How you can still hear him yelling through the instrument mics after the mouth mics mute is simply chilling. This is truly one of the most exquisite recordings.
I said it before, I'll say it again: AO is perfect Medieval Metal! The way they've blended actual/historical Medieval tunes into their songs, lands them the top spot forever in this sub-genre - as far as I'm concerned! My two favorite styles of music married at last! Apocalypse Orchestra, you are my favorite band!

@@eleanorkennedy669 Yes,she is very talented,and beautiful and charming as well.Before I watched one of her videos,I really didn't know what a hurdy-gurdy even was. It's fascinating,I really want one,but they're probably so expensive.
Dude! That literally was the best song I have heard in quite some time...melodic tranquil...soul piercing..hollowed vocals with ripping metal and one FRIGGIN HuRdy Gurdy!!! Holy fricking wow guys! You have made one more fan this day!
When I found these guys I felt like chuck berry on the phone with his cousin in Back to the Future "you know that new sound you were looking for" this is it
UA-cam gets a lot of flak, but every once in awhile it does something good. UA-cam showed me this band today. UA-cam, you have done well. This music is powerful! This music is epic! And they have a hurdy-gurdy!
I was immediately hooked when I first heard the album, I keep coming back to you guys over and over, enjoying like it was the first time, I really hope you guys produce more music :)
Jeg tror jeg er enig i det. Ikke helt sikker at jeg forstår hva akkurat det er du mener, men... det har now a gjøre med at Apocalypse Orchestra er awesome, så det er godt
You guys are amazing. You are the best thing that happened to me this year, for real. I want to study scandinavian music and everytime i listen to you i want it even more! You are all so perfect and beautifull. Thank you for existing (Sorry for bad english)
I just finished listening to this album in it's entirety and all I can say it is the most hideously beautiful album I've heard. I do wish they would have don videos for Pure and Flagellant's song though. Best on the album in my opinion.
Who are these guys? Or where have I been? Never heard of this group before but they are AWESOME. Beautiful sound. Apocalypse Orchestra I'm going to have to start following you.
I just appreciate the fact they made a song about the end of civilization Via War while not cheating and using 1000 BPM, choosing to capture the sadness of it rather than the spectacle
Restless in the ravens roost…need a god to love the most..linger in time another beast another day of bloodless sleep..wait with me and watch the ravens sing of defiance…in this Theater of war!
I wish that pyre had a music video although what the song is about wouldn't be something easy to rollout into a video given today's climate but still wishful dreams. i love this song and the overall band sound🙈it just feels like they literally went back in time sample to make a fire album❤🔥
This is a band i realise i need to listen more and more. That voice is non comparable to any other singers i heard and it just feels so good. The music sounds really folk (thx captain obvious), so much that i'm nearly seeing me in a medieval church
Chicos, esto es lo mejor que eh escuchado en toda mi vida. Es un excelente trabajo, y en todo aspecto, la escenografía, la danza, los sonidos, ¡Todo!. Gracias por compartir todo esto. Saludos desde México :D
Just discovered these guys today. Saw them suggested after hearing Wind Rose - Diggy Diggy Hole for the first time cover too... My god! AO is heckin' incredible.
Is it just me or is this band seriously underrated?!
Vladares - I want to like your comment twice. I'm sad I can't.
I just "recently" came across these magnificent bastards. I cant help have them in every playlist.
Very much so!!
Yeah a lot of times. You can help and buy their music and merch.
@@bo0tsy1 I would so want to buy their music but for now I'm still not legally an adult and sadly I must do whatever my parents say so I can't spend money on merch and music.
Who’s here after the new album was announced? Can’t wait. You guys rock!!!!!
This song, still to this day gives me goosebumps! I'm excited for the new album. Can't wait!
They had me at the Hurdy-gurdy. This album is utterly fantastic.

