  • this makes me want to spend six days at the bottom of the ocean

  • this is exactly how it feels to SCUBA dive. it makes you feel like you're back where you belong. at peace, in love, in awe and completely at home

  • Post-Rock is the fucking future of real music.

  • @atmosphericjubilancy

    I'm not hating at all, but let the music take you on a journey.

    Listen with your heart & mind not just your ears.

  • Wow, great title

  • This shit ^

    is THE shit

  • Forget all this weird dreaming remembering shit you guys are talking about. I mean that's cool and all, but if you like to smoke weed, you need to listen to this song and press the speakers to your head. Be smart don't have the volume all the way up oh and resting the back of your head on the sub if you have one makes it even better.

  • Put this as your alarm clock, I swear to god you will be fired from work within the week

  • this song says everything without saying anything

  • all of there music sounds the same. great but too alike

  • are any of you guys high?

  • Explosions in the sky makes me not hate my ex so much. It helps me to understand.

  • These guys should do a collaboration with Buckethead! =)

  • what genre of music is this?

  • @lillovedoctor post-rock or insrumental rock

  • @remm55 thanks

  • this is how it feels to smoke weed

  • this is what love sounds like

  • Watch "MMA To have heart speech and video" Its got this track over it which is how i found this AMAZING piece of music. Really, watch it. It's quality!

  • this song dedicated Koursk's submariners who died in 2000

  • damn......this song just takes me back to middle school when everything was awesome

  • @N05h00b135 you peaked too early then

  • @Jturcios9 nahh. middle school was just the age of innocence being introduced to weed and other shit. those were the days

  • @N05h00b135 Wait til you're out of college. you'll be wishin the same thing

  • I love listening to this while working on my Chinese homework. Each character seems to flow out of my hand effortlessly.

  • my favourite from explosions from the sky, they are amazing!!

  • great music for freediving videos :D

  • simply a great song.

  • Great music to longboad skateing to.

  • THIS is what rock music should sound like.

  • this song is stunning :( i remember all about my past...

  • headache inducing anxiety collides with the worry of the unforeseeable future in which I can't see and my words get jumbled and tossed in my reckless head with nonsense spewing from my eyes in a vortex of fear that's like a cycle... like a universe because it doesn't end - it's infinite, unpredictable, sporadic, it makes no sense to me at all. It won't make sense to you either, because you all see my face as an object devoid of what I see in myself... Call it craziness. I call it normal.

  • @ovroyalty dude, that's gotta be the best comment I have ever read on here. Ever.

  • i like this music, but im depressed and this takes me down deeper so i should really stop listening to this :/

  • @hrkihrkihrs this band makes music to try to show that "the earth is not a cold dead place" and that you WILL hit all time lows but shit happens and you take the good in life!

  • Comment removed

  • This will always be one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.

  • Each one of their song's is a spiritual experience.

  • so stoned right now!

  • there are a lot of positive, influential people in this world. same way there's a lot of Light to be seen in the sea of shadows we call our home. there are many things to be taught, many teachers that are wrought in clothes made of our eyes. But its best to set things straight in your head. Know where you stand. Even if you're not standing there. Know what you stand for, FEEL IT. and then.... look at where you're standing again....

  • They're so underrated...

  • I first learned of this song from my ex. Every time I listened to it it reminded me of her in the greatest ways. And I for one, am glad we broke up. Since now all it does is show me how great of musicians EITS are. :)

    /justgotoversomeoneandneedstot­elltheworld

  • The first time I listened to this song, I was blown away by how fitting the title was... The music really paints an underwater scene in your head. Pretty amazing.

  • I'm sad listening to this knowing that EITS will never produce something this great again.

  • I Didnt Know God Played Music...

  • Omg speechless !!! Love this song !! <3 It can fit every emotion you have inside <3 LOVE IT !!!

  • i wish everyone who listens to explosions in the sky feels the way i do -- that they feel so happy to be living on this earth in that moment, breathing steadily, and thinking about everything that makes them feel like the earth is not a cold dead place.

  • this song was bomb on last nights show up in san diego at soma!  it was beast, way better then this version thats for sure!, so much harder and such live ^w^

  • This song speaks to every kind of emotion, every race, religion and culture, Man, woman or child. It seems this music wasn't made by humans but a power so much greater. A force that connects us as inhabitants of earth mankind, animals and plants alike.

  • @Fazelhoff holy shit mann ur fuggn rite

  • this song makes me wanna build something out of nothing

  • @4x4Explorer Modest Mouse reference for the win. Always for the win.

  • @4x4Explorer I've felt that way before...

    Until I heard This SONG again...

  • @4x4Explorer Play this song whilst playing Minecraft?

  • @4x4Explorer ROFL

  • @4x4Explorer "First there was nothing, and then the nothing turned itself inside out." - Sun Ra

  • @4x4Explorer Try Minecraft

  • The street stops here brought me here.

  • almost fell asleep

  • @BrownieTroop59

    It's because you have no taste.

