this song helped me conquer my fear of heights last winter as I am a construction worker and was scared to death of heights I smoked a bowl of 5-meo-dmt jammed this song and heights aint scared me since love this song
These guys seem to have done to Sabbath tunes, what Mazda did with the Wankel rotary engine. Kudos ..... More addictive than anything I can imagine...hooked

***** Making tons of new music man....the latest Palace In Thunderland album is out, we're working on another new album, and also a split 12". Glad you dig it!!
@@oldcratch Hopefully you also picked up the split with the W Likes and The King of the Empty Aeon? Also, we've recorded a new Black Pyramid album that will hopefully be released soon-ish. It's called "The Paths of Time Are Vast."
It's a damned shame we aren't going to ever hear Black Pyramid songs like this anymore. New material they have up just does not have the epic qualities and melodies because without Andy writing they just can't duplicate what is now missing from the formula that makes there songs so meaningful and memorable. It isn't even the same band left.
Well, we're writing stuff again, I hope that it can measure up?? Have you heard "The Quantum Phoenix"? We did a split 12" with Enhailer, and I think it's pretty solid. We also just recorded a brand new album, "The Paths of Time Are Vast", and it kind of picks up where "Illumination" left off, honestly.
Just remembered we also changed and stripped down another riff in the middle section when Clay brought it to my attention that it sounded too much like a Mastodon riff...
Hello, moi je craque sur le morceau qui est joué à la 8ème minutes environ mais je ne sais pas le titre si quelqu'un le connait merci de m'en informer !
@eyehatehippies666 How on earth am I supposed to know who you are, anybody can say to be Andy Beresky. I can start telling everyone that I'm Lee Dorrian (which of course isn't true). Now, if you really are Andy Beresky, than I consider it an honor to receive a reaction of the man in person (you). Now, real one or not, I wish Andy Beresky did never leave Black Pyramid.
That's not dodging the question at all. If you have Mason family, then ask them about Hiram Abiff. Perhaps they'll tell you the real story, or even have a copy of the publication. Only Masons have the published version ;-)
uggh... i already know that stuff. i know a lot more than you're assuming i know.. therefore that is why i originally asked the question in the first place
Hiram Abiff was the head builder for the Temple Of Solomon, yet why is his complete story and history not published anywhere? Or IS it published somewhere, in secret? What is the significance of his tragic death and subsequent rebirth? ;-)
That's what symbolism is.It might mean nothing to you and mean the world for others even if you created that symbol, it does not matter its art and it's subjective. If you could just let it go and stop arguing pointlessly. I am saying this with the best intentions as I am subscribed to you and saw from a long time your continued argue. Two people may never agree on something.
@@biplabroy8991 okay, well....take a look at the images used, the symbolism of the different numbers and colors, etc. Think about what illumination is, and what it isn't. Those who think they understand illumination deceive themselves. Those who understand self-deception are illuminated ;-)
the 3 pillars , red on one side.. blue on the other.. black in the middle.. is something very secret.. u can't even find in any documentaries about anything.. so whoever did that art in this video knows things highly secret.. that was my point.. and ur lyrics yea lol.. so where did u learn the stuff u sing about if u think it's stupid?
@eyehatehippies666 it sucks that you were miserable while you were in the band. I think you guys were great, not a crap sleep rip-off, but the music industry can be pretty shitty and I can totally understand why you gave it up. I just hope the fact that so many of us enjoy this music is some kind of consolation.
@bob23yer Eh, I do not have any more hate or heavy riffs in me. Black Pyramid is a lot better off without me, and Darryl is a good friend. Twice the guitarist and twice the singer that I will ever be. Check out his other projects. Still a bit of mischief in me, I am just done with music, other than for fun with my friends. I am nothing special, forget that honor crap, I just want to be an ordinary guy.
who did the artwork.... occult means "what is hidden" i dont' think it's that stupid... but there's a lot of dark stuff in there... i have a bunch of master masons that were in my family. they were also occultists... there's a lot of secrets in that part of the world's knowledge... i ain't in no cult or nothing lol, i play drums and guitar and have a metal band as well. the guy who did your artwork obviously knows some really secret things, like shit u wont' even find online , deep secrets
@C0k3d I do not want to play live, I will probably just dick around with my cassette four track with friends every once in awhile, just for my friends and myself. I play mostly folk, shoegaze and emo these days when I jam with my friends. I just want to have fun with music again, like a normal person. Black Pyramid was not fun, it sucked and I was miserable.
@MarkGentle1978 Don't feel sorry, it's what I really wanted. Just to be a normal, ordinary guy, with nothing special about me whatsoever. For me, that's where happiness is, not chasing some imaginary dream of playing in a crappy Sleep rip-off band. That's just useless and a waste of time. If you like the music, okay, whatever. I simply don't feel like pretending I'm that person anymore, there are plenty of other people willing to be lured into that game.
Oh totally, I'm a complete loser in real life, and I'm constantly a scumbag. It does mean nothing, it's just a stupid song by a stupid band at the end of the day. Because it uses symbolism doesn't mean anything except that we were really good at marketing and tricking people into thinking our songs had some deep meaning. It's not important in the grand scheme of anything, I'd be pretending if I told you it meant anything significant whatsoever.
Sure, practiced it really, really well. Practiced reading up on all the popular occult books so that those gullible enough to believe in this nonsense would buy the albums ;-)
I think the occult is stupid, meaningless, a dead end, and a complete waste of time. However, I know that it's trendy, so I wrote lots of lyrics about it ;)
Best track on this album. If this doesn't make you question your reality, your are a smoothbrain.
Ill never quit listening to it. Im 50 and I listen to hard rock/metal as much now as I did when I was 12.
Keep rocking on brother!
this song helped me conquer my fear of heights last winter as I am a construction worker and was scared to death of heights I smoked a bowl of 5-meo-dmt jammed this song and heights aint scared me since love this song
My favorite Black Pyramid tune.
Something about this song, is a truth that my mind simply cannot wrap itself around.
Sleep and Sabbath may have done it before, but neither one ever played anything like the middle sections of this song. This is as good as it gets.
This is an amazing work of art
Very underrated band,,hopefully i will get to see them live one day
They don't disappoint actual got this split lp at their show
I'm loving this maybe too much.....what the hell am I saying, there's no too much for such an awesome song :D
Thank Sabbath for stuff like this.
These guys seem to have done to Sabbath tunes, what Mazda did with the Wankel rotary engine. Kudos ..... More addictive than anything I can imagine...hooked
hooked for shure
Open your eyes, embrace illumination
Cast off the night in your soul
Dreams in the sky, warns indignation
Rest in red temples of old
Spear in your side, seal of oblivion
Expel the thorn in your brain
High priest resides, over the reptilian
Masters of fate's finest pain
Wouldn't you like to take my place?
Wouldn't you like to have my face?
Wouldn't you love to see me fall to earth?
Maybe you'll get to have your chance,
Maybe you'll daze me with your glance.
Maybe we'll find out what we're finally worth.
Step towards the light, embrace illumination
Grasp at the key in the fire
Third eye in sight, predicts our salvation
Call out the seer as a liar
Tongues of the lark, doomsday communion
Burn your three gods in the fire
Sign of the dark, adepts reunion
Dispels the falsest desire
Wouldn't you like to take my place?
Wouldn't you like to have my place?
Wouldn't you love to see me fall to earth?
Maybe you'll get to have your chance,
Maybe you'll gaze me with your glance.
Maybe we'll finally find out what we're worth.
Killers will die, demons damnation
Spirits the victim three fold.
Frozen in time, the birth of a nation
White churches sleep in the cold.
Gouge out your eyes, reject your existence
Slaughter the lamb and the youth
World in the sky, glimpse of resistance
Beyond black temples of truth...
Wouldn't you like to take my place?
Wouldn't you like to have my face?
Wouldn't you love to see me fall to earth?
Maybe you'll get to have your chance.
Maybe you'll daze me with your glance,
Maybe we'll find out what we're finally worth...
God, I love this song.
I'm totally taken ah back by their heavy medieval sound and lyrics - makes me wanna mount my steed and ride off into the fading light! D00M 0N!
ExcellenT !! The true message music of the age...
The new Black Pyramid 2014 album with the reformed lineup will have an extended track just as epic as this one
Black Pyramid - Love it!
Palace in Thunderland - Love it!
Common thread - Andy B.
Conclusion - Andy, make some more damn music!
***** Making tons of new music man....the latest Palace In Thunderland album is out, we're working on another new album, and also a split 12". Glad you dig it!!
Palace in Thunderland Thanks guys! Already got Afterglow, cant wait for more!
Cool, glad that you're hip to the fact that new shit has come to light.
@@oldcratch Hopefully you also picked up the split with the W Likes and The King of the Empty Aeon?
Also, we've recorded a new Black Pyramid album that will hopefully be released soon-ish. It's called "The Paths of Time Are Vast."
20,000 tons of awesome.
Masterpiece !
Black Pyramid is playing this song live in their 2014 set
All uploads are limited to 15 mins now. It's up on iTunes to download along with Warswine.
It's a damned shame we aren't going to ever hear Black Pyramid songs like this anymore. New material they have up just does not have the epic qualities and melodies because without Andy writing they just can't duplicate what is now missing from the formula that makes there songs so meaningful and memorable.

