How is your downpicking so good? It's literally the best out of the all of the other players I've seen, even better than that of John Browne from Monuments. And your leads are also spot on... Literally you are one of the scariest guitar players I've ever seen. Your hands must be Skervesen as well; extreme precision and craftmanship on God's part for making those hands, lol.
True, this guy is definitely more centered around his technique on one string with downpicking. John Browne's technique is more expansive; he's able to downpick relatively quickly across multiple strings. I guess that's what you mean by killing the guitar on the spot.
+Hiren Saravana nah, i just mean the visuals: when you look at John Browne it looks like he hits the guitar with so much sheer force, he's trying to kill it - the others, not so much; skill-wise i'd say they are similar, the speed and precision are over-the-top
Definitely man, haha. Browne is ferocious with his guitars. It kind of has a different sound as well when you can hear that much attack, which is why I love Monuments a lot.
That Plini solo, oh my god. I'm at a loss for words here. The guy always knows what the music calls for. Those highs just sing! I must have replayed it like 20 times.
Through the fucking worlds is the infinity of this album, it is such a god damn masterpiece thank you so much for creating it. it's 100% ball tickling greatness guys sweet nonexistent baby jesus
Eargasms while listening are so intense that the intensity itself intensifies by the second through this fantastic music you have given to us mere mortals! Thank you groove gods!!!
Sounds good just doesn't have that "space oriented" feel that I loved so much on Travelers but still an amazing work of art. I've been convinced for the past 3 years that Djent is the future of music and with artists like you guys, Animals As Leaders, kindve Periphery (not so much anymore) and literally thousands of other acts at the forefront of this movement I still feel that way. Keep it up I'm a fan for life!!!
Dude. This is the philosopher's fucking stone. these grooves are so dreamy and tight. FUCK ME, TOM, you are a BOSS!! Always have been one of my biggest metal djent influences. You're the reason I bought my 8 string. Thank you for this fucking awesome music brother! mír
This album is a gym pumping, skin splitting, ima do this insane riff right here, dankerific, brutal riff machine monster. With an espresso shot thrown in there
I really am liking what I'm hearing.. And i really enjoy all of your alls' guitar play-throughs! Keep up the great work you! I would like to also ask... are you sponsored by anyone? I see you with a couple of different Skeverson guitars or however you spell it. Just wondering! Cheers!
Thanks =) I love this stuff, but please allow me to rephrase my question... Why is it not available through Apple Music? It's not listed as one of your albums... I did find it somehow, but when tried to play it just said it wasn't available in the US.
Apple Music... Search for you as an artist, notice there is only the Travellers and The Manipulation Theory albums. You can still 'buy' it of $9.99 in the iTunes store, but I can't just 'play' it from Apple Music.

bands be ft. Plini-ing everything these days
+macaron3141592653 i´m so glad plini does that in that quantity and quality!
+macaron3141592653 don't know why but I laughed my ass off with this comment hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha and indeed this is true, fortunately
because plini is king
+misfit mace Lol who the fuck is Plini ....... 😅
Drake ft. Plini
I still listen to this on a regular basis in 2022. Especially Through The Worlds. Amazing track. The pumping on this mix is really unique too.
MDB still has the tastiest grooves in the prog/instrumental djent genre IMO
Best djent I've ever heard. Hell, one of the best musical pieces I've ever heard.
Listen to vitalism
I know this is 2 years old, but listen to Wide Eyes, their album "Terraforming" is just awesome
@@captainsoarineagle ahh their album causa ❤️
@@lululombard ok mate
I think I listen to this ep in its entirety daily since September, it just never gets old.
cheers from the USA,
- a dedicated Modern Day Babylon fan.
Great piece of art bro !
I just love how in every djent band, no matter how heavy the riffs are, there's always a pretty ambient noise in the background. This album is killer🤘
jesus christ the fuckin GROOVES
UA-cam just randomly brought me here after my other song was over and that's the best move it's ever made.
if you wanna be a thug you gotta crank up the CHUG
+Photon Phazer Haha I like that.
Take my hand and djent with me.
This is my new catch phrase. Thank you.
Old school metalheads could never understand; "where are all the solos? This can't be a real band!!"
holy fuck i'm dying man thank you
This album.... FOREST FIRE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
8 strings of pure awesomeness!
oui

Go to around 1:01 in this video watch?v=hVB2nZ7t6EQ . I hope that changes your mind lol.
+Hiren Saravana It does seem impressive, but i just don't get the vibe that he's killing the guitar right on the spot.

Oh yes_
Water Drops is 4:20 in length.
that is all :)
#Blazeit
haha weed lmao so cool
I'm 4.20 in length as well. :(
awesome all Songs sounding f***ing brutal
+Adri b-w Brutally beautiful!
Wings is such an epic introduction to an awesome album 👍
That Plini solo, oh my god. I'm at a loss for words here. The guy always knows what the music calls for. Those highs just sing! I must have replayed it like 20 times.
Great EP !!!!
Pure, raw talent in place of sub-par lyrics, shoved down consumer's throats. MDB are Gods that show us intimacy with the music we wanted all along.
Groovy af.
The melodic parts in Illusion are just beautiful. Thank you for this.
I honestly thought travelers was ok, but this is friggin amazing.
Through the Worlds, wow! What an amazing way to end an EP!!
mind blown. the playthrough on water drops, AMAZING. easily one of the most impressive things I've ever seen.
I hope you make a return, I love your music sooo much!
Me too bud
Just bought both Travelers and The Ocean Atlas on iTunes. Glad you guys posted this on UA-cam, else I might've not come across this.
Through the fucking worlds is the infinity of this album, it is such a god damn masterpiece thank you so much for creating it. it's 100% ball tickling greatness guys sweet nonexistent baby jesus
Listened to this band before there ever was an EP from them. Loved every song that they ever made! VERY VERY talented band!!!
100 times better than Travelers (not that travelers was bad..)!! I am loving the layering and all the different textures!! Thumbs up!!!
I shit myself at the start when I thought my earhpones were breaking... on the plus side, this album is abosultely amazing!
Water drops is fckng owesome, indeed. Congratulations for the work.
Water drops > alll
100% agreed!
Eargasms while listening are so intense that the intensity itself intensifies by the second through this fantastic music you have given to us mere mortals! Thank you groove gods!!!
Bought this fantastic ep, was not disappointed.
You guys really know how to take people to another place!!
Gonna be on repeat for me for a long time
I love so much the art of the album and the music
With that intro I thought my headset was going out for a minute. Made me look. :(

Through the words is my favorite song off of the ep. and the part at 18:30 mmmmmmm oh lord its an unquenchable eargasm tbh
+RandomnessM Worlds*
