I loved this song before but for some reason after finding out its only two people making all that sound I'm madly in love with this band.
Welcome to the club!!
Same, I always thought it was like 5 people. This man makes most other guitarists look boring. His mastery of looper pedals + like every amazing guitar technique imaginable packed in one song.
See them live if poss and be close enough to see his boards. Fogarty also loops.
It’s crazy how such a gentle song is such a pain the ass to play live. It’s an incredible performance.
This was my ultimate longboarding song in 2009 😢 memoriessss
Same! Crusing down Clearwater beach thinking it would last forever.
@@Akindal89same, but in Cardiff. Saw them mostly at the Music Box in San Diego. It still stands up! 👣
Saw them live in KC a couple years ago - it was amazing to see and hear the process in person.
I will need this played at my funeral.
what a piece of art
What a powerful statement to art and dedication/grit.
Whom ever you are, bless you for showing hope.
It’s so beautiful you mention that because that is exactly how I feel about this song and what it means to me ❤
Traveling through the dark I found a deer
dead on the edge of the Wilson River road.
It is usually best to roll them into the canyon:
that road is narrow; to swerve might make more dead.
By glow of the tail-light I stumbled back of the car
and stood by the heap, a doe, a recent killing;
she had stiffened already, almost cold.
I dragged her off; she was large in the belly.
My fingers touching her side brought me the reason-
her side was warm; her fawn lay there waiting,
alive, still, never to be born.
Beside that mountain road I hesitated.
The car aimed ahead its lowered parking lights;
under the hood purred the steady engine.
I stood in the glare of the warm exhaust turning red;
around our group I could hear the wilderness listen.
I thought hard for us all-my only swerving-,
then pushed her over the edge into the river.
-William E. Stafford
Gorgeous poem.
you the real MVP. eerie poem yet hopeful song
So beautiful
😢

Found them on Pandora. Glad I did. Been listening to this song for a while. Decided to check out the band. Pretty cool to see it live. :-)
I have been absolutely obsessed with this song...
wow what a guitarist holy shit
+Josh Mehrtens He actually is not a fan of playing the guitar beleive it or not he considers himself a bass player. On their newest album he actually does not play any guitar, only fretless and six string bass. I always thought it was amazing how he pushes the limits of the bass and what it can do
+Josh Mehrtens who knew?,, I was listening to Pandera, and I thought let me check this. Little did I know I would witness a Guitarical Ninja!
+Daniel Bowe Bassist ninja*
@Trevor Browning I know this is a year old, but have you heard of Armistead Burwell Smith? He writes music on the bass guitar too, is similar to his style, at least in the way of playing chords and junk on bass guitar.
Thanks for helping me discover Pinback :)
Of course it's not weird to have a favorite poet. Love Stafford and he would love this song
I love this band so much , makes me feel so free and happy !
Saw these guys live, it was great. If you get a chance, go find them.
Perry Cox on guitar/bass :D Nice instrumental!
It's about having to hurt someone innocent to save yourself. An old lover, friend, even a stranger. Afterwards you give yourself a moment to reflect, hard, about what you were forced to do to survive -- your only moment of swerving. Then it's back onto the cold night road.
Thanks Shaquille Oatmeal
In the album's context I feel like it has something to do with your own departure or even the departure of someone you love. The latter is heavily implied up until you learn that the whole album was dedicated in the memory of the bassist's mother.
It's extremely curious because the first few times I listened to ETE's self-titled it gave off that impression of sort of, losing someone or leaving your old life behind. And there's no lyrics at all, just the musical sensation. The fact that the music alone was able to convey exactly what the musicians were feeling at the time, is mind blowing to me.
El Ten Eleven - amazing musicians maxing looping technology! Booked this bandfor The Jumping Turtle (San Marcos, CA) in 2005 and a fan for life!
God damn the double hammer-ons are sick!
LOVE THIS BAND
I first saw him do duran duran bass. My friend just sent me this. It all circles back. His robot is on point! If you have watched the duran duran you get it
Wow, these guys are awesome
Such a great song!
Amazing song 😇
Too awesome!
So great
Just bought this song. :-)

