I found Yob and this specific album at an incredibly hard time in my life. I'd ruined myself with too much work combined with too much alcohol and pretty much ruined all my relationships around me. My brother and I nicknamed eachother Bone and Marrow (only in Norwegian, Bein and Marg). I got it tattooed on my fingers, he got it on the side of his palms. We were sitting in my apartment, me being ruined physically and mentally, he with his problems conserning drugs and depression. He had recently introduced me to Sleep, and while shuffling songs this came on. I laughed first at the title being the very name he'd given me, but we listened in silence as we used to. And I had a revelation, I clearly saw myself from outside of my own body, I saw the damage, the hate, the anger at the world and everyone who failed me and me being a failure and I was tired. I decided to wipe it away, to release all the tension deep within my marrow. And I cried, for the first time in years, I cried for hours, me and my brother. Bone and Marrow. When he died 4 years later, this kept me going. I remembered that day when I finally opened my eyes, and yet again decided to let it all go. My anger towards him for leaving me behind and choosing a road I could never follow, my hate of the people who didn't help him, me being a failure for not seeing his pain. Brother, if you're out there somewhere, I hope you're listening to this as well I love you. I fucking miss you.
I went camping with some friends last year, was just the three of us, we did mushrooms and the three of us listened to yob for hours. This song came on and really stuck with me. that night was one of the best nights I’ve ever had. Words can’t describe the experience
@@DanielKelleyOBE he is man i got to look him in the face at the end of the last show in Toronto all the lights came on he was actually putting his gear away and shit so crazy he shook my hand i was forever changed
I am doing that right now. My favorite nephew killed himself, they found his body in the woods. He called me & told me his friend had just committed suicide, & needed to talk to someone so he didn't do something stupid. I was the 4th person he called, first 3 didn't answer the phone. Zak was handed the black sheep torch, as was I before him. I guess everyone needs someone to look down upon, so quick to point out the splinter in someone else's eye, but don't see the log stuck in their own. I'm losing my shit right now, knowing that since I was the last person to speak to him his death is somehow my fault. It's been 17 days with no drugs or liquor, & I am seriously wanting some 80 proof. " He was only crazy for a minute." was said after my uncle killed himself. I'd love to believe that. Sorry to ramble, this is a beautiful song.
a great friend of mine died recently and i felt and did the exact same thing you did my friend. life is crazy, and this song depicts how you can go down so low but also rise so fucking high
My deepest condolences to all of you. Hope you are OK now. While listening to some songs, I love reading people's stories and seeing what kind of feeling the song awakens in people and how they relate it to themselves. I think despite different experiences, we have the same feelings. So, I just feel thankful to the artists who express those feelings in different forms.
I remember the day Mike picked me up to go get coffee and just before he dropped me off he played me the rough mixes from this album and he described this song as yob emulating Kansas I still chuckle through the rears of sorrow and joy when I hear it. Yob is love.
This is one of the most lucid, beautiful enticing pieces of music ever to grace my ears. Forever playing in the back of my mind making life worth-while
i guess im randomly asking but does anyone know of a method to log back into an Instagram account?? I stupidly forgot the account password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me.
These guys have a talent that will never be appreciated to the level that it deserves to be. This is such a beautiful, mind opening/crushing song. How they do beautiful and crushing at the same time, I don't know. but this is now my favourite album/song. thank you YOB for sharing this amazing music for people to experience.
Just saw them live in Prague yesterday. Ball of Molten Lead, Exorcism of the Host, Clearing the Path to Ascend complete album and Adrift in the Ocean as a closer. Brilliant.
i honestly find they did a lot better in past albums. this song is great, but lacks the petrifying evil facemelting riffs they had before. now it is more of a strumming guitar. not that i don't like it ,but yob for me are Burning The Altar.
@@TheJupiterGiant I agree, older albums are even better. For me Yob is Grasping Air, it was the first Yob song I've heard. I was fortunate enough to hear it live in Wrocław Poland a few years ago :-D
This song makes me feel like my soul is taking a shower. All negative things in life melt away and I'm left with nothing but feeling like a ball of light.
i missed this concert because i could not leave my daughter alone more than 1 h while asleep (she was still small a 3 years ago) so i asked some friends to stay at my place i took my bike I went to the gig and I bought at least this vynil from the band after they played......and I had a 5 euro discount for this. great band great people. respect.
