Impressing how he sounds live exactly like on the album
Moritz Paul thiiiiis
They really live for the art.
Yes, it's true! I saw them last summer and they're the same like on the album.
Mesmerizing!!!!
he eats cd's for breakfast
Listening to Cigarettes After Sex is like falling in love for the first time, or lookin into the eyes of your lover. I can relate to their songs and feel nostalgic about the emotions and vibes the songs give even though I may have never felt them, yet.
Totally agree with you! That's exactly how I felt.
literally
omg yes!! That’s exactly how I feel
Very well said

The magic of Cigarettes After Sex is their music makes you feel floating in the air that is full of memories but so peaceful
Very well stated. Godspeed.
This!
It's almost ethereal and nostalgic ✨🥂🎬‼️
Floating on water
Im baked. So true
i feel nostalgia for such sweet days i haven't even experienced yet.
Phil Sandoval this band os famous for ewoking that emotion within the listener. I find it amazing how it can have a collective effect on so many people. Makes me think we're all connected in some weird way.
Turnover
Nostalgia is very funny feeling which tickles us with its icy fingers in warm summer evening ,when you're sitting under the shadows of fleeting memories
Well said Phil
Nice thumbnail
perfect for rainy days, long drives, night drives, walks on an empty-lit street, coffee, and literally, while having cigarettes after sex
It is.
Empty
I don't smoke, but other than that, yes, perfect for many things.
Or flying in a plane, looking out the window at the peaceful clouds
and after sex for sure 😆
They’re one of those bands that you get one taste of and immediately think “oh I get it” they nail that melancholic vibe so well
Not to mention that their music is so addictive as well. I love them ❤️ New favorite indie band
Perfectly spoken ❤
Yes 😭😭😭
this band has my whole heart. this band gives me this undescribable feeling of love. I‘ve never loved a band as much as I love Cigarettes after Sex
This band is perfect
We cannot blame you. I've known this band for just 24 hours and I fell in love with them, immediately. My daughter introduced me to them and I cannot stop listening to them. :)
Find them it's like fallin in love for the first time.

Exactly what he wanted...
Not really a one night stand type music, it’s ball and chain type music.
ferpiopiogm
thanks Thom you're always right
ferpiopiogm YEEEES!!!
Not a wasted note. The melodies. The restraint. The perfect pitch. So sublime!
This is the band that I can always make myself calm and relaxe while I am so under pressure without asking anyone to help me with that.
I feel so lost and relaxed with them.
They are absolutely amazing
K. makes me deeply sad, and I love it.
Saba Aghajani same
K. Gives me memories that I never even have. It also makes me cry as well
All of these songs make my heart ache honestly
Brings me to my early 90s childhood when it all fell apart.
man fek mikardam in zane :D
this is totally orgasmic, it's like falling in love for the first time..euphoric feeling that is totally indescribable, this is music inspired by Cupid itself..this is ART
I so agree!!
Agreed
pretty funny because their latest single is Falling in Love
I love this band, but you are exagerating! :)
SWEET 🌸 🌺 🌼 💓 A R T
after listening to them for 5 years....i always thought the vocal is a female...but damn..his voice is absolutely stunning
💫
@@rociobaez8109 same hahahaha
About to say that wow
Same until today
😂 I was thinking same as you but a day I just seen this video and understood .....this band is fantastic 🥰😍🥰
I’m totally obsessed with their songs 🥺
Especially Sweet and Apocalypse
Sunsets too
@@LoLbllee9988 Crush is a beautifully written song as well.
"K." as well
Heavenly
All the songs of this band are pure art 🩶
His voice is absolutely incridible. The most impressive male voice I ever have heard.
Reminds me of Portugal the Man, same female voice coming out of a male voice. I like it.
When I first heard the band I was completely sure that the vocals were female, haha.
Listen to TR/ST. Robert has a impressive and particular male voice too, they have a KEXP session.
Him and Jeff Buckley
check out Lydia too!
So very glad I discovered them by accident.
The FBI agent that made that "accident" happen: *wiping tears" ur welcome
@@naylachagas3865 haha i need to thank my FBI agent too
Same here , I accidently found them
It wasn't an accident. The universe knew you were ready for it and knew you would appreciate it. ☺️💗
Heard “nothings gonna hurt you baby” at the end of a movie and used Shazam and fell in love all of the music.
This band never fails to bring tears to my eyes absolutely beautiful
I just discovered them, I am obsessed.

