These guys could make one of the greatest tracks ever and name it “Sesame Street” or somethin

Playing this after every minor inconvienence I suffer >

I heard this song while taking a shit and I started cryin

"Oh, your generous loan to me / Your crippling interest" One of best final lines of one of the best album closers of one of the best albums of all time.

A song hasn’t made me feel this way in like, ever

after all the years of leaks this song still hits me in the g spot

If this is the last we ever hear from Isaac, what a way to go out man

Ending crescendo has me strokin my shit

Best song ever. What a band you guys are. Thank you Isaac for everything, a one of a kind artist.

Thank you for the random strangers on the internet that put me onto this band. They are indeed something special and a diamond in the rough when it comes to composing music in 2022. This is the type of music that attaches us to the soul of sound. They aren't necessarily making 100% original or unique in the genre they are in but its unique in the sense of just elevating that post-indie rock sound with jazz elements & production/lyrics/composition of the whole damn album that is something to celebrate in this day in age where music can be overly-processed copy/paste pick a relatable word and make a song about it.

As soon as that saxophone line hits at the start... A deluge of tears

Possibly will go down as one of the best songs of the decade

maybe kind of unusual thing to say but this is maybe one of the best mixed pieces of music I've ever heard. It's insanely difficult to make such a dense, multi-layered section of harmony and noise to sound as balanced and clear as the ending of this song. Whoever did this deserves a beer.

This song really needed to exist.

sometimes you just know when you're listening to an album that's potentially going to be genre-defining. I felt that today.

Day 1 of this being the greatest song ever written

can’t wait to have a shit ton of nostalgia for this song (and this entire album in general) in 10 years

what genius decided to put an ad right in the middle of the song? scared the living shit out of me and broke the spell of the song, the emotional trance i was under. now the whole experience is ruined.

Possibly one of the greatest songs of all time. A beautiful way to end an amazing era. Thank you for everything Isaac. I hope you find what it is you’re seeking.

Usually it's hyperbole to say 'it's one if the best songs ever recorded' crikey I don't think it is this time. What a stunning track

i need something absolutely tragic and heart ripping to happen to me while this song is playing

issac's swan song and one of the best tracks ever written. thank you for everything

I’m actually at a loss for words with this album. So I’m not gonna say anything except this will go down in history as one of the best albums ever.

Instrumental Intro (0:00 - 3:18) Part I (3:18 - 5:25) Concorde flies in my room Tears the house to shreds Defines the night as such A home for us, stick insects And leaves no trace of luck At every market town that we intersect I die like fifteen times The dark blue stem brings me to their breast And I'm feeling kinda normal with a packed lunch Train rides don't hurt much these days We're all working on ourselves and we're praying that the rest don't mind how much we've changed So if you see me looking strange with a fresh style I'm still not feeling that great And then it's in soft-focus all around you You can't see the football game On my dad's sofa, we are still, and we never look at our phones anymore Instrumental (5:25 - 6:39) Part II (6:39 - 7:51) Oh, I can't think of anything better Pick a hair off my sweater And drown in me Like boyfriend jeans Oh, I haven't felt this way in, like ever I am the convo, you are the weather And the clamp is a cracked smile cheek And it tortures me I haven't felt this way in, like ever I am the convo, you are the weather And the clamp is a cracked smile cheek And it tortures me Instrumental (7:51 - 9:46) Part III (9:46 - end) In my bedsheets, now wet Of Charlie, I pray to forget All I've been forms the drone, we sing the rest Oh, your generous loan to me, your crippling interest And my bedsheets, now wet Of Charlie, I pray to forget All I've been forms the drone, we sing the rest Oh, your generous loan to me, your crippling interest Oh, in my bedsheets, now wet Of Charlie, I pray to forget All I've been forms the drone, we sing the rest Oh, your generous loan to me, your crippling interest ..

the piano in the back of the final part of the song gives me chills every time.

