LYRICS:
I will thrive
In the toughest of restraints
There's no pride
When you're constantly under
Cold and crystalline
My bones have been through worse
Shattered endlessly... love the pain
Huffing gasoline
Has been my favorite mistake
And I've been wondering
When veins will break
Your eyes are soulless
Our skies have blackened
Comfort in my own hands feeding
This endless nightmare
Feel his gaze, my
Fear has no ending
Until we die
Look in the mirror
I'm what you fear
I'm crying out, but my
My inner demons ache
To find
No one survives alone
I didn't read the fine print
Of this poison ingested
Oh, God, I've regressed
Cold and crystalline
My bones have been through worse
Shattered endlessly
This dizziness feels, oh, so soothing
Suffocate this blight on my brain
Your cries are calling out to empty air
I take addictions with grace
Make ghosts aware
Fall into empty unmarked graves
Feel his gaze, but my
Fear has no ending
Until we die
Look in the mirror
I'm what you fear
I'm crying out, but my
My inner demons ache
To find
All that keeps me whole
Limb from Limb
Take souls
Tear it all out myself
Your eyes are soulless
Leave me to descend
Out of the light
Bleeding me dry
Entertain
Ones much too foolish to leave here
Pleading cries
Will burn away
We are the ones forgotten
Feel his gaze, but my
Fear has no ending
Until we die
I'm crying out
Oh, I tried to erase the shame
My temptations left me crazed
Denied
Remember, I'm in your ear
No need to fear
This was meant for you
Thanks for listening! Y'all are too kind. Glad you dig the insanity we're putting out. Much love to my bandmates for trusting me with this video and Adam Bentley/Jen Bogren (god tier team) for that massive final polish on a rollercoaster of a tune. Onto the next one! (More on that soon... very soon.) - Sam 👻
I love that this almost serves as a parallel from "Safehouse". While"Safehouse" was mainly upbeat and happy, this just is terrifying and heavy, and both were pulled off perfectly. The intro to this video was clever and well done, too. I can't wait to hear what's to come.
It’s like a modern day human abstract … it’s so good 😭
This is so damn amazing. GREATEST BAND IN THE WORLD!!!
Thanks homies :D
I know that it would take alot of your stamina to pull off but🤣 any future tour with BOS? 😂
@@rogersaver2606 Caputo is their drummer now he's out there CRUSHING it!

speaking of Legend, you all should watch the movie The Legend of 1900, great movie with Tim Roth as a pianist.
The story is told in the midst of the plot as a series of flashbacks. Max Tooney, a musician, enters a secondhand music shop just before closing time, badly in need of money. He has only his old Conn trumpet, which he sells for less than he had hoped. Clearly torn at parting from his prized possession, he asks to play it one last time. The shopkeeper agrees, and as he plays, the vendor immediately recognizes that the played song is the same recorded on a broken record matrix (master disc) he found inside a recently acquired secondhand piano. He asks who the piece is by, and Max tells him the story of 1900.
1900 was found abandoned in the first class dining room of the four stacker ocean liner SS Virginian, a baby in a box. Danny Boodman, a coal-man from the boiler room, is determined to raise the boy as his own. He names the boy Danny Boodman T. D. Lemon 1900 (a combination of his own name, an advertisement found on the box and the year he was found) and hides him from the ship's officers. A few years later Danny is killed in a workplace accident; when police officers, called by captain Smith, come on the ship to pick him up and bring him to the orphanage, 1900 hides and nobody sees him for several days, until he reappears playing a piano very well without having ever been taught.
1900 shows a particular gift for music and eventually grows up, joining the ship's orchestra. When Max is hired as a member of the orchestra in 1927, the two musicians become close friends, with 1900 that never leaves the vessel. The outside world is too "big" for his imagination at this point. He stays current with outside musical trends as passengers explain new music trends or styles, which he immediately picks up and starts playing for them.
His reputation as a pianist is so renowned that Jelly Roll Morton, of New Orleans jazz fame, hearing of 1900's skill, comes aboard to challenge him to a piano duel. After hearing Jelly Roll Morton's first tune, 1900 plays a piece so simple and well known ("Silent Night") that the self-proclaimed inventor of jazz feels mocked. As Morton becomes more determined to display his talent, he plays an impressive tune ("The Crave") that brings tears to 1900's eyes. 1900 calmly sits down at the piano and plays from memory the entire tune that Morton had just played. His playing fails to impress the crowd until his original piece ("Enduring Movement"), of such virtuosity and superhuman speed that the metal piano strings become hot enough to light a cigarette, which he hands to Morton as a gesture of victory.
