this is so much better than the studio version wtf...
Completely agree. They just killed the best part resulting in an too classic song
No way. Maybe an interesting alternative version. But the album version starts so gorgeous and the transitions are brilliant. I love it. Also the sound of the guitars. Just the last 4 minutes are not as amazing as the first eleven minutes. I guess it's meant as some kind of musical deconstruction. As such, it's good. But the track deserved a better than good ending.
@@honigschlecker1 I know it's an unpopular opinion, but I really love the studio version. Especially the last four minutes really conclude this piece for me.
@@Lukas_Kramer I still love the album version. One of the best tracks GYBE have ever made. And my opinion has not changed: The last part does not keep up with the other music. Seems like you almost see it the other way around. 😉
What do you think of their newest album? I'm still not sure about it. My feeling is that it lacks a bit musical inspiration. BUT there are some pretty fascinating details and parts for sure.
@@honigschlecker1 I can honestly see you point, I think the intro is the best part about Anthem For No State, and over the last couple of weeks it has certainly grown more and more on me. I love the variation of the instruments used in each individual part and the build up and anticipation it creates. But, luckily for me I guess, the final part just works and I love it.
Their latest album certainly had to grow on me a bit, but that's not unusual for me. I agree with what you're saying and it is still lacking something for me, perhaps it is the musical inspiration. I think the finale go Government Came is one of their most brilliant, however I tend to actually skip its intro, which usually never happens with other songs.
I wish they had kept that distorted and haunting gospel like drone in the beginning on the record. Having that sound resonate through your body live was magnetizing.
yeah, that was magnificent just in a youtube video....
Anthem for the New States of America.
Godspeed should be in their hearts.
Black Emperor for the light was corrupted.
Aztec Empire growing from the ashes. Knowing the value of Defeat of loss of misery of pain. Forgotten in time but not lost. Roses rise
A farewell. It truly is. How many times have I said this but to just go back. Far to many times to know this feeling right now is different. It's sad but not the pain isn't as deep or as painful as before.
Our nations Independence is approaching now. Less than a week away.
Far to many are acting and not believing.
I am an immigrants son.
A United States citizen to two immigrant parents from Guerrero Mexico. From Aztec descent. A proud Aztec warrior and believer of its God's as well as a proud Catholic. I come from and grew up on black and white culture. Jazz, blues and rock and roll. All I can do is write and so I do.
I am proud to be part of this nation and what it stands for.
Hopefully we can show the nation indivisible by God. Show the world the birth of a new nation. United States of America as great as our nation has been there have also been many injustices done as well.
Far to many that just cannot be simply ignored.
The selfish, the greedy and the heartless are sitting to comfortably.
Their day is coming. Yet as our government currently stands falls way behind standards.
The one mistake was taking religion out of government. We ought to have constitutients that the love and hope of God in their hearts if they are to serve as part of our nation.
Why take that out? We are also putting faith and beliefs into things we have never witnessed or experienced before. Yes we read it or think it's in the Bible but you got to build faith, hope and trust on the tangible.
Otherwise if anything bad happens we can simply brush off responsibility and blame the promise that no one made to us but we believe it did so in the Bible and by God.
Nothing is ever going to get fixed if we keep blaming God. For one he never promised me or anyone anything. He never came before me and told me empty promises. My parents did. My pastor did. Yet how could God had told them anything if had not even been born yet.
The Bible is book of prophecies. On human behavior. We are that predictable. So Jeremiah 4 is actually happening right now. The cities have been abandoned. Lo and behold I look up into the sky and no light. Lo and behold I looked into the mountains and felt the earth shaking. It's currently Mexico and the mass leaving of its people.
As a woman giving birth to her first born is heard screaming. I am surrounded by my assassins.
God has not even been born. What a better way to keep him safe than the world do what it does best. Blame someone other than themselves. The guilty never go beyond the surface.
God has been trying and trying for thousands of years. Every one of us had the potential to be themselves. Rarely does any ever truly become self.
I have. I have been. Jesus Christ no he was alcoholic and had a foot fetish. I am lizandro salgado. A meth user. That's not right God or Jesus Christ doesnt do meth. How do you know?
