Neurosis - Aeon

no video, only audio
(without ending part - I had to cut it because of its length)
thx for 50 000 views, could we reach 100k? :)
from "Through Silver in Blood"

[@hatepooper69]

My favorite thing about Neurosis is that it takes a special kind of person to get it. The music not only touches the soul, but completely embodies it and becomes one with it.

[@Slooober]

" I'll smoke what he's having..."

[@evpat69]

when i want to get over my failures and mistakes i listen to this song. Thank you Neurosis!

[@RamHornBeast]

This song is mental. Neurosis never cease to blow me away.

[@NosferatusLair]

i just found this band, and man... i just bought 4 of their albums already online, i been listening to videos on youtube here all day, i love their stuff, so many styles of creativity

[@trentlloyd]

just tarted listening to these guys not too long ago. I don't know what took me so long. I am slowly but surely falling in love with the music

[@xXScreamXox]

man i love how it starts out. it really sets the rest of the song up.

[@batthefat3952]

Hi everybody. Usually, I never let some kind of message. I know NEUROSIS since Enemy of the sun album. I just want to say to those who says "Isis is a shit, some other band is blablabla..." don't say such things. NEUROSIS are the fathers of this kind of bands, like TOOL, MESHUGGAH or even PRIMUS are fathers of other bands... Just appreciate this greats bands, we who listen them know that this music is not for everybody, just introspect and find our own peace...

[@OOverflowW]

Incredible song ! Its end is powerful, melodious and frightening at the same time !

[@EyesofNeurosis]

It warms my heart to read these comments, and others have found this common bond. Neurosis is not a band, it is a religion, possibly the only one i have complete faith in.

[@nebelung1]

Best song of Neurosis, together with 'Through Silver in Blood'.

[@psychicvacuum83]

I'm already a fan of their music, but hadn't heard any song from that album except for Locust Star. Aeon... amazing song, I'm really astonished! :-O

[@falcon12]

Thank you for uploading this masterpiece! Damn! I see so many visions in the sound pf this track! Neurosis knew their shit! And still knows their shit!

[@selmatrix]

Best album and best song by Neurosis.

[@BryanEKS89]

Agreed, everything by Neurosis is amazing. Although I'm sort of an oddball when it comes to favorites, my favorite album by them is The Eye of Ever Storm

[@eneoch]

I'm going to see them in live in august ... this is one of the best fucking bands ever ...I love them ... thanks for addind this great song from this great band

[@Sanjaanjanjaa]

Savrseno... Bez ostatka.

[@MyHerpderp]

From 7:00 close your eyes and meditate, its incredible

[@insainbassist]

I heard about this band and was expecting some generic metal shit but figured I'd give them a chance, fortunately I was pleasantly surprised. I know what I'm going to be listening to for the next couple months.

[@Tomatenfrau]

thank you for this song!

[@symptomy]

it's a hard road being the scrabble player, but after a triple word score & the thrill of victory it makes it all worth while

[@Joshuk1984]

All I have and want in my life, is my motorbike, stereo and enough money for a beer at the weekend.

[@MissMustis]

uno de los mejoooress temaaas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Wysch]

Sometimes I just wanna to hear it without putting the record to the player :-) I'm really loking forward to see them live in August, haha :-) Best band in present days.

[@Wysch]

None of their records is bad. But some musical critic wrote (I guess) in 2000, that Through Silver in Blood is the best metal album ever. I agree with him... Even if I love more A Sun That Never Sets.

[@lasagesse22]

What I liked te most in times of grace album, was the intensity. One of the neurosis members lost his wife. And made this album just afther. You can feel it. Also, there is the album Grace fro tribes of neurot. When you play neurosis Times of grace album simultanous with tribes of neurot Grace album, you just get a new album, a new music, much more intence. Its the album that made me fan of them. But I also totly agree with you, none of their records are bad.

[@Wysch]

Album "Through Silver in Blood" was released in 1996. So, the best metal record ever is now twelve years old. And so is this song.

