I fear that while many folks simply do not, or care no to, possess the patience or capacity to appreciate this music - i am so so glad i found Stars of the Lid, this being the first song of theirs i had ever heard. This music is quite frankly just sublime and this piece moved me to tears. So very few things are created these days that hold as much breathtaking beauty as their sounds. And a shame to think of how many countless folk will go their whole lives never hearing. ~jgm
@@shimblypibbins the label of "pretentious" is correlational to taste ; entirely subjective. No matter what you do, how you act, what you listen to, there's always gonna be motherfuckers out there who find it pretentious.
What a fucking obnoxious comment. Imagine being so high on the smell of your own farts you question whether anyone else is pretentious enough to "understand" this mystical music. Twat.
I got the answer: AW: The titles are really specific events. Things that really only mean something to one or two people in the world. Generally the titles emerge from the moments that I'm coming up with the piece of music, with something that's happening right then, that's scribbled on a CD, or the name of the file on Protools. They really only mean something to me and Brian or the person that the song's about. They're silly, of course, but not random. The last track on the record, "December Hunting For Vegetarian Fuckface," is about this idiot I used to know that lived in Austin. Meh...
@@francesmcbride5936 is he actually your uncle? I envy you. has he been up to something regarding music? Wiltzie seems pretty active but I can't find anything about Brian, which kinda makes me sad lol
For those vegans out there this song represents the protein fueled brain . primates didn' have the luxury of modern humans at a whole foods. Ode to the carnivores.
stunningly beautiful music, but an offensive title. hunting is an unnecessary act of murder, albeit, less horrific than the nightmare of industrialized factory farming. please choose a diet of compassion rather than one of violence and selfishness.
You do realize that when you consume plants it often involves eating their offspring or the food intended for them? There isn't much compassion to be found in grinding tissue to a pulp to be digested no matter the organism.
Brock Cash excellent point brock ! I do realize this. But every calorie we consume of flesh takes 10 calories of plant matter to be created, so a plant-based diet not only saves animals, but also saves plants :D I also don't think masticating food for digestion is an act of compassion, but saving anything from unnecessary death certainly is! :P

RIP Brian. Thank you for all the amazing music, shows, and the memories.
this album is just fucking unquestionable
From about minutes 4 to 9, just gorgeous ebbing and flowing sound...like a slow, quiet victory dance.

I love ambient music and i'm glad i found this album

You'll never guess what this song sounds like from the title alone
Didn't expect a title like this, heh.
this is my favorite song
rip brian.
Music For A Near Death Experience.
Best song to play on a Vegetarians' Christmas party
Really liked your video!
Anyone know what the name of this piece is about?

considering they haven't released any material in a decade, Adam may have been talking about Brian
@@cheekofnut Nah my uncle Brian has never been a vegetarian I don't think, I could be wrong (I don't see him a lot so I don't know super well)

Too many chord changes.
+jonathan401 too much music theory

Go tell a lion to be vegan. Mammals gotta love.
You are not a lion, you nonce.

Time to embrace nature, Kyle.

Entertainment?
