Fans of the game "What Remains of Edith Finch" might be interested to know that that game was set very close to Phil Elverum's hometown. The Finch's house was located on Orcas Island, which is about an hour's ferry ride away from Anacortes. In fact, at the beginning of the game Edith was probably riding the ferry from Anacortes (although she could have embarked from a couple of other less likely places).
Amazing video! Love how passionate you are about this, and I know you recommended it to me before but this vid is enough to push me to listen to the Glow pt 2
Phil elvrum has changed my life. My girlfriend knew how much I loved this album. We talked about Phil a lot and she bought me a t shirt with the elephant from the cover on it. It’s ironic because I eventually met the same fate as Phil did. Getting cheated on by the one you love for many months. It’s crazy how much the lyrics resonate with me now more than ever. I feel every single lyric as if I am Phil. I got a tattoo of the elephant from the glow pt 2 and though im still struggling with the breakup, this album(despite how sad it is to the realest extent) gives me hope because there are other people going through the same exact thing that I am, and they will get through it.
there was one morning of my life where i woke up and was frustrated that i did. i didn't want to be alive. i laid in bed all morning, trying to convince myself that dying was the best choice. i put on some music to help me drown out my thoughts, so I began going through a list of album I had saved but had yet to hear. and by what i believe only to be divine intervention, the glow pt2 was the first one i decided to play. phil's lyrics about death resonated so much with me, that it reignited my will to live. art, even if it is about death, is only made by the living. once you remove yourself from the earth, you can no longer feel, and the previous longing to never feel again is only palpable if you can still feel after the pain goes away.
@@JacksonBurnsYT please savour it mate, hes so sweet. Went into it blind having not heard microphones in 2020 prior and my god i have never bawled that hard. Truly magical. Keep this shit up its amazing!
This is my favorite band. It sounds so breathtaking sometimes. And I hope what you will release video about Mount Eerie if you had felt it like the Microphones. Thank you for this video from Russia!
@@nodiet8660 Yeah but that's like saying Gorillaz' aren't a band. The moniker is utilized like a band. It's not just 'Phil' in name. It's Phil and all his various collaborative efforts just like Gorillaz is technically just Damon, but the collaborative effort is what makes it a band, maybe not a conventional definition of a band, but it has the collaborative effort that a band would.
This might actually be one of the greatest videos i have ever seen. I'm seeing it late, but i'm happy to see it. This really feels like a concept album in video form. It's really great.
This is the first video of yours Ive watched. Great stuff man. 20 years back, I freaking loved Mount Eerie/The Microphones,. I was obsessed with his music. I saw him play live 4 times. These sets were in an art gallery in Grand Rapids Mi, the University of Michigan Art Museum, a small venue in Ann Arbor and I saw him play at a loft in Cincinnati. At the loft, all the local kids were showing up with cases of beer to party. None of them were paying to get in. When I introduced myself to Phil before the show, he expressed being pissed by all of this. For that show, it was just Phil standing on a 1 step riser with an electric guitar. The lighting was 1 light bulb hanging down over his head. He started warming up and letting the guitar distort. Then he looked around, reached up and unscrewed the one light bulb that was lighting him. He then proceeded to play hard, in the dark. It was a very different, more intense, harder vibe than the other times I saw him play. It was not what I had expected and initially I felt let down but a little way into the set, I realized this was probably a once in a lifetime set, driven by an unfortunate situation
Like you I found the art of Phil Elverum in 2021, it was quick into listen to the glow pt 2 that I discovered his genius. I saw him in October of last year in a small theatre in London. He was touring the microphones in 2020. It was an outer body experience. I was blown away and still am thinking about it. After the show I met him for 2 minutes. He was a warm and gentle man with not much to say but he didn’t have to, he already said what he had to say with his performance. I left that night as a change person. The train on the way home I sat there and thought about what I have just experienced and I still can’t put it into words. It was like reliving the first listen to the Glow pt 2. This man has reshaped how I see the world and emotions. This video is phenomenal in showing this feeling and I thank you for that.
What an amazing video. I love the glow pt 2 and the rest of phils music, but I have a really hard time taking in the themes and meaning as I listen to the album. This video really helped, and was honestly really beautiful.
