It is for me "again" a typical Be'lakor album.... The first time you listen to it, you get the impression that it's "okay". After the 10th, 11th, 12th time the "Be'lakor feeling" slowly comes and the music seeps deeper and deeper into the brain. And then suddenly it's there, the feeling of enjoying a "perfect" piece of music. Thank you very much for creating this feeling every time with every CD. Now only the corresponding tour in Germany is missing...
Well said. Of Breath and Bone hooked me when I first listened, but Frail Tide and Stone's Reach took a few listens to start to appreciate. I am still not really into Vessels, and this one seems... ok... Fingers crossed they visit Germany soon!
@shipwright2464 I dont know. I met a girl at work who is a fan, and that is the only other person than me who listens to them I have met in real life ever.
Single most underrated band in Metal and maybe music. George's lyrics and vocals amazing as always coupled with some of the best riffs, rhythms and general musical arrangement in metal. I hope every person that has enjoyed this will go out and buy the album (and their back catalog... breath and bone and the stones reach are the pinnacle of metal) as I have... they deserve it and we NEED to get them to a level where they will grace the US with a tour! Amazing job again guys! Nothing may ever top Desolation of Ares but I love that you keep trying!
Yes everyone needs to support the music we love. So we need to support them by buying the music & merchandise. That keeps them going on & helps them to do show more places. Support Metal Music & Musicians
You're not wrong! Absolutely stunning music, taking metal to the next level, it's rare to find a cd you don't skip a track, but Be'lakor have 5! I need to see then live!
Love this band been with them since 2016 when Vessels dropped absolutely thought they were dead. What spiced this up better is that Allagaeon dropped their new album a gew months prior - so my waiting wasnt too long. But I dont take it as a wait bur more time to appreciate older stuff of theirs
The thing I like about Be'lakor the most is that nothing really repeats, you hear a cool riff and then it's gone until the next listen. It's like watching a movie listening to these guys, always having to pay attention what comes next. I love it.
a masterpiece, would expect nothing less from these legends. 100 repeats later it gets better and more complex and stunning with every listen. Excellent!
Never heard of them until this popped up in the suggested vids tonight. Made my 3-week old relax, and gave me a sorely needed moment of peace. We'd already done a 1349 live concert (I knew 1349 has a calming effect on infants from experiences with my firstborn) and a 1914 album (never heard of them before either). Well, the baby is with his mother now, and I'm still listening. Sounds great!
Wonderful, powerful, a UFO in the world of metal, to a galaxy in the world of music ... I listen to it in loop and in loop, it is totally addictive !!! 1000 Thank you BE'LAKOR for this beautiful agreement ! 1000 Mercis BE'LAKOR pour ce très Bel Accord ..
I have listened to each album by this band a thousand times and each time I realize that they make perfect music, a work of art that transports me to another level. I can't pick a favorite song or album because they all maintain such a high level. There are no groups like this today. The best current Metal band. Greetings from Spain.
Their music just reaches me in such a profound way. There are so many great moments throughout all of their compositions. I many times feel such intense joy followed by inner peace. Such a beautiful band.
Just gotta enjoy & appreciate the musicians who put the time & effort into making a great album. Cause you gotta have the skill first & foremost & the passion for what your going to be making. And realize the opportunity you gots to release your work unto the masses. So thank you Be'Lakor & all the heavy metal bands out there as long as your making good music🎵 thanks for giving us all a chance to 👂listen to your music, cause I Love 🖤 this shit right here 🤘🏼💀🥁🎸🎙
@@ГеоргиПеев-й3ы I've listened to that album 5 times in the last 2 days. I LOVE THE NEW AEPHANEMER!!! Blood River - Tales In The Path To Agony is another great 2021 melodic death metal album.
@@directedbyxanderjones8329 Yesss, I feel like Aephanemer get better and better with each upcoming album. Memento Mori was okay, like, the vocals didn't feel well-mixed/well-done; Prokoption was great, but now? This year's album by theirs is top notch. Hope they maintain this momentum. Oh, interesting, thanks, gonna hear out that album sometime
