Halcyon (Plini) - Pastures - Full Album [HD] - 2011

[@Diye79]

Plini at 19 years old...sublime

[@fractallusion7121]

I've spent probably hundreds of hours listening to Plini, and never knew this existed. I'm so excited!! 🤘

[@MrLoggfreak]

why is this not on spotify :(

[@Chris_Stanley007]

@@MrLoggfreak Truth.

[@joshx555]

Same

[@Zippow76]

I understand

[@borismartins8312]

For me that's the best album of plini

[@TheDrizzle56]

This music makes me feel like my soul is watching its former self with fond memories and I'm not sure what I mean by that but it sounds right in my mind

[@WestCascades]

Well, you just might remember aspects of your past tying you to this or these tunes. We all remember things like this. Sometimes just a brief interlude in a tune takes you back to some former time. That's who we are as humans. No explanation necessary.

[@TheDrizzle56]

His note choice, use of modes, his pick attack and tone. The man is a genius.

[@mopheadthe3rd]

How did i not know this was a thing? settling down for 42 minutes of what im sure will be time well spent.

[@dreamwever87]

Well said man

[@ALENABERKLAND]

And how'd you enjoy it?! Isn't it groovy?

[@mopheadthe3rd]

@ Nathaniel id be lying if i said as much as the new stuff, but is pretty awesome to get an idea of the way they have progressed as musicians then to now :) i thoroughly enjoyed this and have listened through a couple times

[@wallywilsonsworldofmusic7346]

i know the feeling

[@tristansilver9969]

this fucking groove

[@cookie-dq6zj]

When I first listened to noodle for the first time 8-9 years ago I just couldnt get the melody out of my mind,it was like an obsession!

[@dmacrolens]

So you first listened to it multiple times?

[@KevinWickerProductions]

I just discovered Plini a couple of days ago. There's no way to describe his music other than amazing. He takes musical art to a whole different level.

[@ukcats82]

I'm glad you finally found him, I found him in 2015 late

[@theflaggeddragon9472]

A few weeks ago for me. Honestly life changing

[@JackDeMaioMusic]

Wow, so cool to hear Pastures then and now.

[@yevgenydevine]

Still Plini's best album.

[@DylNewman]

I’ve been listening to this album since like 2012 and idk if I’m just being nostalgic but I enjoy this EP more than anything Plini has released.

[@connermartin8510]

the albums don't have this kind of sound rlly

[@harsahaisingh]

I agree bro, this is more to my liking than his Plini stuff

[@TrentTheTraveler]

Hey man. :)

[@DylNewman]

@@TrentTheTraveler fancy seeing you here!

[@DylNewman]

@@TrentTheTraveler everytime I listen to this album I think of how much fun we had back in 2011 and 2012.

[@SypticParasite]

I love every album that Plini has released, but imo Pastures is his best work.

[@krookiemonster2673]

pastures.. this vs. now.... WOW!... its like a small glimpse inside the mind of mr. plini

[@johnmichaelwindham]

The track "Nesting" is the most beautiful, emotion invoking track I've ever heard. All-star songwriting

[@zeropanzer66]

when Django fett plays it makes me feel like i could take on the whole empire myself!

[@trebmaster]

The solo in "Nesting" NAILED it. And "Pastures" was out of this world. Loved the new rendition.

[@johnmichaelwindham]

I love how the quality of the recording sounds like it was done in one of their garages haha it makes me love it so much more

[@SpartanLaserCanon]

Its crazy how I knew this album before I knew who Plini was. This was basically Plini's first album.

[@ALENABERKLAND]

Did you hear it on a djent website forum? Yeah, my friend found Halcyon before Plini, and I heard Animals As Leaders when they first released the debut album. I wish I knew the name of the website my friend showed me all this amazing music on!

[@TCsthesia]

Talking about got-djent.com?

[@Jake-ei2li]

I used to listen to this album so much in the past when it first came out, then I completely forgot about it. I remember the video on had about 1000 views on youtube. So glad I stumbled upon it again. :)

[@zeropanzer66]

this album is something different its indescribable im amazed and cant get enough. these songs hold so much power

[@Meurth]

Waterfall is one of my favourite songs, I wish it were on Spotify

[@pyny89]

Good ol' Noodle

[@ALENABERKLAND]

So good

[@Tawfiq001]

Pastures still hunts me everytime . old and new one

[@TundraCH]

Theres just something about Plini's articulation that is like no other

[@dmacrolens]

That is completely and utterly untrue. 🤣

..and here, I sadly searched plini for hopes of hearing a song I haven't heard before.. I LOVE this!!

[@Po3try27]

Almost feels like, ah yes I knew I would listen to you

[@stevenshort1655]

Can't believe I missed this somehow. Absolutely beautiful.

[@cownandrew7991]

So glad I found this. Waterfall is spectacular.

