[@JamesKnoerl]

My dude! You are a one of one. Thanks for the support! :D

[@StrateleStudios]

Awwww man, you made my day! Thanks James! ☺️

[@alienkinkvr]

Aviations is unparalleled, man. They deserve the world's attention for these compositions with equally stunning execution. God. Damn.

[@narutobroken]

Thank you for doing this song, been waiting for someone to do a reaction to it!

[@StrateleStudios]

Hope you enjoy it! 😊

[@davidciscwhite8994]

Wow. These boyz..never disappoint I play prog..I love prog.. Their music is. So complex..the variety of the patterns. Time sigs.. And the length of the tunes. And very listenable. Colorful.. And Beautiful....

[@StrateleStudios]

Absolutely!

[@jeannettesimpson9778]

I just checked out more of their work. "Coma" is amazing. I might get slain for this, but they remind me of Polish prog band Riverside, just a bit heavier.

[@StrateleStudios]

Another great tune!

[@jeffsouza4213]

Everything is so clean and precise, yet technical and emotional! Love it!

[@StrateleStudios]

Yes!!!

[@scottcostantini6501]

This is what I love about this channel... I have never heard of these guys, and they just blew me away. What a tight band! Although they are all insane musicians, I found the drummer to be so unique. There is no way I could play like that, but there are little tidbits that I can't wait to try to learn. Looks like you have once given me another rabbit hole to go down. Your appreciation for all sorts of music is apparent within the emotions in your voice that you share with us in your reactions. Thank you!

[@wilksy2008]

Yo dude! Aviations are fantastic, if you wanna hear an absolute certified BANGER from them, I’d 100% recommend ‘Outliers’ without a second thought! 🤩💖 This is one of my favourite bands and comments like this make my day! 🥹 Glad you like them! 👌🏼

[@wilksy2008]

Also, Jeff actually interviewed a few of the band members on here in recent…. I wanna say weeks (it’s probably about 2 months or so now…!), and they open up about their writing process. It’s very insightful! ✨

[@narutobroken]

Oh man you are gonna love Aviations other stuff

[@StrateleStudios]

Oh yea man these guys are brilliant. So love their music and it was a blast getting to interview them and ask them whatever I wanted. Check out the interview O did with them if you haven’t. The are really humble on top of it all.

[@str8edgbmxr641]

Aviations has completely redefined the beauty of music for me. Not just the playing, but the orchestration, use of musical devices, use of texture, space, dynamic...They are one of three bands who did this for me over the past 45 years. Rush and Fates Warning are the other two. Unparalleled for sure!!!

[@chaseorosco9017]

Hearing that songs like this and Coma took so long to finish is such an amazing thing to hear. That means these guys pour their hearts and souls in to make every song perfect. I didn’t think they could top Coma. They just did.

[@jeffsouza4213]

New heights! These guys are so good it makes me want to be better!

[@StrateleStudios]

Me too!

[@dbcanada]

Thanks, Jeff. Dreamy and intense!

[@StrateleStudios]

So glad you liked it!

[@Gngr_sNap]

2023 continues to be a phenomenal year for metal. This band is the ultimate cherry on top. SO excited for this album on 9/1! 🙌

[@StrateleStudios]

I already pre-ordered the beauty vinyl double LP!

[@toniedvardsen8169]

Always a pleasure, watching your emotional reactions to one of the two greatest "new" bands out there. ( Arch Echo being the other) 😁😁😁

[@StrateleStudios]

Yes, Arch Echo as well. And these guys are all so young which also blows my minds. The compositions are absolutely brilliant.

[@cr0wguitar]

My favourite thing about watching your reacts is seeing you react with the same energy to the same sections. In a strange way it validates my enthusiasm for prog - nice to know there's others out there that can appreciate the level of detail that goes into writing songs like this. This was an instant favourite for me when the album dropped and I must have missed this react in my subscription feed. Loved it, keep these coming!

[@StrateleStudios]

[@TTkingsman]

Thank you Jeff! For the great great reaction and analysis of this just superb new song by Aviations. It's a treat to see someone enjoy this music as much as myself. I thought after outliers and coma that those are the peak songs by them but what the heck...this is atleast at the same level as those two. But for different reasons. I think their writing and arrangements in these songs are evolving just the right direction. Just can't wait for the rest of the songs of the upcoming album. Incredible band indeed.

[@wilksy2008]

16:29 Niiiiice analogy dude, wouldn’t have thought of that - that’s some top-tier compliment and acknowledgement!! 🥹🥹🥹

[@StrateleStudios]

Thank you bro!

[@VoidMaker407]

Such a great song and react

[@Bawls-]

oh you quick quick my guy. Great reaction

[@StrateleStudios]

Hahaha indeed. I asked the guys to tip me off when they drop new stuff! 😃😃😃

[@wilksy2008]

1st September dude 🤩 3 weeks before my birthday, *also* a Bandcamp friday - I very specifically researched this and told Sam, straight up, I’d be buying all their albums on that day 🕺🏻 3 of my favourite bands this year putting out brand new albums - in some cases, their debut. It’s so surreal my dude 🥹

[@StrateleStudios]

😃👏👏👏

[@DCastroMusic]

Reminds me a lot of Arch Echo, except these guys have a vocalist. Great stuff

[@297229]

complexities in the song that I can enjoy but hard to express, your reaction help me digest the song. thank you

[@wilksy2008]

HERE!! 🤩

[@wilksy2008]

This song kinda reminding me of both Color Wheel and Red Letter by Arch Echo haha. Well, video at least 😂

[@StrateleStudios]

There are some similarities!
