My husband introduced me to this band. I am really grateful for it. We're in our 40's and can so easily get bogged down in our old 90's stuff, but he's always searching for new and exciting music. Slothrust is something I would have listened to in my 20's but somehow really appeals to me now.
Check out Forth Wanderers. I am the same way, I've played and burned out on all my 90's stuff and was that guy that said good music is dead for a while, but there are still so many great bands if you look hard enough.
The reason im so in love with their music is the way it truly is emotion. Its not trying to imitate or tell of an emotion. It simply embodies it and its wonderful. Captivating.
I learned that hunger is a symptom Of adopting bad behavior I bit my tongue last night Woke up with blood on my pillow I woke up thirsty Words make less sense to me these days Faces look flat and unfamiliar Do you wanna rest forever? Underwater, it gets better When I get better, I'll treat you like I used to I'll do the things you want me to Sometimes I feel like I'm a seahorse Sometimes I think that I'm a horseshoe crab I don't have anything in common with myself Except that I came from the sea like everyone else did. It is so unfamiliar now Everything is so unfamiliar now I learned that hunger is a symptom Of adopting bad behavior I bit my tongue last night Woke up with blood on my pillow I woke up thirsty Words make less sense to me these days Faces look flat and unfamiliar Do you wanna rest forever? Underwater, it gets better When I get better, I'll treat you like I used to I'll do the things you want me to Sometimes I feel like I'm a seahorse Sometimes I think that I'm a horseshoe crab I don't have anything in common with myself Except that I came from the sea, like everyone else did But it is so unfamiliar now Everything is so unfamiliar now
This song reminds me of a line from T.S. Eliot, "I should have been a pair of ragged claws / Scuttling across the floors of silent seas" But in all fairness, it is sort of a power ballad. Very nice - I keep coming back to it
This is always the album I turn to when I'm experiencing big feelings about my past trauma and for three years it has provided me with so much comfort. this song is for the dissociation/depression, shoutout to slothrust for making music that somehow perfectly captures the feelings I have.
not that anyone was asking for an update to this comment but 5 years later I've learned I likely have quiet bpd, and this album was my bpd moods album without me even knowing it. they were conforting me long before I knew what they were comforting me for 🥲
I found this song randomly yesterday on Apple Music and I instantly fell in love. I love the emotion and the passion and the voice. I just adore it all. I don't know what it means and yet it truly speaks to me. This is art.
I went to see this band play in a cave with Highly Suspect and instantly fell in love with their music. Honestly they're way too underrated, they kill it live. I'll definitely be going to their shows more often.
Thank you so much for writing your music and sharing it with the world. Last time I was homeless, sleeping in my car in the winter as lost as anyone could have been, this song and sleep eater gave me so much comfort. Your music saves people. Thank you.
I didn’t start discovering the few good bands that existed in the 2010’s until last year and I’m pissed that I missed the heyday. I have an obsession with being apart of things from the start. Here’s to the 2020s
I don't think I've ever been in such awe after watching a music video. I had heard the song, yes, was already in love with it, but this video is so strangely normal yet beyond anything I've ever seen. I don't know how to describe it. I'd been wondering for a while if Slothrust is my favourite band ever, and this has just cemented it at this top spot in my head. I fucking love these guys so much.
As a person who's lived a long life of depression and loneliness this song always hits me in a good way especially when she starts belting the lyrics out loud I freaking love it yay depression and isolation😈
I saw you guys in Charlotte the other night (November 19th, 2019). Leah, you walked on stage, picked up your guitar and was getting yourself together, and I just started crying then and there. Utterly shocked. And then I cried at this, and I cried at Peach. And it was so beautiful, it was so amazing. My friends and I were some of the only people dancing, which is such a shame. Y'all deserve a more passionate crowd. You met some of my friends, actually. Elliot, short with green hair and glasses, Jacob, tall and gangly, and Steven, tall fluffy blond. They were all starstruck and kept talking about you. I wish I'd known, I would've loved to talk to you. Maybe you can come to Charleston SC and give me a second chance? Edit: Elliot is actually my sister. She introduced me to both you and Highly Suspect. Seeing you and Highly Suspect with her was perfect, and I wouldn't trade that night for anything. She and I don't always get along. Thank you for being one of the things that keep us close
Genie I was there as well- right in the front row center stage- beautiful concert and I can firmly say I am now a fan of Slothrust whom which I previously didn’t care for. Saw a glimpse of them at the Epicenter but only the end of their concert waiting for Knocked Loose- and didn’t really get enough out of it to say I liked them. Blew both me and my girlfriends socks off how good they were
@@paradigma101 it's literally a rip off of porcupine tree - trains. I do recommend you check it out, regardless of originality their production quality is incomparable to this
@@yannickramault6378 I don't believe in gods, karmas and shit so, I trust only myself to do this justice: thank you from the bottom of my heart. It indeed is the most important band I've never heard of.
@@yannickramault6378 it's not a ripoff. they both follow a I iii chord sequence, Horseshoe Crab being Amaj7 to C#min and Trains being C to Em. they both also throw a lydian chord in there, Horseshoe Crab with an Abmin and Trains with a D. The rhythm of the guitar riffs are similar, I'll give you that, but the chords are so common and mostly diatonic. Plenty of artists have used similar chord progressions. With that logic, you can argue Snuff by Slipknot was a rip off of Trains. I like the production of both songs, both are different. I don't see why you think Trains' production quality is so superior.
I was already planning on going to Lollapalooza this summer and today I randomly came across slothrust only to find out that they are gonna be there and I can't wait to see their set. You guys have such a cool sound.
hey i just want to tell you that i adore this song so much and i really want you guys to make more music like it but if you don't i respect that choice too. i just think this is such a fantastic song. thanks for reading this if you do.
"I dont have anything in common with myself." - either. Leahs so relatable, talented & super gorgous to top. This band seriously kicks ass, there so solid. Brilliant musicians all 3 of them. I definatley need to ketch a show. Hope these guys stick together, cause this is true magic. And Feels Your Pain is a flawless masterpiece!
Serendipitous that I should find this now.... Just listened to Sant & Johnny - Sleep Walk and wondered what a doom metal version of that would sound like.... which lead me to a cover by these fine people.... I wasn't sure what to think... dug a bit deeper.... the feeling, the chord changes, the melancholy, the cryptic meaning that feels like only I understand... Not since the days back in the 90's when I discovered Liz Phair have I felt so much.... I can't wait to hear more... You made this old codger crack out his guitar!
I always thought this song was about feeling inadequate and adult relationships, and I identified with that. After seeing this, I see that it's about childhood and the relationship with a parent, and my heart is broken.
102.7 WEQX just played this song as an intro to your new cover of “Pony”, which I guess comes out officially tomorrow. (9/13) Great sound. Love the voice, guitars and especially the crisp sounds of the drums. Excellent group. I look forward to hearing more in the future
Not exactly. Just maintain perspective. Sometimes romantasizing our depression can feel like all we have, especially when mental illness is an ever present part of our lives. Romantasizing our bad situations is a coping mechanism. It can be a good one or a bad one depending, in my opinion.
the manic street preachers have stole my heart now for 25 years - but it's nice to have that same innocence again before I discovered them, via this band... this band makes me feel the innocence. And that's not an easy thing to achieve...
Just saw them live in Albany, it was an amazing show! And god damn, this song hits hard emotionally. Hard to pick a favorite song but I think this one is it.
Yk slothrust is one of those bands where they're not my most listened nor at the top of my playlist but I do appreciation they're music which they're songs I can definitely relate too here or there
I literally can't stop listening to this song or this band! How did I just now find out about the awesomeness that is slothrust?! These guys are the best!
I only just discovered this band I can't stop listening. Its sooo good I ordered all their albums on vinyl they'll be here in 2 days can't wait chomping at the bit
Just read about thjs song on their Wikipedia and heard it.. cuz I'm goin through that all love loss, In a dark period, depression and existential anxiety. So far listening to 730 am on repeat for 3 hrs straight a now this is next. 😭 Thanks for making these great pieces of music ❤️❤️❤️ they are My Sanctuary, they are those Arms which I can feel around me, give me warmth and making me feel good to let it all out..
The fact that this song isn't a huge hit really shows the dire state the music industry is in. I hope the trends start going back to music that means something.
My best friend/roommate showed me this and Hiding Like a Chil[...] and I was SHOOK when I heard yall havent blown all the way up. Keep on keepin on, this is art 🧡

