Godspeed You! Black Emperor - We Drift Like Worried Fire (from Allelujah! Don’t Bend! Ascend!)

Godspeed You! Black Emperor (formerly punctuated Godspeed You Black Emperor! and commonly abbreviated to GYBE or GY!BE) is a Canadian post-rock band which originated from Montreal, Quebec in 1994. They were the first outside act to release their recordings through Constellation, an influential independent record label also located in Montreal. Godspeed You! Black Emperor took their name from a little known 1976 Japanese black-and-white documentary by director Mitsuo Yanagimachi, which follows the exploits of a Japanese biker gang, the Black Emperors. They are most commonly classified as post-rock, but are just as well recognized outside any established scene and take influences from a range of styles including progressive rock, post-punk, classical music, soundtrack, composition and the avant-garde. Each release usually consists of an entire piece divided into movements, mostly between 15 and 25 minutes, sometimes eponymously specified in the liner notes. After the release of their debut album in 1997, the group toured regularly from 1998 to 2002. In 2003, the band announced an indefinite hiatus in order for band members to pursue other musical interests. In the intervening period the group was occasionally rumored to have broken up, but the band finally reconvened for a tour in late 2010 and early 2011. In October 2012, the band announced the release of a new album, ’Allelujah! Don’t Bend! Ascend!.

“the island of children’s child”- múm

What lastfm and its users have to say about múm:

“múm (pronounced [muːm], “moom”) is an experimental electronic group from Iceland whose music is characterized by soft vocals, eccentric beats and colorful effects, and a variety of traditional and unconventional instruments.”- lastfm

lewi91 says, “the heaviest band of all time.”

mushroomsseason admits, “I’ve cried.”

Cat_007 notes, “band of heaven and sea.” (how true)

And my 9 year old brother comments, “that was freaky.”

Every time I listen to these guys it makes me think of a little kid running around the mountains wearing an oversized viking helmet and carrying a little battleaxe.

This description is perfect.