The best band I've ever heard. Literally. And the theme music to all my fantasy books soon coming out in a few years and will be made into movies. Belakor will be the theme music to these movies 😎
I didn't give this album much of a chance when it first came out. 'The Smoke of Many Fires' is one of my favourite tracks ever and nothing from this one stood out like that, so I moved on quickly. Well, I'm happy to be proved wrong and this album is one hell of a grower. 6 months later and it's in heavy rotation!
I like this album a lot, it has the melodic complexities you would expect from the band since Of Breath and Bone combined with the rest of their legacy. This band is unique and I'm happy they have returned with their full potential and strength.
It's always crazy how well arranged these titles in their albums are. They match to each other and their albums are a whole song and such a development from the first to the last track. You also can hear them for their own. But when you hear it from beginning to the end it's journey or a theater play which comes in acts.
New favorite songs spotted. Get ready for fire raid. Fire! That's about how this album is hitting me right now. What a wonderful album. Thank you for this masterpiece. Current favorite track: Much More Was Lost (especially from minute 9:57)
It almost pisses me off at how underrated you guys are. If it's ever dejecting, it most definitely doesn't show in your music, album after album. I truly hope that one day, you all get the light I feel that you deserve. Don't ever let the numbers convince you that what you guys are creating is anything less than amazing. And thats underselling the hell out of it, in my opinion.
Also, try listening to Van Halen's Respsect The Wind from the Twister soundtrack if you've never heard it. It's still awsome and I think you'd enjoy it if you like the intro to Locus.
Man, I just found out you released a new album. I haven't been so giddy for quite a time. And now after having listened to it I feel calm and grateful. Haven't felt like that since Of Breath And Bones. I wish you guys all the best!
I love all of your albums. I would rank this somewhere between The frail tide and vessels. Impressive that after all these years, you still maintain top quality
25:32 onward in Valence to the end of the track just pure perfection for me, the drum breaks and the overall band synergy would be just ridiculous to experience live, get yourselves back to the Factory Theatre in Sydney boys. We'll be there again in bought merch some 5 years later ;)
Be'lakor came under my radar through a recommendation w/ Ne Obliviscaris. This genre (and band) are the thing I have been looking for, since I had no clue what would some heavier melodic/power metal with growls be like. Superb!
Top quality metal again. Agree that they are one of the most underrated bands around, they always deliver modern death metal with melody and a nod to the past too. On this album they give the heaviness a chance to breathe with the quieter moments and that makes it all the more effective, rather than a full on 100% growl and aggression style. They don't seem to have toured Europe extensively over the years and that may have affected their chances of making it bigger, which is a crying shame. They deserve success and are a band of the highest quality.
What to really give it to Be'lakor, they always manage to keep me either hypnotize or exited and pump on their albums, they are really something else as most bands bring out decent to good efforts on their albums and this guys just killed it.
...got to know them with their 2009 release...ever since they my top masters of melodeath act!...love the symphonic n melancholic touch in the sound...🔥🔥🔥
I love this album, and the band is really growing on me. It's the doomy, Insomnium kind of melodeath: instantly recognizable as melodeath, but very distinct from the early Gothenburg albums.
All the album is definitely top tier Melodeath / Prog, but Much More Was Lost, still flabbergasted everytime I listen to it! It's such a magnificent track that up the ante riff after riff, I bow down to Be'lakor's awesomeness and genial creativity. Cheers from Quebec, Canada!
This band is on a level capable of creating new musical mementos, even for the seasoned metal head that has heard almost everything. Superlative, incredible work.
It is for me "again" a typical Be'lakor album.... The first time you listen to it, you get the impression that it's "okay". After the 10th, 11th, 12th time the "Be'lakor feeling" slowly comes and the music seeps deeper and deeper into the brain.

