fan of this direction as awesome as their old style was they do this super well too!
Reminds me of another brick in the wall
3:40 “oh nooo” 😂
Please tell me where you got that "you're gonna do great things" t-shirt, I love it!

Yknow, the vocals are actually verging on a similar style to Johan Hegg from Amon Amarth. Guttural, but still pretty easy to understand what he's saying.
my thoughts exactly
Jeff’s guitar solo in the desert = Slash guitar solo outside the church in November Rain 🤘🤘🤘
I think on balance, my favourite Parkway album probably is either Deep Blue or Atlas, because they're where my nostalgia lies, but every single album since has had at least one song I absolutely love (Wishing Wells) and several that I really enjoy and maybe one or two I'm a little less bothered about which for my money still makes them damn good albums!! This one so far feels like its going to hold to that form! Do I expect to find my new favourite Parkway song on it, not really, do I expect to be screaming along to most of the songs for years to come, absolutely!! Looking forward to this!
And to be honest, I think Parkway has kind of realized that.
It's like Refused on The Shape of Noise. They made what they felt was the best album they'd make and they quit for a LONG time.
But then they realized that, they could make new music that might find fans in a place in their lives where new songs might mean just as much as those older songs.
Parkway knows that fans like you, who were grabbed by those albums, won't find new favorites, but why try to make Atlas 2 if that chapter in their life is closed? They'll play some older songs live, for those fans that go to the concerts and the fans that just want to listen to the old albums still have them.
But if Parkway wants to move forward, they have to expand their audience. They've always pushed against the expected and even the walls of the genres they were put into. They did it with Horizons, they did it with Reverence, and they're doing it here.
It's probably crazy to think about where their sound could be in two albums time, but I think that this sound is reflective of where they are as people: dark, reflective, and contemplative but still optimistic enough to keep making music, to keep touring, and to reflect all of their thoughts and emotions and not just the relentlessly pissed off ones.
Atlas is and always will be my favourite album. It’s a metalcore masterpiece. Think what I’m missing from newer Parkway is the quicker tempo songs. In Blood was probably the only one on Revenance.
Thanks Gents, great review.
They are doing a smart move here, after wacken I think they realised where they need to go, they are setting themselves up to be the new next big band for festivals and world tours, someone needs to replace the likes of Metallica and iron maiden one day, that is these boys !
That won’t happen, as much as I would like that to happen…it won’t. Trivium is more likely to be the replacement for Metallica.
@@cradical2808 I see what you are saying, to be honest I feel like Parkway will over take them soon, but they are both very equal, either way why can't both of them be the next big thing, not like there is only one big band now !
@@EP-Bossman well you did say replace and Trivium is the bigger band. I like both so I don’t really care but my money is on trivium. I feel PWD are bored or stuck in a shit contract with the record label.
@@EP-Bossman why not both? I can fully see both PWD and Trivium comprising a 2/4 of a new Big 4. Not sure on the other 2 off the top of my head. But both have the capabilities to be among the next big headliner bands at festivals across the world.
@@RApollos107 I agree, as I said in my last comment, I think both can be in the big boys group, I just stated I think PWD might come out on top, but that's subject to my personal taste..
Parkway get better with age like a fine wine 🤘🏼
I just think people making music that they want to make and are passionate about is always going to be fucking 100000x better than a band that lives to make the same shit and keep the fans happy.
Nc reaction bro an this is amazing song...... 🤙🤙🤙
SEE YOU LADS IN THE PIT!🤘🏼 🙆♀️
Absolutely agree with you, it's about evolving, plus the old stuff is always there if you want to listen to it. Haters need to light up a j.
Shut the f up bro. This new shit is so bad, I don’t want five finger death punch I want parkway drive
Huge Eluveitie vibes with this track.
when the little girl reunites with her dog. fuuuuuck. heavy.
The production and visuals are reminding me very much of Trivium, who in my opinion, also has the certain Euro-feel. Its just so grand, what's not to love!
Ordered the new album and as well waiting for Atlas. Always listening to the singles but never got into them for some unknown reason. I gonna recover lost time starting with Atlas and going backwards.Aaaa Killing is comin too.
Arena metal. Australia deserves a band on this level.
Not the biggest Parkway fan but this was SICK
The beginning sounds like the metal version of game of thrones theme.
Breakdowns are great, but I love a good groovedown
Didn’t care for Glitch, but I really liked this one.