Crazy how a song that is almost 20 mins feels like 7 mins. It's just so immersive that you don't want it to end. At the same time emotionally the song feels like it spans an entire lifetime. For me this is one of the greatest recordings of the 21st century so far.
what i have been searching for these 50 years of my life. ive finally found 5% of that dream. still searching for the 95% to get to 100% maximum potential !!!!!!!!!
I can never stop coming back. It's been over a year now and I just can never forget this. They were channeling something higher when they recorded this...
Listened to this song hundreds of times, and still don't know the lyrics. They're superfluous actually, the music and the voice say it all...just how I feel.
Here you go: All these things That have come to pass Emptied well Of times that never last Rhythms speak Sun to winter's call Pouring forth they Beckon to enthrall Burnt clean eyes Reach into our graves Into the scars Of our truth Of life within The stars All these words Are dust within my mind In these times That burn within our sight Yearning to know Deep into the marrow Fall And see When there's no ground To feel To endure Rise in the heart Time will crawl To the sea Time will fall Inside the dream Weathered stone Rivers running deep Flying wings In skies that never sleep Earthly blood Speaking in the stone Sounding calls That want us to believe Cleansing flames Burn into the night Into the scars Of our truth Of life with The stars Restless souls Flickering light Painted in gold Tearing at the seams Needing to feel One true moment Needing to feel Something true
What I meant was that you don't need to know the lyrics to understand the feeling of the song. Not that I couldn't find the lyrics or that I didn't like them.
all lyrics are superfluous when compared to actual music played, don't worry, I don't even know any lyrics from bands I love, keep focus on the music and the voice as an instrument
A musical representation of bitterness and nostalgia... Yob created another great album, and this song is the perfect closing for their cathartic mixture of heaviness and poignant melodies
So humbling song, so deeply human, so deeply true, embracing the whole facets of existence, all the joy and tragedy of life, all the hopes and brokenheart, all the crave for love and our burdens, we are all f****ing alive and this masterpiece reminds it to us, long life to YOB !
These guys consistently put on an amazing show, really emotionally driven live and extremely heavy. Loudest and most emotional and heartfelt shows I've ever seen were by these guys. Atma and Clearing the Path to Ascend they've really come to perfecting their sound.
Not to disregard anyone’s comments.....I just don’t think it’s possible to come up with anything that can even come close to describing this kind of perfection.
This is such a great song. I'm in my 40's now, but I was a huge metal head in my teens. My taste never got any heavier than Slayer though and it's tough to find a modern metal band that I can get into. This is awesome
Imagining this playing the night you discover a long abandon Gothic monastery buried deep into a hillside surrounded by a wild, twisted woodland. You seek cover inside, as the rain and wind howls. You are met with the beautiful sight of endless hallways and staircases leading to a massive vaulted library room. You huddle next to a majestic sized fireplace watching the fire crackle and hiss. Strange tree roots have enveloped the pillars and walls. The light exposes a series of Mosaics and wall paintings depicting the sacred burial rites of an ancient and mysterious cult who lived on the site of monastery. Lighting flashes and the thunder cracks in the sky above.
A totemic storm fell upon the valley, tearing trees from the ground and lashing the broken walls of the monastery. It was almost if this old and mysterious building was comforting itself from the maelstrom circling above. The fire died away as sunlight cracked through the cloud - The storm was lifting at last. 10:32 - The damp air clouded the towers and fell it silent in the morning bright sunlight. Behind all the moss and ivy, this ancient derelict was alive and grasping for new life. You could feel it through the endless hallways, and beneath the broken stone, rotten timbers there was something reliving memory through the foundations below. The falling dew drops echoed through the building as they gracefully landed. It was certainly picturesque but yet it was empty, devoid of activity..whatever was here before had long since died. There was a tinge of sadness about leaving this magnificent beauty, as you followed a path out of the rumble. It was truly awe inspiring, yet forgotten....until now.
So powerful, I had to stop for a while before playing the next track because this one just took me away, thank you Yob for the journey I took with this masterpiece...
J'ai découvert ce groupe il y a 15 ans maintenant, il fait partie de mes indispensables personnels, au même titre que Led Zeppelin, Iron Maiden ou Metallica. Ce groupe est vraiment talentueux et son sens de la "mélodie lourde" est imparable. Ce titre est d'une beauté absolue !
All of you say this is a masterpiece and that it's beautiful and pure emotion in music...you probably haven't heard this MASTERPIECE peaking on two tabs of acid. THAT is a truly wholesome experience, maaaaaaan.
