This song is named after "The Butcher of Bosnia". Ratko Mladic was a Bosnian Serb general of the VRS who spearheaded horrifying genocide during the Yugoslav wars. This includes the mass execution of 8300 civilians in the Srebrenica massacre.
If you can, with whatever money you have, try to see them perform this live, in person.
Waiting for them in Mexico !
Where in Mexico?
Absolutely true. I have seen them play this live twice now. There are a couple of good board recordings of it on btree also.
It's an ethereal experience
Coachella 2012 weekend 2!
ONE OF BEST PIECES OF MUSIC IN MODERN HISTORY
My headphones never go loud enough for this song
+Sena Bryer best thing to be said about this song : D
That's how you get tinnitus.
pair of cowards
I see you.
Sena Bryer Same. Nor does my car.
You can NEVER put this on a full volume enough. I just want this track to forever violate my eardrums.
THIS ISN'T A BAND, THIS IS A FORCE OF NATURE
with a little help of N Tesla
They're so incredible live, too.
Too bad they're leftists who's envisioned world is leading to the hellscapes of their songs
you may find that the overwhelming majority of artists are leftist
The capitalist system is leading to the hellscapes of their songs.
Unpopular opinion: the drone at the beginning is just as good as the arabic riff in the middle. those plucking sounds are menacing, creates such an uneasy, yet perfect atmosphere.
Not unpopular at all dude! Check out Appendix Out - Ritual Ingestion Of A Yellow Rhizome...similar sorta vibe but for the whole track...
@Benjamin T thanks for this. I've always been aware of the influence but didn't know where to start.
For some reason, they remind me of the sound of ricocheting bullets.
I prefer 10 hours of that drone over the riff. Btw what is the instrument they are plucking live, not that violin but the one on the floor.
Every part of this song is important to the piece as a whole, the quieter parts are just as masterful as the explosion of guitars and drums.
This point where you think "Holy Shit, this can't get any better", and you're only halfway thru...
"With his arms out stretched, with his arms out stretched. With his arms out stretched?" "Okay? Can you get him? Can you see him? Shoot."
Pretty pretty nine
Dronestriking?
I always figured "shoot" was like they were trying to establish visuals on someone (idk maybe in a hostage situation or something) and then couldn't find him. Never considered it could be an order to shoot someone.
@@andyz9793 I think you're right. A line of dialogue is missing in the original comment : after the double question, you can here someone answer "No". So "shoot" is more likely to be an exclamation like "damn" than an order.
@@dahoodsharmoud1676 I so, so wish we knew what htis sample was from. It could be anything
I read the comments before listening and I'm glad that I did cause I stopped the song and I'm waiting to get home to my sound system and enjoy what I imagine to be a great experience. I'll update with how I felt
UPDATE 3 MONTHS LATER: I have transcended all there is. I can smell sounds and I can count in log base 12. I exist in all points in time simultaneously, so basically I am writing the update at the same time I am writing the original comment.
Great workout track
Yes.
brilliant
lmao dude became a god
absolute fucking chills
The words to describe these musicians, their work, and the uneasy comfort they bring to the pit of my stomach are non existent. There's really no need for explanation or critic when you can finally feel what you are hearing.
Seen them live 3 times.. they're incredible! This music goes straight through your heart or you don't understand
17:52 is one of the greatest finishes to a track I have ever heard
Absolutely. It's just simply epic in every sense of the word.
This song was made on the day he was arrested, hence the name (at least, so I was told). Hours ago he was sentence to life, for war crimes comited in Bosnian war. Not that I needed particular excuse, but today this is blasting from my speakers turned to 11.
What a horrible, horrible, smug man. And he's still alive, the complete psychopath

