STYX | BRAVE NEW WORLD

[@deespence8629]

I’ve been a fan of Styx since I was a teenager in the late seventies! You still astonish snd amaze me with the raw talent!! This band has always been underrated!! Styx is the best!!!!❤️❤️❤️

[@sglbl]

Why this song has so low views? This song is perfect and a masterpiece.

[@andreichivu7653]

Because people have "hiphopped" brains...😁🤪

[@MusicFanKim]

Have you heard the live version of it on the Styx & REO Speedwagon CD Arch Allies Live At Riverport from 2000? This was the first version I ever heard of it and it still gives me happy goose bumps to this day! kzbin.info/www/bejne/eGmzqKeOa7N-mdE

[@sglbl]

@@MusicFanKim Wow great performance.

[@Teslafyguy]

Very cool video! Prophetic as well for these times. Much like Grand Illusion, Pieces of Eight, Paradise and Kilroy very pertinent social commentary. Styx, as well as Rush have philosophical and socially pertinent lyrics ("thinking band" lyrics) that cause their listeners to dig deeper past the riffs, melodies and catchy tunes and actually gain knowledge about the world around them and themselves! Thank you STYX and thank you RUSH!

[@sandyferati6625]

Have you also checked out Dream Theater? They too have great thinking lyrics.

[@jamesgoldman6942]

sandy ferati Dream Theater is my all time favorite band. Styx #2 and Rush is in my top 25. I can listen to Dream Theater & Styx all day everyday

[@sandyferati6625]

@@jamesgoldman6942 mine too! I loved Styx - my fave when I was a teen. I didn't discover DT until 4 years ago!! And I didn't see Styx live until last year. Now that my kids were older, I have been (totally been now:( ) going to lots of concerts. Saw DT 7x in 4 years! The Styx concert was So good! Better live even than the studio!

[@jamesgoldman6942]

sandy ferati I grew up on Styx. I swear I almost played them exclusively when I was young started with Equinox. I literally wore side 2 of that album out. Then The Grand Illusion/ Pieces of Eight I couldn’t get enough of them. Saw them live every chance I got. Grew up in a big northern city so it was often. Saw them with Dennis 12 or 13 times. Funny story went to college in TX & La. Became a HS baseball coach in TX. In 2001 I was coaching in S. TX we were deep in the playoffs it was Memorial Day ( no school) two of my top players came way late to practice. I kept them way late after punishing them. They knew the type of music I liked cause they could probably hear it daily from my office. The next day Tues they had burned me CDs of Images & Words, Awake & the single A Change of Seasons from Dream Theater. They also burned me Stainds Break The Cycle CD. I had never heard of any of them. 10+ years later on Christmas one of them sends me the CD Sound of Madness by Shinedown for Christmas. Dream Theater, Styx & Staind are by far my favorite 3 bands and I really like Shinedown too. I’ve seen Dream Theater close to 10 times. Only once with Portnoy on the skins ( Octavarium) that was my favorite concert ever. Their last concert Distance Over Time where they played Metropolis ll Scenes from a Memory was also incredible. Saw that show twice. Once in Dallas once in San Antonio.

[@sandrarogers7321]

I agree

[@schirpik]

Brave new world was one album it took me a few years to grow into loving ;after having it for 2-3 years i began to find myself listening to it more and more i started to see each song on the album as a masterpiece.

[@pacard33]

I gave the album a listen recently-- there are 10 good songs on an album of 14 tracks--which is quite impressive. I truly wish that "Everything is Cool" was bigger hit. Such a good song. Also love "Fallen Angel" and "Number One". Very good album.

[@jontrinks8125]

@@kilroy107 Listen to this whole album with this in mind: It's basicly two half albums. The half Dennis wrote in Chicago. And the half an album Tommy and JY wrote in LA. So if Tommy/JY want to release an older song with new video from their half of the album, so be it.

This was a really strong track from a decent (overlooked) album. I love Todd's percusssion in the beginning and end of the song. The chorus has that classic driving Styx harmony that makes it sound like... Styx! I like the video but would loved to have seen the band make an appearance in it!

Absurdly good. Love the video, have always been a fan of the Brave New World album (IMHO some of the best album art you've ever had, as well), and I gotta say, this video suits it. Still think the best performance was the Arch Allies CD cut of it on your tour with REO Speedwagon back in the day, when you were at Riverport Amphitheatre, great show. Great performance.

[@robertpornbeck7542]

INCREDIBLE

[@Fritz_Schlunder]

Interesting visuals. The depiction of the "brave new world" looks like it might be a less boring place than the current world. People should spend more time thinking about the future that they want to actually live in, in the future, and then begin working towards creating it, today. If people never think about the future, and then do things today, so as to make the future better, then the future is likely to become worse than the present.