[@abelstrings4050]

this is an amazing track

[@Unidentifying]

His best work for me..

[@lolzroyce]

Some of this album appears on Plinis newest stuff

[@joeyhathaway8447]

I am relistening to this album now. I first discovered it when I was in high school. It blew my mind then, and I am reminded of the way that felt now. Thank you so much for making this available!

[@johannaIGG]

Best album ❤

[@psiphibrandonhare7120]

I found this album on KZbin by random back in 2012, when the KZbin algorithm was way different haha, had no idea till a few years ago that I was listening to Plini the whole time lol 😆 no wonder I thought it was so different than some of the generic metalcore I was listening to at that time.

[@CosmosArchipelago]

This album is literally goated. GIVE US MOREEEEEE

[@ALENABERKLAND]

Everything from Plini is awesome. Check out Gru Cosmogenesis, Chimp Spanner, Exivious and Gordian Knot

[@CosmosArchipelago]

@@ALENABERKLAND Will do. I have heard Gordian Knot an they were/are excellent.

[@adam872]

I had no idea Plini played on this and I already liked what I'd previously heard.

[@adrianwalsh666]

Yes Mr. PINI PLAYS SO BEAUTIFUL HES BRILLENT GURTARIEST 😢

[@moekrause7110]

Pastures! Would marry this song if it could bear my children. Love both versions.

[@youreaphagatron]

So glad to find more music made by these guys

[@davecrupel2817]

"Plini and Friends" Whaaaaaaaa?!?! :D

[@glenhorn9453]

Awesome, awesome, powerful album! Gifted and awesome musicians. Keep up the good work guys. Hold on to that gifted drummer you have. You are not find another one so gifted as he is. He has made your group soar, not that you others have not, but a drummer sets the mood swing for your destiny. Read Psalms 139 and see just what God thinks about you dudes! It is an awesome compliment about you as an individual. You guys are special people! Don’t over look what He has in store for you men. He love you very much dudes!! Don’t adulterate your gift; use it for His honor and glory man. Blessed, awesome men. God bless.

[@krookiemonster2673]

[@carlnielsjensen5594]

Pretty shure the drums are programmed tho

[@HaidsK2]

lmao get off the jesus crackpipe my dude. none of that shit has anything to do with this mad lads sweet guitar tones

[@iamrom]

its a crime that this album is not available on spotify

[@maikel2321]

Woow thanks for sharing this!! Much appreciated

[@leololozon3]

Ive been checking these types of bands since a while, this one wins by far! Excellent music in here, and a huge TX for the good taste on recording aesthetic... This thing sounds ALIVE

[@downwardsaerial2239]

God, bands just need to release their demos! Both this and chons demo EP are phenomenal and not on any streaming services. Hell, I’d buy this on vinyl. Its that good.

[@wellfedstarvingartist]

This is so fun to listen to

[@ALENABERKLAND]

It's a ride

[@jeremiahfernandez9161]

Is that a pun? Cause I hear a lot of ride cymbals

[@waltertiana4741]

You are exactly right

[@waltertiana4741]

His playability leads your thoughts into many unresolved places

[@remifortin8611]

That's very good unkown instrumental! I LIKE!! :)

[@FringeSpectre]

I would drag my junk through a pile of broken glass if it meant I could have the mental capacity to construct and play music like this. Gotta practice more. Much more.

[@SpartanLaserCanon]

I remember hearing this back in the day when I was in Junior High School and then when I found out Plini was on it years later I was like no wonder it's so good ahahahah. I don't like the lofi quality of some black metal recording, but this has such an interesting lofi-ish production which I like.

[@juliengrote4115]

8:47 When bleed by messhugah (i probably wrote that wrong) goes accoustic

[@basilaydyingm7506]

Masterpiece !!

[@tonyridgway6055]

I love how he goes back into the upbeat from 7:28

[@TheMetatron333]

Tony Ridgway yea it stays on that upbeat for a while kind of makes you uncomfortable it’s exactly why I like prog. Smashes expectations.

haha YEEEAH! i hear what ur talking bout... as much as i fuckin LOVE plini, not one muhfucker can play the way GG does... im sure people get close but no cigar.. im 99.9% convinced that Guthrie can play anything his mind can think of in that moment, and play it perfect. the aristocrats is the real deal when it comes to super groups.

he has refined his riffs fosho,, in this album i can hear hints of all his work. i like the roughness of this production too...

[@wellfedstarvingartist]

who did the drums?

[@mopheadthe3rd]

sounds like a mic'd up kit to me, and not in a very good room for it either lol, but sounds like a damn good improv job with it to me. In some places you can even hear the kick and floor tom slightly vibrating the snares, room mic gain was a wee bit too high so it came through

[@kmmmaye]

It's superior drummer. Simon Grove wasn't involved in this project at all.

[@Lure_Music]