THE BEST GY!BE SONG TO EVER EXIST. IM LITERALLY LOSING MY MIND LISTENING TO THIS RIGHT NOW AND I'VE HEARD FOR YEARS NOW!!!!
a wall of sound washed me out in their live performance Athens 24.04.18, what a blast!!!!!!!!! incredible band!
There is post rock....then there is godspeed you black emporer...for me they are so pure and spiritual and I do believe god is listening to them
I SAW GODSPEED PLAY THIS IN PHILLY LAST MONTH WHILE PEAKING ON 2 TABS AND IT WAS LIKE AN ATOMIC BOMB GOING OFF
incredible. I'm happy for you.
Bro you're lucky as fuck, what I wouldn't give to have that experience
ASTONISHING

The song is called Mladic so its obviously "inspired" from the serbian genocide of the bosnians in sarajevo srebrenica etc
This take on merging what is probably derived from psychedelic sound and the theme of war is so out of this world and cinematic, even after the 50th or so listen.
Well, Putin just invaded Ukraine.. considering this song is named after another, angry, warmongering Slavic person, I feel this song is appropriate now, more than ever.
Literally listening this in Donetsk as another shell has detonated near my house.

i really think this might be one of the best pieces of music ever made
This is how it feels marching through the streets of Baghdad, past midday, when the sun is at its peak spilling gluey inferno in your skull while puffing the dense and harsh dust of years of wars and conflicts breathing through dry cracks of the ground you step in rapturous vertigo till you collapse in post-orgasmic delirium disorder. I love this song so much... dammit.
+illmatc Yes but is the song about Ratko Mladić(c), so its more like a war hornes...
Dude, we have exactly the same imagination concerning this song. Except for the collapse. But yes it's a sad story. And violent.
The only question that haungths me is how much more cut dicks I could have shot... ten, hundred?
I WISH I HAD LOUD ENOUGH HEADPHONES THAT WOULD MAKE ME FEEL EVERY CHORD OF THIS SONG TRAVEL THROUGH MY ENTIRE NERVOUS SYSTEM
Have had the honor of experiencing GY!BE live, together with my old man we took a flight overseas from Holland to England just to see them. It was a journey i will never forget.
Was this at the 02 academy? I feel like we must have gone to the same gig!
@@bibblytib it was actually in some university campus building in Norwich! One of the smaller gigs I think, was really amazing.
proper father-son time right there
@@ptolemist Most definitely 👍 cheers.
My favorite part is from 08:11 to 12:40 very intense, the bass is so damn epic. One of my favoritest GY!BE songs.
Sometimes I try to find a better fulfilling and satisfying Post-Rock Song than this one, and I just can't.
It is too damn fucking Good.
so gay
@@nicolasbouchard454 Gay? Nice.
Sleep, the dead flag blues ??
@@nicolasbouchard454 wow t gay
Cos it isn't really post rock
second most favourite gy!be song next to moya, just listening to that build up and amazing guitar sequence makes it feel like going through intense war in the battlefield
Bosnia??..
Kaden Clancy Best comment! Moya is the best and this is the second.
People are still commenting about removal of kebab. But better not listen this band. As a Turk born in Balkans i love both Bosnia and Serbia. All Balkans we enjoy the same we listen the same, we dance and laugh the same. Better not fight eachothers. Balkans are our homeland.
Holy
Saw them perform this in Dallas. The sound was goddamn enormous, immense. What a wonderful group of people, to have done this.
Thank you 28 Days Later, for introducing me to an incredible band.
same
whaaat I didn't even know they were in it, wow
Yeah, their song 'East Hastings' is played at the beginning of the movie.
please listen to Nervous-Sad-Poor and/or The Dead Flag Blues
Lonus Bjonus DEAD FLAG BLUES
tfw hear the song for the first time.
I wish I could rehear this song for the first time
🙌
Just got back from their Athens show. The live version of Mladic is the greatest thing I've ever experienced. Words cannot describe...Do yourself a favor and go see them perform this live.
THIS IS NOT A BAND, THIS A NEW INTIFADA.
Truly, Truly special... noise of the highest quality 😎💚👍
I just keep listening to this over and over...
Walking through the old streets of Lahore with this song playing through your headphones is an experience.
Okay I'm gonna pay a visit to androon now just to experience it myself.
Guess I need to try this someday
Hands down best album since Lift Yr Skinny Fists. Well done, lads and lasses, looking forward to seeing y'all in Portland, been listening since 1999
13:31 to 14:21... aural bliss...
Ratko Mladić (Serbian Cyrillic: Ратко Младић, pronounced [râtko mlǎːdit͡ɕ]; born 12 March 1943) is a Bosnian Serb convicted war criminal and former warlord who led the Army of Republika Srpska (VRS) as a general during the Yugoslav Wars.[1][2][3] He was later found guilty of committing war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide by the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY).
Peter Derouen Mladic fought for his country and his fellow countrymen. Good speed Mladić!
Mladic is a hero and one of the rare humane actors of that war, don't let western propaganda fool you.
@@91iamlegend Systematic genocide against Bosniaks begs to differ
@@RoteAnarchie When you understand what Systematic, Genocide and Bosniaks actually mean, then perhaps we can have this conversation.