For once try something different. All we have been doing is the same thing believing its the right way.
I'm saying it's not. Don't hang out with those people they are a bad influence. Then let me be a good influence on them. How is your thinking in any way selfish and just evil.
We are your over lords. Rip and tear every false prophet. Rip and tear where they called home including their children and anyone willing to defend these so-called kings.
My people are stupid and do not know how to do good. They only learned to do evil.
A reckoning is coming. Change your evil ways or when we come back you will regret ever becoming more than just a thought. Still here when we come back judgment will be upon your so called God, whoever mothered him will be trialed as well. Along with anyone who pushed this foolish agenda.
Watching an evil act and do nothing then you should not judge any anyone lesser than you. You are the low of lowest animals. True leaders with integrity can only judge even if he has to become God jury and exucutioner. Kill this man then only blame your ignorance for whoever long
Your suffering continues. So as long as the lowly creature drags his guilt and shame your suffering shall never end. We are leaving you to your own devices. Tell them whatever lie you want about defeating me. I leave you these so called riches to you and your people are the True rulers of these lands. Or until we come back to reclaim and fight what we have left you. I will return every so often if by the 3rd ***. Of the 13th ************* 4 of my men will come to help you in your need. Name as you want they are powerful allies.
One of your allies has arrived. Corruption is conquest. You breed your own punishment. You create that which you seek to destroy. Yourself.
1+1+1+1+4=1 eat it nerds. I don't believe in equality, I don't believe in absolutes, I don't believe we should all be created equal.
The means that created you were the means that defined them.
Shell Shock. I am the first ally that was promised. War.
My wisdom here is to help out your enemy after a battle. You never win the war when you kill him and his home.
Hopefully in the next battle instead of dealing a death blow he returns the favor and helps you out.
Kill and just kill then read my writing above.
I remember seeing this in Montreal in mid 2016. This was far before anyone knew there was gonna be a new album and I remember everyone in the venue trying to place the song. No one knew what the fuck they were listening to but everyone loved it. It came out of nowhere, and it was an almost religious experience. I turned to my friend and said "I haven't heard this before, I don't think anyone has." The experience was only made better by the fact that the venue was an old church, Le Théâtre Paradoxe, in the west end on Montreal. The most fitting place I could imagine them playing.
I had the very same experience in April 2015 in Italy. It was such an impactful and unexpected piece that we all stood up all night talking about it.
That sounds incredible. I want to see them in Montreal, at least once.
@@nothingislostband I`ve seen them twice in Mtl and once in T.O. The Toronto show was a great GSYBE audience, but the Mtl experience was somehow more special given the performances were in the city they call home and there`s a special vibe with the people attending as if they are all more more connected with the group and not mere fans.
I also went to one of the Paradoxe shows and had similar experience. Once it`s over and the ``Where are you going`` is repeating and the lights come the trance I was in ended and I was wondering what I had just been through.
What a story, gy/be are rly the only ones whos music has that impact on you
Honestly, I can't even really handle how perfect this music is. It kinda hurts.
Andromeda Hadouken ✊well said
I feel like it's what i've been searching for a long time
Just saw them for the second time in less than 2 years and just astonished at their cohesiveness as a group. I want to see them in Europe next time to see how fans relate to them compared to us in Canada.
same
IT REALLY FUCKIN DOES
FUCKIN
W O W
This Guys are Genius. Always I listen a piece of them something inside me awake, Is my soul I feel..wow..
+Bianca Gasset I never login to youtube, but I had to say that it happens the same thing to me... It's like godspeed you! release all the things I feel in that moment. Makes me feel so free and weird. (Sorry if I didn't make my self clear. It's difficult for me to explain this in my own language, even harder in english).
Stunning work. I can't find words for this group's creations
Neither can they
Here's Guitar tab! This is for the gorgeous part at 2:19
I play GY!BE Songs in their special tuning, but if you really want to you can play it in standard.
(It's only played on the Db and Bb Strings, so if you just wanna play this small part of the song you don't have to tune all the strings.)
