+aporia82 Definitely! Slower drumming is actually very tricky. Have you watched the "Symphony For The Lost" DVD? The drummer loses the beat at the beginning of "Victims Of The Past". I'm not criticizing him; in fact, the song's intro is so slow it's very easy to lose the pace.
+stonerdemon Very monotonous drummer, I'd say. If you compare with Lee Morris (any fill or riff - just try that bloody bouncy one in 'Hallowed Land') or Matthew Archer (fills for 'As I Die', 'Gothic' and so many more), Erlandsson is in a coma...
Песня хорошая. Гитары прекрасны. Гроул зашел туда, куда надо. Ничего не криво. Можно в плейлист сохранить. Подарили миру красоту дума....Неожиданный возврат к истокам! Брависсимо🎉
I heard this song in one of my daily Spotify playlists. And I couldn’t remeber the name or band. I’ve been scrolling through every Spotify and UA-cam playlist possible for hours. I finally found it on Spotify. I’m beyond ecstatic right now
One of the best song I have ever heard!! The climate words and the hypnotic voice gives me goose bumps every time I hear this song, great beyond reality
@@victorkhatkevich6429 Yeah, go ahead and explain what the difference between doomened death metal and deathened doom metal is. Nobody likes a busybody drawer defining metalhead, not even a busybody drawer defining metalhead.
Production is the best ever. Drums and guitars sound big and clear. This is why I bought a nice stereo and big speakers. They sound like they are in the room with me. So massive.
Oooh come on. Low fi is for black metal losers that pretend to be "trve". Why do you think there is studio headphones like AKG? Just to hear all the awful details?
I'm with you man...I loved paradise lost since I read a review of lost paradise in Kerrang or something, the idea of metal played so slow grabbed me, I stopped listening after icon...didn't like the direction but this....this is me being a sombre long haired teenager again, love it.
Exactly.. I was lucky to see them in 1996 at donnington Monsters of Rock.. thank The metal Gods that they have returned to what is Pure Paradise Lost!!
Lyrics Before us the King As lifeless hearts sink Before us lays dreams A light no one sees Hail to nothingness You wish to die Hail to Godliness You wish to die Ungodliest ones The circle is done Ungodliest ones Hail to nothingness You wish to die Hail to Godliness You wish to die Before us the King Our lifeless hearts sink Before us beneath A light no one sees
It's just slighly over the population of Finland so it's not that much. Even if a more extreme band like Behemoth releases it's album it goes straight to #1. I turned into metal in the confirmation camp through Sepultura's Chaos A.D. album. Metal is mainstream here. And I'm sure there are many other videos here with this song, not just this one and also many more on other platforms so I would not be worried.
egioch Ha ha ha, I know what you mean mate. Although I do love the newer albums of PL, I much prefer the older material and this takes me back to them times. I doubt they will ever top the Gothic album though, but I do hope they prove me wrong.
FixxxerZ7 it's kind of pointless to discuss, tastes differ, I still bought an album after "One Second" (not really remember which) and I don't remember what it was like. I completely lost interest in PL music and enjoy only "Gothic", "Shades of God" and "Icon". It doesn't mean other records are bad, I just do not enjoy that kind of music. And I am glad that it looks like I can enjoy their music again.
maddoggg59 haha I love the Gothic album. Such a great collection of songs. Also loved Shades of God. Gradually went a bit south after that for me though.
Отвечаю мурашки по коже, на руках волосы дыбом. Песня просто шедевр, хотя я вообще никогда рок не слушал, особенно металл и не разбираюсь в нем вообще. Но то что я прослушал и в целом песни группы заслуживают особого почета и респекта в моей душе. Дай бог здоровья этим исполнителям!
Когда впервые услышал это творение - то просто не поверил своим ушам! Гениальнейшее произведение в своей минималистичности - нет ничего лишнего, и ничего не хотелось бы добавить!
Only those who, like me, has followed ALL the path, the beginning until today, can comprehend, understand, enjoy and LOVING, the greatness of this IMMENSE, unique and beautiful band. There are no words to describe the majesty and the immensity of Paradise Lost, if not listening, plunging deep the own soul, this group. Unique sensations and magnificent by 25 years
Check out Faith Divides Us - Death Unites Us (album, not song). That was the strongest PL since Gothic and Lost Paradise imo. Then Plague, Meduda and Obsidian came out and dropped Faith in my list to 6th.
This is Paradise Lost coming back to who they truly are but I have surprisingly enjoyed everything they have done since 1993. Through all of their changes and experimentations, I discovered parts of myself that I would not have realized otherwise. Thanks, Paradise Lost!
+voice of amos I'll try to explain but it will only be head knowledge to you until you experience it for yourself on a personal level, only then, will it will sink into your soul and become heart knowledge and then you will truly know... Go out and eat some kind of food you've never had before or date a girl who is outside of the parameters of your personal preference or play a sport that you've never given any thought to, or... etc, etc. You will learn very little about those things/people you experience but you will learn a lot about yourself. This is what Paradise Lost has done in their journey as a band I have discovered parts of myself that I would never have know existed otherwise and I love them for it. I hope this answers your question. Thanks!
@@johnhenrywillis2961 Give me a break. David used to drive out evil spirits from King Saul by playing beautiful music on his lyre. And as JC once said, a house devided can't stand.

