I listen to this album between calls (I'm a chimney sweep) because it makes short drives in the van feel like epic journeys through time and space in a rocket ship propelled by the souls of a thousand dead poets. y'know?
@@doomedsounds191 sorry for the late reply…yes. It’s as amazing now as it was 5 years ago. This album has helped shaped my life. I’m happy to have existed at the same time as it. Cheers.
deFyne too right. I've been listening to it since 4 a.m.--now it's 5:30!!! Still riled up! Not sleepy at all! delicious, dreamy music! Filled with energy like a candy bar laced with acid!
I noticed tears forming under my eyes around 25:20 and I just let them start steam down my face, for some reason that part of the record broke me and turned me into a lost crying baby curled up in the fetal position on my sofa left in need of a comforting hug. At 30:50 it felt like he gave me one. Bens music is like a emotional roller coaster! Definitely the king of transcribing feelings through music.
wOw!1! hOw oRiGinAl and IntErEstInG!1!! WhAt a DeEp aNd eMoTioNAl pERsoN yOu ArE!1! "n0tiCEd tEars" "lOsT cRyIng BaBY" "cOmfOrtIng HuG"!1!!!!1!!!!! get over yourself you stupid shit.
Its such an immense feeling to find music from an artist that just fits something you've been longing to hear but wasn't tangible. This album is that for me completely. The album White Fields and Open Devices by Vessels did this for me too when I found them-worth checking out if you like this kind of dense, complex music.
This is astonishingly beautiful. I actually prefer Cloudkicker's impressionistic wall of riffs to traditional clear-cut post-rock sound along the lines of Pelican. Caspian did the same great thing on "Tertia".
Ben Sharp and Cloudkicker have been a great inspiration to me, not just in terms of sound and diversity, but through his ethos and combination of DIY with professionalism...I have a similar project and can say from experience of having tried to do the same that what he does really is top class. Anyone interested can check my album trailer here: Storm Daughter - Archaic (Album Trailer)
This is fully sick love the constant riff motifs throughout. If you here then you will probably like bands like these.... Plini, Animals as leaders, Chon, Scale the Summit, Polyphia, Sithu Aye, Tool, The Sound of Animals fighting, Tesseract , Modern day Babylon , Intervals also mouse on the keys, 65 days of static, this town needs guns
these are all my favorite bands and artists! :D along with btbam, the contortionist and periphery. Also listen to Wide Eyes, and Pomegranate Tiger if you havent already!
I am having my 6 year old son take guitar lessons and he overheard me listening to this album via my IPad. He said, "I think I will play like that sometimes. The guitar makes a buzzy noise but there is no gun violence."
I'm seriously fucking obsessed with Cloudkicker, it's so annoying. I can't stop listening, even though the mood of this is keeping me depressed, I crave it. I can't stop.
Shane Jones I don't get depression out of it. I find myself painting a flight thru an imaginary landscape. It's happy time for me! It reminds me of digging on atom heart mother, back in '73. Ahhh....
ben is one DIY musician that i can really appreciate not only for the indescribably intelligent and beautiful music but also for his passion for exposing people to good music. not only does he do everything but the album art on his own (writing, guitar, bass, drums, recording, mixing) but he has all his albums available at a 'name your price' download on bandcamp ffs. he's definitely on my list of favorite people to ever walk the earth. 8:50 stole my heart on this one.
One in the same song :) It's called: You could laugh forever and never end up happy :) Its actually one of my favorites by Mr. Sharp..but that changes like the tides.
I've loved everything he's done, but I was worried he was going to continue down the softer fade/let yourself route. let yourself be huge is a masterpiece, no question. Fade had Seattle and LA after rain but all in all it's something I don't go back to too often. but hearing those drum sticks kick in with that fat beat at the beginning of the warmth was so goddamn amazingly satisfying I just sat and listened, headbanged and loved, and reveled in the classic cloudkicker sound
34:35 I was just writing an article, at this point my brain melted due to sheer power and awesomeness and I was stuck and could not continue writing listening concentrated with my mouth open until the piece ended
to have intronaut as the backing band and cloudkickers awesome music will be killer. then to have intronaut play right after that - damn gonna be a memorable show to see and hear!
Kaleb Birdsong Such a fantastic way to hear his music live. Who better than an amazing band like Intronaut to back him up? Everyone who gets to see this show is in for a massive treat. I can't wait!

