Drummer is the happiest alive. just makes me smile

[@I-Need-Saving]

Jay postones from Tesseract vibes for sure lol.

[@Martindupie]

Mike is the man! Low key looks like the type of dude you would never guess is incredible at drums, but mans know how to hit beats 🙌🏼

[@aryasriram3294]

malyan goat

[@60fpsplanet]

Don't ask why Andy isn't big even with that S tiers vocals. He's busy saving the neighborhood

[@benhagan]

Hah😂

[@rogersaver2606]

🕷️🕸️

[@lukebailey52]

Your friendly neighbourhood Vocalist

[@johnathankozloff212]

Lmfao this needs to be one of those memes that get bigger than the band

[@d.j.casanova960]

Andy Parker, I mean Peter Cizek, ah fuck, you get it.

[@AustinPeters]

Loved producing this for you guys.

[@WernerErkelens]

Thank you for everything mate!!

[@Derangedteddy]

I'm not even fucking kidding Origin of Escape is my favorite metal song. Period. You guys fucking KILLED the production on this. The mix is 🤌🤌🤌

[@SaintTutter]

Andy's vocals are actually INSANE like i he sounds so fucking good. From a vocalist standpoint this is literally god tier. Jesus christ.

[@LilDeuceDeuce]

5:26 haha busting out the somersault what a legend

[@BlujusticeVR]

Saw that! Then right into the core drops. Loved that shit. I've never seen that before!!

[@evanmay8145]

what a gangster

[@MartinBergnerGuitar]

Andy is just THE man!

[@bryceoconnor3927]

I've only seen Dan Tompkins do that before lol

[@eczy]

3:32 Mixed voice powers activate!

[@Pallydyn]

HOW ARE YOU STILL GETTING SO MUCH BETTER EVERY TIME I HEAR YOU

[@rizkyalif19]

ANDY, THOSE VOCALS ARE UNREAL WTF 🤯

[@Kengoorooshka]

I love Monuments but I was never into them pre-Andy, and when I hear Andy sing the older stuff, it just feels so beautiful and natural. If Monuments were to redux their old stuff with Andy on vocals, it would be... Monumental. One can only hope.

[@Panda_Biscuits]

Andy you are a God Tier vocalist. Seriously how do you now pass out? Your ability and stamina are insane!

[@AestheticLov3]

I saw Andy with Makari about a week ago. I wasn't expecting them opening for Hail the Sun & Intervals and maaaaan, Andy is a goddamn god on vocals. In fact, he's the reason I'm starting vocal lessons. If I can get half that level of skill... ooof ;)

[@az1nn]

I must confess i loved Chris vocals on this tunes, but Andy made a INCREDIBLE job, so fun to watch!!!!!

[@SethDrums]

The happiest drummer I’ve ever seen!

[@phantomthiefzx]

Why does Degenerate sound so much better with you in it than the original version? 😮👏🏻

[@NathanielBTM]

0:28 Andy hit us with a "The Final Episode". also... Andy's Vocal Runs are just ridiculous... like how... too good.

[@VRSTYNYC]

This video made us miss that tour 😭 Monuments is one of the most fun group of guys to tour with and we miss them 😢

[@andycizek]

We miss you too fellas 💚 Let's do it again sometime.

[@GumboRyan]

Origin of escape was beautiful. Could we maybe get a re-recorded amanuensis?? 🙌

[@maxalaintwo3578]

We’d definitely get a rerecorded Gnosis before then

[@GumboRyan]

Double album, let’s goooo.

[@usaflagraybans]

Considering how the band thinks the entire mix of Amanuensis was bad, a re-recording might not be out of the realm of possibility.

[@kylestewart4444]

Monuments is so fucking good. I’ve been following Andy’s channel for several years and this is the band he was always meant to have. Can’t wait for the next record. You guys are killing it.

[@laurenbabic]

sounds heckin RAD

[@landmine55]

Monuments has finally reached their final form and I am absolutely stoked for them. They deserve to become one of the greats.

[@TobyDillman]

Holy shit, I had NO IDEA he was capable of this. I saw his Chucky vs The Giant Tortoise video years ago and now I hear him doing this?! These guys sounded absolutely amazing. Not just the vocals, which are immaculate, but the rest of the band completely crushed it too.

[@6ER7]

Andy's vocals in live is unreal!

[@veenoir1991]

Man I would love to hear Andy do more gnosis stuff. I really need to go to a show lol

[@landmine55]

I highly recommend it, andy kills it on the gnosis stuff! Never seeing them before Andy joined but familiar with the material it was godly.

[@joev.8543]

I feel validated by coming here and seeing I'm not the only one that feels this dude is absolutely top of the game rn.

[@davud2789]

Man this totally blows the original versions away

[@shipplord9660]

Andy is in the form of his life, absolutely incredible performance. Long live Monu

[@connormatthew1928]

Ive watched this so many times, goddamn you guys are sick👊

[@C_GOODIES]

Can we get more barrel rolls like 5:26

[@ddevil4980]

Can't say I've ever seen a drummer smile that much. 😂 Most of the time, we're making weird faces.

[@spineless_]

Absolutely unreal vocals. You do the Chris Barretto and Matt Rose songs justice 🔥

[@SlashMitchell1994]

Vocals on another level ❤ wow

[@Haduj-the-Lion]
