Godspeed is perfect to listen to while doing something else if you still pay attention. Listen to the build-ups and then lose yourself when the crescendos begin.



Edit: Slow Riot is also my favorite. I might 5 it someday.

This is a pretty sweet album but Godspeed on the whole doesn't really surpass a 4 for me.

This could be because my ipod/headphones broke months ago and I've been reduced to listening to everything on terrible computer speakers.

Yeah probs cause Rom my man this is definitely 5 material. Shit's ace.





Also, if you guys ever listen to this while it's raining with an open headset, it's pretty much like you died and are having one of the most intense spiritual experiences ever.

You need to have exactly the right mood to make the most of this album.



"Sleep" gives me shivers. Everytime.

I can't see the hype in this band.

Side note though, I love in Pineapple Express where Seth Rogan is talking to his girlfriend and says "you're gonna go off to college and listen to Godspeed You Black Emperor" haha made me think of this site.

Good review. I rarely have the patience to listen to this whole thing. Its good, but really not my thing at the end of the day.

This thing is too bloated, expected, and (at the end of the day) a watered-dwon version of GY!BE.

Great review Knott. Sadly I've only heard Slow Riot and haven't listened to it enough