A record producer, hearing of 1900's prowess and knowing that he doesn't want to leave the ship, brings a recording apparatus aboard and cuts a demo record of a 1900 original composition. He creates the piece, inspired by a woman (The Girl) who has just boarded and mesmerizes him. When he hears the recording, 1900 takes the master disc, offended at the prospect of anyone hearing the music without him having performed it live. He then tries to give the master to The Girl who inspired it, but is unable to and breaks it into pieces.
The story flashes back to the mid-1940s periodically, as Max (who has left the ship's orchestra in 1933) is seen trying to lure 1900 out of the now-deserted hull of the vessel, because the shopkeeper has revealed that the piano where the record had been found was recovered from the ship. Having served as a hospital ship and transport in World War II, it is scheduled to be scuttled and sunk far offshore. Max manages to get aboard with the recording 1900 made long ago and plays it, hoping to find him out. Max and 1900 finally meet again and 1900 is irremovable about sinking with the ship, being daunted by the immenseness of the world. He feels his fate is tied to the ship, and cannot bring himself to leave the only home he has ever known. Max feels useless that he couldn't save his friend and the two have a touching last conversation.
The shopkeeper asks Max how the record got into the secondhand piano. Max indicates that he put it there, and the shopkeeper tells him he wasn't so useless after all. Then, as Max is leaving the store, the shopkeeper gives him the trumpet back, without asking for money and saying "A good story is worth more than an old trumpet," and Max walks out as another customer walks in.
The old Opeth style solo got me feelin some kinda way
I did not have Aviations using screams on my prog bingo card this year. This is such a fucking cool and different song for you guys, the direction of this album looks well "legendary" ;)
Edit: 4:03 Wow and thall
Thanks or listening m8. New song just dropped. Check the page
my body is ready djentlemen
Didn't disappoint. Wasn't expecting quite this! HOLY SHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESH
Ice nine kills vibes for sure🔥🔥
I was NOT expecting a song like this from Aviations, I'm in love! Adam's harsh vocals sound awesome and the whole mood of the song is just excellent. Everyone is on point in this one, love Richard with the piano on fire, can't wait for the album!
New song just dropped. Have a great weekend ;*
The cinematography is undoubtedly some of the best ive ever seen in a music video. I never knew how much i needed to see Richard play a solo with his piano on fire 🧯🔥🔥
Richards solo on the new song is pretty fire 🔥
Love this band!
Always good to hear from you man 🥰 Plenty more where this came from!
this is probably adam's best performance
you guys make dream theater sound like coldplay
Been waiting the whole day
That is a beautiful sentiment!
Just so massively impressed with everything you guys pull off.
I love you ❤
this comment philled me with appreciation
So I FINALLY get to hear that riff in the intro used this year??? Color me happy boi.
Oh shit
Hahahaha sure why not! Whatever you guys feel like doing, I'm here for it. I'll follow you to the ends of the earth I tell you!
So ummm...that song kicked my ass. Well done.
Holy shit, Adam's vocals have only gotten better man. What a great song. The journey is amazing. Everyone in the band has gotten better, can't wait for the next album.
This was my first introduction to Aviations and not gonna lie this has quickly become one of my favorite songs currently. Not sure if you guys will take this as a compliment or insult depending on your taste, but to me this really makes me think of an interesting mix between "Ghost of Perdition" by Opeth and " I'm Not a Vampire (Revamped)" by Falling in Reverse with a heathy flavor of prog.
Regardless, you guys are killing it and hope you guys really blow up!
That’s a pretty sick comparison. If we did anything remotely close to Opeth worthy things then we’re stoked haha
You guys write some ear worm choruses. Well done- new fan!
I will fly
Guys seriously I love you all, thank you for existing
I was hooked from the second I clicked on the video!!! So hype for you guys!!!
Aviations never disappoints ! Can't wait for the album !! Heavy hugs from France 🇫🇷 🤘 ❤️
what these crazy guys do is supernatural, very few modern bands take so many risks to make masterpieces.
Long songs, complex compositions, melodic changes and not to mention the members that each one is more virtuous than the other.
I would love them to come to Argentina, but I know that this kind of bands don't have as much merit and recognition as they should.
but it wouldn't be bad to make a big event with many of these modern bands. i think i would start crying if i see in the news that Aviations is coming to Argentina with Periphery, among others...
Thanks for so much. looking forward to the new album.
Crazy and wild ride epic... and just fantastic!
