Came for the epicness. Stayed for the epicness.
Wow! Intensely gratifying! Little like Savatage, the whole album is as good as Warriors Path,Sacred Oath, Triumpher. I'm 63 keep kicking my ass, metal is better than ever.
A little bit of king diamond here and there. Loved the album.
New Classic/
Thanks a million!
Western shores is an Anthem for sure! If I were president it would be the new National Anthem! 🤘
Now that's Metal ! 🤘🤘
The only Gatekeeper I approve of

Triggern good emotions.
Nomad , is my actually favorite Song.

This is the internet’s album of choice
Absolutely phenomenal. This is the sound I love. Eternal Champion, Visigoth, Gatekeeper... any other bands that have the vibe of these three, please don't hesitate to recommend!
Atlantean Kodex, Battleroar, Smoulder, Holy Martyr, Grand Magus, Wrathblade
thanks for the mention of Wrathblade! I'll soon be adding Holy Martyr and Grand Magus to my Heavy Metal playlist which has Atlantean Kodex and Battleroar. you may appreciate it if you'd like to check it out@@mordechaifrizis7231
Check out Savage Oath, a new supergroup with members of Eternal Champion, Visigoth, Pagan Altar, and Manilla Road. Their song Warlock's Trance is phenomenal.

Great voice and percussion work......
That's exactly what we wrote it for!
Time is of the essence, Tyranny makes creativity, and heightens your senses, and storable food, Maui wowie.
I am waiting for this to arrive at my doorstep.
Great stuff! Feels like a unique combo of Adramelch and Helloween to me somehow. :D

