Deafheaven - Violet

[KD666999]

Deafheaven in Paris tonight :)

[ARFarley]

I'm disappointed. Not in the music, but in most of the people who commented on this page. Shut the fuck up and just listen to the music.

[sarasota75]

March 20th in New Orleans, Louisiana.

[NorthernApparition]

These guys are touring with Alcest in March! Can't wait!

[shinobitricks]

Why have some gone, but we are still here?

[BludgeoningTheWeak]

This is SOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOD.

[FrequentFly3r]

good sh*t

[M4r7en]

awesome

[oaklandrmoss18]

Damn this shit is sweet. A nice wolves of the throne room feel to it

[Abrausesteleport]

saw them live not to long ago. This nigga spit in the air and then let it drip on him for the next 30min. Disgusting. But so good.

[Faggotura]

this was awesome! ^o^

[mynameisgodihateyou]

black nigs

[thew44]

Why doesn't this version have the initial scream when the BM comes in?

[cocreane]

great track,production could be better.particularly with the tinny guitar distortion.still an excellent and original song from a very promising band.good work...

[TheGameSquid]

Far from perfect, but still a pretty good attempt at merging the classic stylistic elements of Black Metal and Crescendo-Rock a la Explosions in The Sky. I really enjoyed Roads To Judah for what it was.

[nikoliciv]

I wish if he would just shut up so i can enjoy this beautiful track.

[danevati]

Saw them yesterday opening to Russian Circles... I seriously cried from happiness

[oaklandrmoss18]

@danevati These guys opened for russian circles? lol 

[jw2113]

@oaklandrmoss18 do you find that surprising

[oaklandrmoss18]

@jw2113 does a bear shit in the woods?

[danevati]

@oaklandrmoss18 yeah they were so good! why so surprised?

[Zenthesis7]

Reminds me of Agalloch.

[TheHollowDark]

From 0:00 to 4:20 I like that part... :)

[gothicmetalfreak]

@joemj413 ooooo caps, you showed me. Seriously though, you're a major twat, and if you're going to make an attempt at trolling, then don't get pissed when someone responds to your bullshit. That makes you look even more pathetic than you already are.

[ventilatedzygote]

the only things potentially linking this with black metal are the surface treatment techniques of shrieking and blast beats, both of which sound completely stupid and out of place in this song.

[BlackEcology]

@ventilatedzygote but of course... they obviously forgot to keep your specific tastes in mind when writing music they wanted to play for themselves. they should have thought of your ego (and shitty whining) first.

[ventilatedzygote]

@BlackEcology My main point was that "black metal" is a misnomer for this music.

[ventilatedzygote]

@BlackEcology This is the same obstacle that youtube commentors trip themselves up on every time. Skim past the meat of the comment, form an emotional impression of it, and reply with a personal attack. I am not so naive as to expect music to be custom made for me, in fact you'd have to be borderline retarded or clinically narcissistic to do that. The fact is, this is post-rock with black metal wallpaper. I guess whether that is a good or bad thing is another topic

[alexmonro83]

@ventilatedzygote In my humble opinion post rock with black metal wallpaper is vastly superior to actual black metal.

[ventilatedzygote]

@alexmonro83 okay. is that supposed to hurt my feelings or something? i don't get your motive.

[alexmonro83]

@ventilatedzygote Haha just sharing my thoughts mate.

[ventilatedzygote]

@alexmonro83 ah. fair enough.  then i must humbly disagree.

[alexmonro83]

@ventilatedzygote I humbly acknowledge your disagreement

[aarongtr180]

@alexmonro83 Then you haven't listened to any black metal. Emperor, Enslaved, Burzum, etc. all create vast soundscapes with a surprisingly low amount of notes.

[alexmonro83]

@aarongtr180 I have listened to black metal and Burzum etc is good & I like it. But I like post rock more which is why I like this more. Although neither is as good as post metal or post hardcore. (in my opinion)

[quinnofearth]

beautiful. gota love pretty black metal.

[joemj413]

Music for cunts with bad tattoos and shitty dyed hair who just want to fuck the band

[gothicmetalfreak]

@joemj413 So... music for people like you?

[rubingab]

damn, bm everyday gets more hipster.

[AirspaceFalling]

Hoooolllyllylyllylylyly craaaap.

[fromsinking]

The guitar at 10:13 gets me every time. So emotional.

[Lastfaul]

Not really black metal for me, but nice shit !

[hardcorefilthblood]

Blackgaze? fuckyeah.

[miscreatedLT]

those who do not know yet shoud check out Lantlôs. watch?v=19Yp-a2g_18

[TRIARII117]

i like this direction black metal is taking. ever since alcest, it seems to be getting better and better

[Menegoth]

@TRIARII117 Don't be silly. There've been tons of great black metal pretty much every year. But I agree that 2011 has been an amazing year for BM

[SmoogleChoocher]

@TRIARII117 I agree. To me, black metal kind of hit a wall in the third wave. Bands were all just sounding the same. And it wasn't even all that good. Black metal turned into a shit storm of bands trying to "out metal eachother." It got away from the music.

[ANTIanitmetalclub]

This album made me want to get into black metal again. :)

[aneverlastingbreath]

Sigur Ros + Mayhem = Deafheaven

[metalhasmyballs2]

reminds me of Dekadent

[SorenKennedy]

This music is perfection

[alexmonro83]

Post metal, Post hardcore, Post rock, Post rock/screamo & Post Black are all fucking awesome.

[Germanisme]

@alexmonro83 post music

[alexmonro83]

@Germanisme yea pretty much

[TubeYouDVD]

dreaming while awake

[Kafudinahpah]

Usually not into screaming lyrics but fuck yeah. Like if Sigur Ros played metal.

[alexmonro83]

@Kafudinahpah Thats like the perfect description of this music.

[Sutton195]

@Kafudinahpah

shutup you bender

[Kafudinahpah]

@Sutton195 Bender?

[johnclarke74]

@Kafudinahpah bender - (euphemism) homosexual, gaylord, batty boy, shirtlifter.

[Kafudinahpah]

@johnclarke74 hahaha wow

[johnclarke74]

@Kafudinahpah couldnt have said it better!!! 'like if sigur ros played metal' we should drink a beer one day bro!

[johnclarke74]

@Kafudinahpah exactly right mate....like if sigur ros played metal...awesome

[danevati]

@Kafudinahpah dude, you do know that sigur ros didn't invent the post rock right? the only thing similar between these two bands is that they're both post....

[TheMook200]

@danevati little too caught up in labelling and genres there, mate.

[hailstan666]

This band is the fucking shit. Roads to Judah is a masterpiece.

[Werrion]

sehr schön, die ersten 4 Minuten erinnert an Intronaut...

[nichtdiemama92]

@Werrion

oder nach Imperium Dekadenz- autuumn serenade...
