I still have a Parkway Drive tattoo. I've not wanted to spend the money on a cover up, but like, it's starting to get embarrassing wearing this thing around.
Always sinking always..
What happened to the video
I agree with you, with every album since Deep Blue they have gotten more stadium rock/alternative metal oriented sound wise. Not my cup of tea, but thankfully there's plenty of other bands still releasing solid heavy music. I held onto the hope they'd surprise us with something super fast and heavy with each release, but now it's clearer than ever that won't happen.
they pretty are much sell outs at this point. I'll probably never see them live since they'll play alot of the radio songs. them along with Asking Alexandria will always be 80's cover bands to me till their career ends I guess.
Song rips to me. But atleast you don't sound like this other shitty reacter I saw..haha!
Man, i get why everyone who only listens to the heaviest shit around wouldn't like Parkway anymore. But this is just harsh, they've said multiple times that they are evolving from their mid-20's hate-fueled mind-set and into a more boundary pushing, emotion filled vibe. I think thats very mature and amazing of them. Glad they dont pay these comment sections any mind. They're doing what they love and pushing themselves to be more and more diverse. If you just want "bleghs" Parkway isnt your band. If you want meaning, feeling, emotion, vocal diversity, then you'll dig Parkway for life.
You can tell you dont even listen to the lyrics. They've spoken about how their mental health is in the gutter and this song points that out. You're honestly a prick. Must be why you have such a small channel.
Mike what’s up cuz?(: I be never been a fan of parkway drive
I was pretty disappointed, the vid was good but the song was awful. Love the honest review.
They sound soooo cheesy and generic…
In other words sounds like shit!🤮
This has no ffdp sound
Their evolution into a modern melodeth alternative metal band is now complete
Nailed it. This song and band is now complete and utter butt rock trash. There was a stretch when Parkway was the best metalcore band on the planet and no one was actually close. They now sound like… Skillet. This band is dead.
It absolutely pains me to say. It was straight generic radio butt heavy rock dog shit. Atlas is a record that made me get into more heavy music, I owe PD for that..but this is awful.
I've tried to like this because I love Parkway but I just can't get into it. That little poppy background riff they have going on sounds like Alien Ant Farm to me (except AAF was at least decent for their genre)
People really be hating too much
5:24 was my reaction too, heart was breaking
What is your problem with Reverence??? Wishing Wells, Absolute power, Shadow Boxing unreall tracks. They started when they where 17 they are in there 30's now so obviously they are going to change there sound try new stuff instead of doing the same old thing over and over. Love this new track. I give your review 0/10 Best band ever I stand by my fellow Australians
The reactions to this song, as well as reverence, is very interesting.
Seems like folk strictly listen to bands with the concept that if they’re not just doing super heavy stuff every single song, they’re not interested.
You had made up your mind before the song started. You heard the guitar tone, and immediately made your mind up.
Perfect example being The Devil Wears Pravda. Sacrifice and Watchtower were absolute bangers. It’s been very interesting seeing people blow a casket over Salt. God forbid they change it up.
It’s not even an opinionated statement too, people such as yourself have this tone that ‘arena metal’ is universally garbage. If that was true, they wouldn’t be selling out arenas 🤷🏻♂️
its sucks, they cant sound good, just sounds like rock and roll for kids, no talent
Appreciate the honest reaction
These comments are so fucking toxic, as an Aussie I love parkway drive even more. What I don’t understand is that if bands want to make a slight change to their sound, that people just start shitting on them immediately calling them “Trash”. Respect the opinions but firing shots at bands isn’t right. Even with other bands, they change, we just need to respect that.
Appreciate the honest reaction. Yours was very similar to mine upon first hearing. I have mad respect for the band and I love bands that evolve their sound and are willing to experiment, but I can’t help feeling as though this was very much phoned in. It’s very hollow and I think that’s what bothers me most. It has no soul. I don’t think their hearts are in it anymore. Bands can evolve with integrity and passion, but don’t think it’s the case here. No hate, just an opinion.
Same page man. . .
The fans coming to defend this band are fuckin nuts 😂 the old Parkway Drive is dead
I actually really liked Reverence. I appreciate that they progress a little bit with each album as to not get stale, despite everyone crying about Horizons and KWAS. Of course those albums were bomb, but several records later, you’d be sick of it. This song actually gets better after a few listens but I will say the build up for the “breakdown” was definitely long and the breakdown was more of a riffdown. To me, Deep Blue was about the perfect blend of everything, but again, the same thing over and over wouldn’t be great. Since this is their first new single, I’d also imagine this is going to be their new radio song, and the rest of the album could potentially be heavier.
new track sucks
Thanks for being honest, unlike the others I watched. That song didn't surprise me in the least bit, because it's the road they went down. that "breakdown" left a lot to be desired, as the entire song did. But, if they are making money and doing what they enjoy, then more power to them.
This is my favorite song right now.
The person with Asuna in the background has no right to call something cringe
Parkway Drive one of my favorite bands and i love this song, dont matter how "mainstream" they sound, they're still different compared to every other band
I enjoyed it. I don't think it's great in any way, but I still was headbanging pretty much the whole time. It's just stadium rock, and that's what their catering to nowadays is those live audiences, because this song will have that crowd bouncing. This kind of music just gets more attention nowadays than the old sound they had.
That breakdown hit hard but the build up made me want a bigger one…guess i wanted the guitar to have a different sound to complete the breakdown…wanted more of a crunch sound i guess idk but when it transitioned into a steady beat mid way thru the breakdown i really enjoyed that
This is the definition of a band selling out. I don't care what the die hard fans say. How does this band go from songs like Dead Man's Chest, Mutiny, Idols and Anchors, Karma, to this cheesey bullshit. Don't get me started on that ridiculously long build to a lame ass riffdown.
right, so the clear issue with your opinion is the fact that you have an azuna figurine in the background. so ofcourse your opinion is factually wrong.
jokes aside i get where youre comming from and its pretty f*cking clear that this album is gonna piss off alot of people. some more some less. i just think the breakdown was kinda weak in a way. i dont dislike the song, i think its a nice one personally, but they definitely went into a WAY different direction from all of the older albums. no explanation needed there. everyone has a right to form an opinion and mine is, that its good. in a different way than the older songs, but still good.
Man… you're just being a music snob.. probably cause you got picked on in high school. I did too.. but let's not hate on good music.
