If These Trees Could Talk - Thirty-Six Silos

[InfernalskePandaen]

Humanity is a fucking cancer

[reesescandy7498]

Im with all of you we ned to stop now ,right now if we stop god will forgive us..... its not right war must stop,fighting must stop, drugs must stop being produced all must stop.....we all as humans need to get along no more fighting for our differences....we need to pass these things on, you all are the most well spoken people ive ever heard. PEACE TO ALL!!!!!!

[a110075]

we deserve to die for our crimes against nature

[a110075]

the human race is nothing but a bunch of greedy people who believe that everything is done for the greater good despite the harmful means. we are cruel and heartless beings, although others try to help, it is not enough, we are all gonna die some day. we humans are killing not only ourselves but others, animals, plants, and the earth. we have no right to be superior to others, and we have no right to kill off the planet and our brethren.

[onlypeace023]

Wow, what an amazing video for an amazing song... I love how their emotions from the song are represented through the video. And how it begins and ends with blood stream and cell footage remind us that we are all, indeed, human... whatever that means.Either destroying machines or emotional, living, feeling species... I like how it brings you back to the gift of life that we all have, reminding us how our bodies work so hard every second of everyday to keep us alive but look what we decide to do.

[kingblee1]

thanks for fab pairing of video/music........these guys are being

criminally overlooked!!!!!!!!!!!!! Guitar --operas??

[Litoshq]

It's painful to watch this.

[TheWorldsAllaTUBE]

The video makes the song so much better. This is the message i think this music is trying to convey here. There is a good logical reason why a lot of bands like this, (post rock, etc) have this unique yet very similar sound(s). Its coming from the deep reaches of an individuals inner emotions and thoughts, and the important ones. Thx for the upload.

[jrstreets]

When they come to take you away go quietly

[MzaCrack]

Amazing music. Big influence on us although it may not be apparent

[nancychapman69]

[KimestraAucuparia]

I just cant get enough.

[WS6HUMMER]

who is John Galt.

[omegasephiroth93]

human beings are awful

[letmeknov]

@omegasephiroth93 indeed man, same thoughts here

[DimStep17]

NEW MUSIC GROUP CAN DIN SKY Belief in. And searches of True. Form Harmony!!! D.S.

[Smuusik]

There is too much to be said and words are treacherous creatures.

Magnificent.

[TheToolUnit]

Beautiful song. And the video complements the song wonderfully. No words are necessary.

[MoNoOvids]

holy fuck these

these guys are kinda starting to get the credit they deserve

i remember back in summer o9 this song only had like 500 views :p

[SickM3nace]

i had to come here... my lil sister was playing rebeca black and left my brain swollen

[tallgreeno12]

@jvadams72 so true!

[Kelspir]

massive vid. nice job

[thedudeiscj]

What's the deal with all the blood cells at the end?

[TheEchoesofMetroid]

@thedudeiscj the blood is always flowing throughout human history.

[The19dreams]

one of the best post rock band i discovered recently

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

:)

[Singo127]

Does anyone have the guitar tabs for this song??

[Leoofthesun]

@Singo127

Nope, but the key of the song is in B minor

[jvadams72]

We kill, we shoot, we beat, we harm, we destroy, we terrorize, we burn, we lie, we cheat, we steal, we are devils and demigods...every one of us...these images are as powerful as they are disturbing and relevant...sometimes it pains me so much to see the hell we unleash on each other...my god, we are a flawed species...

[Tazdingomon123]

@jvadams72 Thank you for speaking that words that are dear to my heart. You my brother, are someone like me who cringes at the world we as a race have created. Although we have never met, your words alone tell me your a friend. Maybe one day we can stop calling each other human, maybe one day war will stop, but until that day..we are trapped. In our own ways, our thoughts, and our simple understanding of the universe at large. We are the eyes of the universe looking back at itself.

[jvadams72]

@Tazdingomon123 well said my friend....well said

[Tazdingomon123]

@jvadams72 And too you also.

[mattbmx1234]

@jvadams72 you're thinking too deep into this.... it's merely Darwinism.