This song shouldn't end, it should go on and on getting louder and more intricate verse after verse.
Ah, you're looking for Tangled Hair
@@MrTomservo85tangled hair???
"When I get better i'll treat you like I used to. i'll do the things you want me to. " This resonates with my soul
I literally am not sure why I’m crying I just relate to the sound
Me too.. one of my all time favorites
The reason im so in love with their music is the way it truly is emotion. Its not trying to imitate or tell of an emotion. It simply embodies it and its wonderful. Captivating.
"When I get better!!!"....... damnnnnnn the flood of emotion
me too
Cuz it’s beautiful without trying
I learned that hunger is a symptom
Of adopting bad behavior
I bit my tongue last night
Woke up with blood on my pillow
I woke up thirsty
Words make less sense to me these days
Faces look flat and unfamiliar
Do you wanna rest forever?
Underwater, it gets better
When I get better, I'll treat you like I used to
I'll do the things you want me to
Sometimes I feel like I'm a seahorse
Sometimes I think that I'm a horseshoe crab
I don't have anything in common with myself
Except that I came from the sea like everyone else did.
It is so unfamiliar now
Everything is so unfamiliar now
I learned that hunger is a symptom
Of adopting bad behavior
I bit my tongue last night
Woke up with blood on my pillow
I woke up thirsty
Words make less sense to me these days
Faces look flat and unfamiliar
Do you wanna rest forever?
Underwater, it gets better
When I get better, I'll treat you like I used to
I'll do the things you want me to
Sometimes I feel like I'm a seahorse
Sometimes I think that I'm a horseshoe crab
I don't have anything in common with myself
Except that I came from the sea, like everyone else did
But it is so unfamiliar now
Everything is so unfamiliar now

