Wow, it took me couple of times and reading some comments to begin to make sense of this incredible piece of art!
I see this as a genius visual of how cults can suck people in. And to be honest, in a lot of 'spiritual circles' which are less extreme than cults, the same type of toxic dynamics are present. Manipulative language, confusing messages ... people who are vulnerable and searching for healing often get seduced by spiritual guru's who love power and lack integrity. It's a massive problem, in my eyes
Lyrics:
No pressure at all
None whatsoever
You do what you want
We only offer
A place to heal
A space to be
Whatever you need
Let's bring it in
Aahh
Enjoy
And join
Us
Oh I don't really want anything
I guess
Could I find some peace within?
For my soul to reconnect with my...
The answer lies with you
I'm sure you'll find your truth
Whether with or without us
You know what to do
You know where to find us
Whatever you choose
Enjoy
And join
Us
I don't know if I believe
But maybe you could teach me how to heal?
Get me out of my head and into my body
I mean, if you think that I'm ready?
They weave my conscience so forgiving
I never knew what I was missing
One love and what not
At least there's space to ease the knot
Are you ready?
Nice and steady
Are you?
Are you?
Are you?
Are you?
Yes
makes me want to put this song in an oddly-named spotify playlist so that katrine might show it in a story
We need Kalandra in the US, Hopefully somewhere near me in South Carolina, or North Carolina, i can travel lol.
Great song, and the video is a perfect little slice of folk horror a la Wicker Man and Midsommar
Another Banger!! Kalandra is my band of 2024
Mine too and hopefully, many more years to come.
i listen to "the Line" probably 3-4 times a week, usually while working.. love the entire thing. Give me more! This is a band i will buy the next album sight unseen or heard
I was born ready for Kalandra
Deep lyrics and Steven Wilson's vibes... Love it!
I like this prog-rock direction. Reminds me a bit of Porcupine Tree but with a completely fresh nordic twist.
I'm a huge Steven Wilson and Porcupine Tree fan and Kalandra definitely scratches the same itch for me even when they're not flirting with prog. Similar dark melancholic vibe.
Great track, lots of power and love your vocals💚
Only now I noticed you guys are on the awaken journey. It's so wonderful to see artists like you spreading the words to ascension.
I'm sending you all love and light 💕 this journey is not easy but definitely worth it 💕
Strong Midsommar vibes here
Wow. Well done. Echoes of the 70s visually, still relevant today.
✨😱😈 sublime song😈😱✨👏👏👏
I'd listen to this more than twice.
Monumental job guys 🙌 the musicvid felt really sectish, like some Pre/Post-Apocalyptical cult vibe rite there, nice production so bombastic job to the visual crewe aswell ✨🤩
midsummer vibes
Absolutley awesome❤❤❤
❤❤❤
Ohhh I’m really fan of your music
See you in Sopot soon guys 😊
September 13th, 1999: Moon flew away from its orbit around Earth. And it was immediately marvel.
September 13th, 2024: a new galactic marvel will came to be heard. And yes, I love this song! Feed the flame
Amazing track! Also, holy crap, you guys signed with the guys from Enslaved? WOW! I knew some of you must be black metal fans. Instant vinyl pre-order!
✨✨✨✨✨
🤍
Yes. We need more Kalandra!
always
Yes!❤
Midsommar vibes. Lovely song btw. Love from Flensburg.
I was just about to post this lol.
I was just about to post this lol.
Totally what I thought when I first saw this...
I'm ready🤍
Your music is like paintings of old masters. Deep and rich.
Wonderfully ominous song and a great video! We need more chickens in music videos...
Was hoping our beautiful protagonist would keep running at the end! Gorgeous track. Another beautiful video too. Can't wait for the full album. Kalandra never disappoints.
I was hoping the same. But that's not the message here....
Argh don't do this to me , i cant wait no more.😫
Beautiful 🐓
💫surprisingly good💫, I really like it and I'm looking forward to October 13th and have a nice weekend everyone🤗🤘
We getting into a cult with this one 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Gorgeous song, looking forward to the album!! ❤
This song makes me do all of the above actually, it makes me smile, think, headbang/dance, and makes me incredibly excited for the album!!! ☆
Argh cant wait ❤❤❤
This songs (like Bardaginn) are taking more of a Gaian doom, dark folk path...and I love it. The overall writing of music and vocals is just smart and well done! Can't wait for the full album ^^
The end of the song with the drummer going absolutely ham is going to pop off live, brillant!!
The whole thing is brilliant. The songs got the best of prog and folk, without going off the deep end of either. Its attention getting and unsettling. And the video perfectly represents a fringe religion thats maybe strayed into cult territory. The director is a genius. No gripes at all, nearly flawless!
Great music and so much beautiful video!
Just randomly stumbled upon your music via some metal website, I’m glad I did! Amazing track.
slightly more complex guitar riffs which still blend amazingly with the music are great to hear! :)
Trying to understand. What's this supposed to represent or message trying to convey?
Yeah, would be nice if those that made it spelled it out. I'm kinda sick of all the riddles...
I am curious too!
