This song is so fucking epic!! The vocalist has such powerful and diverse vocal styles, the guitar sound is so full even though it's just one guitar, and the drummer is just perversely good... The songs are epic and majestic!! I think this gotta be my favorite black metal band except Emperor!
Epicness as its highest possible level ! And some wicked sick drumming. Since im a drummer myself, I can tell this song might be goddamn hard, if not hardest one from KOK to perform live! 5/5
couldn't find them either, although they were partially posted on the KoK forums, they had a little contest to see who could guess the growly parts (such as 1:35), and people got close to guessing all the unknown parts.
Holy fuck! 03.13 and onwards until ~4.20.. my, my... That is so brutal and so beautiful at the same time. That sends a chill down my spine which almost ends up with my spine actually leaving my body...
Love how the verse and bridge(?) guitar riff scales actually sounds like power metal, but it's picked like 100% faster ! Am I the only one who can seperate some power metal influence in their music?
also this song makes me think of some ROBLOX game scene where it shows that Satan is gonna reclaim his throne and revert everything in that ROBLOX game back to the old days because Satan thinks it's better in those days
to this day I still have this album as my least favorite from them. dunno why I just cant listen to it beyond two or three songs unlike Armada, Reptilian and Epistemology. Not a big fan of their earliest stuff either although Agnen was the first album I heard from them. Just my opinion I know majority love their older stuff more and this album too but to me it is the least awesome one they made (still cool)

The album cover looks like an Elder Scrolls game.
Because it was inspired by Oblivion, check some interviews from that era.
@@milospanic12 That's... disappointing.

Uh jeah, same here.
Unfortunately, i was late for the concert, so i only enjoyed them for about... 15 mins^^
I've met em!! and got a big badass armada poster signed haha
Amazing this may not be the old Keep of Kalessin but this still pretty strong and awesome.\,,/
Wow double bass.... This rules
couldn't find them either, although they were partially posted on the KoK forums, they had a little contest to see who could guess the growly parts (such as 1:35), and people got close to guessing all the unknown parts.
WOW, this is really a good band! :D
wow this osng is amazing
This music is fucking great!!! Im so proud to be from the same town as them :D
indeed, especcialy when you seen them live!
Great song and great album. It's amazing how being the worst album of the new formation, Kolossus is still an amazing work.
YOU CANT RESIST ME, OPEN THE GATEEEES
Recommend some!
Yeah. that's what i think of too

@tetsuyanamamura you would most likely have to order it dude, few stores offer black metal albums.. Let alone best buy haha
Here after watching Daernerys destroy King’s Landing
I love their new style too. But I think that, just for the nostalgia, their next album should sound like Agnen.
this is Epic black metal actually :P they take their inspiration from a book ^^ but still its fucking awesome
Meeting these guys tonight in Aalborg \m/
@Lukelikeslemon Cradle of Filth used to be Black metal. Cant deny that.
the part that begins around 4:20 is awesome yet kinda scary
# 1
note that 7:16 is the end of the music
also this song makes me think of some ROBLOX game scene where it shows that Satan is gonna reclaim his throne and revert everything in that ROBLOX game back to the old days because Satan thinks it's better in those days
Paid $3.00 for this record and it did not disappoint!!
yeah i havent found them either
@tetsuyanamamura How about the most obvious choice: Amazon...?
where can I find their albums?
I can't find squat at Best Buy!
people are right about new Satyricon eating shit but this dominates!
Don't mistake this as black metal, this is extreme metal.
Yes, but I mean live also. Most of the time he uses nearly all the strings, so it's like you can hear melodies, but yet heavy notes beneath.
this is fucken sick this bands the shit
@AresNaC haha, good guess. But no, he's Vegar Larsen
llol, Feed the Trolls!
yea it sounds a little bit different
this song is way too good for the ridiculous comment feed it spawned.
am i the only one here that Gojira reminds him Keep of Kalessin..?!
@flex0rz2 Anything else you want to say?
these comments have less sense than the wheel of morality of the animaniacs
Correcting myself :P Its Epic Extreme Metal according to the drummer :-)
@whitechapelmusic123 I CAN'T BELIEVE WHAT I JUST READ!!
yea so
@flex0rz2 i'm sure you meant to say
happy ass rampage cigarette drug mosh music
ok i guess i don't then
from 7:16-10:10 Enjoy the silence? or what?

im going to do a bass/vocal cover of this pretty soon, do i have any supporters?
ok i guess
Is that why you came here?
Awesome EXTREME METAL song !! Not BLACK METAL . Through times of war is the only BLACK METAL album of KOK .
honestly this is the only good black metal band.
then you dont know what black metal is
In denial of your own sexuality, I see?
Honestly, you need to do some serious homework, pal.
