I fell in love with the song by the loading of the gun!! That's it!!! And the speed of the drums!!! 🤘🤟🤘🤟🤘🤟🤘🤟🤘🤟🤘. Thank you 89.5 WSOU for introducing me to this amazing band!!!
First heard a demo from these guys in the late 90's through my friend, they were early in their careers here in Sweden at that point. Saw them live for the first time after their reunion back in 2007 or 2008, and have come back to their music every once in a while ever since. Really glad they got back together and started playing again.
I remember being a little christian boy 18 years ago and thinking "Zao and Underoath are the best metal bands ever!" Then one day while driving home from school with friends, one of them put this album on. That's when I realized that everyone in my scene was just trying to be At the Gates. lol
@@SpacemanXC If you stopped believing, according to the bible it is impossible that you ever believed the gospel in the first place. Take 13 minutes to hear a clear gospel presentation and decide once again to accept or reject. Don't underestimate this moment. ua-cam.com/video/WuxFf9PAtxU/v-deo.html
@@killout18 I used to believe very much. But two years at an evangelical bible college ruined me. The more I studied, the less the bible made sense. I'm incapable of having faith, even though I want it very much. The only thing I can accept, at this point, is the Calvinist view that God has created me to be destroyed. I'm the vessel for trash in Romans chapter 1. Edit: To be clear, I think there is a God but I also think all religious texts are deliberately flawed in order to frustrate people like me. So I don't know what parts of the bible are true and untrue. And neither does anyone else.
Always the leaders in suicide. It's sad. Lots of great bands and athletes out of Sweden. Patrik Berglund is a Swedish hockey player going through some mental health issues. Many Swedes do. Dead from Mayhem is another.
@@myquest666420 yea its very sad, and if u live here for a while, and are somehow a free thinking individual, life is just sucked out of u by a controlling and almost totalitarian system and the abiding and uniform way of thinking of the masses.. plenty of hypocrisy in the swedish way of life, and i believe its part of the problem regarding depression and mental health in this country. The vibe here is almost sterile, and the true “family” is the “state”, no wonder many feel alienated..
@@Tombombadillo999 clearly what you referenced must be what the song is about. But now the woke totalitarianism is being used successfully to subjugate the entire developed world.
@@ganondorfdragmire7886 Yes, precisely. 0-000-0 represents a triolet (or triplet) isolated between two crotchet. When the main riff starts at 0:18, those are the first notes you hear. It's the backbone of the whole album's rhythm. It's sometimes referred to as ''alternate picking'', which basically means combining upwards and downwards strokes. It's one of the things that make At the Gates' sound so special. Cheers!
@@ThySickn3ss I see we have fallen into a humorous state of misunderstanding. You see, I was talking about the drummer, and his hi-hat hand, but I appreciate the information! What's a "crotchet" anyway? :D
that riff could've been written yesterday. so timeless.
It's was man you didn't know?? They're fuckin time travelers!
These riffs are the cure for Alzheimer’s...can’t forget them!
I’m addicted to the main riff at 18 seconds in
the "d" in my username stands for dementia
Or do You just forget you have Alzheimer's when listening? 😂😂🤘🤘🤘
I will remind you one day! Suicide is an option asshole!
One of the most influential heavy metal albums period.
Melodic death!
Going on 30 years now. I was there, bought this album the week it came out. I am blessed to ever hear it.
mate, if you like metal proper metal you love this song

Imagination well said
Why are you commenting on a UA-cam page for this song if you don't like it
@@benroth1588 ......? is there a deleted comment I'm missing?
mike west I assume so. I don’t remember making this comment, but I can’t imagine any other reason for it. Or it could have been that I was drunk.
as an older metal head, this album reawakened me in 1995. Classic album
thankyou. for restoring my faith in humanity. i haven't listened to this album since i was seventeen. I forgot people still make good music.