my only swerving is off the chain

Muito bom.
👏
I don't know if there is a god, but It doesn't matter. The things that humans feel, create, and share is meaningful enough to justify our existence.
Dr Cox !!!
i dig his shoes what are they?
I'm sure if you go to Walmart or Target you can find some just like those. lol
They look like sneakers
No wonder I could not find a guitar tutorial for this
learning it now, pretty sure its in EABG#BD# if ur super good you can use the bottom three strings for the bass parts and top three for the guitar. the use of an open tuning makes it easier than it seems, but still hard as hell and you need to be good at two hand tapping and it relies a lot on a good body clock
@@okumay haha im gonna pass on learning this, i learned a part from sorry for your irony but that was cus there was a tutorial from kristian dunn
cool
Their style reminds me of c418 but with guitar. Or should I say it the other way around ?
lilbit of coordination
Dammit! my hands are too small to play the bass riff!
Gotta learn to stretch them muscles. I have small hands and I can chord the bass like this. Play through the pain and you get used to it.
jaaaa pierdole macie czelnosc. zaplacita odszkodowanie za moje zdrowie za tego mańkuta
this band is successful because they don't have to deal with the bassist's shit
Alright bout to use my bankai like ichigo kurasakai nobody can stop me....,,,,BANKAI
Michael Angelo Batio goes Indie
And the guitar EADG#Bd#
He looks like Dr Cox from scrubs.
Man, drummer just gets to chill, only playing one instrument.
How the hell is looping a trick?
El Ten Eleven has been a huge influence in our music writing. If you would take a moment to click on our username and listen to our music, you likely won't be disappointed.
Greyflood Band I listened, was delighted, and subscribed to your channel. Thanks!
This song would be great with lyrics. It already is, but it would be great if they added some.
Fretting one neck with one hand and tapping the other with the other hand wtf
Great trick. Crap song.
Crap take
кто делает пииу я нихуя не понял
lyrics would ruin this song completely
this is fucking music tech at a fucking godly level omg
I listen to this song when I'm walking sometimes. It makes me feel like the lead character in an epic indie movie/clever TV show.
dr. cox on guitar/bass
Jon Pritchard shittt
LOST CHATROULETTE CONNECTION. You look like Johnny Depp (eh, a little) I look like the Linus tech guy (sort of). We started listening to this song together...idk what happened :( Mom = successfully got mental help, resolved issues, dad= computer genius (hardware side), evolve language = evolve our species, relative moralism, SONDER!!! Buddy....ugh, ruined my night losin ya :( Find me man. Let's yell about the Universe together again please
hope you guys find each other 🫶🏻
After all these years I still jamming to this , Thanks NPR
This just still blows my mind I have it on my Playlist but watching both just rock so hard, gives me goose bumps... 2021 crew leggo
Duuuude! I've been listening to this song for forever and I thought it was like an electronic music producer or something. I had no idea it was dudes with real, legit talent. Oh my god I love this so much more now.
Same here! Amazing multitasking skills
Electronic music producers have "real legit talent" too man
*****
True. Let me rephrase. Skills on actual instruments. Let's be honest, it's easier to get good at producing electronic music than it is to get good at guitar, drums, etc. I do both, so I feel like I have a just little room to talk. I still have major respect for electronic producers, but there's something about seeing people playing their actual instruments that producers just can't match. At least in my opinion.
Not like this...
FelixRosas10 they play actual instruments they are real musicians. they are not some phony skrillex wannabees. anyone can use a computer to make music but it takes a lot more to play real music
Nice. Love the old school Carvin as well. They made some criminally underrated/overlooked guitars for ridiculously low prices back in the day. Not sure why they never caught on.
I've seen a lot of El Ten Eleven's videos on here, but this one is by far the best looking. Really fantastic lighting and camera work. And these guys are just the freaking greatest.
Not weird having a favourite poet🧐
This is the best instrumental i have heard!
Thank you to my buddy John Edwards for bringing this band to my attention. Amazing instrumentals, perfect for the wandering mind.
the politician?
The medium?
Holy shit these guys are good.

"We're not worthy!" "We're not worthy!"...(as my hands move up and down like in Wayne's World)
God damn....
the only problem with looping is that if you start to get annoyed with just one layer it kind of ruins the entire song :/
This is fucking sweet
Really glad I clicked on this, thanks UA-cam. Made me think of the band Drums and Tuba, check out Drums and Tuba - brain liaters.
did not know this was a 2 man band, insane skills from both of them. respect!
Extremely talented guys. Thankful for this band.
It’s not weird to have a favorite poet. It’s actually really cool
No, it’s not.
@@MyGuy42069 you’re boring
Huge props to the audio engineer, the mix is brilliant.
Ugh. This band is seriously brilliant and amazing.
More technically talented than pretty much anyone I've ever seen in alternative rock.
We were just taken to church.
Only 200k views?????????
the guitarist looks like John McGinley
Most evident when he concludes.
Dr. Cox :')
GENIUSES
fucking amazing
If these guys aren't millionaires then that's depressing. :(
That bass tone. I love it.
The music is it's own lyrics.
It is weird to have a favorite Poet no sir no it is not you no longer have to hide your face in shame you have my approbation I laud your steadfast courage for admitting this clandestine information
Incredible. I love that through today's mass of unoriginal and auto tuned(because of lack of talent) music that there are musicians like this out there who are truly artists.
Anybody who disliked this song is jealous of their awesomeness. Js lol
I was waiting for them to show the other guitarist...
This isn't off their newest album "Transitions" by the way
So clean! Chill and motivating. : ) keep it up guys!
I found them out by listening to roots or orchis
Shameless plug.
Since when is it weird to enjoy poetry?
The Diez Once "My only Musica"
i watched your video you guys are sick
Gets me in a good mood. I like that...
Beautiful work guys!
