Forest Swords - War It (Official Audio)

[@calicurtis2388]

One of my best friends had the dreams of living off the land and helping the fresh Salmon supply chain in the upper North West. Specifically planting his feet in Sitka Alaska. He lived his dream. His dream came with the same pains that followed him from Pennsylvania to Alaska. He was strong as an Oxe. He worked with his hands. He rock climbed and cut down trees. He hunted, fished and foraged. Amongst all his work his anxiety and stress followed him. Unknowing to all that cared for him. I thought he was happy and didn't stay in as frequent contact like I should have. He would send me smoked salmon and things he made and I would send him leather, artwork and music. This was the last track I sent him one evening. He replied that he loved it. This song as well as the album art embodied his personality. He later took his own life. I miss my Buddy alot. This track is a part of a long list of things I miss about my brother in arms. To all those with distant friends or relatives I can't stress enough to tap in with em. Take time to share memories and ask how they're doing. Connect through music and through anything else you share with them. People can slip away in a heartbeat. Much love. Rest easy Coray.

Thank you for sharing this.

[@ryuk6073]

This track is absolutely awesome. I love how it keeps growing in intensity and tension, adding electronics and tribal percussion, and finally exploding. He's one of the greatest musicians of today and tomorrow.

[@timothymartin9085]

Feels like someething I've been waiting for my entire life.

[@robelicit]

Timothy Martin ...Yes 🎯🎧🎹

[@eco999]

This Masterpiece is way too underrated. It is one of his best compositions, I dare say.

[@martindembek9833]

nie jest zle :D

[@ricardotracker4047]

And there's another "underrated" comment...

[@iamdiaze446]

You have much power in your sounds, never heard anything like that, peace man

[@giovannaliparelli3676]

this explains so much my pain .. better than if i try to explain myself

[@pekitas]

you sir, are my new favorite sound. This project just became my background music for who knows how long.

[@seBcopTer]

Dani Siem it's pretty good in the front-ground too!

[@44gg37]

background music? it's insulting

[@pekitas]

how ? I'm a designer and I've been working ( designing, composing, editing, etc ) while listening to this whole project not too loud on my headphones. Maybe you are picturing something different. I see your point but perspective is everything. Take care

[@Mindwormbified]

I like to drop a log while drinking Lavazza coffee and listening to this. Is it really insiulting? I mean, defecation is one of the most important physiological things you do daily to survive. You don't have to be designer to have proper background.

[@robelicit]

Dani Siem ..I agree.. I'm also an artist, used to work in CG studios for animation on games and various 3D projects,,, as well as some fine art and illustration during my private\\weekend time, and most artists will agree that background atmospheres are critical for getting to the right frame of mind to do hi quality, creative work... so it is a compliment to musicians who make spacey analog or digital tronica, are similar downtempo or experimental music such that they create soundtracks for daily creativity.🎯🚀🎧🎹🍸

[@saltycracker2344]

Dear Forest Swords this is great!

[@patryksienko9989]

loving how intensive it is. especially around 3:00.

[@Lone_wolf--br7fi]

Try. Lorn!!!

[@Flangegod]

Being a complete Wumpscut fan, I finally find someone who talks in his language in electronic instrumentals.

[@Lone_wolf--br7fi]

Lolz

[@Maxianaconda]

So, so beautiful.

[@Dimitrija69]

The whole album is amazing swords

[@Lone_wolf--br7fi]

Try lorn!!!!

[@pierrethehandsome2518]

This album is transportive.

[@kakhak]

Thanks for your sweet music.

[@LuredDecoy]

the ending is perfect

[@alwayslate4081]

Forest Swords was on my “early-day-discovery-list” at Pukkelpop 2017...and my oh my, what a wonderfull discovery it was......Great atmosphere, great sound, great visuals...in short AWESOME performance!!!!.... Keep making those sweet sweet sounds!!!! /me = Huge fan +1

[@GregDannerVideos]

ooooooooooh so much texture

[@SeipherNL]

You aren't doing it wrong if no one knows what you're doing!

[@amandabrewer9780]

i don't even know what I am doing.maybe that's why,THANK YOU.i m gonna try harder to not try.peace be with you.

