- Pre-order "Under A Godless Veil" now: smarturl.it/UnderAGodlessVeil-NR
Out October 30
Almost five years after the release of their latest long-player Sovran, DRACONIAN announce the release of their new epos, Under a Godless Veil, out October 30, 2020 via Napalm Records.
The upcoming full-length delivers a captivating mélange of dreary doom and contrasting vocals and is the second offering featuring stunning singer Heike Langhans. The first notes of the opener will immediately draw the listener into a void of interweaving beauty, coalescing with paralyzing depression that leaves nothing but the desire of total immersion in the whole record. Under a Godless Veil carries the legacy of gothic doom metal à la My Dying Bride into a new decade of the genre.
DRACONIAN states:
“To DRACONIAN, Under a Godless Veil is by far the most diverse album we have created. Inspired by some of the music closest to Johan’s heart; everything from traditional Doom to scaled-down, Gothic rock-inspired pieces and more. Some will perhaps describe the songs as more refined and meditative. Some ambient elements have been added to the mix without overshadowing the traditional characteristics that are DRACONIAN.
Resonating with the compositions, Anders’s lyrical direction is ambiguous and a progression of the first two-three albums, yet more subtle while embracing the Gnostic philosophy more directly. One could say Under a Godless Veil is an act of contemplation; About living and dying and remembering who we are in a strange, abrasive world far from home.“
Under A Godless Veil tracklist:
1. Sorrow of Sophia
2. The Sacrificial Flame
3. Lustrous Heart
4. Sleepwalkers
5. Moon Over Sabaoth
6. Burial Fields
7. The Sethian
8. Claw Marks On The Throne
9. Night Visitor
10. Ascend Into Darkness

I don't know how would I survive if metal genre wasn't exist
This good shit gets me
You know you love Draconian when you are willing to press the like button without even listening to the song first. It's so much beauty, it makes me happy, thank you
That is accectly what i did. Pushing the like button before i heard the track. Didn't regret the action
I absolutely love Heike's voice!
Me too 😍
Same here. Hauntingly Beautiful. ❤️
Can't say u other than that !!
While it is great to have a new Draconian song, releasing a "single" 6 months before the album release is pure torture.That said, Anders has THE best rough vox in the business.
The growls remind me of Be'Lakor a bit.
@Terminal Frost Great screams but don't know about the best. There are so many greats like James Dorton from Black Crown Initiate for instance.
Heike is the Best.
We've waited what, 5 years since Sovran came out? We can make it 6 months! \m/
4 months down the road, i can totally understand. we've had 3 awesome songs since this was released. and I'm really looking forward to the album
This band is so underrated. Other doom bands might have more media presence, but that doesn't mean that this band isn't killing it. I wish My Dying Bride sounded like this often.
but on the other hand, i feel like being less known might even work in their favor, probably less pressure from Napalm and more freedom as compared to the bigger names that has to sell x amount each time
agreed
@@konobuzoggu239 it tottaly makes sense, amazing explained.
I knew this band since their first works in 2005, very unique style and great goth work
I do not want MDB to sound like this, please let them keep their own identity! Love both bands btw.
Too short song! But loved it ❤ Heike and Anders voice are magical together
wtf? You are so look alike my exgf. :o
I know, right? Doom Metal songs have an average length of something like 8 minutes.
@@asscher10 Me? Hahah so creepy!
@@MichaelBradley1967 yes but I think we should keep in mind that Draconian isn't a pure doom metal band
Heike it's no longer with da band !
Everything about this band is influential and sacred of another type.
this new song is so agressive and sweet
really , i dont know a bad song from them
.. anders voice is just more than amazing .. love from syria 🤘🏻🖤
لقيتك
كمشتك
لقطتك
مسكتك
سوريا 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻 من وين الشباب؟ انا من الشام وساكن بجورجيا
This has the same hypnotic, sad but consoling vibe that I loved about Sovran. Beautiful - looking forward to the album release!
My favorite band. Hail Draconian 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Heike's voice is as hauntingly beautiful as always ♥
You are the star You are the moon
You are the soil where shadows bloom
Casting a light which brings me peace
Where the caverns of death will freeze
Speaking to you Draconian
Your comment brings light to that while the music is excellent, the lyrics pale in comparison to older ablums IMO.
@@raktor1996 Not really... While this one is short, be told that this seems to be a concept album. However, the lyrics are already able to carry its own mean. While almost always embedded in metaphysics and classical literature topics, their lyrics have become more multilayered and nuanced, which brings more levels of meanings and ideas. Actually, now they are more skillful, lyrics-wise.