  • @l33tpwnzord No, because EITS makes people do certain things, this guy almost fell asleep, while others react to these songs differently. EITS does many things to many different people.

  • @l33tpwnzord Because this is fucking hash music. He did not say, that it was boring.

  • @l33tpwnzord Or he has already heard enough generic post-rock (or has heard actually remarkable post-rock, it could be either).

  • Very moving!!

    New Inspiration?... search for:

    The Inituition - Open Your Frozen Heart And Start Living Again

    Very moving post-rock song!

  • Why are people calling this "Post Rock"?...... Back in the early eighties i was a young teenager listening to Pink Floyd's Live at Pompeii.. Dark Side of the Moon..and Animals.... back then we just called it "PSYHCODELIC"... As in "HEAD TRIP".....

  • @rainmechanic I'll agree with you there, I don't understand why they call it "Post Rock"... Along with Pink Floyd they are kind of psychedelic/atmospheric rock.

  • The first half is tentative. Slowly diving into the deep reaches of the ocean. Exploring the reefs, and taking in the ambience. The second half is more like floating against the currents of the water until you surface and sail against the wind. I love post-rock, it makes me dream, dream, dream.

  • ABSOLUTELY AMAZING

  • @Inucoful i agreee!! :D xD

  • @markandlexieforever bebe, sabes que não fui eu que escrevi esse comment?

  • @Inucoful bebe, how could i known? but i agree! and by the way i'm awesome and you're just a little awesome (i know you want to be awesome,but for now you're just a little awesome,ok?) love you (JK, I DONTTTTTTTTTT! <3<3 AWKARD........... :s)

  • Let your mind run free when you listen to EITS... the places you can go are amazing

  • this should be an actual form of meditation...

  • @RcFunUpAndBelow I meditate to EITS several times a week!

  • You don't just listen to this song, you EXPERIENCE it.

  • If you like the guitar effects of this piece, check out New Order - Elegia

    This link is the short file More which features a small version of it.

  • it's like my body goes into an instant relaxation, then my mind is cleared, my soul is refreshed.. and iv never felt so content by one piece of music.

    its revival to the body and mind.

  • Thanks for uploading this one and introducing me to these guys mate.. ;)

  • Ten people couldn't escape from the bottom of the ocean. They were there longer than six days.

  • thumbs up if gorillaproductions brought you here.

  • Just wanted to say.

    I compete in Muay Thai Kickboxing. And when I listen to these guys when I train. I try to push myself to the ultimate limit I picture myself being the only person in that moment in time and that I have nothing to prove to anyone.

    I say to myself, you are worth all the pain, youre worth all the effort, you will be the greatest one day.

    It just makes me forget about all the little things that for some reason we care so much about.

  • @DionMurderfuck Good stuff! I do pro wrestling training and I put Explosions In The Sky (And Pink Floyd) on for an hour right before training starts to get into that state of mind! It works every time. Just shows that music can motivate you and keep you going in life rather than just entertainment.

  • ill be a fan for life....thats for fuckin sure!

    melt my heart and shred up the meaning of what i thought was real..

  • thanks pandora

    

  • this song doesnt need comments to explain how good it is nuff said

  • The build up from 7:00 to the end is so badass.

  • this song is on friday night lights, my favorite movie :D

  • just awesome

  • @TheOldTot

    Music is very powerful.

  • This will always be my favorite song by Explosions In The Sky. Whenever I listen to it, I think so deeply and psychologically. During the 8 minutes of this song, I imagine that mankind can coexist peacefully with one another without any dispute whatsoever.. This song sort of gives me hope for that, even though I know world peace can never truly be achieved.

  • @FuckingNaziWhore bascially a true heaven, utopia.

  • @FuckingNaziWhore sorry dude listening to a song doesn't make you a saint just like it doesn't solve any problems. if you want to contribute to the world, listening to a song isn't actually doing anything

  • a song to reflect to

  • They Play This on A Discovery Channel Jingle

  • Yeah word up guys i mean im totally feeling the same because i watched this because of a lionel messi video and now its like ahh ok but it goes better with the messi video maybe because there's football in it, I hope I fit in with this crew :S

  • @99elverange haha ... can you send me the link to the messi video? I want to see it as well...

  • No doubt this band is incredibly talented and has the best instrumentals I have ever heard, but seriously look at what most of you are typing. "This is more than just music" you sound so cliche, I know I am being a massive troll but all you care about is making an eloquent comment in order for others to "like" it, and if music actually changed your life you are pathetic.

  • @TheOldTot i agree with you that it does sound cliche but i truly believe that music is powerful enough to make a lasting impression on someones outlook on life. and someones outlook on life can affect their behavior significantly so in that way it could be "life changing."

    just because something is cliche doesn't make it false.

  • @TheOldTot I'm not trying to be an ass about this well maybe i am don't know anymore. Anyways sometimes music does change poeple's lives doesn't mean you're pathetic or amazing it just makes you you. I know your thinking like i care & thats just it who cares. i dont that's why i just smile and say "Sure". Becuase i know that this world will never change just like this smile. It will never change so just smile and say "Sure". Can you do that with a smile?