well I see that it's about darkness entities perception of the light, the sourse of creation coming from higher realms.....I mean when the circle is done that means the first god's step in creation by the sacred geometry so darkness take its role and wish to die
+Souhaib Trabelsi or more like it speaks about our current political situation where the pretenders play their hands and blame it on something completely different. all the chaos panic and destruction have been laid and our leaders fail to gurantee our safety even in our own homes. houses been set to fire and those who lost their favorite ones in the flames has nothing to look up to and live for. the higer power can't do anything about it but to sit and wait, and the evil that lurks in the shade of daylight does no less than wreck more havoc on the weak and just smile and wave
La conocí en un comercial de UA-cam en el 2015-2016. Pero me encantó su energía y escencia. Además, estaba pasando por un proceso de adaptación de un nuevo trabajo distinto a lo que normalmente hacía. Su energía me ayudó a sentirme en confianza. Y hoy la vuelvo escuchar por la misma razón. Excelente canción!!! Saludos
Quite simply, the best Paradise Lost album in years. One that combines the intensity of Shades Of God with the untamed blare of Gothic and the suppleness of Draconian Times. These are high-grade compositions, well served by producer Gomez's heavy hand. The Plague Within serves as a reminder that not only did Pardise Lost create the blueprint for gothic metal, but they still do it brilliantly.
This is the only band in history that goes on for 30 years if not more... and have tryed all styles and types of rock and metal. From pure rock to death metal... Amazing !!!
omg. NICK . this is the peak of his career. it seems that work with bloodbath made him realizes that paradise lost should sound as it was planed..two and a half decades ago. well done gentlemen.
Imagine the world is crumbling, collapsing into the void of a black hole or a gigantic asteroid makes its approach on Earth. This would be the perfect soundtrack for it. Bleak thunderous riffs, hammering drums and a gargantuan voice chanting humanity's end. One of my favorite songs ever.
В 16 году увидел новый их альбом. Не раздумывая купил, т. к. Уже читал рецензию. Пришёл домой, поставил в CD. После первых аккордов крутанул ручку в усилке и сел посередине системы. Так и не смог встать с пола......... В дум-дэт лучшего я не слышал......
This feels like it should be the UK national anthem right now. "before us the king, As lifeless hearts sink" our ruling elite ruining our country as we grow ever more apathetic with every atrocity.
в свои 40, не думал что что то еще может меня ошеломить. но вы ребята это сделали. вы взорвали мой мир. спасибо вам большое за эту как минимум песню. старая школа еще может. в моем сердце это останется навсегда.
Привет, старики. Мне 46 ..первый альбом лостов услышал когда мне было 20-21.. а потом вышел " Икона". И тут я влюбился в их музыку, и эта любовь с годами только крепнет, как выдержанный коньяк.
Can't understand the people who disliked this song ; probably ur life is getting good or u never feel deeply depressed , maybe never felt witch you must have had the feeling of being far away from the place u deserve or dream in the future, life hurts everyone when i listen this song i felt like I face the boredom and the pain I endure.. whatever think i am u had the reason to listen or not best regards to all of you
Totally agree with you. Generally I'm not so into the more death-influenced PL but this is a gloomy, doomy masterpiece, I definitely feel it, it's hard not to be moved by this, especially if you've been in those deep dark places as you say. Best regards.
BENEATH BROKEN EARTH Before us the King As lifeless hearts sink Before us lays dreams A light no one sees Hail to nothingness You wish to die Hail to Godliness You wish to die Ungodliest ones The circle is done Ungodliest ones Hail to nothingness You wish to die Hail to Godliness You wish to die Before us the King Our lifeless hearts sink Before us beneath A light no one sees
