    In the space of one night's darkness
    They have gathered, somehow drawn
    To where sand and water meet
    To the place where nature mourns
    An army of one thousand souls
    Moved not by force of law
    But by an end of which they dreamt
    Returns to wade once more
    In the shallows, but a prelude
    To the greatest icy depths
    Where neither shape nor shadow
    Can persist in one who's stepped
    Their unseeing eyes surveying
    Darkened scenes within their minds
    Now blissful, soon will falter
    Laying bare what now it hides
    Once submerged they may awaken
    Briefly grasping moonlit skies
    But a crescent moon accompaniment
    Merely ushers in the tide
    Beneath horizons megalithic
    Rays of light's first wonder
    Shall reveal an ashen shoreline strewn
    With the prints of those pulled under

    I remember listening to this band in 2007; weekly free downloads on a certain website. The song was tre'aste and it was the most powerful and raw song I had ever heard. Unbelievable band with a lot of talent. The beautiful melodies, the unmatchable vocals, the chills I receive when the piano is incorporated into the song. This is most certainly the best band out there. It annoys me that they're not as popular as they should be, they deserve more recognition especially when they've produced this quality of music. I can't recommend them highly enough, they're simply incredible. Hailing from the other side of the world, England. \m/

  • @roberto63ist
    @roberto63ist Před 9 lety +62

    This band is definitely one of the best melodic death metal bands I've ever heard but is sad that not too many people listen to this amazing band because they don't listen another thing besides Metallica,Slayer etc.I am not saying those bands suck, I really enjoy those bands as well I got nothing against them, its just that there are so many amazing bands out there around the world like Be'lakor that makes such an amazing work on every album they make and not everybody gets to enjoy this. This is just my personal opinion it was not meant to insult anybody. And Lastly, Horns Up for Be'lakor

  • @attonrand5446
    @attonrand5446 Před 8 lety +32

    Extremely detailed in everything, layers and layers of chimeric and chilling atmosphere, outstanding heart-aching riffs full of tension that will make me long to listen to again and again, strongly accurate vocal with that perfect emphatic tone at the end of some verses translating the wrath of a blade and the despair of its prey, and all of that sounding so fresh and unique won me over, setting my world instantly back into the foggy darkness where the shadows have been forever clashing, and has placed Be'lakor easily at the very top of my favorite bands of all time.

  • @RisanBay
    @RisanBay Před 10 lety +38

    this was first song I've ever heard from Be'lakor few years ago,and can't stop listening from time to time to this day...after I checked other songs of this album,and become the biggest fan..and after two more albums I can say that this is the best band in existence for sure,every single song is masterpiece..I hope they will never lose their way or stop making such a incredible music

    I think it tells a lot about their songwriting capability that so many people have different opinions which part is the best :) My favourite part 3:27-4:03 but of course that doesn't work on its own but needs the build-up. All in all, I love it!