Just a couple of friends creating ambient music with atmospheres of encountered feelings that makes you want to smoke until it’s done and drink until dawn. Great interpretation. Shout out to the drummer. That tempo thou.
I'll never forget this record. I listened to it while I climbed a small mountain by myself this summer - in the middle of the night. Funny how things happen when your experiencing heartbreak. I tried to have a spiritual experience by laying down half way up the mountain and looking at the sky under the midnight sun and I kinda did. Thanks C.A.S
Luca Leaf good for you!!
Luca Leaf these songs make you cry in a good way....
Wow, beautiful. xxx
that sounds amazing
The world need more people like you 💜
apocalypse is my favorite, it’s just so soothing and dreamy, all of them are tho
I agree with you on apocalypse. But it's amazing that there's a few contenders for top spot
I agree but my favorite is Cry. the only music I could listen for hours on loop.
You know that it's a good band when you can close your eyes and get lost in the old memories and good times of the past, just with Cigarettes After Sex.
I'll be honest, ive just been getting into CAS, and it brings me such strong emotion with every song that I hear that I cannot go a single song without crying. I'm so glad I found this band
Their music, idk it makes me wanna light some candles and have a boyfriend lmao
Why hello there. LOL Kidding XD
I would love to find the especial one girl, and listen to these amazing vibes while holding her left hand. Like a creamy film.
If that's not possible, then I would like just to be alone on the top on a mountain...
nori de groot SAMEEE GIRL
I already do that ;) with my GF
And have sex lol
What an interesting guy. I like how he's open to explain his sound and art in detail. He talks very softly but very fast. Excellent music.
17:20 "music gives you good feelings that helps you cope with bad feelings" the exact reason im listening to this band
The thing I love the most about this entire interview is how she actually listened to the record and did her homework. This is so intimate and so completely and utterly brimming with an undying passion for music. It's beautiful. I wish more mainstream interviews were like this.
Stuti J that’s precisely that’s how one should interview bands.
This would forever be associated with this one girl who just decided to cut all communication with me. She once told me it's hard to share her favorite music to people you're dating since it leaves the possibility that it might turn sour and it ruins the band. She shared this band with me (but decided to leave me anyway) so I'm fucking taking this band with me.
John Soriano I feel it John haha Well keep your head up man
rekt
I have been there many times, my friend. There are bands throughout my life that I have difficulty listening to because of a certain person -- Depeche Mode, Smashing Pumpkins and, more recently, Iron and Wine -- are just a few.
for me it's easy to remember the good times. the records I listened to directly after a breakup are much worse because you remember being miserable
lmao
Ethereal, hypnotic, and intoxicating - Cigarettes After Sex make me reminisce in the nostalgia of moments that have never happened to me.
The bass sounds so soft and light, but full. Incredible sounds!
This makes me want to be alone in a dark room with red wine and a cigarette.
I dnt drink or smoke. But i need this both for setting ambience
their music is so soothing to my ears. it makes me want to run around in a field of sunflowers whilst a boy i love chases after me, as we both feel young, wild, free and happy. but at the same time, i want to sit on a rooftop in paris whilst smoking cigarettes with my homies as we talk about the mysteries of this universe and why we’re always feeling so lonely and upset as we get older.
his voice makes me feel so safe and comfortable and gives me nostalgia idk how to explain
similar tune, same flavor but never makes me bored!! Is this what we call addiction???
All their songs are so calm, I listen while sleeping best lullaby ever!!!
This is pure, orgasmic, dreamy, emotional, mesmerizing. Man, this is just art!
Been a fan of this band for years now they never fail me to amaze me, seeing their live performances while laying in the bed making fake scenarios with my other one. This band is a hidden gem and I hope people will find this and I hope they make an album soon.
i rolling my cigarettes, buy my coffee, i put on my earphones, open their songs, while sip my cigar.. what a feeling..
I think all of their fans should meet and build a different world!
what a world that might be,
I’m down for that
I'm in!
Me too!
I thought that was called Tumblr.
Jk. I’m in!
YAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSS, I WAITED SO LONG FOR THIS
OMG I love your channel
Amo tus traducciones
Wild Youth Subs sssss
Wild Youth Subs Te amo.
Como amo tu canal!
sharing this song with someone is like sharing your grandma's recipies. share it only with your loveliest ones. the top most secret song of the present times. Nostalgic, orgasmic, reminiscent, feelgood and all the adjectives which fall short to praise this band. Thank you so much for the kind of art you guys have created in this chaotic world. I would be lucky to attend one of your concerts. Please come to BENGALURU in INDIA i've been waiting for you guys.
