    I've said it so many times, but this band is (to me) the perfect culmination of the prog rock and pop sensibilities that I grew up listening to and the extreme metal sound I've grown to love by myself. Truly unique stuff.

      Yep! They're most unique band in existence! No other band can satisfy me when I need to hear some Vola. The combination of what works from the past and what works now comes together into the perfect package in Vola.

    We've been around for so long
    We've started dreaming of the past
    We'll find the gleam in our eyes
    And close our lids to make it last
    Now don't you try to stop me
    I'm not content in my role
    These walls of dirt are pending
    Pushing my need of control
    These moments are keeping your mind away
    And keeping injustice now
    These moments are leading your head astray
    And keeping injustice now
    We've sung these songs for so long
    You've seen us scream behind the mold
    We've dug the perfect treasures
    But never seen the modern gold
    These moments are keeping your mind away
    And keeping injustice now
    These moments are leading your head astray
    And keeping injustice now
    You did your time, don't you know?
    You don't have to conquer mentality once more
    You did your time, you should know
    Freedom of thought isn't worth fighting for
    These moments are keeping your mind away
    And keeping injustice now
    These moments are leading your head astray
    And keeping injustice now
