I heard this track live couple days ago. It feels very fresh and sounds in my opinion kind of optimistic. Very excited about this new direction they're taking!
@@WilburBullara Same! I was at this show live in NYC earlier this year, and it was incredible. Thanks so much for recording and uploading. I've listened to it countless times.
These 2 new songs are absolutely phenomenal, almost a return to Slow Riot or Lift Your Skinny Fists…. I saw them in Brooklyn 2 or 3 years ago, and it was the 20th anniversary of Slow Riot for Zero Kanada, and they played Moya and BBF3 for the last 35 min, the huge projectors whirring beautiful and disturbing images from around the world. It was like a religious experience. Effrim Mennuck is a genius. He sat the entire show…90 min, and they barely looked at each other for cues. Unreal band.
Oftentimes i find their live sets very comparable in performance quality to their studio stuff. There are even some really good live recordings that i prefer to the studio version
The new songs all sound huge again, larger than life. This band has been going at it for 30 years and just keeps getting better. What a time to be alive.
Saw this in Kingston on the 28th. Genuinely had to hold back tears during this track 3 times. I think it's their best song to date. Love from Ontario ❤️
They're just about the only group of musicians that does it for me now-a-days, so to have new music from them is such a gift, and this is sublime. Thanks.
The sound of the version you posted is incredibly good. Thanks ever so much!! Saw them in Paris last week in a breathtaking venue (Le Trianon) and they played this track. Unforgettable evening.
I just saw them last night in Budapest, Hungary with my girlfriend. This song brought me to tears when they played it live, it was just pure catharsis.
@@WilburBullara Yes, transcendental is a proper word to describe it. The whole show was like a process, had ups and downs, it's like you have to endure uncomfortable or strange soundscapes too in order to be ready for the climaxes. And those climaxes hit hard I can tell. And the musicians... Almost zero contact with the crowd, just a small waving at the end before leaving the stage. But that suits them: it's not about the musicians or being rockstars, it's about the music only. I remember when there was the first small break in the music after 20 minutes and there was a huge applause and cheering from the crowd (it was a sold out venue), Menuck just suddenly looking at the crowd with a face like "ah, so there are people there too, I haven't noticed them until now", and just quickly nodded his head in response, and that's it, that was his only reaction. Loved it. :)
I nearly lost it when they didn't stop at Moya and led into BBF3, I hadn't been so moved in ages. The fact that they never played it again for the rest of the tour makes it even more special. Overall the whole show was probably my greatest experience with music so far, but this piece, BBF3 and the outro really made me happy I made it long enough to catch them.
Saw them in Wilmington the other night, they played these songs there as well. They're great, some crazy moments with the string sections that I really liked. This was my first time seeing them, so for it to have been new music made it even more mesmerizing
Am I alone in thinking that from 10 mins to the end of this new track is a re-arrangement of the minute of bliss in "iv. Attention / Mon Ami (5.5m to 6.5m)" from Antennas to Heaven on Skinny Fists? (ruclips.net/video/agN6AL2Y8h0/видео.htmlsi=aW1UsNHfUDtGTuYS&t=327) That snippet has always been one of my favorite parts of theirs, so when they were playing this new song live I was picking up that the chord progression is nearly the same. New tracks are some of their best ever IMO!
Saw them in mexico, they playes this and one that people are calling "flames" botth were so great. Even better i got to hear the sad mafioso at the end and even got an autograph! Best day in my life
Heard it yesterday for the first time, live (and then I found this recording), tears pouring down my face - first time in 20+ years seeing music live when I had such a visceral reaction to a 'new' song. EDIT: and then 'Moya' for the encore
Son didn’t want to attend show alone so dragged his 60 year old dad to the gig and both went home amazed at how lucky we were to experience GY!BE in such a small venue. What a show for the Oshawa faithful. Sound team were spot on!
Beautiful. Probably now tied with Sleep as my favorite GY!BE song. Edit: I like the “working titles” way better than the official ones, however this new album is prob their best post-hiatus
I’m seeing them in November. I’ve never been this excited for basically anything. I’m really curious what their set list will be. I just want something off of f# or lift your skinny fists.
@@WilburBullara Now that I've heard them all many times, "Flowers" is the strongest to me. As a percussionist, the shuffle of the first half of it is amazing--the way I would have played the whole track, frankly. It adds so much more tension than "ensemble punches" and straight playing of the second half. I was a little surprised to hear the guys take a gutsy risk like this. They should take some more.
Today, these great ones been on Spotify. I have odd attachment with gsbe as we all and i though about what meant whole discography to me. I realise that i grown with these guys. While im listening this album i wanna ask you guys; is that the end? The shared memoriest and deep emotions. Is that the last endowed album to listen? Greeting from Türkiye. We all listening them with the same feeling.
I feel like i might be late to the party but this is pretty good. In my opinion it sounds kinda simple and not complex like some of their other songs, but even then this is still great. Oh and if anybody is reading this, have they only released just this song? Would love to see more of this new stuff.
I've just heard of this band today and listened to a handful of tracks. I gotta say, it's terrible. It all sounds basically the same. It's just generic, like background music in a movie or show.
I heard this track live couple days ago. It feels very fresh and sounds in my opinion kind of optimistic. Very excited about this new direction they're taking!
can’t wait to see what they do with the studio version.