Holy crap, you were really, really lucky to have managed to randomly pick up one of the greatest albums by one of the greatest bands ever.
One of the few songs you can come back to and it gives you the same thrill every single time.

Man2-With his arms outstretched? okay

Man2-No.

Where does this audio come from?
This song gave me tinnitus but it was fucking worth it
It is physically imposible to play this song "too loud".
I listen to this everyday when I get back from work, smoking a cigarette.
this band makes love to me.
This song pumps me up like hell
This is basically ambient, space rock, post rock and reggaeton all chunked together.
Dope
Album (GOODSPEED YOU! BLACK EMPEROR Allelujah! Don't bend! Ascend!) in my collection, vid in my favs.
Thanks.
No one gives a fuck
@@ekelalfred219 damn
Saw them live, and i wouldn't say which one is better, both are epic
I saw them at The Cannery Ballroom in Nashville, TN. They started their set with about 15 minutes of droning noises (some of the noises were pre-recorded and started before anyone was even on the stage), which eventually went into Mladic.
They also played Moya, their newest song (which has been labeled "Behemoth" on the interwebs), another seemingly endless array of droning noises (which I thought was amazing), and ended the set with Gathering Storm. The show was absolutely incredible and LOUD!
CRIkEY what a piece of Music . Thankyou Godspeeds ❤️🏴😇from the Wilverley Enclosure Phoney Witches
This is my favorite song of all time. Period.
if I were ever the villain in a series, this would be my theme music.
Music is not dead

16:09 That sound gives me the chills
Yupe
This is simply the best that modal music can get!
Can't believe I hadn't heard this sooner!

