  • love the album cover

  • how is it even possible to dislike this song

  • Listening to this for the first time, I think to myself how familiar it seems. And yet I had never heard it before. This song is designed to feel familiar, like an old dream you once had. Like someone you met long ago, a distant memory.

  • i swear this is in a movie!!!!!! its SO FAMILIARRR

  • Why is the other LIKE button upside down? ='(

  • breathtaking. <3

  • makes me wanna...fuckin ..die...

  • how could someone not like this

  • If you're a fan of post rock/ambient music, please listen to my sample I have up. I'm starting to write in this genre, and I'd love some feedback.

  • 30 seconds into this song i forgot who i was, but by the time it ended i had found my true self

  • Amazing!

    

  • For ppl looking for music like this... may I recommend The Calm Blue Sea =o)

  • I dont understand how someone could dislike this, you deserve to get your ass raped by two tits in vasaline fucking a toaster.

  • How to dislike?

  • these guys deserve a grammy

  • sounds like explosions in the sky

  • I am enlisting into the United States Navy as an apprentice sailor in the pact program. I am going to work my butt of to become a Hm Corpsman. This song solidifies my resolve in the career path I have chosen.

  • Words cant describe the beauty in this song.

  • Pandora recommended this from Bon Iver for me:)

  • Ten people fell off the track.

  • This is fucking mind-blowing.

  • I think this song must've been divinely created. Here I am tonight, procrastinating writing a dramatic spoken word segment in an upcoming play. I turn on my writing music via Pandora and this is the first song that comes on. After I complete the project I decided go back and read it to this song. Surprise, surprise. The timing and swells synchronize perfectly. I've been trying music piece after music piece, royalty free mostly, and making my own... nothing felt right. Until now.

  • people who dislike this, clearly don't know what it's like to live.

  • this song always bring's tears to my eyes...as a philosophy major one of my favorite branches of philosophy is metaphysics (basically questioning reality)...this, and songs like it, serve as catalysts to me thinking about reality...and i shed tears because of the overwhelming amount of questions that come up when I listen to songs like this

  • @Flycutie100 TWDY's music is made so that you can emphasize on what you want it to be. While other artist strive to get there point across though there lyrics TWDY strives to create something that you can put in your own perspective. Unraveling your own stories while listening to this is what makes this so amazing.

  • my friend sent this t me and wants me to make a song to it.

    I've never been s pumped and excited.

    true work of art,.

  • @flycutie100 Please don't add lyrics. The idea of this music is to not use vocals.

  • amazing...

  • @lightm2 shut up.

  • just now heard of them, and i want their album and just listen to it while chilling in a tree, and then slowly rise up, then climb down and jog, and look around, the place where i grew up, and how it has all changed from when i was young, and how this world use to be so big, but now its just small you know there is something else out there,but you just cant see it physically, and its all around you, but you just dont know what it is, but will we ever know what it is? god???

  • Found my funeral song and new love.. Post rock is so deep.

  • i think i am really sad while listening to this ... but i enjoy every second of this song and i don;t know why ...

  • What instrument is playing at the beginning? It ends roughly at 2:20ish

  • @NatalieKaulitz78 thats called a guitar

  • @akahlau

    yeah thank u

  • Everyone is commenting on how this song is uplifting(?), but I come to this song whenever I feel sad. It's a calming, necessary sad though. It's like a good cry or something. It doesn't make me feel happy, but it pacifies me.

  • @sakurabaka yeah. i agree

  • can't help but listen to this and think of the many memories i have collected over the past years weather they were good or bad. THIS IS REAL MUSIC! thank you guys for being just AWESOME muscians!

  • check out The Flight of Phanuel if you love this band. both send you to the moon!!

  • its a drug..

  • It's like I can't change the song it's keeping me here

  • I listened to this, and when it was done, I forgot who I was.

  • @hardcorexlemon Do I have permission to use that as an album title one day? "And When it was Done, I Forgot Who I Was"

  • @komatoran go for it :p

  • I lost my job, as I sit here wondering how I am going to pay my house payment this brings a light of happiness and clarity to my day, thank you They Will Destory You

  • beautiful...

    

  • This song should be what plays when you can't hear anything else. Theme music for the world.

  • @Paradigm6790 copy fail

  • @xfactor5492 Oh, it's wrong to take something excellent that someone said and reiterate it? Sorry, I didn't know there were cops on youtube. Come arrest me.

    

  • @Paradigm6790 On my way.

  • @xfactor5492 lol have fun

  • And I swear, in this moment, I feel infinite.