Db-------------------------------------------------------
Bb-------------------------------------------------------
F --------------------------------------------------------
Db-7-7--Then switch to-2-2-Then to-6-6----
Bb--7-7-Then switch to--2-2-Then to--7-7--
Eb/F#---------------------------------------------------
There is a variation at 2:33
Db----------------------------------------------------------
Bb----------------------------------------------------------

Db-7-7--Then switch to-9-9-Then to---11-11--
Bb--7-7-Then switch to--9-9-Then to-10-10---
Eb/F#------------------------------------------------------
Simple yet beautiful... kinda like all the GY!BE Guitar parts.
Have fun with playing it!
Ok everybody, I'll look for the original files, I'm not sure I still have them. If I find them I'll upload them to Google Drive and put the link down here, mkay?
Great
I think it is safe to say the file is lost?
@@Meloen5 If you go to the Internet Archive and search for the band there are a few hundred recordings of live performances.
I found what I *think* is this same (or a very similar) performance on another RUclips video, dated 2015-04-07. iirc I found it on the Archive under that date, so you could probably track it down as well.
Edit: Here's a link! archive.org/details/gybe2015-04-07.aud.flac24
That ending, god damn.
they are almost perfection beyond words or music itself!
The first piece of Godspeed you black emperor's art i heard was the dead flag blues. It gave assurance to me that others felt the same turbulence while imagining the future. From there their music has opened up far more doors in my own appreciation of beauty.
very well said
19:44 Puts the "God" in "Godspeed You! Black Emperor"
that beginning part is chiling, love it
Sobbing uncontrollably. Incredible
Matina ellinida?
literally same tho
I know they're a collective, but without Sophie Trudeau I don't think they'd have a band.
She is the glue that holds it together.
i think if efrim left gybe would fall apart even faster tbh
jackal59 sophie efrim and moya are the most important members
Benjamin Fox Don't forget Dave Bryant, I'd reckon he's written a good portion of Godspeed's iconic guitar lines.
It would seem here, that they're all integral
merci godspeed
I was supposed to see Godspeed You! Black Emperor last year in March in Garden Grove. Last time i saw them was almost a decade ago in Pomona at the Fox theater.
Still to young and naive to fully understand the value.
The worth of myself and of them.
How i am probably the Black Emperor.
Bailey makes more sense and especially the passages the vynl holds on the inside.
Now its my favorite passages from Jeremiah.
Lo and behold
Lo and behold the mass leaving of people due to fear
Lo and behold Mexico pain and misery
Lo and behold the mother crying out
As she gives birth to a son with the weight of the world upon his shoulders
Crying and crying and dying
Coming close to death many times
Jesus no said my mother you are not Jesus
No! As my dad banged the door of the bathroom in anger no your no him
Get out! Leave the house or else i will call the cops
We told you not to hang out with those addicts or dealers
Why not then let me be a good influence on them
As i was kicked out.
I was supposed to see Godspeed You! Black Emperor in Garden Grove on March 2023. How could i when all this madness and my destiny was unfolding before me.
As i said its probably not the right time.
So hopefully whenever they come back around santa ana ill try and buy a ticket and see them live.
Thank you guys for filling me with hope and doing and being angels to god himself.
My Angels my angels my angels are rhe many who found salvation and the connection to the human soul with in music.
The static cries the static voices my abusers the abuser
But the many victims the many kind and lost finding love and hope
I promises i am not tired of being tired because you are all worth it.
Beautiful picture !
+Kessel thanks!
Hopefully this would be in the upcoming LP. Although brand new 4 tracks would be also awesome!
They ripped the soul out of this song on the album version
they really did, i don't understand it.
How did you record this? From the audience? The sound quality is astonishing for unreleased material.
they are a band of many, with a gigantic sound. it's not THAT hard, i would guess.
as always goosebumps with GYBE..... I' ve seen them for the 8th time at Bristol a few months back...it was the best performance of them that I have witnessed until now... The soundtrack of our times and of the times to come...
+mtzion73 Was such a good show. That was my first time seeing them and I never wanted it to end.
I always come back to this video, I love it.
Maybe it is because I got too much used to this "version", but don't you like it better than the (newer) studio version?
I'm re-listening to this version now after months, and damn it's so much better. It's just a bit less clinical and "precise", feels more natural.
