  • @storksforever2000

    What that sarcasm?

  • younger people of the generation. we all have the chance to change. lets stop the fighting amongst each other and care for one another. care for our children, care for our planet. prove that there is something good left in us all.

  • Thumbs up if you want this to be the soundtrack to your last few minutes.

  • @crownsedge

    Suicide by Star first..but this is a close second

  • @crownsedge Neah, I actually want "The end of the beginning" to be the soundtrack of my last minutes

  • @sofoclebeat I changed my mind since I posted that, I want "New Years End" to be the soundtrack to my last few minutes.

  • @crownsedge I want it to be the soundtrack of my entire life

  • believeing in peace in this society is like believeing in ignorance for in an inherantly flawed political system not to mention a system without any morality and the fact we have been trying to anihalate ourselves from the begining of mankind peace is the most ignorant thing we can ask for all we can do is hope we survive

  • @slavenation2015 its been that type of thinking from the beginning of mankind that has kept us in this kind of society where we see wars and killing, change the conscious change the world

  • es la unica rolota ke me encanta hasta ke me haga viejita me va a gustar toda my life

  • Has anyone noticed that you don't get alot (if any) fucked up comments on these less popular songs?

  • Man why do we have to fuck ourselves over so much :/ Awesome song, shows we still have a long ass way to go for peace.

  • @Agalloch100 Sorry mate, but well blow ourselves off the face of the earth before we ever achieve world peace.

  • Great video. I especially like the clip at the end with the ww2 russian katyusha trucks (?).. says something very sinister about our capacity to destroy ourselves.

  • Did I miss the part where this video was about creationism/evolution? If not, then why are there two guys down there discussing such matters?

  • god is an austrian

  • hahaha

  • Science and religion,the truth is inbetween.

  • @FutureGhosti "and" ?

  • God is a Dinosaur

  • My favourit musik ist frum them i love this band

  • Ten people were so immersed in the celestial goodness of this song that they missed the like button!

  • great video, incredible great song by this beuaitful band! Their music guided me through the last few years, they are totally great!

    well..hope you don't see this as a spam, but I thought this might interest some of you..I found a band on youtube called "Nyctalgia"

    Take the time listening to their songs "Falling into nothingness" and "Lost in timeless horizons"

    Extremely powerful masterpieces by this young guy..! just give him a chance..

  • Aliens seeded this planet in ancient Sumerian days. God truly is an astronaut.

  • @Ahoc1 you've been reading too much Zecharia Sitchin and von Danikan if you genuinely believe humans are the result of some kind of alien intervention/manipulation.We have millions of years of fossil evidence to show the evolution of the human species.

  • @andykm99 I have a better time believing an ancient civilization got started by by a more advanced race, then some guy with a white beard surfing clouds got bored so he created some humans. Geneticists are just know trying to find what makes us capable of complex thought, since we share 99.9% of our genome with chimps. And the only real 'feat' in our evolution is going into homo erectus, why we stood up on two legs will never be understood.

  • @Ahoc1 I totally agree with you.In my opinion world religions are all nonsense.It is just that people are indoctrinated into believing this sky daddy bullshit from an early age that they decline to seriosly challenge the nonsense that they are expected to believe.They just have faith although personally I think brainwashing would be a more apt description.Compared to that then the likes of Sitchin seem more believable but I prefer to deal with facts and evidence and evolution gives me that.

  • @Ahoc1 I wish they had a love button for this shit. That was brilliant, dude. I mean, like, what you said about being created by a more advanced race. I totally believe that. I just couldn't put my thoughts in to words, so, I thank you for this.

  • trippy

  • @Chojin13 LOL it is dubstep of course its trippy

  • @SPARTANARMYKILL dubstep?...THIS isnt dubstep ^^

  • Awesome how you have lightning in space and other phenomenal pictures mixed in with each other, awesome song.

  • some real sci-fi shit tingles my senses listening ti this song,,

  • Powerful. Beautiful. Perfection.

  • @hortonhearsahunter Your comment is probably the best in this entire comments section lol, +1 ~~

  • @hortonhearsahunter

    That was the greatest youtube comment I have ever seen.

  • @hortonhearsahunter ... bad comparison ... real bad...

  • @strang14 Retarded haha

  • @hortonhearsahunter Very original.... not

  • gr8 song!! why dont people comment on the music? this isnt a religious forum douchebags

  • @groovo1 I know damn, its a song, I guess since they think the band name has god in it that its ok to just drag religion into it.. I love this song, I'm glad my friend introduced me to this band.

  • It's interesting how your supposed to be enjoying a song/track. But somehow people are arguing about shit. Just enjoy the music :)

  • @nadoedope some people just hate others

  • This is what God would listen to if he was an astronaut. But actually.

  • great video, incredible great song by this beuaitful band! Their music guided me through the last few years, they are totally great!

    well..hope you don't see this as a spam, but I thought this might interest some of you..I found a band on youtube called "Nyctalgia"

  • “If survival is only for the fittest then all men weren’t created equal.”

    - Xenocrates

  • @chrisbro1988

    Of course all men are not created equal, if one man is born with no diseases and another with Muscluar Dystrophy, Downsynrome, Epilepse, Autoimmune diseases, or anything else was he created in such an, "Equal", state as the other man with nothing wrong and lives a wonderful life? Fuck no, do not bring your petty religionous bullshit here.

    And for all who wonder, THIS BAND IS ATHEIST! the name itself states that God may be nothing more than an Alien.

