This Will Destroy You: New Topia | Music Video | Adult Swim

[@TheAnimeMan]

How did I only find this now. Good to see some people out there giving TWDY some love

[@uss_liberty_incident]

I'm pleasantly surprised to see you here. You should try this video on a tab or two m8, it's a treat.

[@LookitsTook]

I'm thinking this now man :T

[@steventonche1037]

I'm 3 years late to this comment but I see you are also a man of culture

[@abragramstinkin1345]

I thought the name of the video was "This will destroy you" in actuality, it did. thank you

[@InsetHere]

Matthew Montemayor it's the bands name

[@abragramstinkin1345]

Ben P oh thanks dude I didn't figure that out until you told me.

[@connorchapman1232]

Adult Swim: the last bastion of true audio-visual art on Earth.

[@Sportfuck]

Too bad it's shitty.

[@dylanflow3154]

Very Fast clearly not open minded enough, leave bro, cartoons aren't made 4 u

[@Sportfuck]

Dylan Hiles Hmm. Why is it that, the split second someone says a different thing from what you think, they are instantly "NOT OPEN MINDED" and things are not "MADE FOR THEM?" Is that your personal demonstration of "OPEN MINDEDNESS?"

[@dylanflow3154]

You're a nugget shut up

[@Sportfuck]

Dylan Hiles Powerful demonstration of illiteracy.

[@ThatGuy-tu2zd]

I came back to this gem after so many years it's still gold

[@fayeburning.108]

This video was legitimately too good. Both the music and the artwork were so amazing that I feel like experiencing both at the same time caused me to not appreciate them enough.

[@MrMorelloJr]

once we open the doors of perception everything appears to man as it is: infinite .Huxley

[@TheLibran1]

Huxley was riffing off William Blake, well worth looking into.

[@carpeimodiem]

That's my favorite ninja turtle

[@jonah558]

Thank you adult swim for having one of my favorite bands on here

[@The_Sock_]

I have no idea what to say, I can barely speak my thoughts out loud. This gave me emotions I didn't know existed. I am grieving and angry and depressed and joyful.. and yet calm what

[@MilkDestroyer]

Something about this makes me really emotional

[@mr.barlow634]

That's what Post Rock does.

[@mnmlst1]

It's because it is a This will destroy you music. It's what their music does. It's what post rock does, actually.

[@cthulhu674]

i love you adult swim for making my acid trips amazing

[@xXEpilepsyIIGamingXx]

Well i love your kvelertak profile photo

[@zxtzv]

lmao

[@melancholicrussia]

Aye im like 420

[@DerpyGrump]

Cthulhu I’ll just stick to this, considering my luck

[@joshuasousa28]

Righttt

[@tecky17]

This was one hell of an unbelievably beautiful journey.

[@xenoghoster815]

this makes me really happy that adult swim recognizes this will destroy you. this band is one of the reasons i had no friends in highschool. i just listened to music like this and kept my head down.

[@ethans.mp4244]

If I die, I better be seeing some shit that looks like this.

[@Soundsbadbro]

LOOOL

[@NightSpy2]

"we're all going to die anyway" I'll just leave this here... thescienceexplorer.com/brain-and-body/google-s-leading-futurist-predicts-humans-will-start-living-forever-2029?Echobox&Social&Facebook#link_time=1477320305

[@flareshift1]

every time i hear nanobots this is the result www.goodreads.com/book/show/13642246-bzrk

[@hugosequeira1810]

Enjoy it while your alive, there's nothing to see afterwards

[@georgewl]

dangzard And people that wish for finite life are too. Either way the end is the same, endless void.

[@everawed4487]

To feel like your life AND afterlife are comprimised due to unique circumstances and events and then have something even as mundane as a song bring you back... it's powerful... -_-

[@youngmula900]

post rock on adult swim? hell yeah!

[@yazoka]

It gave me some hope, but at the same time accepting the end. this is intense 

[@ezzzzie]

every frame of this is worthy of being the background on every device i own

[@galtzar]

Post-Rock is magical... If you sad it'll sounds sad, if you happy it'll sounds happy...

[@brickhouse2265]

I’ve been trying to rewind it to remember what I was thinking

[@aureoescobarfilho]

At the end I just felt some kind of a melancholy feeling, not the good ones maybe. Don’t know why, but it makes me remember that life goes so fast, but the happy thing is that I still alive, so I should live at my best as long as I can, and this is actually great! 😅😅

[@robstaaa]

dude I came home backed and open up youtube, as per habbit.. As 2 mins rolls by of me being in my head (I'm stoned right?) I finally look through my eyes and see this video playing, and realized I was trapped in my head for a bit without even knowing I clicked on it. Crazy I know.. I don't even remember clicking the video it was that good.