Go and listen (and read) carefully Dishearten for example: a short story, where singers' roles get switched on the last part, like in a plot twist! Or Pale Tortured Blue, which also has "a revelation moment" (it's like an "upgraded" version of Not Breathing).
@@yibril17 When I said older albums i meant Sovran too. It is this song in particular that I don't like the lyrics of, it doesn't have any coherence in my opinion. Maybe the complete album will be better.
@@raktor1996 Take this as a gentle advise: please don't get to conclusions or judgements whenever something isn´t understood... Instead be kind and humble to consider not being knowledgeable enough to "connect the dots". Therefore read, learn and get the references... use incomprehension as a motive to get into poetry, classic authors, old philosophers...
I hate to do this, but I'll copy/paste what I answered to a comment from someone inquiring about the meaning of "bizantine hero".
Copy/paste:
Despite I think the song seems to be part of a concept album (see tracklist), some ideas/references are underlying here (quite a lot of them actually).
In the deepest, it can be read as the never-ending fight between the life pulsion (non-rational) and the knowledge (rational), the heart being the former, and Sophia the latter.
Knowledge brings self-conciousness, that in turn shows own finitude, and therefore sorrow. That´s when Sophia realises that ignorance was a bliss, and longs that innocence, finding the beauty in it (the heart).
Knowledge "was born" from life pulsion ("before they made you"), but Sophia doesn´t realise ("before they made you to forget"). This is metaphysical: in order to live, human developed rational thinking, which then ended up in "why to live? what purpose?" This translates to "the forgetting" of that original purpose that knowledge was supposed to be serving: to live...
Sophia (rational thinking/knowledge) fails to find an ultimate (evasive) purpose: the unknown (evasive) god. The heart, non-rational (life pulsion), is the one remembering Sophia of her failure: she's "a bizantine hero" (as opposed to a god) since she can´t escape from her limitations of the sensible existence ("you're not untouchable") yet the heart pushes her ("reach out and break the cosmic window").
i misssssss old draconian so deeply.....
To those who rightly pointed out the similarities between Heike's vocals in this song to Leah's from Trees of Eternity.
Heike and Aleah were friends. Heike actually was a guest vocalist for the band that was created after Trees of Eternity disbanded and all the lyrics were written by Aleah. Its pretty obvious Heike wanted to carry on her legacy in some way and I think that is a beautiful thing. Aleah was special and she will always be missed.
I miss her too!
Aleah's voice lives on in the voice of Heike, that's pure magic!
So melodic, I really love it, Heike's voice is a gift to the soul...
This is a masterpiece! Can't wait for the full album!
I've never had this amazing feeling since years. this brings me back to the 'best era' of metal. This song keeps giving me chills from the beginning to the end, wow. Such a masterpiece, one of the best songs i've ever heard in my entire life. I just love it so much, this is perfection in my opinion. So aggressive, deep, intense but at the same time so sweet, so doom, so melodic as i always loved. Heike and Anders voice, 10/10 as always. Love you Draconian, thank you seriously i'm so happy
You are never going to get world-shattering revelations of an album in the first song, has the sounds and music I wanted to hear, most important thing for me, you know its a Draconian song. Can't wait to hear more. Thank you Draconian.
Very nice song .. I love you Draconian .. I love you Napalm Records ...
Greetings from Syria ❤
Hauntingly beautiful. Another masterpiece from Draconian. ♥️
Draconian is what my heart and soul whispering. Oh, really can't wait to hear the entire album! 🎶
Finalmente, parece que estava faltando uma parte de mim que agora foi completa. Como sempre incríveis.
Wonderful!! Deep, dark, beautiful, magical, intense ...... it's PERFECT! 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
❤️
Another masterpiece from the Doom’s kings !!!!!!
So perfect, so beauty... Heike Singing like an angel. ❤️
One of the two best Death/Doom Bands ever... Draconian and Swallow the Sun!!! Both enlightening! Only rivaled by the monstrous 😍Katatonia😍 in this genre!!! Waited 5 years, and love the hell out of it!
Heike will never stop impressing me🖤
Esta musica es grandiosa, no tiene desperdicio. Magnifica cancion
I can hear Aleah in Heike's voice. No disrespect to Draconian, of course, I love them girls with their amazing voices.
And it's no wonder...
that was my first thought, that Heike's vocals remind me of Aleah
Oh my, yes.
