Dug up this album recently. Remember playing it incessantly in my younger days. Tremendous. I hope kids today can discover this. Blows away pretty much anything out there today.

Source tags and codes is the one album I would bring to a deserted island and listen to over and over and never get tired.

[@pistolpimp36]

I don't think I need to say it but I'll say it again. The trail of dead's Source Tags and Codes is one of the best rock album's ever and probably my favorite album of all time. The sound these guy have on this album and the rest of their work is original and it was that genuine ferocity yet serene glow of their music that kept me listening.

forgot how much i enjoy this album, especially in autumn

[@ksm1985]

Found a Spotify playlist today with this song. Hadn't heard the song in a very very long time

[@pistolpimp36]

@JungleBhoy1975 yeah man , I STILL can't enough of this album. Aesthetically , the trail of dead are my favorite band for several reasons : their guitar work , lyrics , the fact that their into ancient civilizations , conrad being an exceptional artist and their band name of course :)

i will have to agree with you...when i heard another morning stoner i was about 16...the song and it changed my life. it defined my personal style, i knew what my music taste was how it formed me...it also was the song that defined rock music...

[@pdfermat]

amazing! Today's concert in Prague was excelent! And, for our pleasure, they played this great one!

[@Brambleiah]

This was my first favorite Trail of Dead song.

[@psychomode14]

i think this is the best live performance i've seen by these guys on youtube. i'd fucking kill to have seen this incarnation of the trail live. they're nowhere even approaching this good anymore

[@MrGunwitch]

I saw them live back in 2002/2003 (from memory) when they opened for Mogwai in Sydney. It was absolutely epic, they were infinitely better than this video portrays and completely blew Mogwai off the stage (which is saying something, Mogwai were still amazing and are probably my favourite band). I had never heard of TOD before this concert and I remember three things standing out: 1) The band members kept swapping instruments between songs, particularly Keely and Reece 2) They trashed the stage and their instruments at the completion of their set, including throwing the drum kit into the audience! 3) They played the set like it was their last one on Earth. I don't remember ever seeing a band put that much into a performance. They literally left everything 'on the field'. I immediately went out to the foyer after their set and bought the album and one of every t-shirt they had for sale. Been an ardent fan ever since.

God I love this song!!!! Reminds of when I say them live in Orlando.

[@PureExpression]

Agreed. I fell in love with them about a year ago but forgot about them. Now they are brand new all over! horay

[@kleonard1990]

If they were massive we wouldn't feel so privaliged as fans who are fortunate enough to know this band. Sweet guitar tone as well:))))))

[@Camronaldoz]

Unreal these guys to my mind were the best band in the world for a fair period and handled it much better than Radiohead. One of my fondest memories is a mysapce message from Conrad after I asked the band to play at our wedding, if I could have come up with 15k would have being the best purchase I have ever made. Had to settle to for it was there that I saw you and invocation as songs during our ceremony. Hoping to see these boys live before too long certainly on my bucket list!

[@JungleBhoy1975]

@pistolpimp36 Spot on man, like Sunday morning stoned one minute then Friday night on acid the next. An amazing infusion of the chilled and the madness. A true masterpiece.

[@MrSlowdiver74]

They kicked off with this amazing song when I saw them at slade rooms wolverhampton. Top night, great gig. Please come back to UK trail of dead

[@martinpark8371]

ah the memories!

[@emptycasing]

Will always love them!

[@lindsayetter1225]

So underrated!!!

[@dukagc]

Awesome.

[@Caligula138]

"You were fair and fey as the sun that evil day"

[@ShopliftersUnite]

its pure about doing their own stuff and not giving a shit about current trends and giving in to standard album conce^pts, they just dont get the promo for that. conrad has his moments that his voice isnt great but most of the time he sings awesome and very powerful... best band around fy

[@xLksR]

I go seriously crazy with that 3:13 drums... man.

[@yazoo1973]

fuc*ing superb

[@ThePunkyCo]

you know, and his voice sounds to me what it sounds like on the cd

[@bivvystridents3752]

Jay is a beast behind the kit...

[@jayybirdberg6545]

Not sure about this live version. but my favorite TOD song none the less

[@emptycasing]

epic

[@willie5k]

its better when they are not massive, just a few like us could enjoy them, because when they start being popular and comercial (in the knowledge of masses) they lost kind of subjective sense

[@Davoravo86]

Ha, HA!!! All these people criticising the singing?? You can bet they can't hear themselves amongst that wall of noise, PA's would be useless!!

[@youclavicle]

And the background vocals are even worse! 3:25

[@alkemious]

it's a fantastic tune, but wow, this dude can't pull it off live. better stick with the album version.
