DETECTIVE. ARRIVING. ON THE SCENE.

[@TheFrizz47]

I listened to this entire album by accident in summer and it was one of the most magical experiences I've ever had. So, picture the scene, it's a beautiful British summers day and I am high as a kite and loving the warmth of the sun on my skin and decide to rest under a bridge by the canal. My back is propped up on a diagonal brick wall and my bare feet are being tickled by the grass. My friend comes along, also very high, cuddles up next to me and throws this album on. My lord it was an out of body experience, I would rest my head back and all I could see was the reflection of the canal water dancing on the underside of the bridge and hear this ethereal music in my ears. It was Bliss.

[@pedroabreu417]

+Noah T-P Thank you. You (intentionally or not) actually helped me understand this album in a deeper (and thus more interesting) way.

[@TheFrizz47]

I'm glad I helped you Pedro.

[@moistgod2579]

Wow.

[@vascof.goncalves5985]

Oh shit. British summers are a thing?! OMG, I didn't know that. XD But true, this is one, awesome, band.

[@MelanieBakerMusic]

I can't get over how perfect this whole album is, every single song is so beautiful.

[@spaceqq_9900]

Can't agree any more

[@Infinitystones83831]

pusher is average.. but all the others are great. album 9.6/10

[@cole811]

+Anthony Toman exactly what i thought

[@penndavis471]

+Cole Kilboy I would have to agree that when you listen to Pusher by itself it's not as good as any of their other songs, but when you listen to it and it's immediately followed by Bloodflood pt. 2, it's great. That's the way they wanted you to hear it, and that's why they placed it in that order in the album.

[@bruceaisher]

Shame that Relaxer was such a disappointment. What the fuck happened.

[@joekinney5375]

2:23 damn, goosebumps. What an amazing song for an intro song, yet only a tiny taste of the flawless art to come. I freaking love Alt-J

[@fernandadelaor8413]

Yeah I feelin the same thing! Alt-j is fucking good ❤

[@kennithryan4566]

My favourite part was when they said "la"

[@jonatanmartins7587]

lalala la la la

[@JayInDecent]

Kennith Ryan i like when they said lalala

[@orangelo4579]

My favorite is when they said “la” at a different point in the song

[@jessstumbaugh8767]

Same. ❤️

[@craigsetf]

What about after when they said "la"

[@zDropdeadz]

Woah I can feel the universe

[@melinar4370]

An eclectic basket of sounds, they all weave so beautifully together. Alt J makes a flood of blood rush to my heart.

[@piopio402]

The power of alt-J lays within their ability to turn the beauty of life into notes and melodies. It's music with a soul and a pulsing heart; or, as they would say, an awesome wave, just like life itself :)

[@apyeon]

getting over a friendship breakup. thank you for putting the whole album up

[@undress62]

That drummer is OUTSTANDING!

[@evarodriguezeptx7046]

Andrés Arcos someone told me the drummer is deaf

@@evarodriguezeptx7046 yes, he is

[@Ppaintkiller]

[@dimhercule204]

This song really deserves to be more famous. I've rarely heard something that creative and original

Enchanté)

Everywhere.

[@fairymama9757]

Does anyone know what he says leading up to "escher wanna draw shit" ?

[@hrproductions796]

sounds like somthing to do with drawing a gun that uses clips

[@hrproductions796]

by draw i mean like take the gun out of its holster

[@ElfayezHanouf]

Your music is like my high but without the need for drugs

[@jamiemcgarry6414]

Yes but the drugs make it so much better.

Still a go-to album experience 7 years on. Find myself back here often for the journey this album provides.

I recently ordered 2 copies of This Is All yours and 2 copies of An Awesome Wave. There's only one of me. Thats how much I love this band

[@user-fq8ny2wl1c]

[@hendrikk2235]

[@unoriginalname1166]

Three lines were two points meet

[@zoeewatson]

Wow. THANK YOU so much for sharing this. Alt-j, omg I have just gone through the worst year of my life and your music actually kept me alive. This is the best album I've heard in a long time. I will see you guys in Austin at Fun Fun Fun Fest. I can't believe the beauty this album makes me feel when everything in the world hurts.

[@karatekat78]

I'm not making fun of you or anything like that, but how does music keep you alive? Is it the wait for their next release? Or that the music is so good it keeps you going?