Tunes for the end of days
Might be the hardest song ever
listening from the back of an ancient Toyota Tacoma pickup as me and my fellow tribe tear through the deserts of a dead America. The year is 2047.
alright mad max
I bought an older Toyota to prepare for the impending collapse. I don't know if well make it to 2047 at this rate. But ill be listening to this while were still kicking
This is the soundtrack to drive through the balkans.. but more precisely i would say Albania, and even more so, Kosovo.
trust me, it's awesome, already done it.
+AnRTPgA This is the soundtrack for living in the Balkans.
+AnRTPgA
Me: Mom! I'm going to Kosovo
Mom: What's in Kosovo?
Me: I'm gonna listen to this kickass post-rock band there on my stereo. It's gonna be great XD
+AnRTPgA Just don't tell anyone that the song's name is "Mladic" while you're there...
Doom III of House Zappo SAYING MLADIĆ IN THE BALKANS 2016 [GONE WRONG] [GONE SEXUAL] [GONE GENOCIDAL]
wtf is this bs, I'm neither American NOR from a NATO country, In fact, I'm ethnically Albanian living in central europe.
Also, of course, Americans will be Americans, acting imperialist everywhere they can.
But, I'll tell ya something: I'm a communist anarchist.
BUT: I'll take being colonised by the US 100x times over being genocidally raped and murdered by the Serbian Army.
Call me an imperialist, but I prefer my family non-raped.
easily their best song
I don't even know what to say... Just hits you like a tidal wave
Yesterday, Mladic was finally convicted of organizing the Bosnian Muslim genocide, a sincere apology to our friends in Bosnia for supporting the Serbs during this period. This does not mean that the bombing of Serb civilians is not a crime against humanity and should have been condemned as well. peace in the whole world. dimi from Athens.
I really didn't think Godspeed You! Black Emperor could possibly get any better. I was so wrong!
"Wth his arms outstretched, with his arms outstretched...do you see him, can you get him...?"
Best 20 minutes ever.
It's exciting. It's an adventure to pick something up based purely off the art, not knowing quite what you're gonna hear when you spin it. To have that adventure with a band like Godspeed... I did, with F# A# Infinity, and will never regret the moment I found noise so beautiful that I'd never even tried to imagine it.
Amazing band. They deserved the Polaris for sure and it's about time it went to a group like this one.
officially? in stores October 15. unofficially? if you catch godspeed in the next 7 days, you can get it at the show. this is from their new album. :) :)
I totally agree, they describe more things than before, but without being boring, I like their new style .Anyway, this is so good to hear them again ! I don't know if you guys knows about GRAILS, they are a great similar band; I suggest you to hear their song "soft temple" or "I led three lives" or anything else, you may love them if you like this song :)
Eargasm. They would be brilliant in concert, wow.
opening first minute or two would be great in the new Dune movie..
Just announced earlier this week as guest curators for the Sled Island festival in Calgary. Will be the first time Godspeed has ever performed in Alberta.
Arabic notes + slow tempo = Deep Stoner Rock ! epic song !
Adyman182 It's got what some people would call a "Middle-Eastern" vibe going on. Especially the riff at 8:50.
Adyman182 well if you say Middle East you are basically talking about Arabic Zone ! and if you search for some arabic scales it will sound just as deep and mysterious !
Post-rock
It's called the Phrygian dominant scale. It's used in a lot of Arabic, Balkan, Jewish, and gypsy music.
The hole musical scale is arabic, you love it or not =))
could listen to this all day
this song be so damn mladic
the drone is strong in this one
Quite possible the greatest song I've ever heard
I remember listening to the 17:52 part for the first time and bursting into tears
That fucking build up.
I regret that i discovered this band this late...
This is dark horsing its way to being my favourite godspeed track.
THIS SHIT SLAPS
I have been waiting for this for years!
What begins as a ringing becomes a powerful hum, that becomes the heart of the sound, that sits in the middle of al the chaos creating beautiful, organized chaos... wild... free
the title means "young man" in serbian,but it could also be referring to Ratko Mladic, a serbian general who ordered the killing of Bosniaks.
almost certainly a reference to the latter
Allegedly, it was either composed or released the day Ratko Mladic was arrested.
@@nottherealpaulsmith There's bootlegs of Godspeed performing an earlier version of the track pre-hiatus in like 2003 so that can't be true
@@andyz9793 Yes, but it was called "Albanian" back then. The "Mladic" name only came with the album.
@@nottherealpaulsmith well yeah we are not disagreeing there. they were putting this to tape in 2011 when mladic was finally imprisoned/on trial so thats definitely where the name comes from. i just meant it wasnt composed or released when he was arrested, just named
Thanks God for this music! I'm so glad to be alive and have the opportunity to hear this song
All shall be OK in the end
saw them play this on tuesday and it was amazing
nice username lmao
This song is beyond incredible, the way it captures the middle eastern feeling and turns it into this huge fucking monster of a song, i literally can't get enough of this. If i ever journey to the desert, this album will be coming with me.
