Son lux are the most underrated band, they are one of the very best here still they go unnoticed 😿😿 they are the reason i love music 🙏🙏
they're not
extraordinary yes, underrated, no
Holy fuck. This is exactly why I love Son Lux, the visuals along with the lyrics and music? Incredible.
I'm not religious person but I know the story of that dude who's about to sacrifice his son to prove his loyalty to his god (only to be told by that god to sacrifice a lamb instead) all too well. And I love the way it was used here.
The way it shows how their relationship began and how it fell apart. And how he lost his temper and hurt her, and how he realises his mistake. How the guilt eats him and how he tries to atone for his sins. And in the end, how he tries to do so by getting rid of the hand that hurt his partner. (Which the doctors sew back on, because it's him who hurt her, not his hand. But maybe I'm looking too deep into that.) It tells a story, beginning to end, and I just really like that.
Now i get the story behind the video... i knew the story of sacrificing the son too but didnt get it as i watched the vid. Does this mean after he sacrificed his son, he cut his own hand? Because he regret it afterwards? Honestly i didnt ever watched and listened to such a song and music video, thats why i want to understand the whole thing.. aaand because i really like Tatiana Maslany
Cagatay Özkaynak No, he didn't sacrifice his son. He maybe was about to, but he cut off his hand instead. That's why, in the beginning, you see the son stand in the hospital hallway with a shocked expression on his face. He probably cut off his hand instead of sacrificing his son because he realises that he should be the one paying for his mistakes, not his child.
astroscyph Oh damn thats right, now it makes sense.. i like the twisted explaining of the story order. Appreciate your asnwer
That makes so much sense; I'd been trying to figure out the whole thing and that makes the most sense
astroscyph it was Abraham who was told to sacrifice Isaac in the book of genesis and it's about your relationship with Yeshua not "religions", all other "religion's" are made to distract you from the truth of Yeshua and the scriptures, why do you think the bible is so hated and attacked the most? Contemplate on that. And here's a little history lesson, YAHWEH flooded the earth because fallen angels mated with women and created the nephilim aka the giant's you see in movies etc that you think are just fantasy & look at genesis 6 if you think im making it up tons of other scripture talking about them that's why YAHWEH had the Israelites destroy and kill certain people, also in Joshua 10:13 Joshua commanded the sun & moon to stop which is more proof for a geocentric flat earth, the bible is the inspired word of YAHWEH and full of truths & that is why it is hated, may you find the truth, repent, believe in the gospel and make Yeshua Lord and savior of your life & no need to reply i won't respond & i have notifications turned off be blessed.
I’ve been a fan for around 6 years now. Specific songs got me through the depression and insanity of toxic love and drug addiction. I listened to those songs over and over with tears streaming down my face begging god for a chance to find happiness and a better me. And your songs were my string to hold on to this world until I did. Thank you so much son lux.
This video is magnificent. I feel like I lived it. Art in motion. My life on screen. Our baby boy, my son will have a better me and a better dad. We’re doing better.
Tatiana Maslany, best actress from her generation.
Absolutely agree!
but not just her Generation, she is the best in the world in our opinion
TATIANA 😍. YES,SHE'S THE BEST
That is one of the most beautifully shot videos I’ve ever watched. And I could watch Cullen and Maslany reading the phonebook. They are mesmerizing in every thing they do.
Can't remember the last time a movie made my heart beat so fast for 9 minutes straight, let alone a music video. Bravo!
I LOVE how they incorporate little melodies from their other songs into newer ones, like in this one around 3:44 you can hear the little melody from weapons, and in songs like breathe in and breathe out their all connected it’s so cool
:0
I can't express how much this song, the visuals, the video itself resonates with me. It is truly a work of art. It hurts to watch, to hear, but "some pain must be felt."
amber best and most true comment on this video! Nice to see there’s still some intelligence on RUclips
my eyes weren't made for such perfection
Bianca Mallet o my Bianca Mallet, your eyes were made purposely for such perfection.
"If your right hand makes you sin, cut it off and throw it from you" Matthew 5 verse 30
se o inferno existisse. Mto boa essa passagem
Then cut away the whole world.
@@AFMR0420 If that was your choice, than you would precisely be, becoming a hermit.
@@AFMR0420that’s kinda the plan, revelations 6 and on
everything they make is unique, even their music videos are so different from the norm.
saw them live yesterday and the energy was unreal. Ian was absolutely going crazy on the drums!
Thanks Ryan, Rafiq and Ian ♥
That's right! Absolutely agree
Chill Therapy wow i am jealous.. I want to see them live to.. But i live in israel
Hi, for those interested in an explanation of the religious imagery and symbolisms here's my take:
The picture the guy stares on the wall, represents the Biblical story of Abraham and his son Isaac. In it, God tested the faith and faithfulness of Abraham and tells him to sacrifice his only son. Abraham obeys and leaves with Isaac to a mountain top and prepares everything in order to sacrifice him. At the last second God instructs Abraham to stop and provides a ram for the sacrifice.
In the video the father cutting his own hand instead of sacrificing his son is a metaphor of the words of Jesus in Matthew 5:30: "If your right hand is the reason you sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go to hell."
In other words the father realizes his love for his son and concludes he's incapable of doing anything bad to him, so he chooses to cut his own hand to stop himself from doing it.
I find it odd anyway, cause he wasn't going to sacrifice his son beacause of God's command, but if so, in the story of Abraham, it was not a sin that he wanted to obey God, it was only a test. I mean I cannot connect the two Bible verses.