y'know?
thats one hell of a formidable description, mister Nixon Sweep.
epic description. hats off to you.
4 years later, do you still listen to cloudkicker in the same sense?
I understand and love this comment
@@doomedsounds191 sorry for the late reply…yes. It’s as amazing now as it was 5 years ago. This album has helped shaped my life. I’m happy to have existed at the same time as it. Cheers.
Why did I have to find this album at 3 in the morning? Oh well, sleep is definitely less important than listening to this beast in one take. Hot damn.
deFyne too right. I've been listening to it since 4 a.m.--now it's 5:30!!! Still riled up! Not sleepy at all! delicious, dreamy music! Filled with energy like a candy bar laced with acid!
Poppa Punker tell me about it, I gotta get up in 45 minutes...
Yep...

I imagine Morgan Freeman reading the songtitles.
Robert Pavey lmfao

Seeing this man play live was probably one of the greatest moments of my life.
Ben Sharp has a really nice complexion as well. haha
This is fully sick love the constant riff motifs throughout.

the contortionist are sick, seeing them in a month with the faceless and protest the hero
I saw Animals as Leaders and Tesseract live in Vienna like a month ago..
amazing...!!!
I think more people should listen to all these bands :3
Try David Maxim (Who bit the moon), Chon, TRAM, The Helix Nebula, Jason Richardson, Mestis, Piotrek Gruzska, Cheers from 2017 :)
Mestis !!
Timeless masterpiece. Roughly 5:00-26:00 contains so many good riffs it's ridiculous.
Would love to see Cloudkicker and Tool tour together. Just sayin. Be the best concert of my life.
They kinda did! Hahah
SOUNDWALKER how so?
@@YeahImAnthony Cloudkicker played live with Intronaut. Intronaut opened for Tool.
SOUNDWALKER ohhhh no shit
Sadly id be in the tshirt line the entire cloudkicker set but id probably pass it up to see him play this time!
This is just gorgeous music to me, I love the way the guitar conveys so many different emotions and describes them perfectly... no words needed here.
I am having my 6 year old son take guitar lessons and he overheard me listening to this album via my IPad. He said, "I think I will play like that sometimes. The guitar makes a buzzy noise but there is no gun violence."
What? Gun violence...huh weird kid.
How is he coming along?
I'm seriously fucking obsessed with Cloudkicker, it's so annoying. I can't stop listening, even though the mood of this is keeping me depressed, I crave it. I can't stop.
Shane Jones maybe check out Fade or Let Yourself Be Huge if you don't wanna be depressed haha
Shane Jones I don't get depression out of it. I find myself painting a flight thru an imaginary landscape. It's happy time for me! It reminds me of digging on atom heart mother, back in '73. Ahhh....
Every single album is different and fantastic. This dude amazes me.
Chuck Graham Agreed. Though this album hits all the right buttons for me. Great blend of genres!
this is easily one of the most emotional pieces of music ive ever heard, or ever will hear in my life. it’s incredible
This album got intimate with my ears
The honeymoon is next month.
Cloudkicker's music - one of the best things that ever happened...
Fuck me, I love Cloudkicker, why haven't I listened to this. I'll slap myself for this.
same
hammypants shame! ha
shit yeh, agreed!
Agreed, *bitchslapping* myself right now
This is absolutely breathtaking.
Thank you for no adds
ben is one DIY musician that i can really appreciate not only for the indescribably intelligent and beautiful music but also for his passion for exposing people to good music. not only does he do everything but the album art on his own (writing, guitar, bass, drums, recording, mixing) but he has all his albums available at a 'name your price' download on bandcamp ffs. he's definitely on my list of favorite people to ever walk the earth. 8:50 stole my heart on this one.
Feels like a religious trip. Masterpiece!
love the super low chugging guitar in #2. Dunno why, but I've always liked that sound.
when cloudkicker really starts to drone and dominate, it reminds me so much of early era isis. so raw, so heavy. so awesome. I love cloudkicker.
This album pointed out a real flaw w my speakers .....they don't get loud enough...
those drums sound so good.. this whole thing is so nice
This is upper class music!
that riff at 18:40.... chills.
The heavy part right before that blew my fucking mind oh my god
Going from the song previous to 34:30, into what he did at 34:30, was like feeling the world drop out from underneath you...
One in the same song :) It's called: You could laugh forever and never end up happy :) Its actually one of my favorites by Mr. Sharp..but that changes like the tides.
It certainly does. Awesome stuff this guy is doing. Can't believe it's only one dude.
I went without even knowing about this album for almost a whole year. Then I discover it, and then I realize its the best one.
Frickin beautiful. The third track almost made me cry.
21 people are so fucking wrong! That's crazy. This music is really really awesome!!!
Zaymon
A smile came on my face at every new rythm or break
Beautyfull!
This album is like a good steak; it takes some time to digest.
Thanks Cloudkicker to share your work Thanks again
I am and will always be a Cloudkicker fan love the music
I'm positive this man will never run out of ideas, awesome music!
I'm in love with this entire album......
He need to drop another album I got solitude but give us atleast 3 new ones stay consistent...This guy is amazing 👏
I feel like all of us are real cool guys for having listened to this
Another amazing release. All are awesome but Beacons is my favorite.
Spectacular, as expected. A genuine treasure.
Can't be happier, thank you once again, youtube algorithms
RUclips search "norway train" and have this one playing in another tab. Turn off the lights and take a little trip.
B. Sharp.
Which brings us to the first letter of his projects name. I'm digging the coincidence.
?
Logan Finn B # is C. What is the first letter in Cloudkicker?
Yes I understand that. But it wasn't clever at all...
Amusing coincidences don't have to be.
Alex Schuster amusing?
Best thing I've heard in a long time. Thanks for making this, Mr. Sharp.
Good fuckn job ben , it's making my brain melt.
Still writing great tunes. Nice work.
I've loved everything he's done, but I was worried he was going to continue down the softer fade/let yourself route. let yourself be huge is a masterpiece, no question.

