Animals As Leaders - (Track Four - On Impulse)

[@rodneymyers562]

Best song on the album in my opinion

[@JoeyBrandani]

Totally the most talented people in the music industry

[@adamzandstra89]

Had to pleasure to play with them live with veil of maya many years ago! Even being in an opening band they all were amazing human beings with amazing music attached to them!!

Dude I envy you so much lmao. The absolute dream. I used to play a lot of shows in the 2010's (as a Bay Area session bassist for mostly local singer-songwriters spanning many genres, everything from Metal, to Pop, to Hip-Hop) and the biggest acts I opened for was for Shwayze and Collie Buddz, lol. My only claim to fame lol. Don't get me wrong, it is fun playing with Billboard 100 artists but I would trade it all in for Animals as Leaders in a HEARTBEAT.

[@t8music]

I love that simple melodic line at the end amidst the chaos. Beautifully written!

[@Thaligamathor]

I doubt i will ever love a song as much as this one. Just has everything a song needs. Makes me cry. Love you AAL!

[@mymusic6384]

I heard this song few years ago in the "even music bores me" stage, and it always gives me inspiration. I thought then that I would not find anything interesting... "On Impulse" was like waking up from lethargy. True awakening. Next song - CAFO. My favourite - Inamorata, a masterpiece.

[@Ruhma.]

new neural pathways

[@xBoN3sXx]

ok...so i just got into this band a few weeks ago...my friend showed me CAFO...Tosin became my new hero...and i aspire to play like him...and in those few weeks iv been into this band/artist...i have gotten so much better at guitar...im endlessly racking my brain to its extremes to create the kind of sound that this band makes...its just so raw and perfect...Tosin...if you read this...im gonna shake your hand some day and look at you as an equal

[@amare7430]

hows it going dude?

[@SmoothBlue34]

How good are you now

[@joe-mx7kv]

yeah bro how good are you now?

[@Hadri_ART]

Dude disapperead, tosin probably killed him bcs he bacame too good

[@NamelessSoulband]

@@Hadri_ART he was threatening to sit atop his throne he had to go.

[@ambercyn9395]

This one song.. this individual melt of personalit(ies) is a missed gem. Dont think we miss the beauty. Real is still alive. Disoriented, but looking for a home base. One Love

[@TheGringuish12]

The way that first section grabs you and refuses to let go, just elaborating with strings. My brain is estimulated and my emotions completely overwhelmed by that first minute. Masterpiece

[@PinyataSpirit]

wow im my opinion their best album, great melodies

[@marquisduhsade]

this is so beautiful

[@jacktumbleweed]

Finally a real high quality video for this song! So sexual.

[@851852093114208513]

xBoN3sXx - Don't play like him, play like you! We already have him; we don't need another him.

[@blueskythinking4745]

If his playing for you and everyone else than his not playing for the right reasons.

[@oblivionnerd]

tosin abasi, lenny breau, and carlos montoya. Nobody will beat them. on a side note I have always wanted to tell tosin abasi that carlos montoya was using the thumb technique he used in an infinite regression before victor wooten whom he thought pioneered it. Not trying to rub it in his face, I just want him to be inspired by carlos montoya which I know he would be. comparing tosin abasi with carlos montoya is like comparing people playing 2 different instruments... although they both play guitar. This is only brought up because of the thumb technique. Family friend lenny breau may be better than the both of them although it would be like comparing a third instruments yet he plays guitar too!

[@ambercyn9395]

Tosin loves or would love a challenge I bet. Testing his 8 string line of wonders could do nothing but draw love. Get to destroying theories yall! We got music to build

[@injusticeanywherethreatens265]

Nicely said! Rock on!

[@injusticeanywherethreatens265]

god had to set aside another day , hidden from us, just to craft the first minute and half.

[@cafecondiego3743]

I'm a melancholic since I met this band

[@benholmquist3589]

The ending is so good!!!!

[@sudharsanpaskaran]

Genius ! 👏

[@gurrrley4purrrley]

like the drum sequences.....

[@meherenow793]

4:58 on loop

[@sacredxgeometry]

You can totally hear the stuff Misha wrote for this track. I'm pretty sure that was also his solo, too!

[@Ruhma.]

he rly ties their songs together

[@mannyruiz1954]

In an alternate universe they'd be called King Crimson (Or Return To Forever).

[@TheRealCoder64]

I find the description fitting

[@davidmiller7881]

why does the melody at 2:50 sound so familiar?

[@hentai6582]

It reminds me of Bjork

[@stelliform3355]

at precisely 04:46 i could rip a door off its hinges

[@sondo1517]

They need a bass player live to sound as they do on record

[@zdancrk]

That's why they play 8 string guitars. They're playing melody, lead, and bass all at the same time.

[@mooseknuckle102]

❤❤😢

[@Ruhma.]

[@theshinken]

Sounds a bit like a "Mini-Racecar". Or Racecar is a "Super-On Impulse" xD

[@rustyshackleford9452]

Or All New Materials