Gone from the light years straight into the heavy years
Another banger 🔥🔥
This is amazing. Thank you.
SO GLAD seeing other people enjoying this song as much as me!
i love everyone's part in this song especially Adam's scream and the breakdown i just can't stop repeating it!!
GG y'all 🙌❤️🔥
When my ears needed them most... they appeared
Can't wait for the new album
Been a fan of yours since I stumbled upon your Berklee video years ago, and this already might be my favourite song of yours yet. Looking forward to the new album!
My dear God... How i love soo much Aviations! This band is the peak of stunning compositions and varieties of elements, maaaaan i loved to see Adam doing screaming, and Blumen was literally on fire on the piano, wonderful video edition as usual, Sam, you guys are amazing and i love soo much you all! 💙💙💙
Very quickly, with each listen, becoming my favorite vocalist in the scene.
You guys are amazing, every song I listen to is mindblowing and I really enjoy it. This track and vocals kinda remind me of some Intervals tracks (Mike Semesky era). Keep it going guys! Cheers from Argentina!
Man this is such a good song. Super atmospheric, love the wall of sound. Metalbirb's top 5 best metal songs of April brought me here. These reaction channels are so useful to keep up with the scene and discover cool new releases
That's amazing to hear, he's truly doin the lords work! Or I guess Satan's in this case 👹😅
ADAM WITH THE SCREAMS!!!!
After a very long time of not listening to this band I randomly decided to revisit them today and I listened to Outliers and some stuff from The Light Years. And then their first new album material in 5 years comes out 2 hours later. Crazy.
Bro you need to hear Safehouse. Song of the year so far!
Fr, I hadn't jammed anything since A Declaration Of Sound since metal doesn't usually do it for me these days... saw James share this one Facebook today and decided to click and dang, this do slap different.
@@sarcasm4371 is it though? I feel like they are so different it’s hard to compare. If I wanna be a sad boi Safehouse, if I wanna smash Legend.
@@sarcasm4371 100%
No other band gives me release day jitters. Pressing the play button on a new AV track is like tapping a vein. Cracking track lads, as always!!!
Wow when did you guys get Casey Crescenzo to start doing the vocals!?
Underrated comment
Vocals remind me of Tommy Karevik from Kamelot and formerly Seventh Wonder.
Yall really SNAPT on this one
This gives me the human abstract- antebellum vibes so much 🔥🔥🔥 this song is insanely good
Nice sound my dudes got a new fan here!
Man those screams could cut through glass. Amazing tone!
AAHHHHH! 😱😱😱
The beginning is scary! 👻💀☠️
This music is so badass!

This was so different from safehouse and i LOVE IT
The song, the cinematography, freaking everything is turned up to 11. I LOVE those harsh vocals, hell yeah!!!
So goooood. You guys really took me elsewhere. Thank you for sharing this with us. Looking forward to the new album guys! Much love
@JamesKnoerl This would make for a killer drum play through. So well written man.
😏

Just discovered you guys through Geebz' channel. Love the vibe, I'm absolutely in love with this song ❤️ it's the fresh metal I've been needing for a while!
I knew I had a good feeling about this weekend! What better way to start than with Aviations!
Heeeelll yeaaaa🔥🤘
Wow!
Fucking mind blowing
well damn, that was unexpected 🔥
This is fantastic!!! Lots of The Dear Hunter vibes if they went way heavier. Honestly did not know Adam could do screams! They sound so good!
I didn’t either until I heard the demo. Hahaha.
Crushed it yet again my dudes!
Wow Incredible! NOT expecting that much screaming it was SO well done, video as well 👏
😭🤘🖤
This is INSANE 🖤
Dayum, those harsh vocals though!! And that breakdown at the end ripped!
This is brilliant, love it!
Been a fan since The Light Years dropped. Listened back in 2018 and immediately knew you were going in a very small pile of bands like Protest the Hero and Mastodon that I can just put an album on and listen to the whole thing without ever worrying about skipping a track. It's been a while, but more and more people also seem to be seeing what I saw in this music years ago now which is much deserved on your end. Song's great as always, appreciate the effort y'all seem to put into everything.
Digging the harsher vocals, another amazing song. Will be on repeat for quite a while I can feel it. Also how great does the piano compliment the whole thing.
Imagine being Richard Blumenthal good at something. Best musician in the band.
Came over from Ohrion Reacts, what a song. I'm looking forward to hearing more. Liked, subscribed and added to my Playlist. 🤘
Love that James Wan Insidious opening. This track, like all the rest, is so good!