In my opinion there's not a direct connection. But if you allow me to, I think the video is trying to make clear that sacrifices that involve hurting anyone (emotionally or physically) are not the answer.
When the guy is sitting at the table with his family he seems to receive a divine revelation of what he "should do" He interprets the sign as an order to take his son and sacrifice him. But then he suddenly has the revelation that the issue with his wife will not be solved by doing this, but actually the problem is in himself and cutting his hand (which was used to abuse his wife and his son) is the first step to solve his problems.
Finally (at the beginning of the video) we see him at the hospital, in the exact same room (maybe this was a budget thing, but I want to se it metaphorically, lol) where his wife had their kid. I see this as a representation of a new beginning, a new chance to make things right. All this, of course, without escaping the consequences of his actions (his kid with the surprised stare in disbelief)
Surströmming can There is, because Abraham was stoped, this guy wasn't. As well Abraham found a lamb for a sacrifice instead. Therefor he probably realised his head is messed up (guy in video) and he stoped himself the best way Bible descirbe it (it was kind of symbolizm as well).
Ángel Román Hmm so far this explanation seems the most relevant to me. Anyway I know that Son Lux isnt related to christianity (correct me if im wrong), and the way they use references are not that straightforward and are for the sake of their art.
Surströmming can I started following the Son Lux since 'We are rising' but actually since 'At war...' there were songs inspired by Biblical passages. I'm pretty sure Ryan is or at least was a Christian at some point. There is some info here:

I DONT HAVE WORDS YOUR MUSIC JUST TOUCHES ME IN WAYS I NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT DONT STOP MAKING THIS MAGIC PLS
WHAT. THE. HEXX. THIS IS SOOOO I CANT DESCRIBE. i had shivers all over my body until the video ended....... i have no words
I'm gonna watch this until it reaches 1M views.
Merci SON LUX !!!!!! la vidéo montre que la vie a plus de valeur que toute les souffrance , formidable vidéo est la musique reste magique !!!!! génial !!!!
This is one of the most beutiful videos i have seen... Best greetings from Iceland :)
I have goosebumps all over my body
Undoubtedly among my favourite song/videos, always drawing me back. Everything about its presentation and direction is polished to perfection, the song fits perfectly.
I wish I could buy this version of the song. I love the extended buildup in this when compared to the album version.
I have no words for this, seeing you live is on my goals list! It's very rare when song is able to give so intense feelings like real music should. I'm sorry, but amazing, beautiful, fantastic is not enough and I lack knowledge to describe this.
This is one of the best piece of Art I've seen in ages. Thank you to all involved from the deep of my heart.
Agree
This video, profound as all their other videos. So much lyrical poetry in their words and thought provoking movement in their videos. It's great to skim through these comments and read intellectual dialogues amongst strangers. Many commenting with respect towards one another. That's what music is all about: bringing people together. Amazing! Cheers from Nevada!
I cry. This is beautiful.
Holy shit I've never cried so much at a music video before :'(
Jazmin P-K same here
F all the mainstream musicvideos and mainstream songs. Son Lux and the whole team directed and created the most unique thing we have ever seen.The world needs more stuff like this!
VALØ Records couldn’t agree more! Mainstream music is not music, it’s just catchy beats! You have to dig into the depths of the internet to find the real music
Son Lux is my favourite thing in the world and nobody can change my mind
I surely dont want to...but before I §rediscovered "them...give "get well soon a try...different but still...same vibe,intensity and authenticity ...this song and vid got me first..:

I used to listen to this son a lot many years ago until I forgot about it and it was lost to me, today I just found it again after many more years looking for it, couldn't be happier.
This song is perfect as is. But the intro in this version really has an amazing effect in my mind and body, i never experienced this musically before that. Love them so much, love they are getting so much recognition for their wonderful work
Still get intense shivers from this
The addition of the "Weapons" melody was great.
There is nothing more painful than realizing you love a damaged person.
Or realizing you've damaged the person you love
Worst sh#* ever 😢
I feel this son hits really different after watching Everything Everywhere all at once, and I can't really explain why
Tatiana Maslany ❤️
It is beautiful to take a story like that of tantalo and rebuild it to achieve a final full of art. Amazing.
wow. all the words of the world are not enough to describe my feelings. I want to cry, laugh, beat my fists against the wall. these words, this music, these people will forever remain in my heart. it's more than just a song. this is what unites people. thank you❤
p.s. hi with love from russia
I love theeeeemmm this is so perfect, the first time I heard the song I let a tear come out of my eye
my daily dose of perfection is fulfilled
Why this masterpiece has only 200k, not 25 million
Thank you for your music, be blessed be life enjoy life 😊🤘🤙
this brought all my tears out. God, it's fucking beautiful
this mv made me cry 1st time I saw it, I focused only on acting(bc Tatiana) and 2nd time realized the lyrics hinting.
such a masterpiece
son lux, you're so inspiring and unique
This is the sort of video I love, and want to see multiple times! Combined with a beautiful produced electronic ballad with haunting vocals, makes this one a winner!
Such a masterpiece!!! Why no comments in 8 months! This should have atleast a mil views by now!
All directions, not only 1. Awesome
This is incredible and watching this video felt like watching a painting, a work of art unfolding in front of your eyes. I am so touched by how the story is visualised and the music fitting so perfectly to the scenery!
Good music and film production. Ty. Was nice to watch. Have a good day.
not enough words for this masterpiece, they're ideal
