  • @CoPezz Yes, sir.

  • Comment removed

  • lol *they're

  • You can see where Arcade Fire get their inspiration from...

  • @SarahBeatriceFoulkes well technically it's the other way around but hey there both amazing bands

  • @shauno5166 But wasn't this released before "The Suburbs"?

  • @SarahBeatriceFoulkes yes but not before arcade fire's beautiful first album which imo is better than the suburbs.

  • @SarahBeatriceFoulkes

    Read the sleeve of the album and its says Arcade fire helped with this album :)

  • I don't understand. Why does Spencer have a handlebar moustache?

  • i thought this was the coolest music video!!!!

  • this reminds me of the book coraline

  • great song.!!!! awesome creative video!! dign this one!

  • “In the modern world, happiness is a well chosen set of antidepressants.”

  • This is pretty corny, but every since I saw this extremly good looking boy while I was pumpin gas at a marnia last summer i've always pictured myself playin the gutiar & him singing & then when its just the gutiar playing near the end of the song he looks at me LOL. I know pretty cheesy but it gets me everytime. I never saw him again. ....Maybe I will this summer!?! I won't be so starstruck.

  • That's why what's important in music is not virtuosity, is the feeling, the soul

  • So deep it makes me sad =(

    But it's fucking great =)

  • I always come close to tears when the acoustic breaks into that amazing riff. Words can not explain how amazing music like this is.

  • This is one of my favorite songs of all time. Sad to hear Wolf Parade's on hiatus for the time being.

    If anyone's interested, I just finished a music video.

  • I fucking love Wolf Parade. They made my confused teenage years so much brighter.

  • 43 seconds in someone sniffs. wrap your brain around that one fuckers

  • such a good song its a damn shame hipsters have to ruin it.. damn i need a pbr :)

  • The Guitar away from 1:25 makes me kinda happy =D thumps up if you agree with mee.

  • @capaldiontheway No way man it makes me like extremely sad.

  • @zogriggs

    lol lol so true!!!!

  • Machines shouldn't be feared. ^^ Give 'em humanity is prob the best thing we can give to the world. They then in turn extend the standard of living of all others. We'll create them in our image, egotistical yes, but not without its good. My only worry is May the intent of their creation be virtuous. For the benefit of ALL mankind and botz.

  • @yahuaa Thumbs down for bad ideas

  • @gnarlykicks aww fear not mak not all robots gana be homicidal blokes. Still I spose we all choose what to fear. Would like to ask what is initially bad with the idea mak. Perhaps I can improve on it.

  • Powerful Song Powerful message Immortalized by 112,957 people!

  • 7 people gave this video a thumbs down. 

  • 7 people are in love with the modern world

  • This is one of my favorite songs now... not just because of the beautiful melancholy song, but of the message and the video itself! The person who made this, was quite a one of a kind! 1000/10 man, this is good.

  • I'm not in love with the Modern World.

  • 7 people are machines

  • maravilloso, qué caos en el que buscamos introducir nuestra mente, nuestra alma y nuestra vida entera al intentar reemplazarlo todo con cosas que definitivamente no hacen parte del mundo natural con el que deberiamos estar felices o por lo menos tranquilos

  • They're breaking up :(

    im so devastated

    many tears will be shed

  • play this vid simultaniously with Modern World (both audio tracks together):

  • Meaning isn't in things but between them.

  • wow.....ignorance is staggering on this first page for me.... :P

  • fuckin great band

  • Machines will replace the human spirit. Its a sad truth of our lifestyle. People see money, and then they mass produce. Then even more factories pop up. Hey, I'm sorry, but you don't have a job anymore. This robot here can do it ten times better. You're left in the street because of greed. There will ALWAYS be human spirit, but it will continue to be smothered to the point where it doesn't show.

  • @L07EK so deep

  • @L07EK The Machines already did replace human spirit. People already work like machine, they move, they live their lives in exactly same way everyday. There is plenty of people who live that way and its sad. Not even to mention whats gonna happen if the machines actually are going to replace humans, then what are they gonna do with their lives?

