This record has pulled me through so many dark times in my life. I wish this band hadn’t disappeared. Every now and then I look for related projects these artists are involved in and I come up empty handed. If you were a part of this project, thank you for the beauty and shine you cast in the darkest corners. You give me hope when there is nothingness. Thank you.
this is still among the best of the music from this time period. i played in a band called good night and good morning, and this record was definitely a big influence on us. we were labelmates but sadly never got to see or play with them.
I have just stumbled on this now.. you must know your work in Goodnight and Good Morning holds equal in my heart. Narrowing Type has carried me through the last few years... so many strange disparate gems seemingly bringing me back to Own Records. How did they capture so much lightning in their bottles! And so many of them unfortunately still hidden. Anyways.. funny to come across your comment. I'm tumbling on this work through one of its members work in a strange electronic project Planar that I found years ago. .. anyways know that there's a few of us out there wandering in the woods with headphones on and the beautiful blanket of melancholy that you worked on with Goodnight and Goodmorning still sheltering us in life's storms! Cheers!
abutting dismantling is really one of the greatest songs of all time and i have been coming back to it over and over for 12 years and it never gets old
I love this band. This album has pulled me through awful times. Abutting dismanting is probably the best song on the album and is in my top 10 best songs ever and this band also introduced me to kafka and Bosch from looking up gregor samsa and jeroen van aken was boshes birth name. Love bands who help me find other artists, poets, films, music, or even science and philosophy.

Who would've thought a giant cockroach could make such beautiful music. Love this. Beauty too can come from darkness and monstrosity.
Gregor Samsa is the name of the main character in Kafka's "The Metamorphosis". He awakes one day only to find he's turned into a giant cockroach. It's truly a great read!
I keep coming back time and time again to listen to this album, and every time, I like it even more than the time before. What a beautiful piece of music. It hits me right in the feels. Gives me these haunting, melancholy, nostalgic feelings that are both profoundly sad and profoundly happy somehow. Definitely one of my favorite albums.
38:28 Pretend that I'm fine Fear not Youth dies And it's Here that You'll lie Just stop Wasting Your time And pray Faith keeps You Alive What a beautiful song. Post Rock is so heavy. A different kind of heavy.
The Abutting, Dismantling-Company-Jeroen Van Aken sequence is one of the most wonderful sonic experiences any human being can have. This is powerful, powerful stuff!
Love all gregor samsa stuff to death. Never have I been attached to music like I have last few days obsessively relistening thier albums and eps. Its just so melancholic, nostalgic, euphoric, hopeful, mesmerizing and blissful. Just perfect vibes all the way. I will forever love and enjoy these songs.
I feel you man, yes! Gregor Samsa is just so amazingly deep and they have such beautiful instrumentation and nostalgic echoes that grip me right in the feels
I listen to all kinds of music. Rock, alternative, metal, classical, hip-hop etc, but this is my favorite album of all time. It's music like this that truly takes you to a whole other place. Amazing.
I just love this album. So. So. Soooo. Much. I LOVE THIS ALBUM! So MUCH! UUGH! I LOVE IT!! Every note of every song, and all the pauses in between. I just love it. I love it love it love it!!
I saw them live in 2008 and I even have a shirt of them. They are awesome! Anybody has a download link for the album? I bought it back then but the CD is somehow lost.
Went to a protest today.. It was beautiful.. It gives me hope that this country will not slide back into the stone age.. The first track on this album makes me feel at even more peace, after seeing that outpouring of hope!! Make America Safe Again!! Restore The Love!!
tapaddtiiiii that's not plagiarism in the slightest, they probably heard the piano riff from auto-rock and used it as the base for their own song. For it to be plagiarism then they'd need to be passing off something that sounds almost note for note the same as auto-rock, which they didn't

Great album, and it's not even on Spotify

Amen! Amen! I am grateful that this album was recorded, and that we can still listen to it over and over again. Gregor Samsa is never truly lost!
ruclips.net/video/PYtaKSp9X1k/видео.html it was before Gregor samsa, but the vocalist was in a trad emo band named Excite Bike
@@SplendidFellow how many innocent children did god kill on Passover?
@@bazookallamaproductions5280 A lot of first borns, I dunno. No clue why you commented that, but thanks for reminding me to listen to this yet again
Thank you OP, hard same!
every once in a while i come here for a good old cry.
Really wish this was on Spotify, but glad it's here :)
Every time I hear The Adolescent I am in complete awe. Just how?