[@mtmorar]

And now your comment is 12 years old. Time flies, and this album refuses to get old.

[@Wysch]

@@mtmorar It actually gets better with every year.

[@p2psux5]

modern society is BASED off of the quest for knowledge. technology itself IS the quest for knowledge, and technology has been the basis for human survival since the dawn of mankind. It's really a shame that humans have become so reliant on discovery and science, when a few indigenous tribes are still able to realize the beauty in simplicity, which is essentially what this song is about. I'm not saying technology is a bad thing, but as a species, we've come to use it as a crutch.

[@sapiopneumoni]

You are absolutely right but if they were doom not death... the best song they have ever recorded!! let it play in a dark room and enjoy...

[@felixdeville]

goddamned...there f*ckin'awesome..what a great song..Neurosis RULES!!

[@dirtroadgames1406]

personal anthem

[@p2psux5]

im totally with you there. its like what serj tankian said, about civilization being "over", and rather than trying to save it, we should be looking forward and creating the future instead. neurosis and isis and all of the post-metal community are part of a new ideology which expands on the unknown, but we havent quite reached that unknown yet, i think.

[@Wysch]

Yes, it is. The full song is for example on official Neurosis website but I had to cut it off, 'cause it was simply too long for youtube :-) Damn it, the end is really epic, like the whole song.

[@p2psux5]

the quest for knowledge is just another aspect of human greed.... don't deny it....

[@nonbob]

@mixolydian671 yeah, but this record has a nice crustpunk-sound too, but it has a ton of layers on top of it, it´s huge.

[@deadguy29]

Amazing...

[@malonemuert]

my favorite Neurosis song

[@mangafan7887]

Mastodon and Neurosis the gods of metal,hail them both!! or face the consequenses!!!

[@pbyshelley]

the violinist at the beginning is hideously bad, but somehow that makes the atmosphere that much more intense. No idea how they did that, but it's fucking awesome.

[@symptomy]

@LifeUnderTheSwatter after reading that I feel my life is complete

[@Dimebag08RIP]

I think anything with some relativity to Neurosis is fucking awesome.

[@pdude1911]

I hope this song will still be played by our descendants many aeons from now.

[@ellfisher07]

You're actually aware that they actually pretty much formed their own genre of music, post-metal, which really no relation to emo music whatsoever. They infuse hardcore punk and doom metal to create a more atmospheric sound. Not only that, they're actually quite popular within the sludge and alternative metal scenes.

[@InkDropFalls]

this has a slight hint of CONVERGE in this tune ...............not this band but just this song has that drowning converge wash sound i love

[@LazelDazel]

I listen to every style that isn't draggy, whiny, or "sad".. Since you have "diverse" tastes, check out a few of these bands.. Sleep The Sword T.S.O.L. Satyricon Acid Bath Demoniac Necrophagist Odious Mortem Brain Drill If you don't know em, you ought to, all are talented, and awesome.

[@FlakMeister]

This song is interesting as it ends on lighter note than the other tracks of the album. The landscape that is painted before me when listening to this is one of chaos and despair, you feel as if having trudged through mud for eons. Mankind is marred by conflict, fear and hopelessness, however, at the climax at the end you get this feeling of awe and transcendence, the notion that we can evolve. This track is the "Also Sprach Zarathustra" for a more cynical and disenchanted 21st century.

[@ACDC666SatrianiVai]

well i like PanterA and neurosis, and other styles of metal 2, viking/pagan such as ensiferum and stoner/sludge such as electric wizard. Why does no1 else appreciate varieties of music?

[@RisingJake]

If you're happy, squallor doesn't matter.

[@felixdeville]

Doom metal rules!!! Neurosis is the best!!!

[@TheCenterOfDisease]

@blotchy67 87% cooler you actually are hitting a good point there; music owned/have says alot about a person ^_^ Check out Lycia, Distance & Diary of Dreams; this song is quite dreary so seemed sorta fitting. Lycia being the Ultimate bridge band of all transient forms of soundscapes to Nirvana, Nebula's Galaxies etc T.p.W.

