Braids - Snow Angel (Official Video)

[@tinypinata505]

The last two minutes of this song are so exquisite I want to cry.

[@braidsmusic]

❤️ its okay to cry!

[@1ndi64]

Indeed Joshua... the last two minutes are far more beautiful than the rest.

[@robhoveling7420]

For it's the two minutes before that...

[@MJ-vd8bj]

People who miss their first album will like this a lot

[@andymac1158]

Yep. This my first introduction.

[@MrThomasjeromenewton]

This is one of those songs you never want to end. Truly amazing . Thank you Braids .

[@sophoclese65]

Wow, so 'f'ing brilliant. This song so grabs me emotionally i end up in tears nearly everytime i listen to it. I can't begin to explain the gratitude i feel experiencing such powerful artists even now in my 50s. Thank you.

[@TheWisestWizards]

Was randomly recommended this song, glad I found it!

[@helderjulio7753]

Good song.

[@RustyRen]

I'm so glad I found this band. And so glad they still make amazing music. Thank you for all the emotions and feelings you say for me.

[@tc9694]

Seeing you live in my little town of Ramsgate Kent in the UK with my Girlfriend and about 15 other people in a tiny room was one of the most fantastic experiences of my life and will stick with me forever. I cannot wait for your new album based on the latest releases and hope I get a chance to see you guys live again one day. Thank you so much for all of the fantastic music.

[@TreesPlease42]

I keep coming back to this! What a powerful message.

[@iniquitousgod]

This is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever listened to. I keep coming back because I'm enthralled with every aspect of it. I wish every piece of music could move me like this could. I tell everyone about it, but I still feel so selfish to enjoy it. Thank you so much for your work on this. It has helped me through so many fucking dark nights.

[@braidsmusic]

Aw, thank you Augybear. This song offered me a way to grieve and process a lot of what I find is consuming me but hard to put my finger on. It's powerful to know that it has also helped you.

[@iniquitousgod]

@@braidsmusic the music compliments the concept so well; the quiet moments of introspection, the deafening feeling of our own critiques, it's just all so perfect. My depression felt just like this song, and listening to it helped me to get to a peaceful place in the end. Thank you so damn much for your art.

[@mikegillis8061]

Love for you guys, so much, from Nashville, TN, USA (and beyond)

[@braidsmusic]

Can't wait to see you there.

[@mcmSEA]

Just discovered this band, wish I'd known of them sooner now!

[@Andy71]

This has to be one of my favorite songs of all time. So raw and honest. The build up is just exquisite and is a journey to the end. I listen to this song so much and never gets old.

[@braidsmusic]

wow

[@Andy71]

@@braidsmusic 7 months later and I literally still listen to this song every day. Just does not get old, and yes, still my favorite song of all time.

[@alexanderblack89]

Almost a year since its release but feels like about ten. Thank you then and now for this incredible song!

[@morgankw89]

This song reaches me, and evokes emotions that are probably only well-defined by a German word.

[@braidsmusic]

What is the WORD!!???

[@morgankw89]

@@braidsmusic Probably weltschmerz, a sense of melancholy and world-weariness. Or sehnsucht, described as an inconsolable yearning for something difficult to describe, like a completion or contentedness.

[@wadewilson84]

@@braidsmusic the WORD is 'Muschischmelzer'.

[@Euchari]

I cry every time I listen to this. Thank you for making such powerful music 💗

[@lamadala]

listen this 4 years now,sosososos goood

[@shivaperica9987]

To say it's amazing is to say nothing. This song is about me, my life, exactly. Thanks again, Braids, you put an emotional bullet in my heart.

[@mikegillis8061]

P.S. - 'December' is one of the greatest pieces of music I have ever heard.

[@TreesPlease42]

Hi! This helps me a lot given the world we live in. Thank you so much for all of your work.

[@sherleychristian2684]

this song has early 2000 band music vibe and i love it

[@taidufenzi70]

Absolutely incredible and gorgeous. Bravo! Song of the year. Thanks to KEXP for playing it and introducing me to this great band.

[@vincenzograsso1530]

Such a stunning song, a real jewel. And the outro could last FOREVER, it just melts your heart.

[@davidip82]

I gave up my life, so that this song could bring in good news for billions of people.

I'm crying. This has to be one of your best songs ever. Thank you.

Love Braids, so glad they are releasing an album (after 5 years!)

[@giancarlocapelloni3788]

Ragazzi, siete fantastici. From Italy with love.

[@pierfrancescovalbusa2906]

Guys, you are the future of music!

