the lyrics are about the inconsistency of life and how its always changing.. sometimes you can logic life, then chaos happens where you can't logic anything, then its logic again..life is an everchanging energy, ever wondered how something seemed so solid, had the potential to change?
I saw Dark Tranquility live during the Projector Tour... They played in Spain with Arch Enemy, Children of Bodom and In Flames. One of the best concerts I have ever attended. I feel lucky.
¡¡Increíble amigo!!😮 Es como haber visto el "Big 4" de trash metal gringo: Slayer, Anthrax, Megadeth y Metallica, o el "Big 4" Alemán: Sodom Kreator, Destruction y Tankard.
So true. This song right here was what brought me into the metal fold. Found Projector first, then Colony, and here we are 20 years later. This song can transport me back in time like no other.
@@wanderingskeleton52 oh it was beautiful. Napster was all the rage and you're lucky if you got this song with a a decent quality after waiting for 2-3 days to download it 😂 in the computer lab
Dark Tranquillity is always recognized as the Fathers of Melodic Death Metal. Along with At The Gates and In Flames, because all 3 of them deserve credit for it
You all make a strong point, but have you guys heard the news? Jesper and peter are in the process of making a new band (cyhra)! Let's see how it goes!
I heard these guys once in a while as a teenager, and for some reason I way underappreciated them. There is something very unique and strong about the way they wrote many of their songs. To rediscover them years later is very, very good.
I liked them as a teenager, but I recently started listening to them more, in freaking 2019, and I agree with you. DT is a special band has a different "feel" than most metal bands.
Definitely my Dear Dark Tranquillity at their best!!! Sadness, clean vocals, melancholic riffs, and their signature tempo changes!!! Simply Beautiful xC

I do not know much about Death metal, and I have listened to very few songs, but I always tell fans about this song.And every single Death metal fan agrees, that it is an absolute classic, and the vocal can really sing, not just scream.And the flanger really does add to the emotions in the song ! One could easily understand the song purpose and meaning, without even knowing the lyrics !
Watched them live a few days ago. I was so lucky to listen to ThereIn, Lethe and so many great songs live. The band's dynamic on stage is amazing. And Stanne's figure is so noble and imposing.He's the best frontman I've seen or will ever see. Eternal respect and devotion!

