Absolutely breathtaking and captivating! The use of Buddhism and its rituals and the tempo of said rituals with your music is phenomenal.

5:25 That vocal performance in the last verse is truly breathtaking... Wow, what a record.
@ianbeaupre5838The cat was like, "How did I get in the middle of this?" Great song, great band.
@Darth_SpartanQue trem mais louco do caralho 😮!
@Daniel-ut1cmYooooo!!!!! 🎉 Fuck me up fam! Spiraling through the karmic wheel
@christopherburke2348This Mix is fucking insane! Absolutely perfect!
@MindlessStudiosI'm listening to this while reading Siddhartha by Herman Hesse, and also perfecting my shuriken star throwing with Masaaki Hatsumi Sensei. Just getting the body and mind ready for the Pit in 2026.
@lewismclean25really cool
@GrindoDromeYour face melts at 4:35
@margopop85this song has rewired my brain
@hotsaucejuniorHonestly the first time I ever heard this track, the whispering/talking part put me off immediately. But now I can't stop listening to this whole record, and this band blows my mind in the best way.
@azraelgmCant wait to see yall in NC in January! The album is a masterpiece
@wild.and.free336Just, wow 😮
@margopop85Sadhu🙏☸️
@Propagandhizer_07I'm not big on guitar solos, but the solo in this song friggen slaps 🔥🔥
@KunisakeRMThis is like Gojira meets Slint, which is something I never knew I needed so badly. Incredible.
@sherwoodzineDiscovering Agriculture right after their European leg, cause that's the life I chose to live....
@blackspragueJust heard them on the radio, was impressed so I'm going to hear them tomorrow nite...
@taknothing4896best band in the world
@AliceYobbyThis channel is worth sharing I enjoyed every second of it.
@ThiTrinhNguyen-bx3gsEverything is PERFECT
@adriannapotkowska2408Well, I must say that I hate "traditional" black metal but this tune transcend that limited label. Song of the year? Maybe...
@fbrunocunhaMy new favorite band! So many great elements from production to vocal styles, to the absolutely ripping guitars and ultra creative writing!
Some of these solos should have long earned these players features on the covers of guitar mags everywhere!!
Fucking terrible!
@Necrobutcher777This song is definitely gonna get me through this week. Thanks Agriculture! Ya boi needed this shit.
@matthewburton6360Generally not a fan of white people buddhism but this rips
@TheSwagSocietysounds like Nickleback
@atn_holdingsthis is the sicko mode of blackgaze
@mrtjwitdabs69491:20 Kobeni's english VA some of the time:
@ansuz5903An absolutely phenomenally well written and executed album! This is high vision stuff!!
@LanearndtI'm amazed at what I (admittedly little) have read about Agriculture. I read that they have laughed and joked onstage, though I have not seen that in any of the YouTube videos I've seen (except a small part about the Chiefs :P).
I guess I hear this and I hear suffering and pain. I don't know how it's possible to scream like that and speak so meekly and not be expressing suffering and pain. Maybe it's confirmation bias on my part?
EDIT: September 18's interview with Treble is helping me understand.
just here for my daily listen