I was stood 2 feet away from these guys as they crushed through this, off my tits on mushies. That was erm.... an experience. The most beautiful, soul smashing experience.
Yeah, acid makes you think about how much you love everyone in your life, and based on the comments I’ve seen this song is about losing a loved one. Acid would be perfect for this song
sergio rodrigues I don’t need it to appreciate my music. Enjoying music on psychedelics is just a way to experience your music on a different level. I’ve had some of the best times going to concerts under the influence of psychs. Made me appreciate the bands I love even more. Your opinion is ill-informed and naive.
This is one of many doom metal songs Ive gotten many non-metal fans into metal with. Others include: “Our Raw Heart” - YOB (obvi) All of Heartless by Pallbearer “Misery Hymns” - Churchburn “Love You To Death” - Type O Negative “Mirror Reaper” Bell Witch “Boden” - Amenra (more post-rock, but doomy enough to count) What are yours?
I was wondering the same. How the hell do you get non-metal fans into genre of music that even metal fans don't listen to (or a minority at least). I mean Amenra is so far out there, I just can't see it. OP what were those non-metal fans into, I'm really curious
This song, literally ten times listened to over about a month has already made me become ok with the passage of time. Thank you. I aspire to make something as transcendent of genre and/or timeless. Peace and good fortune to all reading and listening in this fucking age of doom!!!
Heard this song on liquid metal station. Randy Blythe ended his program with this one. Have always been a fan of YOB, but hadn't yet heard this one.....IT IS AWESOME!
Woot! Welcome back and thank you, one of my favorite bands of all time. Bought this the day it came out. What a great record. I am still delving into the depths of the other 3 but this song mesmerized me instantly. Such patience and control, unreal.
@@soundsoundsowieso2403 you're in for a treat dude. They even gave us a rendition of this gorgeous song which I wasn't expecting. Honestly the best show I've ever attended, the sound and atmosphere was just incredible. Mike is a gent as well.
april 2021...nude beach, pirate's cove, pismo beach CA...some stoner d-worshiper told me about YOB...november 2021 I covered this song in Bakersfield CA and posted it on youtube (1.1K views, 63 likes)...dec 2024...I listen again...vets village Fort McCoy FL...YOB just did a gig in Denver...they're from Oregon...I got a music degree from a school in Salem OR in 2002...rock on...rock on...rock on...

I found Yob and this specific album at an incredibly hard time in my life. I'd ruined myself with too much work combined with too much alcohol and pretty much ruined all my relationships around me. My brother and I nicknamed eachother Bone and Marrow (only in Norwegian, Bein and Marg). I got it tattooed on my fingers, he got it on the side of his palms. We were sitting in my apartment, me being ruined physically and mentally, he with his problems conserning drugs and depression. He had recently introduced me to Sleep, and while shuffling songs this came on. I laughed first at the title being the very name he'd given me, but we listened in silence as we used to. And I had a revelation, I clearly saw myself from outside of my own body, I saw the damage, the hate, the anger at the world and everyone who failed me and me being a failure and I was tired.

Brother, if you're out there somewhere, I hope you're listening to this as well
I love you.
I fucking miss you.
may I send you my love. a brother from another country
Mano.. isso me lembrou muito do que eu passei e de como eu conheci yob, e do que eu estava vivendo naquele momento.. e me ajudou muito. Abraço mano
beautiful
hugs brother
I miss my little brother too. I hope for your healing and reunion
I went camping with some friends last year, was just the three of us, we did mushrooms and the three of us listened to yob for hours. This song came on and really stuck with me. that night was one of the best nights I’ve ever had. Words can’t describe the experience
that sounds horrible
@ChinVape You stick to the vapes lad.
@@gelatinousSpirit its been ten years
Literary done the same about a year ago, so, I feel ya, bro.
Warm greetings from far away and cold Russia.
YOB is beyond borders and time already.
Sounds beautiful
Genre: Masterpiece
Fact
Only one band allowed to have that Genre
Very rarely do masterpieces like this come about. You can hear emotion poured over every note. Best kind of music
YOB is just like the best band ever. Mike Scheidt is a super cool dude.

@@DanielKelleyOBE he is man i got to look him in the face at the end of the last show in Toronto all the lights came on he was actually putting his gear away and shit so crazy he shook my hand i was forever changed
I'm on my balcony, the rain is strong as ever,thunder speaking with the language of the maker,stoned as fuck. perfect. hats off to YOB.
