For those who wanna learn this song, I'm making this comment to make it more convenient to get back to the beginning of each section, as opposed to skipping back 10 seconds or splitting hairs with the time bar. Band enters 0:07 Paradiddle-diddle 0:14 Main riff intro 0:28 Intro key change 0:42 Verse 0:56 Pre-chorus 1:23 Chorus 1:50 (just repeat the paradiddle-diddle section) Post-chorus 2:04 (main riff) Solo 2:18 Bridge 2:32
@nickb2510 The tuning I'd use is C# standard, so Bbm would be rooted 5th string 4th fret, etc. Use inverted power chords whenever and wherever you can. Much of the song is built on Bbm, Fm, Db, Ab (pay very close attention to the inversions). The key change at the beginning goes to Ebm, so the chords are Eb5, Ab(b5), Eb5, Ab(b6), with an octave harmony lead line on top, then transitions back to Bbm. The verse chords are Bb5, F5, Gb5, Ab5. The pre-chorus is Bbm, Bbsus2, Db5, C5 (pay attention to the syncopations between these power chords). The solo and bridge are Bb5, Db5, Ebm, Ebsus2 (there's some more syncopation stuff you'll need to figure out with the Eb stuff. Just listen closely). If you wanna play the actual solo, make sure you pay close attention to what the Eb parts are doing. Repeat everything from the key change, omit the solo and bridge upon the repeat. Edit: make sure you're paying close attention to all the chord inversions throughout the song. Some are in root position, but most aren't.
There was a flash of lightning, Followed by snow In a moment of silence (for myself), After a shock to the soul With a look of disbelief, Alone and numb to the cold I knew the last moment had passed, Before enduring years of sorrow There was a crack of electric light, coming down from a darkened sky My dreams flashed before my eyes, as they were erased from my life. There was a flash of lightning, Followed by snow Twas just the moment of change, Before years of sorrow The shock and awe, the fright and woe I only had one life to live, and life said no. The loss of love, has left me hollow All bliss twists into pain, Where there was joy, years of grief have followed! There was a flash of lightning, followed by snow It struck my heart, only once... which made me want it more The emptiness it left in me, will always need to be filled For it will be there all the time, from now on, forever more. There was a crack of electric light, coming down from a darkened sky My dreams flashed before my eyes, AS they were erased from my life. There was a flash of lightning, Followed by snow Twas just a moment of pain, Before years of sorrow The shock and awe, the fright and woe And when I asked for a second chance, life said no.

Hate to tell ya this my friend, but the singer to this song passed away many years ago, so they decided not to go further after that. Sad, because I’m sure they would’ve made much more. But rest to David ❤.
@TheKing-dm3br I doubt it. Some musicians have far too much influence on what makes their band so great. Without David this band would suffer far too greatly. Better off starting completely fresh as a new entity
Ok I like this band but I’m not crazy about the black metal singer sometimes I kinda wish they just have David gold sing all the time but that’s just me I didn’t write the music but I guess I can get past that because I do like the band and being a big fan of type o neative this is very similar but one question how do singers sing like this without getting a sore or scratchy throat from singing like this I could never sing like that without getting one
Many singers grow used to it and the technique of growls(the screaming) mainly focuses on the use of the diaphragm not so much your throat. David is the singer of the screaming as well, he did every vocal exept in the original EP Woods released. However, when they used to play live the bass player also did growls for when there were two voices.
It's all about practice and technique. you can certainly hurt yourself doing them incorrectly. But you gotta test your limits and find a sweet spot. Practice their and then branch out slowly.
@@nicoloenricorimoldi7425 sounds about right. I'm sure Yearning were Type O Negative fans too. All three bands are similar. And all three frontmen are dead. I think Yearning are the best.
@@Aenigmakil I prefer Type O, but Yearning's great, too. Plaintive Scenes and Evershade are rock solid albums. Juhani Palomäki's other band Colossum is even better; the best Funeral Doom band to ever do it, in my eyes.
@@nicoloenricorimoldi7425 you have good taste! I love Colosseum but prefer Yearning (because the cleans mixed with growls is my favourite dynamic in melancholic music). Colosseum are definitely the best funeral doom band though. Chapter II ahhh 🖤
This band is way too underrated
Agreed
тоже согласен
Agreed man absolutely a fantastic band
By who?
Couldn’t agree more
I hate myself for discovering these guys just now. Rip Mr Gold
Only song by them i've heard, but it's compelled me to purchase a shirt, and the CD.
@@AlexH4774 You gotta listen I was buried in Mount Pleasant cemetary
@@maulros dirty window of opportunity
I wish I had the opportunity to see them live. I will always love this band, especially this song ❤
Really love this song RIP David.

