I just discovered this band today and was listening to this song on Spotify. I paused it and came to listen to it on RU-vid for two reasons 1) To see how many other people had the same thought, and 2) To see if it sounds even more like 'Dancers' when sped up. Heh
This song, and enter are my favourite VOLA songs, inmazes is just amazing, i love how it just builds up throughout the song, then you get hit with a super strong outro 4:10 - 7:30
I heard lightning strike I saw bodies moving I took up the fight into valleys glooming I have caught them all Every glimpse of failure Why do you still call and question my behaviour? I heard lightning strike I saw bodies moving I will move if my strings would start approving She must find another home But she won't leave a man of silence Hear these voices hear the cheers of choices There are colors following your kind Don't you dare forget the purple water shining You've been dressed in disaster and turned every brick that your head will combine Now why are you still trapped in mazes you designed?
When I sat down and tried to count this thing to figure out what on earth was even going on it took awhile. I am blown away by how you guys can even pull this off. Brilliant. Amazing!!!!
Vola, you've simply amazed me. I've been in a musical slump in the past year or so, where nothing is just giving me the same feeling anymore. I discovered your music and my passion has lit again, chills running down my spine through almost every song. Thank you for making amazing music.
same effect on me dudes and dudettes! No way back to genre music for a while, lol.. Those catchy, big, epic melodies getting me all the time, even now, when i can listen to their songs only in my head ... 4:16

It´s amazing how a lot of their songs punch you right in the gut in the first couple of minutes and then try to confort you near the end xD (Owls also does the same thing and it is just perfect!) Keep it up guys, love the band!
Looks like the secret recipe is take a cup of VOLA add a few spoons of Meshuggah, Tesseract & Pinkfloyd in the bowl Voila, you,ve got a very tasty cocktail. Inmazing song !!
The brilliance behind this track, let alone the whole band, is staggering. You guys have brought a style of progressive metal that is both melodic and original, and I love it. I can only hope you guys make it to the U.S. one day.
i cannot believe ive never heard this group before...i am moved to tears..its a such a marvelous confluence of djent, SW and other various prog metal influences
Every time I come back to this tune I play it about 15 times in a row. It's so good. The lyrics, the melody, the solo introducing the awesome mellow rhythm section. They lullabye keys in the outro. The chill drum beats. The wall of sound. Kudos.
4:16 "Hear these voices, hear the cheers of choices There are colors following your kind Don't you dare forget the purple water shining You've been dressed in disaster and turned every brick that your head will combine Now why are you still trapped in mazes you designed?" (although I *tend to* hear: don't you dare forget the purple ALSO shining " and "turned every brick that your HAND will combine" - coz i learned it to sing by ear, and now its too late to disassociate
I really feel like I missed the chance to listen to this for the past 4-5 years. My friend recommended it based on knowing I like Leprous and that is a damn good friend recommending a damn good band.
Omg.. I'm just blown away by each track! You guys are by far my new favorite. What an amazing job you guys do with your talents. Beautifully creative and unique. Truly one of a kind. VOLA!!!
The idea of the first riff was somehow clearly borrowed from meshuggah , but that does not counter the fact that this is the most complete (in a sense of mood and music) song I have ever heard.
Thank u guys for this beautiful music! Very impressive work. Got the album on bandcamp for free. Now i want a shirt for money:-) Hope to see u soon live in Hamburg or at the Euroblast in Cologne. Greets.
Not to argue or anything - I just discovered this band, but guys - familiarizing this band with other bands doesn't necessarily mean it's stolen work. It might actually be composed parallelly with the famous bands. My music is sometimes familiarized with bands I've never heard of, but very similar in the genre I end up being... It's just the ears inside guys :) Peace and metal
@@heavymetalrybakina that's the point of meshuggah lol. They are not interested in melody. They are interested in awesome rhythm cycles. The only time meshuggah has melody is when our lord and savior Fredrik thordendal takes an awesome guitar solo.
Went to their merch store and why can't they just put this album cover on like a t-shirt or hoodie because like that album cover is great and I'd buy that shirt
Hi John. We have it available as a sweatshirt here: www.volaband.com/merch The t-shirt version is sold out at the moment but we will make some more in the future:)
It's no use saying "sounds like [quotes famous band like meshuggah]" the only time I would write such a comment would be to promote an unknown artist/an artist from a different genre