Projector was so amazing when i first heard it, i could listen to it super loud in the car and at the same time his clean vocals would put me to sleep at night. it was the best.
2024 and still listerning to Therein... brilliant Song, won't change in the next decade or until I die. Just intense as DT has been and still is (my opinion) - a Band I guess I will enjoy until the end.
Some fans are just too close minded, they expect to see their favorite bands fixated in the same theme, or producing exactly the same music... I like what DT has done on this album, The clean vocals, the lyrics, the music... everything seems perfect! it was very courageous of them, and true DT fans should show respect because it's easy to keep repeating urself but it requires true artist to constantly develop their music like what DT is Doing!
This song was the first one I heard from them back when it was released years ago,. And I went out and bought every album they had available at the time.. awesome band..
I listened to DT before I listened to In Flames, love them both. I even have an In Flames tat looking to get a DT one once I can afford it. Doesn't matter which singer sang for who, in fairness both bands make absolutely amazing stuff not to mention both sound so differently now than when they first started, but that in no way stops me from buying their stuff and enjoying the shit right out off it.
Me too.When I saw them live I had heard Fiction,The Gallery and some songs more. Now i have heard the whole discography and I own Where Death Is Most Alive.They are awesome.
Projector was an amazing creation, a switch from The Mind's I that stayed to the roots, brought fresh feeling into the band and yet nothing to suggest that they became pop.
I think it speaks of the thoughts of the first man, just molded and full of fear and confusion, as the Creation unfolds around him out of Chaos. That's how I interpret the lyrics.
I almost see it the same way, except that it doesn't just speak to the first man, it speaks to everyone in this day and age. Our lives today are so confusing, arguably the most confused we ever were. As we no longer focus on survival, we focus on fulfillment and with all the systems in place today we can understand why there's so much conflict, because no one is sure anymore of what is truly right and what is truly wrong, what is truly necessary and what is truly a waste of time. We see this as wrong, but it's not, it's the beauty of this paradoxical world of ours
I think It's a timeless point, in short "Had there always been balance? Surely not, Therein lies the beauty" That fight between chaos and order put the World in movement. And a World in movement is what it's beautiful
"As there were no witnesses There was nothing to be told As nothing could be grasped The story could unfold" Understand that allowed me to release my 15 years state of stuck.. and move on with my life.. Thanks, vital Thanks, Niklas
This album is the link between the 2 dt eras, the minds eye, skydancer and everything before and haven, damage done and everything that came after. A true gem to the genre.
2023 near bevore CHRISTMAS and this song is for me a evergreen! This band is a milestone, unbelievebal, and this band scribes history! I like it so much!
I really wish labels would sort out a decent budget for Melodic Death Metal bands. I know this was 1998 but even recently only really Insomnium have eye catching videos that match the songs where as most others are just concert extracts.
This song is about taking a dump: "...it was solid, yet everchanging, oh it was different..." I really love this song! But every line of the song you can refer for having an epic dump!
omg I wish I could go back to '99 and hear this for the first time again..... I couldn't get the CD outta my jvc kaboom box. I rocked it everywhere!.....the clean vocals the guitar sounds.... woow!!
i think that Dark Tranquillity is one of those bands which just evolves on for each record, Fiction is probably my favourite album of all time, each track is fucking amazing.
Vocals are something between death and goth. Never gets old! 💜
the lyrics are about the inconsistency of life and how its always changing.. sometimes you can logic life, then chaos happens where you can't logic anything, then its logic again..life is an everchanging energy, ever wondered how something seemed so solid, had the potential to change?
Some people change some don't it's up to their choices
Great song ❤
Stanne has by far the best metal growl. You can still clearly what he says and I just love the raspy-ness of it
Never a big fan of his growl/screams but love his lyrics, his passion, his incredible clean hooks. Oh wow you wrote this 14 years ago lol.
2020 and still listening to Therein!
Obvious
Timeless
The perfect Riff ......
Yeah bro si good
Off course!
"Gentle storm. Thundering silence. Inferior force. Uncontrolled calm."
Each phrase is a contradiction. Beautiful.
I guess it's called "Oxymoron" an argumentative and literary resource.. one of the most beautiful.
Yeah I know I come 9 years late
I saw Dark Tranquility live during the Projector Tour... They played in Spain with Arch Enemy, Children of Bodom and In Flames. One of the best concerts I have ever attended. I feel lucky.
Que afortunado loco
Melodeath heaven.
U are
Saw the same tour in Milan, Italy. Fucking amazing. Good ol'times
¡¡Increíble amigo!!😮 Es como haber visto el "Big 4" de trash metal gringo: Slayer, Anthrax, Megadeth y Metallica, o el "Big 4" Alemán: Sodom Kreator, Destruction y Tankard.
The melodies in this song... magnificent.
This song was the one that made me fall in love with this band. This fucking song ♥
Same to me
listening to this song again brings backs lots of memories of 1998, time really flies
just brings back...
What was it like back then?
Its because of DT my views of music changed its sad I completely forgot this band.
So true. This song right here was what brought me into the metal fold. Found Projector first, then Colony, and here we are 20 years later. This song can transport me back in time like no other.
@@wanderingskeleton52 oh it was beautiful. Napster was all the rage and you're lucky if you got this song with a a decent quality after waiting for 2-3 days to download it 😂 in the computer lab
Their guitarist is pretty talented. The riff is what made the song catchy.
You know what really grinds my gears?!? Is that this band isn't getting recognized as well as it should be! Fathers of melodic death metal
You re wrong !
Dark Tranquillity is always recognized as the Fathers of Melodic Death Metal. Along with At The Gates and In Flames, because all 3 of them deserve credit for it
You all make a strong point, but have you guys heard the news? Jesper and peter are in the process of making a new band (cyhra)! Let's see how it goes!
At the Gates
Obviously it was a mix of DT and IF, since they shared members in the beginning.
every dark tranquility song is absolute perfection
I heard these guys once in a while as a teenager, and for some reason I way underappreciated them. There is something very unique and strong about the way they wrote many of their songs. To rediscover them years later is very, very good.

