Lyrics: Shadowminds
One side of this watershed moment
Left the fair and true objective far behind
For fear of facing what rationale resigns to
The thought of you alone with demons on your mind
Ravaging the nerves
Overtaking consciousness
What was said and what was done
Now haunt the witching hour
Let the now begin today
To the past a swift farewell
Innocence is nothing
When shadowminds prevail
Let the fear be gone today
To oblivion we cast it down
When shadowminds prevail
Let go of this, the embers of the day
Bring not the fire to the combustible night
Rather have the anger extinguish the flames
Than numbing chemicals to keep it at bay
Ravaging the nerves
Overtaking consciousness
What was said and what was done
Now haunt the witching hour
Let the now begin today
To the past a swift farewell
Innocence is nothing
When shadowminds prevail
Let the fear be gone today
To oblivion we cast it down
When shadowminds prevail
Let the now begin today
To the past a swift farewell
Innocence is nothing
When shadowminds prevail
Let the fear be gone today
To oblivion we cast it down
When shadowminds prevail
Let the now begin
To oblivion we cast you down
Innocence is nothing
Don't let shadowminds prevail

I'm with Antonio, this song is great and doesn't need an over the top solo.
Song is Dark Tranquillity with golden era In Flames guitar work. Works for me.
It would be cool if in the rest of the album we can have more of that Golden Era In Flames guitar work... from Lunar Strain until Colony :)
@@josepedro3687 indeed. In Jesper We Trust!
@@josepedro3687 you would need Glenn Ljungström and a Bjorn for that guitar work. Jesper is amazing at melody and it was complimented by the aforementioned two. You don’t get the three together, you don’t get golden era in flames sound.
@@dmphax Amen!
exactly. Beautiful, just beautiful
The song doesn't have a solo, it's just a very nice harmonized melody.
Every great metal song needs a solo!
Holy crap, this is just so beautiful. Cant wait for the debut album!
I love the fact that anto holds his grounds! Keep it up buddy and noce review as always guys!!
If this was 4 years ago when we started the channel, he would fold like a cheap chair. I am happy to see him disagree and hold his opinion firmly.
@@APREACTS It's just been 4 years since you started the channel?? Wow, it feels like he grew a decade's worth in that time, since those first few videos. Incredible.
The changes are incredible in a 4 year span
@@APREACTS yeah i noticed pedro, i follow you since couple years and yes anto is growing nicely i would say. Must be the father 😉☺️
Thank you
I was so excited hearing this song for the first time, that I didn’t even remember hearing a solo. Lol. I had to listen to it again, to fully hear the song. I loved the song! I’m just soaking up hearing music from these legends, and I cannot wait to hear the rest of what they do! Take it as a gift that we get anything. Too many bands break up or have feuds and never want to put out any more music until it’s too late. Enjoy the ride. I loved it. It brought a smile to my face.
In Flames meets Dark Tranquillity = Epic
Sweden is amazing😍
It really wasn’t a solo, though. It was a harmony lead for both guitarists.
Yup, this right here. Wasn't a solo.
A lot of the song reminds me of 'Fiction'. People need to realise that most of the time, music is written around the vocalist and what they can do. This song 100% fit Mikael's vocals.
I’m glad you guys said it, it does give off a Dark Tranquility vibe. But I was hoping for Jesper guitar tone from old in flames like clayman era and before. But that being said , I like song but it was a grower. I hope there are heavier tracks and maybe a classical/folk vibes from old albums of in flames but not a carbon copy more of an influence. Happy you guys did this video/song🤘🏻
We were not expecting a DT vibe at all, so that was a surprise for sure.
Their new song dropped today and it is Swedish melodeath reborn!! Can't wait to see you guys react!
Dark tranquillity….grand cadaver…the halo effect….mikeals one bad dude man…🔥☠️🔥
In flames too
Wtf I had no idea Mikael from Dark Tranquillity was in another band!!! Thanks guys, this is a must listen for me, will investigate further! 🤘
He is also in band called Grand cadaver apperently.. Busy guy!
