    As an Albanian, this song makes me feel important.

    Rumor has it that Albanian is gonna be recorded as a studio cut sometime this summer...you heard it first from me! ... looks like you were right. This is Mladic on 'Allelujah! Don't Bend! Ascend!

    This song destroyed my face the first time I heard it live. Only GY!BE can fuse Arabic dance music and doom metal into a 22 minute masterpiece.

    Yeah I have the recording of the March 27th Metro show, which I was at. Sounds amazing.

    I highly recommend checking out the version of Albanian from http://www.archive.org/details/gybe2011-03-26.ca14.flac24 It really is well recorded, very little crowd noise and just perfect sounding.

    i must agree with impronen. there is so much that is missed in the recordings that can only be captured in a live setting. so much depth in their music - it made the shapes and colors in my mind vibrate as i closed my eyes, and the feelings protrude out along my skin to the tips of my hairs.

    Heard it yesterday. Profoundly moving thing. I love the bootlegs but the real thing is something inexplicable.

    So heavy and dark, even by Godspeed standards. Loving it.