[@patches0007]

Mastodon has topped it

[@jubjub2112]

@xraydelta1 Excellent!! I figured you would dig the Swans . . . just fucking amazing music!! And I agree . . . I can't imagine a fan of Neurosis NOT loving the Swans . . . I actually discovered Neurosis because it is one of the bands Michael Gira likes (he is the lead singer and force behind the Swans). I don't know where you are located . . . but the Swans just got back together and are touring!! Now, mind you, their music isn't as heavy as it used to be . . . but it is every bit as

[@openmy3rdeye]

from 8:30 and on it's somehow the best part

[@DesolationRow0]

what the hell are you talking about? Neurosis have their own religion, but they have their own private religions, every single member of them, which comes through as their music. Listening to albums like "A Sun That Never Sets" is a religious experience... man, listen to "From The Hill" off that album. I feel like i'm rising up to kiss the lips of God.

[@Wysch]

@EyesofNeurosis I believe Scott would say, that they (like Neurosis) make music, and MUSIC is THE religion. The older I am, the more I start to understand, what they wanted to say with their music.

[@Wysch]

I was surprised I couldn't find this song on youtube. This is first song from Neurosis that made me cry. So I uploaded it. It's a pity this song is too long for youtube :-( The ending part

[@nebelung1]

As long as the criticism is constructive. Otherwise it will only piss people off, which is very unnecessary.

[@p2psux5]

"no it isnt" is just an opinion... i believe that it is. who knows which one of us is right, or both of us

[@RetroVertigo_]

@InkDropFalls Both Neurosis and Converge have been influenced by quite similar bands, really. Godflesh, Swans, Joy Division, Voivod, it's all there, hence why these bands often have the same kind of fanbase, really

[@luke666808g]

This is what Pink Floyd would sound like if they were Death Metal.

[@kalamay]

OMG. so fucking good!!!

[@kaliforniakorpse]

shit, it does not get any more apocalyptic then this shit right here. especially the second half of the song.

[@Pilgrimatthegreyofdawn]

@blotchy67 Hmm, that depends, I think...I personally like Black Sabbath's frst six and DT's first six around the same, not because of the technicality in them (which isn't a bad thing I don't think) but because of the emotion behind them. Dream Theater used to make really profound and emotional music, but since then they've become obsessed with being as progressive and technical as possible, and they've gone really down hill

[@jubjub2112]

@bloodyrockfire Agreed . . . I am going to see the Swans live this year . . . can't fuckin' wait!!! I was supposed to see Killing Joke at the Hollywood HOB . . . but I had a family obligation that kept me from the show . . . had to give up the tickets!! AAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHH!!!!! Saw Killing Joke a couple of years ago at HOB . . . AWESOME SHOW!!!!! I keep going back to The Death and Resurrection Show . . . cranking it to 11 on my volume nob . . . and blowing my earholes out . . . bad-ass!!

[@alcoholya]

@JohnCarpenterPro excellent appraisal... this comes from what Zero knowledge and appreciation for dark ambient metal?

[@xXxfallenangelxXx100]

sorry canibal corpse IS a death metal band i did a mistake!!!:$

[@BonzoBanzai]

When oh when are these gods gonna be in Europe next????

[@CyanideSovereign]

Not true, I'm not really sure where the line draws (When a band is DMetal) but "Decapitated" is quite unique as is "Red Harvest and Meshuggah and Gorerotted.

[@sandwichesgood]

FUCK YES I LOVE YOU!!!!

[@ToolOfTrade]

Yeah I tried to introduce this band, to an open mind girl I am friends with. She is more into girl bands like Hole, and the Detroit Cobras, and of course loves the Vaselines and Heartless Bastards. She couldn't get Neurosis at all, and at one point I think she was utterly scared of this band. She thinks Tool is deep and moving music, and yet thinks this is to much for her lol.

