Its great to see this new movement of post-rock bands, who actually want to make beautiful music instead of just 3 minute pop songs. And its great to see that its not just confined to Iceland

[@haveaniceabduction3]

What a band i saw these guys last night absolutely unbelievable live band also saw explosions in te sky about a month ago love them on record but I wouldnt say they were a live band was not impressed!!! Thats coming from a fan

I listen to this music when ever I want to feel inspired and alive. I view things in such different way that it makes me wonder off. Especially when driving... I see the wheat fields and the city... dunno its amazing it's a weird feeling this music gives me that no other does.

[@rallychild]

realhewdshug, i agree with you to an extent. tera melos is so complex and in your face- i love it. but at the same time TWDY simplicity is just as beautiful. i enjoy drawn out repetetive songs like this, cuz i can actually handle it. amazing band

[@WewtJuice]

The post-rock community is a small one. So instead of arguing lets listen to some awesome music and be happy we have something in common in this mad world that we live in.

[@genesis39v6]

I saw them live in Austin a few weeks ago. I liked how the drummer when through 4 sticks during just one song and how there were shredded sticks on the ground below him. He doesn't hold back. One of them told me they'd be playing again in Texas early summer. Can't wait.

[@Dallasboy214]

So beautiful 😭

[@Rushers1]

One of the best post rock songs of all time in my opinion

[@CotyMLong]

Explosions in the sky Doesn't have better music than This will destroy you. at all.

[@cesarearesu]

seeing these guys live was fucking stupidly epic.

[@menudasmierdas]

Estuve ayer, en la sala Becool de Barcelona, y sonaron de muerrrteeee. Y los teloneros "Carontte", de Barcelona, aún no tienen nada publicado, muy guapos también.

[@Josh350]

lol, They are ambient. Says on their myspace profile. As for knowing about music.I'm a drummer and the reasons why I like these bands is because like i've stated before "It makes me have this weird inspirational feeling" Their music is not that complicated to play, their drummer does have some neat beats but over all it is a great band by what they portray with out having any type of form of lyrics. Now all of you should stop arguing and enjoy the music.

[@onlytime111222]

woooow i really loved the song .. n they play it so good live .. thanx for upload it :)

[@monkeyvsmonkey]

beautiful.

[@xSOTIDOOMx]

awesome song title!

[@redcellardoor1031]

This is fucking fantastic.

[@FromaboveintheMountainMusic]

Sois los mejores... me vais a destruir...

[@nerodragonslayer123]

this is my favourite band

[@ButteryKickflips]

so long ago.... but so beautiful I love them so much! been a fan since 09!

[@dimbrys]

Amazing song, one of the best post-rock songs ever, from a stunning album... Also... This World Belongs To The Strong are just starting out and need our support.. Bloody good post-rock in the G!YBE vein. Find them by putting "/thisworldbelongs" after the myspace address.

[@Rushers1]

one of the best post rock songs ever

[@CauseAndCatastrophe]

this band makes me happy

[@deejour]

[@hefgzx11]

chickenfoot is probably my favorite post rock album. i can just totally relate to it.

[@webofsnyderman]

agreed to the fullest!

[@skatergurl566]

Amazing. Truly amazing

[@Mimi12350]

I love this band 🤍🤍🥰🥰

[@slicendyess]

TVTsteven, i see your point, but a person's understanding of music, regardless of the setting, goes only as far as their mind is seeking to understand, if you're at a concert for the experience, or to rock out(not gonna happen with this band), or just chill, you might oversee the meaning of a song. Just as easy to do if you're at home on itunes.

[@turnthemusikup]

Right on! And I would kill to see Explosions live :)

[@NonOmnisMoria]

magnifici...

[@deejour]

How a tear just falls down.........

[@akikarvonen]

I left my long time girlfriend after hearing this song a few years ago :D This is my favourite song.

[@MdmaMadnesS]

I could listen to this song every day and I still like it so much! Really, this is so peaceful and dreamy...Simply amazing and totally breathtaking! I love them! btw...I thought this might interest some of you as I saw some comments about good bands some posts before.. SOme days ago I found a band on youtube called "Nyctalgia". You really should give a listen to their song "Falling into nothingness" Breathtaking newcomer..trust me...it's totally worth!