@@kkbae161 sure is, and Grand Cadaver just released a full length album. Death Metal goodness.
@@dmphax Yeah! Heavier stuff but Mikael sounds great
To me it sounded like a heavier modern Dark Tranquility, but it sounds amazing.
I agree with Antonio, 100%! And it did sound like Dark Tranquility who I also like much better than In Flames.
Totally agree. Dark Tranquility is such an exquisite band. Mikaels vocals are unique IMO
The absence of solo really reminds me the old In Flames songs with some dual guitars melodies. Very nice song! Looking foward to listen to the other tracks! I really enjoyed the react guys!
Great song! Love it!
Eyy, dont see it like a solo then =o just an nice malody thing
I couldn't see how tehre was any way I could have been disappointed in this. I can't wait for more! This is the In Flames that disappeared after Reroute To Remain IMO.
If you think of old In Flames, name 10 ultra heavy soli and you will see In Flames was never famous for this. Though I agree a real solo would have been better. Or a real epic solo finale instead of the same chorus again and again. All in all awesome track, epic guitar play in chorus. For the upcomming I wish for more progression in the song.
The song is amazing and doesn’t need a solo!
Im with you all the way antonio!!!!!
People forget that a lot of the solos from the early and mid 90’s was Glenn Ljungström. December flowers solo was him. If they can get him back you will hear that old in flames sound. During the jesters race they had 3 guitarists.
Correct. The solo is beautiful, but the band didn't play it live to my knowledge and from clips I have seen.
@@dmphax Correct. They didn’t play the solo live. It was like a guest performance on the album
This band rips. 👌🏼
I liked the song but I expected more prominence from the guitars. And it's true, it sounds more like a Dark Tranquillity song than In Flames.
sounds like the late 90s and 2000s slow melodeath vibe
🤘
I AGREE! I wanted more Jesper...but it was solid and for an intro to this new magical conglomeration..I'll take it
Not just only like Dark Tranquility, it's more like a song of DT's Moment album.
Love it
I loved it but the thing is you can easily introduce this as one of Dark tranquillity song and no one will notice
In Flames na veia!
They are fuc%#ing good
Agree with the solo thing, I was expecting an old style in flames Jesper's solo & this felt like decaf coffe, specially coming from the first track
From the early snippet we've been feed of the song I thought that It sounded exactly like Dark Tranquillity. After listening to the song It only solidifed my thoughts and It literally could have been a song taken from the Moments album. The only part that feel a bit "In Flames"-ish are the lead/solo part with the harmonies. That said I think the song is not bad, but I admit I was expecting more of a old In Flames feeling. Still curious tough to hear the rest of the album... will see...
Too early to judge a band by just one single song. I believe the best is yet to come 😘 As we know jesper as the main composer. He is good at writing good riffs and melody. After all that is what we aim for.. and he is not into this kind of virtuoso solos.. he is always more into guitar melody line.. harmonic, simple and memorable.
Ritmos de guitarra tiriri também faço na minha guitarra…mas um bom solo…é mais complicado
About Guitars Work.This Song is sounds like It's was written by Niclas. So you can tell a different between 3 guys Jesper,Niclas and Bjorn.
which is fine.but Jesper+Bjorn formula is the best.
in all honesty, I heard this the other day and I absolutely loved this track, yeah the solo wasn't amazing, but I have this feeling that Nuclear Blast decided on releasing this first as a single/video because it is more on the radio friendly side of things... in saying this, I'm hoping that their first album will be MUCH more than this. I mean as an example, Dark Tranquillity's Fiction and the first single off that album, Focus Shift... great track! But probably the weakest song off that album.
A tipically In Flames lead, no solo at all.
Big dark tranquility vibe, reminds me the childhood!
