alt-J "Breezeblocks"

[@dk9619]

My daughter (early 20s) turned me on to this song 10 years ago. She's gone now. Thank you for the memory

[@novagray4143]

Im sorry for your loss

[@dk9619]

@Nova Gray Thank you, coming up on 1 year anniversary

[@paulo1787]

Aw man, blessings 🙏 I can’t begin to imagine, sending love ❤️

[@sadajelisa5923]

Send you all my love. 💙

[@johnnyleghorn]

What a legacy she left you in Alt J. Listen to all their music again and again. It only gets better. Incredibly emotive songs. I hope you find some peace in their music. My heart goes out to you.

[@heyheytaytay]

One of their best songs. Was the one that got me hooked on them.

[@saladcartographer822]

Same dude

[@CrystalDuan95]

Omhgghhhh ugh I love this song

[@odessa702]

Same!!

[@richardadshead5323]

That vocal round at the end leading to the harmony and then the outro gets me every time. Just brilliant.

[@BonJoviBeatlesLedZep]

I've listened to Alt-J for dozens of hours but have never seen what they look like and they look exactly like I imagined.

[@ShmaylaRay]

Watch some of their interviews! They are very pleasant people, especially Gus. You can tell they have a real passion for their craft. They take it serious without taking themselves serious.

[@andrewmowbray7035]

Just saw them live and definitely didn’t expect the lead singer to be a big dude with a bushy beard and long hair like a heavy metal singer lol

[@BonJoviBeatlesLedZep]

@@andrewmowbray7035 I mean it's a hipstery beard and hair though! Not like. Norwegian and devil horsny

[@andrewmowbray7035]

@@BonJoviBeatlesLedZep when I saw him live he didn’t have a hat on and he wore a baggy black t shirt. Try picturing him like that, he looked like every front man for a hard rock cover band lol! I was expecting a tall skinny guy with a more “hipster” style beard and stache

[@kyleyesiahsupree]

The lead singer didn’t used to be that big, he’s gained some weight over the last couple years. He looked a lot different in their early days.

[@Snarl_Marx]

Seeing them a few years back was one of the best shows I'd ever been to! Can't believe this album is a decade old!

[@bradley163]

They're unique in the very best way. I remember hearing this album for the first time and knew immediately the world got another iconic band. If you haven't already checked out their new album, do yourself a favor listen to it.

[@shepinchains1]

Wow! It's been 10 years. Geezeblocks.

[@kyral4779]

this is unreasonably funny

[@Dominic201087]

So nice to a band that sounds just like the studio recordings. Very rare these days.

[@LilikoiJammin]

A friend just introduced me to their incredible music…..I 💕 the music- I’m 67 yrs old and love to dance still

[@MamieCee]

Spent the day listening to Alt-J!! Their new album is fantastic, An Awesome Wave was so so meaningful to me, I can't explain how much joy their rhythms, vocals, harmonies, lyrics, their everything, brings me when I hear their music 💓

[@jlbueno0611]

You cannalways count on Stephen colbert and his team to bring some of the best music numbers across the music spectrum . Always quality over popularity 👍🏻👍🏻🙌🙌

[@PepitoMegaChocolato]

their drummer is incredible. Awesome rhythm during the song

[@YinYang528]

Life is Strange introduced me to them, amazing band.

[@rielo9725]

I used this song to get over a breakup(of sorts). Happy 10th Alt-J 🎉

[@lugubriouslegostepper]

Same here, it got me over multiple high school break ups back in the day 🥲

[@marjoe32]

How has it been 10 years these guys have my high words

[@stickyicky6418]

So glad to see them on Colbert. I had a surgeon I used to assist that used to play a lot of their music in the OR and it's still a favorite to vibe to.

[@shariwilliams5209]

Just saw them in concert. Blown away!! One of the best concerts I have been to

[@ElCasteels]

I remember the years between 2013 and 2017 where my friends and I would get busy discovering new music. I have no clue how I stumbled upon Alt-J, but since then they’ve always been on my iTunes. Seeing the title Alt-J Breezeblocks on a video posted Today majorly threw me off because of how long this song has actually been around. I guess I’m trying to say I’m loving this nostalgia!

[@BonJoviBeatlesLedZep]

It was the age of Spotify rising, so even if you weren't on it, it started affecting everything else. Also one of their songs was in Captain America: Civil War

[@brohiggins9332]

OMG I'm saying OMG to something... but sooooo gooood! Thank you alt-J, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and The Late Show! Top Show! 1 guest and such a TOP band held the entire time I couldn't take my eyes off. Great chats too

[@laceys-k7143]

Happy 10 years ALT-J! ⏪ ▶️⏯⏩ 💜

[@Microplancakes]

Awesome!! I’ve loved this song for 7 years now!! It never gets old!!

[@abal6795]

What a song !!! WHAT A SONG !!!! I discovered you through Breezblocks years ago and...since then you illuminate my life with your songs !! Thank you 😍👏😍👏👍🥳🥳🥳

[@galigiri]

Bouta see them live tonight in Hollywood FL :)

[@flobbergassy]

As an adult, Alt-J made me love music again. Can't wait to see them again next month.

[@anthonyco]

I love that he's wearing colbert merch

[@mjrippe]

Saw them around 2015 or so in Manhattan and they had this kid on drums with a metal background - double kick drum and all! He was really nice, hung out backstage after the show while other band members "excused" themselves. Performance was stellar though!

[@justinmraap]

It just dawned on me that 2012 was 10 years ago.

[@mathiasemanuel530]

This was the song that started playing every time I connected my phone to the car bt, I’ve heard it so many times without consent. But still, here I am enjoying the first live performance I’ve seen of this song after so many year’s, it’s kinda beautiful tbh

[@ShmaylaRay]

Next week I'll be seeing them for the second time since their Awesome Wave tour. I am so ready for all the emotions.

[@819phoenix]

This is amazing. Can’t believe it’s been ten years. 🔥🔥🔥

[@SANTANAMNSTR]

[@rubyrayne8]

That album was my AOTY in 2012. I was getting sober and that album helped soothe my rawness.

[@edenrenatacintron4140]

TEN YEARS OF AN AWESOME WAVE?!?!? Damn it's been a great decade with these lads :D

I never liked this song as much as a most of the other ones, but it's cool. I hope they got to perform one of the new tracks too

[@wowitslena]

This was totally unexpected, wow.

[@onlyhappyband]

Great performance. Who was singing the high falsetto harmonies though? Gus was doing the lower in the chorus but who was doing the highs? Backing tracks?

[@ashleyevans3697]

why does this song sound new forever
