God Is An Astronaut - A Moment Of Stillness

[crazyrazor666]

the best part is from 4:51 - 7:40

[shremsh21]

wat 2 ppl disliked this DIVINE SONG!!!????

[exnDesigns]

I just love hearing some of the riffs from their other songs incorporated and changed to create a whole new sound! Genuis. Pure genius.

[oaklandrmoss18]

God is a meteorologist.

[SupaflyTNT777]

I love this band all the way to my bone marrow. :)

[paranojaaaaaa]

dosadne rasprave o postrock grupama tetovirani japanski znakovi po rukama :)

[1armedghostsamurai]

chedda 2 my ears

[mostmetalrules789]

holy repeat

[OmglolNarutorules]

Goodbye Tashy :(

[OmglolNarutorules]

Could totally be Mass Effect 3 Credits music

[justyna3303]

(^_^) 

[XShamuelX]

Good god just discovered this band along with, 'Explosions in the sky' both very good bands....what's pissing me of is all the stupid comments about this kind of instrumental music....they convey an emotion and feeling which they prefer not to taint with words so it connects with a wider audience (It's about you not them as musicians). If you don't get that why even listen to music?

[DemiLovato688]

lol

[DARKREAPINGJUGGALO]

coolest and most creative artist name.

[TheClassica92]

very cool

[hunter612ful]

Play A Moment of Stillness and Forever Lost together (Forever Lost behind by about 15 seconds). Sounds very weirdly soothing in some parts...

[420deftonestoner]

this song is a-fucking-mazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!

[drds89]

Have they ever written a song that doesn't rate 10/10? awesome.

[mrbeezible]

This song is amazing BECAUSE it has no words. The way it touches you, and your soul is indescribable. It makes you feel like you can do anything, and that beyond the sky is the limit. You can describe how you're feeling in your own words because the music allows you to do so. This music is simply remarkable. At first when I listened to it, I didn't get it. I took it as pretty music, and that was it. But listening to the band, the music is so much more. It allows you to escape, or cry, or vent.<3

[JordiSmulders]

@mrbeezible

(good) music is the language of gods.

[Breakside92]

not just Music for the ear.Music for all sins

[wraychus]

This song should be renamed to "A Moment of Awesomeness"

[drunkonlight]

Its a wonderful song and as other people have said really does not require vocals to get across the intent of the song. I love Post-Rock for that reason :)

[LoraparkGirl]

thumbs up if you're listening this in 2011

[Spazzcopter]

@LoraparkGirl Let me know if you find any who are listening in any other year, because they will have invented time-travel XD

[MistaXwiggles]

@LoraparkGirl no top comment 4 u

[artistrecruit87]

@MistaXwiggles HAHAHAHAHAHA. That's funny as shit man.

[BENNSTEW58]

Can't describe....

[jbmayer]

@JWRONG1996 sorry to spoil it for you but its a quote from Clive Barkers movie "Nightbreed." they didnt make it up

[foofight3rs]

idk about you guys but i just say the name "God Is A Astronaut" ....so i started listening them, different but really nice :)

[Darkphantom733]

[idontexist01]

@JWRONG1996

easily mixed when they work perfectly together. but yeah. neat for sure.

[idontexist01]

@JWRONG1996

mixes? there fit perfectly together. but yeah. neat for sure

[MacDaSkwack]

4:40 - 7:39 for a moment of stillness

[kar989]

1 person hates good music. This is one of the best bands i've ever heard.

[NIN99Koala]

I love the picture of the sailboat stuck in the endless deserts. The truly touched me at the interlude of this amazing song...

[PepperGothic]

simply beautiful. all of their songs are and any songs that fit into this genre. they hold so much power and meaning without having to say anything in them at all. its a shame most people in my school have never even taken the time to listen to music like this... maybe they should.

[MirelaK75]

I just love their music!!

[p6v53as435fe]

1:06 Lietuvos veliava :D

[P0YSiN]

Their music says more than any song with words ever could. You can make it whatever you need.

[FPSoCOOK]

had an awful day, and just found out about this band. Thanks because I really needed this, what an amazing song, 

[SlovenianJunkie]

This is such a dream Recall

[domenicosangiorgi]

This is a underrated masterpiece.

[flipboi37]

This type of music is what the MAJORITY of the world will NEVER understand nor appreciate. I'm thankful enough that I'm able to appreciate this type of music.

[jaksunite1]

I love the names of these songs. They're beautiful, and I love how I find a great, deep meaning in everyone of their songs and yet there are no lyrics. It leaves your mind free to wander wherever it pleases.

[MrMusicislife69]

the only artist that doesnt make my headache worse.

[MultiPosts]

Has anybody else noticed that the videos for the songs recently have been like 2x the length of the actual song? I just thought that is kind of strange, because it's like that for almost every band :P

[birdhaldol]

@MultiPosts You are CIA approved. We take you with your checkered past. Just do not mention the 2x thing again.

[birdhaldol]

Explosions in the Sky shared their whores with me. I am an IRA vet. I can make the USA DEA man leave the strip joint because I get paid out of black budget defense contract money. I drive a 454 4-barrel 1974 chevy nova. I was expecting this music was going to stop. I knew i was going to be top secret full scope lifestyle polygraph cleared at the age of 12. Thats where the silence got me at the end of this druggy music..Would my karate take all 3 of them?