If you've never experienced "thunder snow" you've really been alive. The power and beauty are something that will change you.
:O I havent. And now I really want to.
Experienced it on the side of a mountain at 14-thousand feet years ago. It was as you said.
Saw it last year and it was something else for sure....makes this song hit different
I finally saw it during a michigan snowstorm! The whole sky lit up blue green!
Buffalo NY gets it
Years of Sorrow. RIP DAVID GOLD.
His death was so tragic.....
Cant help but imagine what wouldve been, had that not occurred...

damnly epic song
There was a flash of lightning, Followed by snow
In a moment of silence (for myself), After a shock to the soul
With a look of disbelief, Alone and numb to the cold
I knew the last moment had passed, Before enduring years of sorrow
There was a crack of electric light, coming down from a darkened sky
My dreams flashed before my eyes, as they were erased from my life.
There was a flash of lightning, Followed by snow
Twas just the moment of change, Before years of sorrow
The shock and awe, the fright and woe
I only had one life to live, and life said no.
The loss of love, has left me hollow
All bliss twists into pain, Where there was joy, years of grief have followed!
There was a flash of lightning, followed by snow
It struck my heart, only once... which made me want it more
The emptiness it left in me, will always need to be filled
For it will be there all the time, from now on, forever more.

my number 1 song of 2022...srsly
I came back a long time ago since I heard it I was happy it helped me a lot in the past
I love love love this song
REally makes you think that David went too early...
Lyrics
There was a flash of lightning
Followed by snow
In a moment of silence for myself
After a shock to the soul
With a look of disbelief
Alone and numb to the cold
I knew the last moment had passed
Before enduring years of sorrow
There was a crack of electric light
Coming down from a darkened sky
My dreams flashed before my eyes
As they were erased from my life
There was a flash of lightning
Followed by snow
'Twas just the moment of change
Before years of sorrow
The shock and awe
The fright and woe
I only had one life to live
And life said no
The loss of love
Has left me hollow
All bliss twists into pain
Where there was joy, years of grief have followed
There was a flash of lightning
Followed by snow
It struck my heart, only once
Which made me want it more
The emptiness it left in me
Will always need to be filled
For it will be there all the time
From now on, forever more
There was a crack of electric light
Coming down from a darkened sky
My dreams flashed before my eyes
As they were erased from my life
There was a flash of lightning
Followed by snow
'Twas just a moment of pain
Before years of sorrow
The shock and awe
The fright and woe
And when I asked for a second chance
Life said no
Hail kanonenfieber
This band is so amazing!
Best album they wrote and a great opener
fantastic!!
This song just takes my breath away! Absolutely love it. So gutted to have only just become a fan of this underrated band.
And when I asked for a second chance, life said no.
Damn this is amazing, i hope they never stop making music.

Sucks ill never see this live, love the energy in this song
I miss you Dave
If happiness was a man, this song would make him cry forever!
🤘🏻
🤘🏼❤️😢
The whole song is sung by one single person? Really?
...yes?
Why is that hard to believe
I highly suggest this song with the 'slowed' extension for chrome
I get Type O vibes slightly haha
I can dig that!
Yessss

Sounds like a not as interesting or emotional version of Yearning. It's cool though....
Sounds like a Type O Negative imitation to me.