  • @YearZer02022 ummmm did you miss the quote because you are just restating what I had already stated lmao some people Ill tell you as for religion who said anything about religion hahahahahaha wow man take a chill pill

  • @YearZer02022 O ya one more thing you walk you talk you think guess what you didnt create yourself so whatever did create you is the symbol we know as GOD....Some people might not agree that is just because they cant accept the mystery of life and it angers them they cant find out who created them, THIS IS THE FUN OF IT ALL ITS A GIANT STORY YOU GET THE LEAD ROLE IN!!!

  • @chrisbro1988

    Obviously I didn't create myself, idiot. Nor did any 'god', we are just another generation/stage in Micro Evoluation, your idiotic posts make me sick at how stupid this world has become.

    Only low IQ, uneducated people believe that some fairy-tale being created Adam from dust and used his rib to create Eve, then the reason why humanity is evil because they ate from a magical tree. LOL sounds like something out of a childrends bed-time story book.

  • @YearZer02022 lol WOW.....You have alot of anger build up man relax relax smoke some buds or something.....Actually micro evolution is a form of believing a religious theory whether you believe it or not.... Theory is what makes everyone unique in this world and if you think I am going to buy into your anger I refuse I myself am not that uneducated to be pulled into a trap....I simply stated we were created by something and some peoples theory would be GOD others microevolution all ending as 1

  • @chrisbro1988

    Religion is believing in a higher power, super natural being, or a deity, Micro Evoluation is small changes in creatures each generation, Macro Evoluation is large changes in species over long periods of time (tens of thousands of years or even hundreds of thousands of years), in no way is that a religion, it is a theory.

    Your a fucking idiot, go read your bed-time kiddie story Bible.

  • @YearZer02022 you really got to chill man, who said anything about believing in the bible hahahaha of course you were put here to cause anger and negative thoughts, sorry man you cant get to me wont happen hehehehehhe

  • @YearZer02022 I feel like you are a disinformation agent sent here to cause confusion.....Let me ask you creature.........If we are not spiritual beings than what are we, sorry your theory just does not make sense without a creator......Who are you or me to say you know what happens in the end....WE SIMPLY DO NOT END OF THIS DISCUSSION I WILL NOT REPLY ANYMORE TO YOUR CHILDISH ANTICS, GO ARGUE WITH SOMEONE ELSE WHO ACTUALLY WOULD GET STIRRED UP LMAO, SORRY TRIX ARE FOR KIDS : p

  • @YearZer02022

  • Presumably from "Da Capo al coda", an instruction in musical scoring to repeat music from the beginning to a particular point, and then play an additional phrase, the "coda".

  • Coda is my boyfriend's name!! And this is good

  • Funny, rock sounds accelerated and agressive, high use of vocals. Post rock is soft, peaceful but still rythmic, i like both.

  • @DemokritosAbdera Son, I am proud.

  • God is an Kosmonavt.

  • @chrisbro1988 Strange seeing this.... I spoke with a lady today after such a long time she used to say this all the time Well said.... I'll pass this on C.

  • @chrisbro1988 Made famous amongst metal fans worldwide by LoG :D

  • @chrisbro1988 I saw this on the back of a takeaway menu for a place called Ringo's, and beneath this moving quote and a picture of the chief Sitting Bull, they'd put "UNLESS YOU PHONE RINGO'S - WE CATER FOR PARTIES".

    Funny, but sad,

    

  • @chrisbro1988 props for using one of the best quotes ever.

  • @chrisbro1988

    Only after the last tree has been cut down, Only after the last river has been poisoned, Only after the last fish has been caught, Only then will you find that money cannot be eaten, and that spouting proverbs makes you sound like a twat.

  • @NazRockProductions at least I get sum of that 4 letter word : )

  • @chrisbro1988

    Twat means infected pussy, cunt means pussy.

    You're sick.

  • @crownsedge hahahaha You think you can jump into my league little boy...Does the UK have your balls squeezed to tight lmao...

  • @chrisbro1988

    What the fuck are you talking about? Are you genuinely psychotic?

  • @crownsedge I'm sure you'd rather have him not answe that question.

  • The musicians of the world need to join together and start problem solving

  • @chrisbro1988 I'm quite interested in knowing what Ozzy Osborne has to say ^_^

  • Too right, popular music is so terrible atm.

  • Very well thought out song. You can sense in your spirit that this world is still not at peace yet...Lets go for it!

  • One Word...Peace

  • I thought of that band immediately when I heard this track.

    Both this band and 65DoS are amazing.

  • well said tooldruid absolutely agree.

  • God is an Astronaut is getting more known...so is Jakob. And rightfully so, both bands are phenomenally talented and relatively unknown until just recently. It's about time people took notice of the amazing music both these bands create.

  • Hey Porcupine, GIAA has jumped up in popularity, my hits on End of the Beginning have doubled in 2009.

  • Remind me to sigur ros

  • The pleasure is all mine dude :D If there is good music out there people we should share it :D

  • Cool video, great song, amazing band

  • great band :D thanks for the Tip. U might wanna check Up C Down C Left C Right C ABC +Start. Those guys have really something to say as well :D

  • nearly every post-rock band is similar to this in some sense ;-) Maybe i don't know enough Bands but at the moment i can't locate a Band which sound like them. Their music falls perfectly into place =) and while we're at it check out russian circles, a bit harder than most post-rock bands except from Pelican ;-)

  • I've seen them a couple of times at Cypress Avenue in Cork. Have any of their tunes appeared in ads or movies or video games?

  • i think i just wandered into a time capsule.

  • the FLOODz waz here!!!

  • "God is an Astronaut" very deep name indeed.

    Been listening to these guys for a few years, but this is now the first time in a couple of months i've heard them and I be chillin' :3

  • stunned....brilliant