So excited for this release! I absolutely adore the fact that this year Aleah's solo album will be released too!!!! 🥰
Oh yes!! you can tell she took inspiration. It sounds great! :)
Sorrow fullfills my heart. Not because the song sounds disappointing. It is is instead a prelude to the next masterpiece of this immense band. Sorrow fullfills my heart because Draconian are the band that my best friend most loved and he sadly passed away at the age of 47. LIstening to you reminds me of him....and sorrow fullfills my heart. RIP my friend!
Condolences on your loss, This type of Music Heals. Also, Hey if you like Draconian Check out czcams.com/video/XW4wFDB0mJ4/video.html NEW RELEASE from old school Gothic Doom Metal band SEVERED EDGES
dark, deep and tender, lulling song at the same time. Love it
Thanks to Johan's heart for this beautiful songs delivered by Draconian✌🏻️
It sounds like a typical Draconian song. Which means I love it. Beauty and power and darkness all blended together into a nightmare/ecstatic vision. Perfection.
This song is a masterpiece.
It is so rare so find so much sensibility and wise using in metal genre.
I'm absolutely obsessed with this song. It has all the right vocal and guitar flows in the exact...right places! love this band! 🖤🖤
I love this, its pure Draconian
Well looks like '90s atmospheric gothic metal still breathes!
Gothic Metal or Death-Doom?
I guess Draconian is both?
After Where Lovers Mourn Draconian has been legendary to me, just an amazing groundbreaking band that topped all my favourites instantly. And I can't believe they're still doing just as good. It's still consistent Draconian with new incredible vision and inspiration and I love you for being yourselves unwaveringly.
Somebody else felt a Behemoth vibe in the beginning? I loved that!
I have been listening to Draconian since 2003. And still to this day every album is distinct from the other, but yet always, always Draconian. I am psyched once again.!
I love Draconian - remind me 90`s gothic. I also hear Aleah voice vibe...
That song is pure brilliant, can't wait for the album!
"Before They made You,
Before they made you to forget " :' ...
Sums up everything, everything...
absolutely stunning. and as a Gnostic myself, the lyrical themes of this band resonate with me so greatly.
draconian always has a certain standard. you will never find your bad song. thats why am i falling draconian
this is pure Draconian. Amazing. Love it. can't wait for the full album.
great beautiful song ...no words...only feelings and love for the super band Draconian
I think it's a song of finding yourself and before they made you to forget who you really are and influence you with their belief system..
Everything is PERFECT ! This is not a melancholic song, this is a song full of emotions, an empowering one . My feeling is that is part of a ,,story" that will be unveiled together with the whole album release . I love the heaviness of the lirycs sang by Anders, words and sentences, right in your face . Heike is conclusioning each time , with her majestic atitude and voice . Though, this song is not for everybody....but i, LOVE it ! As always, this amazingly talented people, never disappoint ! For songs like this, and many more , we love DraconiaN, one of the best bands in this world ! /,,/
Someone understand it 100% *blessings* You rock, Andrei
@@Endemion01 Thank YOU , and all DraconiaN members, YOU are fkin' great !!!
Oh people, read the tracklist!!! Track 1: Sorrow of Sophia... I might be wrong, but this appears to be kind of a concept album... which wouldn't be something new for the authors of Arcane Rain Fell ;)
I'm a couple years late to hearing this...better late than never. One of my favorite bands now. Haven't heard one damn song from them that wasn't filled with what we all seek from this genre.
One of best doom gothic metal 🖤
Desde que conheci essa banda, não paro de ouvir, esse álbum está perfeito! Saudações Draconian do 🇧🇷🤟🌌
Temos o mesmo nome, mesma forma de escrever...Quase pensei que fosse eu🤣🤣🤣🤪
@@tamiresgranja5375 e o mesmo gosto musical 🤟
Pois é, trata-se der música pra sair sonhando mesmo...👍❤️
Listening to this new song by Draconian, Heike Langhans has something of a style similar to Aleah, it is clear that Heike is very original, she also sings beautiful and she is also a very beautiful woman and this style of gothic music, doom and a little atmospheric will always remind us our dear Aleah too.
Thank you draconian waited so long for this
Definitely a work of art. It is a pleasure that you are back. I love without a doubt every melody they give us. Long Draconian life 🖤
Now this is what real music is right here love from the U.S
Brilliant, excellent and beautiful as always.
A muito tempo eu tava esperando por isso. A voz do Anders fica melhor com o tempo e a Heike cantando é muito lindo, surreal.
Heike is the key of magic
It is so amazing. So dark, So deep, so melancholic, so Dracionian.
It is going to be an amazing album.
It keeps alive the best era of metal.
I was scared metal will be overcome by the generic edgy poppy sound masacrated as metal, many big names take.
The metal still breaths.
I lived under a rock, why did i found them today?