[@SeipherNL]

@@amandabrewer9780 Well you aren't doing it wrong, that's one thing you can hold on to ;)

[@monolizm]

when music speaks to your soul, bypassing shitty mind

[@MedsBand]

We're listening to your album man. We hear Woodkid, Arca, Bjork in it. Awesome job! Keep it up

[@aahxzen]

I hear Forest Swords in it

[@MedsBand]

Solid answer

[@nickn2794]

More like you hear others' work that sound like this into Bjork and Woodkid. They have teams of people that produce their stuff.

[@Lone_wolf--br7fi]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/sKLOdWyGpa1rjZo :)

[@yevgeniyaleshchenko849]

@@nickn2794 Bjork is largely involved in making her music, she is not just a singer. I assume same goes to Woodkid. Of course they have collaborators but doesn't mean they are not involved. Research facts before insulting artists.

[@dearestcomrade8638]

Incredible!

[@Spiritual_but_not_religious]

Ooooh mis hermanos, está con madre esto, por un momento me recordó a Lorn. Bendiciones 🤝

[@eco10eco]

I cried manly tears listening to this and I do not know why. I forgot how it feels to cry. It was cathartic, I felt genuine joy and I thank you for that.

[@KyryloMelnyk]

It's really good 👌👌👌

[@adlfrn9524]

this music is so intense, especially around 4:20. Submerged by images I can't define.

[@TalonNO]

Yo you need to lay off the greens

[@Lone_wolf--br7fi]

Try lorn!!! AND WITH THE GREEN!!!!

[@spacesound6819]

Really great track

[@joniswe]

EXCEPTIONAL.

[@herettahuston9457]

[@tonebone2895]

[@divestor]

[@fregderk2611]

pushing the boulder up so others can understand why it comes back down

[@Gavdrake82]

Thanks Melon

[@RevenantXVI]

Negan is that you? I see that's how you become so strong.

[@Emmettaug]

Does anyone know the story behind he picture?

[@Pablo-dv3fx]

Claro boludo como por ejemplo que estaba haciendo con esa piedra el tipo?

[@Prophet017]

Maybe it's Sisyphus but he got an idea to have fun with the rock, instead of doing useless labor, look how happy he is :)

[@JG-on2wx]

Or it could be atlas, lifting the weight of the world.

[@johnyixcks]

It's a picture Forest Swords found (in an old magazine I think) and based the album artwork around thevinylfactory.com/features/forest-swords-compassion-artwork-interview/

[@muttsmuttt]

man lifts rock

[@costando]

love it ;)

This song helps me not to kill myself

[@mikhailmorgul1244]

Nice

sometimes people have to say enough is enough and discard what they need to throw away...

[@Dimitrija69]

Great Show Ergo

[@txemacrey]

What is the origin of the photograph used, which is the author?

[@wazthatme]

This music sounds like how the world of half life 2 sounds like...

[@Irina_Utimisheva]

Я касаюсь Гения!

[@Lone_wolf--br7fi]

So this is what its like to be heavily stoned

[@TalesfromVaporFashion]

Lone_wolf- 164561 Doubly so I presume

[@chaschmerscholucasaege]

This has major The Caretaker Everywhere at the end of times vibes whilst also being completely different.

[@chaschmerscholucasaege]

@HexagramMan Hmm why could this be? 😂

[@armer18]

Semenuk brought me here

[@jamesadamscherub100]

I definitely prefer first 3 mins of this track 🖤

[@mlembrant]

this music makes me hungry.. i want portion of taco fries with chedar cheese now.. like .. right now.. I have to go downstairs to get something :(

[@simritmalhi7947]

is it really?

[@demonwelder5179]

Пиздатая тема.

[@redmatte-92]

Fantano strikes again

[@redmatte-92]

y though?

[@redmatte-92]

I'd tell you to grow up first,if you aren't 12 years of age and have that attitude you're fucking pathetic.He recommended it and there's been lots he's gave good scores which I disliked so stfu

[@mymom5248]

God forbid someone like a music reviewers taste, people are so fucking cynical

[@eraart7234]

+Trevor Brosiedon Agreed. Some people (like me) would have never found this album, let alone this artist, if not for Anthony or any other reviewer. There's so many artists out there, it's hard to keep track.

[@zhohnmusic]

Coming here 10 months later, I have to say that looking through labels such as NinjaTune, or Honest Jon's Records are good places to start looking for underrated music, as well as youtube channels like Tape Counter, Provocative Educative !, When Dubs Cry, and Saturn Archives. Looking through these suggestions opens up a whole new world of music that might surpass what fantano reviews
