here's a copy of my comment i wrote and posted before i read this: I live in Massachusetts and here we get fog. mist. But in Massachusetts, by default some are just fuckin fearless. I live up in the hilly western mass. and sometimes at like 6 in the morning you just find yourself in the middle of a forest, miles from any proper human life, walking through gray mist and darkness with only the sound of stepping over wet leaves and the repetitive psychotic lullaby of crickets to listen to. But I've grown up in the hills. And it's not frightening. Now, every once in a while you'll pass into some clearing, turning out to be on of those river-like rows of Transmission Towers, the same things in these videos. Rusty or cracked, but still out in the middle of nowhere carrying signal. Like a river. Sometimes you'll follow them up-hill for a few miles, or maybe down. Just wandering through forest and covering terrain on-foot is a serious part of New England culture. I pity those who don't know what it's like.

It says the stems were used, meaning each element of the song (vocals, guitar, drums etc) are separated. I'd guess that the drums are actually unchanged, which is why they sound so good - they're the original drums. Everything else was able to be downtuned and tweaked individually. Very nice mix indeed.

I'm a pretty friendly guy, but also the kind of musician that really feels the feeling behind certain notes, and the beginning notes of this song feels more like "I'm feelin so much sadness and anger, all pent-up and here is where enough is enough and i'm lettin it out. In these kick-ass power chords" But then the lyric is less "it didnt work out and im insanely angry" but more "could it work out? why cant it? can we try again? what's wrong? let me fix it. give me another chance"

This sounds like the start of a great story. Are you a writer? I really want to experience this.

I've just learned that this song evokes the feeling of a new beginning to many people... I'm glad to watch you being hopeful. To me, this song has always felt like a flashback in present tense, like he's living a moment that has already passed. Maybe it's just a projection of how I see the beautiful moments, I don't know.

This is the closest thing to listening to it for the first time

This is super cool. I thought this video was meant to be a gag, but it sounds great.

this song feels like a mental breakdown (i love it)

sound even more melancholic than the og

Back when this song downtuned was a big thing, i didnt quite get the hype cuz it sounded odd to me actually playing it on guitar. But now that im listening to it, it sounds much darker & even a bit ahead of its time. Mad cool

so goooood

This is the key I sing in. So this sounds about right to me.

Excellent

The song is good (as everlong always is) but the image rules. I love everything about how that image looks. I wish I could explain why but I dont really know. It just looks cool and it fits the way this songs sounds very well.

It’s interesting that we all find artwork with power lines impactful in someway. When I was a kid I fantasized about following them to their end to find a paradise, but I think that paradise is lost forever 🚬🙁
