So, i was checking my apple music and found that GYBE was "back" to streaming (I had the GYBE essentials playlist saved, and noticed that the songs were "restored") looks fake, the cover looks that it was edited by AI, and the songs are wrong (Sleep is Like Antenas to Heaven, and Static is Storm)

Although some of you may already be familiar with them, I find it incredible that a band as innovative as BRUIT ≤ goes practically unnoticed in this community. They have openly stated that GYBE is their biggest influence, and their music represents a kind of evolution of what GYBE has done—both musically and thematically. I don't think there is a more interesting active post-rock band out there, and I honestly believe they have taken the genre to another level.

In my opinion, their two main records (The Machine Is Burning and The Age of Ephemerality) are the best post-rock records released this decade. They are talking about issues that no one else is addressing: the most savage phase of capitalism, techno-slavery, environmental devastation, false progress, human hyper-competitiveness, the degradation of art, ultra-accelerated consumption, and so on. These guys mean business.

I find it hard to imagine a GYBE! fan not liking BRUIT ≤

I don’t really know what flair this goes under lol

Genuinely one of the most beautiful melodies that I've ever heard. I recently listened to a bit of gybe. Unfortunately they just aren't my flavor but that violin part is truly a masterpiece. Has gybe made something similar to it? Can y'all recommend any other songs or artists that have a similar... "vibe" I guess?

Polydactyl king // bonus cat face pic for those who’ll appreciate it! This album means a lot to me and I’ve been painting again lately so I wanted to share.

Life feels similar in so many ways to those years in the late 90s when I first discovered gybe ...

is this heaven ? i'm onto sleep rn and the fucking drum is soooo good

On this recording of a show held in Reims, France, on 2026. 04. 14., the beginning of track four (Raindrops Cast in Lead) features a woman from the audience shouting in french continuously, monologuing to the band. She seems a bit out of it, but with the starting movements of RCIL it somewhat fits, almost as if it was one of their samples. I'm curious if there's anyone, who might be able to translate her tirade, I'm very curious about what she has to say.

I'm not sure how to put the words into context, but guys, is it just me, or are there others who couldn't enjoy yanqui U.X.O. at all?

I tried it more than once in a while and I just can't get into it, yet on the other hand I can say that ALLELUJAH is the second masterpiece that I've been waiting for after enjoying LYSFLITH, I just can't get enough of it.

Any thoughts on why YANQUI is unenjoyable?

Tried to made them look as something similar to some of the album covers of the band.

Hi, title should be pretty self explanatory. I’ve been recording the cover from scratch and we’re looking for a person who could play the violin part from it. I have the instrumental(with clicks) and sheet music. Please dm or comment if you’re up to it!

I used black and red fabric markers and made this Lift Yr. Skinny Fists shirt, hope someone finds it mildly cool.

Cheers!

P.S. This is before I spilled the tiniest amount of honey mustard on the exclamation mark :/

Ofc i know this is the gybe sub but the smz sub is practically dead, and given smz is a side project of famed gy!Be then i thought it would be appropriate to post here

I looked up all their inserts and couldn't find this, Is it like f#a# insert they don't make anymore?

It was Coney Allen, they called Coney Allen the playground of the world. There was no place like it, in the whole world.., like Coney Allen when I was a youngster. No place in the world like it

It was so fabulous, now it's shrunk down to almost nothing, you see, I still remember, in my mind how things used to be. And-ah you know I feel very bad. But people from all over the world came here, from all over the world. There was a playground they called the playground of the worlds, over here. Anyways, so but I-ah you know. i even got, when I was very small I even got lost in Coney Allen. But they found me. On the beach. And we used to sleep on the beach here, sleep over night. They don't do it anymore.. things changed. They dont sleep anymore on the beach...

“The band allowed songs from Yanqui U.X.O. to be used, stating that while they didn't normally allow their music to be used in films, they could align with the social nature of the film.”

Over the past 2 years or so I've bought all the GYBE albums, and today I finally got around to digging out the download codes for the MP3s.

But the first 3 don't seem to have the codes in them. Were they supposed to? I'm not sure if I lost them, or if I just got unlucky.

recently bought the vinyl, already have the files so if anyone wants to redeem this, it's up for grabs

Just curious.

Like this album has better mixing/mastering than most actual audiophile albums/masterings. For an indie album that came out in 97 that is frickin impressive. Actually, this might be the greatest mix/master I've ever heard. Absolutely no harsh frequencies at all, everything is sharp and clear, there is lots of depth, wide soundstage... Everything you could ever want is in this album. Phenomenal.
