- Pages is very close to our hearts and wanted to share with you behind-the-song insight into what went into making the records. Here's some exclusive footage of Ian, Sekou and Nick at his Nashville studio digging in deep on the sounds and process for In Fair Light. Here's the first half
When one of your favourite artists says stuff like "Peter Gabriel and David Gilmour" you quickly realize why he's the man.
20+ years deep into the band's lifespan and they are still releasing songs that are some of the best in their catalog.
I love that the band is always quick to acknowledge their influences.
One thing to remember about Big Wreck: just when you think the song can't get better, they bring in the chorus... 🔥
Oh man, Pages 1 is incredible. I was absolutely OBSESSED when they put it out. had it on repeat for a long time. Saw them live just before it came out, and they opened with "In Fair Light" and that was spectacular. If you haven't seen them live, I can't recommend them highly enough- killer show!
This one is becoming one of my all time favourites. I could play that intro in a loop. What a beautiful tone.
Love these Behind the Song videos! So much going on in this song!
Right !?!
This EP is by far my favourite group of songs right now. Greetings from Scotland.🏴
Where do I go in Scotland if I want to see something really beautiful?
In fair light is my new favorite big wreck song. The minute I heard it, it was beautiful.
I love Big Wreck! Great guys and great musicians. To me, the most impressive thing about this band is how they seem to get better with every single release. When the 7s albums came out, I thought to myself 'How can they possibly top this?...Then Pages 1 comes out and does just that! Incerdible...How are they not the biggest band in the world right now???
I completely agree! It’s ridiculous that we have to exist in an era of music where musicianship and songwriting aren’t exalted and pushed by the powers that be. Big Wreck, Kings X, Dream Theater, Spock’s Beard….so many talented, amazing bands that should be as popular today as Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Yes and others were back in the day.
These gentlemen keep me going. I listen to each album on repeat for several months upon release, never tiring of them. ❤
My kids will say "Dad put yor favorite song on please" when we are in our truck 😂. In fair light Is the tune they are talking about. Best ep I've heard in years!
Ian Thornley is plain and simply, a musical genius. Definitely in the the top 10 of the best l guitarists and song writers alive today.
His music is a gift!
Greatest composer in Rock n Roll of our generation. Can't wait to see Big Wreck Live this June in PA.
Thanks, and it's still looks like your having fun...can't wait until page 2
Continually surprising me with quality output every time, my son is only 11 and has grown up listening to you and every time I tell him about the latest release he is so excited 🎉
I always thought I heard “Light at the End of the Tunnel” kind of vibe by Red Rider when I first listened to this.
I've been waiting for this! The sound of this album is perfectL
To me, this is one of the best songs they have ever done
Amazing to hear the multiple layers of this song isolated and explained. Such a beautiful and powerful piece of music!
Love these Behind the Song videos. Keep em' coming!
Incredible song. I could watch Ian talk about these songs all day. As a musician, I love this stuff.
One of my favorite Big Wreck songs. Such an amazing feel and build up, would love to hear Ian write something similar again.
Incredible song, incredible EP. Most bands start to tail off, everything you guys put out is my new favourite music. Just crazy
That's a cool way of putting it.
I agree. The new stuff becomes my new favorite Big Wreck stuff.
Watching you guys breaking these down is just as great as listening to the album for the first time. So cool.
This song, bookended with “Bird of Paradise” makes for the greatest sonic journey I’ve ever been on. Best Big Wreck yet.
Easily one of the best Big Wreck songs. Looking forward to what’s to come.
My favorite band. I can listen to their entire output, every album, and there's only two songs that I'll skip past. I'm seeing them on June 2nd (my fourth time seeing them) and can't wait. Pages 1 is uniformly outstanding. I can't get enough of Summerlong. I'm really hoping they'll play it when I see them. Easily the most underrated band going right now.
Wish they would film some rehearsing and/or performance of the Thornley 'Come Again ' concert for those of us who can't go.