The onslaught of Dirty Ennio Morricone at @15:00.
aaa me encanta el vals de alfinal
profavor báilenlo!
Listening as the lake mead water level is rapidly declining,
Great pic! In my imagination, there is a silence room with large landscape picture of a silence town.
It's not just Sophie...its David too. Take either one of these two out, and it wouldn't be the same band. They are the heart and soul! :)
Molte grazie Antonino, non vedevo l'ora che qualcuno la registrasse bene (i volumi del video preso a Bataclan 2016 messo su yt sono incredibilmente schifosi!)...! Immagino tu sia stato allo Zanne. A dire la verità in un impeto di follia ho pensato di prendere un aereo e venire..! Poi ho dovuto fare i conti con la dura realtà.. e restare a Venezia.. Meno male che poi son tornati anche a Novembre.. :)
+martina m. attori ehi, figurati ;) nel 2015 ho avuto la fortuna di vederli 3 volte, anche a Zanne, e probabilmente è stata la migliore delle 3 performance! sul mio canale trovi anche l'altro inedito :)
Genios,Dioses, Mounstros, TITANES.
9:25 that fucking moment when your hand clings to your mouth in a state of astonishment that cannot be properly articulated.
Incredible, GY! BE à tout jamais !!
bellissima!
Great recording!
So... I bit difficult to digest for now. This is the end of the song "railroads" which I love, maybe I am too used to the live version (/watch?v=NBJoNhcArN4) and it will get better with time, as with every GYBE song, they all improve with listenings and time
Their new album is absolutely great. Just as with every of their albums, it's solidified itself more with each listen.
Magnificent

The 3rd track
So I guess no 2016 EP? These songs kick ass though, can't wait for a new release
GYBE can do no wrong in my eyes.
Track is probably 'Anthem for No State' from new forthcoming album 'Luciferian Towers' if the leaked press release is to be believed.
Abandon Strings yeah it is. Constalletion records announced it to be released on 22nd of September
Unfortunate that this version won't be on Luciferian Towers.
what do you mean ? you think they will release the new version (shortest one ?) ? this will be very deceptive for me because I think this version is clearly better
I don't believe that is correct. Anthem for No State Part 3 is definitely this song from about 14:30 onward.
I finally listen the new album. Good point the recording is very good which was not always the case (Béhémoth recording is quite bad in my opinion lack the fury of the live version). About this shortened version I understand what gybe tried to made. A more peacefull song in the spirit of their early tracks. But to me they definitively kill the best part. The first crescendo before the climax was one of my prefered movement of gybe last release. so sad
nice pic. i don't know why, but i'm staring at it for a long time. where did you take this shot?
Sicily, Italy. This building has been like that for 2 years now, I think I could go back anytime and redo the same exact shot.
veramente sono venuti in Sicilia? Se solo lo avessi saputo :(
Eman Lig han suonato a Catania allo Zanne Festival nel 2015, la loro miglior performance che abbia visto.
Maledizione, io li ho scoperti nel 2016, fortunato te che ci hai pure parlato (da quanto ho letto)
Does anyone know when Godspeed will release a new project?
Hey I love the recording and mastering work on both the Godspeed tracks you've done, would it be possible to link me an HQ download?
sounds just like hans zimmer "thin red line"
good
Maybe I should clarify before someone gets touchy...I mean 'heart and soul' musically, NOT conceptually or 'politically'. ;)
Hi Antonio, thanks for uploading this version. Could you list the date and place you recorded this at? I'd like to try and find it on the internet archive. Thanks again.
FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸
This appears to be Anthem for No State on the new album.
it is indeed. I'm not sure if I should change the titles of my 2 videos to the new titles of the tracks, since they are a bit different from the studio versions. what do you all think?
Antonino Modica I wouldn't change them. Like Albanian and Gamelan, they are their own versions in a way.
I ended up only putting the new titles between brackets, as a reference. These are still slightly different pieces than the ones on the record.
Smart move. Thanks again for these posts. They are incredibly mastered for live recordings.
Anytime.