A+ Fantastic sound, vocals, lyrics, production and arrangements.
Thanks so much!
Do I hear influence from Rob Halford and possibly with a little Steve Kudlow and Geddy Lee…
Guitars is reminiscent of KK Downing with a vague touch of Malmsteen🤔
Solid album by the way, recommend playing it on Spotify🎸🎸🎸🎸🤘🤘🤘
As for the guitar a little KK Downing
(I’m already cheating and doing the very thing as we speak😏)
I was so lucky to catch these guys at Hell's Heros! Jeff and the boys are real sweethearts, and they put on a hell of a show! The album rips, of course
Thanks so much for watching!
I saw you there! You were the one with your horns in the air,
F'ing excellent dudes, new favorite album, absolutely love this!!!!
Awesome album! 💥👊🔥 Greetings from Argentina guys! 😍😊
Saludos desde Grecia de un amante de Argentina y metal música, como este álbum maravilloso de artistas de Canadá.
@@vagzant84 wwooo you speak very well in Spanish...😁🤩 Thank you! Yeah stay metal 🤘🏻🤘🏻 Cheers!
@@ariadnamarianicolussi soy un poco loco para Argentina, América Latina en general, y la lengua rioplatense, por muchos años, querida Ariadna María. Sus nombres "Ariadna María" son "Αριάδνη-Μαρία" en griego y su apellido parece como de origen griego "Nicolussi"》"Νικολούσση"...
¿Tenés algunas personas familiares de Grecia o sos de ancestral griega o algo así? Para ser sincero, esa razón, por su amor por heavy metal y por lo que estás viviendo a maravillosa Argentina, bella María Ariadna, te escribé...jeje...Keep on metal y up the irons, amiga....🤘🤘🏼🤘🏿✌️😘🤣🤗
@@vagzant84 oohh ya veo...🤣🤣 Increíble! Muy bien, te felicito! Espero sigas practicando mucho tu Español. Un abrazo desde Patagonia Argentina! 🤘🏻🔥😈
@@ariadnamarianicolussi muchas gracias otra vez, para tus palabras buenas para mi español. Tengo que corregir algunos errores que hago, en general, pero estoy a la ruta correcta, como decimos acá en Grecia. Que coincidencia...Ahora tiene un documentario sobre Argentina (Waterfront cities of the world) en la TV griega, en el canal de ERT3( live/en vivo)....de verdad, jejeje...Tengo ganas de visitar la Tierra del fuego y la maravillosa Patagonia ("Patagon" fue un gigante que metieron los Conquistadores y dieron ese nombre a la región etc etc...historia buena), Córdoba, Santa Fe y Rosario, las Pampas, el norte, con las cataratas de Iguazú etc etc). Amo los documentarios sobre Argentina. Un abrazo desde la provincia de Tesália y la ciudad de Tríkala, Heavy Metal ángel, María Ariadna....
Mi piacciono molto , belle ritmiche e voce adatta utile alla causa ,favolosa chitarra , complimenti avanti tutta
This is great - same type of innovative modern take on the epic stylish somewhat progressive trad heavy metal style I have come to expect from Cruz del Sur. Also love the Moebius/Philippe Druillet style acidhead fantasy Eurocomics theme to the artwork and lyrics.
Very kind, thank-you!
Great stuff.
The each song have character, an identity, which makes them memorable. A trait fewer and fewer bands manage to do these days.
That is much appreciated!
@@GatekeeperMetal One of my top albums of 2023 for sure! "Shadow and Stone" goes so hard (Whole album does TBH lol) \m/ Also kickass these guys are from Canada too!!
Listened to this twice and decided I needed to buy it! So good! First good new music I have heard in a very long time! Thank you!! :)
Thanks so much!
It is sooo good...
Thanks for turning me on to Gatekeeper. It’s a great album, even better than their last one. Keep up the fantastic work. Your channel is awesome!
This absolutely slaps! The Storr art is instantly recognisable too 🔥
Slaps as in
Funky bass playing? 🙀
3 best albums released this year for me has to be.
Phoebus the Knight - Ferrum Fero Ferro Feror
Sacred Outcry - Towers of Gold
Gatekeeper - From Western Shores
damn, thanks a lot!!
No fillers ,all killers! Best heavy metal album of the year no excuses
Спасибо за альбом 🤘🏻
The vocals are incredible on this one. Never heard of this band before, but appreciate the work!! Shadow and Stone is memorable here. Excellent song all around. Structure, tempo changes, vocals are well done and placed perfectly in the mix throughout. Guitar work is solid and not overplayed. Solos really hit. Great job on this one! Nomads, Twisted Towers, and the closing track- Keepers of the Gate are also worth listening to. Drums well played throughout! Gatekeeper- nice! 🤘🤘 keep it up 👍
Appreciate you!
HEAVY METAL de muita qualidade! \m/ Metal é vida!
This is fucking awesome!
Been cool hearing all the ways they honed their sound since that 2013 demo. They've come a long way and this album is a cool shift in sound. Loving the Hansi Kursch vibe in the singing.
Thanks for sticking with us!
@@GatekeeperMetal thank you for riffing hard since.
I agree. I´ve been listening to them since 2017 or 2018 and from all that new Trad Heavy/Epic/Doom Metal they´ve been in the eschalon of my go to bands, but I preferred Eternal Champion, Atlantean Kodex, Visigoth etc. That being said, with this album they catapulted themselves into top 3 bands of the past 7 years or so in this particular style. I´ll refer to this album in the same breath as Conquerors oath or The Armor of Ire. Contender for album of the year so far. All killer no filler, I raised my fist, I yelled, I grinned until my face hurt for 50 minutes. That happens seldom upon first listen.
Excelente álbum!
There are so many great NWOTHM bands and albums coming out, some really stand out and this is one of them! Instant Manilla Road vibes! \m/
And by that I don't necessarily mean in terms of sound, this is a great example of how to do this style of epic metal in a contemporary way, this sounds intrinsically modern while maintaining the integrity of the genre, there is no better way to do it these days and I think that takes a lot of skill. The Manilla Road comparison is much more in terms of the ability that Gatekeeper has to pull the listener into a vision, this whole record is filled with dramatic mental images. I had this blasting on 11 Friday night and I couldn't help but take out a sword and swing it around in between swigs of my beer.
@@SavageImprint I totally understand what you are saying metal brother! They’re one of the few epic metal Bands who truly
Sound epic and mystical like Manilla Road. Many try but few succeed in that sword and sorcery sound. Epic metal
Mixed with some USPM.
Amazing album! I'm thinking of buying the CD version. Luckily it's available for purchase in Poland. Great solos, very nice compositions. Keep up the great work! :)
It's pretty lame to respond to myself but today I got the CD and I have to say it sounds powerful and amazing on my stereo!
So magnific and Majestic sound, remind me a lot of early Steelattack, Savatage and early Dark Moor but with a own touch 🤟
Great album!
Thank you!
New vocalist kills, but I'll miss the style of the old one. East of the Sun and Grey Maiden got me into Gatekeeper. Anyways, great stuff guys!
⚔️ VERY ⚔️ FUGGIN ⚔️ METAL ⚔️
CORRECT ⚔️💪
Muy bueno!
Nice Nice very Nice heeeeeeelllllllllllllll yeeesssssssss respekt Respekt RESPEKT NWOTHM full Albums svako dobro svima u grupi pozdrav Šefe
METAL AS FUCKKKKKK!!! 🤘☠️🤘
In the first minute, It reminds me a lot of Iced Earth... Only in a more NWOBHM way...
ngam mat
Dommage de ne pas avoir un petit morceau en Français haha sinon c'est très bon !
I would listen to this in the car, but be doing 300mph.
This like Judas Priest x Early 90s Blind Guardian
Honestly, as I saw this in my recommendations, I initially read it as "Gatekeeper from western whores"