  • I'm sitting here, after a wonderful day of mountain biking and hanging with great people, Sitting here with my skullcandy skullchrusher headphones (amazing bass) and I'm just getting into post rock............. and this song it making tears of joy run down my face as I'm typing this. It's so wonderful :(

  • @TheAngryAumist It's making me so happy i can't spell right.

  • @TheAngryAumist so why didnt you say "ish macin mee toe appy i cnt spl rigt" ? lol jk i get what ur saying

  • @TheAngryAumist Shit, same here. Came across post rock a few months ago, but am now really starting to rediscover these bands. :) Really amazing stuff.

  • this song live really brings out that ebow guitar, i really need to find a high quality one that really showcases that, and you have the true essence of this song

  • Inspiring music to sleep to...

    Seemingly inspiring music to shit to....

    I want to listening to this kind of shit on shrooms.

  • For me this and EITS are pure drops of Americana. When I listen to this I feel as if being in the middle of the hot, arid desert, watching the sky, feeling the wind and the dry Earth, listening, just being.

  • woah... 99,000 views exactly :/ creepy :D

  • THIS WILL DESTROY YOU ARE AMAZING LIVE

  • nothing beats post rock

  • I can see everything... I am everything... and as Corrosive touch said this should replace the silence of the earth....

  • vote down ceverettsmith hes a fucking dick and his comment dosent deserve to be seen. safesafe.

  • Comment removed

  • @yoda12345678 He's lying... he's 20 -_-... what a loser.

  • 8 people have no imagination.

  • Like looking into a still pool and seeing the Universe reflected....

  • this + hookah = mega chill

  • i need a wee 

  • This music leads me into the universe. My consciousness flowing through the endless aether of infinity. Worlds are being born, worlds are dying, everything is simply flowing, and I get a front stage view of it all.

    PS: Yes, I'm baked.

  • There are life and death, love of whole Universe in this song.

    I would like to die listening to this.

    This song always make me cry. and i don't know what tears is that of: misery or happiness.

  • So interesting how it says "music only" cause shouldn't all music be like this? Give you rest, sounds that give you inspiration, give you hope, share your love, share your happiness? The only one way to do this is surpass our mouth, the limiting factor that holds all mankind back. We yell, we can't convey everything, we interpret, we selectively hear. But music over comes all that, and you go into a higher evolution. We are accending into something greater here people! thumbs up!!!

  • I don't know why you all feel depressed listening to this song it makes me feel great..

  • someone very depressed is playing this. trust me. I know.

  • one of the best post rock band i discovered recently

    Search "So above so below - Remembrance of things past"

    jus wanna share good post rock music!

  • does this song make u wanna cry? :(

  • Here I am again drunk on scotch listening to this beautiful song. Such an easy song to play. Such a hard song to perceive.

  • If these guys ever break up I will hunt them down and forcibly coerce them to start making music again.

  • Everytime I listen to This Will Destroy You's music, I feel as though it should replace the silence of the earth. I hope they know that.

  • People talk about death with this song. its not about death. Its about everything. and the struggle we go through each day. knowing this morality is upon us like nothing we can do. Its about hopelessness but at the same time having hope. At least thats the way I feel. The way music should be. Everything at once. 

  • @MrDenverRebel dude. im high

  • This brings me back to being at my grandfather's death bed, can't breathe but through a tube, dying a little every minute. Holding his hand as he passed. And that was it, I lost him. I go home, fall asleep, start dreaming about him, can't get him out of my head. It's been 4 years, and it feels like just yesterday that I got to sit on his lap and listen to him tell me a wise-tale, play catch with him, hunt with him, etc. I love so much. He will always be my hero...

  • @bobos245

    wow crybaby dong LOL!!!!1

  • @nightfield10 Hahaa, you cold-hearted dumbfuck. I'm not crying, it's called nostalgia, ever heard of it?

  • @bobos245 No. People that live under rocks dont know what that is.

  • @nightfield10 The only thing I can say is that you clearly lack the soul required to be on the same planet as this band and bobos245. I suggest you crawl back into whatever hole you came from and dont come out til you've grown a soul you shit-head...

  • @ChocolateTeaPot100

    Bro you mad aren't ya.

  • @nightfield10 No, I just dont have much respect for dick-heads....

  • @nightfield10

    there is something wrong with you...the mans grandfather died.

    im sorry that calling him a crybaby was your first reaction to his story..

    Something must have gone terribly wrong in life..for that i am sorry

  • @nightfield10 ...you're sick.

