Protest The Hero | Soliloquy (Official Audio)

[@ltdsci2171]

If only Nobel prize could be achieved through music, "Protest the hero" should win it at least twice!

[@mrsilence666]

This is my favorite song on Palimpsest.

[@0martinlucas]

Oh god, why isn't any of my friends amazed by the splendor of this album ? I need to make new friends !

[@johnnewton8017]

Hi

[@codekhalil6437]

Hi. I am "friend."

[@travishardy5757]

Same! I will always love Volition but all my buddy's hate on this album and I personally think it's a great contribution to progmetal.

[@r2r322]

Guess we should be besties. No one in my circle (And I dare say, Island) shares my pation for these non fucked child prodigies. Normally one of them would have overdosed but here they are keep getting better. Thats to respect in a long time band like pth that started so brilliantly young.

[@kingtreybo]

Never have I felt a comment harder than than this... All my friends are into metal, and none have said more than 'yeah, it's good' in reference to the perfection that is Palimpsest. Constantly disappointed in all of them over it. It's been four years and I still can't get over how perfect this album is...

[@sleepdreamrepeat]

Protest just keeps getting better! Man I love Rody's voice, dude is so talented

[@fixedfrequencysask]

this is a god damned masterpiece, this song in particular but the album is just unreal!

[@sentineltrays]

I love you guys, just seen you in Chicago! Best show ever

[@ChaseRightOn]

I love how there songs sound like they're on the verge of chaos.

[@id79minm]

Thanks for making this album. Can't stop listening this!!!

[@indoorkiddo]

0:17 vocal delivery makes me think of At The Drive In

[@joshuasalgado4694]

True! They are fans of them and the Mars Volta, so it doesn’t surprise me.

[@OneEyedCrow1337]

I've been listening to this album over and over and honestly I don't have a full on favorite song on this. The album is just SO DAMN GOOD but this song is definitely higher up on the list for me.

[@Nagy_drums]

1:08 into that breakdown... Man that's awesome. Headbanging like crazy when that part comes on

[@SimoTmm]

the 3 chords at 04:20 are the same that can be heard in Reverie at 03:11, what a nice anticipation

[@broodypie2216]

I listen to 311 on 420, makes sense to me

[@joaogabrielonofre7297]

What got me into the band was "Little Snakes", but after listening to the album several times since it's release, I can say for sure that this is my favourite song =D The breakdown that happens at 3:46 makes me feel alive

[@andrewnodwell3564]

If you really want to live then listen to kezia and fortress

[@davnbull]

And if you want to die of eargasm listen to Volition.

[@scarabaeus121]

Very Very Goood! Congratulations. Soliloquy is beautiful

[@braveherogreenleaf6256]

THERE'S A MIDWEST OVERCOAT AND IT'S WAITING TO BE FILLED AND IF I'M NOT CAUGHT WEARING IT? YOU WILL! *YOU'LL HAVE TO DO BETTER THAN THAT, FUCK IT!*

[@opusmagna3346]

I wanted to wait for a while to listen to the album, so for me I went in with no idea what it would sound like. This one is a very strong track. Solid foundation of lyrics, a bass that will not stop the stomp on your head and guitar work that is so fucking solid. And don't even get me started on the drums.

[@feijoalfi1527]

3:46 - freakin' goose bumps

[@iAmSantiCruz]

🙏🏽🤘🏼

[@MrOGhippo]

YOU TAKE THE WHEEL, SO TAKE THE WHHHHHEEEEEELLL

[@ChrisLight1]

I wish that part could have gone on for 4 more minutes... Wow

[@taubrow4973]

1:57 This slaps harder than my stepdad

[@meganwood2019]

My favorite part of the whole album and I love the whole thing. Part is going to fucking bounce if they play it live

[@iAmSantiCruz]

Moving my shoulders from left to right. What a groooveee

[@iAmSantiCruz]

Megan Wood 🤟🏽

[@l-boi3004]

I don't know why a verse repeated after a lull hits harder, but it is very satisfying.

[@seanharrington3541]

I cant fucking wait for their next album! This one was insanely good, and the two b sides they released after..... Im seeing them tomorrow night for the Volition 10 year anniversary tour and im sooooooo hyped!

[@wg5331]

0:25 reminds me so much of Sic Transit Gloria by Brand New.. what a weird connection

[@DBZkamek]

GODDAMN I wasn't expecting you guys to drop three songs one day before release.

[@nathanielrambo3447]

They released the whole album my guy. Have fun😋

[@marstopia8992]

They stated on their FB-page that, in the light of recent protests, they did not want to overshadow juneteenth with an album release and therefore decided to release it a day early.

[@jaderpansen5838]

holy shit dat ending...

[@hartree.y]

Favourite off the album

[@noble_hc]

God I love this song!! My favorite on Palimpsest with The Fireside! But the Instrumentals is the best album I heard wow

[@brentonm2640]

Im unfortunately doing my first full listen through because im a horrible fan, but you all are just as awesome as when i saw you touring fortress in Lexington Kentucky

[@brentonm2640]

Touring sorry

[@connordalrymple2905]

Wonderfully refreshing on a bleeding hot day.

[@ByteRoster]

Painfully relevant in 2020...achingly applicable. Fuck, these guys are just too good.

[@DooMedSean]

[@thefallofranny]

[@oldGnRrocks1]

[@1missing]

Anyone know who the song is about?

[@cheeziobodini]

Babyface Nelson and the Battle of Barrington

[@1missing]

@@cheeziobodini My man. That is so incredibly specific lol, how'd you figure that out? Edit: Ah, after a google search, it seems one of Babyface Nelson's partners, John Dillinger, remarked ""I will be the meanest bastard you ever saw when I get out of here."