I’m so excited to watch this whole thing, you said that u used Phil’s music in ur short films, I recommend putting “I’m Getting Cold” or anything from that album in something, it would make an amazing scene. I wrote Phil not too long and he sent me a postcard, he’s awesome and he’s such a generous and amazing person. He shaped my guitar playing and my outlook on life, I really reccomend another band called “Foot Ox” I got the album cover of their album “Ghost” tattooed a couple weeks ago, they do amazing music as well.
I was really excited to see this in my youtube feed section. November of 2020 I listened to the glow pt 2, wrapped in an electric blanket and illumated by a autumnal scented candle. Phil Elverum filled the void in me, helped me confront the darkness. Im in love with his music and its unabashedly inspired my own work, helped me place my own feelings. I cant wait to see the documentary when it comes out. Best Wishes, H
Easiest sub of my life, fantastic video. I went through a similar thing with the Glow pt. 2 and it’s an album I think goes beyond music and conveys a feeling that no other medium of art can.
Wow. Just wow. This combined with the recent There’s No End video Phil made…. I’m truly at a loss for words. One of my fucking heroes and a constant source of inspiration for me and you did him just, SO much justice.
this is one of the best videos ive ever watched and im not even halfway through yet. truly something special when someone is genuinely passionate about something.
The way this album means so much to u is so crazy, i respect this video so much, and this completely changed how i look at this album and honestly music in general. Music touches people holy fuck
Elverum’s catalog is absolutely incredible. I had only listened to The Glow Pt 2 up until this year, which is one of my favorite records of all time. (Slowly becoming my favorite) I decided to listen to It was hot, we stayed in the water a few weeks ago, which blew me away with how interlaced the glow pt 2 was with it. I listened to the glow pt 2 soon after and decided to queue Mount Eerie after it. I don’t want to spoil anything for anybody, but I highly recommend listening to mount eerie immediately after the glow pt 2.
I think mount eerie is fully on par with the glow part 2 and when you listen to them back to back it creates the best fucking experience in existence 😂
I Started listening to glow pt 2 because the calming voice helped me to prevent fapping and do abstinence............. and i liked it so much it became my most listened album ever.
This is so brilliant. Well done and thank you for the effort you put into this. Hearing another interperatation of art you love is such a beautiful thing and I can rarely do that with the microphones as so few people i know have listened to albums like the glow and mount eeire. Ps so glad to hear someone apreciates the chaos on map as much as i do. That song is a beautiful whirlwind of firey sounds and emotions
Super cool video, great job! If you get to see them live at some point (especially on this most recent tour) you should say something about it. I saw them about a week ago and loved it, one of my favorite live shows I've been to.
Woah when you talked about hip hop beats on the early tapes and how that was so different from anything on microphones, it threw me off because actually i grew up with hip hop and liked how it has bled into so many things that aren't hip hop and i consider microphones to be one of those that actually does have hip hop dna in it's all over unique sound and soul. It may not have in large obvious manner, but i certainly see it, or rather hear it in there PS. Otherwise great vid, great breakdown, i haven't seen a whole lot talking about him and his music, so this was helpful. I have lived with 2 of his albums for a good 15 years or so, it was hot and the glow part 2, and never put all that exactly together but certainly felt plenty of it in my own abstract fractured ways. I was introduced to them by digging through a girlfriends collection of CDs and fell in love with them, and though she found a path apart from mine i kept my recordings to carry me through my own path. Things can get better. They may not be as good as before the darkness, because there will always be a high watermark in life, but they can be good enough to live and love and enjoy the music and even to enjoy the heartbreak felt when the album spins again through back to the beginning foghorns and all just keep marching to the drums
to me the silence at the end really makes me feel like i have died and am lying there, somehow conscious but unable to do anything. dead as people walk around me. i love this album a lot.
Well thank you, i heard first time The Microphones few years ago and of course I loved it but with lack of my English i skip the senses. Btw I broke up with my gf few months ago too, we had been together 4 years. So I’ll probably cry more intensively since now while listening “I felt your shape” 🌚
the glow is more than just love and driving force. it is a 6th sense. its driving creative force. its juju. its what u feel looking at trees n bugs. It's what u feel when u hug uour mama

