This is it. This is the song that brought me into the post-rock world. I first heard it played on an independent, listener supported, internet radio site. I loved it from the first listen but waited more than 5 years before really taking the time to fully absorb the entirely of this album. Once I had, it was clear that I had joyfully, and with great enthusiasm, jumped into a rabbit hole unlike anything since Carroll's Alice took her leap.
GIAA. This is the band that drew me into the musical world of POST ROCK music. Before post rock music I was listening to radio silence. And soon after, discovered an entire undiscovered universe of deep music and I never imagined existed.
I have an ex that always hated my post rock, he said it was just a downer genre of music. I disagree so much to this day! There's always this uplifting journey it takes you on, and the end is pure ecstacy
Post Rock is like abstract art.. Serenely surreal and provokes different emotions for different listeners!! I can't think of a finer piece of art than this..
Get ready to be transported to another dimension, this is not just music it's a portal to another universe. I bet you this is what plays when you journey through a wormhole in slow motion.
The intro speaks itself ... after all these years i've listened , its never gets old .. its shows you the surreal , brings tears and prepared you to walk again ...
Yep, but when you have that feeling for years....it's hard to keep motivating with just music. At least for me. Every time I think I won and finally can live the life I've always wanted there's been a setback. Every victory comes a defeat. Come close to conquering the mountain and come crashing down further than I was before. I guess there's nothing else to do anywhere but to keep climbing, the one positive of corona. Sometimes the sunk cost fallacy works in advantageous ways.
Wish I could enjoy the beautiful sound of God is an Astronaut while tripping but I have too much of an emotional response to this music. I'm sticking with the Grateful Dead for the weed and lsd haha
It's a start of all your hardships and taking decisions After 3:12 you are done and cannot deal with the emotions and goes crazy and it makes one crazy and finally everything ends
thunderstorm alerts.... cool winds of night caressing as if apologising for the hot day... and then I stumble on this music.. why does this moment has to pass..
Five years later, I almost forgot about this comment and just came back for the song. How time flies. 24th October, 2023.. I will remember these few weeks for so many reasons. I will be back soon..
My year in new zealand..... living in car, waking up at beaches, meeting people all over the world, seeing the most amazing scenery.... the highest highs and the lowest lows..... this was the soundtrack to my adventure....... now everytime i hear this i ask myself whats the point.......
3:12 onwards is just ungodly. What a beautiful song. All the tension built throughout finally gets vented out at 3:12 ... Utter chaos and finally it all ends.

God Is An Astronaut is my all time favourite band. I can't even articulate how much I love them. The perfect band to listen to when you chill, read, study, meditate, or do anything else. They have such a unique sound, I haven't found anything quite like them so far. I like most post-rock bands, but none of them gives you that feel like you're listening to the soundtrack of the universe, or something, like with GIAA. Can anyone here recommend a band that comes close to them in awesomeness?
You are important to other people, as much as to yourself. You have some vital role to play in the unfolding destiny of the world. You are, therefore, morally obliged to take care of yourself. -Jordan Peterson
does my importance really matter if sadness is temporary and will not make a damn difference when we all die? People will miss me and die some day, and the cycle goes, but everything we ever changed, did and experienced wont matter to us because we are now dead, and our conscience is no more it isnt really worth to continue living if you dont believe in the idea of afterlife, but we still keep going stay strong folk
What a pleasure to come back here, 6 months later with wisdom words :) Thank u my friend, to have called me here :) nice to have u too around, friend !
God is an Astronaut. And we're all but Explosions in the Sky. As Carl Sagan so eloquently put it: "Star stuff, pondering the stars." God is an Astronaut have presented me with an immense collection of highly satisfactorily amazing moments, when I just existed and enjoy the world for what it is. An astoundingly beautiful place, upon where we all gaze upon the interesting development of our collective existence. :) Thank you all, for sharing this experience with me. We will eventually unite!
Sadly the masses prefer different. That's just how it is. But...One thing you'll have to consider. You're here. Listening to this music and found yourself appreciating it than anyone else you would expect not to. Be happy that you did.
I don't typically go for non lyrical music but..... A friend said their name, I picked a track that had the most interesting name and I think I finally found the non lyrical music I can appreciate and enjoy!
@@chonky_monk At least I've found a good place to start! ☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️ Are there any other artists, similar to this crowd, that you would recommend? 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
Man, where did you all come from? Looking back at my life 7 years ago (when I posted this)...all the triumphs and failures I've had since....everything I've learned..... *hits blunt*
In a world consumed by blood and hatred, I try to pull away from the creeping darkness by holding onto the slightest of lights... I gaze up into the sky, into space... the infinite void that surrounds my ever so meaningless existence... and my heart and soul long for the veracity of this all mighty, forever watchful entity, to look after me... the bane of my insanity...
This type of music is magnet for us introverts. =)

In the depths of post rock music you find the light of inspiration. If you haven't a clue, then you'll never fully wake up.

Post rock is mostly good tho.
Wherepostrockdwells It's not "like" abstract art, it "is" abstract art. And in its finest form.

Played this song at my dad's funeral as the coffin went behind the curtain, just seemed to sum it all up rly.
ahh , hope you are okay;
this song also reminds me of losing my dad 8 years ago

Indeed.
Ok den
it would most definetly be if you think it is. We are co-creators
Amen. Well said.
The intro speaks itself ... after all these years i've listened , its never gets old .. its shows you the surreal , brings tears and prepared you to walk again ...
The soundtrack to every hard/major decision in your life.
You must repeat to yourself: all is violent, All is bright.
Underrated comment.
Sometimes, when life's not what it should be, you need something that takes you away for a moment. This is that something!

lsd and this is beyond words. Hammock goes insanely well too
I've just discovered this great piece and I fell in love in first minute.
Is it time to make a decision?
I guess with this kind of music you have to make one.
Time to think of repairing the damage.
Live, y'all.
It's 2023 and so many of us are still here...
I don't know what to say about this song..I want to smile, but i'm too busy crying because of how beautiful it is..
It's a start of all your hardships and taking decisions

Awesome...I listen to this music everyday at least twice 😍

Oh yes!!
non si può fare altro che ascoltarla e riascoltarla all'infinito
chills down my spine, tears in my eyes.
God. The nostalgia... What am I doing with my life?
Every year I find a reason to listen this song.awesome.why we have to go back to listen beautiful songs!!!
We used this song in the final play in my college. Just wanna go back to those days
One of the most underrated bands, alongwith blackstratblues.
Not really. They're already a household name in the post rock scene
