VOLA - Whaler (Official Lyric Video)

[@mrdevilmanmashups2561]

As the only guy wearing a red shirt in the video... I'm so happy you used footage from this show.

[@Altrucent]

Adam my dude

[@jasonsharma5888]

You and red-hair girl stand out hard, specially between two white shirt dudes

[@adamore8371]

You must be a secret time travelling mate ;) Great choice, indeed!

[@Duckvan79]

3:14 ! Awesome! I'd discovered Vola a few months back and spent all day listening! 🤟🏽

[@farhan2414]

That's hilarious dude lol

[@angel_on_the_sideline]

This song is like a stormy autumn day with dramatic clouds in the sky and incredible colours....only to be brightened up by a hole in the clouds, revealing the rays of an orange evening sun. That's my association with this song.

[@micheleporcu2287]

Vola, Tesseract, Jinjer...simply the best things you can expect from the music world. LOVE 'EM.

[@garytackett8426]

That groove is so arrogant and seductive.. It's hypnotic and amazing!

[@huha123]

Agreed, you can't deny the bands skills at all. They are great.

[@kylecoffman5415]

I'll keep dropping comments on all of their KZbin content as I familiarize myself with their catalogue. All of their creation is choice. Every note. Every rhythm. Choice. 💯

[@DejaVuDejaVuDejaVu]

So happy i found Vola. It is a whole different level, it's one of my favourites allready, regards from Scandinavia :P

[@pgrlopes]

I almost forgot to come here again and listen to this for the 3rd time today

[@volaband]

Hehe. Glad you came back:)

[@jthompson759]

These guys are great songwriters and this one is a masterpiece.

[@emulations8562]

3:43 is one of the most uplifting changes I've heard since I have been listening to metal.. unbelievable that I've only been listening to about 5-6 songs over the last few days and I would say you have already over taken my favorite band AND another band who has my favorite prog album so far... I've had the same opinions for the last 10-12 years and you guys changed it in 1 day. Can't wait to see you guys getting the views, tours and following a band of this level deserves!

[@volaband]

Thank you for the encouraging words:)

[@gb2752]

2:00 “My dissolving eyes… and bones” wow love this part.

[@dennisfinan7977]

Stellar album. I'm an old school death metal guy, but this band is fucking awesome

[@kendallthompson1663]

This is great guys, I ask God to keep blessing you all and continue to spread your passion for music around the world.

[@randycluever4857]

This song is just flat out incredible. The bridge section has one the most menacing riffs i think I've ever heard, and when it changes right before going into the final chorus is a genius transition. By the end it feels like a mini-epic. It's fucking brilliant.

[@danucci1238]

Baseline sooo heavy!

[@embee5375]

Please for the love of everything good, come to the Americas

[@adamore8371]

Adam's drumming aesthetic swagger is so visually pleasant, besides musically of course

[@tiagoquirino2214]

It has some kind of a Mastodon's Leviathan vibe to me. Love it

[@Kazz963]

Finally taked the time to listen to Applause of a distant crowd in its entirety and i was inmediatly blown when this song played, its definitly now on my top VOLA's favorite songs. Its so beautiful.

[@fletcherfrets3497]

I'm so mad I'm just now discovering Vola, but so glad I found them. This is the most refreshing stuff I've heard in a long time! \m/

[@akerfeld91]

Same here ! KZbin recommandation, i love you !

[@angel_on_the_sideline]

Same....💕

i want a black mountain dew for my temper and my truth.

[@avdiyEl]

BRO WHATSSUP!!

[@swmtothemoon6660]

HOW DID I JUST FIND THIS AFTER YEARS OF LOVING VOLA??? "Black Mountain Dew" That was one of the best flavors ever!!!! 😭😭😭 this reminds me so much of Starburn with the way the lyrics are displayed live.

[@Torthane]

New fan as of two days ago and I am hopelessly hooked on "Whaler" and "Smartfriend". Wicked growling riffs, grooving drums, clean vocals, piercing synths, and killer hooks are making you guys some of my favorite music!

[@volaband]

Glad to hear that Brendan:)

[@someguy1892]

The breakdown at 2:15 is one of the greatest things I've ever heard!!!!

[@christianhackl474]

You meant *2:44 😉

[@Jay-vc8qk]

Please tour the United States !!