[@lawrence-yx1ew]

Tanner M. music can be healing sometimes, peaceful.. im sure it helped hime out of a depression or something

[@1chick1camera]

Just saw them live last night....perfection

[@breezyb750]

cant decide which intro i like better

[@kevinnyakito-obonyo8072]

[@prakharkhandelwal569]

Has anybody else felt the need of Nara to be their funeral song?

[@elanasharich8538]

yes

[@marianamawaofficial]

This is how music affects us...we thought the same thing.

[@theperpetualprocrastinator9776]

Prakhar Khandelwal fuck that Nara's gonna be my wedding song.

The Perpetual Procrastinator if she/he (I ain't judging) agrees with that you got yourself an amazing wife/husband xD

[@rhiannalee6208]

It's 2020 and I still can't believe this track.

[@erikmaxwell7120]

It's 2022 and I still can not either, even though I've listened to it approx 1800 times

[@Giantsbran1227]

When i first heard this song I listened to it on repeat for about 3 hour straight. Fucking amazing

[@intrograted792]

This is on full volume repeat for the rest of my life. Thanks for this piece, guys.

[@Josihdio]

I love the old western bad ass feel Alt J carries, especially 3:55 on

[@Cubo_Supremo]

Yep

[@gazdaaa]

The best album intro in entire music history

[@bevan4602]

I listened to this all night last night and in the morning my parents found out I was listening to music and they checked what music I was listening to and they were actually proud😄

[@marcosperez1168]

the love of my life introduced me to this album. thank you

[@riceyylucido]

i dont know how to express my luv for u Alt-J

[@adamdetrain9391]

This is the most beautiful song the sounds just feel like they tell a love story.

[@bamfbearnunya3704]

Just saw Joe and company play Portland on 10-17....phenomenal! These men have exceptional talent. Would totally recommend seeing them live. The experience is breathtaking.

Oh my god. This song is like a drug to me. Whenever my thoughts are a mess and I can't seem to think I listen to this song and my mind is instantly cleared, I'm able to concentrate so much better...Love alt-J

[@JAB3000Productions]

Is anyone else here from that video of the two dudes eating rice cakes, making an Alt-J song?

[@johnsonmonkeman5766]

Such an incredible album. One of my favorites ♡

[@izcurrent9340]

I love your work. Thank you for posting

[@triciatan8412]

Thank you for putting the album up!!

[@ztron8053]

Alt-j is the next Tool derivative in my opinion. If you know Tool, Tool has the same effect on your listening perception in a spiritual manner.

[@-john2g3]

Yea, they are kinda dark or it gives you a sensation like that IDK how to describe it.

[@Shallaan]

Mhm I never really made any links between the two bands but they are my 2 favorites so I guess that makes sense haha !

[@TheBanatistyma]

Z tron More like Puscifer I would say.

[@breer.5699]

I went to like this comment and realized that I had already liked it a year ago 😂

[@breer.5699]

Well they are two different genre's. Tool to me to places I didn't know existed but i gotta say that alt j has been extremely spiritual for me too. Hard to find art among all the garbage nowadays.

[@ziyadrahman4440]

3:05-3:45 ,this is just the sounds you want alt j to make ! so intricate i hate life

[@jada-kai]

I love their music so much!

they are so incredibly technical its crazy man.

So so so good!

[@ilias18]

Ingenious. I can "smell" intentional or unintentional influences from Air as well as Mongolian Singing (for example Uyanga)? So many elements, such a unique result.

that outro.. love that !

[@mrepictacovargas2464]

Best part imo

[@indisunner]

definitely but the whole structure of the song leading up to it is incredible too, it's difficult to pick on it but it builds up perfectly for.. the outro of intro

The song reminds me of "music for 18 musicians" by Steve Reich. It is as minimalistic as most parts of this song. Just great!

[@GamVlou]

Today I crossed the line I drew to myself, and my soul is now gone

[@achievementmaster6084]

Very very good song and album. Almost too many influences to name but its the production that really stands out for me in this respect. Depeche Mode 84-89 period and Trevor Horns work on the Slave to the Rhythm album by Grace Jones come through for me on this particular track. The album exudes artistry. The Melodies! The Harmonies! I love it.

[@Stephen1455]

I can't believe that Rolling Stone categorized them as Progressive Folk!!!!!!! I love them so much more than that category!!!

[@TheErinCallahan]

very good album awesome wave is all time great hard to capture lightning in a bottle twice

I don't use the word "eargasm" at all... but this was quite the eargasm