That first little part in the begging reminds me of something you'd hear in a lorna shore song
The guitar holding cadence is the best part
This song is better than glitch and I loved that song. I had already listened to it over 100 times while I was working out 3 hours.i had continued to put it on repeat. I have idea why ppl talking crap about parkway drive. NO, they are not the same but I still love this style of sound from them
Solid review - in agreement
Trivium vibes 💪
I am 100% a double kick, just caveman blast lover...but this is still amazing
Happy my fav reactors got it the second it dropped!! Enjoy this song a lot and think it’s better than Glitch. Love the scope and hell yes for the guitar solos! Only wish was that the breakdown was a littleee bit more booming but I still dug the heck out of it. Proud of the way my favorite band is transforming.
Parkway Drive and Electric Callboy albums drop on the same day.
Let that sink in.
Oh dear! You are right… that will be an awesome day
That's going to be a great day!!
@@msbalu430 that shall be a holy day lol
Don't hate musicians for changing. They are artists, and doing the same thing over and over doesnt inspire any artistic abilities. You can love the old stuff, and still appreciate the new stuff for what it is, even if it isn't to your tastes.
I'm loving the new stuff, can't wait for the new album.
Hahahaha amazing reaction
Chorus is basically Mastodon
Quite refreshing to see people open their minds en just enjoy the music. I like myself some metalcore as much as the next guy but music is just so much broader then limiting yourself to one genre. Which I feel is what parkway is trying to do even more with the new album. It is a lot more catchy and "poppy" then their old sound for sure, but you can't expect a band to keep churning out the same sound for decades. I enjoy the new songs alot
He just did an interview today about evolution of the band. He said he’d prefer not to trace his own footsteps in a circle. Obviously meaning he doesn’t wanna keep doing the same stuff. You’re absolutely correct
10 bucks says Luke’s and Ben’s scenes were shot in the same locations as some of the scenes in Lord of the rings.
Holy Diver...??
Cheers to the metal aussies 🖐🏻🇦🇺
It's a brilliant song still old parkway just dialled back a bit
Giving me Rammstein feels too. They're just out conquer Euro-Metal, absolutely!
Guys COLDRAIN NONNEGATIVE album is released and they also released official music video of the track name CUT ME u better check them out asap they have dropped the best album of the year totally insane🔥🔥🔥
It's giving Dethklok, loving it.
The rythmn of the song feels to me like a mix of Holy Diver from Dio and The Wall from Pink Floyd lol
Massive sound, thumping production, slow fist pumping riffage but I still just find it a bit dull. I don't hate it, I can appreciate it but it's just not for me anymore. Will definitely still go see them live.
Yeeeees boyzzz 🤙🤙
Power-Metalcore
I didn't like glitch too much but i really like this one (event tho i'm not the biggest fan of the chorus, but choruses with multiple voices is always a tough one for me). So excited for the album!!!
My heart races when there's metalcore on the ride. I have a few things from Parkway Drive, especially the older albums.
I listened to a lot in 2005, I remember that the first album I listened to was Killing with a Smile (blackout, Mutiny, romance is dead, Pandora) and the later Horizons that released in 2007 🤨 (carrion, Horizons)
But this album was very show, like Napalm is cool, Glitch, Darker still, Imperial Heretic and The greatest fear, in short, in general lines a genuinely good track.
Did you like Matheus, what is your perception about it? Guy came out a fucking track from the architects, it's worth checking out.
Reminds me of Pink Floyd's intro hahaha another break on the wall, even progressive guys have influence.
What a FUCK
Really hope you guys react to Time The Valuators new song Black Water!
Great video as always :) song is heavy af
🤘🤘🤘🤘
You should react to origin of escape or atlas by monuments if you want max level groves
I like this one way more than the first single, which left me kind of disappointed :) really great song, probably a banger live aswell :)
Bad omens nowhere to go
What about it?
@@nathandjohnny this song please check
chorus sounds like pink floyyd
Loved Glitch, hated this, really don't know what to expect with the album now
the same people would still complain if they stayed the same "ohhhh its the same thing over and over" do something different "waaaaaaaaa i want the same old thing on repeat across 7 albums" lol
My opinion only but I feel this album might be pretty heavy I feel like “darker still” is a reference for the hardcore fans calling them soft
when i try think of their HONEST genre I feeel nothing... They are ParkWayDrive thats it
Sounds like Hail to the king by avenged 🤔🤔
I'm getting rammstien vibes
im sorry if im being an asshole... and correct me if Johnny does the same aswell.. But i don't like how Nath unpauses the videos when it was Johnny who paused it... let him press play when he feels he is done with his feedback and thoughts!