Flowers is such a powerful track to start off with. Studio version might just wipe me off the face of the earth if it sounds this incredible already.
Completely agreed
Storm watered the Flowers oh so long ago❤
After yesterday show in Warsaw I listen to it on loop, whole show was 2hrs it was amazing
Oftentimes i find their live sets very comparable in performance quality to their studio stuff. There are even some really good live recordings that i prefer to the studio version
@@kamilrekosz7829 I listened this 3 days ago in the concert in Bratislava. Made me cry really....
The new songs all sound huge again, larger than life. This band has been going at it for 30 years and just keeps getting better. What a time to be alive.
Can’t beat it!
They've been getting worse since 1997. They were amazing until 2003 and are still good, though.
@@AtaSancaktar Allelujah and State's End are just as good as LYSFLATH, the hell you talking about?
@@RockfordRoe State's End sucks save for the two shorter tracks. As for Allelujah, they had already composed most of it by 2003.
@@AtaSancaktar Sounds true, but MF=R(1) can be called their best track
Saw them last night in Mexico. I was amazed by this lovely and gorgeous piece.
te tengo una envidia
Saw this in Kingston on the 28th. Genuinely had to hold back tears during this track 3 times. I think it's their best song to date. Love from Ontario ❤️
Such a beautiful track. Love from Muskegon, Michigan!
The fucking best band of all time, no contest
the beginning reminds me of William Basinski - The Disintegration Loops
Agreed!!
truly bizarre response
the sound of hope
we indeed need an extra bit of hope in this twisted sad world we´re in
is this real?!?! I drove to work today listening to "g_d’s pee" thinking "when are they going to release new material?" And then...
You’re not dreaming!!!
They're just about the only group of musicians that does it for me now-a-days, so to have new music from them is such a gift, and this is sublime. Thanks.
The catharsis and sense of anguish in the first 3/4 of the song is reminiscent of the Twin Peaks theme song
i 100% agree, and i can see the jazz influence a lot in the drums especially in this one
utterly bizarre, culturally illiterate response
@@thomaseyers Ok Mr. u/pinearch342
The sound of the version you posted is incredibly good. Thanks ever so much!! Saw them in Paris last week in a breathtaking venue (Le Trianon) and they played this track. Unforgettable evening.
of course! i’m glad you had a great time at that show! :)
Best music from them in ages. Really brings back memories of seeing them in a tiny venue in new jersey around 2000.
so true. the songs remind me of Yanqui.
I just saw them last night in Budapest, Hungary with my girlfriend. This song brought me to tears when they played it live, it was just pure catharsis.
I’m jealous of you. I hope it really is as transcendental as people say.
@@WilburBullara Yes, transcendental is a proper word to describe it.