[@easthastings]

one of my favorite post-rock songs ever. almost up there with Your Hand In Mine or The Dead Flag Blues.

[@3illyboo]

When the music ends it destroys me.

[@davidjm7]

this band is great, i love post rock

[@fallios]

these guys are really good, you should check out god is an astronaut aswell

[@SuperAnimalDrummer]

I find this music, and post-rock music in general, more sincere and heart felt than any other form of music. I guess the lack of lyrics or a front man, also means lack of ego. They all equally created this mass of awesome sound just coming at you. It's sick. This is one of the most beautiful and majestic rock songs I've ever heard, and those adjectives used to describe a rock genre are not common, at least not in my experience.

[@turnthemusikup]

I would kill to see this band live :)

[@clistere2]

i used to prefer EITS, but when i saw mogwai live i totally changed my mind. they blowed me away!! anyway, hopefully i'll see "this will destroy you" live in april =D

[@CauseAndCatastrophe]

these cats know how to write great music. good stuff

[@in_da_cut]

this band is sick i write to this

[@alejandroccv6857]

paradise

[@philmakepeace]

I'm just waiting for them to come to London. Young Mountain is one of the best post-rock releases.

[@NowyouknowMusic]

ya man i totally agree thats what I mean about understanding music on a certain level if you take most ppl to a TWDU show or an EITS show they wont get it they'll probably be like what is this? but the fact that when i saw eits they were one of the best i've ever seen and ive seen so many bands from rock legends to the greatest underdogs but eits was just an amazing close your eyes and leave your body kind of experience haha

[@PassionOfDenmark]

Search for: This Will Destroy You - They Move On Tracks Of Never-ending Light (The Inituition remix) A new remix of this great band!!!

[@Josh350]

god is an astronaut is pretty good and that was me using a friends computer... there's also haven't listened to do make but i've listened to godspeed.

[@tektalus]

similar to explosions in the sky - nice one!

[@davidjm7]

this song is great, GIAA is my favorite post rock band though

[@MrT1ki]

dont forget "do make say think" that is good stuff.

[@relativ6192]

@SuperAnimalDrummer niiice. i listen to a lot of deathcore, brutal death, grind and math, but this is REALLY good. shows that music need not be super technical super shred and shit to be good. it sucks how metal fans tend to be one of the most close minded people in the scene, having these sincere forms of music underrated. props to this band. me is likes tis. :))

[@menudasmierdas]

Deseoso por verlos en directo.

[@ohmylauren]

Agreed. Hands down, Mogwai is the best.

[@sonicyouthinphants]

so fucking lovely

[@saksilangit]

agreed best sad song eva..my fav is suicide by star..

[@akikarvonen]

I've done powertabs of this one, but can't find them. :D Very helpful, I know..

[@lololihaveaids]

i agree

[@WaterboyPhx]

Yeah, they're pretty good, too...

[@Csphhhm]

ambient is becoming synonymous for instrumental these days they sound very much like God Is An Astronaut:D

[@GabrYX20]

TWDY is greatest post-rock band. Check also Three Steps To The Ocean, very similar and beautiful...

[@thestormlscoming]

@nerdheadbanger i get what youre saying, but for me personally, i love explosions more. i get a full story from their songs, and idk, it elicits some sort of strong emotions for me. i think this will destroy may be more "talented," but i dont get that same sense of purity or whatever from their songs. but i still absolutely love them, i just hold explosions in a higher regard.

[@BelovedSpear]

Blessed radiant goodness. Come to DC. I've got a 350 seat venue. OK, so maybe I'd need to convince my church board, but a pastor has to have some clout, eh?

[@Trifox]

This is the best stoner band ever.

[@chrismcdonald4359]

Its all about the thrusting! lol. make love to your music!

[@NowyouknowMusic]

wow explosions is about one of the best live bands ive ever seen they arent just playing music when you see them live they are entering a different world I guess you just have to understand music on a certain level these guys are good im a fan but can not compare to eits

[@NowyouknowMusic]

I wasn't the one who used a bunch of hilarious profanity to defend myself I just said in order to appreciate EITS compared to so many other bands live you just have to understand music on a certain level.