You guys are stellar in so many ways. Been listening to you guys since 97 was was hooked back then. Your song writing is great and carries me through my days. Keep it up!
My favorite song lately, so glad to see this breakdown. I knew I felt 90’s Pink Floyd here.
First time I heard In Fair Light I was grinning ear to ear. Absolutely love everything about it.
I love these break down videos! I wish you would have done them for 7.2 and 7.3 to go with the ones for 7.1.
I loved every second of this!!!!! Thank you for the sweet glimpse behind the scenes of this masterpiece EP
Fantastic song. Love this behind the scenes on it. Thank you.
Love watching these. I hope they do white lies. 🤘
The notes chosen in that opening guitar riff are truly magical and invoke something in my brain that can only be done by Ian.
I realized listening to this song that, being a humble guy, I don't take time in my life to celebrate victories even though I should, I end up just moving onto the next. I am getting on in life now and am inspired somehow by this track to celebrate everyone moving forward big or small. I hope everyone thats works on, or listens to, these albums maybe finds an intense moment of clarity through inspiration too.
how i didn`t see this?! anyway, this is my favorite track of the record! and fovourite song in a very long time, love it so much, thanks guys!
Phenomenal song, I’m stuck on it! Just killer!
This is a phenomenal album!
I LOVE THIS SONG! It hit all the right parts of the brain, more and more as it kept building, and then it really pays off through to the end!
Pages 1 released literally a week before I saw you guys in Seattle…The minute I heard In Fair Light I thought to myself - they’re gonna open with that…
And ya didn’t disappoint!!!
(Would’ve been nice to have heard more 7 tracks tho 😁😁😁)…
Mi canción favorita. Una obra perfecta !
damn this song is SOOOOOOOOO good!
One of my favorite song from Big Wreck!
This is great! When can we expect Pages 2?
More of these please, Ian!!!
Awesome song
Thanks so much for doing these breakdown vids again. It’s really fun to break into a song’s anatomy.
This song is incredible live, especially as the opener. Curious why live bass isn't played intro during the show?
YES!!!!!!!
Great song! Loop sounds close to One Slip by Pink Floyd. 😊
Awesome 👏🏼
3 dudes, all great at what they do.
this is SWEEET!! Thos bigs MY GOD :0
Love these breakdowns and explanations. Keep em coming.
Very, very kick ass. Thanks for sharing this breakdown.
13:04 geeeeez that’s massive!!
Pages 1 is amazing.
Amazing song! 🙏❤️
As soon As soon as i first heared that guitar hook i thought, ahh , Shine on You Crazy Diamond.
I will never understand why Big Wreck did not take off when the band hit the scene in the 90s. I've been a fan since The Oaf hit the Boston airwaves back then and the band has only gotten better and better. IFT is one of the most gifted musicians ever.
FuggnEh friday cheers from ontario Thornley ya legend
Keep it coming! BTS is my jam!
I love everything about this song - especially being a big Genesis fan myself. Such a breath of fresh air. Are the guitars standard tuning?
The beginning of this makes me think of Miami Vice; it has such a Jan Hammer-esque vibe to it. EDIT: by the way, I was typing this and "Miami Vice" was mentioned about a minute after I hit enter.
This song cranked in my Audi at high rates of speed is pretty epic…🔊
Great stuff!
Lookin like billy bob thorton
Sounds similar to Walking in Your Footsteps by The Police.
The video kinda ends abruptly, cuts Sekou off mid-sentence. I need closure on his Prince anecdote!
To be continued.....
Same here!
BigWreck + QOTSA + STP in Brazil PLEEEASE!
Where’s the second half? 😭
Pages ONE❓❓
Meaning there's a Pages TWO ⁉️⁉️
I believe they've said they recorded a full album. They're splitting it into Pages 1-3.
They recorded 18 songs total I believe.
@@rjwagz ... maybe more....
Ian isn't a very nice guy
Don’t know him…why do you say that???
Ian is one of the most humble people you could ever meet.
