Jakob - Blind Them With Science

[@UlverEos]

still a master of their craft after all these years

[@leifdehio2151]

Just discovered Jakob by accident a couple of months ago and I'm absolutely blown away!

[@Justigo]

This is probably the best instrumental song, I've ever heard

[@coryleblanc]

new album in the works, exciting

[@collectablesblog]

8 fucking years! Welcome back masters.

[@yeshuamusichope2973]

In 5 years mixing bands going deaf in a low down dirty venue in Wellington I got to mix hundreds of bands. By FAR the BEST experience I ever had as a sound guy, musician, and live music experiencer was the day these three guys showed up. I am so stoked to hear this and I pray their album reaches the world in ways not dreamed of.

[@dettwideo]

Ever did Amplifier?

[@TheCcmarine]

I'm hearing these guys for the 1st time and your comment has me so intrigued that I just have to look deeper into their catalog of music. Thanks man

[@tripzville7569]

Nice positive post. Jakob are inspirational . Have listen to another New Zealand Ambient/Post rock/Alternative Trip pop band Tripzville and their track "Here you will find the truth' kzbin.info/www/bejne/f5u2oJ2Vp5dlkKc

It's amazing when a damn threepiece can evoke a sense of roving sweeping landscapes; tundra, plains, glaciers, rolling oceans, and titanic mountains. Cheers Jakob

[@DizzyDez613]

For real. I was playing this in my car with a friend of mine in the passenger seat. He couldn’t believe it when I told him they’re a three piece. Lol I don’t know of any musician that has a better understanding of how to use effects such as delays and loopers than Jeff Boyle. Maybe the guys from Mogwai. Jeff times his echo patterns in ways that they weave in and out of each other. It’s just fucking amazing. He’s the only person I know of that can do it this way.

[@Tooldruid]

@@DizzyDez613 100% agree...I was at an autograph signing w Adam Jones from Tool and he mentioned Jeff as one of the best in the biz w pedal effects.

[@timf3099]

'Sounds like they're using a lot of electronics (samplers, repeaters,pedal effects, etc.) to produce a really deep, layered sound. A lot of good mainstream bands have been 3-way ensembles: Rush, ZZ Top, for example, so it's not unusual.

[@sethdrouin3871]

​@@timf3099 Yeah, you've missed the point. Not debating there's a lot of good mainstream bands that are three pieces; certainly there are. My comment was about the ability of a three piece instrumental band to conjure mental imagery of a titanic scope. ZZ Top, to my knowledge, doesn't have any instrumentals, and Rush only has a few. La Villa Strangiato is perhaps in a similar category as Jakob's music in it's ability to invoke imagery in the mind, but other than that, I can't imagine how either of those bands are comparable to Jakob's sound, other than "they're a three piece."

[@ukaszukasz7059]

This song is a masterpiece

[@yeahnahyeah]

It will always blow my mind how such an amazing kiwi band gets no air time by the national rock radio station

[@DizzyDez613]

Jakob should be the official national band of New Zealand. I live in Canada, so obviously they’re never on the radio here. I’m surprised to hear you say they don’t get much love back home either. Damned shame

[@Kyuss7311]

Absolutely agree!!!! These guys are fuxken epic!!! Amazing live 👌👌👌👌

[@kerryskilton3465]

Radio stations don't give a shit about music, that's why they play the same songs every single damn day . Their focus is on advertising only . . Though 95BFM is the exception

[@Nowhy]

Art is not for the radio, the radio is for people that hate anything that makes them feel.. A song: Little Eskimo Jesus - Lonely Tears

Fantastic Atmospheric Sound that takes you too another world. Whats even more amazing is that this band comes from a little city called Napier in New Zealand.....Im proud to call my home city..even though Im living now on the other side of the world.....Jakob the band are real world class...congratulations to these three guys...

[@DizzyDez613]

Not just New Zealand’s best kept secret, but the GLOBE’s best kept secret. These guys deserve all the success in the world. I was lucky to stumble upon these guys about 12-15 years ago. And they remain one of my favourite bands today. Love from Canada 🇨🇦

[@n.e.nichtmaus927]

Seriously, I just can’t get over how amazing the directing and cinematography are… pick any 30- or 60-second span and the video wraps itself around the music and organically follows with it, like a wolf’s fur

[@jalilvazquez4996]

Same as u . But i know jakob since long. But this track is destroyer.

[@the_terrorizer]

These dudes operate as one, they are a single being when playing together, it's hard to describe but it's something I rarely encounter. That crescendo towards the end is heavier than most of my favorite metal songs.

Also, the song writing / arrangement really puts it over. There's great feeling, vision, whatever. Just virtuoso playing would put them in a huge crowd with jazz pickers, prog wankers, etc. This song sounds better every time I listen to it. I've never liked ear pain but I'd really like to hear them playing loud enough to make my liver quiver.
