The Antlers - Atrophy

[EoinByrneMusic]

And for 7 minutes and 38 seconds...there was no hate in the world.

[ahamburger111]

The coda at the end breaks my heart.

[izimoo100]

love the song, but damn the ending is annoying.

[wyndowliquor]

.Love.

[johnbkrasinskilover]

oh my god absolutely beautiful

that last part

oh my god

it's so sad

makes me cry every fucking time

[lamothegabe]

love....it's so perfect



[Meelk14877]

@Carlzmotion thats the best part, it sounds like a whisper and u have to listen even harder to this amazing song :)

[ZannaRainbowStarr]

@Carlzmotion thats part of the beauty of it :)

[wyndowliquor]

Beautiful. Simply beautiful.

[MrArob29]

I wonder if this is why YouTube has the like button.

[TheKickasskatie]

truly epic.... the only bad thing is that yes, i really wish the lyrics were a bit louder. such a small thing would make such a big difference and the song would be absolutely perfect. i really love this song though, one of my favorites

[partyman147]

@TheKickasskatie shutup 

[TheKickasskatie]

@partyman147 Such a witty reply. Has given me so much to think about. Will definitely think twice about ever giving my opinion on anything in the future. Thanks for making me think deep this morning...dipshit.

[partyman147]

@TheKickasskatie good riddance

[TheKickasskatie]

@partyman147 I'm not actually going anywhere. You should look up sarcasm. What are you so pissy about anyway? I love this band, I think they are magic pure and simple, just wish the lyrics were louder. Big shit :/ what's the problem exactly?

[TheKickasskatie]

@partyman147 As eloquent and articulate as ever :)

[iwalktherain]

almost 4 minutes of beauty, then for good measure, 2 minutes of pure shit before the song returns to decent

[RBW309]

@iwalktherain

I think the song is about an argument and the 2 minutes of pure shit is the peak of their argument and then the acoustics after it is reflecting back on the situation.

[SchmuckoftheIrish]

What do they use to create the sound made at 5:30? I'm really curious.

[CanvasTrees]

@SchmuckoftheIrish the metal-eating bugs from the day the earth stood still.

[gsdivarox]

Never heard anything as epic as this.

[ZIDBULA]

... manly tears..

[noochasaurus]

whatever these guys have gone through must have been crazy, helped me through a lot. greatest songs ever.

[64ah]

@Carlzmotion They are the way they are for a reason dude.

[doondoom]

Play Shiva and Atrophy at the same time.....wow......amazing

[TheSecondComingRXSC]

@doondoom Both at the same time IS amazing, but that doesn't even scratch the surface! You haven't experienced anything until you play both songs together while 5 people's genitals are on fire(kidnap before hand), and have a hired Dwarf with a high pitched voice in an Ewok costume continuously scream "Carol-Anne don't go into the light!". Oh I almost forgot this needs to be done in a movie theater looping Tyler Perry films. The songs don't really sound any different but it is a unique sight! ; )

[ECHOES2131]

@doondoom same happens whit bear and Epilogue

[thatXotherXperson]

@doondoom WOW i did and the melodies go well together, it almost sounds like just one song is playing 0.0

[panmex72]

the lyrics are really too soft, it really lets this album down, its a shame, these guys have so much songwriting talent

[WazzaDoctor]

@panmex72 ? Weird comment. You're not getting it dude. You're not really suppossed to hear anything, music or lyrics this is all about close your eyes and withdraw. Feel it (the suffering, the fear and unknowing, the loss).

[kmacmuzikmafia27]

@WazzaDoctor

I kind of agree with him...I love the lyrics so much that I wish they were easier to hear. I get what you mean though.

[NarrowJoy]

The beauty of this album is boundless.

[zakwashere]

Emotionally devastating. I like it.

[kinghangabar1]

lyrics are incredible.

[daddycubjudah]

lullabies for forgotten souls, and I don't even remotely want to sound prosy, that just straight up how I feel when I listen to these guys.

[12319gp]

this is gonna be my wedding song hahahahahahahahahaha. after the 2nd year. just playing. sure makes me NOT want to wed tho . .

[hannahJhuck]

i love how their lyrics truley are a poem and so moving. They are so dark and beautiful.

[karlos23023]

i was listen to this song the other day in my headphones, then my girlfriend took my headphones and listen to the song at 4:05...and ask: what the fuck are you listening?....xD i said that i was listening THE BEST ALBUM from the last 5 years at least

[Svampard]

@karlos23023 you should write a book about that story

[karlos23023]

@Svampard ja ja ja watch?v=ggXmKPMaHMo

[KSmoothSaxG]

Anyone ever read "East of Eden" by Steinbeck?

The lyrics remind me of Adam. This is something he would write about Cathy.

[MrAudioStrike]

From 1:40 to 2:30... Is just amazing.

[thewannabe90]

I love how the beautiful melody of the ending of the song comes back and reaches its climax in 'Wake'. Bloody genius.

[jackantharia]

is this picture really moving? or it is because of tears?

[lynnaxoxo]

@Carlzmotion that's why i listen to this album with headphones on, lying down, volume all the way upppp. and reading the lyrics too.

[halloheimur]

I've never heard lyrics such as the lyrics the antlers produce. They are amazing, and also because I understand them and connect with them. The antlers are truly an amazing band, I wish them the best of luck.

[SwEEtCrAzyCaKes]

just lovely

[kennedyfortissimo]

This piece makes me at peace. How soul lifting..

[sapphiredream91]

idk what it is, but their music makes me aware of myself, of how i am alive.

[AmazingNadia]

I'm in love with this band, and this song is especially beautiful.

This one is from the patient's point of view. (I know it's pretty confusing to me.)

[rottenfungus]

This song makes me cry! i don't know why. I love these guys so much!

[pwoperfish19]

This is a really beautiful song. And relaxing. :)

[MrsSOfiaCloOney]

the antlers are such an incredible group, their music is so beautiful. wish they got all the recognition they deserve..

[katakotia3]

The Antlers never fail to give me that shivering feeling when I listen to their music. This piece has it all.

[seepastthescene]

such a beautiful song.

[lizourazou]

i love this. it beats everything else