  • awsome video, nice song

  • machines will replace the human spirit if people don't stop treating each other like they have no spirit ;)

  • If I could live inside this song, I would, because it's awesome.

  • One thing I like about the modern world is Wolf Parade :)

  • stuff's too good

  • @xPhantomPoopx

    What do you mean by "spirit"?

  • @picturemebowlin But "Being" is made from "non-being."

    That's what he means by spirit.

  • Comment removed

  • @picturemebowlin Do you not understand what a spirit is? Go drop about 3.5 grams of shrooms, think about it, and then come back

  • Comment removed

  • @xPhantomPoopx Lets hope so..

  • I really liked this song, but I was always wondering where I heard this song before. Then it hit me! It's similar-sounding to America's "A Horse with no name." I mean, the songs are completely different, but they feel similar.

  • im listening to tool while watching this :P

  • fantastic video, haven't seen it before

  • Amazing, it really shows how far technology can go into replacing things humans do....

  • seems to me to be a commentary on singularity, in this case one idea of the technological singularit's effect on music. I wouldn't be too worried about it.

  • This version of the song is soooo much better than the mp3 I have . . .

  • Best video I've seen in a long time.

    And an amazing song!

  • "modern world it was a torch to drive the savages back to the trees"

  • @christhompson77 it was a torture to drive the savages back to the trees, torture, not torch

  • @narlybabe I think you're wrong.

  • @CH3ENE well think about it, torture makes more sense "it was a torture driving the savages back to the trees" or "it was a torch driving the savages back to the trees" but anyways, lyrics are always rather iffy with wolf parade...

  • @narlybabe HEY MAN AINT NOBUDEY GETTIN TORCHERD SO HOLD THE FONE ON THAT SHIT THE LIRICS IS ALL LIEK SENDIN THEM SAVAGES MEANIN THEM NATIVES AND ALL THOSE FOOLS ALL AFRAID OF A TORCH BEKUZ THEY DONT GOT FIRE AND THEY ARE A BUNCH OF MOGGA HEAD NUT WAFFLES SO SHUIT THE FUCK UP U DONT KNOW BEANS FROM BISKITS THE LIRICS DONT SAY NOTHIN ABOUT TORCHER

  • @MrMrdswoods I said "it was a torture driving the savages back to the trees". I didn't say "people were torturing people" you idiot. If you had learned to read, you would know that "it was a torture" is refering to how the writer felt in that situation, NOT to physical and intentional pain. Now, if you want to express some opinion of yours try using actual sentences and also learn to fucking spell. You came across as a blathering caveman.

  • @narlybabe OK OK WE BOTH MAID SOME MISTAKES AND MABEY I FLEW OFF THE HANDEL A LITTLE BIT BUT I DIDNET MEEN TO DISRESPECT YOU AND I WASENT TRYNA DISRESPECT THIS VIDIO I LIEK THE VIDIO AND I LIEK THE SONG SO RECOGNIZE THAT AND I TAKE BACK CALLIN YOU A WAFFLE FACTORY YOU AINT THAT DUMB BUT RECOGNIZE THAT I AM A KILLAWHALE PATROLIN UNDERNEATH DA WAVES AND I REFUSE TO BE CONTROLED BY ANYBODEY

  • Adam Bizanski, next Tim Burton.

    I'm pretty confident in that

  • @tabby163

    A new Tim Burton ? Please, no !

  • Brilliant statement.

  • great

  • cool song, is this tool though? j/k :)

  • Hahahha. I just actually "lol'ed" at that. Man. What fools we all are...

  • very awesome. stop motion is always cool.

  • HOLY FUCK. I LOVE THE CLAYMATION. OER IS IT CLAYMATION. OH WELL. GREAT MUSIC, GOOD VID. WOW. ITS GOT POTENTIAL.

    ---VUEBOI

  • Woah. I wish I could explain how that was done... but...

  • That was a very interesting music video.