same feeling here, actually. well said. I love this album!
yess... happens with these type of bands😀

ua-cam.com/video/CiJE7HErVfE/v-deo.html Check out this one
This is exactly how I felt about this album. About the 5th listen and it just hit me. Wonderful album.
I bought this album and all their previous ones. Bands like this deserve it. Support your favorite metal bands!
Relay the metal
Be'lakor always delivers. Such an underrated band
no they are not "underrated". In fact they are one of the most famous melodic death metal bands in last decade.
@@shipwright2464 they should be more applauded than they are. So I say they're underrated.
@@Martin-jk2ng They are applauded ^^
@shipwright2464 I dont know. I met a girl at work who is a fan, and that is the only other person than me who listens to them I have met in real life ever.
@@ventarfield7115 Lets be honest, melodeath is not what we would call mainstream, but they are not underrated on the scene
blessed be the day i stumbled upon this glorious band!
This album is so good, i listen it again and again, and every time it gets better and better
U like me? Can't stop listening.. repeat on all the time!
Yes.

dont forget Steve, he and george share the lyric writing.
You're not wrong! Absolutely stunning music, taking metal to the next level, it's rare to find a cd you don't skip a track, but Be'lakor have 5! I need to see then live!
100% agreed. Stone's Reach is absolutely the pinnacle of metal, cannot disagree at all. Absolutely the truth.
Love this band been with them since 2016 when Vessels dropped absolutely thought they were dead. What spiced this up better is that Allagaeon dropped their new album a gew months prior - so my waiting wasnt too long. But I dont take it as a wait bur more time to appreciate older stuff of theirs
Every time I feel down, I listen to this band. This music is not just amazing, it's therapeutic. Amazing work of art.
The thing I like about Be'lakor the most is that nothing really repeats, you hear a cool riff and then it's gone until the next listen. It's like watching a movie listening to these guys, always having to pay attention what comes next. I love it.
Ι thought I didn't like it at first and now I can't stop listening to it.
Valence, Sweep of Days and Hidden Window are my favs.
Bought the limited Gold Vinyl and the limited Box set. Be'lakor can get all my money, they deserve it.
Did you get yours? Shipping on mine was delayed.
@@devinspartan6139 yes it arrived last week, the delay was much shorter than expected
Such a masterpiece by such masters. Never goes wrong.
This masterpiece took Melodic Death Metal to a level nobody ever knew existed
Not the band we deserve, but the band we need.
Metal died for me for 10 years until I heard You! OMG
a masterpiece, would expect nothing less from these legends. 100 repeats later it gets better and more complex and stunning with every listen. Excellent!

Man, that intro just sets the stage for an epic album.
Typical Belakor awesome awesomeness
Wonderful, powerful, a UFO in the world of metal, to a galaxy in the world of music ...

Their music just reaches me in such a profound way. There are so many great moments throughout all of their compositions. I many times feel such intense joy followed by inner peace. Such a beautiful band.
This band helped me FOCUS and cram for my exams in dire situations. So underappreciated!

@@ГеоргиПеев-й3ы thanks for something new
so im not the only one who knows it seems. what a time to be alive. happy new year, new day, another rotation blessed and bestowed upon us
Sweep of days, I really get that feeling of old opeth. Like the drapery falls from blackwater park. Awesome.
Exceptional music!
Soothing to me
Masterpiece. MUST Tour Europe and Italy ASAP
This is the first Be’lakor material I’ve ever heard. Fell into by accident. Fuck, it’s good!
Foothold from 14.45... I can replay this over and over. Gem of an album. And what a band!
The best band I've ever heard. Literally. And the theme music to all my fantasy books soon coming out in a few years and will be made into movies. Belakor will be the theme music to these movies 😎
That's cool!
Is there somewhere I could read or watch some of your work
HEY!!! I SAW YOU ON TIKTOK 😂
I didn't give this album much of a chance when it first came out. 'The Smoke of Many Fires' is one of my favourite tracks ever and nothing from this one stood out like that, so I moved on quickly. Well, I'm happy to be proved wrong and this album is one hell of a grower. 6 months later and it's in heavy rotation!
Love this band. Masters of metal sound and brilliant artists.
What an absolute masterpiece. It is like an uncontrollable storm that takes you on a big uncontrollable journey.
Шедевр. Благодаря таким вещам я вспоминаю зачем живу.
есть такое !
Во истину
Просто послушайте чтоб ни кто не мешал охуенно
I like this album a lot, it has the melodic complexities you would expect from the band since Of Breath and Bone combined with the rest of their legacy. This band is unique and I'm happy they have returned with their full potential and strength.
MY ALBUM OF THE YEAR 2021!
Every song a banger - over and over again !!! 🤜🤛
It's always crazy how well arranged these titles in their albums are.
They match to each other and their albums are a whole song and such a development from the first to the last track.
You also can hear them for their own.
But when you hear it from beginning to the end it's journey or a theater play which comes in acts.
Most definitely. I read they say their vessels album is the only concept one. But i think all of them are to some extent. This one more than first 3
That opening tho. The more I listen to that first song the louder I play it. Can't believe I'm just hearing these guys now. Thank you, YT algorithm. 🤘
Awesome Album!! Love the ambience and heavy riffs, as well as the cover art. Indelible is a masterpiece. 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Outrageous Album !
They never disappoint !
Amazing, just as everything done by Be'lakor. I have no words
This is not an ordinary metal album this is masterpiece symphony 😊
Hidden window is just INSANELY good!
New favorite songs spotted.
Get ready for fire raid.
Fire!
That's about how this album is hitting me right now.
What a wonderful album.
Thank you for this masterpiece.
Current favorite track: Much More Was Lost (especially from minute 9:57)
Awesome