HE TOOK HIS SHIRT OFF IN THE YARD
OH MY GOD. THE SKIN ON HIS SHOULDERS IS GOLDEN!!!
or so i’ve heard
0:21 Bruh really took his shirt off in the yard

Holy shit, that game has a lot of microphones vibes at some points. Easily top ten video games of mine

the glow part 2 review in 10 seconds or less when?

same here...

having seen the microphones live in london recently and thank phil elverum face to face meant the absolute world to me. thank you for this video
I’m seeing him talk and perform next weekend! So excited to finally get to see his work in person. Glad you enjoyed the vid

The Microphones, Mount Eerie... У тебя все хорошо, дружище?
This is seriously one of the best videos I’ve ever seen.
Top 10 TH-cam video ever
seeing how much you have grown has inspired me more than you could know. i’m so proud of you jackson
Genuinely the best video I've seen in a long, long time. Absolutely remarkable work.

I ended up using "The Pull" and "I Felt Your Shape"
love ya jackson
My favourite Phil Elverum album has to be A Crow Looked at Me. It is so heartbreaking and Forest Fire is my favourite song of his.

Phil Elvrum has been my favorite artist for years. Cool video
Great video. For me, Mount Eerie by The Microphones is the finest piece of music I've ever listened to.
Thank you for this. You're an artist.
I think this is the most creative review I’ve seen. Thank u.

Great video, thank you from India for uploading something like this
as a microphones fan, this video is amazing. you deserve recognition for this!
omg dude this video is so amazing
Dude making a long video essay on The Microphones is fucking great thank you
absolutely spectacular video!! thank you so much for opening up and sharing your experiences of phill music with us 💕
This is fantastic Jackson! Great work, we love the microphones!!
Holy sh!t. This video changed me. Thank you.
Return of the king
His BLOOOOOOOOOOOD flows harshly
this is one of my all time favourite videos on youtube (6th rewatch)
Man this comment really made my day, thank you
Incredible video

This is so well put together, exactly the video I was looking for. Thank you so much. Thank you.
I have yet to listen to the microphones yet but I recently listened to a crow looked at me and was blown away. I can’t wait to listen to this.
Super cool video, great job! If you get to see them live at some point (especially on this most recent tour) you should say something about it. I saw them about a week ago and loved it, one of my favorite live shows I've been to.
I saw them live a couple weeks ago. Life changing show tbh.
hahaha taking your shirt off in the yard at the start is amazing
I was so sure I recognized the other voice but couldn't put my finger on who it would be and I read the description and it's fucking Jake
Had a remarkably similar experience w a breakup and having found this album recently beforehand. Don't know where I'd be without it
Woah when you talked about hip hop beats on the early tapes and how that was so different from anything on microphones, it threw me off because actually i grew up with hip hop and liked how it has bled into so many things that aren't hip hop and i consider microphones to be one of those that actually does have hip hop dna in it's all over unique sound and soul.

Well thank you, i heard first time The Microphones few years ago and of course I loved it but with lack of my English i skip the senses. Btw I broke up with my gf few months ago too, we had been together 4 years. So I’ll probably cry more intensively since now while listening “I felt your shape” 🌚
I was immediately shocked when I saw this video had under 1k views. It already means so much. I wish I could show this to others.
This was an amazingly made video!
This is literally a Sundance quality documentary
I'd love to see what you think of mount eerie as well
not even 15 minutes in but this video is beautiful and i thank you for creating it
holy hell that camera
the glow is more than just love and driving force. it is a 6th sense. its driving creative force. its juju. its what u feel looking at trees n bugs. It's what u feel when u hug uour mama
The Glow, Pt 2 is The Greatest Album of all time.
Idk if it’s my favorite………but it might just get there someday :)
Love Microphones, glow pt 2 is my second favourite favourite album of all time and The Glow from It Was Hot is my favorite song of all time
I love this video
Nice jacksonnnnm
thanks man
amazing video bro! love The Microphones. How about video on SALEM
this is so goooooood
Great video
wonderful vid
This is such a great video! If you havent the album “In The Attic Of The Universe” by The Antlers I would absolutely recommend it!
yoooooooo
classic.
Short answer: It’s better than crying on your bed while listening to Pinkerton
0:20
Holy shit.
Guys.
He did it.
He took his shirt off in the yard.
it was hot, we stayed in the summer
its great to see young people finding phils music
I hope Phil sees this
thanks
should make a video on neutral milk hotel
Mic the snare brought me here
=w=🤓🤘
Did mic the snare mention me?
crazy this has such a small amount of views
nice video!1
❤️
i am just at the begining of the video and i already know that it's gonna be an excelent one. Should i listen to the album before watching this?
You can do either one, the video will make sense either way
“Why you shoukd listen to the microphones” Well how else am I gonna hear the singin’?? 😂 Yahoo
Lol
Why would i watch this video when I could literally just go listen to them?
I diDn"t kNow thEre was nUdiTy 🤓 🤓🤓
Nahh im not watching this you cant analyze Glow Pt 2's story
Why should you listen to ____? Man, wth is this kind of /mu/ slop?
I guess you're not the biggest microphones fan?
Jackson will talk about the microphones till the hogs come in but he won't even touch smoke sessions 2. Smh unbased
this band sucks, just another pretentious indie band.
its not even much of a band lol. and i dont get what's pretentious
The only good thing to come out of 9/11.
True
true
i just bought the glow pt 2 on vinyl a few days ago🤞
remarkable stuff jackson forreal
incredible video