Someone very close to me died yesterday. This is the very first song I felt like listening while holding my head in my hands.
+Andre I "When there's no ground to feel, to endure, rise in the heart." Stay strong.
I am doing that right now. My favorite nephew killed himself, they found his body in the woods.

It is a song of loss...and of endurance. It's a gauntlet and a crucible...the path can be hard and cold...but it's gold, this Yellow Brick Road.
This is like a doom Freebird. Instant classic.
You mean its like a doom Tuesday's Gone
Faye Flores You mean like Instant Funeral
FPS oversleep. Op.
I listen to the song and somehow I know ... Freebird, it's that melody !!! :)
Lynyrd Skynyrd blows
My entire life is in this song. Everything that I desire, everything that I feel, everything that I have.
Love you, praise the doom 🖤💀🖤💀🖤
Same. Big same.
I remember the day Mike picked me up to go get coffee and just before he dropped me off he played me the rough mixes from this album and he described this song as yob emulating Kansas I still chuckle through the rears of sorrow and joy when I hear it. Yob is love.

The greatest compliment that can be paid to a work of art. Echoes of Chris Isaak ring through this metal masterpiece.
Laying here stoned, and that comment hit me so hard. Beautiful.
This band and Agalloch, something special
Thank you. Very good perspective. I needed to read that.
i guess im randomly asking but does anyone know of a method to log back into an Instagram account??
I stupidly forgot the account password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me.
This is the song I've wanted to hear my whole life.
Perfect
Very Underrated Song And Band. The Most Beautiful And Emotional Song All Time
This is probably the most beautiful masterpiece i've ever heard.
These guys have a talent that will never be appreciated to the level that it deserves to be. This is such a beautiful, mind opening/crushing song. How they do beautiful and crushing at the same time, I don't know. but this is now my favourite album/song. thank you YOB for sharing this amazing music for people to experience.
As an artist that comment must mean allot !
I hope they know how people feel about their music. I can only dream of making music that these guys create.
Meaning they suck. Rebooting Queensrhyche now. Silent Lucidity.
@JasonWhacker: why are you trolling a Yob song on RUclips with Queensryche and Megadeth references? Stop being stupid.
totally agree bro!
one of the best songs i've ever heard in my life
First heard this song 3 days ago.
With it on repeat, that makes this the 227th time I've listened to this song.
BOB LOVES YOB
Bobislove
@@jameswoodhall Could you be yob, and be yobed !
And we love bob
I listen to this song all day long, and when I'm not listening it, it's playing in my head.
Same for me, i can't stop listening to this when i'm trolling on the fofo
Yep, yeah, over and out
@@Bon5oir what does that mean
This song helped me through my son almost dying. Thanks YOB. I cant wait to see you soon.
I have a spiritual experience every time I listen to Yob. My god, this tune is sending a profound warmth through me. Yob Is Love!
Yob is life
Just saw them live in Prague yesterday. Ball of Molten Lead, Exorcism of the Host, Clearing the Path to Ascend complete album and Adrift in the Ocean as a closer. Brilliant.
seeing them Sunday, can't wait!
probably the best song YOB has recorded yet, just incredibly moving
+Tim Ellis Jaysus, that's depressing. Here's to hoping there is better.
should i just not listen to any other YOB songs? this was the first one I heard I was wondering if any and which YOB songs even come closetothis
i honestly find they did a lot better in past albums. this song is great, but lacks the petrifying evil facemelting riffs they had before. now it is more of a strumming guitar. not that i don't like it ,but yob for me are Burning The Altar.
If you haven't already, check out adrift in the ocean by YOB. another masterpiece
@@TheJupiterGiant I agree, older albums are even better. For me Yob is Grasping Air, it was the first Yob song I've heard. I was fortunate enough to hear it live in Wrocław Poland a few years ago :-D
A very atmospheric song. It feels like you're a million miles away and completely content.
Saw them play this last night. Pallbearer opened for them. Amazing gig.
Fuuuuuuuck ing right yessssss sounds killer im listening to both of them right now just discovered a little while ago.
This song makes me feel like my soul is taking a shower. All negative things in life melt away and I'm left with nothing but feeling like a ball of light.
what an album ..... album of the year ..
Saw them yesterday in Paris and they finished their show with this song. Oh boy, it was unreal... Pallbearer was amazing too.
