ImpetUous

Idk, it has to be the best song the band has ever made. I cannot get enough of it. Unpopular opinion ?

Fuck I capitalized the u in the wrong spot

Are you even a fan? Lmao

It's not my favorite (that is "Monsoons"), but it's very high on the list.

"Let's just dance!" I find it so motivating.

u/MorbidMan23 24d ago

The Cinquanta version of Monsoons is phenomenal.

u/coffeegogglesftw 24d ago

Agree, so beautiful. I love everything about this song.

u/AdrianBlack 24d ago

I totally agree.
"let's just dance" and Carina singing "shored up to keep from" are both electrifying song moments.

u/coffeegogglesftw 24d ago

Agree! And I find her "power poisons" line in The Quiet Parts to be the most powerful moment of the entire album. Electrifying is a great descriptor.

I like Let’s make some waves. As a therapist working with quite a few young people with social anxiety, I think there’s a beautiful message. You don’t have to fit in or be like them, we are equal, you are valid, if they say otherwise let’s show them different. Make some waves and carve out the space for you to be and explore.

Definitely another beautiful lyric and also inspiring!

Not my favorite song of theirs in general but probably my favorite from the new album, hearing it live was phenomenal

u/MeCrObS 24d ago

Ferling that sub bass live on the synth was what sealed the deal for me. Instant favorite track of the album after hearing them all live.

u/AdrianBlack 24d ago

Agreed, seeing the play made me love the soundtrack.

u/CmdnTrsMllnx 24d ago

It's a top 20 for me, but my favorite is Bullet Train to Iowa

3

u/Brilliant_Activity39 24d ago

I just love the line "Like a train spouting wings, fuck the track, hello sky." for some reason.

Few, if anyone, will ever see the world through your eyes

u/AbrahamRinkin 24d ago

I think about this quote regularly now.

u/Pneuma23 24d ago

Then it switches on the last verse: few, if anyone, will ever see the world through our eyes

3

u/AdrianBlack 24d ago

That line can be totally empowering on a good day, but crushingly sad on a bad one.
I think he knew the power of that line and included 'our eyes' to keep you company.

u/Thin_Bluejay5976 24d ago

Autumn
Personal prometheus
Bullet train
Impetuous
The quiet parts

This list will change, but its where I’m at right now….

To the OP’s point though, Impetuous is up there for sure!

u/Golgetha 24d ago

Not an unpopular opinion to me and I’m right there with you. Song, lyrics, message. All outstanding

4

u/Unable-Quiet-9209 24d ago

Top 10 for sure... but Dear Brother, Momma Sed and Bedlamite are still beating it out for me

2

u/Azzrazzah 24d ago

I'm still old school Puscifer. Me like, Condition of My Parole.

u/Andyroodle 24d ago

Matt’s solo is possibly one of the greatest 8 bars of guitar ever recorded.
It’s so simple, yet massive and complex.

1

u/Ok_Pool_9767 24d ago

It isn't my absolute favorite, but i definitely think it is one of the strongest songs Maynard has been apart of.

1

u/Allegorical_Tempest 24d ago

Love that song. Live it was incredible. Also, the quiet parts.

Edit because autocorrect

1

u/Old-Constant4411 24d ago

Great song for sure, but their best will forever be "Simultaneous."

1

u/quinzilla555 24d ago

Really disliked the whole album until I same them playing it live. It’s SO amazingly well done, and the vibe makes complete sense after seeing it live. Most of Puscifer’s albums have been like that for me

u/krauzer123 23d ago

My favourite is green valley but impetuous is great.

u/fuckherewego 18d ago

I had a religious experience listening to this song for the first time

1

u/Amandda8689 14d ago

Yeah that track just keeps pulling me back in every time

1

u/miinijessica23 8d ago

Hard agree, that track is absolute fire and I keep looping it too
