Brann Dailor says of this track; "This is another one I wrote back when I was in this one apartment of mine. I call it the Sadness Hole. I don’t want to get into why I was there, but just to be clear, I wasn’t strung out on drugs or anything like that. It was a personal time. But the last riff really sounded like the end of something. It’s sad-sounding, but there’s also some hope there. So we put some string arrangements on it and Brent did this really beautiful guitar solo. The last line is for Nick John (their longtime manager who lost his battle with pancreatic cancer a few years back): ‘The mountains we made in the distance will be with us forever.’ I think it’s a beautiful farewell".
I didn't know. Thanks for passing this on; I feel like I learned something from that last quote.
Wow, thanks for sharing, then again nothing this band does is without meaning, that's what makes them so great - among other things :)
Thanks for sharing.
Brann being a Pisces for over 6 minutes🖤
That last riff, part of the song and the guitar solo, are beautiful and epic. I find it very uplifting and hopeful.
If this song isn't played at my funeral, I'm not going.
Original 😒
@@jinsakai9729 Guilty.
@@kieranstrickland1289 forgiven
@@jinsakai9729 sayeth the "Ghost" 😉
underrated
Brent did it again. Another MAJESTIC AF solo. What a fuckin player. What a band. I'm in heaven rn
I'm not being funny but Brent's gotta go down In history as one of the true greats on guitar, he just has that swagger to sing out loud on guitar and also with a signature style.
Whole song is fkn majestic 👍
This is an amazing album. I feel it is an evolution on Cold Dark Place which was such a gift.
Some reminders of latest gone is gone album here too
i feel quite the opposite, this album feels like an uninspired cold dark place
@@mattar666 what? Lol. Being wrong sucks .
@@mattar666 I initially felt the same way, but the album is better than I thought. I think we just have to accept that nothing can top Cold Dark Place. It's easily in my top 5 pieces of music ever. There's some good stuff in this album, especially with Brents solos
@@lostinthesauce3473 i'll give this album another go for sure, but my first impression was the feeling of a pasteurized cold dark place to be easier to listen.
This is the one I keep repeating so far. It's like... probably one of the most bittersweet and uplifting heavy songs I've ever heard. It's alot of uncharted terrain for Mastodon. The only past song of theirs that this reminds me of is, oddly enough, Creature Lives, more so in the front half. The back half, however, sounded like a perfect marriage of Queens of the Stone Age and Alice in Chains. Shit, it even has vibes of Radiohead and U2. They somehow infused 90s alt rock goodness into this masterpiece. The 90s being a decade I clearly remember, having been born in the 80s. (1984)
It's like all the grief, sadness, depression, anxiety and heavy-heartedness of the journey got to the end and there was a silver lining or a ray of light poked through the clouds. Then it all just kinda breaks open and the sun is there shining, as it always is...even when it's obscured by the storms and the clouds. Ugh. I hate writing stuff this heartfelt on the internet but this is as good a time as any. 🖤
Creature lives was absolutely one of those songs that gave me chills when i listened to it for the first 20 times. God just thinking about this album has me missing everyone that i love.
Creature Lives was also the first thing that came to my mind when I listened to this.
I like to think that this is a sequel to creature lives.
@@ryanrodriguez5495 yesss a really big, epic sequel!
Very awesome description of this song! I know some of the old school Mastofans will long for the Death, sludge, metal days. But being a musician myself. I know that a natural progression of musical ability is inevitable. They definitely have created a masterpiece IMHO!
This song, from 3:30 on, gives me goosebumps all over, even made me tear up a little. This is one of the greatest Mastodon songs ever for me, and an absolutely outstanding way to close the album. What an incredible band.
That last riff, part of the song and the guitar solo, are beautiful and epic. I find it very uplifting and hopeful.
Thats wild, I REALLY like the first half, just because of how beautiful, Zen, and uplifting it is. The second half just gets dark... But most of their music is that way. So I really value the first half personally
Brann's singing of the last few verses is absolutely incredible. That tone is just so beautiful.
