Official music video for Smartfriend, from Applause Of A Distant Crowd, which will be released on Oct 12th 2018.
Video directed by Craig Murray: / craigmurrayfilm
SMARTFRIEND
Eighty pounds of me have turned to cipher and debris in preparation of a future moving in.
I was not sufficient with a low nocturnal vision and resilient but retrograding skin.
Sure I am excited to be happily invited, though a wire has been gnawing like a mole.
This is not the lie I had expected to apply, when I was dragging my deformity down the hole.
I am fit for every stage of labor in the golden age of marrying technology and mind.
Thanks to the ambition of my physical edition I am taller than the man I left behind.
I have good intentions, but a few of my extensions are sharpening the ending of a pole.
This is not the lie I had expected to apply, when I was dragging my deformity down the hole.
This is what you made of me, a big mistake.
This is what you gave to me, another traitor.
A failed creator.

They need to be pushed, but unfortunately very few record companies want to promote good music. They have great commercial potential.

@iDoqz Год назад

the bass really growls!

@donniedarko444 Год назад

How many people knowing this would literally be ill to admit that it's a Line 6 tone... not only for the guitar but for the bass as well, I believe..???

There's so many things that make this song great: 1. That bass tone. 2. That guitar tone. 3. Those fucking riffs are insane. 4. Ghost notes, yum. 5. The lyrics. Gotta love this band.

@HamsterWheelGaming 6 лет назад

Ever since I heard Inmazes I've been in love with this band. I've been in a bit of a musical slump for so long, not sure where I had to turn to after hearing Animals as Leaders, The Contortionist, Between the Buried and Me, Native Construct and many more. VOLA has completely caught me off guard and it's been my favorite listen of 2018, can't wait to hear the album guys!

@lkwalden7 6 лет назад

Hamsterwheel Absolutely. I discovered their stuff last year, and they're one of my favorites. Haken is coming out with a new album too! It's going to be a good year.

I remember getting a random tip from a friend to check out this band Vola a couple of years ago, and listened to them on Spotify. They only had like 250 listeners on Spotify, and I remember telling myself that this group WILL be huge one day. They have come a long way since then, and this doesn't disappoint.

@father042 5 лет назад

I just love how tis band can go from beautiful soft and poppy tracks like Ghosts and vertigo into something so heavy yet melodic like this song and Whaler. VOLA are easily the best djent band behind Meshuggah in my opinion. They blow the competition out of the water.

@mattduke4359 3 года назад

Check out night verses especially their album called From the Gallery of Sleep

@iDoqz Год назад

I know this is unpopular but I would say VOLA is even better than Meshuggah because Meshuggah is missing out on the happy/pop/melodic elements that VOLA adds. I would listen to VOLA over Meshuggah, but Meshuggah is still great.

@chrishood6514 2 года назад

@ernestomuyalemoujalli5314 6 лет назад

long time ago bands forgot about making attractive videos, but this one has a lot of art and content, that without saying yet that this track really surprised me, the sound is very innovative, this band is unique between its genre, i didn't really expect this, i want to listen the entire album now and please guys, make a tour to US, it'd have great if you guys had joined to leprous and haken to their north american tour

@thegreatpoo2electricboogal318 6 лет назад

@rushzil2112 5 лет назад

Bent Knee is also incredible though, can't wait to see them with Leprous. Just discovered Vola tonight, would definitely be a great addition to the lineup or a great band to tour with Pain of Salvation.

@Thiago_Mamute 3 года назад

So guys, i'm from Brazil and i "discover" this awesome band on the last week... And i'm fall in love for your music. Everything is just awesome: the vocal melodies, the bass lines, the drum grooves, the keyboard arrangements, the guitar riffs, the Contemporary lyric themes... Each piece of each song fits perfectly in its proper places and provokes sensations that are difficult to describe. I hope that when things get back to normal with all that shit from COVID-19, you can go on a tour here in South America. Anyway, I wish you success and that Witness is as killer as AFDC. Brazilian hugs.