I was at the Budapest show as well and had the exact same reaction. Tears flooding down my face man. Such an experience....
saw them in Austria on Wednesday, beautiful song

Overall the whole show was probably my greatest experience with music so far, but this piece, BBF3 and the outro really made me happy I made it long enough to catch them.
It's always GY!BE to have the best pieces of music, I feel the cinematic vibe coming off of this already
I'm sure the intro sounds a lot like one of the pieces of the disintegration loops, it struck me immediately when I first listened to this song
It reminds me of if William Basinski had a more fleshed out sound instead of just messing with tapes
this is my favorite band of all time i cant wait to see where they go with these
I agree. This song in particular is my favorite.
Saw them in Wilmington the other night, they played these songs there as well. They're great, some crazy moments with the string sections that I really liked. This was my first time seeing them, so for it to have been new music made it even more mesmerizing
i can only imagine how awesome the experience was
New horrors beyond human comprehension dropped
perfect description for this
This song is so incredibly beautiful.
It’s one of my favorites that they’ve created

so gorgeous

sounds like one of the best experiences i’ve ever heard of. i would’ve been sobbing.
Exact same reaction.. absolutely blown away by this.
That was one hell of a show at the Knockdown Center - so glad I was able to attend in person. Thank you for recording the new tracks!
All thanks goes to Stutter (linked in the description). Glad I’m able to share these new tracks with you!
The end of this track is insanely good, right back to the level of their best work. Cannot wait to hear it live
Such a beautiful song. Hope the concert you go to is spectacular!
Thanks for sharing this 🙏🏻
no problem!!
All 3 new tracks sounded awesome in Oshawa Tuesday night!! Looking forward to new album announcement!!
Me too!! Can’t wait to listen to the Oshawa recording if there is one.
Son didn’t want to attend show alone so dragged his 60 year old dad to the gig and both went home amazed at how lucky we were to experience GY!BE in such a small venue. What a show for the Oshawa faithful. Sound team were spot on!
Yes, I was very impressed by Oshawa sound
I never been in that venue before
Sound was great
Do Make Say Think vibes. Great track.
definitely.
I'm so glad that this band still exists and they still continue to make music after all this time, and a 10 year long hiatus.
almost some Do Make Say Think vibes from the first 5mins
Beautiful. Probably now tied with Sleep as my favorite GY!BE song.
Edit: I like the “working titles” way better than the official ones, however this new album is prob their best post-hiatus
Same here!!
Saw them play this in Vienna last week, just insane
I saw a jazz band yesterday and it was enough to make me transcend. I can’t imagine what seeing GY!BE would be like.
lama di coltello che cummuove il cuore ! Fulmine a ciel sereno...........
This is amazing!
Absolutely overshadows everything they’ve made in the last 12 years
Great new song. It kind of reminds me of Do Make Say Think.
Lots of people have been saying the same! I agree!
I’m seeing them in November. I’ve never been this excited for basically anything. I’m really curious what their set list will be. I just want something off of f# or lift your skinny fists.
@@nh1776 i’m seeing them too. i bet they’ll play at least one oldie.
fucking amazing
aazinglwy powerful
Been loving this band for like 25 years now, this song as is good as anything that came before it. The people who experienced this live are lucky.
I wish that I was able to.
The best new song I've heard from them in a long while. Reminded me of Yanqui.
I thought the same when I heard it the first time
Stellar.
absolutely.
Reminds me of do make say think
i never thought of that but you’re totally right
Absolutely, also I catch a hint of Bark Psychosis here, especially « Pendulum Man » and the sounds off Hex
100%
It's the jazzy drums I think
this is Amazing
amen!!!
I really really love this one. Hopefully we'll get a release date soon
I hope so too.
coming out in September
@@trowftdthanks jess!
September?! That's absolutely wonderful. I wonder if they'll announce more 2024 US tour dates too. What a time to be alive!
@@trowftdFantastic. Just before October UK tour dates. Trying not to wish the year away.
I am so happy that the best band since The Clash is still making the only music that matters...ever.

my impression or looks like more a silver mt. zion?
It sounds like it, doesn’t it?
yeea so much@@WilburBullara
Maravilla
Played as the frist track in Budapest, this hit me like a punch, i cannot describe anything with words...
that sounds phenomenal!!!
it sounds gorgeous on the new album too, is one of the peaks of it

ok👍
don't worry, it's alright to have terrible taste in music
How banal. 2 chords, with variations, back and forth. They've clearly run out of ideas. So predictable.
bruh that’s literally what Swans does
and Swans is fucking great