Tone of the whole album is 👌🏼
Sick huh? He is just getting good and super good at it. Brann da man!
can't beleive he can drum and sing so smooth it blows me away every time how amazing this band is
Gigantium
I wish I could run forever
Not concerned if I am found
I wish I had all the answers
I wish I knew what went wrong
Whatever you say is too late
Speak it before you run
Waiting is just a mistake
I just need you to whisper
Tell me all is well
You deserve to be happy
Not stuck knee deep in hell
Whatever you say is too late
Speak it before you run
Waiting is just a mistake
It pains me to see you this way
To erase you is what I fear
You're swimming through my head
It keeps you near
But all we said was too late
Still, you intend to run
Chasing another mistake
It pains me to see you this way
To erase you is what I fear
You're swimming through my head
It keeps you near
My love, so strong
Washing the dirt away
As the snakes all go to their holes
My love, so strong
Bathing in turpentine
Until the flesh and bone come undone
My love, so strong
Deflecting the thoughts of strangers
To reach the other side
My love, so strong
The mountains we made in the distance
Those will stay with us
Thank you
Troy's yell on "near" is so epic.
Your name speaks to me on a very deep level.
💙💚💛💜💔💔💔
Youre the first person I've ever met with the same first name as me!!!
Nobody makes me cry my own tears.. apart from brent when he riffs, hes a fkn genius.
I care bro, same here. Mark of a true artist. When they can evoke emotions with no words. It’s beautiful
Same. Same. Same.
"Those mountains we made in the distance...those will stay with us" Jesus Brann...wow.
Am I the only one that finished the song on tears?
Haven't cried in ages...this song gave me a mental breakdown after driving home after nightshift.
Why would you be the only one?
Absolutely fantastic album and song
You are not alone 😭
@@alcrapone1131 Not a mental breakdown, brother. Mental breakthrough.
Those last verses are some of the best written by Mastodon. With Brann's voice getting better and better. The tone he brings in that part is masterpiece. And that ambience, that uplifting finish. That's gold to me. Makes me wanna keep listening to that outro for hours and hours repeatedly.
I started spontaneously singing Brann's "my love" verses at the end, then had to back it up and do that again two more times with extra attention and volume. So goddamn good... then Brent rolls in with a fucking Hendrix/Prince-level solo that is the most painful and beautiful thing I've ever heard.
The opening two verses are so strong to me. Just so relatable to where I am in my life at this moment.
I find it funny that when you see them in like cooking videos, mini-videos like Brann and Bill presenting the vinyle or the four videos "promoting" this album, they look a bit too litteraly like clowns not taking things seriously. But you can tell they put all their heart, mind and soul in their music.
The power and emotion prevalent in Hushed and Grim easily excels it to one of my all time favorite Mastodon albums. They made something so special, this branching tribute to band manager Nick John touches so many dark places but it shines brightly in others as well. Mastodon is a magical band.
Brann's singing before the amazing ending solo gives me crazy goosebumps! Brilliant album!
Every time!!!
So good. Amazing singing. The lyrics and the music too. Painfully good.
@@mennofennema9829 Actually fruitcake, many care hence the likes.
This album has elements of Cold Dark Place, Gone is gone
The more I listen to this album the better it gets
What an album!
Not a single ''bad'' song.
And the second half of this song...
Holy shit, one of the best chord-proggressions i've heard in a while. Absolutely beautiful.
“My love, so strong”
It’s such a simple line but it’s so powerful. The guitars are grieving in the only way they know how. Despite the drum’s tempo tapering off, each note kicks harder. As if I wasn’t crying already, the lyrics decide to make it so much worse. I can FEEL the emotion pouring out of every word.
So direct, because there’s no other way you could say it. So powerful because it says all the things you wanted to. “I miss you” “It hurts that I’ll never see you again” “I wish I could tell you all of this again” “It hurts that I can’t”
And then after everything’s been said, the guitar solo sings to you in a way that words could never. I don’t know how someone can make an instrument tear up, but the melody holds no punches as if you're the only one that can hear, the tune wells up with sorrow, and the guitar is barely keeping it together, but can’t afford leave things unfinished.
This song is very special to me.
My mom is very ill right now. This song made think about her in a very comforting way
This song absolutely crushes as the final track! That solo! My love, So Strong!
I’ve heard this song a million times since release but I just listened to it the millionth and one time and wow this time that whole ending part leading up made me get very emotional/ chills goosebumps etc and Bam that solo just made the tears start flowing. I’m so thankful that this band exist. I don’t think I’ve come to terms with my cousins death and it’s getting really close to the anniversary and this song just hit so different this time
WOW… the F-ing emotions I felt listening to this for the first time. Been a long while since a song did that to me.
Yet another soul flaying, dimensional portal ripping, heart thrashing Mastodon album. Killer
Ain't that the frikken truth!!!
I thought they could never outdo Jaguar God’s solo, but here I stand corrected
Epic. The solo was definetely recorded on the top of a mountain 🏔
Right, who else is fighting back the tears by the end of this absolute masterpiece of a song? God damn I love Mastodon
With you brother. Legendary song
I'm just glad to be alive when this band is making music. So good
"Creature Lives" vibes on this bad boy.
