Imagine the divinity one can obtain listening to Garrett while watching Rick and Morty

and it drives me absolutely wild to think that there are people out there with the audacity to think that PTSD is not a thing.

I met him twice at shows. He stood off to the side of the stadium they played at, barefoot on the turf, and he hugged everyone who came up to him right away. He stood there for an hour and we sat by him and talked and I can say he is exactly how he seems on camera and on stage. Truly full of God and truly believes that there is good in every person.

i could listen to Garrett talk all day. he truly has inspiring and relatable things to say. i talked to him with a friend after a show in salt lake city and hes honestly one of the nicest, down to earth dudes I've ever had the pleasure of talking to. cant wait for the record.

I just found out about silent planet 2 days ago and am completely hooked. All of his lyrics are amazing. Jeriel i can't think you enough for your sacrifices. Im just sorry you were put in that position so that some elite could put another dollar in his pocket.

My daughters appreciate you, & now I got a chance to meet you through your videos & your messages, & I understand why they do! Thank you for your poetry & your humanity! Hugs!

Just found this band. I was in for 12yrs and 3 deployments. The music, and emotion can bring me to tears in a way that helps me positively release all this anger and frustration without bottling it up inside and exploding.

Thank You Jeriel and Thank You to Slient Planet for another song to hold us down and remind us that some others understand PTSD and what some of us go through. I’ve been Active Duty for 12 and though I’ve never been in a gunfight, I have had weapons pointed towards me with intent to kill. Seriously this song is Amazing. Blessings to All!

lyrically i knew this song was deep but this takes everything i thought to a whole new level. this band speaks about so much in every single song its unbelievable

wow... this is why I love this band. there's songs with meaning, and then there's songs that's paint a huge picture and tell a compelling story better than most films can. kudos sp, this one is something special.

One the best perspectives I've seen or heard

honestly Garrett always has an amazing message and I thank him for that I mean I got yo talk to him in person and he us one of the nicest and interesting guy's I've ever meet I cannot wait till the new album comes out

garrett is so intriguing i love to listen to this

Garrett reaffirms my faith in humanity

This is a very relevant topic, Garrett. And not only for the USA, but for the entire imperialist world.

I'm grinning like an idiot at how beautiful Garrett has designed this whole album, the concepts in it, the imagery, the various characters, everything. I need to meet Garrett and learn how to be a better lyricist.

So on point. Well said; respect

Garrett for President.

That, my friends, is a beautiful soul.

i literally wish i could be garrett... such an amazing guy from what i see and hear

This guy's my role model, he has such an open mind about everything.

Yeah, best band of all time.

So much care coming,from this guy. I remember meeting him at a phinehashas concert. I saw a shirt at there table that read something like "save us from our hate, greed etc." and in the,middle it said "homosexuality" so I approached him and just told him that it was a very bold concept to,throw something that today is such a difficult controversial subject in there like that. He proceeded to hug me lol and say thanks and gave me his views on it. just a really nice guy with a big heart.

His intelligence is inspiring

i really want to have a chat with this man

That's interesting that he said the song was originally 2:30. At that break, I'd thought it could end there, but I has so much power through the rest of the song.

Honestly, I don't think anything I can ever go through after this will be as emotionally difficult, as well as, emotionally freeing. I felt a burden of feeling like a "Murderer" for so long and just tried to hold myself accountable without an outlet or seeking guidance that for a period, i just became numb. Garrett has helped me, and I'm sure this goes for many other, feel again. Even if it was pain; sorrow; guilt; loss; or the attempt to accept what I did, I felt something. Furthermore, I'm glad to say that I'm now a Registered Nurse so that instead of being the one that harms someone and takes away, I can do everything in my power to make someone better. I have not forgotten my past, but I have found a way to forgive myself. Peace and blessings, dear brothers and sisters.

My only question would be that when garret says he's grateful for those who sign up to defend but not harm. As a Christian, he more than any, should know that Christ teaches of loving your enemy and to not resist an evil person even if it means giving your life. Taking one life to "save" another isn't really fitting that message. I'd love to see what he has to say about that.