Это лучшее что я нашел . Ничего мощнее и откровеннее я не слышал. Это твердыня, основа. Это утверждение нового базиса. Это как крепость. Незыблемость и верность до конца.
As always Paradise Lost is a great band!!! With this track they got back to their roots..... Definitely they are the fathers of Doom Metal.... Greetings from Ecuador!! LAGO GRIS, our gothic metal band from Ecuador!!!
+Shakir Ahmad You are like me.. I have seen them live twice in Sweden 93 and 94. But this gives me goosebumps all the same.. Guess it´s love. They are back!
This gives me hope that bands like In Flames will eventually go back to what they do best. Weird how so many bands return to the concepts and ideas that made them great. Welcome back PL!
cyanenscens Really? It might have been a bit more professional sounding but Tragic Idol had been put through the loudness machine. Still love those albums too though.
heres johnny personally I hate the loudness war in Tragic Idol. When I listen to PL songs in random order every time a song from Tragic Idol pops up it sounds way much louder than the others
heres johnny You see... In my case, I think that the kick is pumping the other elements in the mix. Such a pity. That ruins the whole experience to me.
And the cycle is done.Thank you PL for all your wonderful albums,thank you for influencing me so greatly and thank you for helping me so much in my darkest times.
Emotionally always deep and professional music. Have been following PL's works since the beginning and have never been disappointed. True hard riffs for the real life-long hard rock/metal hearts. Amazing job guys!
This is a genuine return to the roots and that is why they sound great! It was not written just because of nostalgia. Not sure how many bands of their generation can do the same! Αγαπάμε μπαντάρα!
You need to read it with the rest of the paragraph, which says "Before us lays dreams". If you put a comma it makes more sense: "Before us, the King; Before us, (he) lays dreams"
LYRICS: Before us the King 𒀭 As lively hearts rise Before us lay dreams A light we all see Hail to existence You wish to live Hail to Godliness You wish to live Godliest ones The circle is done Godliest ones Hail to existence You wish to live Hail to Godliness You wish to live Before us the King 𒀭 Our lively hearts rise Before us above A light we all see
Not an easy song to listen to. But once you "get" it... it's an absolute Masterpiece! Amazing singing by Nick and Gregor creates those incredible sad melodies... Awesome song!
Hail to the ultimate musicians ... Hail to the feeling...the fog that covers us all ... Hail to the words that spread sorrow... Hail to the best metal band of the 90s that still makes masterpieces... You where our shadow in our youth , you still shadow us till now ... Greetings from Athens , a place that always will love you.
I love every single Paradise Lost album, and I love nearly all their B-sides and bonus tracks. Heck, a lot of their remixes are great! By far my all time favourite metal band. I even love Believe In Nothing! Unfairly maligned... Now for this song...goosebumps!
My sentiment exactly,I can listen to this song then Say just words, then The painless then year of summer without any problem.. Got all their albums, they made me love depeche mode (walk away) and funeral doom bands
I remember back in 1996 when I started jamming to this band. My friends had never heard of them. I'd play their music while they were over. I loved their Gothic sounds. I haven't listened to them in years
Drummer should be awarded with the nobel prize. One of the hardest drum rhythm I've ever heard. So easy to lose control.
+aporia82
Check out the drumming on Obscura's Omnivium CD.
+aporia82 Definitely! Slower drumming is actually very tricky. Have you watched the "Symphony For The Lost" DVD? The drummer loses the beat at the beginning of "Victims Of The Past". I'm not criticizing him; in fact, the song's intro is so slow it's very easy to lose the pace.