The Torche influence runs deep on this
Good to see I'm not the only one who thought that :D
Totally. So glad you thought the same. Torche rules.
Torche 🔥
Incredible song! Especially 3:30 and onwards.
My love, so strong!
Came here to say the same thing. Holy shit, I don't think I've ever heard anything so huge and majestic before. One hopes they get a chance to perform live with a string quartet
the lyrics and the composition on this track are beyond words. I cried like a baby. Holy shit, this goes into the "play it at my funeral" playlist.
look at My chemical romance- the world is ugly. Very similar to this song
@@kimp.4697 I know MCR. Disenchanted has been in that playlist for years.
The production is insanely clean! It's completely amazing in headphones!
An amazing album with Gigantium being the jewel in a spectacular crown. Brought tears to my eyes ….
This is like one of the best songs ever written wtf bro
My favorite song on this album. This song really hits deep with me.
This album is incredible.
There's not enough credit in the world 🌍 this band deserves to have. Saying their music is amazing is an understatement. Their music just keeps getting better and better I listen to them all of time🔥 💯😎👍
Best Band ever!!!
@@wc1994 I know man! I'm happy I got to see them live at least once in my life at the '05 Ozzfest when they started getting famous. Can't wait to see them again!
What a beautiful ending to a phenomenal album. Mastodon can do no wrong
I agree I am friends with Brent he is from my hometown of Helena Alabama and without being bias here Brent is in my top 2-3 guitarist of all time
Beautiful. Just... beautiful.
This album is magical.
That last 3 mins 30 are chopping onion eye wateringly good.
Al ser un doble álbum he esperado hasta que he podido para sentarme a oscuras en mi casa, ponerme los auriculares buenos y dedicarle el tiempo que se merece y acabo de terminarlo.
Estoy flipando, qué puto disco, qué maravilla! Me siento tan jodidamente orgulloso de ser coetáneo de esta banda, de ser fan total, de ver su evolución, que me caen hasta de puta madre los 4 tíos, 4 genios hacedme caso.
Únicos.
Es buenísimo, de 15 canciones no sobra ni una. Y me encanta que Brann Dailor cante tanto en este disco, su voz transmite muchísimo. Hay que disfrutar a esta banda hasta la última nota que toquen
So Pre-release I had every Mastodon song on shuffle... and IMO there is not one bad song. HUSHED AND GRIM is my new instant favorite. I’ve turned it over roughly 12 times this weekend. What a journey! Thank you Mastodon! Love your music!
I marathoned every album in no particular order probably 3x leading up to this
3:27 HOOOOOOLY SHIIIIT! It's sooooo beautiful! ♥♥♥♥♥ Great way to end an album!
Had it all has to be the best track on the album, but as a whole this album is a masterpeice
Goosebumps toward the end of this song...every. single. time. Unreal emotion in that Brent solo.
What a way to end an album. A masterpiece that sticks with you long after it ends.
"You deserve to be happy
Not stuck knee deep in hell" fuck yeah
Mastodon is like Jordan in the clutch they always deliver
My love, so strong
The mountains we made in the distance
Those will stay with us
Okay I just listened to the whole album. I really love the sound of this album it's absolutely massive. As with most mastodon I'll have to chew on it for a while, but the tracks that I resonated the most with are: The Beast, Skeleton of Splendor, and this one Gigantium.
Great analogy, you do have to chew on some albums more than others. Ultimately you just can’t digest some, but others don’t take much at all. This album feels like it might be the latter
@@jonnomiller9304 Hopefully it's not more than I can chew. 👈😉👉
What a final track man I can't get enough of this album what a masterpiece
Lost my dad last year and this song just hits so hard. Incredible work boys!!
This Music is awesome, i lost my father this year too, greetings from Brazil.
I lost my father in 2004, Leviathan was the album and the song Hearts alive got me through a devastating time. Been a huge fan since
RIP for your losses. Lost my cousin almost 4 years ago due to over dose but I think he may have killed himself. I don’t think I’ve fully comprehended it yet.
This album/song has really got to me
My pops is currently battling ALS and this song speaks to me on another level
One of the most emotional song Mastodon ever wrote. Top notch lyrics and song arrangement ❤
That outtro is the best I've ever heard from any band, and I've listened to a lot of bands
OMG! Those harmonies! This is incredible. I'm so impressed. This whole album is so creative and thought out. Everything is so intentional, like every little detail. It blows my mind. 💛💛💛
Epic closure for this wonderful album 🔝🔝🔝
Mastodon?? More like Masterpiece!! I'm blown away by the entire album and especially this song!! Thanks fellas!!