Saw Cloudkicker live in Cleveland, suckers!
+SINTHETIKTV you lucky shit
34:35 I was just writing an article, at this point my brain melted due to sheer power and awesomeness and I was stuck and could not continue writing listening concentrated with my mouth open until the piece ended
this album, idk theres just something about it,
Lorenzo Rizzardi thats so great
Man.. Cloudkicker NEVER fails at greatness. Very awesome.
Fucking sickkkk. I may like this one just as well as beacons and make yourself huge.
Amazing.
I should get an E-Bow ^^
This shit rules.
Im proud that he is from Columbus.
Cloudkicker is back with heavy riffs! Love it!
21:52 - 26:04 is Ben Sharp's greatest piece of music no doubt
when the music kicks in after that intro ..... i go 'holy ef..' Every time ..
Incredible
I have messages him a couple times and he always replies. just write him and tell him how big of a fan you are.
I love this
wow, such heavy, much melodic, wow
wow, such sound, amaze, much riff
I would love to hear Tool performing 3) live : )
Webastyczny Tool somehow reminds me of Cloudkicker, even tho Tool is suffused with lyrics.
New tuning, new masterpiece!
Oo Wholesome album. 10/10
+Janusz Okoń I keep bouncing off the roadway...
This is awesome! I love Cloudkicker!
absolutely wonderful!!!
I REPORTED THIS VIDEO!........For being too amazing for my earholes....
Cloudkicker is touring! I wonder if Ben got signed. He said he didn't want to tour before. I'm going nevertheless.
Meaningless Self If you didn't hear, the band Intronaut is gonna be the band backing him for his set! Gonna be so sick.
Kaleb Birdsong Yeah! I'm going to see them in end of April. I love Intronaut too, I've been listening to them since like 2007.
to have intronaut as the backing band and cloudkickers awesome music will be killer. then to have intronaut play right after that - damn gonna be a memorable show to see and hear!
Kaleb Birdsong Such a fantastic way to hear his music live. Who better than an amazing band like Intronaut to back him up? Everyone who gets to see this show is in for a massive treat. I can't wait!

so old dude, so old
Dat build up doe 15:31
Nate Hughes When I first heard this, I transcended. Like math metal breakdowns and Sharp just had to blend it with atmospheric, post rock/metal.
The title of the third song though
holy shit!