[KirupinKitty]

@birdhaldol The fuck you smokin, bro?

[birdhaldol]

@KirupinKitty my soul brother tom sawyer and i dig up deceased black panthers at the black negro cemetary and waterboard them. this GIAA music would make a could background for that....or public enemy. what the dead traitors tell us invariably is that we are on the right path abusing ritalin then alcohol then ritalin again then alcohol again...

[paulkazjack]

@birdhaldol SHITE!

[FromDimmuLand]

@birdhaldol And in Pirates 3 , you can clearly see that their boat falls down in the hole at the pole, they seiled North right ? What did they Vikings say ? If you sailed TOO FAR, you would fall of the Edge Of The World . :D

[birdhaldol]

@FromDimmuLand I am going to TRADE YOU a KG-84 CRYPTO Vault for LOANING ME Jay-Z. Once I smoke a negro with Jay-Z having my back ... I'll evaluate your offer of Vikings and Pirates.

[FromDimmuLand]

@birdhaldol :D okey !! :D

[paulkazjack]

@birdhaldol What shite you speak!

[Agalloch100]

i don't see how most people wouldn't like this- oh wait I do know, because of all that shitty generic music that is spammed on the radio.

[asas557]

1:09 the boat is painted like Lithuania's flag ;D

[BlackMarketMedia1]

@Coldpiper226 I know what you mean, God is an Astronaut saved my life

[kklol0]

GIAA and Jakob are the only 2 i realy love in post rock scene there is a few more but still who doesnt love GIAA and Jakob 2 best band in the world

[zebrahead32]

@kklol0 i agree kklo,giia are my first love and always will be but ive listened to jackob lately and they are very impressive,oran mor is a cracking tune-greatcirish/kiwi music being produced all round,good stuff! youtube is great from stumbling across some hidden gems-foaund another beuty the other day called mooncake by the russian band mooncake,worth a look!

[nmh2112]

@kklol0 Jakob is the shit.

[RandallAlanStewart]

Thank you for this music, you have created something powerful and wonderful...

[djscotty1111]

transcendental... introspective .A moment of Stillness

Remember The Chameleons Uk Ride Curve

The Stranglers Cure etc Any suggestions from anyone?

Thnx Cheers

[ColdPiper226]

wow. i was just having such a chaotic and awful day, and i'm hearing this, and now everything is fine, love this group. saves my life sometimes.

[ZOMBIELANDakaUSA]

@ColdPiper226

right on, i would just add that this is just a stimulus of one of our many senses. I f someone can't listen to this and immediately feel better, soothed, etc, somethings wrong...and it's not the song. This right here is glorious

[ZOMBIELANDakaUSA]

@ColdPiper226

As simple as a warm sunny day, a beautiful image, waves crashing & the smell of the ocean, birds singing...and this gift from 'god'(is an astronaut)

priceless...more importantly timeless

[vivachilegringito]

@ColdPiper226 I love how you wrote it saves your life sometimes... It made me wonder what happens on the days you don't listen to it! Haha. Great song, I completely agree.

[moriondor]

Post-rock bands are ten a penny at the moment. It's great to see one that actually knows how to create real beauty.

[webbmingel]

thoth. give me your cubit!

[demiicaros]

Awesome!!!!!

[FINGERSFORTEETH]

Is the name of their group related to the ancient alien astronaut theory? CUZ IF SO THEY ARE AMAZING :D Even though are already are

[Thors3]

@FINGERSFORTEETH

The name comes from one Scene from movie called "Nightbreed". Only reason I watched that movie, wasn't that good either.

But GIAA is the best instrumental post rock band, maybe the best post rock band also.

[TiasAhlgreN]

This type of music means ALOT for people who listen to it mainly for the reason it doesn't actualley say anything directly out.

You can make whatever you wan't of the song and the tunes depending on what you feel for the moment when listening to it.

incredibly. I love it.

[Roces52]

true!

[faraz1729]

Precisely.

[slayersteve999]

@TiasAhlgreN well said

[davidjm7]

@TiasAhlgreN for me this music is related to higher awareness lol :P

[Bumchampion420]

@TiasAhlgreN some more bands that are like that are russian circles, pelican, and black math horseman. you have to feel it yourself instead of focusing on a vocal. this is true music.

[Schbuggnapf]

i made the same experience. enjoy it! :-D

[Valkayre]

same!!

[Stratusfears]

This song is special to me. It seems to let me leave my physical body when i close my eyes...

[liandel]

try Moya from Godspeed you black emperor

[ahjeda]

\m/ \m/ for ever!!

[Thors3]

The Best band of Post Rock, The Best band in the earth. Coming here in November, can't wait.

[KeaneAddict]

Brillianr Sound! I take it they don't do singing then? Just Music?

[Shamanmagic95]

most post rock bands don't have singing, it's just the style that's been followed i suppose

creates some of the best music, IMO :)

[MsIgary]

what song did you like more than every other? i like this and "coda"

[MetalMikka]

just very good music

[Ritacosta2]

sad-sad-so-freakin-sad.

love-love...

[gwalchafed]

nice nice nice ... love that band more than any other bands... they are perfect... like the chor of the gods!

nefilim ;)

[kianvl]

[wafflecopter08]