I feel you. I feel that way about every single note of every song on this album. I come back again and again. And I keep leaving comments lol
I love this band. This album has pulled me through awful times. Abutting dismanting is probably the best song on the album and is in my top 10 best songs ever and this band also introduced me to kafka and Bosch from looking up gregor samsa and jeroen van aken was boshes birth name.

I don't get it

+Nené Serrano wow that sounds weird, I think I wanna read it thanks
Oh my gosh! Gregor Samson makes sense now! thank you! :D
Kafka is alive!!!
Love the whole track ❤
I lost count of how many times I've listened to this album. Love it so much.
Same. I have returned to this album time and time again.
And time and time and time again.
I love you guys

Best album by Gregor Samsa
Gives me goosebumps everytime.

Pretend that I'm fine
Fear not
Youth dies
And it's
Here that
You'll lie
Just stop
Wasting
Your time
And pray
Faith keeps
You Alive
What a beautiful song. Post Rock is so heavy. A different kind of heavy.
The Abutting, Dismantling-Company-Jeroen Van Aken sequence is one of the most wonderful sonic experiences any human being can have. This is powerful, powerful stuff!
I’ve been listening to this album for about 7 years but only consciously remember the first 10 minutes because I use it to sleep
"Du Meine Leise" makes me feel like I am not yet born
Love all gregor samsa stuff to death. Never have I been attached to music like I have last few days obsessively relistening thier albums and eps. Its just so melancholic, nostalgic, euphoric, hopeful, mesmerizing and blissful. Just perfect vibes all the way. I will forever love and enjoy these songs.
I feel you man, yes! Gregor Samsa is just so amazingly deep and they have such beautiful instrumentation and nostalgic echoes that grip me right in the feels
Found this album due to involvement of Toby and Mia from Kayo Dot. Such a beautiful work of art.
Post-Rock is Love, Post-Rock is Life!
Band: Anathema
Album(s): We're here because we're here + each album thereafter...
"Jeroen Van Aken" is magic! This is a wonder of a song! Gregor Samsa is (was?) a wonder of a band!
Was... Sadly :(
I miss them so much...
I listen to all kinds of music. Rock, alternative, metal, classical, hip-hop etc, but this is my favorite album of all time. It's music like this that truly takes you to a whole other place. Amazing.
This is still my favourite post rock album
This album, is my life!!! ♥
I just love this album. So. So. Soooo. Much. I LOVE THIS ALBUM! So MUCH! UUGH! I LOVE IT!! Every note of every song, and all the pauses in between. I just love it. I love it love it love it!!
I love it I love it I love it love it I love it
OMG Gregor Samsa. I cannot believe it.
I found this album by chance! Pretty good =)
Woke up and realized that I was Lucid Dreaming, while this track was on.
That's weird. I woke up to find I'd transformed into a giant insect.
that's a serious condition!

I just found out that "Jeroen Van Aken" was actually the proper name of the painter Hieronymus Bosch! Very interesting
Went to a protest today.. It was beautiful.. It gives me hope that this country will not slide back into the stone age.. The first track on this album makes me feel at even more peace, after seeing that outpouring of hope!! Make America Safe Again!! Restore The Love!!
Rendered Yards 28:02 = wow

Came here from night 2
mogwai .
Mogwai - Auto Rock
48:08
This movement here... 34:08
The first song, "The Adolescent", sound WAY too much like Mogwai's "Auto-Rock" to not be a case of clear fucking plagiarism.
As clear as plagiarism gets.
tapaddtiiiii that's not plagiarism in the slightest, they probably heard the piano riff from auto-rock and used it as the base for their own song. For it to be plagiarism then they'd need to be passing off something that sounds almost note for note the same as auto-rock, which they didn't
herp derp uses a few of the same notes and the same time signature, must be plagiarism herp derp
the songs are not even remotely similar, fuck off
