  • what is this fucking garbage? Music,art,movies,it's all garbage now. Experimental my ass.Avant gard? what's avant garde about making noise and nonsense crappy loops? Humanity is going to hell, no doubt about it.To think people actually like this shit.

  • I don't know if I think this is very beautiful because Jónsi and Alex are such beautiful humans or because it really is beautiful. Maybe it's the same thing? But I know I like the colors very much and I appreciate uploaders broad mind,thanks for not getting angry ;)

  • It's all a matter of opinion. This is experimental and avant garde, at the very fringes of what we call music. I believe what Jonsi and Alex try to do in all of their music is paint a very vivid picture with only the most basic of sounds. We are used to lyrics over music that tell us what to feel, what to imagine, J & A make us really listen. Really think about what we are listening to and what it means to you. To me this means fear, being scared. What does it mean to you? Is it just a noise?

  • This is exactly what John Cage was talking about when he said that beauty is in the ear of the listener. Some people think it's amazing music and others think it's shit. That's when you ask yourself 'what is beauty?' 'who am i to decide what is beautiful?' etc. When you realise that it's a matter of subjectivity, and is based on previous musical experiences and your current mindset, you might come to appreciate this song. Even if it's just a conceptual appreciation.

  • @FeinaMusic Why don't you make one then, I bet you there is a lot more to this then you think, a lot more thinking, a lot more passion, people make songs for a reason, if you don't like it don't listen, but don't fucking sit there and tell us how you think a song sounds, to each their own, but I don't give a fuck about yours.

  • Well this sure seeks the 'limits' of what's music and what is sound.

  • You can call this emotional all you want, but it's nothing but noise.

    I've heard some true, deep and beautiful music and it's not this nor is it the stuff that's "commercial driven."

  • @YExoticCreature I'ts your point of view, I respect that. Now where's the "truth" Id on't know, do you ?

    This apart, you can't ignore that there is a melody in this noise, to not hear it is a choice...

  • @rastakuere Those that get this might like to listen to Tim Hecker.....

  • @YExoticCreature hey hey i agree with you and i dont even really consider this music but that doesnt give either of us the right to bag on their work, i mean at least i can respect that they are getting songs out

  • @sukini3 I'm not bagging on their work. I was simply stating my opinion, which is that I don't consider this music, and I disagree with all the dipshits who are calling this "emotion."

  • Pushing the boundaries as always, known this track for about 2 years now and it still amazes me when i hear it, its just so good, proof that music doesn't have to be commercial driven wank fodder for pervs!

  • I'm sorry, but I just really can't make a sense out of this... Perhaps I"m not that emotional enough, and I had to dig a little deeper? But seriously, I did NOT get the point of listening to this any longer...

  • It's weird, new, weird in a good way. I understand how they love crackling records because it feels homey and cosy like a warm cocoon.

    And for me it's like you have to sing over it, make up your own song to the song. If that sounds confusing.

    No music has to sound the same way, and this is almost speaking for itself. Its quite clever how the music starts again when she throws the stone back into the water. Very smart.

    I like these artists, and If you don't like it then you don't like it.

  • I really like this... It is so - special?

  • no se entiende la musica es asi como se creo?

  • i felt like i stared into the eyes of satan to this song...

    O.O

  • /watch?v=W_2crKmqDeQ

  • I feel like im listening to Headhunterz lool :P

  • why the hell does it crackle? can it be found somewhere on other locations?

  • /watch?v=gz0RAPmp8DQ

  • This gave me chills of inspiration

  • Kinda reminds me of the band Fuck Buttons

  • 7 people dont like this video, they should burn in hell...oohhh, they are burn already.

  • brilliant song and video

  • L.S:D

  • I love the artistry in this video...

  • I'm glad they didn't put this on the Riceboy Sleeps album. That album always helps me fall asleep, and I don't think I could fall asleep to this! I do like it though...

