Agreed. Unfortunately that's common in a lot of bands as bassists are typically in the background and never really get a moment to shine. Bass solos are a rare breed now a days unless you actively seek out groups that do that sort of stuff.
@@goyara why are you listening to Polyphia if you like bass more than guitar, they are literally about innovating what the guitar can bring to music lol I love bass but there isn’t anything new going on with the bass it’s just good bass playing
@@arthur38379 Dude, the bassline of this song is just amazing, the perfect mix of simplicity and beauty, if I want to listen to some interesting guitar lines, I'll listen to songs from Animals as Leaders or Jason Richardson’s albums
@@goyara Polyphia is obviously a guitar intensive band do not sit here are try to tell me otherwise... again the bass is great but you can’t sit here and act like their main stick isn’t innovating guitar playing and making interesting melodies with guitar
@@mrchristian0457 me too, that’s why I commented here. I’ve toured nationally with music ensembles and I hate when people tell me I’m talented or my skills are a gift from god. No, I was absolutely terrible when I started. I had very little, if any natural talent. But I practiced hours every day for years.
that transition from dream to nightmare right at 2:53 gets me every time. i can't stop listening to this song. and that pinch harmonic! god, this band...
Somehow this still might be my favorite song. It's not the most technical or whatever, but its just perfect. I could listen to this for years on end without getting sick of it.
To the dancer for the video. Yoh are elegant. Thank you for your dedication to your art as well. The band is wonderful, but you made the video beautiful
Never heard someone make a pick sound so much like a slap in my life…. Being a bassist myself, this guy is opening my eyes to different sounds and techniques… as so many people have already stated, this group of amazing musicians is so underrated….willing to bet their time to dominate and shine will soon arrive … :cheers
Sharing the shit out of you guys to anyone who'll pay attention. 40 years old here, first act that has really turned my head as doing something both technically amazing but also so distinct and unique sounding in probably this century. Top marks.
I came here just to hear what kind of music they make. I was watching an review on an mp3 player. This guy had an album cover of this group on the screen of the mp3 player. I got curious. Great song I did a tumbs up.
Just imagine if they would stop after this, after not getting enough attention. Im proud of they posterior work and the most hated and NLND takes me to another "intelectual" levels yeah. But Nightmare, Ivory, Light, Euphoria. Renaissance will always be the Heart of Polyphia
It's amazing how much this band has changed it's persona from these days. People love to hate and they definetly capitalized on that while improving and honing the style they already had.
Because they don't like the song. I don't think it's that they think the people aren't talented. I don't really care for the song myself. It's OK. Nobody is ever wrong for not liking music. Nobody should ever tell someone what kind of music they should like.
@@johnslade7540 well really the only reason you should ever be disliking a video on TH-cam is if you genuinely don’t want others to see it, because it lessens support to the video on TH-cam and gets recommended less. So there was no point with interacting if they didn’t like it, they could’ve just left the video
Their best piece ever. It's just on a different level. The riffs fit so well together, and the tapping portion at 2:20 followed by that transition at 2:52 is just...ooof, perfect.
How have these guys NOT taken over the anime closing universe!!?!?! Jesus! The feelings this song brings! It reminds me of that moment you're in a beautifully vivid dream and realise it's just about to end. But, you don't want it to end. You don't want to leave that moment. It hurts because you're well aware that now that you know it's a dream it has to end. So, you savour the sadness. It takes like a lime. Makes your face crinkle in pain yet you can't help but look back at it and enjoy the memory. That is the "dream." The "nightmare" is the subconscious recognition that you most likely won't be able to remember it. That you'll leave that world and rejoin yours. No souvenirs, postcards or recollection of it all. It's the sad attempt you make at trying to fall asleep again to get back. But, you can't go back. You never go back. That world is lost, you've fallen from it. If you'd read all of this; then my hat's off to you. If you relate, well; hello friend! Here's to your world, cheers.
Just heard this band for the first time last Friday. Oh man Nightmare is the best. I can’t stop listening to this. I listen to this song 5-7 times a day. A musical masterpiece 😎🤘🤙
This is SICK! Y'all are Hella Sick.. and I'm sick to death that I have only recently discovered all this power and passion . Thank you for blessing my life.
I've been into fusion music since the beginning. THIS- is modern fusion and the future looks bright. If you were listening to Brand X, Holdsworth, Gong, Zappa, McLaughlin, RTF the last 45 years...then you just found a new home.
Im the guy running through the streets of Nashville in my truck with my radio maxed out blaring Polyphia on my way to work, from work, and on lunch. Seems like I'm constantly chasing people away from me. Lol. They must be country fans.
That bass fill is the entire song.
The 28 dislikes are from vocalists.
Its now 44
@@evelyncrawford8567 wow, rude
@@hiimz Hey it's been 3 more weeks and still at 44. Not bad for a 5-year-old song
I wish they had a vocalist but I still love polyphia
Hahaha! Quite likely! 😂
These guys treat the fretboard like a lover.
How come this be so underrated? This is pure injustice.
One of my favorite Polyphia tracks for sure if not my all time lol
The future of music is in good hands.
god hands
I thought the same thing!
The bassist is so underrated...
Agreed. Unfortunately that's common in a lot of bands as bassists are typically in the background and never really get a moment to shine. Bass solos are a rare breed now a days unless you actively seek out groups that do that sort of stuff.
You are lucky since in some Polyphia song, the bassist has his own line like in Crush or Nightmare song.
@@goyara why are you listening to Polyphia if you like bass more than guitar, they are literally about innovating what the guitar can bring to music lol I love bass but there isn’t anything new going on with the bass it’s just good bass playing

