As a guitar player, I can honestly say the drums in this song absolutely kick ass. the guitar playing is top notch as well but the drums...friggin wow. EPIC!
There is no way Tuomas would take in worse drummer than he is. Quality standards are quite high. Everything is just exactly on time and in right place.
THE FLOOD LYRICS: How to stand one´s ground When the flood drowns everything around Conceals and buries under How to rebuild and re-design How to forge as whole and re-divide Broken and torn asunder How to speak without a sound Without a voice utter the words profound Into the silence How to comprehend and to abide How to re-arrange and re-define The emptiness inside Cold winds of the north Black waters and the frozen shores Are waiting for the storm No trails leading forth No pathway to the woods Forsaken and forlorn
Awesome. How the hell Finland, a country with less habitants than a big city, can have so many amazing bands? Is it something in the air or in the water?
I've heard theories before that suggests that because of Finnish society being (at least compared to North American society) more quiet and shy. And heavy metal provides the perfect opportunity of expression and they are able to break free from that silence.
Carlos: It depends, some people are shy here of course but some are very brisk/snell. I think many Finnish people are nervous when they have to speak example english. They are worried that they speak wrongly and thats why many foreing people thinks that Finns are shy. But this is just my opinion ☺
we are not shy, we are just hyperconcious about our general presence. i don't think it's shyness, just.. ehh.. heh.. very confusing inferiority complex :D
Winter beast (Tuomas) is back. Loved this blackish melodic slow tempo song. and the heaviness in the guitar riffs.... This should be a soundtrack for an epic historical movie.
This song is a truly beautiful piece of art. This song was released about 2 weeks before my grandfather passed away. I didn't get to say goodbye to him. He was a sufferer of Parkinson's late in life. So, naturally, I feel regret and this song sums up the Flood of emotions I feel. Such a great metaphor for something real and something so full. Whether it's a real flood or one within you, you must persevere. I don't want to be that person, but, I feel like this song was made for me to be strong and persevere. Thank you Wolfheart for all you've given us.
Hey ! I am sorry to hear about your grandfather. I am glad that my "inner flood" is able to help you someway with your own. I hope all the best for you !
Tuomas, I can't thank you enough for your words and all that you do. I'm sorry I missed your comment... it's been a while since it was written. You've helped me come to grips with the loss of someone dear to me and like I said before, I can't thank you enough. I hope you all are able to come to California in America one day, I'd love to buy you all a beer. And, in the meantime, I wish you all to have peace and happiness on a road to great successes and fulfilled dreams. So, thank you again Tuomas, for your words, your music and all that you do. Cheers brother.