[@RaeudigerRuediger]

@SuperAnimalDrummer and the weird thing about this is that there are so many people who thing differently. sad enough. they think that without a front man or lyrics the music lacks something...

[@JohnnySideburnsX]

Does anyone know which is the best album??

[@CaptainCavemaNL]

In W2? :D

[@holychest13]

Did you ever find those powertabs, and if so could email them?

[@Arzac94]

Does anyone know why the guitarists uses a laptop? (besides playing the electronic drums) Does he have sound effects in there or something? I really want to know. I started writing music like this and I LOVE their sound and I want to write somewhat the same ting, but with my own style to it. If anyone knows the guitarist's equipment, please let me know. Thank you so much.

[@agudanna]

me imagino que iras a la Boite el martes 14...

[@lightthiscity11]

back troll back!

[@sauronwibble]

@maneatingorchids Maybe but Explosions are slightly less melodic in my opinion, this seems more like film soundtrack to me. Still love both bands though! And yes, Digital Delay... Where would U2 be without it. :)

[@clistere2]

eheh that would be awesome... gy!be are EPIC

[@rockusrock]

A couple of reasons. The way the music is played. Not saying they are copying at the drive in but its a little more on the indish than ambient side. As for god is an austronaut, they have a great drummer and more type of unique ambient music. I know these bands are indie but more ambient than indie. Haven't listened to any of the new TWDY tracks.

[@Kinshasa9200]

i agree it would be like calling Pink Floyd ambient just because they have slower songs

[@truthdrums15]

wat effect pedals do they use?

[@stanoreilly32]

Im pretty sure thats his looper or effects

[@easthastings]

i love GIAA. Fragile makes me :'(

[@ilongboardNlax]

i feel like the mood of the bands are similar but they use play differently

[@stanlicasso]

You can compare two bands of the same genre, although whichever you believe to be "better" would be an opinion.

[@godisanaustronaut]

@farmboy504 they are now...

[@relativ6192]

wow. this is sex packaged as music.

[@maneatingorchids]

This most DEFINITELY won't kill me... but it may remind me of a amateur Mogwai, or scrappy Explosions... I guess continuing the tradition of introspective, twinkly white boy build ups can continue to be called "post-rock"... but there is very little "rocking" involved. AND. God bless you digital delay...

[@thomasthejung]

@texaspunk911 E.I.T.S. is actually much better and more complex than This will destroy you. Though they're really good, explosions is infinitely more complex and beautiful...

[@hkli642]

check out EF!!!

[@MrT1ki]

i dont find this music ambient, thats my opinion and im sticking with it.

[@greasyballs12]

lol all these post rock guys are all hardcore indie kids

[@greasyballs12]

its post rock

[@woshyyyyy]

mogwai, fuck buttons, 65daysofstatic, boards of canada, tycho

[@saksilangit]

mono is better when they play minimal..

[@Josh350]

a silver mt.zion is not ambient as it has lyrics. Doesn't fall under TWDY and EITS. More like at the drive-in type of music. Which is amazing music but doesn't really belong in this category.

[@KidASquared]

shouldn't it be ___ and not ______

[@scottsmoosic]

holy fucking skinny

[@redcellardoor1031]

6 years late to your post, but yeah, watching this now in 2019, the first thing I thought was, "Holy shit, Jeremy is fucking skinny!".

[@realhewdshug]

It was a joke. I understand they don't sound like mogwai but this song is so long, useless and drawn out... just like... Mogwai. Listen to Tera Melos. Expand your mind. Get away from standard time. More importantly Go to college.

[@loltothis]

they all sounds the same mistakes lol

[@JimbotronModelOf2112]

Dude, that's garbage.....A silver Mt. Zion is nothing like At the Drive-in! I mean both amazing bands don't get me wrong, but seriously, nothing alike! A Silver Mt. Zion is bordering instrumental/ambient due to their very long songs and epic build ups but some songs have lyrics so I'd consider them post rock, At The Drive-in is based heavily on lyrics as opposed to build ups and instrumental work.

[@Ebroglio2]

this recording makes me feel so fucking far away from the band