[@adamstemper2437]

I can't believe you guys aren't famous from this song. Marketing may be all u need.

[@SockerConny80]

I'm so happy to finally see Adam on a stage! The guy oozes passion for drums, percussion and music in general!

[@huha123]

I so very badly want to see these guys live, but I am afraid I'd break my neck... From headbanging, of course...

[@kilipeti]

VOLA is one of those bands which I did not admit at first. There was only one song that caught me. Then I went to their concert and something changed... Started to listen to the whole discography. Suddenly I realised I was listening to the 2 albums the 5th time.... This is how I fell in love with this band

[@TheEpicLH]

Which song caught you at first?

[@CallsignWulf]

@@TheEpicLH For me it was Golden Lighthouse Failure. The heavy intro contrasting to the vocals caught me. And that was during a time where I didn't really like clean vocals, but it just stood out a lot.

[@Sannosama]

I've listened to this song at least twice a day for the last 2 years straight 😭 Fugging AWESOOOOOME~! If you ever hit America, I am so there!

[@drew_Sai]

This album makes me so happy.

[@Roboturnerlol]

1:53 the reflection of the head stock as he sings the word "light"

Awesome album guys... Cheers from Italy!

[@alessiooliva2457]

È da quando sono venuti all'Alcatraz a fare da spalla ai Katatonia che ascolto in loop Inmazes. Da quando è uscito Applause of A Distant Crowd l'avrò ascoltato per intero già una trentina di volte. Mi piace un pochino di meno di Inmazes, cionondimeno resta un grandissimo album.

[@gardhul]

@@alessiooliva2457 Sicuramente un album differente, ma non meno complesso e intricato. Ascolto dopo ascolto scopro nuovi dettagli che non avevo notato in precedenza. Il talento di questi ragazzi è incredibile...

[@NuovoImmaginario]

Ci si vede a marzo !

[@rsg440]

This album is a jewel, when music fills you with joy and happiness, everything is said, all you need is listen and sing along feeling good... Greetings from Argentina, and I wish to have the opportunity to see a show of you guys here ... cheers!

[@coldaura4180]

I have been a huge rock-& metal fan for almost 30 years now, and I am so glad that there are artists out there who just "hit the nail" and create something as beautiful, emotional and catchy as you guys do. This is without any doubt my favourite song of the last months. Was just wandering what "whaler" is really about :-) loving the freedom of interpretation but was just curious....See you in Stuttgart. Will there be any limited vinyl for sale?

[@CemeteryGates17]

You lads are KILLING IT! Love this track

[@butdontaskme5345]

I use to skip this song but saw a live video and now it's one of many favorites

[@DerrickSchneider]

Damn.. that chorus is amazing !

[@drivn4895]

[@offom]

Guys, I have been listening to really all sorts of music for the last 20 years and this song is astonishingly good. Please, please, more! It reminds me of Aylin Aslim - Ahh !

[@andrei_heretic]

a true masterpiece! complex yet tight, heavy yet uplifting, they really hit the spot combining Opeth/Meshuggah/Steven Wilson. congrats and keep up the awesome work!

You guys are amazing! Great song and video. Cheers from Brazil

[@deadalonethe1]

You are one of the best bands live I've ever seen. See you in Budapest in February once again!

"Infiltrating baritone" oh yes... so fkin heavy and ethereal at the same time

[@Resifreak90]

one of the best albums of 2018

[@franlovelsimic8421]

Nice! Do Ruby Pool next if possible, cheers from Zagreb, your concert was one of 2018's highlights and that is no small feat when I also saw bands like The Ocean, Deafheaven, Clutch and other big boys. You lads are a breath of fresh air in an ironically formulaic scene (for the most part let's be real). Keep at it!

[@binzianer]

'lyrics video' is such a euphemism for this!

[@ignaciomartinsilva]

You guys are an incredible band, keep it up, greetings from Argentina!

[@tmotus84]

VOLA is a glitch in the Matrix, and I think this song is proof of it. This song is like AI trying to “act natural” and make sense. Attempting to “fit in,” using all the wrong words in right places. It’s becoming self aware, while falling apart, and trying to keep it together.

[@danielh299]

I saw Vola on tour with monuments. It was a blast for me as an musican. So, what did i do ? Buy all albums! :D I love your music so much. Thanx!