[@SteeScribbles]

Good on Adult Swim promoting an incredible band!

[@Jkawfoord]

Agreed!

[@Alex-om6wo]

there are too many people that will never watch this

[@Hadesminion13]

Alex Shit is inspiring as fuck, painful by proxy.

[@calexander4081]

Can't catch me!

[@eoagr1780]

Poor bastards

[@mrlogan4563]

Thats ok, some people don't deserve to watch this video

[@fishbags8493]

well that's kind of harsh, I didn't want to watch this video anyways

[@020Hope]

This must be what going into the afterlife feels like.

[@lynette12]

This mv just skyrocketed into my top animated mvs ever made. Just WOW.

[@lechoux]

This was the single most expressive, beautiful, creative thing I have experienced in my life as a human being.

[@goofygoober4901]

i like how this is relaxing, yet exciting at the same time.

[@aleee3089]

that's hope

[@savagekid94]

This feels like Im watching the fundamentals/beginning of life or some kinds of reincarnation. The reoccurring imagery of the ring, flag, diamond, etc gets more detailed/ better with the next iteration. It seems like instructions or something, and the door at the end with the blinding light is symbolizing life or birth. It's like a journey through the afterlife and being reborn. I admittingly watched this while I was high, then watched it just now sober.

[@liro82006]

That’s exactly my throught process like how the stairs that never end. I looks to me like a represantation of always climbing and bettering yourself!

[@peterjf7723]

This looked a bit like the hallucinations I had after coming round from brain surgery, but mine were more brightly coloured with more snakes and wolves, but the feel of it was similar. The hallucinations persisted for about three days and lasted about an hour after waking up while I was still in a sort of waking dream state.

[@Che8t]

these are instructions on how to spend a lifetime

[@freyafotz5321]

Che8t ur comment gave me inspiration for a comic thank you!

[@Laizerdisk]

link me i wanna see

[@freyafotz5321]

Lazerdisck I'm still doing the concept art but I'll link you if I ever do finish it

[@samreeve9738]

I read your comment and took every section literally. Now I'm gambling and pouring milk on a table

[@crristox]

Do you have anything yet? I'm ultra curious.

[@Joshualacruz]

Every single picture could be a great logo on itself.. :o

[@dr.spaceman958]

every symbol was religious, cult or esoteric.

[@Joshualacruz]

Really? Hmm, I am impressed. Never new these groups had such interesting pictures. Also, the animators did a great job animating these pictures 👍

[@TheUcboi]

Joshualacruz you're so right. I just kept randomly pausing it and even the pictures that hadn't fully formed looked like good logos.

[@Joshualacruz]

Austin Banks I know right? Great stuff. 👌

[@brbafk3305]

occult*

[@deanvanderveen618]

Every adult swim video does as the name implies, it makes adults as myself feel as if there swimming throughout their dreams...or nightmares

[@eliasserrano5832]

Finally some love for my favorite band of all time

[@maximumvoid5326]

i fell asleep have way through the song and the resulting heart attack from the other half has destroyed my trust in headphones

[@whoamarcelus]

maximum void sleep is for the weak

[@Transformersfan1699]

F

[@quard.artist]

I heard once quote by mother to her daughter "You walk through heaven's door and most special thing you did that you hold the door for me so I could see the heaven" and when I saw the door in this video I remembered this quote. (Sorry for my english)

[@TheGoldenPorsches]

The music is so fucking good, reminded me of quiet mogwai

[@MysteryShitShuffler]

Adult Swim's never failed to amaze me. Always has some of the best stuff.

[@ThemGnarlyBoys]

Just discovered this last night while tripping on mushrooms.. talk about beautiful.

[@ImAlrightITHINK]

RIP people with anxiety.

[@galesx95]

rudy torres and PTSD

[@whatabeautifulduwang9603]

I have this song on my phone already but the visuals are just too amazing to pass up. They also fit really well with the song.

[@momsberettas9576]

I miss you man. I wish you didn't have to go I wish I would have been there for you I wish I could have stopped you I wish you were here I wish you could see this.

