God is an Astronaut - Epitaph (2018)

Cheers my Friends, Today THIS had to be my post, I found 27th April its the release of Epitaph, usually when a band releases an Epitaph it announces the end of the band. All God is an Astronaut fans hope it will not be their end cause this is toooooo good.
On March they had already released a song for the upcoming album, with the same name as the album, "Epitaph". This song starts really calm, but not monotonic it has variances which makes one focused on the song, and some of the details in between that seems like we are alone on a Carriage or a train an see the sound of everything passing by and there we stay only us and our thoughts. Suddenly it increases its strength like a turbulence of our darkest dreams and fears. Then it gets calmer again as we found our peace and accept what we are. The video is kind of dark showing, following really well the song cause most of the times photography only captures what is good on this world and never shows the pain and anguish always so present.



Already on this month they released a new video called "Komorebi", it is more of a post-progressive song but is not that what takes its mystery. Being way more calmer and less strong as Epitaph, I love every bit of the music, makes me wander in the realm of Mono and that is a really really good indication. From video's discription:‘Komorebi’ is a word from Japanese. Think of the interplay between light and leaves when sunlight shines through trees. I think the word really evokes that feeling of being in a forest while the light gently caresses our heads, if you never felt that you must, ideally as far away as possible from the day to day cosmopolitan noises. Here when the song increases its tone is not so violent as in the other song is like suddenly the wind got stronger and stronger in our hair.















I had to post this this week, it is too good to be non-shared.
See you next week cheers.