They are going to be in Mumbai on 29th.
they going to your living man
incredible band ... pitty they are not as mainstream as they deserve ... great work guys for producing quality music
Didnt think they would be this amazing live
Went to their show last year in Toronto, loved the show but probably the only band i ever wanted to see while sitting down.
amazing voice , sounds exactly like the songs on spotify
I met this wonderful band through a series and went crazy ... I went after the soundtrack and took a tour of everything I could, singer, lyrics, instruments, band, finally this rare combination of voice, lyrics, melody and instruments paralyzed me. I needed something invigorating that would take me out of the physical and bring me inner harmony to the ancestor. It's a set of subjective emotions that explode when you hear a deep, sweet, subtle voice.
Even Greg's singing is pure magic. Congratulations. I will take this finding to the Brazilian people
Apocalypse is my favorite of theirs. I fell asleep listening to music and woke up sorta hearing it like it was part of a dream. It was my first time hearing anything like it, and it was a magistic moment to say the least..
I wish my girlfriend loved this band. :( They're so amazing. When "Sweet" started and he held that microphone with eyes closed and started singing with his heart, I got chills all over and tears in my eyes. This band is fucking AMAZING!!!
K, you’re romantic.
dump her and go out with me lol
I think you know what to do Kevien.Just let her down gently while Cigs After Sex is quietly playing in the backround.Itll remind you exactly why you must do this.You dont need that negativity in your life Kevien.
I can be your girlfriend ahah
I think I couldnt be with a girl who doesnt like this music haha not liking CAS is a big red flag for me xDDD
I remember being with this girl I liked after meeting her once and then messaging often with her for a year and then she invited me to meet her at hers in Spain. I was staying at her's and then we played Affection and the intensity of the romance captivated me. I was looking at her as she was looking outside the window as she was holding back the curtains and she smiled whilst looking at me from the corner of her eye. I then just grabbed her and kissed her and she then kissed me back intensely and it still is to this day one of the most intense and memorable moments of my life. Thanks for the music
Wow 😍
That's what I wait and live for.
may you live more of those moments - I wish that for everybody
this was like a movie scene 😍
His voice feels like a safe place and he's so angelic
I love this thing. I love this feeling. It's sadness over happiness and viceversa. It's like having soft sex...
Its a shame that this type of music isn't appreciated by a wider audience, but fuck it. I Love This!
You know what... I actually prefer it that way... Makes it all mine(all lovers)
Bill Adam From Thailand and I love 'em too
Yeah fuck it it’s our type of music !
Bill Adam s
Do you know some other band with similar type of music?
This dude's voice is beautiful.
Thank you for the wonderful concert!
I didn't think the vocalist would look like this.. I thought he'd look like a white depressed skinny dude in his 20s XD
Absolutely brilliant, love this band so much. Sweet is my favourite it's so sexy and magical. Cant stop listening I'm hooked.
i mean, i just thought it was a woman in her 40es
sameeeee
Same...😂
Lol so same! I imagine so handosme and young
When I first heard these guys, I thought of living w my first love in our first house together, slow dancing w all the candles lit up, and it's a nice breezy summer evening..
I come on CZcams to find mostly everyone has a nostalgic feel when listening to them 😍 KIND OF MUSIC IM FUCKING SEARCHING FOR
His voice is just ❤
Thanks KEXP for this piece of art. Wonderful.
This band is like love and sex had a baby
Such an interesting voice. So soothing and smooth. This band is great for reflecting on your life after a long day.
Man seriously such an underrated band .. I just love their melody, its soul soothing.. (love)
So glad one of my friends introduced me to this band. How can I am only came across them now! Crazily good and absolutely amazing, seem to able to make your mind wandering wildly yet calmly at the same time ( not sure if this making any sense). I hope for more new songs from them.
It makes sense, I feel the same way!
This can be described with just one word, mesmerizing
"Music can save peoples' lives...it saved mine." So true.
you and me both
Mine too. Love this band so much.
ive been listening to cigarettes after sex since i was eleven. honestly, they make me feel more at home than anything else ♡
Just heard their music for the 1st time live last night. Wow. I lost a quart of tears while floating in an ethereal trance state to this beautiful music and this amazing voice of an angel...