The single most beautiful song of 2014. Still moves me to this day.
i,m 66 and this is a heavty similar to 1971 when i was a freshman in college
man, this song. Every time is...something new in me.
i missed this concert because i could not leave my daughter alone more than 1 h while asleep (she was still small a 3 years ago) so i asked some friends to stay at my place i took my bike I went to the gig and I bought at least this vynil from the band after they played......and I had a 5 euro discount for this. great band great people. respect.
Shivers down my spine every time I hear this song, most beautiful song ever... period.
Crazy how a song that is almost 20 mins feels like 7 mins. It's just so immersive that you don't want it to end. At the same time emotionally the song feels like it spans an entire lifetime.
For me this is one of the greatest recordings of the 21st century so far.
This gets played every day. A glorious and masterly piece of art.
this song takes my spirit to a journey beyond space and time
what i have been searching for these 50 years of my life. ive finally found 5% of that dream. still searching for the 95% to get to 100% maximum potential !!!!!!!!!
I want to die on the exact day I'll grow tired of this song. That day the world won't have anymore beauty to me.
we will never die then
orgasmic,for me the best song of the album
this song got me into Yob. i love these guys for what they do, they saved my life not even once.
#YobIsLove
This is one of the best intros i’ve ever witnessed.
New to yob..........wow.the band I’ve always wanted in my life.
Dam they came with it on this song. One of the best and moving heavy songs ive ever heard
This, for me is the song of the decade.
My soul can now rest.. just wow this is just beauty.
I can never stop coming back. It's been over a year now and I just can never forget this. They were channeling something higher when they recorded this...
Listened to this song hundreds of times, and still don't know the lyrics. They're superfluous actually, the music and the voice say it all...just how I feel.
Here you go:
All these things
That have come to pass
Emptied well
Of times that never last
Rhythms speak
Sun to winter's call
Pouring forth they
Beckon to enthrall
Burnt clean eyes
Reach into our graves
Into the scars
Of our truth
Of life within
The stars
All these words
Are dust within my mind
In these times
That burn within our sight
Yearning to know
Deep into the marrow
Fall
And see
When there's no ground
To feel
To endure
Rise in the heart
Time will crawl
To the sea
Time will fall
Inside the dream
Weathered stone
Rivers running deep
Flying wings
In skies that never sleep
Earthly blood
Speaking in the stone
Sounding calls
That want us to believe
Cleansing flames
Burn into the night
Into the scars
Of our truth
Of life with
The stars
Restless souls
Flickering light
Painted in gold
Tearing at the seams
Needing to feel
One true moment
Needing to feel
Something true
They can be superfluous but they're as deep as the entire song...
What I meant was that you don't need to know the lyrics to understand the feeling of the song. Not that I couldn't find the lyrics or that I didn't like them.
*****
Yeah, you're totally right !
all lyrics are superfluous when compared to actual music played, don't worry, I don't even know any lyrics from bands I love, keep focus on the music and the voice as an instrument
Impossible to explain the total and utter crushing feel of those harmonies. Absolutely stunning.
This is such a beautyfull heavy masterpiece. What a song! What a feeling! What a message!
A musical representation of bitterness and nostalgia... Yob created another great album, and this song is the perfect closing for their cathartic mixture of heaviness and poignant melodies
This song changed my perspective of music and metal in general...glad to have seen this guys live, such a unique experience.
The night this was performed for the first time ever. I was there to witness this historic event
So humbling song, so deeply human, so deeply true, embracing the whole facets of existence, all the joy and tragedy of life, all the hopes and brokenheart, all the crave for love and our burdens, we are all f****ing alive and this masterpiece reminds it to us, long life to YOB !
This is the greatest song I have heard in a long..long time. Wow.
Track of the year, just amazing, the tone is incredible.
These guys consistently put on an amazing show, really emotionally driven live and extremely heavy. Loudest and most emotional and heartfelt shows I've ever seen were by these guys. Atma and Clearing the Path to Ascend they've really come to perfecting their sound.
im crying....wtf..its so beautiful. to be hearing this.
If i had to listen to one more song before i die, it would be this.
Because then you'd live forever?
No, because he would die happy.
and in those 19 minutes... he would be happy
I think I have to agree with OP. One of the finest songs I've ever heard.
I feel the same way, this song is almost ethereal
This is like a full gourmet course for your ears
10:30 is instant goosebumps for the rest of the song
It is a chance to take a deep breath and then sink back into the song.
Simply a beautiful and moving song and I can give it no better compliment.