David Findlay do you know more medieval bands like that?
@@andremachado745 Othalan has the medieval vibes, but they are singing in Polish, not English
What medieval music would you recommend me?
For me it is hard to choose my favorite between them an ensiferum :s

Ensiferum (The classic)
Wind Rose
TYR
Sabaton
Powerwolf

Audience gasping, horrified screams
Tears running down in endless streams
Humanity's lost, eclipsed by war
Apocalypse knocking on your front door
"So you are in a metal band -cool -what do you play?"
"hurdy-gurdy"
Anna Murphy, is that you ?
You deserve my like. Do you listen to Cellar Darling?
THIS is why I need a time machine. I'd go back and make sure I was there to witness this show
I'm so grateful I came across this band!!!!! ❤❤❤❤
I feel like I picked up a quest for watching this...
You did. BE FUCKING AWESOME! xD
No, my friend, you completed the quest and this was the reward.
Lol, great comment
Sir you indeed made my day a lovely one!

Perfect blend of doom metal and folk metal. Chilling, dark, beautiful. AO is becoming one of my new favorite bands

Sometimes you have to thank the algorithm for showing you greatness
If monks had metal in the 12th century this would be well known. The most epic instrument on Earth is the Hurdy Gurdy. I love to hear it sing!
The 11th century maybe, that was the beginning of the crusades.
Pontian lyra is even better than hurdy gurdy.
12 century metal, what an amazing thought! The Gurdy is a very beautiful instrument, have you ever come across Patty Gurdy?
They would be burned probably... for being "warlocks" afteral metal is work of devil.
/sarcasm off.
@@eleanorkennedy669 Yes,she is very talented,and beautiful and charming as well.Before I watched one of her videos,I really didn't know what a hurdy-gurdy even was. It's fascinating,I really want one,but they're probably so expensive.
This is not just music. This is an amazing art!
Who is still listening it in 2020 is a legend!
Isti oni koji slušaju tvoje omiljene,ajde molim te ,maskirao se malo bolje u profilu,pozdrav.M Notradame
Well, is there a better time to listen to a band called "Apocalypse Orchestra" than 2020?
This guy
Same here !!!
mabe ill get it right this time , im not a legend but i still listen,november 2020 rock on dude
Brilliantly executed. This defies genres. All music lovers can appreciate the delicious goodness of this.
rap people don't appreciate any real music
@@josephgeubtner rap can be just as good lyrically if artists would have half a brain like NF
@@mattr85 agree
Thats because you dont know Brazil. Hahaha
Girls says they dont like some songs cause "You cant dance it".
Absolutely intrigued; as always, still. 🌠
Here's where you want to be.
Only one album and it already is one of my favorite bands!
I know it's been about 3 years since this comment, but they're recording a new album now!
@@utbdoug thanks for letting me know!
@@DarkIacco I'm stoked to see what they've been working on!
A friend recommended this band, and I'm not disappointed at all
This music is incredibly close to all that I hold in my fragile bleeding heart. I love you for all that you are. ♡♡
Absolutely amazing! Pure folk-metal energy! Keep going on the same wave!!!
Folk Doom my friend.
Michael W Lam medieval folk my friend
They always have a doomy vibe imo, but with clean vocals. and I do like the older instrumentals.
@@gabrielottovordemgentschen5723 if you're gonna be nitpicky, it's medieval (folk) doom metal
There's others bands older than this one but the one I known there are from Spain to names some Mago de Oz, Tierra Santa, Saurom
I have been a musician my whole life, but this is the first time the music of any group has truly spoken to me.
Perfect. Вот такие и должны быть концерты!!! Они должны в нас побуждать созидательный чувства. Гордость за свои народ и культуру!!!
Yep. This is the medievil feeling I searched for. God I love it. I love it.
Dude! That literally was the best song I have heard in quite some time...melodic tranquil...soul piercing..hollowed vocals with ripping metal and one FRIGGIN HuRdy Gurdy!!! Holy fricking wow guys! You have made one more fan this day!
guess that means you like it
,,,,,looking for this sound for a years.....finally......I found myself!!!
I just started listening to Apocalypse Orchestra and they are fucking amazing and need to be heard.
One if not the greatest folk metal bands out today
Look into 2010ish eluveitie songs, but their new album from 2019 is good aswell
@@kawaiinda6252 Them are the ones that got me into folk metal
When I found these guys I felt like chuck berry on the phone with his cousin in Back to the Future "you know that new sound you were looking for" this is it

