This almost transported me back to the environment Swans' Apostate threw me into. The new material has been some of the most unique stuff the band's put out period, including pre-hiatus.
While being more beautiful. They are at the height of their powers. Who knew that after a semi-retirement we’d be given more than a decade of astounding new music.
@@aquakarnconsistently, too. Literally since 2012 they’ve put out 4 albums, each one 2 to 4 years apart, and each one either absolutely worth the longer wait, or mind blowing that they only took as long as they did (Luciferian Towers coming just 2 years after Asunder)
I need this band now, more than I ever had over the last 2∅ yeårs...... They make me so happy to be alive in a time when everyone has gone completely fucking mad, everything around us is chaotically speeding for the center, all at the same time & every driver wants to mow dow anyone who doesn't dress the part, talk the talk or play along while they re-write the rules on a fucking daily...... Everyone is screaming, crying & kicking anyone who can't see the sense in their screaming & for that they try to erase you from existence...... I've never seen people this angry, sad & wrong.....just wrong. No one cares about each other anymore ....... They don't even pretend. Never in my life, until recently, have I dreamt I was only visiting this entire fucking planet. I don't feel kin-ship to anyone anymore . Gødspeed makes me swear that I will not let these people & these times beat me into submission. And when I listen to Godspeed...... I know I will not fail .... I will not let myself down. This music is the fucking fight on me & these days.......I feel armed to the fucking teeth with it_
At one point during the performance I remembered thinking to myself, this is what it must've been like to hear Genesis premiere "Apocalypse in 9/8" more than five decades ago. Absolutely transcendent.
I did not see any waist in the Javastraat in The Hague today ,but it was very windy, and I had to look out for the cyclists, so glad I finished my work,going home.

Swans is in some ways I feel the antithesis to godspeed. While swans is all about the raw strength required to hold out a riff for 20 minutes while its deafiningly loud, godspeed is more about waiting for the crescendo. The small imperfections in the recording, the slow build up. Every single note being observed by itself. I love both bands but for completely different reasons
Agree. Spent a few months thinking this was the scariest work ever and was thinking how much more they could influence the track in the studio to make it the most reflectively epic piece of modern music ever. It is a shadow of this performance. Not disappointed, cause this will live on (thank you for this GYBE and the recording) but was surprised by the album version.
These are the most critical live performances which people around the world are grateful and fearful to see as we speak and each day as the tour continues. Peace
@@gekinatracksuit9710 Your acapella is too slow unless it was intentional. It lags behind the bpm. Its okay. I too have to work some breathing exercises.

it definitely has some inspiration from that era of Swans
the gods of Post-Rock are so back. holy crap this track just gets better and better for every listen.
It does!! it’s so beefy and right in your face
IT REALLY DOES GOD DAMMIT SHIT!
The beast is back!!!!
I absolutely love this, heaviest song the band has ever written
Oh, definitely. This completely outdoes Behemoth.

You're the best!!! thanks
I listened this song yesterday on the concert and it made me cry. I was sad to see that it wasn't release yet. I am so happy to find it.
This makes me extremely excited for the new album 🤩
Same here!
They just raised the bar 3xfold for themselves with this track_
They definitely went a little bit metal for this track in specific.

Goddamn baby let’s GOOOOOOOOOOO 🎉
The song is heavy as fuck but from 20:30 onwards I think I ascended to another plane... Really moving...
Oh, easily.
Im sooo excited, after soo many years i will finally see them live in 6 days , and with this masterpiece oh my god
I’m jealous!!
goddamnit, what a monster of a song o__O
If this song makes it to an official release as it is, it is going to be huge and one of their best!
oh, absolutely. and if they add field recordings, i feel like it’ll boost it up there even more
I'm about to listen for the first time. That's a high bar you done did set there.
When they released God's Pee, i was so scared it was the end. I'm so happy to ear new materials from them as soon as now.
it’s awesome to see that they’re back
It always feels like it’s the end with these guys
The best bands seem to love to do that.
17:58 I LOVE a Godspeed arpeggio in the strings. Each piece has one I feel like.
I also noticed that. Especially in high action moments when the entire band just goes nuts, the strings just hold the harmony down so well
jessica moss has solo albums. check em out
also if strings are your thing hangedup was an early constellation band as well. viola and drums but with lots of effects. they were great.
The part that starts at 10:50 is so sorrowful but also beautiful
Going Texas to Grand Rapids, Michigan to see them on my 40th birthday. So excited. I hope they play this.
@@welcome_to_the_own_zone see you in gr!!!!
they will

the movement from 20:19 till the end is so fucking beautiful man
pure bliss
GYBE at their peak!
Yes!
My 5th or so time now seeing them. They really explode in these smaller venues. EPIC performance.
I can’t wait for the day I get to see them.
This new record’s going to be something else…
it’s gonna be fucking awesome
I did not see any waist in the Javastraat in The Hague today ,but it was very windy, and I had to look out for the cyclists, so glad I finished my work,going home.
Wow this track is amazing, it's Swans' The Seer on a new level
It’s what Seer wished it could be when it grew up.
I think it sounds more like Apostate.

16:18 is still something.
the peak of music
Truly it is but what is it reminiscent of? It feels like a contemporary classical piece.
is this the most 'swans-like' song from godspeed?
Swans is in some ways I feel the antithesis to godspeed. While swans is all about the raw strength required to hold out a riff for 20 minutes while its deafiningly loud, godspeed is more about waiting for the crescendo. The small imperfections in the recording, the slow build up. Every single note being observed by itself. I love both bands but for completely different reasons
Yo, that's audacious! Like it so far. Great they're still trying out new things while never quite leaving their sound.
Agreed. The crescendos are peak!!
man this is epik
hope your ears are blessed :)
14:44
beautiful
10:51 Jesus Christ
Can't help but feel this live performance is better than the song on the record itself. Still a great record tho
