  • I came here because i used to listen to Thursday and Envy! And they still kick ass!

  • I came here because the video looks like Limbo :|

  • Who directed the music video called "In Silence".

  • I came for who knows why years ago and come back because the song is good...

  • This song is so peaceful B)

  • Amazing :D

  • i dont understand the video im not hating on it just confused at the start i was like oh its about a forest then mabey its about him trying to get an ax then i was like wwwwttttttffffffffff when he started killing?

  • @TheBlackHoodie Its about how the chance to be evil takes over in people. The trees = All the dead people around us.

    The one with the axe = A man who found a way to be evil and took the chance.

    The bats = Everyone who stops and stares, but doesn't help

    The children are what gets inprinted onto the new generation.

  • what a band!

  • Wtf...reminds me of limbo

  • minecraft?!

  • @070erwin lol k so ur the only one that wont thumbs up:)hehe

  • @UhYoUaReDeAd i thumbed u up anyways XD

  • @070erwin l0l misspelled thumbs

  • I feel like this video describes my life. Im hopelessly chasing my dreams and the things I cant have until they begin to kill me from the inside. Its best to know when something is no longer worth fighting for. Nonetheless its a great song even if it has no lyrics.

  • @DAL3294 Awhh :/

  • the only reason im listening to this song is because i watched OpTiC H3CZ montage and used shazam to figure what the song was :)

  • Does anyone else notice the King Arthur reference when the box thing tries to pull the ax out from the tree stump?

  • @Bakersfieldsucks777 the trying of being superior to others by getting the thing that makes you the king.

  • Epic Box came back!

  • this is extremely loneliness , 

  • Comment removed

  • hey guys go to mp3rocket (.com) Download mp3 rocket and it has all kinds of songs plus thursday- in silence! It is free and has alot of unpopular songs unlike other programs

  • they copied Smosh boxman.

  • like this if u came here cuz of optic hecz

  • This song is much better than any song in the world. The musc today is just techno, I want more music like this today.

  • @TheCoseyPancakeMix actually i love trance/electro/house/dubstep/D­rum n bass

    because they are amazing to me,i can appreciate other kinds of music

    like this one,or old school hip hop etc

    but yeah im just sayin u know ;)

  • @070erwin Yea i understand, but I like songs like these much better. I don't have something againts good techno or good hip hop, but I think that some of the populare artists today just make songs that aren't that good as these classics, as I call them. Good that you tell me your opinion. :-)

  • @TheCoseyPancakeMix thnx man ;)

  • kinda scary :___:

  • Everything thinks they know what the video is about. Stfu and listen to the awesome music.

  • IT'S THE BOX MAN!!!

  • Whats the meaning of this video ? i love the band soo sooo sooo much !!!!!!!!!x

  • This video expresses the shadow of the soul, which means the ignorance and evil that man is capable of doing. indicates that blackness is called "dark night of the soul" that could herald the knowledge, and after the fear is violence. So it is in nature and is so deep in human nature.

  • what do we call this type of music? i love music like this but i don't know what they're called. it's depressing and sounds good at the same time, something like radiohead.

  • @jembalang42 this is actually an instrumental from an "emo" band...im not sure where to find more like this...i come accross stuff like this accidently and im always affraid im missing out on something this good somewhere else

  • @pho3nix try This Will Destroy You

  • @TheSolarCompromise especially burial on presido bank, that song has gotten me through so much

  • @pho3nix

    iliketrains - "rook house for bobbie" any of MONO's stuff, sigur ros is amazing too... it's post-rock. well this song is actually post-hardcore. it's expiremental type music. not very popular because most of the worlds population just isnt deep into music and they dont understand how these types of songs can affect our lives

  • wow one of the video i had Favorited for this got removed gay

  • thumbs up if hecz sent u here

  • @DudeThatsFano he did but dont ask for thumbs up. not cool

  • grande

  • omg so good

  • ATTENTION TROLLS: This isn't a time to Troll.

    I dare you to sit in the city, sit down, and listen to this song. You WILL start to cry.

  • @ITSaTRAP47

    nice analogy. 

  • this video is fucking moving. the symbolism is just unheard of.

  • Don't get what the video means ?:(

  • Love it PERIOD

  • 9 peeps are deaf

  • I love this video; It reminds me of that scary scene in To Kill a Mockingbird.

  • this in in a optic montage

  • Why do people get so emotional over this song. Just a song..A good song.

  • @Commentations oh suck a dick, and music is never just music, it is life, also this isn't a song dicktard, songs are sung.

  • @DJCa1eb See? Your getting emotional....Emotionally stressed. Boohoo. I made a mistake on the definition of a word. Music isn't life to me, but seing your name, I dunno. I don't get all emotional and crying and figuring out the answer to life when I hear some good music. I listen because it sounds good, not because it's "Life"

  • @Commentations QQ troll.