[@remy88_z]

Braids... wow.. This is a suuuper heartfelt work of art. Musical craftsmanship paired with stunning, REAL, CLEAR lyrics that speak to you, that sink into your soul like a spiritual time-bomb. As I watch this on loop in July 2020, I feel stunned by the timing of the original release. How incredibly prophetic. What's really personal to me in this is that I live in Montreal, and these night landscapes I've wandered are so beautifully portrayed (congrats to the director of photography on this, holy moly), I feel a deep connection to the vibe here. To make matters even "worse" that dog looks soooo much like my old pupper Skippy, RIP in peace lil budd. Back when we used to live in the countryside, my Dad was jogging and out of the bushes came a random pupper who just followed him home. He lived a good life (we think he was like 14-15 by the time he passed). Anyways, such a gud boi in this clip! Gosh that shot indoors, cuddling, wow.. The colour grading is soooo-o-o-o on point. Jeez. Simon Stalenhag vibes, Burial vibes..... damn damn damn.

[@braidsmusic]

Thank you so much for sharing Rèmy!

[@jonahmcgarva]

This is so good and PROGGY! Unreal track. 👍

[@DannyWilliamsDj]

I’m sorry you’ve been born into a period of musical history where shit soulless music made for maximum profit is king.. this song is epic, up there with the greatest and so are you.. immense musical talent, passion, feeling, soul and and actually something of value to say 🥰

[@d0ntb0th3r]

now one of the few songs that can make me cry

[@curryjerk7-116]

Looking up memories.. Great new track.. doing it right.

[@lactosdog]

I absolutely love u guys and can’t wait to see you in Ohio one of these days!!!

[@Chris-qk8uz]

Love it, I've been listening to this every day since you guys released it. I've been a fan since Set Pieces. Saw you once in SF at the Swedish-American hall, back in 2013 I think. Awesome show. I saw that you were planned to come to Amsterdam in April, where I live now, so sad that coronavirus postponed that. I hope that you'll still come visit when it's safe for shows again, because I have to hear this track live. Can't wait for the new album, love you guys, peace.

[@braidsmusic]

Wow, cant believe you've been with us since Set Pieces! That truly warms my heart. We've recently announced the new European tour, scheduled for fall 2021! Tune in this Thursday Oct 29th to catch our 24 hour wwworld tour live stream! Should tide you over til we can come tour for you in person!

[@crichta]

This track is FU-CKING A-MA-ZING. It made me cry and I don't know why. I've never ever cried while listening to a song for the first time. What was that?

[@charlesolivierwm]

Same here. Not just a few tears when watching a cute video or something. Like real crying lol.

[@takoinche]

This song is Braids reaching full maturity as a band. Easily one of the most underrated band of the last decade.

[@simonpieman1358]

Fantastic song

[@jonahmcgarva]

This song was perfectly timed for release today......😷😢

[@waternyx]

im a mama... and i wonder what its like to do what you are doing. love will be found.. again. .. maybe we do share souls in this world haha. i like to play banjo..and write songs too :P i dont know how to be in spotlight/camera though. so.. thanks for sharing you .. being an aunty is super special too... just... being a part of kids lives... sharing creativity..insight.. and curiosity.. and exploration.. that is beautiful and valuable.

[@charlesolivierwm]

This just gave me so much chills (and a bit of tears). WOW! I've been waiting for it since I heard it live. This is so great.

[@weekendthreat5576]

Just heard this song elsewhere and had to come comment on it. The only other time lyrics have shook me like this was watching your performance of "Miniskirt" at the Polaris awards ceremony a few years ago. I had to stop everything I was doing to listen and it really left an impression on me as a non-white male haha. Truly powerful stuff, thank you for making music

[@giuliag80]

Beautiful 💕

[@andymac1158]

Heard this on Chin Music. 94.9 radio western Fridays 12-noon. Awesome show. Can be streamed. Anyway, this was last song on show last Friday. I had to stop working and dance beside radio. Then shit got real. I have been sharing.

[@Deperuse]

Veerry good!

[@gumeme]

Amazing song and the spoken part is so badass! also some the rip from portishead vibes in that last bit

[@Mileke]

i thought the same about the rip

[@francisbroka9471]

Enough, enough with comparisons, please!! Braids is Braids!!

[@jeanzam]

true re protishead but i thought it was more Nils Frahm...all good anyway

[@ughaghost]

Every single/video so far has had completely different energy. This album feels like...a journey. I'm so very excited, will preorder soon. Gonna be a weird experience playing Animal Crossing to it though lol.

[@gcarraig]

And... somewhere around 5:45 as the song swirls in the narrator's indulgent self-immolation, KZbin inserted an UnderArmor ad, sublimely underscoring the song's message quite scrumptiously. We're all so desperately F*CKED.

[@gavinthurston8345]

Great tune - really like it.

Influence yeah - but not a patch on Tempest lyrically.

Feeling bad about others not having as good a life as you is totally natural and is part of empathy which is the most important part of being a civilised human.

I never knew I could feel this woke !

[@gabormolnar2208]

that monologue!!!!!!!! :O :O :O

[@KuroTheBlackCat]

This song, especially the Mother-part goes so well with: "Make Kin, Not Babies!" (Donna Haraway: Staying with the Trouble, 2016) A splendid masterpiece. Again with the words of Haraway: truly unthinkable times. Inspired to dive even deeper into my researches and think about queer-feminist ecologies.