[@thegalacticbucket2446]

Not gonna lie, any of these pictures would make a kickass tattoo

[@kylef4559]

Something about that door pulled some heart strings. It was very emotional. And I am very much sober.

[@ByBAC0N]

this destroyed me.

[@dmac396]

Nostrapdamus agreed 💔

[@SindyPro]

The fact that they made a music video for this song is fucking amazing!! Actually got goosebumps watching this.

[@RIAZ0R]

Mogwai vibes.... It's been a while since last time listening something like this.

[@diegosanchez6305]

Ahh the good ole days , I remember when I first watched this back in high school . 2017 , tripping acid with the homies and just learning what this whole thing we call life was . I'll never forget this

[@psycheisssdelic]

I've spent my life addicted to air, if I stop using now I'll surely die.

[@seanwang6143]

You remind me of a feeling I can't remember A sound I haven’t heard A memory that never existed.

[@amandine66]

i found this video today in my 20s birthday, what a discover. feels like watching a whole life going on... too deep and amazing.

[@RiteshRajbhandari-lp]

adult swim and This Will Destroy You. I gotta say, I'd never thought I'd ever see these two together. It's like a match made in heaven

[@alwayschanging5821]

I really liked the visual of the stairs up the large pillar with the door opening once we finally reach the top. It gives me hope. Making me feel that if we keep climbing we will be able to see beyond the door obstructing our path... no matter how long the climb...

[@theexus69]

You're wrong, because the meaning is not up for interpretation, it was already created with a specific meaning in mind. And it's more of a calling, rather than an expression of art. If you wish for me to elaborate I'll be glad to explain

[@jaymzbeesez]

Consider myself destroyed. Thanks!

[@Rim90]

Traveling on a spaceship, so far away from home to find a new and better place, a planet rich with loam

[@ASTRONAUTH34D]

And this is why I love adult swim

[@garbanzobean5212]

With no lyrics this song makes me feel something I've always known but can't name.

[@Shrbrt]

Lol I thought the title actually meant the video will emotionally and mentally destroy me when really its the band. Threads is still my favorite song

[@robrick550]

I'm so glad I was high when I found this.

[@duckey00123]

Thanks adult swim. You guys rock man.

[@septima7712]

I feel like I’m existing on another plane and that I’m everything. Their is no beginning to me nor an end. I’m entering this current point of existence on this reality as their is a bundling of energy that is bursting at the seams.

[@bearboyyyyy]

That was a pretty long staircase. Couldn't you install an elevator? Ain't nobody got time for stairs. Need an elevator.

[@jadinmcdonough5521]

Nigga you lazy as hell

[@bearboyyyyy]

Jadin Mcdonough I just aint about 40,000 stairs. Maybe 40 on a good day

[@Hadesminion13]

I'm fat and I'll climb those stairs six more times don't be a lazy bitch dawg

[@bnjrivera]

Please bring back the *Williams Street Music Club!!!* I loved that streaming show!

[@nefariousrus8662]

adult swim has never just been for laughs, it's one of the only places to get something different and risky compared to other popular media. I hope that they never stop making incredible art like this

[@outis918]

Remember that time they aired Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex and taught an entire generation critical thinking and local/international political theory? Adult Swim heavily underrated

[@nick3790]

every single time i watch an adult swim vid i have the suspicion that ive been drugged

[@zonalklism]

I'm drugged everytime I watch Adult Swim.

[@Laizerdisk]

THIS SONG HAS A GOD DAMN MUSIC VIDEO AND I DIDNT KNOW UNTIL NOW? IM SO HAPPY THE FIRST TIME I FOUND THIS VIDEO I WAS TRIPPING

[@hesamsaleh3375]

after drinking two beers and smoking pot while listening to this song, sitting next to the window, smoking a cigarette ... it destroyed me

[@DanielRodriguez-se8hf]

You know sometimes i get a feeling that when i die i will go trough something mind blowing maybe i will unravel the Truth behind everything.

[@deathbyshoryuken]

Skull023 sorry to necromance a 2 year old comment but I just came across this because of another AS (dan deacon) music video, anyway I’ve been essentially dead 3 times in my life. Twice by drowning (I now know how to swim) and once by chocking on food and being resuscitated. There is nothing after death. It felt like going slowly to sleep and being doused in black nothing-ness against you will of vision. Didn’t feel pain, or joy. Just nothing. Nothing but black. Coming back was like being thrown back into a chaos of everything. I don’t know how it is I remember this, but I do. It was all black. Maybe it’s like that for someone like me and different for others. It was a bittersweet peace. Ever since I’ve lost the fear of dying.