  • @DJCa1eb How the FUCK AM I A TROLL? Because I said my opinion and asked a question? Your the one who told me to suck a dick because of my opinion? Your one fucked up loser. Some damn hippie who tells me to suck a dick over some music.

  • @Commentations Lets point out the facts of why you are a troll,

    1) You type in all capitals

    2) You flame on music videos

    3) You don't even know proper definitions of words when you try to make an argument.

    4) You always type something negative.

    5) You like penis but are homophobic.

    Troll, go back to your bridge.

  • @DJCa1eb Get a life, you fucking fat nut. Who cares if I'm negative, besides a whiny little loser who thinks he's all cool. Fag, go back to your mom.

  • @Commentations lolololololol Fail troll, fail. You are the fat one, I went to your page, first things I see is you are a gamer, which doesn't mean you are fat, but most gamers are, next thing I see is your favorite show is Man Vs. Food. Yep. Also you play Call of Duty which right there signifies you are not a good gamer and you just follow what everyone else thinks is cool because I am guessing you play on console, only console gamers are SUPER noob, PC gamers play everything but CoD is bad.

  • @DJCa1eb dude, I agree with the other guy, you're a loser... now both of you stop being little girls, comments in this video are supposed to be ABOUT the video itself, not videogames...

  • @fgcarva1 Troll.

  • @DJCa1eb Doesn't matter what you call me, shut the hell up and listen to the music, that's all that matters...

  • @fgcarva1 troll

  • @DJCa1eb "Console gamers are SUPER NOOB", "PC gamers play everything but CoD is bad" troll.

  • Comment removed

  • look around how many of you ever step out of your BOX!!!!!!!!!!

  • i don't know. you may be going too deep in this whole thing. to me, it just made me "WTF" over it....... sorry if I don't see the symbolism......

  • gosh this is freekey, considering this is actually going to happen, well everything exept the people in boxes that is lol...

  • when things arent as they seem, they can take over the best, and most real things. or they can change the life of one lost soul forever to make it great.

  • this video is actually about the dark side of human nature and how sometimes wickedness overtakes innocence especially when given the oppurtunity. thats what was attempted by this video.

  • @bearslam From your view yes, but people have different opinions so it's basically more vague than actually attempting.

  • @bearslam Sounds like the essay on Lord of the Flies that I had to write in my sophmore AP english class. haha

  • @bearslam You're right. I'm pretty sure about half of the people that commented on this would go on a killing spree if given the opportunity to do so without any consequences whatsoever.

  • @bearslam Those aren't humans though they are boxes

  • @it8nky0u they represent humans

  • @bearslam True

  • What album is this off of?

  • @MrGbtanner Thursday - Envy

  • two of my favourite bands merged in this album. maybe next up would be with mogwai/sigur ros/spike jonze? o.O

    :):):)

  • Interesting approach my friend! Thank you jeanne606 for sharing.

  • oh man, i really want some high quality stills of this now.

  • Ah this is awesome!!!

  • 3:01 WTF!!! xDxDxD

  • I understand that vid. !

  • If you read some theories previously in the comments you'll understand what I'm about to talk about.

    If you consider the Robots to be signifying businesses and/or technologies that abuse natural resources; notice that the larger one is zombie like - as if it were directed, while the other, smaller one follows in confusion. In a convient area the larger one cuts off the lesser. All the while being regulated by the future generation with complete awarity of what they're doing.

  • this video is fucked up, i can't understand the meaning of it. anyone wanna tell me?

  • 2:19

  • yo on 2:18 you see the box's face like all mad

  • 2:17

  • 2:16

  • my brothers band might play with them. maybe.

  • I wish this would have been released on Common Existence. Im having trouble finding the Thursday/Envy split.

  • humans controlling machines and hurting each other while stepping all over nature's innocence for our future generations

  • wow thats amazingly deep

  • Nicely explained, it helped alot to understand it.

  • Can anyone tell me which album this song is from? I can't figure it out D:

  • It's from the split with Envy.

  • i guess its kinda about technology destroys mother earth.....great song

  • thursday makes me proud to be from new jersey

  • Me too!

  • that is some deep dark personal shit.

  • seconded

  • i love sigur ros

  • yeah thursday and sigur ros are my favorite bands ever.

  • like my brother!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the same taste..

    I love Poison the well and deftones...

  • you should try envy they had a split with thursday in japan try the song a warm room its on youtube and quite incredible

  • a warm room is a really awesome song, got all teary eyed when they played it live!

  • this video gives me the chills.

  • Will Thursday ever get the fucking grammy they deserve, maybe never. amazing band.

  • gotta remember, grammies don't recognize talent, they didn't recognize Led Zepplin back in the day, with bands like this kicking around, I'm sure thursday and others deserving won't either, though they will get their respected in due time while most grammy winners will be stuck in a time where they were top of the world but have become nothing.

  • Wise words, thanks. Look at Deftones, they started making horrible music after they got a grammy so, you are right.