Agreed this song is truly the one song that always makes me feel better. I have a horseshoe crab tattoo
not that anyone was asking for an update to this comment but 5 years later I've learned I likely have quiet bpd, and this album was my bpd moods album without me even knowing it. they were conforting me long before I knew what they were comforting me for 🥲
I'll be eternally greatful to the show You're The Worst for introducing this band to me.
7am
underrated group.they deserve respect and thank you You're the Worst
Damn you're right
yeah, really. this song will take you, and then harass you for the next month and then for the rest of your life.
saaaame
went to a concert to see highly suspect, walked out having discovered my new favorite band 💗💗
Blake Powell same here!
Same as well. In Destin, FL.
THAT sounds like a grand time.
That was an awesome concert. I went to go see slothtust tho, highly suspect was a nice edition.
I did too. Went for highly suspect found a new band.
I found this song randomly yesterday on Apple Music and I instantly fell in love. I love the emotion and the passion and the voice. I just adore it all. I don't know what it means and yet it truly speaks to me. This is art.
Raven Bazemore thank you for putting my thoughts into words
Seems to be about mental illness. This is an incredible band. I listened to their records on repeat for several months.
Sometimes I throw this song on when I’m going through a depressive episode just to amplify it
Amplify, acknowledge and overcome
This is one of their absolute best song
I went to see this band play in a cave with Highly Suspect and instantly fell in love with their music. Honestly they're way too underrated, they kill it live. I'll definitely be going to their shows more often.
Thank you so much for writing your music and sharing it with the world. Last time I was homeless, sleeping in my car in the winter as lost as anyone could have been, this song and sleep eater gave me so much comfort.
Your music saves people. Thank you.
Not entirely sure why a plush toy bread crumb trail made cry, but I'm here for it. Algorithm snuck up on me.
this band is fucking amazing. i am addicted!! why the hell do you only have 3 thousand subscribers??? should be 3 million!
I didn’t start discovering the few good bands that existed in the 2010’s until last year and I’m pissed that I missed the heyday. I have an obsession with being apart of things from the start. Here’s to the 2020s
Jesus Christ, that's powerful.I might be a little late, but after hearing that for the first time I had to stop what I was doing and take it all in.
The drums are so good in the final push and chorus at the end
You just fall in love with this band and it becomes part of your life. Never experienced this kind of relationship before :)
Agreed..this happened to me with The Front Bottoms as well.
I don't think I've ever been in such awe after watching a music video. I had heard the song, yes, was already in love with it, but this video is so strangely normal yet beyond anything I've ever seen. I don't know how to describe it.