@@andyberesky4425The Quantum Phoenix is a titanic slab of doom metal. \m/ \m/
this song is very good for falling asleep to
Just remembered we also changed and stripped down another riff in the middle section when Clay brought it to my attention that it sounded too much like a Mastodon riff...
can I ask how you were able to get all 15mins into one file?
Kick-Ass song, can't seem to buy the bloody thing anywhere though!
I totally want a t-shirt with that image on it.
Hello, moi je craque sur le morceau qui est joué à la 8ème minutes environ mais je ne sais pas le titre si quelqu'un le connait merci de m'en informer !
What tuning do these guys use on their guitars?
@robbietempleton check the old one website
cooooooooool :)
You should just be happy you get to hear anything more at all.
Im not sure if this is good for my hangover

This song is great!, id like to find the lyrics though, im pretty sure its about putting down the illuminati isnt it?
@eyehatehippies666 And what about you, will you sing in another bandm another project or something?I really "liked" your voice man :(
Yes, I wrote the lyrics.
Please give some hints to understand and appreciate the lyrics in a deeper sense. Thanks.

fuckin awesome
@eyehatehippies666 OK than, you're a great ordinary guy.
I think you very well could of made him famous when you said that.
if you think the studio recording is good, do not miss the chance to be pummeled by them. they will kick your ass to valhalla.

На "Сектор Газа"смахивает (как нажрался я вчера,пили с ночи до утра),а так музло даже очень ничего.👍
way to dodge my question.. dood i'm done talkin to you. go record more music.
If you think that, then you probably didn't practice it well or didn't practice at all.
so u guys study the occult right? lol..
doomsday communion

So bootleg one. Easy enough to make yourself these days. You could even sell it to some other people and make some cash.