  • just *woO_Oow*

  • dude you rock!!!!!!!

  • @itsatrap47

    How the hell did you figure that out?

  • just sort of is obvious, i aspire to be a pyscologest so I sub-conciously analized it

  • what i guess is so strange and excellent about this video is that this is the kind of stuff Kerrang! and MTV wouldn't air because it has no commercial footage of the band or any vocals.

    It also introduces mainstream folllowers to the amazing world of post-rock!

  • call me a fag but i dont want every idiot to listen to post-rock and it being mainstream...

    imagine the average madonna, britney spears etc. pop fan listens to the really pretentious and "intelligent" music that post-rock is... no, that would destroy the whole genre.

  • IDK where you live, but the post-rock scene has already been ruined (At least where I live.)

  • germany, no one i met knew post-rock here.. just one dude knew sigur ros playing post-rock

  • It'd be better if no-one knew it here in illinois. It was a good music scene at first, but then EVERYONE started playing it. All the good bands moved on, and now all we have are a bunch of bad poser bands.

  • The symbolism of this video is great, the trees are all dead showing our neglect of the eniornment, the boxes wore boots to protect themselves from the white leaves which symbolize the purity of nature and the grime that we have become used to, the smoke is basic pollution, and the box strugling with the axe resembles our struggle against morales and love for our species, then you realizes that the box that kills is dressed up showing success isnt happiness and idols arent always what they seem

  • Woah, where did you come up with that? Did you read about it? makes sence though. I wonder what the deal is with the two kids at the end.

  • Good call. For some reason, i got a sense that they were trying to portray a loss of innocence with the children but, your analisys seems to be more accurate.

  • @ITSaTRAP47 those are some powerful words bro, have you ever thought of public speaking?

  • @ITSaTRAP47 oh now i get it..

  • @ITSaTRAP47 Wow...what a noob interpretation based on probably your gay umtard political view on global warming...sorry for the insult it needed to be said....anyhows the video is clearly not up for debate in meaning the robots are humans meandering aimlessly as he follows the leaf which symolizes happiness...which is on the path all around him...once he gets the axe which is power he uses it very wrong selfish human ways

  • @mountainmooney Whilst your interpretation is also a good one it's purely speculation, not actual fact. Only the producer and the band know the true meaning of this, and I don't think they will release that to the public because I think that all the theories that we collectivly think of are worth way more than just one. It creates a video with multiple understandings that depend how deep you look, much like The Matrix. So it's fairly ignorant of you to consider your opinion the only correct one.

  • @ITSaTRAP47 nerd

  • @ImJustDayDreaming Assuming proper education and a good job is criteria for a nerd then I guess so. Assuming that you're saying those are negative things we can assume you have none of those. Best of luck at whatever service job you chose to follow in life. I'm sure that you're not going to have the same outlook on life when your family lifes in a sub-par neighbourhood with poor education and no hope of a decent education/job all because you took advantage of your sheltered suburban life.

  • @ITSaTRAP47 bro, i dont think i needed that long of a fucking explanation.

  • @ITSaTRAP47 i love you, i always have said how deep the matrix is, i know its hoaky and cheesy to some, but those movies have made me think so much about humans and empathy all that stuff. i love the matrix

  • @ITSaTRAP47 well said! lol now i finally know what the meaning of the song is

  • @ITSaTRAP47 and that means the little box?

    (And you said that now kills gave the killing)

  • @ITSaTRAP47 but in the end leave the children what does that mean?

    (Apart from them being the boxes)

  • @ITSaTRAP47 It's open to interpretation. That's yours. Also, shut up.

  • @ITSaTRAP47 OMFG! someone one actually has a reasonably logical answer for the video that is amazing!

  • @ITSaTRAP47 can i have some of your pod?

  • @ITSaTRAP47 nice interpretation but I think this video is very ambiguous. I agree with what you said but I have also thought of other reasons. I don't think this video has one clear meaning.

  • @ITSaTRAP47 Your comment just made me love this video even more :)

  • This is definitely their best music video.

  • this is good fuckin good.. the best so far.. hands down thursday..

  • It has so much feeling in this song. You can feel the sadness... The joy... Everything... It makes you cry and scream of happyness at the same time....

  • nope.

  • You should listen to the UK band Stella Dawes, brilliant band.

  • wow. this is awesome. weird video.

  • holy shit havent heard new stuff from them in like 6 years, they've progressed quite a bit

  • best thursday song, by far

  • This video and song are absolutely amazing.

  • holy crap, this is amazing, isnt part of this on kill the house lights?

  • lovin it <3

  • i can't describe it. It's very powerful :]]] I listen to it all over again

  • this song just perfect!

  • wtf ?

    bahh.. A beautifull song (H)

  • This song is just great!!!!!!

  • woahhhhhhhh awesome box!

  • this is like sigur ros rip off to da max.
