The guy that put an ad right before the solo deserves prison

[bigteach]

Was jealous of the 60's n 70's for their music. The universe did us a solid to give us this band now.

[mxdaisy]

how this album wasn't nominated for a Grammy, I will never comprehend...

[myind]

The ad break right as the solo drops is a crime against humanity

[Bontipotamus]

This song is just surreal. When I first listened to it, it was close to midnight. It was dark, I had my eyes closed and I was experiencing the music. I listened to the whole album in order. When the cut off happened halfway through, I thought, "Please don't have this song end." Then... The faintest note, getting louder. When I tell you I got chills on the buildup and climax after the cut, I mean it. I felt the solo and everything after in my bones. It's an experience I've never had before, and one I hope I will have again. I hope some others got to experience this as well. Absolute 10/10 song.

I hope this song is played for 30 minutes live in concerts.

[ToWhiskeyclone]

Its a damn shame you'll never hear this on the radio. It's a banger.

[gwyn]

perfect way to end this absolute masterpiece of an album.

[rotimaros]

Great song, this album deserves more award

[Witchy.Pan.]

It won best guitar solo of the 21st century for a reason

[rocknrollbootlegs]

Just one word for describe this whole album: *ORGASMIC*

[punkpop]

God damn. I thought their first album needed more guitar solos and this one blew my mind. Anyone who hates these kids is out of his mind.

[fireman]

I wanna thank their mother for giving birth to 3 awesome musicians

[ryanharrison]

If this song doesn’t energize your soul you don’t have one!!!!

[ericgrinstead]

54 years old and no newer group thus far has given me chills like this. They have captured the sound of my teen years and created art I thought I would never hear again. Blown completely away. These guys are legends in the making if not already.

[Julia-yjqk]

Hands down one of this generation’s best bands

[bencarter]

My prediction is that this will be the best song on the album

[strangewayfaringstranger]

4:48 sounds like Josh coming from the abyss, nowhere and yet somewhere in another time and place. This is utterly amazing. That solo hits - pure ecstasy.

Lyrics
All across the west we traveled wayward for
To find the weight of dreams in gold
Heaven sent us here to meet the hallowed shore
To claim the wealth that we had sold

Gold mines melting men in the sunshine
Spoiled wine tastes so sweet we have gone blind
Gold mines melting men in the sunshine
Spoiled wine tastes so sweet we have gone blind

We stole from her a cloak of studded majesty
The queen is dead, we robbed her grave
You can still bathe in the river, but it ran dry
And all of us have turned away

Gold mines melting men in the sunshine
Spoiled wine tastes so sweet we have gone blind
Gold mines melting men in the sunshine
Spoiled wine tastes so sweet we have gone blind

[riffjohnson]

I don’t think most can fathom what this band is in the present. The arrangements, the harmonics along with the hits..it’s the music industry left for dead 20 years ago being rescued by one band
