“Godspeed You! Black Emperor” Archives

The Canadian collective responds to the ongoing conflict in Palestine with their elegiac-yet-defiant post-rock.

It seems rather fitting for the post-rock titans to announce a new album at this particular moment in time.

Oh Godspeed, how I’ve missed you so.

Nothing’s small in GYBE!‘s music.

This is true pre-millenial tension, folks.

The balance between the two extremes of madness and beauty gives Godspeed’s music its emotional impact.

This an album that speaks of freedom, but also is brave enough to declare that one must venture through darkness and madness to achieve it.