Found them 3 months ago, died crying myself
"Music makes life worth living basically. It gives you these good feelings, and helps you cope with the bad feelings." I couldn't agree more.. Their music has helped me through the last two difficult years of my life. ❤❤
Second this!
They're all dressed in Black from head to toe, Like gosh even his guitar is black, I love that. There's something beautifully mysterious about them 🖤🖤🖤
Brilliant observation. Couldn't agree more.
Love love love. Their music is so soothing. They’ve helped me get through some rough times.
Listening to Cigs now in my late 40’s reminds me of when I was in my early 20’s listening to Slowdive with my first girlfriend ❤️
Have you listened to Slowdive's performance on KEXP? It's awesome!
@@trappart9209 oh I don’t think so but I’m on it! Listening to kexp for like 20 years now thank you 🙏🏽
this is so sweet awe
@@sdalby9127 Maybe we had the same Girlfriend! 😂
@@trappart9209 it's so good, like they never left.
I can't recall the last time music had this effect on me.
They are intoxicating! Only word I can think of. So is his voice.
thick and sweet bass , great band , perfect name for them , content just like after sex ! loved this band for awhile , glad to see live ! thank you kexp again !
Agree...love the bass. Would love to hear it played with a fretless bass maybe?
Such a great smooth sound. I appreciate the ability to maintain the dynamics they do in their songs... smooth and swells when needed to build the energy.
Two plus months of listening to CAS and can't get enough of the sound of the soul of this band.
Apagas la luz te pones auriculares y prendes CAS ☄☄☄☄☄☄☄☄
"This always happens to me this way recurring visions of such sweet days"
god that one kills me every time
love this band.
Listening to Cigarettes After Sex is like being sang to by an angel
I totally adore this group!
So many moments in these songs where it's just purely drums, bass, and vox... yet it's never empty sounding. Wth. Unbelievably complimentary tones all around.
Best 2017 album for me.
Some of the most beautiful music I've ever heard! Bravo, Greg and Company! I love every note l hear from y'all.
cigarettes after sex songs makes me feel so nostalgic i love their songs soo much
Idk, these songs make me think of my ex, I get a little teary, maybe drunk and stoned isn't the best time to listen to these guys....is that just me?
Stoned is the best time to listen to these guys. Trust me
Lmaooooooo... I can see why it would be bad. Bittersweet most of all. But Def sweet.
I tend to do it as well, but mostly it's me thinking of ex all the time and all the time listening to them, getting drunk often, which breaks my heart every single time, still, don't want to stop doing it, even tho it ain't healthy and I know it :/
Same makes me think of my ex alot and the good times
Here’s a hug for u man *Hug*
This is not a music for the mass, it’s designed for a specific audience
Haters, out!
EXACTLY! well said :)
👏👏👏
True !
Their most popular video has over 65 MILLION views. That's just one video, others are also in the high millions. You are not special or unique and this band is really popular right now with "the masses". You are one of them. Stop this shit.
is this what you tell yourself to feel special?
This album reminds me of my first break up back in 2017. It’s all I listened to back then, I don’t look back on it with pain now - it’s more a sense of gratefulness for the experiences. If any of you are going through this right now, it gets better - you gain a new perspective x
Love this!! More live sessions like this pleaseeee
Still listening in 2019 :)
Amazing and so emotional! The singer's voice without loud or nasal sounds is a proof of how singing can be full of emotion.
All songs are pure magic. Off the beaten track, definitely.
Thanx KEXP!
Absolutely amazing and so blissful :)
Who keeps watching this videos again and again like 3 to 5 times a week? I just can't get enough of it!
I was so in love with this absolutely intoxicating woman singing behind the name Cigarettes After Sex... then it turned out it was a guy all along! Still in love tho...
Omg same! I was like wow what a low sultry voice lol
maybe he was a women before...
@LVerti Your comment doesnt make sense
same
Wait really Greg sounds like a girl?
I feel as if I have been asleep until now becsuse I just discovered CaS. I cannot express how much I love their music. My heart.......
this has become one of my fav. band ever.....love this sweet music & can't say godbye.
Very Powerful voice and very addictive. It is really soothing specially if you are low ...may of the lyrics correlate to happenings in many peoples lives.. but he sings it so well ... makes you want to go back. I have been listening to him for a while and wanted to check if there are any live videos. I hope he they come out with more... they really stand out. Love them. Reo Speedwagon would be really grateful... he sung it beautifully !!
