Crossovers that will cure corona virus

Give me my karnivool album already. This song was the best thing I have ever heard btw

Lyrics: TRY You could just Kill all of these things you’ve been thinking They’re the reason your tied up in knots With a part of you digging answers And a part of you lost in the dark Don’t tell me that things ain’t that simple There’s a line we all got to cross I hope that you spend all your fortune Next time you won’t get the chance You’re still waiting for the world to brake And I’m already gone My mistake was handing you the kingdom Without cause I’ve been here a thousand times Searched every door Hoping there’s path that leads To what was before The illusion still evades If you could justify The sense or the reason Try to explain the unknown And hope that things are created In the image of us all I’ve been here a thousand times Searched every door Hoping there’s path that leads To what was before The illusion still evades me It changes I’m still in search of something more Hopelessly it consumes me I’ve tried i can’t ignore it Who was i all before this It don’t matter no more If you could justify The sense or the reason Try to explain the unknown And hope that things are created In the image of us all I’ve been here a thousand times Searched every door Hoping there’s path that leads To what was before The illusion still evades I’ve been here before Searching through every door Forever, the illusion still evades The illusion still evades me

This is insane. If these guys continued as a project, it would be easily one of my all-time favorites.

Wonderful in every way.

Damn, both of them complemented each other's styles really well. It didn't seem like Ian was singing on a monuments song, nor did it seem like Olly was playing in a Karnivool song. This was so good. We need more.

I'm gonna need a whole album with this line up

Ian Kenny’s vocals just fit prog metal

chickenlegpiece 🔥🔥🔥

Making 6/8 sound like 17/16 is DIFFICULT! But they definitely achieved it!!!

Dude this is so sick!

My life just made little more sense..thanks for the collab both of you

This is exceptional! The guitar parts are so unconventionally beautiful and unique yet Ian Kenny somehow finds the same perfect melody and vocal phrasing to make it sound almost straightforward. Pure ear-candy yet layered and complex. I don’t know another vocalist on the planet that could have made the progressive arrangement underneath work so well as a vocal song. Olly, more work in the future with Ian please!

Imagine: Vocals - Ian Kenny Rhythm Guitar - Olly Steele 2nd Rhythm Guitar - Will Swan Lead Guitar - Wes Hauch Bass Guitar - Amos Williams Drums - Donovan Melero (2nd Vocalist) Either this would be the best band or nothing would get done :)))

The song flows perfectly, guitarwork is beyond amazing, drums are groovy af and Ian killed it on this track. Thank you Olly for this banger ✌️

Wow, so nice to hear Ian’s voice again. Incredible track!

Now added to bandcamp to purchase/stream! ollysteele.bandcamp.com/track/try-feat-ian-kenny

Not even a month into 2021 and we already have song of the year 😍😍

Match made in heaven, So sick !!

Beautiful stuff mate. That spank 🔥

This has everything. AND THE MIX IS INSANE.

Holy Moly. That sound is insane. Never heard Ians voice in a sound that brilliant und crisp, very awesome. I'm a big Karnivool fan and I really hope they finish their album before the next tool album drops ;) much love from Germany.

I come here everyday just to hear "Don’t tell me that things ain’t that simple There’s a line we all got to cross I hope that you spend all your fortune Next time you won’t get the chance"

I can't stop listening. Definitely need more of this.

Steele's licks with Kenny's vocals is a perfect match. This makes me happy.

But Damn Olly’s lead playing is sick too .

What an EPIC collab.Themata album vibes from Ian's vocals. Mike slaying as per usual. Epic track

Absolutely stunning

Drop the banger olly JUST DO IT

Mate, this song just vanished from Apple Music. Wouldn’t mind but it was on my mental health playlist and I need that $h!t to survive. Can you please put it back? All the best, RH

Only just found this!!! So happy I did!!! 😃💗🎵🤘

Legit gonna set an alarm for 3 am

I like this! single coil sounds all day :)

Ian's voice is such a comfort.

Ian killed it, but that isn’t really surprising. Great guitar work, Olly :)

Listen 154. Finally got all the patterns figured out. Listen 326. Great now I'm crying on my way to work guys.

Love Ian's vocals as much as the next guy where's the love for James Leach? What a bassist!

