The Reign of Kindo - Thrill of the Fall

[@RichardLujanJr]

Drummer's playing in 7 while doing harmonies. Jesus that takes some mental multi-tasking like no other! So sick!

[@shiyo4758]

he's fucking sick, that's amazing.

[@CLRF2]

He's Focused and I think he plays Zelda...

[@SpocksBabeSonyaSB]

OmG! I know, right?!!! That's Steven Carlos Padin. Amaaaazing drummer/vox!

[@fakename3344]

@@CLRF2 Yeah, he's got a triforce on his kick drum. Lol.

[@ShineHedgehog_]

​@@fakename3344 you can see another nice detail - his snare and toms have a TNMT design 😁

[@Mark0Nolan]

Watching this in 2019. Still sounds fresh.

[@jaygerson]

2021... the same....

[@SpocksBabeSonyaSB]

2023 .. never stopped, never will!! ♥️

[@jaygerson]

2024 still...

[@bardknight]

Wow, can't believe it's been 12 years since I found this band. This song still "slaps" hard, like the young ones say.

[@sprth-bc2ne]

it really does. I just came back to them recently as well

[@chatvoleur5704]

This recording is from 2010!? This band needs more recognition. Definitely one of my favorites.

[@jogurtfm1512]

You know, this was the first RoK song I discovered like 8 years ago, and I loved it for the musicianship and the stylistic tendencies. Now, with the added life experience, I have got to say this album has some of the most insanely profound songwriting. I would love to hear about the person this song is about.

[@temirlanU]

have the same story)

[@allonbacuth]

The fact that this only has 130k views is criminal.

[@ZombiePenguinStudios]

3 years later it's almost at 200k :/ we need to start sharing them more

[@felipeeduardobravosilva6980]

it hurts to see such low numbers in such a great piece of music

[@DonVinnie]

Just realised the drummer is singing harmonies while playing those incredible beats... holy shit.

[@MizterClanz]

Any drummer that can sing while drumming is officially "Pro Level" status!

[@eyelezz]

this one of the nicest song in odd timing i have ever heard. its so flowy and smooth and it doesnt sound confusing at all

[@1986devildog]

Their music is SO clean, crisp, pure, tight, smooth, but at the same time its like it could all fall apart at any minute but they manage to hold it together flawlessly. All through their songs it's like I can't wait to hear the end yet I don't want it to end! A dichotomy?? So intense. I feel like a moth drawn to the light! So glad I found candyrat and thanks rpoland for the posts!!

[@droxid666]

I feel a tension at the seams I feel a pressure I never dreamed I feel there's something more at stake Too late to run away, too late to run away Something screaming inside me wants me to stay I've got to stay I've got to stay Though this road up ahead is marked with sharp daggers and flames I've grown addicted to the thrills of the mystery I'm just a sucker for anything I'll never see Increasingly intrigued with impossibilities Can't help myself believe There's something we're not seeing It's ok cause, we'll find it sooner or later There's a bridge just up ahead now We can't see where it will end OH it shakes in the wind and it's narrow and thin We hold on for dear life I'm shaking at the knees Ready for the world to see I pray God'll send relief I'm scared as hell but Something screaming inside me wants me to stay Got to stay Got to stay Can't keep my heart at ease Run till I hit the floor I never had a key I keep knocking at the door Need to be in control it seems we never know What lies in store for us How can we keep this up? There's such a long way to go But still we press onward the same There's a bridge just up ahead now We can't see where it will end Oh it shakes in the wind and it's narrow and thin And the ropes that suspend it are fraying It seems that we live for the thrill of the fall Oh for the thrill of the fall

[@brettwintersmusic]

The drummer's shirt makes me like this band so much more than I already do.

[@ShadowCrowX]

oh Joseph Secchiaroli, your singing is like music to my ears!

[@Holktube]

The best thing about Kindo is that most of the YT comments that I've seen on their videos are positive. Not just about the band, but about life in general. I like being a part of that crew!

[@tontocorazon]

God, Psalms is such a good fucking song. Top tier.

[@JessicaLieb]

I can't stop listening to this song right now. Right to the depths of my heart.

[@cjrockstar09]

Just found this band! This is great stuff..true art:) The groove in 7 feels amazing!

[@IguanoTwix6942]

Just discovered this band. I am ecstatic to listen to them more!!

[@ams3344]

Drummer 🙌🏻✌🏻🤟🏻 fantastic! 🤘🏻why aren’t these guys more “known” they deserve more recognition! Imo

[@grimschterry6851]

I met Steve at Rockwood Music Hall in NYC earlier this year. Shook his hand, and had no idea the whole time that he was such a musical genius. All of the guys in TRoK are musical genius', but I only got to meet Steve. Just sayin'.

[@caroldt23]

A love o f 7 years, and just keeps going strong ♥

[@Sgtfuckface]

Psalms at the end. One of my favourite sons by these guys.

[@Brandonwattsmusic]

Dude these guy's never cease to amaze!!!! And the whole album is SICK!!