I am a Combat Veteran...I have watched my friends die...this song helps me relate to loneliness, confusion, inability to accept what is, concepts of reality, nightmares, difficulty to adapt to society, anger, depression, suicidal thoughts....etc......this song is my Mantra......WOLFHEART!!!
Hey Michael. I hope this Mantra steers you away from the things you relate the song. That was the reason for me to write the song. To conceal certain issues into the song and by that be able to step out from that "box" and see things from a different angle. Almost like observing your self from outsiders point of view for a second. So that loneliness would not create confusion, find a place where one feels home despite the norm os society (someday cabin deep in the woods in my case), channel the anger (guitar, drums, gym in my case) etc. I wish all the best for you M ! -Tuomas-
I thank you for your service. And I can relate to this song as well I am not a vet just a 26 year old man that has lost all his grandparents from age, his father and a great mate to suicide, a brother to SIDs, 3 cousins and an uncle. This song helps with the thoughts that you get some days when your guard is down and I wish you and your family the best.
With the feelings we carry inside, I can't imagine being a combat veteran. Thanks for your selfless service.. it takes a special breed of person. You are the breed we need. You have my kindest regards.
Michael Sharpe. Thank you for your service. My wife did 6 years in the marines, I'm in my first year of the army. I have yet to deploy so I cant say I know your pain, but seeing my wife go through her stuff with losing many freinds is difficult. All I can say is stay strong man, keep pushing and fight through it. Everybody that was taken are true heros and will never be forgotten.
I basically experienced a weird internal dizzy trip for about 6 minutes and just woke up to let you know... just in case you're interested... AMAZING SONG
ONE of the best Songs i*we heard in a long time!!! Gives me a small ammount of angciety, but mostly Joy, and a hope for the future!!! WAN'T MORE OF THIS !!!!!!!!
and i got another blast of goosebumps at 4:32...that extra voice falling in...fuuuuuck it is beautiful... how can one song be so brutal and soft at the same time...it is art
There are so many excellent bands in Finland I just keep forgetting some of them! It's been a while since I listened to Wolfheart and the vocalist having BRHG-shirt is just another reminder!
I've been listening to metal for about 100 years. This is up there with the best. I know that every era and genre throws up favourites but class always shines through.
I think this track is now my favorite of Wolfheart... Oh Gods, it's so epic! This band is making such progress. Impressive. Keep on winter-metalling! \m/
Wolfheart is going to be in history books, for sure. Tuomas writes bigger and bigger songs album after album. Some would say that he has created a whole new genre, great job :)
this melodeath stuff coming from Finland nowadays describes the best an average Nordic man - a rather soft dude in heart, loves nature and everything, but bad at expressing himself, therefore often others think he's rude and angry.
Hell yea. Work outside and you live a long life. Hail from the US tumoas. Drummer of American band impending doom here. Love your band. Majorly. Cheers.
Cold winds from the North Black water and the frozen shores Are waiting for the Storm No trails leading forth No Pathways to the woods Je suis né au nord de la vallée du Fleuve St-Laurent, les Appalaches à l'Est, les Laurentides à l'Ouest, près de l'Ile d'Orléans. Ces 5 strophes représentent exactement ce qu'est l'essence du Nord. Merci de l'avoir si bien exprimé.
What is it with you Finns? From time to time I randomly enter a UA-cam site and instantly fall in love with the music, and of course it's a Finnish band again... something more to explore. Thanks!
Absolutely amazing song: melody, riffs, drums, vocal, views in clip everything is like from fantasy land.This could be soundtrack to every metalhead life or any serious movie with deep sense \m/ Anotha perfect song
Metal can be hateful, loving, passionate, inspiring, adrenaline boosting, depressing, up lifting, understanding and so much more And yes, it can be so very beautiful
Still a masterpiece April 2024

@@СергейОблесимов I hope the world will end by then, lol
but if we were alive we would still listen to this masterpiece again

Still a masterpiece until the world ends !
Oh Finland, Finland...motherland of so many great bands, land of heavy metal. I love your music and landscapes.
When Metal meets Nature...A truly astounding thing happens.

THE FLOOD LYRICS:
How to stand one´s ground
When the flood drowns everything around
Conceals and buries under
How to rebuild and re-design
How to forge as whole and re-divide
Broken and torn asunder
How to speak without a sound
Without a voice utter the words profound
Into the silence
How to comprehend and to abide
How to re-arrange and re-define
The emptiness inside
Cold winds of the north
Black waters and the frozen shores
Are waiting for the storm
No trails leading forth
No pathway to the woods
Forsaken and forlorn
My man
Thanks bro!!!!
Είσαι άρχοντας!!!!!
Thanks
Reminds me of Born in winter by Gojira.
Finland has become the home of Winter Metal..
Finnish Melodic Winter Metal ... Approved!!
You don't feel it, then u don't get it right
stop making up stupid alt shit, there is enough already.thanks :)
Man, im not inventing any extra sub-genres or something like that, they already classify their music as winter metal :)
im i aloud to play it in summer?
Hahahaha for sure it's for anytime :)
И каким образом я нашла эту чудесную группу… классно, атмосферно, эмоционально🔥
Music for and of the Gods. Beautiful. Wolfheart never ceases to amaze me.
Finland rules!!!!Hail from New York City.!!
Lycklig för att jag finns din musik här nu. Min nya favorit 🖤
Awesome. How the hell Finland, a country with less habitants than a big city, can have so many amazing bands? Is it something in the air or in the water?
I am from Finland and i'v been wondering the same. Maybe we will get that from mother's milk 😊

