    “People aren’t meant to be this good at shit” is probably the most accurate description of these guys and I’m dying from it

      Idk another TH-cam reactor said "they're making love to this song," and honestly I feel like it's an equally accurate and appropriate reaction.

    Loved the song, the guitarists are insanely talented but I’ve gotta admit, I was mesmerized by the drummer! Holy hell that guy is good! Makes that drum tech story even more incredible.

    The skills to play these drums is one thing, imagine you are the drummer, and the guitarists send you this song, but just the guitar part. Now you have to create the drum part. Coming up with something so perfectly interesting and mixing well with the guitars...amazing job.

    I can't stop listening to this song. Polyphia has brought the genre to a new level, unique and modern, and an influence of many completely different genres. Incredible display of skills, and uplifting vibe.

    This song is crazy. I'm glad I've stopped playing guitar 15 years ago, so the feeling of inferiority did not hit me that hard when I've first heard this song.

    The measure of a song is by how long it lives in your head after you finished listening. WELL ... by that measure ... this song has evolved into an earworm that seems to want permanent residency. I wake up to the whistling melody and I hear clips and phrases of this song at different times during the day and it has even played as the soundtrack to dream sequences in my deepest REM sleep. Some people would be annoyed but I can't wait to feed the beast and hear the song again. I can't wait till the rest of the album is released.