[@CloeteHenri]

What an amazing present to wake up to. Awesome song guys. Can't wait to get my hands on the album

[@bones22j]

This just blew my mind! I wish I could give you more than one thumb up, but I can still favorite it. Great, outstanding, different than anything I've ever heard and yet it sounded familiar. So unique.

[@grantkaspo]

they deserve a video of them playing a gig, they sound like they would be amazing live

[@JanoyCresvaZero]

And God, what I wouldn't give to find some musicians half as talented as this to start a band like this. Genius.

[@Suzaku4489]

Its wonderful to see such love from all the fans of this band. For those that are hating on the new pianist, your hatred rings hollow. He's completely solid, and he has learned the songs in such a short time. So encourage the band, new member and all!

[@silas2622]

i only found this song because our school's percussion ensemble that im part of is gonna play this song and all i have 2 say is thank you to my director i am Bopping

[@ITNerd108]

That right there is 5 great musicians jamming to their hearts content. What I would give to be in a jam session with you guys. Keep up the great work. While I enjoy "This is What Happens" for the rest of my life, I will be awaiting to see you live again! Just Amazing!

[@TattyCaldeiraShow]

I loved The Reign of Kindo! Simply beatiful!

[@fsrajan]

Crazy work!! Gotta love the taste of the drummer.

[@amosminore]

I've been having this song on repeat since last night

[@drerook]

Digging the new tunes, gentlemen. Looking forward to a CA visit!

[@vicktorium]

triforce, so that's the source of his awesome power...

[@ShadowCrowX]

they're confident enough to put their full tracks all on KZbin, which is clearly easy to steal, but know that they're too awesome to be stolen. everyone buy this album, it is sure as hell worth it. the music is infectious, I hear their tracks spontaneously even in moments of silence without actually playing them on my iPod.

[@Maikel2Play]

The Drummer is crazy man. Amazing

[@superrantam]

Simply AMAZING song! Very well done guys!! Hope you'll come some day to Spain! ;)

[@MusicShiv]

@ShadowCrowX too many people's heads would explode from the sheer awesomeness.

[@beccabear801]

∑ beauty=this

[@mingo7777]

Wow these guys are nothing short of great. as fans we should help get there music out to more people. do like i do plaster your facebook with there videos , i'm from Cape Breton Canada and no one here heard of The Reign of Kindo ,but beleive me they here of them now thanks to facebook. Thank's B Penney.

[@TreyTrimble]

@ThePadintor That is EXACTLY true. They nailed it and are genius. Plus the melodic beautiful part of the song for me starts at "There's a bridge just up ahead now..",

[@deliciousjammusic]

Who else looked at the 9 minute length and thought "SWEET! 5 MINUTE JAM" only to find the studio track after the live video? Gotta admit though, I'm digging this song.

[@eightshotringcaps]

This is just amazing.

[@FrancescoGuardi]

The drummer is pure gold.

[@tkloppel]

All of these "live" tracks should definitely be on an album.

[@Inderpoldrums]

Beginning sounds like fight with Ganondorf in Link ot the past!

[@MrDaiohAzu]

+Inderpoldrums Yes, and did you see that the drummer has a Zelda T-shirt ;) Coincidence ?

[@alexgomesshow]

muito show, me faz lembrar do yes dos anos 80. e a voz incomparável, parece drem theater

[@wonski1981]

Great band, rpoland only has the best of the best on its channel. Wish them all the best for their hard work.

[@malikamakamuki]

@tuliosux I didn't know they played Brazil because that must be where you saw them live. I've seen them live and he sounds just fine. You must be refering to the few live video shows on youtube. Remember, the sound systems and quality may not be the best on those vids. On these videos by rpoland they are mixed and eq'ed to bring out good quality. Also, these recordings are done live in the studio. Check out the video ROK Song One & ROK Song Two. Both live & mixed well.

[@wastedninjadude]

That intro is possibly the sickest thing in all of eternity...

[@tobethelight]

@bigdawgandrewm i think it is :) they are the most exciting band to come out of anywhere for a long long time love the album :)

[@CosmosisArmada]

triforce t shirt. Im now officialy a fan. I was just checking these guys out, (3rd song i looked at), and that just sold me. :P

[@KristianKristensen_]

Awesome.

[@TosonDrums]

A true breath of fresh air in this age of musical mediocrity Awesome and inspiring drumming.

[@pacificexplorer6601]

Good music. Thanks a lot guys.

[@Davsuh]

This band is amazing...

[@Jameloaf]

Modulating after modulating. Mind boggling!

[@kamukameh]

putting the song forward and beeing progressive this way is awsome! never seeing a band putting this two elements so perfect together! fuckin' awsome!

[@TosonDrums]

I'm Speechless!

[@malikamakamuki]

@siloix What you're failing to see is a crazy little thing called versatility. Remember Queen during the Freddie Mercury years? They could do hard rock, heavy metal, classical, funk, carnival, all in one album. Kindo will not be limited either. That's why they reign.