hahaha. Fuuny comment Lehikoinen. Although, what Jacquard says sounds interesting. Is it true that finnish people are quiet and shy Lehikoinen ?
Carlos: It depends, some people are shy here of course but some are very brisk/snell. I think many Finnish people are nervous when they have to speak example english. They are worried that they speak wrongly and thats why many foreing people thinks that Finns are shy. But this is just my opinion ☺

Winter beast (Tuomas) is back. Loved this blackish melodic slow tempo song. and the heaviness in the guitar riffs.... This should
be a soundtrack for an epic historical movie.
i sense a lot of ,,the revenant'' movie influences here :D
6sentient hehe you read my mind bro. the only thing is the Revenant movie was released last year. i would say maybe for Games of Thrones :)
Would be great for ''Vikings'',specially for a scene with Bjorn Ironside,sailing into the Mediterrean Sea.
Vikings is epic and I agree this would be awesome in vikings.
Never have I seen such beauty in aggression
This song invokes feelings of being lost (alone) in your own pain. Almost like a death walk.
This song is a masterpiece, it speaketh the language of my soul
I can't help but cry whenever I listen to this piece. The music is so powerful yet tender 🖤
lulz

And don't forget Duskmourn from USA.

My no.1 album of 2017, grateful that Tuomas Saukkonen exists!
Tuomas is definately following the steps of Dan Swano in becoming the god of metal - anything they touch is pure gold. World class!
Ive listened to this song every day for about 3 months now. AMAZING! Also nice to see a rock drummer playing Yamaha drums.
I've been trying to find this for like 5 months!! Glad I found it, I love this song
Красавцы, привет из Харькова

I’ve seen you in Prague in December 2016
Altogether with Insomnium and Barren Earth
It was one of the best days of my life so far
Thank you dear sir
This song is hitting the spot today
Metal has an infinite number of great bands I love this.
The drummer gives its own vibe to that song...!
well done
tip : Listen to this song during your first road to work or whereever you have to go each day will make your day cooler !
I can not stop listening to him, I love every note of his songs... I love it!!!
Still the best song ever wrote, produced, sung, played, listened to. I'm going to need a q-tip my ears just had an audiogasm.
Still Rocking this song 4 years later. Emotional and EPIC!
i know the lyrics but cant hear them at all.but it doesnt matter the entire music just takes me away to a euforic place.its a metal masterpiece :D
I think this track is now my favorite of Wolfheart... Oh Gods, it's so epic! This band is making such progress. Impressive. Keep on winter-metalling! \m/
Wolfheart is going to be in history books, for sure. Tuomas writes bigger and bigger songs album after album. Some would say that he has created a whole new genre, great job :)
Just pure beauty..powerful..somehow melancholic..uplifting..emotional..
I just discovered this band. WOW! They are amazing.
Oh my God ... This is amazing
Yes \,,,/
about right
That's nothing new my friend... Almost everything what is maded by Tuomas is a real, metal masterpiece.
This guy is like fuckin' atomic reaction \m/
My thoughts exactly :)
this melodeath stuff coming from Finland nowadays describes the best an average Nordic man - a rather soft dude in heart, loves nature and everything, but bad at expressing himself, therefore often others think he's rude and angry.
he is a musical monster...he keeps coming up with new songs...incredible
Awesome song guys, 100 times on repeat and i can not stop enjoying. Respect
Metal Art again. I love this song. awesome like all of them. :*
Diese Wälder!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Schönes Lied!

Symbolic, perhaps