I was at this show, too! Rocking out but really disappointed in the amount of people who talked through the set. They were incredible!!
Your guitar riffs hit the right spot. Flawless
fuck that guitar is brilliant ain't it

Right?
Reminds me of an old school modest mouse song, Its A Long Drive era to be more specific.
not enough ''WEEELLLLLL'' or ''UUHH'' tho lmao
It hurts just how good and full or emotion their songs are
I put off listening to this for some time, and I pick today of all days to listen.
Same.
My favorite song of the last five years. I still play it a few times a month.
It's an amazing song
I listen to this at least four times a day.
I play this shit as loud as I can. Can’t say there’s another song that turns me into as much of an ecstatic nutcase as horseshoe crab!!!
I have screamed this shit in my car so many times.
This fuckin band it's gonna be huge.
they surely deserve to! but the fckn justin biebers of this world wont allow it...how sad is that?!...
I love this band.
Wait till the eletor boys show up here!
I can't thank you enough for just putting this art into the world Slothrust. All the love to y'all
Leah, you are so beautiful!
I love Slothrust. My fav band.
Thank you for this great song!!!
lol ive seen u on every video. so loyal.
Love the distillers btw
Leah is a goddess!
I was already planning on going to Lollapalooza this summer and today I randomly came across slothrust only to find out that they are gonna be there and I can't wait to see their set. You guys have such a cool sound.
Amazing that i still can find bands that like Slothrust makes me feel incredible in so many ways. Much love for this amazing band

Well they still got it. But then of course they do! Can't wait for the new album. UK here.
Love these guys...they should be huge...
saw them last night in LA they opened for highly suspect. great band!

this song is so beautiful and sjhdfgks i teared up, the passion and the sound just hskjd

Great sound. Love the voice, guitars and especially the crisp sounds of the drums. Excellent group. I look forward to hearing more in the future
I found you guys a few weeks ago and lemme just say I am hooked I love this song 😭
This is what depression feels like
yes.
Absolutely right! I guess thats why many of us, including my own bipolar ass love it so much. Feels like home.
yes indeed
I think it's about dissociation.
@@ganondorfchampin either way I can identify with both so, cheers to that
I just feel such a strong feeling of nostalgia for past loves when I hear this
Awesome song I will be seeing you for the first time LIVE later this year at AFTERSHOCK 2018!!!!!!!
Sometimes i wonder if its bad to romantasize my depression with music
Not exactly. Just maintain perspective.
Sometimes romantasizing our depression can feel like all we have, especially when mental illness is an ever present part of our lives. Romantasizing our bad situations is a coping mechanism. It can be a good one or a bad one depending, in my opinion.
I'm in love with this band
Awesome song and video!
I love those shark effects! :D
There's nothing I want more in this world than to rest forever Leah.

My best friend/roommate showed me this and Hiding Like a Chil[...] and I was SHOOK when I heard yall havent blown all the way up. Keep on keepin on, this is art 🧡
Highly Suspect & Slothrust my two fav bands. They diserve everything.
Edmar Romario same! Just saw HS last week in Baltimore btw 🤘
Have you seen them together?
I caught them together. Twice. Epic-shit!
They’re touring together now!
the more clean time i have the more i feel like this song
wow what a huge sound
New Album is Coming ? OH YEAH !!!!!!!!
JUST found out about this band...... Oh my stars I've been missing out!!!!
Can't believe I'm only just now discovering this band. This is a fucking masterpiece.
Oh man. I’m a little jealous you get to experience them for the first time, but also glad you’ve found them!
what a wonderful transition from "of course you do."
This song is amazing! Plz make more song like this one, it has something like a deep grunge feeling
so frickin good. thank you three for making amazing music i can feel to, for real.
i'm so sad but so grateful.
I can cry to this, lol. Not much ever makes me cry
I can’t get over how a amazing you all are!!! I’m obsessed!