[@KCYON]

I hope you guys understand how insane the drummer is

[@Spongierocks]

@ThePadintor Congratulations! your comment speaks so well about you!! Congratulations cuz you are one of the few peoples that knows what the hidden trick and the secret in music!! The best way of doing a song its to put something that fits the LYRICS! you have my hat bro!! haha IM SO GLAD TO READ THIS KIND OF COMMENTS

[@BrunoTaglietti]

I like the way they can make it agressive without any distortion

[@josetex]

at 0:19 steven look so happy!! well, i'll that happy too, playing as well as him!!

[@DustyHiHAT]

@xHerufaia @TheKiCkBeAt I believe he was talking about the song that plays after Thrill of the fall in the above video which is "Psalm" the last track on the album ;)

[@K3vinJC]

I like how you can hear the progression in their sound from album to album. you can tell they like to experiment, and it's really hard to tie them down into one genre or sorting. I'm calling them the new Zeppelin. too bold? :o

[@16drumgod]

COME TO ILLINOIS!!!!!

[@o7oGreenwoodo7o]

How does one simply sing over this...

[@MrGlenncom]

@TrooperCX look at some of their other songs and you'll see he's got some brilliant grooves, I as a fellow bassist thought the same when I first heard them ages ago, but he's really good!

[@pizz81]

One more reason for lovin this band. ;)

[@malikamakamuki]

There must be technical problems. I saw this video earlier and there was almost 200 views and the picture was much more clear. Anyway ... ... AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Unnamed0909]

@Holktube That's awesome. I love 7/8 time.

[@bouilll]

Oh mais c'est exellent ça !

[@AnttilaPK]

That drummer is really awesome at what he's doing ;)

[@westrokker]

really like this, thanks!

[@JackCooksonMusic]

loving the drummer's t shirt haha

[@paichaz]

OMFG ITS LIKE WATCHING MARS VOLTA ALL OVER AGAIN, WORD UP.

[@tenyearsgone09]

Getting an "Inca Roads" vibe from this, very awesome.

[@malikamakamuki]

Here they come

[@eRom3ro]

@CleverDjembe , I was just pointing out that he was a different pianist. If he's playing with Reign Of Kindo, he must be an amazing pianist.

[@Filiz2805]

groooovy ;) I really enjoyed it!

[@ShadowCrowX]

@jkman10 I don't think that's a degrade. It would be an honor to get their music out there to a younger generation. Given the other track sets, those musicians are popular for a reason. RoK are just as talented, nay, more so than the bands that have their own track sets. RoK would totally deserve people playing along to their awesomeness with plastic guitars.

[@TimSavage-drummer]

Some wicked drumming.

[@gorxor]

I'm in love with you Music. Thanks, Danke, Thanks, Danke, Thanks, Danke, Thanks, Danke DAAAANKE

[@Fjaka]

@FelixGimpl Yeah!! it's same with one band Opeth...their music is complex too but i don't know would you like it cause it's marked as progressive death metal...but they have a lot of jazz influence...yeah...and they have really calm songs...even album..

[@ThePadintor]

@siloix When building a song U consider at all parts. Music, tempo, and the whole structure must fit to the lyrics. In this case, "I feel a tension at the seams, I feel a presure I've never dreamed ..." With those opening lyrics U should feel a sense of chaos and they pulled it off to perfection. I don't think they were looking for catchy, melodic hooks, familiarity, etc. They have proved they can do that in the rest of their numbers. That's what makes this song brilliant. My 2 cents

[@rodanste]

freakin INCREDIBLE

[@AsimovBR]

MY GOD THIS IS GOOD!!!!!!!!

[@malikamakamuki]

I'm pretty sure it's on the album. You might have to click on the tracks until you find it.

[@dahudge14]

Hey thank you :) It's a great song! Possibly the best on this album in my opinion :)

[@JanoyCresvaZero]

@MrRigRar I'm guessing he was the brains behind This Is Also What Happens, the 8-bit album from This Is What Happens.

[@arturoalvarez_music]

This is what i call "excelent music".

[@TheReighnart]

The intro reminds of the whole Kiss My Axe album by Al Di Meola. Really good. Tops

[@malikamakamuki]

@evildemonllama An expected comment. Most people don't like change. I'm holding out until I hear him play more than just one song. From what people have been saying, this guy really rocks. He's no Kelly, but Kelly is no Danny. That's the best way to put it.

[@Boujonzu]

Considering how much the beginning sounds like Tarkus i'd put most stuff like this under the umbrella term Prog. But it does hint on so many styles.

[@sasukekubiwa]

OMG HE HAS THE TRIFORCE ON HIS BASS DRUM. Respect.

[@sgirondogs]

wow, I really liked this song. I thought this was going to be some shred fusion tune when the intro started.

[@malikamakamuki]

Sometimes for me as well. I think it has something to do with all the other vidss it links up to after the song is done. That's why this vid has almost 9 min even though the song is long over.

[@LeoPerantoni]

@DiamondDimebagDarrel Opeth and Reign of Kindo are on my top 5 haha :]
