Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven não é só um álbum, é uma experiência auditiva de beleza delirante, uma obra de arte que com certeza não será esquecida pela posterioridade.Como eu já devo ter dito a vocês, não sou muito bom em resenhas, portanto colocarei algumas encontradas no site rateyourmusic.com:
"There's not a lot to say about this record. It's the single album I spent the most time with and I know that not a single second of that was wasted. It's an anthem to pleasure, pain, salvation, damnation, creation, destruction, life, death, everything and nothing. And it's perfect in what it is; every single second is."
"Holy crap.Honestly.... what can you say? Every word in the English language, and most likely every language on Earth, would have a tough time describing this one. Words honestly cannot describe what's here. It doesn't do the album justice.Therefore, in establishing that words are futile when trying to talk about this album, I'll simply say this: It left me breathless at times. This album possibly just rewrote the definition of the power of music."
"One of my favourite albums ever. Every track off this is pure genious. At times beutiful, uplifting and powerfull, others its dark and sinister and with moments of muddy and ambient, noisy sections with lots of field recordings. Everyone must own this album really."
"One of the most hauntingly beautiful pieces of music to ever be recorded and released."
"Godspeed You! Black Emperor, ¨Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven¨, disco-duplo, composições longas... tudo aqui é superlativo: nome, título, número de mídias, tempo. Não é por acaso que a banda canadense tenha chamado tanta atenção da crítica e arrebatado ouvintes pouco acostumados a tal tipo de música.O fato é que mesmo aos ouvidos pouco afeitos àquilo que foge dos três acordes habituais da música fácil, o som aqui apresentado consegue agradar pela simbiose entre o moderno e o antigo, o pop e o erudito. Penso que neste aspecto, o papel do Godspeed é louvável."
"Absolutely awe inspiring.I have never felt so much emotion while listening to music until I heard this album."