me too,saw them recently but im older now and you notice subtle nuances more
Definitely my Dear Dark Tranquillity at their best!!! Sadness, clean vocals, melancholic riffs, and their signature tempo changes!!! Simply Beautiful xC
Сквозь время, этот мотив выворачивает душу!
Letras
Gentle storm, thundering silence
Inferior force, uncontrolled calm
Vital unlike, logic, chaos, logic
The tone of which his birth ascend
The beat that of a heart descend
Repeating in the infinite
An insight made it clear
Order stormed the surface
Where chaos set the norm
Had there always been balance?
Surely not
Therein lies the beauty
It was solid
Yet ever changing
It was different
Yet the same
So I starve myself for energy
The song around his soul will bend
The notes that in this hole will melt
Crawl out of science
A dreamland if you dare
Disorder clawed the boundaries
We're ordered to stand clear
Was it always different
Never the same?
Therein lies the beauty
It was solid
Yet ever changing
It was different
Yet the same
So I starve myself for energy
As there were no witnesses
There was nothing to be told
As nothing could be grasped
The story could unfold
Superimposed on the elements of anger
Fear, anxiety, hate, despair, remorse
So break from all that fear, hold fast
Exposed, now turn to all you lack
Let echoes be the answers
Return from all the screams
Wordless now, the last attack
So silent, it hurts to listen
Was it always solid
To never change?
Therein lies the beauty
It was solid
Yet ever changing
It was different
Yet the same
So I starve myself for energy

Good job
This lyric is so dark and powerfull, amazing!
It's 2022 and this is my top song on Spotify. How I love DT!
Chills...every time... since 1998! So many memories with this album!
Dear Dark Tranquillity, from Central America, thanks for this great song.
After all these years this band and this album are the perfect starting point for new comers to "Extreme" Metal.
Man...i am searching for this song 13 yrs...finally i found this,im so fucking happy

2024 and never stopped listening to Therein! !,,!.
‘projector’ was my first DT album to own… totally love this track when i first listen to it .. still love it now.. 😀😀
I just love stanne's voice, whether he growls or sings clean :D Go DT, go metal!
gentle storm / thundering silence
inferior force / uncontrolled calm
vital unlife / logic/chaos/logic
the tone of which his birth ascend
the beat that of a heart descend
repeating in the infinite
an insight made it clear
order stormed the surface
where chaos set the norm
had there always been balance?
...surely not
therein lies the beauty
it was solid
yet everchanging
it was different
yet the same
so I starve myself for energy
the song around his soul will bend
the notes that in this hole will melt
crawl out of science
a dreamland if you dear
disorder clawed the boundaries
we're ordered to stand clear
was it always different
...never the same?
therein lies the beauty
as there were no witnesses
there was nothing to be told
as nothing could be grasped
the story could unfold
superimposed on the elemtens of anger
/ fear / anxiety / hate / despair / remorse
so break from all that fear hold fast
exposed now turn to all you lack
let echoes be the answers
return from all the screams
wordless now the last attack
so silent it hurts to listen
was it always solid
...to never change?
therein lies the beauty
Thank you!
One of my favourite Swedish bands. Greetings from Finland. ❤
his clean voice is like god that speak to me and says "stay Melodeath"
Projector was so amazing when i first heard it, i could listen to it super loud in the car and at the same time his clean vocals would put me to sleep at night.
it was the best.
He can dance to Death metal, nuff said
First Dark Tranquillity song I ever heard, and still awesome.
Nothing beats The Emptiness From Which I Fed for me though. It just never gets old.
still sounds great.... classic metal song!
2024 and still listerning to Therein... brilliant Song, won't change in the next decade or until I die. Just intense as DT has been and still is (my opinion) - a Band I guess I will enjoy until the end.

2022 and just discovering DT. It's been a good year so far....
it's the magical source of his epic voice.
This song was the first one I heard from them back when it was released years ago,. And I went out and bought every album they had available at the time.. awesome band..
For 20 years I've listened to this song and this mv....EPICO !
The first Dark Tranquillity song I ever listened to was "White noise/Black silence" some years ago and since then, DT became one of my favorite bands.
It's wonderfull how he does the clean vocals aswell as the grunting!
Rock On Dark Tranquillity! \m/
Still the best DT song for me. Great mix of emotion , aggression and energy. The parts it goes from brutal to clean and vice versa ❤
I listened to DT before I listened to In Flames, love them both. I even have an In Flames tat looking to get a DT one once I can afford it.
Doesn't matter which singer sang for who, in fairness both bands make absolutely amazing stuff not to mention both sound so differently now than when they first started, but that in no way stops me from buying their stuff and enjoying the shit right out off it.
I completely agree!! In Flames and Dark Tranquility are both such awesome bands!!!
Darkness Voice meets Melodic Voice!!Fantastisch und zeitlos!!!!Hut ab!!!!
Love this song. Mikael stanne, the only ginger with a soul :p
CalanDroHan N Test it out for us and let us know how it goes.
Depeche Mode vibe in the clean vocals part !! Love it !
Jaja
Me too.When I saw them live I had heard Fiction,The Gallery and some songs more.
Now i have heard the whole discography and I own Where Death Is Most Alive.They are awesome.
I can listening to this song till the last day of my life .
It's nice to me like first time i heard that in my friend's room
So happy I got to hear it live two different times.
Yeah he can dance ...
I love dark tranquility
Saw them few days ago in Prague, literally had shivers all over my body when they played this
EXCELENTE CANCION, UNA DE LAS MEJORES DEL DEATH METAL MELODICO. ESE MICHAEL STAIN ES ICONO DENTRO DE ESTE GENERO.
One of my favorite albums !!!
foda de mais essa banda \m/ isso que é som da um up ai do brasil para os caras

