    That bit at 2:05 tho
    So simple, but so damn good. I could listen to it all day, especially with Mark's bass at the front.

  • @scalethesummit
    @scalethesummit  11 років тому +3

    thanks man. i filmed Olive Tree and Narrow Salient while I was up there as well. will be releasing those spaced out with play throughs from the guys over the next month. keep an eye out! -chris

    • @KaijuAlert
      @KaijuAlert 3 роки тому

      Chris, you should upload make make public the video of Mark doing the bass playthrough for this song. I know he isn't in the band now, but that video was an insanely good advert for the music. I bought records off the back of that video.

    I was watching this and thought...Damn this looks like Colorado... And it is! I just moved from Colorado to Philadelphia, and I miss it SO much! Colorado is the place to be. I can't wait to come home for the Summer and go camping. I love that your music makes me think of how epic nature is. Keep up the awesome music!

      The Lives Of The Wild Ones Well the album cover for The Migration is downright the most Nature-ific cover art I have yet to see so it's only fitting that such emotions are felt

    Probably because they were on tour and were most likely playing a show in CO and executed the idea while they were there. CO is indeed beautiful.

  • @rippingthroughmetal
    @rippingthroughmetal 11 років тому

    I wouldn't think about it that way. listen to this and see him play it and it is kind of deflating, but it quickly encourages me to keep playing, so I can be like this some day. It's paying off, since I'm learning how to do the part at 3:52. It's horribly sloppy right now, but the more I practice, the more clean it becomes. :)

  • @vincewoodard1816
    @vincewoodard1816 10 років тому +1

    So this must be what inspired Oscar Hammerstein. Hmm maybe The title and vintage sounding intro must be clues that STS has harnessed the ability to time travel?..

  • @beforehonour
    @beforehonour 11 років тому +1

    The solo at 4:13 is my favorite. Your band's ability to use slides, bends, and rests sets you apart from so many progressive musicians because it adds emotion and flare. Fantastic work. Your album's been on replay since it came out.

    I'm sorry, but isen't this just a quiet video dubbed with the actual audio from the CD? TBH i liked the playthroughs where you could actually hear the man play. Maybe it's just mixed to well, i don't know. but i prefer the other playthroughs, all though the location and filming is amazing.