Man this is awesome! So well written and performed. Great hearing Kenny's voice again for the first time in what feels like forever! Would love an album from you two!

WTF, so good! This riffs are not of this world, what a mindblowing song

My only complaint is that Olly hasn't released a full solo album yet. I need more of this!

This is fucking amazing. If i can't get new Karnivool then this will definitely do. Damn this is so good.

Broo I got bamboozled good, in spotify doesn't say this is a featuring. I was like fuck is this Karnivool? Then I saw it was Oly and I started losing my shit, thought he actually sounded like Ian Kenny 😭😂

I have Olly on repeat these days! I'm itching for a female vocalist to work with Mr. Steele.

I just found this song now, beautiful.

Rhythmic phrasing like Tigran Hamasyan. I can totally picture him grooving to this behind a piano. Kenney ties it together so well too

AMAZING!!!!!!!!! Olly would be a great addition to Karnivool

wait... IAN KELLY? hooly fucking shit Olly. You guys knecked it out of the park

Sounds awesome man! Love the artwork too.

Reminds me to be myself and have no worry about the surrounding, makes me feel free, without worldly influence... Weird hey?

Omg this is the perfect combo ! Ian's style fits so much to yours Olly !

I don't know why?? But I love this perfomance

If they formed a permanent band with all the members, I’d always listen to them.

Wow Ian's voice fits really well with the tune ! Love the more twangy sound you've got on this too 🔥

this fills me with a deep, hopeful melancholy and I love it. Moar plz.

Karnivool x Monuments 😍 going to be on repeat for days

First listen: Immedietly one of my Favorites ever! Please bring us more!

I can already see Rabea playing this on repeat. Such an immense combo

Can we please have this released on a 7" vinyl? I love this song to the ends of the earth and have since release

I wanna steal that beautiful twangy saucy spicy zesty lil' sour lil' sweet lead tone at 2:10 so fucking baaaaaaaaaaaaad

My mind is blown as if I've just listened to a new Karnivool song. I'm just dumbfounded here.

This song is pure pleasure! So happy to see some of my favourite musicians to be working together!

not only a sick chord progression but a real sick beat to pair. AND sick vocals? unbelievably great stuff

PLEASEEEEEE make an album just like this!!!!! Will definitely buy it

One of my tracks of the week for 1/22/21-1/28/21 💙

When’s the album dropping olly

Olly has mastered the right balance of interesting rhythms and beautiful melodies. ❤

I want an album like this with clean vocals throughout. Syluch an underated sound

Ollys knack for melody is really refreshing and eye opening. Don't sleep on this dude he is changing the guitar 🎯💯🔥😍😍😍😍

My disappointment lies within the fact that I could have been listening to this masterpiece three months ago. So good, on every level possible.

Imagine Monuments and Karnivool do a collab... The prog gods would descend from above and say "thank you".

Karnivooments

Simply amazing collaboration. Ian´s vocal really fit Olly´s riffs. Give me some more please.

Wow. Day made🤗 please..make an album and take my money!!

Dude put this shit up on Bandcamp so we can pay you!!

I've never felt so final holy fuck. also that little guitar passage before the solo is super tingly.

Please sir, can we have some more. Beautiful and perfect

This is sick. I've always loved Malyan on the drums

Holy fuck this is good dude. Hits in all the right ways, can't wait to hear more.

Cannot stop listening! Doing my part on the view count.

Ohh yeaaa!!! This is it....

I can't no longer listen to this on Spotify :(

Monuvool

Olly's tone on that solo is just so amazing, improving every day ❤️

Does anyone know whats the guitar effect used at 2:11? Sounds like a tremolo with heavy chorus

This is sick. Such a forward momentum song if that makes sense.

Perfecto, brothers ~ 🌹

what's the tune of this ? amazing song!!

The chorus is so fucking catchy

My god the drums POP. Such a banger

This is ace 👌

Absolutely incredible

I couldn't love this more

I AIN’T TUNING SH!T

reminds me of satyr

This is soo good. Didn't expect that kind of riffage from Olly. Really matches the Karnivool Style

haven't heard the name Olly Steele since 09 monuments i hope u have been good my guy

Is there a non vocals version to this song?

along with great guitar, featuring ian kenny was a stroke of genius
