Enemy of the sun opened up a whole new world of amazing music for me, I was 13 and listened to slayer and anthrax, but not anymore... At 31 I'm still listening to neurosis! Music that withstands time and will always be beyond amazing
@setlasmon I still play some old slayer from time to time, the epic sound of "reigning blood" and "seasons in the abyss" In fact I still own Seasons, it managed to withstand the loss and time of all my other records.
@TheKnives777 noice! too true.. their newer stuff tows the line pretty well but nothing can ever touch those classics. ive seen countless bands live but never caught Slayer despite them always being a fave. still on the bucket list. tho I am far too old and wise to venture into the pit!
Just discovered this band, now I feel slightly posessed by a force beyond all the boundaries of the world....I need a cigarrete and money to buy this record.
I love this band.they are 1 of the few metal bands,that when someone asks you what they sound like you say well....you just have to hear them for yourselves.Amazing,criminally underrated
I can't get past the painfully long intros to find out if they suck or not. Ok, yeah, they're terrible. But that is some wicked artwork. It's sick. I like it. Too bad they suck.
1# Neurosis song...next to Raze the Stray and Enemy of the Sun which is why easily this is the best album they have ever done. I read in an interview long ago from the bassist Edwardson this was supposed to be an EP but added more songs to get well past to the 30 minute mark. I"m glad they did. I originally bought this on tape then bought the cd which hated because of the long version of clense.
Then I learned they reissued this album and think it was remastered on their own labem and bought it
THIS was one of the best albums of the 90's. I remember reading about these guys and then i found this album at a used CD store. Listened to about 2 minutes of this song and decided that was enough to buy it.
How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood, some afternoon that's so deeply a part of your being that you can't even conceive of your life without it? Perhaps four or five times more. Perhaps not even. How many more times will you watch the full moon rise? Perhaps twenty. And yet it all seems limitless."
Love the beginning quote from The Sheltering Sky by Paul Bowles...
"Death is always on the way, but the fact that you don't know when it will arrive seems to take away from the finiteness of life. It's that terrible precision that we hate so much. But because we don't know, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well. Yet everything happens a certain number of times, and a very small number, really. ..
to see if your paying attention.........refering to the nickleback......in the year of the pig...what's that? I love trying to figure out the sample sources........ yeah...probably nickleback has enough stock in youtube to fuck shit up for you.......
@maryperkins666 Yes, but we should be thankful for Mastodon, they are helping make a whole new generation of kids appreciate the sludge genera. Through Mastodon I found bands like Neurosis and Isis and the like.
One of the best Neurosis albums in my opinion. So many amazing songs, so much great use of stereo and layering, so much shit to just drone out to....
One very cool thing about this band is that they are very good people with no egos. You can talk to anybody who knows them or has worked with them. Hearts of gold.
I discovered this band after I went into a now defunct local record shop and saw the souls at zero/enemy of the sun combo album with the ace artwork and bought it on a whim. I played the albums through back to back most of the day and just let it wash over me. Just so layered, dense and primal. Pure audio ejaculatons! lol
maybe the most underappreciated metal band of all time. it's a fucking travesty that these guys haven't gotten even a tenth of the recognition they deserve.
@shredder731 I think what you meant to say was Mastodon ripped off their musical style and watered down any meaningfulness in order to sell posers like you records.
@GIMMEADOLLAR1 i'm not saying neurosis is bad, i thoroughly enjoy them, i'm just more into mastodon. and they didn't rip them of, they were just really heavily influenced by them, watch old interviews, they say it helped them write call of the mastodon/remission.
why the hell does nickleback come up in the sidebar suggestions? i mean i know in reality someone listens to nickleback and neurosis so it says "oh well this person likes neurosis and also listens to nickleback so maybe you do to" but you would think computers would have enough A.I. by now to say NO NO NO! the dudes from neurosis could spray diarrhea on their guitar strings and make better music than nickleback.
This music makes me feel suicidal :P I'm not saying I don't like it, very epic, apocalyptic music. Not really my type of music I guess, but it's good.
omg... the guy who says are you lost, he sounds like that narrator from whinnie the pooh, anyone else realise that? like this is an incredible song but i think it sounds frightningly similar..
anybody know in the audio segment at 1:47 he says "i wouldn't be lying to you if i said akfjlsa are the peace makers..." wtf is he saying are the peace makers? i cant understand
@123mattj321 "I would remind you that Scripture tells us that blessed are the peacemakers. And it takes a lot of doing, to make peace. It takes a good deal of hard work, building like a mighty cathedral stone by stone, block by block. And I sometimes wonder... " sample taken from the "In the year of the pig" movie.
@123mattj321 Peacemakers in Scripture are mentioned in Jesus' Sermon on the Mount. e describes people who work for the common good and avoid conflict as blessed by God.
It's true, Brendan Lee has quoted the last scene/speech of "The Sheltering Sky" in an interview. The same speech is even engraved in his tombstone (search for the pic in wiki or google).
Nevermind the damn quote, listen to this god of a song:)
awesome song, awesome band. this shit is still hugely relevant today thanks to good song writing and structure. still leading the pack and pissing on the contenders. give me more!
This album was their best work...They kinda lost me after this one...Saw them in concert at the Omni New Daisy in Memphis when Silver and Blood came out. Loudest concert I've ever been to! Worth the hearing damage though!
an amazing album, i remember growing up on this stuff. we use to go up in the mountains of tennessee and build a bonfire an ingest LSD and sit and watch the end of time, wouldnt trade those memories for anything
Holy shit, I wish South Texas had more mountains. I'd grow up listening to Tool, then discover other amazing bands to accompany them as I listen to them while eating shrooms.

