Mark Engles has one of the most distinctive guitar styles I've ever heard. His chord voicings and clean riffing are so creative.

Never heard this band before but I really liked this a lot.

But honestly, this is one of my fav songs on the album. The break where the guitarist is strumming the same chord and when the snare kicks in gets me every time. It’s a really strange beat going on with something going on with weird time. Appreciate the journey and moods it takes to get back to the chorus. Sometimes it’s easier to just keep moving on when writing and not even transition back to a previous hook. The song “same ol’ road” is probably the song they would have expected to be some sort of radio or single I would imagine. It’s a great song. I’d imagine you’d like that more. I do love sanzen, but I also love same ol road, of the room, triangle...and really the whole thing. Like you guys said it’s an album that benefits from a front to back listen with all the interlude songs in between. Can not believe I can’t get this on streaming services.

Recorded at none other than Skywalker Ranch.

I’ve been dying in anticipation for their next album! I freaked out when I first read they were working on a new album. Dino is a god damn beast!! Also love your channel, just found you by searching for symphony X! Love that band/album as well. Thanks for the content!

Such an epic album.

Glad to see yall back.

Love that you guys are featuring Dredg! I saw them open up for Incubus in 2001 and this album in particular accompanied me through college and after. I am now going to look for the vinyl. Thank you.

They're back together!! That's nice. Great reaction, guys!

where are the videos?

I love this album. These are old memories. Do a video for Triangle!

Artist: The Crackling Song: The Harm Album: Mary Magdalene I've been doing a folk show for a college radio station this past semester. I got songs for days.

El cielo was a great album. I miss this band.

Hey Guys! Good to see y’all and wanted to wish you and your families a very happy holiday and a great New Year!

Manny's back! Yeaaaaaaaa!

I've been checking out your other videos, and I'm thinking Circa Survive is next up! My personal favorite albums are On Letting Go and Juturna

El Cielo always makes me go WAY far off into astral slip space. I got my luggage packed and ready to ludicrous speed outta here!

And ok this song is great didn't know it before

Wait. You guys reference dredg plenty. How is it you don’t know this song? El cielo is an amazing album. Possibly my fav of theirs next to pariah. It’s the prog elements that make this album much more interesting to me than their others.

You should definitely check out Gojira, I recommend Flying Whales or Silvera for your first listen

Been binging your videos for the past couple of days and really love and appreciate what you folks do and the effort therein. For your consideration (in you’re already busy queue) please consider: Pantera- Domination (live in Moscow 1991) Black Sabbath - Children of the Sea Thanks so much and may Odin guide ye forthe

Really great videos guys, glad to see you're expanding your music listens in these videos 😊 may I suggest a reaction to "Long Road, No Turns" by Daughters. Really interesting stuff.

You guys should check out Sparks The Rescue, they're kind of an emoish punk band from Maine. No longer together but damn they made some good stuff. "Nurse, Nurse" "Saco Boys Have No Class" few other ones.

👍. Parts of it reminded me of early Coldplay (Parachute and Rush of Blood). Excellent guitar sounds.

Ok brother....here get this .. Yes ..Tales from topographic oceans. The album that follows Close to the edge.. different drummer ... The album only has 4 songs. Start from the top . Cheers. Abel.

Hey Guys! I just saw your reaction to Animal Collective and was wondering if your plan on doing anything by them soon? I would love to see your reaction to their older stuff! Feels : The Purple Bottle or Grass Campfire Songs : Doggy Here Comes the Indian" Hey Light or Slippi Or anything by them would still be great! Thank you!

Great one hope one day you'll get to my recommendation scardust- shards

periphery - reptile reaction!!!

Roswell’s Spell-Chevele

Manny, I hope you and the family are well. Maybe you can do some reactions now that things are ape shit crazy. You too are like divorcés that needed some space apart to get along better. We miss you buddy. Take care, Peace and Music

You guys should listen to Jamey Johnson’s “In Color”

Watch FKA Twigs: Cellophane. The songs great but if you watch the video with it. It’s crazy..

Listen to Home by FKA Twigs

Just listen to Kayasuma or Ignore Me XD They were storm back in the days

Please react to Morrissey - The World Is Full of Crashing Bores

Y'all should really react to Gemini Syndrome - Pleasure and Pain.

Please react to “Will They Blame Me If You Go Disappearing?” by Hail the Sun. Honestly, idc. React to anything by them (except for “Glass Half Empty” and “Mental Knife”). They’re amazing

You 2 react to music?that's original. Could you maybe react to dimension by creo?

YOOOO! Like the content, please react to the song Monolith, or Disarray by ERRA.

2.5, same as Manny. Good, but not a keeper. I think JP mentioned this band over the summer so I found this song and listened a few times but it didn't stick. MP, if you ever make it one state north of Kentucky let me know. We're just as nice but without the annoying accent! 😉

Manny's back and great seeing a video on this channel. I never heard of this band and I have to agree with Manny, song came across as bland and uninteresting. 2.5 sounds about right.

Don’t pretend like you know how to play drums.