Locus it’s such a great song
This album should be no. 1 metal album in 2021
Metalstorm gave the album # 1 "The Best Melodeath / Extreme Power / Gothenburg Metal Album Of 2021" and
#2 on "Top 20 albums of 2021".
I still get chill bumps every time I hear locus start up again.
Yup. That first 1:30 is stunning and so melodic.
Also, try listening to Van Halen's Respsect The Wind from the Twister soundtrack if you've never heard it. It's still awsome and I think you'd enjoy it if you like the intro to Locus.
Most underrated band... absolutely stunning
Magnificent, powerful and nostalgic album.
49:33 - 50:15, this part is fascinating me, so emotional. I'm in love with this band.
Its actually amazing how you guys hold on to your stuff after all these years. Awesome album.
Man, I just found out you released a new album. I haven't been so giddy for quite a time.
And now after having listened to it I feel calm and grateful. Haven't felt like that since Of Breath And Bones.
I wish you guys all the best!
First contact with this Band.
And what can i say? Ist's awesome! I Love it. Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪.
Be'lakor #1
Valence = one best death metal song
Never goes wrong, they deserve the best!
Perfect.. beautyful, mystic…dark.. like always. I’am really enjoyed today ❤️
These guys are great. Greetings from Germany, we love you!
Everytime when I listen to be'lakor, I stare at the walls without the light or close my eyes, because it's too good to be distracted by anything.
Going to be listening to this everyday for years just like the other albums
I love all of your albums. I would rank this somewhere between The frail tide and vessels.
Impressive that after all these years, you still maintain top quality

Even just the first 100 seconds, this album intro... the Be'Lakor Giant awakens
Came for the pictures, stay for the music, thank you very much 😍
Being so hyped already for the full album and there comes this intro. That feeling :)

Be’lakor, Shylmagoghnar(I know they don’t do live shows),Swallow the Sun, Insomnium, Rivers of Nihil would be my version of a perfect concert event.
I see we have similar taste. I will have to check out Rivers of Nihil.
Thanx for this beatiful album.
I can’t stop listening to hidden window 🪟🥶😬😱😱😱😱😱😱🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾 what a freaking song !!
Cant wait to see you guys this Wednesday at Brutal Asault and the 15. aug here in Copenhagen
Great album! The song Hidden Window really stood out as great to me. Had to replay it like 3 times first time listening!
Belakor never disappoints, sheesh... its always the same good Belakor, dammm i love em so much
So far so good. Belakor can never go wrong.
Be´lakor perfect band
Abraços de Curitiba... Brasil
A year ago I probably wouldn't have appreciated music like this, but after a full year of blackened death and black metal I definitely appreciate this
so proud to say these guys live in Melbourne,,just like me,,they put Melbourne on the map in the metal universe
...got to know them with their 2009 release...ever since they my top masters of melodeath act!...love the symphonic n melancholic touch in the sound...🔥🔥🔥
warning: don't do anything else while listening to all this album twice, only then you can absorb all the complexity of the work.
beware: addictive.
Молодцы ребята,какие бомбезные переходв,вокал огонь, процветания вашей группе!
Fabulous album!! Such a joy to listen to!
I love this album, and the band is really growing on me. It's the doomy, Insomnium kind of melodeath: instantly recognizable as melodeath, but very distinct from the early Gothenburg albums.
Another Masterpiece from the Downunders!

Goosebumps at 18'15... ;)
(As I already wrote : it's probably your best opus, more progressive than others ; a really good job, guys !!!)
This band is on a level capable of creating new musical mementos, even for the seasoned metal head that has heard almost everything. Superlative, incredible work.
Incredible production
Thank you guys for this wonderfull piece of music!!!
So excited about this! Picked up a shirt and pre ordered the LP
Masterpiece, expected nothing less from Be'lakor.
Great Album from a great Band!!
🤘🤘
Smashed the shit out of it
And Asus TUF lineup :P
Thank you for making reviews that take account more than only gaming performance. Namely media production/creation.
I love that you're a Metal fan.
Однозначно сильный альбом.
Be'lakor и Omnium Gаtherum чем- то похожи,но каждый по своему прекрасен.
I listen to this album about 4-5 times day since it came out. It's simple, I'm not listening to anything else.
If you haven’t heard of this group yet I recommend checking out Shylmagoghnar.
