Forget about how awesome this track is, forget how awesome it sounds live, and the recording equipment mentioned above....... There is something very cool about the commentary in the beginning from some guy in the crowd......this track is mesmerizing in the beginning, but when the guy in the crowd is talking about "we're good now, stop with the bad days - have good days. If your health is good, you're good". Exceptional message during a great beginning of the song. Thanks to whoever you are.
This video is the reason why I got tickets to see Yob live in February. I already enjoyed the band, but some artists just don't sound good live. This recording is better than the album version to me, I adore it. I knew there was no question that they sound amazing live. Thanks for the recording, man.
Saw them in 2011 laying the AJZ in Bielefeld/Germany to waste and ruins. Absolutely jawdropping liveband. Never missed a record out eversince, these guys kick it for me all the time masterfully.
Lyrics, if anyone was wondering: Siren's call From the sea Raging current Pulls us under Fighting for air Scream for release As colors dance and weave To the universe we send A reflection Adrift in the ocean Colors take hold Shadows take shape Shimmering Neutral substratum Vast without end Our heart's evolution Dreams of gods Of us Of the fall Dreams of mountains We feel To the marrow To commune With what we lost It won't be long
Same, this has to be my favorite Yob song and one of my favorite songs generally. This live version is better than the album version IMO, I love the deeper vocals. Especially the way he sang "Shimmering" in this; it's just one word, but it sticks out. Gorgeous song, I wish I had been there live to hear this rendition.

I think about this guy often and his message. I'm glad you pointed it out...
I always admire bands like YOB that can play these amazing and insanely lengthy tracks one after another.
Love this track.
If your health is good its a good day.
You know it's good when the lyrics dont drop until after the 6:00 mark

YOB's premiere track! I have listened to it a thousand times.
Travis Foster is such a talented drummer.
He really puts everything into his performance
Man they sound so amazing live. Every time too
Man I really need to see YOB live 🔥
Go for it! Saw them last summer as they toured with Neurosis and they were fantastic. Both Mike and Aaron have great stage presence.
YOB for president!
What a great show. I was there. R.i.P. Big top
All their songs are fuckin epic!
Absolutely incredible! Yob is Love ❤️

Lyrics, if anyone was wondering:
Siren's call
From the sea
Raging current
Pulls us under
Fighting for air
Scream for release
As colors dance and weave
To the universe we send
A reflection
Adrift in the ocean
Colors take hold
Shadows take shape
Shimmering
Neutral substratum
Vast without end
Our heart's evolution
Dreams of gods
Of us
Of the fall
Dreams of mountains
We feel
To the marrow
To commune
With what we lost
It won't be long
Thanks!
Imants Safronovs No worries, it's my favorite YOB song, deserved the Lyrics

cute mistake Mike :) 8:55 Best song everrr
Drop A Tuning. ;)
What kind of guitar is that?
Great recording sound!
Does anyone know what the tuning is for this song?
Sounds like a drop A but I'm not sure.....
Peter Enderberg I'm pretty sure they play in drop A.
Standard A not drop!
That's kind of what I was thinking, but it doesn't look quite right. I don't know, whatever it is it's rad.
Does anyone know what tuning Mike plays in?
A flat
A Standard, so from low to high, ADGCEA
A BC Rich Mockingbird, I believe.
