Yeah, man. I’m sorry to hear this too.

"and all this talk of rapture;
look around at the promise now,
here and now"

makes me emotional

yeah i honestly don't know how this thing doesn't hit you in the gut immediately. i don't say that as a criticism, i just genuinely don't get it.

Is River Cross the ultimate Gigaton song?

sorry for your loss, stip. hopefully new pj music will help comfort you.

Sorry for your loss, Stip.

Fuuuuuck whats to say about this one? Its just...special. Im not even interested on dissecting the music or lyrics...it just hit me with a lot of different emotions all at once.

Sad and hopefull at the same time, incredible.

Still, the lyrics are so fucking good.
Matt, for christ sake again...the pump organ is beautiful.

Ed vocals, so ragged , tired and full of emotion.

love this