[jvadams72]

@mattbmx1234 in what respect? Are you suggesting the images shown in this video point towards an evolution of mankind? Or perhaps you are suggesting that the hell we unleash on others is merely survival of the fittest? please expound

[mattbmx1234]

@jvadams72 The second part of the statement is correct.. in my opinion.... but.. it's how we survive and adjust to the hell unleashed upon us is what pushes us forward...not technology or anything relative.. because that in its self is social degeneration and takes away from self reliance.. those who can't adjust and survive what rains upon them end up fading away ...which is the way it should be. I have survived so much that kills most and I feel that I have earned the air in my lungs.

[Tazma666]

@jvadams72 Un fou qui sait qui est fou est bien moins fou qun fou qui ne sait pas quil est fou ! ....... Transalate it for yourself 

[jvadams72]

@Tazma666 lol "Le désir de paraître habile empêche souvent de le devenir."

[SaivNosevi]

@BludgeoningBassist I'm right there with you, man... ITTCT is just so far beyond anything that we can put into words. One of the most beautiful and powerful bands out there... It may be a bit one-sided of me to say, but I can tell when someone has good taste in music, because if they listen to a band like If These Trees, This Will Destroy You or pretty much ANY post-rock band and not find the music to be absolutely beautiful, they don't deserve their ears.

[pullbackbaby]

Added to favorites. The man who planted trees.

[videofan320]

a very good video, while it is running me down the icy back ...... but we are people ...!

[MunizMichael]

I got fucking chills..

[horseracer333]

Our world is so fucked up....

[KYgelly]

@horseracer333 not really our fault...its in our nature to fuck shit up...

[horseracer333]

@KYgelly I guess.. but it's the fact were all power trippin instead of just trying to find ways to co-exhist with one another... I fucking love this song.. it's so powerfull. <3

[komradhall]

03:06 onwards is like the ludovico technique from a clockwork orange

[seod]

Man i wish with all my heart that these guy make it big, they deserve it.

Their music is so good.

[dabom12898]

its so depressing...haha still love it...under viewed as well as rated

[dabom12898]

My mom says this music is annoying every time I put their CD in the car...DAMN YOU MOM!!!!

[Silvade14]

@dabom12898 Seriously? Darn that is not nice, my dad loves Post-Rock. I introduced him to God is An Astronaut, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, If These Trees Could Talk and Mogwai. He listens all the time.

[dabom12898]

@Silvade14 haha im first gen american so my mom is still just into asian and *cough cough* hip hop like my little brothers....

[TerribleTomy]

I feel ashamed for being a human. We are slowly destroying this beautiful planet... its sad

[MoribitoCZ]

Amazing music, absolutely fantastic... and the video - it completely destroyed me. Tears in my eyes

[Symphony675]

I love how some of the most awe inspiring music, is the stuff on the less beaten path. Go figure.

[pozoleater01]

These Guys Deserves more Fame i bet they would be one of the best bands if more knew them.

[EvilCracky]

awsome music..love these style of bands

such amazing instrumental stuff

[l33tpwnzord]

anybody know where the footage is from?

[GENERICCEREAL67]

GOD I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH...

[8AxelTheDesolator8]

New favorite band ^^

Never would've heard of them if it weren't for that InFamous trailer.

[jaysterthe]

Me too! I love Malabar front

[8AxelTheDesolator8]

@jaysterthe

Yeah, Malabar Front & Thirty-Six Silos are my favorites :D

They make me wanna go out & change the world.

[44antman]

the clip at 1:11 should be on failblog....

[Fenrisulfr529]

What an awesome video. Really makes you think about how evil and cruel humanity can be.

[deadflagsproductions]

@Fenrisulfr529 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[Fenrisulfr529]

@deadflagsproductions WTF?

[Krigarar]

it's frustrating how short the song is

[SillyM24]

iono why, but this hit me deep

[ewindsor10]

Whoever disliked this video is a fucking noob.

[MrShadyJeff]

As a listener of heavy metal, I can stilll say that this music is fantastic. This is outside the prejudices of genre.