Love the feels on this record. Sort of like a meditative gothic doom metal vibe that I totally dig. They are killing it with this record!
Draconian sempre perfeito 🤟🤟🤟🇧🇷
My favorite thing about this song is I can't tell whether the clean vocals in the hook are threatening or calming. Which makes it all the more haunting.
After multiple replays, it's obvious I'm addicted to your music, guys. You live in my heart. I feel so lucky that I met you in person during your last magical live concert in Athens. Best wishes with your new album, I'm sure it's another masterpiece.
OMG!!!! I love Draconian 💖
Amazing it was worth it 5 years waiting Great vocals Anders & Heike and of course the Draconian touch, Beautifullllllll.
Listening this while raining it is a pleasure
Divinity. It's beyond any comments. Just perfect and so touching!
I fell in love with this song... you guys are amazing!! Love your work!
Finally! thanks you so much! I can't wait to the release date! Excellent concept for lyrics! love it!!!
YES! I LISTEN DRACONIAN FROM 2008...THEY ARE GOOD WITH WHISKEY
Turning season within still one of my best
Isso sim é música, senhores 🖤🐦
Too much love from Egypt! 🖤
Love their magical timeless music, the combination of those vocals is so fine that it's fantastic...
THANK YOU!! You made my day
This song is more than epic. Great atmosphere. Reminds me Swallow The Sun a bit.
Esperando con impaciencia. Saludos.
Oh my goodness!😍🙏 this song made me shiver in my soul. aggressiveness and tranquility in a single vortex of emotion. pretty! looking forward to October.
Sounds awesome, thank you for dropping this bomb of amazingness.
It's gonna be a long few months until the new album drops, but I'm very lucky to have all your previous albums already so they make the wait worth it. Lots of amazing music to listen to. Stay awesome everyone!
Pure eargasm!
Very beautiful song , bravo Draconian ,Heike is killing with her voice, ❤❤❤❤ from mauritius.
Perfect as always, can't wait for the new album to be released!
DRACONIAN in my heart ♥️
Oh, Lustrous Heart
Persevere through life
And dishonor
The tears of sophia
Remind you
How beautiful you were
Before they made you
Before they made you to forget
Before they made you,
Before they made you
Unknown god head down low falling snow
Unknown god head down low to the fallen snow
You’re not untouchable byzantine hero
Reach out and break the cosmic window
Brink back a deity
Of boundary eradication
And ultimate freedom
Total recall
And paradises lost
Comes crashing down
Before They made You,
Before they made you to forget
Before They made You,
Before they made you
Unknown god head down low falling snow
Unknown god head down low into the fallen snow
Into the fallen snow
You’re not untouchable byzantine hero
Reach out and break the cosmic Window
You’re not untouchable.
It's a lyric video duuuuuude...
@@TheChainsofAlice Really? 😧
Absolutely beautiful! Can't wait for the album.
What a great morning to wake up to a new Draconian release. This sounds great I'm really looking forward to this album.
I already want the next album can't get enough
Loving DRACONIAN in TeXAS
🖤
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻 Love it as usual ! Can't wait to listen to the full album 🖤🖤🖤
Finally new Draconian stuff. And again more in the direction of "A Rose for the Apocalypse" and in terms of style. Not that "Sovran" was bad, but the album was different and that, what I loved about Draconian was missing.
A Rose for apocalypse is brilliant ...best od The best draconian album ever.
Huh, pretty rare to see someone who holds ARftA so highly and Sovran so low. Personally I'd put Sovran as my favourite album of theirs alongside Arcane Rain Fell and ARftA at the bottom, although Wall of Sighs is still one of the best tracks Draconian have put out. Still one of the few bands I can't think of a single bad song for however.
Som maravilhoso!!! 🤩😍
Keep feeding us pure music 🖤🖤 can't imagine my life without your music 🙏
Increíble, nunca decepcionan!!!
Loved Draconian from the first moment I heard them.
holy finally a new track !!! love the song,love the lyrics,love the fact that they're using the old logo , love everything about this
Thank you for creating such deep and artistic pieces of music. You add something worthwhile to the world. 👍👍👍
Beautiful! I know for sure this album will be worth the wait!
Absolutely great! Love this song a lot! Love Draconian a lot!
So excited for this new album! The song is amazing as expected. Freaking love this band
Really looking forward to this album.
Saindo do fôrno...Draconian não decepciona nunca. A Heike substituiu perfeitamente a Lisa. Amei! 💜
Eu nunca prestei muita atenção nessa banda, mas agora sou fã!! Eles realmente têm algo especial no som!