Everytime when i feel life hopeless. So, everyday. 😢

Youre in for a treat! I just got the urge to come back for a listen myself
I know this feeling too well
This is the best Paradise Lost song to date. Not many bands can do that 25 years in.
One of the best song I have ever heard!! The climate words and the hypnotic voice gives me goose bumps every time I hear this song, great beyond reality
This is the ONE song you name your friend to listen to if he asks you to explain doom metal.
It's a doom death metal, doom metal contains only clean vocal.
@@victorkhatkevich6429 Yeah, go ahead and explain what the difference between doomened death metal and deathened doom metal is.
Nobody likes a busybody drawer defining metalhead, not even a busybody drawer defining metalhead.
Production is the best ever. Drums and guitars sound big and clear. This is why I bought a nice stereo and big speakers. They sound like they are in the room with me. So massive.
So many give bands shit because they up their production, but I share your viewpoint exactly.
Oooh come on. Low fi is for black metal losers that pretend to be "trve". Why do you think there is studio headphones like AKG? Just to hear all the awful details?
The essence of Lost Paradise, Gothic and Icon wrapped in a 6m masterpiece. So unexpected, it gets me back to the 90's instantly. The circle is done!
yes, exactly. At that time it was just a revolution in metal music...
Shades of God is the best, by far. It is the last truly dark album of theirs from that period, and it is well written and recorded
so fukin true
I'm with you man...I loved paradise lost since I read a review of lost paradise in Kerrang or something, the idea of metal played so slow grabbed me, I stopped listening after icon...didn't like the direction but this....this is me being a sombre long haired teenager again, love it.
Exactly.. I was lucky to see them in 1996 at donnington Monsters of Rock.. thank The metal Gods that they have returned to what is Pure Paradise Lost!!
Sound engineer: How heavy would you like it?
Paradise Lost: Yes.
That basically sums it up. For a bit I felt like it's 1993 again and I can't think of a better review, really.
Guitarist: Plays random notes for warmup.
Producer: (already making a song out of it)
Lyrics
Before us the King
As lifeless hearts sink
Before us lays dreams
A light no one sees
Hail to nothingness
You wish to die
Hail to Godliness

Hail to nothingness
You wish to die
Hail to Godliness

This song is the definition of Doom Metal!
paradise lost and type o negative do this for decades...
I would rather add My Dying Bride along with Paradise Lost, instead of type o negative
@@seelenwinter6662 wtf type o?? this is paradise lost. The trinity of doom metal is Paradise lost, Anathema and My Dying Bride.

Yep. Too bad it's a big Gorguts' "Clouded" ripoff though...

And what a diverse range they have too. Doom Metal, Death Metal, Gothic Rock, Post Punk, Gothic Metal.

Ungodliest ones
The circle is done
Ungodliest ones
Hail to nothingness
You wish to die
Hail to Godliness
You wish to die
Before us the King
Our lifeless hearts sink
Before us beneath
A light no one sees
Это лучшее что я нашел . Ничего мощнее и откровеннее я не слышал. Это твердыня, основа. Это утверждение нового базиса. Это как крепость. Незыблемость и верность до конца.
в армии успел послужить?

