Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Lift your Skinny Fists like Antennas to Heaven

Generally regarded as one of the greatest albums of the noughties by the likes of Pitchfork, , this two-disc instrumental post-rock symphony by a gaggle of Canadian anarcho-Marxists is the soundtrack to the apocalypse. Samples of old men mourning the halcyon days of their youth spent sleeping at the beach on Coney Island mingle with stirring cinematic strings, scraping industrial drone and wild swirling shoegaze guitar on LIFT YR SKINNY FISTS LIKE ANTENNAS TO HEAVEN (2000).   This episode on Enjoy An Album, Christopher and Liam listened to Godspeed You! Black Emperor, and now they’re going to talk about it, as well as the way most record labels are owned by the same corporations that own weapons manufacturers, and what differentiates Godspeed from other post-rock bands like Mogwai and Explosions In The Sky. All that, plus Secret Posho, Unhinged YouTube Comment of the Week and Tattoo Woohoo/Tattoo Boohoo. Enjoy!   Thanks to this weeks Sponsors MANSCAPED Manscaped | https://manscaped.com 20% off with the promo code: ALBUM20  #sponsored #ad
