I Was Playing Drums by Efterklang - official video

[4MinuteTV1]

"I can't grow without a weapon or a dream.." I used this sentence in my graduate project in arts.. such a powerful song.

I'm Sober, I'm awake, I'm drunk, I'm sleeping, I'm rolling, I'm lying, I'm standing.

Dead or alive.... be or not to antibeing ..... Hear or not to heare

saw them live!! i was in germany and they played at a tiny club packed full of people. there was smoke in the air and beer on peoples breath. and it was the BEST concert i have ever been too. they are amazing!!

[kolibet]

sorry, i've loved some of the songs they made before (without ever being a dedicated fan)

this doesn't seem quite as delicate and authentic as many other songs that they made before - the video fits quite well with it (which means it isn't, from my point of view, as good as... etc) - you can't always be the best - i only hope that this is not the way they're making their music now, but only a little mistake...

[mangomarah]

Totally awesome video and song!!!!!!

Ich bin ein efterklanger

[mikferr]

there are 4 deaf people :(

[DeadWhiteButterflies]

It must've taken ages to set up all those strings in place. Amazing vocals too.

[oowatwat]

Wow props to this guy for subjecting himself to all that mud-sliding and string-grabbing. Made for an interesting vid.

[fcharlesae]

awesome!!!!!!!!!!

[theholygoes]

much loved :o) 

[ADevilFromHeaven]

The song's great, but the video is kind of creepy i think.... I mean waking up discovering that you're being dragged through the mud by coloured strings.... and then all of a sudden more strings appear and suddenly your face is covered by them.... I would definitely find that scary... but I like the video :)

[sfomia]

with the happy end ;)

it's very nice

[GecSword]

They are turning into hipster noise sadly. I encourage all of you to listen to parades and tripper instead of this. They've really taken a turn for the worse.

[birddogtheaction]

@GecSword Hipster noise? Hmmm...to me it seems that the songs have only become more melodic...and further away from noise. Not sure what you're listening to.

Granted, Parades and Tripper are unbelievable in their own right. I just don't understand the hate of a more melodic, organic sound.

[Hedonophobia]

@GecSword "This bad is 'hipster'. Listen to this band that i knew about before you and is totally not hipster"

:golfclap:

[michotto]

4 people still play drums!

[VALSWW]

гавно!



[administramation]

I Was Playing Drums goes up there as one of the best things they've ever done. :D Outstanding!

[creedbraton]

Incredibly talented artists. Seeing them live tonight and I'm excited as hell!

[OMFGNuts]

GREAT

[MissLoila]

i'm looking forward to sing choir for this band on Thursday ^^

[GecSword]

I'm unsatisfied. This just doesn't top Parades or Tripper.

[iliveforwinter]

@GecSword you said it

[acidomx]

@emmadiamanda YEAAH!!, this band is awesome, They should totally tour in Mexico. I'd be there buying a ticket as soon as available!.

[emmadiamanda]

@acidomx Lo malo es que no mucho publico conocedor en Mexico . . . o si¿¿

[spacegravity]

@emmadiamanda Pues no, pero calidad es mejor que cantidad. Los pocos que somos iríamos por supuesto :)

[emmadiamanda]

I feel different about this band, since the first song i ever heard from them was this precisly and i became a big fan of EFTERKLANG. wishing if they are touring come to Mexico . . . For me the songs are elocuent, brilliant, good lyrics. (I'm not fond with coldplay in ANY of their songs) . . . Wishing tou the best!!! dahlia =)

[ginoroc]

art evolves and so their creators, if u r a artist u would know!!. Amazing work love the new cd and video...grettings from Monterrey Mexico keep up the good work.....

[ginoroc]

art evolves and so their creators. Amazing work great video buy scary..greetings from Monterrey Mexico keep up the good work..............

[diegokmoraes]

@TheBlankTransparency the fact is not the change itself, can't you fucking notice that? there are MILLIONS of different ways you can go artistically, what efterklang did was to go into some mediocre mainstream shitty GENERIC music. and this sucks, do not support bands that does things like that. they used to do masterpiece genius, now, look at that shitty album they made.

[RAW1985RAW]

my mate is in this vid amzing..

[CabalStudios]

@RAW1985RAW Who's your mate?

[moooooooses]

wonderfull & perfect music/video... this makes my heart beat!!!

[likofsky]

Solace2  - 100% agree !

[byzohoe]

Great music and great video! Hope Efterklang will be back in Bergen soon!

[Solace2]

I'm sorry to say it, but you guys have lost your creativity on the new label. Your new album is great, but it sounds like you got mixed up in a blender with coldplay and this is the result. Sure, I have a spot in my mind for that, but your old music used to tell a narrative on it's own. Now I think you're relying to heavily on lyrics to tell the story. I like, and from any other band it would be a success but with the immense talent you guys possess, I think there is something left to be desired

[Shatonmedeek]

great video, but I'm a little frightened now

[Jackitreborn]

This is dark. :O