I grew up with some angry music and it helped get me through things. Nothing really changed though. People still want to fight. It’s exhausting. Thank you for this entire album. A guy like me needed it. ❤️
They have done it again! So different from any of the other albums yet still very Mastodon. I love these guys! Honestly, how could you not?
Stunned beyond imagination. I just downloaded it from Amazon. Give them their due. Buy it. Giving me real music satisfaction.
Their finest since crack the Skye, double prog heaven that guitar solo at the end omg!
Such a beautiful song. I had a tear in my eye and then the heat of that final solo dried it off my face because how 🔥 it was.
I am a latecomer to mastodon even though I'd heard them, but when Emperor of Sand came out I felt such a profound kinship with the music that I began to backlog ( you know like we all do ) and just couldn't wait to see what they would do next.
I worried that I missed their career and maybe Emperor is their Swansong, and then this comes out. A beautiful heart tugging mastery. Thank you Mastodon
Welcome home brother, we're all here to stay.
I have a hard time listening to this song without tears streaming down my face and I can't stop
"My love, so strong
The mountains we made in the distance
Those will stay with us."
Wow.
My God, so beautiful. Moved me to tears.
Damn man. Mastodon just hits different
"i Guess you guys aren't ready for that yet, but your kids are gonna love it."
Man.... the way Eyes of Serpents bleeds into this track -- what a musical combo/journey
Man, what a privilege it's been to be alive at the same time as these four incredible musicians. 21 years of astonishing music
Yeah this is epic asf. Definetly a double album closer
busk,fish,jog,and clown on forever
Greatest guitar solo of all time, if your ears aren't ringing once its over you didn't play it loud enough
This album is a masterpiece. It's a classic.
Incredible album after the first listen and what a way to finish it.
Just need a UK tour now.. Please play Rock City in Nottingham again!
That outro starting at 3:30 is magnifiscent. What a great conclusion. Powerful, melodic and bittersweet.
my love so strong for mastodon
Absolutely fucking in love with how the song goes back to More Than I Could Chew for the second half
"You deserve to be happy..."
I have listened to this song like 70 times now, and everytime the outrro riff begins my hair stand up on my spine and my arms like my body still can't fathom how it truly makes me feel. amazing
I'd be happy for that cello at the end to go on for another twenty minutes or so..... Masterful
Mastodon’s “ When the Leve Breaks” and that’s a great thing!
GOOD GODAM LAWD. Am at the last track and have to say the new album even thôgh 4 years later is a bloody masterpiece. Kelliher and Hinds are 2 guitar Gods. Troy Sanders is like a senior Gandalf and Brann is a cheeky chap with a cool fun streak. May they go on for another 3 decades and also get a well deserved spot in the Rock Hall of Fame in 2028. Another gem of an album, a masterpiece above ground. Kudos to David Bottrill for bringing in a new sound and a sense of unity. Mastodoniañs REJOICE 🤩😹🤣🙏🏻💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
Gawd damn. That was a ride. I listened to this far more times than I care to admit.
Metal album of the year for sure
Beautiful epic ending. 🎶 🖤
I wake up every morning with this song in my head. I have to listen to this song at least once a day ❤️ this album is a fucking masterpiece and I never was a mastodon fan till this album dropped.
Hushed and Grim are the finest son of Cold Dark Place
Haven't cried for some time but hearing the second half from Gigantium it was quite easy.
A fucking masterpiece. A perfect example of a recorded composition.
Masterpiece. No more no less.
dAMN, this album is over now. Amazing musical journey. Was my first time through it.
3:27 perfect break for the song. Exact the middle.
The whole album has a sad and at the same time beautiful atmosphere, something difficult to achieve by itself, marked by the tragedy that was the loss of Nick John. But, with Gigantium, the band change the harmony and go to major mode. They manage to close the work with a luminous, hopeful and vital theme, especially in its second half, without abandoning the underlying melancholy. Gigantium is a masterpiece and the perfect closure to an outstanding album.
Love every song on this album, but they definitely saved the best for last with this one. Brann's vocals on the 2nd half of the song are incredible.
No coincidence that when I return to this song there are 222 k views.... Thank you, big guy
This isn't the kind of song I'd of expected of Mastodon....nor would of wanted, yet It's become my favourite for It's immense second half, pure talent and emotion at It's best.
(for the band) Our love, so strong.....
This isn't a track..its a work of art!