I am! ❤
There is so much variety in Kalandra's songs, every new release is another beautiful surprise - and Oskar's drums are a blast as always, see you in Budapest!
I love kalandra🙈❣️, I love u guys, u are the Best... greetings from Chile 🇨🇱 , can't wait the álbum 🧝🏻♀️🌱✨
Otro chileno!!! Holiii! XD
Holiwis🎉 ❤
Midsommar vibes.
You are absolutely one of my favourite groups!!! The Line is probably my favourite album of any group of all time. Lots of love from South Africa.
I love Kalandra. Music is amazing and official videos are among best I've ever seen. Superb!
Creepy
It reminds me a novel called "Strega"...cult vibes and all...as someone with a fair share of religious trauma, I was really hoping that the young woman would be able to run away in the end, but then there would be no food for thoughts, right? Anyway, great song as usual ❤
Was that her being brought back at the end, arms kinda bound? I'm terrible, I can't hardly tell any of them apart...
I love the energy here. A harmonious mystical emotional expression that come from deep within. Feels like something that needs to come out, and, and came out beautifully.
🩶 I'm ready 🩶
Kalandra Videos aren't often easy but work like bucket of ice cold water.
Whoa!!! I didn't expect this 😳😳😳 Now I'm ready to hear the rest of the that's coming
I had the chance to see them live in my city's ancient theatre. Magical! This song brought the feeling back.
Oh this is a super cool song! Kalandra manage to blow my mind every time and i cannot wait to see them live ❤❤
Am I the only one who is confused at the video but loved the song?
it's commentary on cult behavior
@@alexevanspoppsychedelicren4158 exactly...looked like a cult to me...like all white and smiles, you don't know what you're getting into..then BAM
🤔 Kinda like our g.
@@alexevanspoppsychedelicren4158 So the lyrics are also about cult behavior?
@@goblinsdammit yes
Yes ...that's what I thought
Love the lowkey sinister atmosphere paired with those lyrics! I've known people who said those kinds of things just the same way.
I only recently got introduced to these. This tune has been on repeat all day. Just divine in every way ❤
I haven’t been this happy for new music in such a long time
Does anyone knows what the hands Symbol in the song mean? It just got me overwhelmed and curious
I see a hole, and horns... I'm not qualified in any of this sort of occult stuff, but I don't trust ANY it... Maybe my reply will piss off some know it all that can't keep their mouth shut and "dispell" my "ignorance" for us all. 🤞😅
Midsommar and Elden Ring vibes unlocked in the same music video 🤣
Yes
This reminds me Midsomar 01:09
Mindsummer vibe ?
Was about to say that, too ^^
what is this hand symbol that you all made? does it mean anything?
Pasted from my reply to another comment, hope you don't mind- I'm going for visibility here to hopefully answer our question:

They are just portraying people in a cult. Cults are known to use symbols. The hand gesture doesn't mean anything in the real world, it's made up for the video.
wowwwww
Ooooooooh.... ❤
Oh yes I am ready. I am so ready for this album, I am so ready for the upcoming tour. See you guys in southern France!
This is next level craft
Brilliantly Scored ⭐️ Sweeping and Mystical. Congratulations ⭐️🩵
Glorious as always :D Can't wait to hear it live.
Shivers! I'm fuckin ready.
So deeply moved by this...
I'm so grateful to constantly be inspired by you! (*the sign*)
Ready for a short briefing about assignment prelims, rules of engagement? 😅
Those drums went so hard at the end 🔥🔥🔥
🎧▶🎶✨
I'm really loving the heavy tones... Greatings from Perú 🇵🇪
One of my favorite bands ❤❤
Strong song Kalandra.
I love everything about this! The song, the music video, the vibe. Every song you put out is so unique and perfect it it's own way. Katrine's voice is just out of this world, can't wait for the new album and to see you live again!
Fantastic!... Puts me in mind of the Alanis Morissette track 'Forgiven' 💖
Yeah! New music! 🥰
I'm ready for Kings Cross, September. Can't wait.
1:40 ¿John Stenersen de Gåte? Espero que sea una señal de una futura colaboración, estaría genial.
Love It!!! 🎉 Xoxo from México!!
Such a good song! Can't wait to see the video!
🤩
you guys have bloody done it again. the ragnarok / kalandra pairing is just lethally fantastic.
Fantastisk låt! Fantastisk video!
I think i'm in love.. again. Can't wait to see you guys in september in Paris ❤
Haha je ne savais pas qu'ils passaient à Paris, merci ! Je m'y déplace justement dès le dimanche pour voir Heilung le mardi. Merci beaucoup pour l'info !
Amazing music and video!
What a master piece... 🧘♂
time and time again. Kalandra just hits it out of the park
The cult of Kalandra?
Yes
This is GOLD already 💖 love You KALANDRA
I love it. Thank you for sharing a bit of your souls
Love the tight vocal harmonies and wall-of-sound guitars. Katrine's black veiled outfit looks like it belongs in Elden Ring.
Is there some significance to that sign with the hands, or is it just meant to be creepy?
