I just can't get enough of this tune of late. It's so fucking fantastically great. That build around the 15 minute mark is one of those rare musical moments that makes my skin tingle. FUCK THEY;RE GOOD YO!

I love the last bits of this song more. The 'where are you going?' vocal loop is just so sad. And into that ambient bit... 'tape loop manufactured during downpour' or what ever. Its beautiful BEAUTIFUL LIKE SCARLETT JOHANNSON but like a sad Scarlett Johannson about who has just realised the futility of living.

Its actually scary looking back, seriously. There was a point a year or two ago where I WORSHIPPED this band. I remember thinking that if I had faith in anything it was in Godspeed. Its quite worrying looking back :s

that "where are you going" bit is one of my favorite pieces of music, ever. reminds me of the countryside south of where i used to live, with all these abandoned train lines and ghost towns in the middle of the mountains. great track.

i'd recommend chronological order: F#A#infinity slow riot EP lift your skinny fists.... the last album isn't that great

Lift your skinny fists is amazing.
The first disc is incredible.

Yanqui UXO just doesn't have 'it'. Apart from the last track, that's pretty trippy

I like moya from the slow riot ep a lot, i think it's one of their best. I really like all their stuff, They're parts on skinny fists which surpass f#A#infinity but overall I thought the first was better. I never got around to buying yanquo.

Yes, GY!BE are best in chronological order. Slow riot EP is my favourite. And yes, Yanqui UXO was a bit wank if you ask me.

I only have the early version of of f#a#infinity which is apparently partially the same as the other version, but all the track names are different and there are six of them so I dunno if it's the same or not.

i made a mix tape once: side one: joy division - new dawn fades, slint - washer, the cure - 100 years, for carnation - emp mans blues
side two: mogwai - tracy, mogwai - summer, gybe - east hastings
now that was a great mix tape

great music : )
DJ Xammax: download the full album... the division of it into three "tracks" doesn't make much sense (except that each track is a side of the LP, or so i've been told) since each of the three tracks contains already several ones...

I'm not saying anything about GYBE! but I can't listen to them anymorre. I get irrrritable and I starrt to hold my brreath :S and can't catch it. It's similarr to when someone is annoying you but you can't speak out because they arre yourr boss orr something. It's totally stupid.

No they haven't split...
However, Roger left the group to focus on Fly Pan Am. There were also rumors about Norsola and Dave leaving, but those might be crazy rumors.
In the interview where Roger said he was leaving, he also said that some of the remaining members really wanted to continue. And, if they needed, I don't think they would have trouble recruiting people for an album. Or maybe they will just have less people and experiment with that.
Also, Ian from Constellation records REALLY REALLY wants the band to record Albanian at some point. So that's a good sign.
Plus I think Gamelan and Albanian are two of the best pieces they've ever done.
(If it isn't too obvious, I think that Constellation records is putting out the most passionate, wonderful music on the face of the planet right now. :) And I don't expect them to stop any time soon.)
At the same time... who really knows what gy!be's plans are. They've already been on "hiatus" for over a year... :(