You should react to EIGA - KAIMON (FT drew York of Stray From The Path) its a banger!!
this>>> everything by In Flames in the last 20 years
I was expecting a bit more from this Dream Team, specially the solo but sounding like Dark Tranquillity is a good thing 😃 and it's better than any In Flames songs released after 2000 😃
WHATS UP GUYS!!!!!🤟🤟🤟🤟🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😈😈😈
Agree on the guitar solo. Really nice track though, but the more or less lame solo pulls the song down a notch. Guess the expection of something similar to "Only for the Weak" threw me off. Good content guys! Keep it up!
I like the song but the solo hurts it.
Keep in mind that only for the weak it was bjorn gelotte doing the lead. These 2 gents are more riff oriented than solos so i would not expect mega solos on this record, i might be wrong though.
Had higher hopes for this. Kinda meh but I'll listen to the album when it comes out.
The harmony lead's melody sounds me like the bridge of a song i can't remember what it is. Good song tough, i like it a lot. By the way, seeing Jasper, Peter and Daniel around again moved me, they brought me at the times when In Flames was one of my favourite bands (THAT band will always remain one of).
Edit: i figured out what song is: the chorus (not the bridge) of Full Moon Shoals by Soilwork has the same melody.
Dark Tranquillity - Phantom days, maybe?
@@samitapio8774 i figured out what song is: the chorus (and not the bridge) of Full Moon Shoals by Soilwork. The melody is the same.
why he unsatisfied this EPIC Song💔
I Enjoy this song very much i think this song is better than
Shadow of intent - Intensified Genocide
Guitar solos are overrated 😜 I don't really miss a huge solo from this song.But I understand what Pedro said,it was his 1st listening,I might felt the same at the 1st time...but I can't remember as I've listened shit-loads of time since 😆 I quite like this song,it's simple awesome 🤘🤘🤘
That harmonized solo hits. It’s kinda like that when they have that small harmonized solo on “only for the weak”
I like the track but I was expecting something more given the wealth of talent this band possesses. Looking forward to the album nonetheless. And yes, solo > dual lead harmonies
It wasn't a solo!
I dont think that was a solo, but with that said, I was expecting an amazing solo and it was disappointing when it didn't happen, but overall, definitely an amazing track.
I enjoyed this song, but I'd have to agree, it was sort of the same from beginning to end. It never felt different at any point, not that it needed to, but it's just my opinion. The solo didn't add much for me, it was ok. I would have loved to hear them spice things up, but it was just bare bones. It's still a good song, but not one that I'll keep on repeat. Maybe with a few more listens I'll end up loving it, music is funny that way.
Mikael stanne🎃🤟
Its just Dark Tranquillity with different band members except stanne
Totally agree about the solo! That was a solo from like a Hair metal song lol
Its only a Projekt Not IF or DT....did you see this u2?
Your soooo right!!! "I said the same thing "!! It needs a 2 part guitar solo in there"!!🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🔥🔥🔥
Boa música,mas realmente questiono a qualidade dos guitarristas???Fdx,não sabem fazer um solo de guitarra???pois é amigos…Bjorn Gelotte é um dos melhores guitarristas do mundo.É o que falta na música 🤟🤟🤟
Gamers be like: Since there is "Mass Effect" why don't we create "Halo effect"?Or "Half Life Effect"?
I agree on Pedro. I Have hoped this would sound more like the older In flames with Jesper stromblad on the guitar, didn´t sound like he had an influence on this too much. But anyways just requested an TBT on patreon with one of his side project, dimension zero and their track from their ep. Through The Virgin Sky, this is In flames on steroids. Check it out at some point, but should be from their ep.
I really think the album will defo have some old inflames.
Pedro, you were spot on! The solo is almost pathetic. The song as a simple structure, so the solo really had to stand out. Nevertheless, this is a good and very listenable song, I'm eager for more. Abraço
Song is good but could have been better.
he is over reacting over the solo part. this great song and great band,