I swear when this was recorded live, with the "view from being on a train" projections that earned it the nickname "Railroads"....there was a video on YT of it with all the train-oriented footage/projections.......but that video has seemingly disappeared. Has anything esle seen/remember what I am referring too?
I remember that video! It wasn't me uploading it, but I really don't know where to find it anymore either...
Is this really a track of the new album? Because I've been checking the track list and there's none with this name. Ty.
Songs / Tracks Listing
1. Undoing a Luciferian Towers (7:47)
2. Bosses Hang (14:45)
3. Fam / Famine (6:44)
4. Anthem for no State (14:38)
Hi Maria. This (alongside the track "Buildings") is a live recorded version from the previous tour, they've been playing these 2 songs for almost 3 years now, and it's likely that they're gonna be on the new records. The titles were given from the fans based on the video projections the band used during the performance of the 2 tracks.
Antonino Modica
Hi. Now I understand. Guess we'll have to wait and see. Thank you.:)
Yep, I heard it on NPR first listen and Anthem For No State is the same as "Railroads" or "New Song #2" and Bosses Hang is the same as "Buildings" or "New Song #1"
the shame is that the records on album are way shorter and played 'faster' than those on concerts, which reminds me of F#a#oo and LYSF times. the band used to give more time to their music on albums...
The song is still 15 minutes long on the album...
Apparently called "Railroads."
+olsonjk2 are you 100% sure? source?
i remember some railroads projections while performing this song in Berlin, but not in Italy. who gave you the info?
It's not an official name. I'm starting to see it called that amongst tapers. New Song 1 is being called "Buildings," and as you pointed out, it has to do with the film contents. It seems odd to me that no one has seen a setlist or talked to someone in the band about this. Anyway, I hope they record these to album soon.
i talked to them (just tim and sophie), and they just told me they still didn't have a title (it was last summer). They probably will release the 2 tracks as an EP early this year.
+Antonino Modica An ep like Slow Riot would be cool.
+Antonino Modica Very nice recording, by the way.
dude you should get in contect with them and master their next releasecause this is not perfect but it's better than the global workon their last record
Thanks! I'd say it's really not about the mastering , but rather the performance of the piece itself. Gotta be honest though, wouldn't mind mastering a new release from them...
Does anyone know if they're putting out any new albums after Asunder?
+Da' Rito The 2 new tracks should come out as an EP, probably during 2016.
*****
Nice. I'll be buying it.
That's what I wanna know, this is my favorite band ever, and I'm so glad they got back together, but I don't think I can wait three more years for another album, HURRY GY!BE
Excellent recording. The first part of this song is near from the best of godspeed. I'm not fan of the second part however.
+Raphael Mazelier whaaaaatt!!! i love the second part! great buildup
Don't misunderstand me. This track is awesome but the second part look more classical to me. Strangely the two new songs are built exactly the same. It's good that godspeed back to more melodic and less powerfull song. I really like behemoth but on the long term this is not as good as previous record (specially Lift)
+Mathieu Guimond Me too!!Love the buildup. The whole song is great.
+Raphael Mazelier
Lift is so overrated in my opinion. The emotion in that album is almost as fake as the "emotion" in emo bands, other Godspeed albums have much more passion and meaning in them.
+Da' Rito Do you really think that, though? I can understand if someone thinks that Lift has cheesy parts; it certaintly has. For me the whole album is full of outbursting, beautifully delivered emotion which is not in the slightest way fake. I mean, at least for me - which means nothing - , it's one of the most deeply moving pieces of modern music. It triggers, I would even say unleashes, emotions that are buried deep down in my psyche. I don't know many albums which can do that.
if the song is called railroads why is there a picture of a building??
pretty sure it's called railroads because they played video of railroads while they played the song in concert. i don't think they have actually named the song yet.
I was trying to make a (bad) joke because the other new song is called buildings
your joke sucks ass, fuck off
Look at the floor under the window. See them?
The different check conversly report because blade critically prepare by a sore baker. aberrant, simplistic wheel
don't like this as much as some of their other stuff.. not great sound quality to be honest, maybe it's that that's spoiling it for me.
+Martin Harrison This is from a live recording that was mastered by the OP. The album version will certainly sound better, but this is a great production from what the OP had to work with.