this is exceptionally good. just discovered them by a hint. swedish metal is just above everything else it seems
"As there were no witnesses
There was nothing to be told
As nothing could be grasped
The story could unfold"
Understand that allowed me to release my 15 years state of stuck.. and move on with my life..
Thanks, vital Thanks, Niklas
Congrats on 1 million views!
The clean vocals part is so heartaking!
OMG times when seeing this on a PC monitor was like a super magical thing. Anyone remembers this on an Enhanced CD? I wanna be 16 again.. :)
YES! My exact memory!...on Haven. Just watching on my phone with my breakfast on my veranda in Norway now
Lmfao
Отличная группа, мелодичность и исполнение завораживают ☺, слушаю с 2000
fucking cant stop listing to this masterpiece still to this day!! by dark tranquility
This album is the link between the 2 dt eras, the minds eye, skydancer and everything before and haven, damage done and everything that came after. A true gem to the genre.
Best Melodic death metal band out there :D
I remember watching this on VHS about 20 years ago, It still sounds so great to me.
simplemente esta canción es hermosa
favorite song in the world !! even better live! this guys are magical !!
I'm having a hard time choosing between albums with this band. Hell, even the knew one is absolutely incredible. Fuck it. I LOVE IT ALL!!!!
They have the best lyrics out there... i love their play on words...pure poetry
I dunno why but this music heals my heart.
2017 and still listening to Therein!
dios.... qe grandes son!
yo los vi ace dos dias en vigo y son flipantes
Я приторчал! Голос у солиста ахеренный! Да и музыка крутая! Вообще все круто!
2023 near bevore CHRISTMAS and this song is for me a evergreen! This band is a milestone, unbelievebal, and this band scribes history! I like it so much!
my very first melodeath band and i still love it
Can't believe this only has 1.8million views.
Best melodeath band on the planet!! 🤘
i think this is one of their best songs. And the lyrics... they are absolutely brilliant. Swedish metal rules, indeed. Especially DT!
Glad to have seen them live at least once and have sung this masterpiece with tears in my eyes!
The way Stanne sings clean, is how i imagine god talking xD
20 years ago I discovered a great band called Dark Tranquillity. This song was the starting point. And they are still going strong today!
De mis rolas favoritas del mundo mundial!
The first sounds of DT heard.
The sounds that cannot be unheard.
Oh, even live is this song so unbelievable more awesome.... \m/
wow, this is the first DT song i listen with clean vocals
HAIL FROM COLOMBIA!
I really wish labels would sort out a decent budget for Melodic Death Metal bands. I know this was 1998 but even recently only really Insomnium have eye catching videos that match the songs where as most others are just concert extracts.
the best piece DT...
breath...
This song is about taking a dump: "...it was solid, yet everchanging, oh it was different..."
I really love this song! But every line of the song you can refer for having an epic dump!
+Guy Dahan dude why ? just why .
+Chayma Ayadi it was different, yet the same. So I starve myself for energy.
+Guy Dahan Mind=blown
lmfao, haven't heard this song for years then i come back and read that.. before I even get a minute in..
omg I wish I could go back to '99 and hear this for the first time again..... I couldn't get the CD outta my jvc kaboom box. I rocked it everywhere!.....the clean vocals the guitar sounds.... woow!!
Excelentes!!!!
Music that inspires. The beautiful always gives birth to perfection.
Juat woke up today before the end of 2023 and my brain cells asking me to play this after at least 10 years
2023 and ready to witness this marvel in Wacken festival!!! 🤘🏾
i think that Dark Tranquillity is one of those bands which just evolves on for each record, Fiction is probably my favourite album of all time, each track is fucking amazing.
Why 240p?! This is a MASTERPIECE!
TB brought me here. This is by far my favorite of the DT songs I listened to on his recommendation:)
2024 anyone?
yessss
@@furmigadub yes man. This masterpiece is Immortal.
I’m in 2038! Still listening!!
2025 here
Me
After listening to this song for years, listening to this high while watching the video is so euphoric