[Theheavymetalmeat]

@MrShadyJeff

Just like you man , I 'm a heavy metal freak , a Thrash/black metal specialist . but man this music is great and this band is extremely underrated

I can't believe how a whore like lady gaga gets countless awards , and those guys are barely being heard

[invisiblepurple]

@Theheavymetalmeat i agree with everything you just said.

[MrJuico1337]

@Theheavymetalmeat How is Lady Gaga a whore?

She's a musician, same as everyone else and deserves the same amount of respect.

[CFis22]

@MrJuico1337 Lady gaga is not a musician...she was when she used to play small shows around new york city under her actual name...now she's a product, And a piece of shit product at that. Sorry, I can't respect someone who wears meat around.

[yummyinmytummy09]

@MrJuico1337 She's not known for a fact to be a whore...she is considered by some to be a musician...those are the facts...here's where you're wrong...she deserves no respect at all because she produces horrible music that the stupid media publicize like no other to get stupid people who follow trends to like her music

[MrJuico1337]

@yummyinmytummy09 Perhaps you'd like to discuss exactly WHY it's horrible music?

I think it's actually pretty good, and I'm no trendwhore.

She's a talented singer/songwriter and pianist and anyone who denies that purely because of her current popularity is clearly an idiot.

And well done on stating your somewhat opinionated and dubious "facts".

She is a musician - she makes music. This is a fact.

There are no opinions involved here, unlike some deluded people would have you believe.

[MrJuico1337]

@yummyinmytummy09 And before you claim that my opinion of her has somehow been swayed by outside influences or I like her because she's trendy, perhaps you'd like to take a look on my page/favourites and see what else I listen to.

I don't let anyone sway my opinion on what's good and what isn't.

That is all.

[yummyinmytummy09]

@MrJuico1337 you still like lady gaga...

That is all.

[blueamerican54]

@yummyinmytummy09 and I like Fall Out Boy. So fucking what.

Just because someone listens to shitty music, it doesn't mean they can't have a brain for it as well. I happen to find Lady GaGa catchy. I don't like her music at all, but I can admit she's talented. And I can respect talent. Most of what I listen to is mathcore, post-rock and death metal. So suck it, you pretentious little fucking hipsters.

[lolitztoeknee]

@blueamerican54 well fucking said. some of these homos talk a big game, but you know they have at least one late 90's boy band on their ipod playlist, ready to blast in their hybrid. Look at my clothes! They're so vintage! Look at my hornrim glasses! I'm such an individual!

[CrosEyedPaintballFan]

i agree with the end i found this band by watching his videos thanks ivan and amazing music best

[AltfanKG123]

its like a really heavy expolsions in the sky <333

[NitemareTheatre]

From 2:30 to 4:05 is really good

[SyndirJoro]

0:09 to 4:48 Is really good, in my opinion.

[kingman4888]

1 fucked up video...

[Agallulver]

@kingman4888

Is it fucked up because it's showing real footage of war and corruption. What is really going on in our planet, or is it fucked up because it isn't Beyonce shaking her fat ass in front of a camera or some rapper dude flashing his bling around with bouncing cars?

[kingman4888]

@Agallulver damn straight

[SilverSlayer88]

is this a fan made vid or actual video?

[dudetube911]

OMG why does the KKK exist????????

we live in the same world!! we came here 2 live!

we all the same!!!

why do u look 2 the colour!?!?!!?!??!!?

i mean, sometimes i think what the F is goin in their mind?? daaammn

[dannyshmoop]

dudetube911 do you know why the band is called if trees could talk, its about the world being destroyed like rainforests etc

[lotzx5]

@dudetube911 I'll be honest with you, I don't like the way most black people act.

[buckledkiller]

@lotzx5 thats the thing though.

the people who you are talking about are niggers not black people.

Also niggers can be white people to.

[Sildrail]

Les introductions de ce groupe sont indéniablement envoûtantes.

[biohass]

i got chills from this song...

[MoNoOvids]

This video could mean nothing

But then again it's just like the music

It's what ever you want it to be.

a meaning only you can understand

Beutiful song

been one of my favorites for a long time now.