You are doing outstanding music. Thank you for returning to roots, to true music. I believe in you.
As always Paradise Lost is a great band!!!
With this track they got back to their roots.....
Definitely they are the fathers of Doom Metal....
Greetings from Ecuador!!
LAGO GRIS, our gothic metal band from Ecuador!!!
goosebumps! all over! listened to this a thousand times but never ended up commenting...
+Shakir Ahmad You are like me.. I have seen them live twice in Sweden 93 and 94. But this gives me goosebumps all the same.. Guess it´s love. They are back!
you, sir, are lucky!
Brutal, Slow und Überragend . Ich liebe es und ich liebe diese Band.
This is simply the best PL song since 1995 - or even 1993 ❤🔥
What a way to restore the good old Paradise lost!!! I,m in love again!!
This was my first PL song, the beginning of a journey.
you know this is actually good music.
This gives me hope that bands like In Flames will eventually go back to what they do best. Weird how so many bands return to the concepts and ideas that made them great. Welcome back PL!
Maideneer will anathema return to their roots?
arcturuz78 No idea, this world is full of surprises! Thankfully My Dying Bride never left and are the clear all-time winners in this genre.
arcturuz78 old anathema = duncan patterson
only if this gifted guy will join them again
Maideneer 34.788% complete?
***** my diyng b. ??,????
This album could be a PL classic. So glad the production is much warmer too, the last album was brickwalled to fuck. This is much more powerful.
heres johnny I liked the production of Tragic Idol much better than Faith Divides Us...
cyanenscens Really? It might have been a bit more professional sounding but Tragic Idol had been put through the loudness machine. Still love those albums too though.
heres johnny personally I hate the loudness war in Tragic Idol. When I listen to PL songs in random order every time a song from Tragic Idol pops up it sounds way much louder than the others
heres johnny You see... In my case, I think that the kick is pumping the other elements in the mix. Such a pity. That ruins the whole experience to me.
Pablo César López Custodio Not a fan of loudness in general.
The old Paradise Lost is finally back again.
And the cycle is done.Thank you PL for all your wonderful albums,thank you for influencing me so greatly and thank you for helping me so much in my darkest times.
Nick Holmes se asomó al fondo de su garganta, se lanzó al abismo y nos trajo este tema. Bendito sea.
What a lullaby!My 3 y.o. son like this song so much!Thank for the greatest music🤘
🤣🤣🤣
Це, буз сумніву, геніальна композиція. Еталонний представник жанру. Моє шанування
I saw them live two days ago. I can definitely say that it was the best live show I've ever watched
amazing guitar sound. straight up into the sky. I'm just flying away from this music!!!
Emotionally always deep and professional music. Have been following PL's works since the beginning and have never been disappointed. True hard riffs for the real life-long hard rock/metal hearts. Amazing job guys!
without a doubt one of the best songs of the fucking history! when I listen to it again after a while I inevitably cry, fucking legends!
This is a genuine return to the roots and that is why they sound great! It was not written just because of nostalgia. Not sure how many bands of their generation can do the same! Αγαπάμε μπαντάρα!
Before us the king.....
...its a hard song..but Paradise is aperfect..:)
I didn't know you listened to doom metal unit thats awesome lol keep up the great work btw🤘
You need to read it with the rest of the paragraph, which says "Before us lays dreams". If you put a comma it makes more sense: "Before us, the King; Before us, (he) lays dreams"
LYRICS:
Before us the King 𒀭
As lively hearts rise
Before us lay dreams
A light we all see
Hail to existence
You wish to live
Hail to Godliness
You wish to live
Godliest ones
The circle is done
Godliest ones
Hail to existence
You wish to live
Hail to Godliness
You wish to live
Before us the King 𒀭
Our lively hearts rise
Before us above
A light we all see
Pierwszy raz kumpel zapoznał mnie z Paradisem w latach 90,podstawówka,zajebista muza
Wow.. this just blows my mind. Blasting the speakers in my car🖤🖤🖤
I love than low pitched vocal and wish more of their songs were like that.
Listen to Medusa, it came out after this album.
Not an easy song to listen to. But once you "get" it... it's an absolute Masterpiece! Amazing singing by Nick and Gregor creates those incredible sad melodies... Awesome song!
How could this be not an easy song to listen to.... this is the easiest song ever to listen to
Hail to the ultimate musicians ... Hail to the feeling...the fog that covers us all ...
Hail to the words that spread sorrow...
Hail to the best metal band of the 90s that still makes masterpieces...
You where our shadow in our youth , you still shadow us till now ...
Greetings from Athens , a place that always will love you.
New-Old Paradise Lost, I love it
The true metal style!!! It was before 1995 year. Incredible old school performance!!!
One of the greatest songs and videos
This song is so beautiful 🖤
Toujours épique ce morceau... Il grandit d'année en année !
I just keep coming back to this song. Awesome as is the album it is from
Don’t know how I found this song.. but it gives me the chills 🥶🥶
I love every single Paradise Lost album, and I love nearly all their B-sides and bonus tracks. Heck, a lot of their remixes are great! By far my all time favourite metal band. I even love Believe In Nothing! Unfairly maligned...
Now for this song...goosebumps!
My sentiment exactly,I can listen to this song then Say just words, then The painless then year of summer without any problem..
Got all their albums, they made me love depeche mode (walk away) and funeral doom bands
Did they do a "bad" album once?
Great band and they age very well...
Just watched them performing this song Live yesterday. This was a cathartic experience.
I remember back in 1996 when I started jamming to this band. My friends had never heard of them. I'd play their music while they were over. I loved their Gothic sounds.
I haven't listened to them in years
Aonde eu estava que não conhecia essa obra-prima? Música foda, congratz from Brasil.