  • @TheOldTot I completely agree with you. This music is great, but people are just being extremely melodramatic and making claims that this song is like a whole different world and changes they way they think. These people need to wake up.

  • Who would have thought one of the best songs didn't have words? EITS tells us so much without saying anything. EITS has changed the way I look at and listen to music. No more Hip-Hop for me.

  • Explosions in the sky helps you focus on what is important in that moment. after a song you have your head back on straight

  • 2:32 late night at the beach, and we kissed right at that moment of the song. it was amazing.

  • If you guys like this...check out Quantic - Time is the Enemy. Another good joint similar to this.

  • This is real music, every song tells a story better than any song with word. I get the same feeling when I read a book that was made into a movie

  • i found my new favorite band

  • Easily one of my favorite EITS songs. This alongside "It's Natural to Be Afraid" are musical bliss.

  • the number 8 and 9 are holy in my religion/belief. right now this video has 888 likes, this plus the song just made my day

  • sitting next to a lake (with your best friends), watching it while the sun goes down slowly and listen to this song - that's what I did today; it was awesome! :)

  • You offended Me~~~~~~~~~

  • This is always in my mind whenever I go into the Ocean. 

  • So I have goosebumps all over my arms - I don't know if it's because of the cold weather or because of this music.

  • @beginnerwinner its the music!!!! You know thattt :D

  • I Didn't God Played Music.

  • 10 people sank and never reached the surface after 6 days.

  • Not to be emo or anything, but the part that starts around 2:00 and gets into the louder part around 2:30 absolutely personifies the frustrations and pain that I'm feeling right now. I've never been good at expressing myself and this song does it all without saying a word.

  • 9 minutes in journey.

    Every time its different.

  • love this, found out bout explosions in the sky by watching HBO 24/7

  • MOTIVATING! COMPELLING! EXPRESSIVE!

    Love listening to this when writing music, really awakens me!

    I LOVE THIS!

  • This song says everything without saying anything..

  • @ovroyalty Yet at the same time, it says absolutely nothing by saying everything.

  • this is music.

  • I guess it's just best to remind yourself that it's not such a 'messed up' world. Take this song as proof that there's a lot of beauty and goodness around us. Explosions In The Sky do their bit to make the world a better place. The least we can do is smile once in a while to try our best to illuminate someone's world; even if it's only for one moment.

  • inspiration. they're doing it right

  • You can tell they are honestly progidal, every one of their songs takes you to a whole new place. Like this song, it felt like a lonely beginning leading to self-realization. They have their sound to perfection- the guitar riffs have a distant effect to them, proving to me that their creative expression is fully exercised when they make music. It's refreshing to hear such expressive talent.

  • @killuhhqueen9 "The guitar riffs have a distant effect". Its known as delay, and reverb. Don't get me wrong, these guys are incredible, I love them. Just sounded like you were rambling a little.

  • @Arachnidius lol, i know what it is, i play guitar, it just sounded like the right words. and yes, i do ramble :)

  • are you guys serious

  • left with animals known for leprosy had a gnome protecting me - no one detected me - so i went to sleep - finally - now who i find is me - with a brighter smile

    i turned twice around in this whiter realm shaped like a spider web i turned twice around - this lifeless town is thriving dead i reach for thoughts inside my head now my eyes are red i prepare for my final breath

    my cells expand the size of galaxy's how can size exist

    what time is it?

  • Who could possibly dislike this???

  • So happy to have discovered this band, wish I could've found it sooner, will now make up for lost time. Such beautiful music.

  • I was in search for a documentary,

    Instead I came across this ........ And I'm very glad I did, this is beautiful :)

  • Explosions in the Sky is the soundtrack to my life.

  • these guys and nujabes might be all i need for music

  • @jackandjill45 try No More Soundtrack by Sugar Plum Ferry!

  • @jackandjill45 nice

  • This is really amazing music, but did anybody ever think about how long it would take to listen to an album if every song is 8+ minuets?? OH MY!

  • @whitey4499 It's4.3 hours ;)

  • that lead part never leaves my head

  • If you like Explosions in the Sky, God is an Astronaut, Helios, Hammock, Rachel's, Goldmund, Eluvium, Boards of Canada, Unwed Sailor, Four Tet, and other similar artists, you might like my music. I'd love some support. :)

  • This song just get's me in a cocktail of mood, happiness, melancholy, nostalgia, sadness, and so much more that can't be explained but felt.

  • some of you really needs to be send to war. 10 of you.

  • @HigherOXYD

    Sorry, we definitely listened to Explosions in the Sky, while listening to explosions in the sky, while smoking some hookah in Iraq. So sending those 10 to war won't solve all that much.

  • @redletter45 Good lord, you burn! ;D

  • @HigherOXYD (Some of) you really need to be sent to school.. to learn grammar. You.

  • @quailchow Ok. I'm not right.

  • I thought about explosions at the bottom of the ocean for six days after I heard this masterpiece :)