  • as much as i'm trying to understand the emotion and ideas behind this track, i can't say that i enjoy listening to this...

  • Beautiful. People dislike it because it's different from Jonsi&Alex's normal work, or even that of Sigur Ros - But it conveys fear. It's really powerful.

    I also love the track name. So simple, honest and with such a depth.

  • I really felt it when the music stopped and started when the rock was thrown. Amazing.

  • AUEHRPIUHTIUH SO AMAZING SO SO AMAZING

  • what the fuck is this! ahahah

  • @mimiUmami Love, Hate, Happiness, Sadness, Childhood, Hope, Death, Life, Dreams, Emotions, Beauty...

  • @rastakuere actually, this kinda scared me a little bit. sorry :S

  • @mimiUmami I can understand that too, and it's true that I've not said "Fear" and "Unknow" in my list of words" ;-)

  • @rastakuere The pattern in life. It's scary when you find it but i's there. As in, what links everything to everything. Sounds nuts perhaps but this, in its own way - shows it. This is key in a way. It's the all-encompassing equation. The way I see at least. Like al of lives rythm can be decuded to simple earthly acts like the conflict in water (or other elemets like gases, etc. hoever less visible). This is us my man.

  • @rastakuere Love, Hate, Happiness, Sadness, Childhood, Hope, Death, Life, Dreams, Emotions, and Beauty hurts my ears and makes for a really bad song, aparently....

  • @rastakuere This is nothing like anything I've heard in music. I like the subtle shifts in melody. It's a unique shift in ambient and I give Jonsi and Alex props for pushing the genre into an uncomfortable rarely approached area instead of just accepting what is alllllways played. It's refreshing.

  • @mimiUmami white noise AKA a piece of shit

  • wheres the song?

  • If you concentrate on the the pattern and relationships that occur in water (especially in rivers), they can reveal a key to the genral pattern of all existance. In other words, humna, plant and animal relationship or conflict or chaos (orderly), can be seen in flowing water and therein might lie the simple answer to som many complex questions.

  • @alkalein Yes, I've read some philosophy about how we as human beings need to take the time to observe nature. It states that most human relationships are ruined from disconnection of ourselves with the earth.

  • I can totally relate to this music video! Not meant to be pretetious but to me It s a true peace of art

  • now im scared too ^^

  • What is this? As a massive fan of Jonsi and Alex if this is really their latest effort its a real letdown!

  • @mightyred99 it's an older piece, just the newest made available.

    i think the track was made with the visuals in mind, and personally I really like the sinister effect it adds to an otherwise innocent video.

  • love it !

  • @robaliciousIOW the new sigur ros album is already complete, but jonsi get his solo album before.

  • @rastakuere It's not complete. They started recording but decided to scrap everything and start all over again.

  • @robaliciousIOW Haha, your so fucking funny. I don't believe I read this!

  • i have no idea what this is but its totally not jonsi and alex

  • @agentibjurn @agentibjurn Hi, just look at the videos on the jonsi & alex site...you'll get the final answer. The link to their site is just on the right =>

  • mmm both the title and the music sound absolutely nothing like jonsi and alex- the video might be something they'd do

  • @voluptamors your so right

  • Just perfect as it is....

    ¿Where did this came from? I mean it s not in "Riceboy sleeps" album! FaceB? of witch single? Came out of the blew? Please someone let me know. Thank you

  • Hi, they said that this is an old video rush, on which they were working on far ago. And they recently decided to finish it and to show it

  • blue.

  • needs to be a little more music you know what i mean just not the same stuff over and over

  • gr8 melody--better than the radiohead'S 2 new songs

  • i mean that i found that video only in the format of "delve player", for example from Pitchfork (or from jonsi&alex official site) and i do not know how to "use" them

  • 非常酷。

  • Thanks

  • thank you for posting. impossible to get this file from delve...?

  • What do you mean by "from delve..." ??
