Team Sleep - Formant

[@davidb.5967]

If I was to meet anyone of you guys in the comment section in real life and you would tell me that you love this very song, then I would know, that we would become close friends for a long time. Anyone who loves this Band, this song, Chino or the Deftones surfing the same wave than I do. Cheers!

[@joshuahowland5061]

Yes sir!

[@ryane6751]

Great comment. This song will be with me forever. Check out "A Song for our Father's" by Explosions in the Sky. It evokes a lot of the same emotions as this song.

[@timburculosis1358]

This song has always hit the core of my being. I suffer from depression but this song reminds me that for every sad feeling I have, there is an equally beautiful feeling to accompany it

[@zensage6774]

🌹 this song is the theme to my life.

One year later I stumble over this old comment of mine, and I got the chills when I saw that people actually commented on what I said. Cheers to all of you guys!

WTF IS THIS?! I've only heard the Woodstock sessions version, for YEARS. And NOW, this finally decides to show up in my searches???? AMAZING.. SO grateful.

[@Bl00dAndThunder]

There's about 30-40 songs worth of unreleased material other than the official studio album. This song is barely scratching the surface.

[@nashL33T]

Been listening to this for half my life and ill never stop. I put my children to bed to this song when they were babies. My favorite song of all time.

[@DigitalBath]

It usually calms me down. I dont think I could ever stop. Im looking to remake this video. Its years in the making though

[@oswaldorodriguez5728]

@@DigitalBath maybe more night light shots, antennas and all that structures in the middle of nowhere would be a great idea. I love to listen this song while I'm parked in lookouts a night, and feels awesome. Just a recommendation tho!

i remember when this was NEW. holy fuck. i was in highschool...going through some heavy shit. now I'll be 38 this year and the knot in my stomach is heavier than ever.... I've said it before but Chino has been one of the only GOOD consistent things in my life.

[@charliecross2]

Same but 40 coming up. Every year or so I get a feeling and need to listen to this again. I remember hearing that instrumental demo version of BLVD. Nights back in the day and just like damn, this is special.

Hope they make a second album before I die.

Love driving listening to team sleep, especially out in the country, music compliments the vast rural areas so well

[@SuperGreyWulf]

It’s definitely a late night vibe type of music. Empty streets/freeway /country side.

Yeah bro I make the same in my country Panama, is just the Best!

11 years later and I’m still coming back to watch.

For no words, this song speaks..

[@sarahhile9385]

the song and video combo gives a really strange vibe. i love it.

[@BlaqueCzar]

that guitar is speaking so much grief and heart ache, its almost heart breaking if you take away the fact its a melody..that's the essence of the blues..its a wonderful song, but at the same time absolutely tragic.

[@VilleGardian]

BlaqueCzar I imagine a couple which broke up a long time ago and accidentally meets and their whole relationship flashes before their eyes...The beauty and pain...and suddenly they do not know if its a dream or reality...

I used to listen to this when I had stage 4 cancer. Despite the melancholy vibe this song puts off, I felt incredibly happy and at peace. By far their best track to date. The new version is a little different, I like this revision the best.

[@lukerogers151]

I hope you've made a full recovery, man.

[@jakemoyers]

something about those satellites moving, the shots over the city, and the haunting yet peaceful vibes from the various instruments make this the most perfect song i have ever heard.

[@Impuritan1]

It’s the radio satellites just scanning that gets me. It’s neat but sad at the same time.

It's amazing to me how Team Sleep uses these random images that look to be from the 60's and gets them to fit in so well with the music. It's perfect together. Love Team Sleep. This band is truely one of a kind.

[@paulatienza1181]

I discovered this song and listened to it while I was traveling to Hawaii to go meet my dad that i haven't seen in 25 years. I will always remember the feeling that this song gave me. A sense of closure on reaching out to a lost family member.. it was so epic

Honestly this Team sleep song. Brings me from 91-2019 ...is the sound that heals, brings me memories that sometimes I wish I lived for , till this day... The skyline ,I picture it like it was Houston Texas... long story short ,is scary growing up older... is scary too loose the first love of your life... buy God got a story n history for some one.

Chino Moreno kicks ass, Team Sleep is one of the few "side projects" that IMO actually measures up to the quality of the work he did with his original band, side projects usually suck

2020 and still on my top played tracks

[@deftones4569]

This song evokes so much emotion... The video goes really well with it as well.. The shots of desolate, barren landscapes make me think of the end of the world ...this song also brings me back to a REALLY dark period of my life when i was struggling with a really bad heroin addiction...i was homeless, walking aimlessly around Manhattan with my headphones in, and this song was playing on repeat... I was so suicidal and felt extremely hopeless.. My older brother had hung himself shortly before that time, and my addiction brought me to such a place of despair and lonliness... I spent like 15 years up to that point in countless institutions, rehabs, detoxes, shelters, jails, and homelessness... Im not religious whatsoever, but i found myself sitting in a courtyard outside of some church..and i began to contemplate suicide...i cried for the first time in years as i sat there, questioning my purpose and reflecting on my life, wondering why i chose the path i did ..asking myself why i couldnt put the drugs down and lead a normal life..i felt incapable...i felt unworthy of love... I felt like a failure and a burden .. I wasnt even man enough to follow through and end my life .. I ended up continuing the cycle that is addiction until i sought out treatment yet again, however, this time i actually stayed clean.. I have over 3 years clean and im still struggling A LOT with depression and hopelessness... I have been isolating and sleeping my life away lately, but despite my lack of motivation and my paralyzing depression, i am still in a better place than i had been when i was in the grips of addiction... I have a LOOOONG way to go before i find happiness..i have to change certain attitudes and behaviors that i inherited, and push myself to find a steady job and get on my feet..i need to learn how to live.. To be responsible ...i am going to school full time and made honors every semester since i began, which is a huge accomplishment for me considering my track record.. Anyway..im sorry for rambling but this song just puts me in deep thought and i have such immense appreciation for music like this...music has helped me get through so many hard times in my life ..times when i was on the brink of giving up .. Music is my therapy..and without it i dont think id be here today

[@yourmaster4444]

I first heard this song shortly after it came out. To this day it is still my favorite of all time!!!

[@translucentorb]

Have to listen to this song again and again and again. Music like this speaks the most, mostly because it need not say anything at all.

[@pixieandpumpkin]

after listening to this I feel like all my energy has been drained - in a good way. just so relaxed and mellow.

[@arminbravo9169]
