@Dušan Janek He has the right to be proud, since this kind of heavy and melodic death metal music hasn't really been done before. Of course, you might like the raw swedish death metal and the instrumentalists here might not be as virtuosic as, say, Steve Vai, but one simply cannot deny the innovation and uniqueness of the heavy music that At The Gates, In Flames and Dark Tranquility wrote. By the way, I see you have replied on many comments below this video. It is highly advised for you to keep this kind of negative feedback to yourself, since the people that admire this music, simply can't keep the bullshit you spill in their heads.
@@biologiskt As a fellow metal lover and Estonian neighbour, I salute you and express my graditude towards the metal musicians in your homecity for still making the crushing and heavy music since the '90s.
It blew my mind back in 97 or so. I heard Under a Serpent Sun mixed with some song from Carcass' Swansong (I loved it too) and some Cathedral, all of them new to me, and liked them all, but when I listened the whole record and it began like this... 😲 Similar to first time I heard Jason Becker Mabel's fatal fable, or Steve Vai's Fire Garden Suite.
that is exactly what i mean. that chord progression (I - VI - V) is very common among metalcore bands as well. examples might be avenged sevenfold - unholy confessions, asking alexandria - the final episode, as i lay dying - through struggle (AILD kicks ass btw) and many others.
Wow this brings me back. Was fortunate enough to see them in Toronto at the Opera House on their final slaughter tour.Absolutely amazing. Oh shit look! There's the whole show to the right! --- >
I tried to play this. My guitar died from the awesomeness of the intro riff. I better get me one of those guitars.... they seem to handle the brutality.
you talking about the riff style? i dont know if they have a particular name but consist of palm muting the lowest string for the "bass" while the melody comes through the higher strings. this band is probably the earliest i've heard to have this style riff.
@Lyle Gentleman I saw him in October. He does not have the power of the recording of this album or this live performance, however I think his voice has aged pretty well.
probably one of the 10-20 best songs in deathmetal history !
agreed, hell yeah \m/
Probably? More like definetly
Other?
@@a.od-reszki4674 Crystal Mountain, Ivth crusade, dreaming in red, Maze of torment, Annihilation of the wicked are some that come to my mind.
@Dušan Janek Scandinavians made Death Metal become more harder and melodic
This album was so far ahead of its time!!!!!
A 10/10 masterpiece
guitar tone is crushing!!
@Dušan Janek Bruh what? They tune to B standard. That's plenty low for melodic death metal, lots of bands tune to that.
@@themightymcb7310 that guy is a joke man. He's just replying hate comment
@Dušan Janek get over yourself.
So original sound, proud to be swedish \,,/
Helt Fläng you are honored to be born in the DEATH METAL NATION 🤟🏽
Painkiller488 X Even born and raised in Gothenburg. The true melodic death metal godfather city!
Dušan Janek in flames, at the gates and dark tranquility. Thats enough and yes im proud of those.

I am so proud to be from Gothenburg. At the Gates, you fucking legends.
Slaughter of Soul is like the unreachable blueprint .. It is an icon. And it truly is..
One of the best performances I've ever seen live, so glad I was there to witness this in the flesh
mephisto40 same here, this gig was freekin great, seing them again tomorrow night -violent mosh-
In "the flesh" Thats BLASPHEMY!!!!

one of the pioners of the death melodic metal.
Holy shit! 1st time ive ever seen Tomas without a hat!
Does Corpsegrinder have a twin on guitar? Lol
How Anders is looking like George?!
@@ericvalverderosado2046 Well i guess he refers to the neck come on !
Lol, you made me laugh
Anda another one no bass guitar
Comments like that are already boring. Times have changed.
this came out in 95, dude...
The song did. This is a live performance in 2008
His point is that this song was about 15 years ahead of it's time.

Still fresh

this is undeniably good. Even if you only like country you cant deny this song
So harmonically great album.. I rate it 5th among best metal albums.
At The Gates, Dark Tranquillity and In Flames pioneer of Melodic Death
short and to to the point, one of teh greatest songs ever, I love At the Gates
first metal song I learned on guitar, that was one of the hardest weeks in my life, but all fuck it was worth it :D
@Dušan Janek sb
Hah! The crowdsurfing guy at 2:52, that's me! Totally worth it. Kickass show they did back there
love it ! one of the best Songs i´ve ever heard
the first guitar solo i ever learned!!!!
ITS 2021 and this song is still amazing!
2023
The fathers of melodic death metal 🤘
Wow this brings me back. Was fortunate enough to see them in Toronto at the Opera House on their final slaughter tour.Absolutely amazing. Oh shit look! There's the whole show to the right! --- >
just a totally kick ass album...still crankworthy after all these years.
One of the best death metal songs/bands ever!
no need for gym, cardio or any of that if your a drummer in this band.
@Dušan Janek ????????? Fuck you
@Unhallowed Yes, very solid, he used to drum for Cradle of Filth too.
Slaughter of the soul is for me the best melodic death metal album.
Back when most death metal sounded like it was recorded on a yakbak in a tin can, atg came out with this album and changed the world forever
There were countless great sounding death metal records when this came out….😒😒😒
we are blind to the world within us, waiting to be born
I tried to play this.
My guitar died from the awesomeness of the intro riff.
I better get me one of those guitars.... they seem to handle the brutality.
These sounds in the beginning make me shiver because I know what mayhem is about to come...
My first death metal experience, and my life changed forever.
Holy shit their vocal sounds 10 times better live. Can't wait to see them live at May.
Amazing band. Influenced so many young guitarist. This is how you riff!
one of the best metal bands to ever exist
Best metalcore band
when chuck norris vocals its sounds as amazing as this
Best old school band ever !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
duuuude this is freaking gold 😩
It's a damn shame how this band is underrated..
The best bands come from Sweden, end of story. I'm so proud to live here!
220 Thumbs up and not a damn thumbs down. WELL DONE UA-cam. WELL DONE.
At The Gates and The Absence are my favorite melodic death metal bands! \m/

This song is killing me every fucking time!
What they failed to get on video was the crowd-induced Wall of Death at the beginning of the song. That one was brutal.
me pareció ver la bandera de MÉXICO!!! Y AHUEVOOOOOOOOO EN EL CIRCO VOLADOR TODOS QUEDAREMOS BLINDED BY FEAR!!!!!!!!!!
That's real metal 🤘🤘🤘
BRUTAAAAAAAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tralalallala-metal! Horrat!

That crowd singing!
Very very good...when you come in Rome?
Only ginger that has a soul.
A-MA-ZING !!!
esto es excelente !!!
great band
@onsatube this is music, have you ever heard of it?
1:58 sickest moment of the video
@Corpzmaker91 Those are Caparison's mang! I saw ATG on this tour when they played in San Antonio. Brutal indeed.
The singer sounds better live.
It's just a different technique.
@Lyle Gentleman I saw him in October. He does not have the power of the recording of this album or this live performance, however I think his voice has aged pretty well.
his vocal is much better than the album version
Nice shirt Mr Lindbergh
And I was there, it was fucking awesome!!!
I WILL THIS SONG AT MY FUNERAL !!!!!!!!!!!!
