March 20th, 2009 at 8:19 pm
Gorgeous.
March 20th, 2009 at 9:07 pm
sounds freackn’ amazing….oh and i like how it’s spelled backwards “MAYBE WE’LL TURN THIS IN TO SOMETHING” …and hopefully u will
March 20th, 2009 at 9:55 pm
i can’t really think of words for this right now. maybe later. it’s still amazing, regardless.
March 20th, 2009 at 11:38 pm
simply… AMAZING!!!
March 20th, 2009 at 11:41 pm
fucking love this update, im writing this as im watching and miming nicks head beat… i just cant help it. love groovy jams like this, i know you guys could whip out some fun instrumentals. im tim and i thoroughly endorse this video.
March 21st, 2009 at 12:05 am
beeeautiful.
March 21st, 2009 at 12:09 am
I loved the metal bit at the end. It really brought the law.
March 21st, 2009 at 1:24 am
circa turned post-rock ~!
March 21st, 2009 at 7:37 am
I didn’t like it that much. That was really boring. it sounds like “I will posses your heart” by death cab for cutie. I liked the drumming but the eternal guitar loop was exhausting. please bring the “space rock” back into circa!!! (not being rude or anything, just some C.C, I know the new album will be amazing)
March 21st, 2009 at 9:22 am
I’m so excited for the new album. That jam just sounds like it should be an epic tune, like 8 to 10 minutes haha. Seriously, that bass line is just SCREAMING to have a story told over it.
March 21st, 2009 at 11:03 am
okay, i’ve decided. more long songs for the new record. we neeeeed them. with or without vocals, it doesn’t matter. you guys have such amazing talent with long songs, but you’ve never really used it, and it’s something i’m really looking forward to about the record. can’t wait to see you guys on tour.
March 21st, 2009 at 11:26 am
Nothing against Anthony Green but you guys should do more instrumentals. they are quite lovely.
March 21st, 2009 at 12:29 pm
Landscapes. I see mountains, endless water. We’ve met before. I know you, as do you. Meeting a brother for the first time. You already know. I hear shouts, justifiable. The emerging patterns from a formless void – sound escaping, defining lifetimes in the peaks and valleys. A shape against the background space. The negative defines the positive.

waffles
March 21st, 2009 at 2:11 pm
i like the ending, you guys are rediculous lulz
March 21st, 2009 at 2:27 pm
reminds me of the smashing pumpkins
March 21st, 2009 at 2:43 pm
last part was bad ass
March 21st, 2009 at 5:41 pm
you guys have amazing talent I still can’t stop listening to the first two albums and I know it’ll be the same with the third keep up the hard work can’t wait to rock out with you on tour peace
March 21st, 2009 at 6:51 pm
SURELY YOU’LL TURN THIS INTO SOMETHING GREAT
March 21st, 2009 at 8:07 pm
It’s good. Real good. And the dancing pants and ride at the end were a nice touch.
March 21st, 2009 at 8:19 pm
HOLY SHIT!
That was so sick, I’d love for you guys to have some like Can/krautrock jams in your guys music. Plus this vibe is a great new feeling for your music. I love this!
March 21st, 2009 at 11:35 pm
you brought the pain at the end.
lolz.
March 22nd, 2009 at 2:18 am
i would love to jam with yall. even though you guys are in a league of your own. keep posting this jam shit. good stuff.
March 22nd, 2009 at 11:35 am
the reason that was good was because it reminded me of nothing you’ve ever done before, but closer to the amazing layers you guys had on juturna. I dont understand how someone could find that boring, it gave me a mogwai and almost an explosions impression, the end was interesting but i think that, that direction is the most beautiful way to go.
March 22nd, 2009 at 1:27 pm
it definitely was closer to juturna but still new and different. i liked that. reminds me of smashing pumpkins also. noice.
March 22nd, 2009 at 1:53 pm
its been a long time a pluckin’
March 22nd, 2009 at 5:24 pm
that was pretty damn amazing. i actually liked the heavy jam at the end it was good.
March 22nd, 2009 at 6:55 pm
That was an incredible jam! The heavy bit at the end had me laughing hysterically. It reminded me of something they would do on Tim and Eric. That jam was extremely atmospheric. Even if it doesn’t become a song, it’s a good instrumental track. Sometimes, that’s all it calls for. Can’t wait for the new stuff, guys. Thanks for the art!
March 22nd, 2009 at 6:59 pm
jus what i needed. love the sound
March 23rd, 2009 at 1:34 am
dudes, whatever you play it’s awesome, you’re like the perfect band…
great sounds and melodies and awesome lyrics..
hope u come to Chile someday… (the country)
and i hope u can forgive me for downloading your albums but it’s not available here and it’s too expensive for me to buy the albums and get them by plain…
uh, by the way, if you read this… there’s any chance i can send you some songs i’m making so you can help me to finnish them? i think you’ll enjoy them and i don’t have a band right now and i think it would be a shame to waste them, i know you expect just elogies as you should, but if there’s any chance of it, please let me now… yes, dreamin’ it’s free… and sorry but my english it’s not that good yet..
thanks anyway, love your music and good luck, bye
March 23rd, 2009 at 9:17 am
You guys are orgasmic, keep this shit up, sounds amazing
March 23rd, 2009 at 9:30 am
Mmmm…what delicious little bits of sound…this album is going to be nothing short of a gourmet masterpiece…my ears are watering as I type.
March 23rd, 2009 at 8:34 pm
nice jam. needs a little something tho. i’m sure that wasn’t a finale bit or anything. keep on truckin.
March 23rd, 2009 at 8:46 pm
“I Will Possess Your Heart” + Siamese Dream-era Smashing Pumpkins… maybe a dash of Explosions in the Sky. Pretty cool guys, keep it up.
March 24th, 2009 at 4:29 pm
Brilliant.