[nuclearbeeberman]

absolutly impressive video!

fits perfect with the song.

[Angrypatience]

Welcome to America, country of where we are free to beat your asz if you get outta line.

[North0house]

This is our broken world. We've got to rely on Yahweh, it's the only way I make it through.

Beautiful music, thought provoking.

[TheEnd004500]

Beautiful music right there. These guys make true music, some of the most beautiful melodies I have ever heard in my life. Brings a tear to a man's eye.

[theantiorangejordan]

Why does there has to be so much violence in the world?

[TheShooterlol]

because there so much sadness in the world

[theantiorangejordan]

and why is there sadness? Why cant people just be satisfied. I mean Why would you want to kill somone just cause they didnt believe the same thing you did.

[TheShooterlol]

fear,confusion,envy.Believeing they can stop it. that they believe they have the right to.OR just that they are sad and want someone to be just like them. The greatest fear i believe is no one wants to die alone. these are the ppls flaws. no one is perfect. but want to achieve it...in their own image.ironic no?

[100percentrekkie]

@theantiorangejordan Because it's worked pretty well so far for getting us what we want. It's about instant gratification. That's the reason regardless of whether or not it's a good one.

[kingman4888]

hahah im sorry but i laughed at 1:13 and 1:17 lol

[papersmack]

where are these clips from?

[Paulevertonfc]

wish this band would play a gig in england or ireland

[stem7594]

omg dde dat wud b class!!!

[poborskij]

This song is one of the very best Post-Rock songs ever made so far. The euphoria and goosebobs I get is indescribable. You don't need drugs to feel high or godlike, that's for sure.

[Paulevertonfc]

im the same , totally agree with you there .

[iseedeadpeepole]

Jeez, every song I have heard of theirs is a 5 star...

[Pyramidrevenge]

Amazing video and song... It's just sad that there's not place in the major music scene for instrumental rock.

[fluence51]

Instrumental rock is the non-vocal version of any rock song.

Of course there's no place for post-rock in major music scene. Its place is in the future.

[EpHiixX]

2:46 - 2:50 its awesome how they got the timing so perfect

[KingdomSieger]

yup oO the timing is epic

[AnotherStupidGamer]

4:04 Thats horrible...

[TheShooterlol]

a true horrible way to die.

[steelclawd]

i love this band..i cant believe it only has around 5 and a half thousand views...this shud be the next big thing out there! THE MuSIC! ROX!!!

[osmanbero]

They are walking the way of Agalloch

[Ketza1koat1]

awesome !!!!

[Paulevertonfc]

amazing , where are this band from ?

[bw120205]

they are from Akron, Ohio. they are stand up dudes and make great music. they are bound to be huge someday.

[Paulevertonfc]

thanks dude . bought there album today off itunes. its really good . 36 silos is just an amazing track .

[AnotherStupidGamer]

Sadly. Good bands never make it. Shitty ones do...

[TakashiKashikura]

there's mainstream music and real music.

this is real music.

[gwalchafed]

from forest!

[forged0identity]

amazing band they'll be really famous some day.

fuck the police.

[prophet4thespaceage]

Watching this video remains us that The human race still has a lot to learn. And we have been learning the lesson the hard way.

[KingdomSieger]

very nice, i love it

[SunDevilSun453]

good song. random movie.

[evilferet]

they really are a great band. very addicting.

[Balertwine]

If the accordion hadn't been so low in the mix, the happy polka aspects of Thirty-Six Silos would have been more self-evident.

[bobthecoolman]

omg I love If these trees could talk!! I can't believe only 200 some views. You guys deserve so much more. Best post-rock band I've ever heard

[KingdomSieger]

same

[JayWood2010]

its more than 200 views now :) one day hopefully post rock will become famous an open peoples eyes that lyrics doesnt make a song, but feelings make songs

[JoseCarlosTX]

This is a smart video. We see how people destroy themselves while more humans are born each second.

[baert03]

Great concept and editing. Reminds me somehow of Maybeshewill's Not For Want of Trying.