6:38 this is one of those riffs that will never get old and I could listen to it everyday. My god…. HOLY SHIT!!

even though I'll probably never be able to hear Isaac live, I am really fucking happy that I got to hear him at all, I am so glad for what he contributed to the band

Also thank you Isaac for this beautiful and awe inspiring performance. Not just with this song but with Ants From Up There and Black Country, New Road as a whole. You absolutely killed it, and I wish you the best with whatever route you take in life, we all love you and hope you’re okay ❤️

There are magical moments in music where anyone who hears a said song unanimously agrees that the music they’re hearing might be some of the best of all time. When I heard the album and saw everyone’s reaction to it,I felt that

I got goosebumps when Lewis and Georgia entered. A song hasn't had this effect on me in a long time

I've just finished listening to the album. It is really special. Decade-defining. A masterpiece. But words aren't really enough right now, so I'll just listen to it once again. Thank you, Black Country, New Road. Thank you, Isaac. I'll love all of you forever.

this has gotta be one of the best album closers I've ever heard

People may whine about how they prefer the previous lyrics but "All i've been forms the drone, we sing the rest" is a stunning line. I fucking love this song with all of my heart. Thank you so much for this stunner of an album and i hope, as a fan, that all of your future endeavours are as glorious as this music.

It is so incredibly sad that we will never be able to all sing the ending of this song together at a concert

Easily, one of the most incredible songs of all time.

One of best album closers of all time

I was feeling down and I said "I'm going to play this song to cry" but the emotion of this song is so overwhelming that I couldn't cry, on the contrary, it helped me, it absorbed all my mood.

I'm speechless and in tears. One of the best albums ever made.

I Believed Nothing Was Perfect Until I Heard Basketball Shoes

the way the riff from the intro comes back at the breakdown at the end is just perfect. this song is perfect.

Buried my gran a little while back, and it was probably Snow Globes or this silently echoing in my head when, hands grasping at nothing, I was the first to walk into the little chapel with her urn and everything. And it just, I don't know, at first it was like Isaac was screaming for me, but I've cried many times in the last weeks. He just does it more beautifully than me. This album is entering my life at the correct time, and I'm grateful for it.

this song made me feel the same way that the ending of the iron claw did. it’s such a titan of sadness and emptiness and it’s literally one of the best songs ever written, the contest in negligible

This song is the best one. One of what? All of them. Ever.

It's only February 4th, BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER, the best album of 2022 has already been released, and it is this, Ants From up There, by Black Country, New Road, a sublime 58 minutes, epic, noisy, and heartbreakingly beautiful PS: Lewis, Georgia, Charlie, Tyler, May and Luke, they are EXTRAORDINARY, every single one of them, but without your heartbreaking, forceful voice, it won't be the same, I will miss you, very, very much, Isaac.

Drum lines from 7:10 onwards are just sublime. So controlled but so intense. Well done “middle class” Charlie 😎

Total Arcade Fire funeral vibes here towards the ending. Wow.....in tears over here....Thank you Isaac...we will never forget

the song is so long you get mid-roll ads. classic

I dont even like this band really, but jesus christ this song took me on a journey from feeling alright, to optimistic, to balling my eyes out, to feeling incredibly hollow, to this overwhelming sense of release and pain, i love it so much

This song is about Charlie Dompler from Smiling Friends

I was listening to this on a plane ride to france. best song i ever heard

at this point in my life, this feels like the best song I have ever heard. I wonder if that may change. But no other song has encapsulated such a deep emotional feeling within me.

10:15 holy hell, bcnr predicted verbalase???

I bawled my eyes out at 11:45

Incredible. This really is the pinnacle of music.

Even with Isaac's departure, I don't think (or hope, at the very least) that this is the end of BCNR. And if it is, then holy shit, what an ending indeed.

Issac my mom called she said you can keep my basketball shoes…Godspeed to you and your friends

As many other people are saying: thank you. This album has given me more life than I could’ve imagined. I’ve been sharing the songs with as many people as possible just to show the world the beauty that is this band. I’ve cried multiple times listening to it. I could go on and on about every single aspect of this album, but I won’t. I’ll just say this again: thank you.

Sobbing and headbanging at the same time rn

Wow I got so lucky. This song came out 30 minutes ago. I've only listened to one song by these guys.

When the drums hit, it really does...