Bagpipe guy is playing hurdy on this one. I take he's the expert on unusual instruments :) Awesome song.
This band sings to my soul and makes fire surge through my veins..it’s incredible. What an outstanding work of art.
I am really happy my son showed this to me. They are amazing
So that one guy plays the bagpipes AND the hurdy? Crazy... Good job.
Apocalypse orchestra is the best happening to us since the fall of and the peace of
second world war.
Thank you guys.I appreatiate you.Åsbjörn.
Jeg tror jeg er enig i det. Ikke helt sikker at jeg forstår hva akkurat det er du mener, men... det har now a gjøre med at Apocalypse Orchestra er awesome, så det er godt
The part where it cuts to pure medieval instrumentals is incredible.
Still bangin to this 💪😃
Coming back to this song again and again, such a beautiful song and slow metal is such a cool concept of a band to do
The way they harmonize is like joy to my ears.
Love hearing a band that knows their craft, history, and are willing to go that extra mile. Well done guys, nice to hear something new and unique
OMG! I have bought CD after two videos of this band! They are awesome!!!!
When the woman holding fire in her hands came in, i couldn't hold my tears

Valentina Morales I think your English was perfect 👌
Bands like this are what keep me writing and fuel my ideas! Keep going guys!!!
The goosebumps on my goosebumps have goosebumps.
I believe that is referred to as *Checks notes* Geesebumps.
This band seriously needs more love.
After 5 years, the feeling is still the same!
So freaking good! These guys should be top of the charts.
Oh my god...
I just discovered you now and i love you already my men

I love this band so much. Love the Hurdygurdy, wonderful blend of instruments medieval folk metal at it's best. Can't wait for more of the same. ❤
I feel like I've always been waiting for this band. Please come to Kansas City.

Another absolutely bad ass song! Great work to all involved!
These guys are amazing. I can't believe I only got shown them a couple of weeks ago. Something very powerful about this tune.
I love this band, perfect for DnD background music
This... this is ART. Incredible
Need More of this kind of music. Please need More
Restless in the ravens roost…need a god to love the most..linger in time another beast another day of bloodless sleep..wait with me and watch the ravens sing of defiance…in this Theater of war!
Restless is the only thing that I can feel anymore…god won’t let me sleep anymore..another beast of the shadows of my mind
Ce groupe est une merveille.

It won't matter. 2020 is soon approaching. This song shall be relevant to me forever. Good job AO, I only wish there was more of you on UA-cam.
No.. not just you.. this band.. this collection.. this gathering.. we rise.. you have to understand this first.. its not for everyone...
This album is amazing. I highly recommend it.
This is state of the art of medieval metal! \m/ Thank you guys!
I love the epic feel of this band.
If AO should ever happen to be in Arizona I will be among the first to get a ticket. Love the music so much.
The best song on planet earth🖤
This is a band i realise i need to listen more and more.
That voice is non comparable to any other singers i heard and it just feels so good.
The music sounds really folk (thx captain obvious), so much that i'm nearly seeing me in a medieval church
Perfect. Here such and should be concerts !!! They must stimulate creative feelings in us. Pride in their people and culture !!!
Sadly they only made one album. This slow, almost depressive sound combined with mediaval instruments is unique.
Where the hell has this been hiding!!!! Bloody good!

Who doesn't want to be a modern hurdy-gurdy virtuoso??? These guys are epic, no joke there. Man though, I want to play D&D now!!!
Killer stuff!
I'm totally into Black Metal, but man... this band touches the soul.
I walk the streets proudly jamming this epic masterpiece s
