Godspeed You! Black Emperor

[DirgeForNovember]

I highly recommend all of you to check them out. They're the only band that can affect me like Katatonia does. While their music is very different, the emotional impact is the same. The mood is unbelievable devastating and desperate. Well, I can't describe it properly, you have to listen to it yourself.

 

[Procella]

Yes, GYBE is OK.

 

[affinityband]

Godspeed is wicked! DONT listen to it in the dark though when your just about to fall asleep. I had the misfortune of trying to be brave and doing that. Not cool.

 

[Procella]

I'm just listening to them...

 

[Androz]

I really like GYBE, but I enjoy Explosions in the Sky even more

 

[Procella]

I prefer GYBE, though EITS are good too.

 

[FatefuL]

like it very mutch

 

[Anarkissed]

I love Godspeed They make me horny, in a morbid, apocalyptic, tension-filled kinda way. Err yes.

 

[Demilich]

if you guys like this kind of band, check out The Evpatoria Report

 

[MadTinus]

I've always been put off by their annoying stupid bandmame, but I've heard more positive things about them, so I guess I'll have to check them out..

Another great band in similar vein is Mono from Japan (not to be confused with the triphop band Mono from the UK). One Step More And You Die is a fantastic album by them, particularly the track Com(?).

 

[Anarkissed]

On another note...is it actually 'Godspeed You! Black Emperor' or 'Godspeed You Black Emperor!'?

I noticed on one of their CD's it's written as the second one. On another, it doesn't have their name on the cover but it had a sticker saying the first one.

Many of the members in Godspeed formed another band that sounds very similar called Silver Mountain Zion. Cool shit!!!
