i just figured out that if you start from the r in the middle and and go to the other points and spell out the band name that it is possible to do it without crossing the same path twice!
@Tripsey128 ohhh and you'd love demetri martin's palindrome poem....he has 2 the most famous is his longest, but it's not really as funny as his first one...and you'd like weird al yankovic's song "bob"!
obvious reference the the band iwrestledabearonce which in my town of vitoria is well known i think they are a portland band with some people from over the west coast i had a friend who knew the old leader singer.. i think the old. and i think i had another mutual connection the the guitarist or something. anyway is this band from sweden? youtube says so but this website i saw said USA/Russia. anyway their line up is different since this was made i think i wonder if the member of this band listen to iwrestledabearonce
@HarlequinDisease You have a typo in the song name. It's called "Iwrestledapolarbeartwice". You have an extra d in wrestled. Please correct it! Thanks!
@SevenStringShredHead I guess it's not a name you usually come up with, so yeah I guess they were (for some reason) inspired by them. I tried to give the other guys a listen but, just no. lol
Bryant McNamara Really? I think they are brilliant, and I'm extremely picky with vocalists. He's articulate, and his lyrics are intelligent. And the singing parts don't sound like they're sung by a castrato, prepubescent teen.
Whoa, I went back and really enjoyed the vocals. I don't know what was up with me that day, but going back to hear everything I couldn't find a song that I didn't enjoy the vocals over. Thanks for commenting and bringing me back here! Hooray for someone on the internet being able to change their opinion?
Whoa, I can honestly say I did not expect that!! Glad you like them!! These guys are tied for my favourite band, Tool. Tema Mamay is the only drummer that can even compare to Danny Carey. Tool and RXYZYXR are the only bands where I listen, and have to listen to it a few hundred times before I even comprehend what the drummers are up to, let alone play it, lol. Every other band, (besides Porcupine Tree), I know exactly what the drummer is doing, and even what hand is hitting each beat. That polyrhythm in Polar Knights is insane, had to tab it out just to understand it. And the bassist is is really good too!
You should definitely check out Karnivool and Tigran Hamsyan if you're into polyrhythmic stuff (expect a LOT of 5 over 4 on his recent album Mockroot). As a drummer as well, I can say that they are some of the more mind bending bands that I've heard. Also, check out Haken.
glad I finally found this without vocals. I have the original "searching for vocalist demo"
all instrumental. sickness.
I live in Alaska. Have my whole life. This song/demo accurately sums up the daily experience in the life of the average Alaskan. Love it.
this song title made my day :D
i just figured out that if you start from the r in the middle and and go to the other points and spell out the band name that it is possible to do it without crossing the same path twice!
Math metal at its finest.
4:18 that solo riff is so Kenji Kawai-esque, I love it.
@thiswasplanned This was before the arrival of their vocalist, It's from their demo album so...yeah
@Pabbles123 iwabo brings a fury live that is matched by very few bands, they deserve a lot more respect than they are getting
AWESOME!!!!!!!! I WAS HEADBANGING MY WAY THROUGH THIS WHOLE SONG!
probabbly more than you ever will
@chiselhead73 Yes, because the song name is one word... with that mistake it did not show up in the search results...
youmaythinkthiscommentisirrelevantbutno
and before anyone gets all angry, this band is good too, i just think iwabo has something a bit more to it
This piece makes me so want to give up playing my guitar, especially the ending...
this is a musical response to Iwrestedabearonce, yep, its the name of band lol....
@CarniTHC In what way? Technically? No, Popularity yes. But really does it even matter?
@Tripsey128 ohhh and you'd love demetri martin's palindrome poem....he has 2 the most famous is his longest, but it's not really as funny as his first one...and you'd like weird al yankovic's song "bob"!
im guessing this song is sort of a counter against that band IWRESTLEDABEARONCE or something like that
@svenlk did i insult your favorite band fanboy? awwwww
obvious reference the the band iwrestledabearonce which in my town of vitoria is well known i think they are a portland band with some people from over the west coast i had a friend who knew the old leader singer.. i think the old. and i think i had another mutual connection the the guitarist or something. anyway is this band from sweden? youtube says so but this website i saw said USA/Russia. anyway their line up is different since this was made i think i wonder if the member of this band listen to iwrestledabearonce
@alienslistentoelecro yea it does sound like the cuckoo clocks of hell album.
Epic.
THIS SHIT IS TIGHT!!
great song
next big thing in djent after meshuggah
Rhooooo !!
@AETOGenny yeah, that might be it :p
@HarlequinDisease You have a typo in the song name. It's called "Iwrestledapolarbeartwice". You have an extra d in wrestled. Please correct it!
Thanks!
@Tripsey128 thank you captain obvious!
@vdjn55 There we go ;)
Damn
make a video for this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@ShrikeX4 vocals. lol
@solaralice yup. umad?
Why the actual fuck are people arguing over stupid shit in the comments?
Not bad kinda sounds like Buckethead.
@vdjn55 that seriously bothered you? lol
@CarniTHC no there not...
@EntrailsCutOpen LOL thats it. no they're not? LOL wow.
I think anyone with a sense of music would?
@SevenStringShredHead I guess it's not a name you usually come up with, so yeah I guess they were (for some reason) inspired by them. I tried to give the other guys a listen but, just no. lol
maybe the vocalist from Gorod would suit this band well.
I think it's making fun of them
@triviumftw u mad?
This would be amazing with some vocals.
It would, but the vocals that are currently over it don't sound very good to be unfortunately honest.
Bryant McNamara Really? I think they are brilliant, and I'm extremely picky with vocalists. He's articulate, and his lyrics are intelligent. And the singing parts don't sound like they're sung by a castrato, prepubescent teen.

lol ur damn right!
@DerFuhrerfurimmer
*trying to pronounce their name* : argssyxersharashar
They told me in an email that it's pronounced arksai`zaiksr. I'm guessing that means either ark-say-zayk-ser or ark-sigh-zighk-ser.
thanks man! Thats good to know!
:)
ilikethissongmorethanthebanditsmakingfunof
@vdjn55 hahaha ko'd in the 1st round.
@gunpowderjoe1 co za asy
it might be more of a dis to that band (polar + twice). iwabo kind of sucks. this is good.
@gunpowderjoe1 blocked.
Isn't This Nonzero?
was this song before or after that god awful band?
I think iwrestledabearonce is better than this song. Its got a little more freneticism and quirkiness.
iwab1 is still better
Damn