Just started getting into these guys after coming across "G.O.A.T."......jesus christ this is the definition of pure talent and muscianship
We’re on this journey together man. My mind is blown
The II 84 l
Not pure talent, they’ve been playing guitar for 17 years. Not pure talent, but hard work and dedication
@@thomasestling3400 What you said.
I personally dislike the word talent.

This deserves more attention!
on their main page has 1mil+
Tell your friends girl. I'll tell mine.
One of my favorite songs of all time lol a Rollercoaster of emotion
This song is so underrated. I think is one of the most magical and unique pieces they ever made.
that transition from dream to nightmare right at 2:53 gets me every time. i can't stop listening to this song. and that pinch harmonic! god, this band...
That part, is the reason I keep coming to this song man...
That part gives me goosebumps every. single. time!!!
pinch harmonic goes wrrrrrr
Still, one of the best overall songs I've heard. Their new single Neurotic is kind of a throwback to Renaissance, imo.
i love renaissance man, would actually listen to it over nlnd on most days lel(not to say i dislike nlnd, its a masterpiece in its own right)
Just wanted to let all of you know this song changed my life drastically for the better. A Massive Thank You to all involved.
Good to know.
You'll do better too bruh.👍🏻👍🏻
Well that’s amazing to hear! Been listening to these guys for almost a decade and they’ve beyond talented and seem like great dudes as well
The writer and director or this music video deserves so much credit. It's so artistic and perfect
Black swan vibes
best bassline and bassist in the WORLD!!!!!!!!!! so perfect the slaps the pauses not overpowering the simpleness. . absolutely perfect man
I love his timing, the placement of every note accommodates the drums perfectly and creates a beautiful rhythm for the guitars to ride.
Yeah, it is about as close to perfection as possible. The timing... damn
It blows my mind that one of my favorite songs from one of my favorite bands only has 100k views.
Added 600k more in the last year. Dudes are on the comeup.
1 million, Jan 2023
There's so much meaning behind this that people don't see. As a musician this made me cry.
Damn that’s a great melody and the sync is on point!
Why don't more people fw this band. There all excellent musicians
That_Damn_Martin420 so sad people only listen to trash these days and don’t listen to real music
@@justindonate4897 Whatever you say boomer
Just discovered them and I'm not even a fan of this genre. The like ratio speaks for itself though.
@@bad4hire so sad that you can't see the like ratio anymore
because garbage is closer and contagious
Im shocked this song only has 1.1 million views.
The fact that there's still only 190 dislikes after 7 years is a testament to how good Polyphia really is.
seems like i gonna have a good nightmare tonight
Easily one of the best young bands I have heard in years.
Listening to this after or before Amour is the best thing ever.
I’m glad somebody else caught on. Haha. Personally, I listen to it before Amour. It fits better.
that bass riff tho!
I'm now religious because there is no way they can make these song without having sold their souls. Phenomenal.
If you found this band. Sat on your couch and enjoyed the rythm. You found a masterpiece
Somehow this still might be my favorite song. It's not the most technical or whatever, but its just perfect. I could listen to this for years on end without getting sick of it.
To the dancer for the video.
Yoh are elegant. Thank you for your dedication to your art as well. The band is wonderful, but you made the video beautiful
This song gave me chills 5 times in only one play through. Im going to send this to everyone I know
Coming back to this video after 4 years now to say I still love this song to death and each note pulls at my heart strings every time.
The bass parts of this song are so good as well. An amazing early example of Clay's exceptional talent. Such a smart player.
Same

Gods… the music paired with that video… I feel things. Things that cannot be explained; only felt. I love polyphia.
It might seem crazy what I’m bout to say but THEY LITERALLY PLAY GOD
This one of the best songs they have ever produced keep up the amazing work Polyphia
Jesus so few views on such a classic polyphia song
these boys are just getting better and better at what they do. just.fucking.awesome.
So sad seeing so few likes for this great video and excellent music... I love it!!! MASTERS!!!
Erasmo Bernal This isn't the official video
It's amazing how much this band has changed it's persona from these days.

