  • que lindoooooooooooo!!!

  • PURE & SIMPLE MASSIVE ATTACK!!

  • Where's Damon?? :P ;)

  • nice non newtonian fluid's performance!!!

  • loved this one

  • music, or sound as an instrument of torture

  • the beginning reminded me of the Half-Life² mod "Dear Esther"

  • @olive1913 SOMEONE WHO KNOWS DEAR ESTHER, hurray! It doesn't really remind me of it, but I high-five you anyway for knowing about Dear Esther.

  • @Advancedgod it's a great mod, should have been longer. great expierence...

  • @olive1913 Did you know it's being remade? Same voice acting, same story, new and improved visuals! Google it or something, "Dear Esther Remake", it's bloody brilliant. And by the creators of Dear Esther, Korsakovia. Ever played that one? It's quite different, incredibely frightening, but also very very good.

  • Singer sound like 2d in gorillaz !!!

  • @kath337 thats 2D O_O

  • @kath337 that's probably because it is Damon Albarn

  • @kath337 Yeah! That's what I was thinking too.

  • i hate it too ! so very much ! Cant' we even give marks to videos anymore ?

  • i hate the new youtube.

  • My only complaint would be that if I were watching this expecting a typical music video, I'd get impatient with all the breaks in the music.

  • That was totally unexpected. I liked the way the opening monologue about decibels tied into the torture survivor's story. His description was pretty horrific. I didn't get some of the imagery with the speakers and whatnot getting moved by sound waves, but they were cool as hell. Like the milk dancing on the speaker at the end; I didn't get that, but it was as thought provoking and evocative as the other sound related visuals.

  • where can i rate this video ? i cant see any stars around here

  • @comedyman112 There are 2 buttons with thumbs up and down

  • @Adamax146 so no more star ratings xD

  • I did listen to heligoland, and I enjoyed it. I read some lukewarm reviews, and I started to wonder if it was that amazing of an album. But after watching this, I can see a whole dimension to the music that helps me enjoy the music so much more, reminiscent of Lateralus by Tool, and their mathematical secret. Thank you futureshorts for providing quality content, thank you Ruhal Ahmed for being involven, and thank you most of all, Massive Attack, for making amazing music for decades.

  • OMG! heavy metal???? i mean for the creator, so i imagine also lover and artist, of this music is has to be a reconsideration of his taste. OR, if because music taste and human mind are so flexible and subjective and the interrogated subjet by coincidence likes this music style, would he then be inmune against this torture? then this would be a clearl justification of this music lover`s choice.

  • Heligoland is an amazing album, and Massive Attack is an amazing musical duo.

  • i dont get it ????

    whats the point of this ?

  • To raise awareness about the use of music as a form of torture? And the effect of that loud music on the human body? It was so obvious to me, I don't know how you didn't understand. lol

  • cool video!

  • brilliant!

  • And its a shit, like in Stanley Kubrick's movie `A clock work orange`, to be forced to something with a kind of music you will never like again.

    When i listen enough times to certain music in the same environment i finaly associate the feeling to it, and forget about my taste of considering it nice or crap at the beginning.

    It happens to me a lot at work

  • I guess killing people in the name of religion is some much more humane !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @randomlife41 at what point was that part of the discussion?

  • nice

  • i dont care what ur thoughts on torture are. nor ur political affiliations or w/e. but music they very thing that should be seen as beautiful and a release of emotions and thought of the human mind, should NEVER be used for torture. i would imagine that that artists who were played for the sake of torture would stand up, i certainly hope they do, cuz htere is nothing worse than having ur art used to make people break down.

  • massive!

  • pause and go to 7:13

  • @xxgg55 no

  • and the revolution will be held by ants

  • so true, my friend, so true...

  • Incredible. Hard hitting subject too.

    Beautiful direction.

  • @skycaptain301 Such is the thinking that dictatorships are founded upon. A great many of the people in, and who have been in Guantanamo, are innocent. You seem to be making the distinction that such people are somehow different to yourself; but if this claim of yours were true, then you would have to be able to go through the same inhumane treatment, come out the other side, and then tell the outside world it is justified once you're released.

    I don't see that happening. Inhumane is inhumane.

  • @anarchisttomato I agree with you inhumane is inhumane but mass murder is worse. I under stand alot of people in there are innocent but alot of people in there arn't. we have so much more info then we did because of it. I feel sorry i really do and if i did go throught that of cource i will be against it but i didnt O and the enamy does alot more damage to our guys when they are captured. and some time they dont give back the innocent ones

  • @skycaptain301 Understandable, but this viewpoint runs in direct contradiction to the very principles that the US forefathers established (I'm not from the US btw). This approach may seem justified under such circumstances, but it also undoes the ideals of the very system it claims to be protecting. Ultimately this approach is incompatible with the ideals that the US has at least *claimed* to follow and continues to preach. If the US is to stay this way, it has to be aware it is switching sides.

  • dude looks like mike shinoda

  • I have thought this for a while. Please take nots of the plagues of Egypt. they match a volcanic eruption well also. river contaminated, live stock killed, frigs driven out of the water, flies thrive on the corpses, spread animals disease and boils that eventual turn lethal.

  • For a film all about sound i would have thought the Volume of the interviewee and the sounds would have been level.

  • @superchimp you know what.. I tried what you suggested, just to see what would change, so I jacked up the volume at the sections of the interview by just a couple of percent so I would would sound it was level all thru. To my surprise I found it almost an bombardment of sound. I noticed I wasn't focusing anymore, the intense sounds the sound-engineer was talking about were not as intense anymore.

    I think it worked quite well actually.

  • Lose the Guantanamo guy and this would be even more awesome.

  • BUT WHY the hell would they torture people like this

  • .. to get the information they believe they have?

  • this is a work of art

  • Massive Attack<3

  • The sick thing is that the US gov. actually thought that this would help the war on terror! DUDES.. you just made a lot of (now) mentally disturbed enemies for life. Applying these methods of "interrogation" (torture) never helps. Studies have shown that torture is a not a favorable interrogation method that often results in completely wrong or misleading information. Not only is it cruel and inhuman - It's also counterproductive and simply does not work! Only Bush is stupid enough..

  • @jesperc20

    I wish only Bush was stupid enough..

  • I love Massive Attack, another great video! ♥

  • Amazing in all aspects !

  • massive attacks previous albums are better than helgioland

  • awesome <3

  • Awesome vid :D

  • beautifull and awfull at the same time

  • Damon Albarn, WOOT!!!

  • I liked it. :)

  • great video

  • God Bless America, yeah? [puke]

  • @horseradishBW

    as if the whole population of america supported this. gfy

  • sadly we did with our tax dollars and silence.

  • @SUPERSCHMOO the population have voted for them!!

  • @PureWay4 America isn't fully represented. Sorry. The votes of the stupid greatly outweigh the smart votes.

  • brilliant? beautiful? sensual? did u by any chance listen to the interview? the film is great and most impressing, though.

  • Holy shit... Absoloutely amazing.

  • well the film is brilliant I'll agree to that but I don't see the point of putting Saturday Come Slow in there...I mean Splitting The Atom would have been a better choice for the subject at hand

  • sensual!

  • i's so beautiful...

  • Love this song.

  • Brilliant