This is one of the most epicly hypnotic songs of all time. It gives my chills the chills, abd don't feel bad to shed some tears along your journey....
one of the greatest songs ever written.. transcending
Not to disregard anyone’s comments.....I just don’t think it’s possible to come up with anything that can even come close to describing this kind of perfection.
This is such a great song. I'm in my 40's now, but I was a huge metal head in my teens. My taste never got any heavier than Slayer though and it's tough to find a modern metal band that I can get into. This is awesome
high on fire. you'll never need anything else. you are welcome.
Slayer is well heavy. Rain in blood hail. Masterpiece
I hear ya bro I'm 44 and I can tell you it's a great time for metal if you dig shit like this. Earthless, Witchcraft, Earth, Graveyard, OM...
Cheers
Fuck yeah dude.@@oscaryeager5030

Seems to be going pretty well.
More more, what happens next

“Boden” - Amenra (more post-rock, but doomy enough to count)
What are yours?
boden cures everything
How the fuck do you get a non-metal fan into metal with Mirror Reaper.
I was wondering the same. How the hell do you get non-metal fans into genre of music that even metal fans don't listen to (or a minority at least). I mean Amenra is so far out there, I just can't see it. OP what were those non-metal fans into, I'm really curious
Bro. Yes. Pallbearer.
Foundations of Burden + Sorrow & Extinction are both amazing records, can’t get into the newer Pallbearer albums as much, sadly
Only two songs have ever made me cry in my life: Wings for Marie (part 2) by Tool, and this one
I have trouble listening to WfM pt2. Almost too personal.. visceral.. an emotional beatdown.
Yet I still listen to it at least once a week.
Brandon S A totally different type of song (depressive black metal ish) but give Woods of Desolation's Unfold a listen, gets me everytime.
Nicky Viper This Autumn Light is the one that gets me from As the Stars, but not as bad as Katatonia's Gateways of Bereavement, and Brave...
Brandon S i understand, i have such a personal connection to Wings/10,000 Days, it makes me tear up everytime
if this makes you cry you probably shouldn't listen to "either way I lose" by nina simone. Could get ugly. Great song nonetheless BYOB
Who says doom can't be beautiful? This shit is awesome.
Try Warning - Watching From a Distance. I think its as beautiful as this
Eugene Oregon loves ton! Hail from Eugene Oregon! Mike is a great guy... Drink some Oregon microbrew and listen to yob!
My favorite Doom Metal band!
first time listening , holy shit i'm an instant fan, gonna go buy the cd to support this amazing album
Same haha, just ordered almost every CD they have last night :D
After third track 2GB downloading.. So sad and unfair they are underrated
This song, literally ten times listened to over about a month has already made me become ok with the passage of time. Thank you. I aspire to make something as transcendent of genre and/or timeless. Peace and good fortune to all reading and listening in this fucking age of doom!!!
One of the best songs I've ever heard \m/
It's totally possible that I comprise 80% of the views on this youtube... can't.. stop.. listening..
This song has me so hooked. Its that climactic build up.
Really fitting vocals for the track as well
excellence
No words can describe this song. Fucking beautiful.
song of the year
Agreed. I can't even begin to comprehend how anything can top this.
Erik H It's so great..I've been getting into these guys and Pallbearer recently
so true. when it ends, there's really nothing alse to listen to.
An outrageously heart-wrenching, soul-crushing, invincibly hypnotic piece of Doom. Darkness is eternal.
This is the most beautiful song ever made
I want to sit on a mountain and stare over a forest into the sky while listening to this.....
Heard this song on liquid metal station. Randy Blythe ended his program with this one. Have always been a fan of YOB, but hadn't yet heard this one.....IT IS AWESOME!
Wwwoooaaahh!!! A friend of mine gave me a hardcopy of this gem last week as a present for the road. STAY HEAVY.
1st listen to Yob and am liking what I hear, so atmospheric you can get lost in it
Woot! Welcome back and thank you, one of my favorite bands of all time. Bought this the day it came out. What a great record. I am still delving into the depths of the other 3 but this song mesmerized me instantly. Such patience and control, unreal.
One the best songs I've heard in years!!!
Absolutely badass! What a gem this is!
One of my favourite songs. Can’t wait to see Yob live tomorrow
Gonna experience them on 31st october 2018 😀
They were totally mesmerising live! Enjoy! 🤘
@@colinl8497 Glad for you! Thanks, I will :)