stone by stone by stone by stone by stone.......Bands like this dont come along very often that really affect you and your views on music. Neurosis do this to me lol.
Oh, man... I'll tell you just one thing: they wrapped up their show with a monsterous Through Silver In Blood that had everyone in the audience crushed to the ground like mere ants and, as soon as they were finished beating those drums, outside it started raining. The first rain we saw in more than a week. It was frightening.
Of course you shouldn't miss next Roadburn, but I heard they're playing somewhere in Finland, in July if I am not mistaken.

But that's just a guess based on the context of what he's saying. Listen to that spot over and over maybe you have a better guess.

The way the sample: "I WOULDN'T BE LYING TO YOU.... etc" barrels into the song at: 1:47 is fucking sick!

it's from the movie "In the year of the pig". it goes: "I would remind you that Scripture tells us that blessed are the peacemakers. And it takes a lot of doing, to make peace. It takes a good deal of hard work, building like a mighty cathedral stone by stone, block by block. And I sometimes wonder... "

I knew the rest of what was said, but on closer listen, you're right... It's "I would remind you," NOT "I wouldn't be lying to you."
While I'm not anti-war, I do like documentaries, and loved Errol Morris' "The fog of war (2003)." I will have to check out "In the year of the pig."
Thanks for the info!

Isn't the intro to this song from an interview with Brandon Lee?

I have to say, this is probably my favorite piece of art by Neurosis.

Because we don't know when we will die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustable well. Yet everything happens only a certain number of times, and a very small number really. How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood, some afternoon that is so deeply part of your being that you, that you can't even conceive of your life without it. Perhaps four or five times more, perhaps not even that. How many more times will you watch the full moon rise?

I heard they were crushing at Roadburn. I have got to see these guys live.

Oh, man... I'll tell you just one thing: they wrapped up their show with a monsterous Through Silver In Blood that had everyone in the audience crushed to the ground like mere ants and, as soon as they were finished beating those drums, outside it started raining. The first rain we saw in more than a week. It was frightening.
Of course you shouldn't miss next Roadburn, but I heard they're playing somewhere in Finland, in July if I am not mistaken.