This album has not even been out for a week, yet I have come to the conclusion that this is definitely one of my favourite albums of all time. Their first record blew me away, but this one takes things up to a thousand. This song right here brings the whole album together, it completes it and makes the album feel like an adventure. Encompassing various melodies from previous songs and then the last few moment having the melody from the first song, looping the album and connecting the ends together. This song literally brought upon the albums existence too. The melancholic last few minutes with the crushing guitars makes me sob super hard every time, this album came out at a point of my life that is right now extremely difficult and probably one of the hardest it's ever been for me. Which makes this album that more special to me. Knowing that Isaac left the band 5 days before the release makes everything that more emotionally impactful too. Thank you so much, BC,NR

Already in 2024 and i can still say that this is my favorite song of this decade, such a emotional ride.

The unbelievably fat guitar in the last part of this song makes me feel like we're all going down with the ship, except we're both the ship and the iceberg, and maybe the big black icy sea

Exceptional - the new 'Sunglasses'? A suite/triptych that fits perfectly as the last song on the album. All the best Isaac.

I'm gonna start telling every person I see who says they were "born in the wrong generation" to listen to this band.

I showed one of the first recordings of this song to a girl I was talking to. Two years later we're not talking anymore and a whole lot has happened. Don't know if this is coming full circle, but music knows how to pull these ones on ya!

My life is an elaborate series of attempts at forgetting the forlorn and harrowed nights spent in Iowan corn mazes between the ages of six and thirteen

Fare thee Well Isaac and godspeed BC,NR as they enter a new era.

What an experience, what a great way to close a spectacular album. Such passion and care and thought is shown throughout these songs. The arrangements, the orchestration and the musicianship from all of you is stellar. Isaac's pen and pathos will be sorely missed, but what a triumphant way to go. Whish you all the very best.

This might be my favorite song of all time. Every time I listen to it I’m in awe of how beautiful every little aspect is.

I dont wanna be that commenter who tells their life story in every comment section, but the last couple years have been the worst in my life. Lost family, lost friends, lost lovers... i think a lot of us have been waiting for something that really kicks off how the rest of this decade should be. A time of mourning for everyone weve lost, and somehow find it in ourselves to continue pushing for the future.

Best album closer I’ve heard in a long while.

something about the way he delivers the "I am the convo, you are the weather" line

I actually waited to hear this song until the studio version came out, after listening to the rest of the album. I have never made a better musical decision in my life.

This is one of the most amazing songs I have ever heard. Thank you BC, NR. Thank you Isaac.

One of the greatest albums and album closers ever. Thank you BC,NR , thank you Isaac, you all wrote a page of history.

After taking a couple weeks to take some time with this song and the album it’s attached to, I can confirm that this is currently my front runner for the best song of the 2020s.

This album is to the Brixton Windmill scene what In The Aeroplane Over The Sea was to the Elephant 6 Recording Company - a flawless musical watermark 🎶

I spent the entire second half of this song wishing it would never end

The best song of the decade so far

One of the best songs in history. Each part of it is phenomenal. The saxophone, the math rock for the uplifting part, the Post-Rock epic crescendos, his emotional voice breaking. I mean, the whole album is a masterpiece and this song is beyond words.

it's only february and they already made one of the top albums of the entire decade what the actual shit

this song been out for a while now, still I'm speechless. I love this band so much the theatrical instrumental and passages brings emotions I forgot were there for a while and on top of that Isaac's lyrics omg. Thank u guys so much for this, I love this band. Godspeed Isaac thanks for warming our hearts with ur dismal, sincere and relatable lyrics, hope u feel better. Fly high, concorde

por fin después de casi 3 años sale la mejor canción de la historia

Incredible, absolutely a masterpiece. Thank you for this

Absolutely astonishing masterpiece it is. Enjoy every minute.

Is our generation experiencing what it was like for our parents when "In the Aeroplane Over the Sea" dropped?

Very thankful for this album and the band. Thank you for such a stellar trip, amazing all around

What a Masterpiece. Thank you BCNR and thank you Issac, I wish you the best for whatever you will do in the future ❤