[@PanosSomethingDoesNotExist]

I dont think violins existed in ancient times.

[@deezeeweezy925]

@blotchy67 Got damn! LMAO! Now that's what the hell I'm talking about!!!

[@niftycakes]

If you think Gojira is the only death metal band doing anything new you're not looking hard enough. Go listen to Gorod, Psycroptic and Gnostic.

[@uhltron]

Jeez! i was wondering when the music would start.

[@CyanideSovereign]

Sorry the last two weren't DMetal.

[@jubjub2112]

Just listened to this again . . . by the way . . . It's really growing on me . . . I can absolutely see why Gira digs this band . . . the intensity doesn't match his early Swans . . . but nothing does . . . but this is very intense . . . it must, in some way, bring him back to his youth . . . when the anger, rage, hatred was completely unrefined . . . and terrifying . . . This is good stuff! Do they still perform live?

[@luke666808g]

agreed

[@aresholemywayout]

Oh so NOW the Mastodon fans get it lol

[@Zlazuja]

Don't feed the troll, please.

[@radMisc]

6:55 6:55 6:55 6:55 6:55

[@Wysch]

@OreillyORLY agreed

[@Joshuk1984]

shop?... what's that gotta do with anything? I don't care whether or not, I have a computer.

[@lasagesse22]

Times of grace is not bad neither tbh ^^

[@joszua69]

Jak ta lala

[@rontgens]

Beginning sounds like a gloomy version of stairway to heaven.

[@ballpeenbaby]

Who in deaf huck disliked this?!

[@xXxfallenangelxXx100]

I have only one thing to say....canibal corpse is not a death metal band...

[@ScoopDoogan]

@blotchy67 Dude no. Just no. They did a study, and turns out, (Excluding of course, France and Canada) Owning their records only makes you 86.35% cooler. Sorry bro, it's the truth. ;D lol.

[@teethofghosts]

@hatepooper69 sldjfasdfjasdf pretentious pretentious pretentious pretentious. "It takes a special kind of person to GET the depth of this super super deep music." It's fucking atmospheric sludge, dude. They're awesome but goddammit. This is why I never talk to metal fans.

[@gab136]

@veryboredpug He would be some musician if he had talent etc. But not a true artist. He would be only a pathetic actor. Feeling is the most important "skill" that honest and true artist needs to have. But you can't be an honest musician if you can't write and play what you hear in your head. That's my definition of being an artist, to play what's inside your soul.

[@macleodponeage]

This isn't death metal... and I personally think they would sound more like Opeth... But I can see where you're coming from...

[@macleodponeage]

Ya, but im referring more to progressive rock/acoustic side of floyd. I can see where you are coming from though. This shit rules, weather or not it sounds like pink floyd death metal.

[@jubjub2112]

@xraydelta1 fucked up and disturbing. Gira has never stopped making music . . . he just did so through other projects (Angels of Light, for instance) . . . which is why the new Swans album doesn't suffer from what so many other reunited bands new albums suffer from . . . a dearth of creativity . . . and virtually no passion or soul . . . this is simply an continuation of his journey! I am so fucking amped to see them live!!!! Anyway . . . glad you dig the Swans . . . turn others on!!

[@jubjub2112]

This isn't bad . . . I might have to grow into this band. I do like that they aren't just formulaic . . . and they have a good, heavy sound while understanding the beauty of minimalism . . . Still . . . when I want to hear dark, fucked up music . . . I inevitably turn to the Swans . . . no band before or since has topped them in my book. Listen to their first album Filth . . . and then Cop . . . and then Greed. It will crush your brains

[@jubjub2112]

@Disnamesucksass Odd thing to be annoyed at

[@ShaneCawthon]

No.

[@spellbound69]

wtf are you talking about here ? Is it so important who is better ? Just listen

[@luke666808g]

pink floyd death metal wouldn't sound like opeth, because pink floyd is too much like atmospheric stoner music, kind of like this.

[@miazza94]

What The Fuck is This??