Some of the guitar parts were real nice. The bass was too repetitive. I’m all for longer songs on your next album forever. I feel like the “On Lettings Go” needed a chance to breathe sometimes. Some instrumental interludes like this could be great in between or during songs.
March 26th, 2009 at 12:37 pm
That should have read, “… on your next album however.” not forever!
March 26th, 2009 at 3:04 pm
MORE INSTRIMENTALS!!!
March 27th, 2009 at 1:30 am
!!!!!osepohI….. And for those of you dissing the repetiveness, you’ve obviously never jammed enough…still luv ya tho… Also im thinking the end had a hint of animals fighting in there…
March 27th, 2009 at 1:33 am
Add a less uniform bass, make it more groovy and trippy
(with like slow parts, then small bursts of speed followed by continued slow tempo)
then to to drums add like a little bit of hihat jazzy play (open and closed hihat effects)
and then add a second guitar playing something really trippy kind of like in “in the morning and amazing” guitar or like the
Anthony Green “Springtime out the van window”
and it should sound cool.
sorry i dont want be an ass or anything im just trying to be like a friend to u guys.
i wish you guys the best.
March 27th, 2009 at 4:54 pm
this makes me too excited for the next cd.
March 28th, 2009 at 1:24 pm
If you have been in a serious band in which the members have a proper, intimate musical relationship, you’ll know that jams like this are not necessarily meant for the listeners’ pleasure as much as the players’ pleasure. They really weren’t thinking about whether you would like it or not while they were playing it. They were jamming, as per the title. I thank you, Circa, for giving us the privilege of being welcomed into that sacred space. I miss that experience…
Looking forward to everything you do,
Dave

more cowbell
March 29th, 2009 at 11:11 am
You say you don’t like it now but if they add another guitar and Anthonys vocals you won’t recognize it and end up loving it when u hear it on the cd
March 29th, 2009 at 2:57 pm
when is the new album coming out! im dying here! more updates!
March 30th, 2009 at 4:08 pm
I like this for a breakdown sort of thing. And for anybody who thought it was “boring”, not cool! This is part of the song-writing process. Keep up the originality guys.
March 30th, 2009 at 9:43 pm
its a fucking hit in my head…
March 31st, 2009 at 1:40 pm
You guys helped me understand. It’s nice to see where it’s going.
March 31st, 2009 at 2:09 pm

April 3rd, 2009 at 12:16 am
Really can’t wait for this new album. You guys are golden
April 3rd, 2009 at 1:09 pm
Jesus christ i can’t wait for this new album. I talked to Jesus just the other day and he’s just as stoked.
April 3rd, 2009 at 10:04 pm
Amazing. It kind of has a Radiohead feel to it. Makes me feel like I’m drowning, but it’s a peaceful kind of drowning. Almost like you know you’re dying, but you like it, and you want to keep drowning. The last part feels like you come to the realization that you’re about to die, so you struggle to get back to the surface, but it’s too late, and you end up adrift, waiting for someone to discover your body. Very cool.
April 5th, 2009 at 1:44 pm
Once the looping guitar comes to an end and the real playing begins, the first thing that came to mind was Silversun Pickups. Sounds a lot like them, which isn’t bad because they are another great band.
April 5th, 2009 at 1:55 pm
YES more circa cant wait for more YESSSSSSSSSSSS
come to (AUSTRALIA melbourne)
April 5th, 2009 at 8:36 pm
We need a new video or something guys.
April 5th, 2009 at 11:58 pm
i miss you guys. still, everything sounds beautiful. listening to olg and good old juturna and inuit makes me really happy. much support and love.
April 6th, 2009 at 12:24 am
get shoegazey.
April 6th, 2009 at 11:10 pm
definitely want to hear more. you guys need to seriously hit up new york city.
April 6th, 2009 at 11:17 pm
all these ideas are looking extremely promising…its shaping up to be something huge, from what i have heard so far. loving the different instruments and sounds. eagerly awaiting more rad jams.
April 6th, 2009 at 11:42 pm
what in thee hell is going on???
April 7th, 2009 at 1:10 pm
I agree with like 90% of the people’s post! I just can’t wait for your next albulm b/c it will definately be blasting in my car. I love you guys and keep giving us something to believe in!
April 7th, 2009 at 1:15 pm

April 7th, 2009 at 1:17 pm
i’m so dissapointed.
April 7th, 2009 at 2:05 pm

April 13th, 2009 at 5:02 pm
Incredible, especially the drumming! Improvised, isn’t it?
April 14th, 2009 at 1:53 am
very funny, you must be joking
April 15th, 2009 at 9:19 pm
I heard a part in the middle of the fast, heavy stuff, and it sounded too good to be improvised. I think you’re trying to sneak some of the album in under our noses
April 26th, 2009 at 4:47 am
seriously sleep on the ground made me realize what i live for. So beautiful.
April 27th, 2009 at 12:37 pm
This is awesome, i love jams like this!! Gets the juices flowin. Come do a cross Canada tour!! I’ll follow you guys through the whole thing
May 7th, 2009 at 7:39 pm

May 28th, 2009 at 10:10 pm
DUDE AWESOME !!! if you like listening to 3 notes over n over, sounds like something id play if i were stoned.
July 17th, 2009 at 4:47 pm
the 7:38-8:00 part brings me back to a juturna kind of feel. even though that isn’t what you all are going for, “going backwards”, that’s the sound that made me fall in love with circa survive.
