    Order "Prevail I" now: smarturl.it/Prevail-I-NPR
    iTunes: smarturl.it/Prevail-I-DL
    It's been three years since Kobra And The Lotus' last studio album 'High Preistess' was released back in 2014. The time since has not been wasted, with their third album under their belt, and completing multiple tours worldwide (with the likes of Kamelot, Sonata Arctica and Demon Hunter to name a few), their path of self-discovery has led them to this most important moment in their career. 'Prevail I", the band's latest offering, is a rock juggernaut full of blistering guitars, pounding rhythms and haunting vocal melodies that will take the listener on a sonic journey leading them out from the darkness and into the light. Produced by Jacob Hansen (Volbeat, Amaranthe, Epica etc) and mastered by Grammy award winning Ted Jensen, and featuring the soon to be classic songs “You Don’t Know” and “Light Me Up” that will undoubtedly usher the band to much deserved elevated hard rock status. Evolution is inevitable and Kobra And The Lotus have delivered their most powerful album to date, PREVAIL I, with PREVAIL II to complete the story in the not too distant future...

    I've watched this video at least 50 times and I've cried every single time. This is music that heals and we all could use a little compassion. Thank you so very much !!!!!!

      Oh yes , love these guys, my wife died next to me in the middle of the night. I woke up to total silence! Toughest day of my life , then shortly after my youngest committed suicide. Oh yes l hear u . But still l know God knows what he is doing in our lives . Not just wishful thinking but power ,clarity and authority. GOD KNOWS WHAT HE IS DOING, I'm not afraid! 😊

    There are no words... no words for me to give Justice for this song, and this video. I am 51, I have fought depression for 40 years. While my home life was decent... parts of this surely hit me. Thank you for making it. I greatly appreciate it. Much love... be safe.

      If you're having a hard time, if life has you beat down. Listen to this track as many times as you need to and stand up. Stay in the fight ......hardship makes you stronger. Do not lose hope and never ever quit. Thank you CATL.

    Lyrics:
    Watching you sitting there alone again
    The pain is eating you alive
    You're suffering
    Wonder If I'll ever see you whole again
    If I had just one wish, I'd take it all away
    Don't let go
    I'll find you in the darkness
    I need you
    Light up for me
    Don't let go
    I'll find you in the darkness
    Never leave you
    Light up for me
    Open up, I'll be your light
    Just let me in
    I'd give it all just to hear your laughter again
    You're the one, the only one that made me feel
    I want it back, the light you had
    Hold on to me!
    Don't let go
    I'll find you in the darkness
    I need you
    Light up for me
    Don't let go
    I'll find you in the darkness
    Never leave you
    Light up for me
    I know the weight of the pain you feel
    I'll share your burden, I'll help you heal
    Don't let go
    I'll find you in the darkness
    I need you
    Light up for me
    Don't let go
    I'll find you in the darkness
    Never leave you
    Light up for me
    Light up for me
    Light up for me

    I have never heard such precise operatic vocals. I'm loving every track. This lead singer is the undisputed Queen of the metal ballad. She is able to communicate emotion through each song. I have heard a lot of metal ( which I love) and a lot of good lead vocals, but she I would describe as ultimate and epic. What a beautiful voice! Unfortunately, so good, that once your done with a track, you're like "well, I just listened to the greatest song ever, nothin left to look forward to " Napalm has a winner here...

    I am a big fan of KATL and this song is beautiful and the video is powerful. Its release couldn't have come at a better time than now as unfortunately we lost a great musician yesterday to suicide. I think it has made more people aware of the battle people can have with mental health and depression. Great job to all involved.

    I was bullied years ago because I was different (autism) no one ever helped me, and it went the same way as this boy in this song, so it was hard for me, but at the last moment I figured out this kind of music and it saved my life !!! Because of that I talked about people what was wrong with me and they finally understood me and helped me!!!!

Some of the lyrcis just nail it. How you feel when your down. At times only dark thoughts come in. When I can, plan to get this album and support the group. WELL DONE and thank you. Have played this a lot last few weeks.

    At the age of 8 my whole world changed. I got fitted for glasses. I was tormented at school, called 4-eyes, tripped, beat up.
    If not for my family being the Beacon of hope, my Lighthouse to help #illuminatethepath for me, who knows. That's why I always smile to everyone and say the greeting of the day.
    I don't strive to be a good human, but a Great Human. It doesn't cost anything to be the Light for others.

    This song wrenches on me so much. That little boy was me for so long. I found refuge in music and my toys. I felt empty and so alone. That feeling creeps in from time to time. I'm so thankful for this song to remind me of what used to be for me, but children still go through this. My faith in God and my grandparents helped hold it together. I pray this band catapults into the stars and last for a very long time.

    I feel like it’s the story of a mother trying to reach her son from the other side, having passed on and leaving him behind with his alcoholic and abusive father (and either a step mother or his father’s girlfriend). The boy gets bullied at school and feels completely alone, and the mother is able to reach him by taking the form of a child to keep him from jumping in that last scene.

I have so many reasons why I stay, and those outweigh any reason to leave this world.