[@israeldlr4365]

this band came to mexico a couple months ago and a friend saw it amongst others. epic

[@MoSkOw69]

I couldn't help but to relate this video to "Love & Theft" By Andreas Hykade. Amazing work, btw.

[@Night_Lurker]

still haven't found a mv more touching than this one

[@Caligula138]

Holy shit... When I saw the name lilfuchs in the description I thought of Gerry Fuchs but didn't really think there was a connection, until I saw the end! That did destroy me.

[@samanthabailie1257]

I don't know if its just me but my opinion is that this video is telling us that no matter how many times everyone changes we will never be the same in more than one way

[@DatsunDrigo]

That was amazing. Just saw them in Denver last month too. What a nice little surprise

[@DatsunDrigo]

Just noticed this video is over 4 years old.. good on KZbin for the recommendation

[@shornoMALONEY]

beautiful graphic design and animation in the video, fucking rocking tune as well. I'm gonna have have to watch it a few more times to get a strong opinion on the message in the video (if there is one?), but I have a few ideas about the underlying themes. doesn't matter though, cos it's a great track and video!

[@themagicweedbus1319]

WHY WASNT THIS RECOMMEND TO ME SOONER??? I LOVE TWDY

[@TraciCuber]

My friends and I were chilling just high as fuck in the dark when we saw this weird ass music video on adult swim and I was just far too high to comprehend anything in life at that moment

[@alexis_electronic]

An excellently crafted video, with great music. Good!

[@selim9213]

Where do u live

[@alexis_electronic]

???

[@ElusivEnigma]

I seriously miss the version of me that saw this for the first time years ago..... Hello future me, I'm not doing as well as I wanted to be mentally but actively I'm doing as much as I can to meet you where you're supposed to be. Some days I really want to give up and end it all lately thats been very frequent...but then I think about you. I think about you a lot, and it scares me because I feel like I'll never meet you. It's only been getting harder but I'll keep going cause I love you and I know you love me too, knowing is the easy part but believing is where we struggle. I'll get there soon. Hope to hear from you when we meet. Ps: I'll try to smile more.

[@Apeeps]

illuminati confirmed

[@plsarguewithme2665]

I wish i discovered this years ago, i could've shown it to my class when i was reporting about the sacraments

[@Cyburim]

I can't convey how this makes me feel but it is a journey and it does destroy the way you think and know things from the audio to animation

[@nothingisreal6816]

I fucking love TWDY man

[@Tom-no3zw]

iloveyou adult swim !! thanks for the trippies show that you have.

[@seemeswimfast]

Challenge yourself to really truly see the light.

[@precastsnake3171]

I'm tripping right now and it made me go into their realm and all that existed was my phone scree

[@Astronaughty03]

Please, never take this down.

[@movewitoutmotion769]

Love this band. The music video is a nice touch as well. Very impressive animation 👌

[@jelaninoel]

Remember watching this shit high. Shit was hella intense. Almost couldn't bare it. Lasted forever too

[@charlescarranzainactiveacc3499]

Reminds me of an old friend...

[@valentinarmenta4982]

Charlie Jude he's alive through your memories don't forget and he'll be with you always

[@Midnight_online]

this didn't destroy me..

[@nateh4190]

marco herrera I too was not destroyed.... its like they're not even trying...

[@silvervelocity07]

Noobs

[@peakfpvmedia]

Much love to the animator!

[@octopusteeth2490]

This made feel emotions i didn't think were possible

[@Galaterro]

I found this in the wifi password from disjointed! loved it!

[@Inuweeb]

I've watched this video many times over many years, but I only just realised that the band is called 'This Will Destroy You' and not just the video title saying I'm gonna trip out.

[@xXBoogiepopXx]

I'd rather live in debt forever than ask for help.

[@PintOfJinnes]

An accurate representation of what your heart does when you see that certain, special someone for the first time

[@FFRANKKcorp]

this made me remember what happiness felt like for a bit

[@danih.5675]

Anybody else surprised that adult swim is the best place to find music videos now and not mtv? At least from a hindsight perspective

[@qhotdog9343]

I knew it was going to blow my mind based upon it being a This Will Destroy You video directed by lilfuchs, but wow. All I can say is goddamn.

[@Terakahta]

I need to understand the science behind why this song makes me cry