I just found your music and i think this one of my fav songs sofar thank you soo much
This was incredible . Why em I just finding out about this now !?????
They're just fucking incredible, all four of them. This is probably one of their best ensemble tracks, but my god... insane amounts of talent.
I love this song because it's so calming and BASS BOOST THIS TRUST ME IT'S SOO GOOD!!
I wanna know the 26 people that disliked this. Uncultured swine.
its number of people that realized had to play this song with 8 string
Because they don't like the song. I don't think it's that they think the people aren't talented. I don't really care for the song myself. It's OK. Nobody is ever wrong for not liking music. Nobody should ever tell someone what kind of music they should like.

Of all the guitar solos ever, this one is in my top 3
This is so good, I come back to this song everyday no cap

This song gave me an incurable case of stankface. So damned good.
I was just checking out some new music last night, and ran across these guys, now I'm a fan !!! So much talent !!!
Amazing drummer. All so great.

One of my favourite polyphia songs
Pure talent!! I cant get enough of this tune!
Epic riff. So nice music 👍🏻👍🏻
I think these guys have created a new and unique genre. I don't know what it's called, but it's SUPERLATIVE.
Hands down biggest best metal band of all time!
Definite resonance with this one. Spontaneous tears. Kudos to you x
Just heard this band for the first time last Friday. Oh man Nightmare is the best. I can’t stop listening to this. I listen to this song 5-7 times a day. A musical masterpiece 😎🤘🤙
I just can't help myself from repeating the whole section at 2:53 a couple times every time I listen to this song
I have been listening to Polyphia now for the last few years and for me this is my favourite. That one note at 3:10 is so satisfying...
This is SICK!
Y'all are Hella Sick..
and I'm sick to death that I have only recently discovered all this power and passion . Thank you for blessing my life.
This song is an absolute masterpiece.
After running through their whole catalog I still feel like this and Blood Moon (which needs to be turned into a full song) are my favorites.
Blood moon needs to be some epic 20 min long tune , can’t get enough of every second of it
This song is so underrated. Beautiful
Truly ethereal video...and ethereal playing
how does this video only have 100k views and less than 100 comments? pure injustice
cause they have the same exact video with 3 mill views just with (Official Music Video) added
masterpiece
I can't get this sound out of my head 🎵🎵🎵
Never enough volume with this song , never enough!
Amazing musicianship.
This is truly beautiful music.
Imagine being in a band and being so good you don’t even need a singer
I've been into fusion music since the beginning. THIS- is modern fusion and the future looks bright. If you were listening to Brand X, Holdsworth, Gong, Zappa, McLaughlin, RTF the last 45 years...then you just found a new home.
The intro puts me into tears. I cant describe it.
This song. It spoke to my soul .... without words, obviously. I absolutely love it. I'll be at the Sept 2 show
The beginning was absolutely amazing, the rest of the song is too of course. But still, the beginning was such a beautiful melody.
É a prova que a música não precisa vocalistas para nada. Muito bom. As notas fluem, contam uma história.
The melody in this song is intoxicating.
just love , such a great song
MY FAVORITE SONG‼️ ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Definitely, it's in the top 5 of my life’s soundtrack
Im the guy running through the streets of Nashville in my truck with my radio maxed out blaring Polyphia on my way to work, from work, and on lunch. Seems like I'm constantly chasing people away from me. Lol. They must be country fans.
One big thing about this playing is that it tests your dexterity and in a shorter way, I can't explain it
Why am i just now hearing this 🥴 best sounding cymbal kit I've ever heard ever 😵
Amazing, beautiful…inspiring
Thank you .
It's a sub from me. Been looking for new music treasures outside of my norm.
This was the fav version of Polyphia for me......😌 just love these guys
Omg 😱 I’m in LOVE 😻
favourite polyphia song
Still one of my favorite solos.
that harmonics alone enough to make me repeat this song
The gods of music are in awe.
Every song has at least one orgasmic moment. Some times its synygery, some times its a tasty lick on its own.. doesn't matter this band is amazing.
Cool walnut flat, the harmonics are pretty cool too
Excellent.
So talented 👏
I was turned on to these guys by a friend of mine. Damn, Now this is some really good music. Love their different style. Dope!
Definitely their most beautiful song.
I've never heard something so beautiful!!!
The beginning is my favorite part