  • @ceverettsmith Respect man. Respect.

  • @ceverettsmith

    Then why does your profile say your 20? On videos you have viewed, you have commented with things that said otherwise about your age. Don't fake being a veteran. That's serious stuff man.

  • @ceverettsmith Looks to me like you're 20. It'd be cool if someone actually said that though..

  • @ceverettsmith Saying something like that, just to get likes... you sick person. It takes one click on your profile for people to see through your (rather shitty) facade.

  • Comment removed

  • @ceverettsmith You're a liar.  But I understand your point and agree that this song does carry remarkable emotion.

  • @ceverettsmith Past life memory???

  • @ceverettsmith you're 20, stop posing under fake personalities to get some likes and get a life

  • @ceverettsmith So you were 16 when the war ended?

    

  • @ceverettsmith What's wrong with you?

  • just gave my tallywaker a little tug after hearing this.

  • Favorite TWDY song. Favorite "post-rock" song. Favorite instrumental song. Possibly favorite song.

  • When I'm dangling on the edge, this helps me get through to the next day.

  • Anytime I find myself deep in thought I find myself listening to this band

  • This first thing I thought when I heard this song was, "It sounds like Explosions", followed by, "postrock is becoming too predictable", and then, "time to listen to some Godspeed".

  • i just saw this live in london and the impact this song has on you when its live is 100x more deep. litreally i have never been so blown away by a band live.

  • As darkness impedes on my bliss my hands ball to fists

    yet I cant help but feel that im made for this….

    This endless sorrow that casts others into the light so in a sense I guess this darkness shines bright

     but it still is what it is, a veil cast from sight

  • the chords that start ringing at around 2:19 in the song are soooo amazing, just blissful

  • I was listening to Porcupine Tree radio on Pandora when this came on. I'm now in love

  • Comment removed

  • this just destroyed me...

  • Height, width, depth

  • this is so beautiful<3

  • THIS SONG IS SICK BRUTHAA!!!!! THIS IS LIKE FUCKING SCREAMO YEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!­!!

  • ... Destroyed.

  • If you had been in a coma for 40 years and awoke to realize all you had loved is now gone, and everyone close to you has either passed away or forgotten you, this is what you would hear.

  • @TheTonald to follow that thought, Explosions in the sky (post-rock instrumental) has a song called first breath after a coma. if you haven't already, check it out

  • Comment removed

  • incredible song, it's a shame nobody else my age understands how amazing this really is..

  • i feel like i'm seventy two and the love of my life has just passed on and and all at once the grass all around my feet turns to ice and i just stand there as frost takes my hold of my body and i'm stuck and in the frost and ice forced to watch my love slowly disappear as the ice and the frost melt and the green grass takes it's form again for it is spring and it reminds me that we are no different then the seasons.

  • thankyou

  • That... Was Amazingly.. Shit

  • @WecsZ fuck you

  • @Oran95x1 Ahahahaa i was joking, i love this song.. just wanted to see peoples reactio :D

  • the days that sat infront of everything by braveyoung is also very good

  • When I hear this song I feel like Im playing it live in front of many people and I can feel the emotions of every single individual, triggering an adrenaline rush that brings tears down their faces knowing I feel the same way,

  • this is the most beautiful thing i have ever heard.... :) &&&& when i heard it i immediately felt Gods love for me :D

  • wow

  • the right way through life is tough and you will not be rewarded if you want it, the reward is knowing that you can do things correctly, proudly, elegantly, and remembering that only you can do them your way. Nobody can change that, not even you.

  • I fell asleep to this song...when I awoke I had tears in my eyes. I was crying this song makes you want to love anyone who has ever wronged you. Forgive them

  • blows my mind everytime

  • an epic musical journey straight into the heart of any emotion that may be plaguing your world at any particular moment. beautifully composed art. beginning to end.

  • at 2:40 explosion of emotions

  • this destroyed me.

  • I love post-rock, and these guys are definitely one of the best at doing it.

  • Great song, and thanks all for the suggestions. For other bands with music like this, check out:

    Saxon Shore

    Williamson

    William Orbit

    God Damn Electric Bill

    Enjoy the music

  • @highblur 65 Days of static and Russian Circles. Two of my favourite instrumental bands, but theyre progressive/Alternative rock. More a mix of up tempo with relaxed. but none the less highly inspiring.

  • i can't believe the power this song has had on me , its almost taken me into another place in my head, almost like another place iv never been before

  • Is it me or can you actually feel this song ...
