Be'lakor is so underrated...
I love you guys, hugs from Brazil.
YES.
🤘😄🤘
Os melhores !!!!!!! Be'lakor e Fleshgod sabem tocar a alma de um indivíduo.
Glad I discovered this band
+MattyPS glad this band discovered me
Dude me too
Me too,I'm so happy I found belakor😄
This band is too good🤘🏻
In case anyone was wondering:
In Abeyance the main character goes and visits a shaman in order to drink a special liquid that is meant to help bring back youth. However, something goes wrong, and he is taken all the way back to a point before he was born…
You can give it yourself one interpretation, without watching any kind of movie.
Sounds like what I have been hearing. What I love about Melodic Death is emotion matter more than lyrics! that and riffs! I just respect the human voice as an instrument. Its absolutely great to hear the story that goes along with this though.
Thank you. I actually can't get into a lot of metal songs and even bands whose music is widely thought to be great, but I find to be lyrically lackluster or banal (for example, a lot of Manowar songs) Luckily, Be'Lakor's lyrics have never been a weak point. My favorite song in that regard from this album is _In Parting,_ I encourage people who haven't paid attention to the lyrics there to go and check it out.
To me it seems like his soul jumped out from his body and enters the one of a baby's. And, while his soul is as "old" as his old self at first, as time passes, he starts to get used to his new body, forgetting all he knew before, all he lived and everything, as his mind is gradually synchronised to the one of a baby's. In the end, the only thing remaining in him from his past self is the glimpse of a memory that he died, and that's all. The last rows of the lyrics implicate that his soul was torn away, he "saw the light", and then "the hole already is closing", which means the soul tranfer has completed, and he is now trapped into the body of a baby. And that baby will probably be raised by the witch, or given to a new family.
Sorry for my English, as it's not my main language! Anyway, a great song, and the one I first heard of Bel' akor 😄🤘🏻💖
@@BuzzKirill3D Yes! While melodically, in parting isn't my favorite song, lyrically it is; it's so full of emotion and the end always gives me chills.
As the candles yawned,
My world grew darker
'Til barely a detail remained
Parchment and smoke
Through distant chimes
Moths carried by the breeze
Her finger to my lips,
I am stilled in an instant
I sip, and I'm numbed
From here the path winds backwards
At first I see my entering
And then steps in reverse
Descent where I had climbed
To pass where I had fallen
Familiar, all is frayed
And yet I cannot abide
Beyond my eyelids, I have died
Days are merging quickly now,
Into years that spiral from my chest
They pass but leave no mark
Familiar, all is skewed
And yet I cannot reflect
Beyond my eyelids, I have died
Yet I collapse into youth
Familiar, all is frayed
And yet I cannot abide
Beyond my eyelids, I have died
I swallow forgotten words
To gain what was lost
And lose what was gained
Until neither is real
Behind my head, her hands hold no weight
I have reached a beginning,
But somehow I do not stop
I fall through the first moment
To find that there is more
As light cascades
Through the hole my body has torn
Already, it is closing
Abeyence ☺️❤️❤️❤️
Im from malaysia country.. I loved vocal music too salute 👍🏻
Their guitar tone is unbelievable. I fucking love shit like this that sends you into another world and makes you feel like you are a higher being. The entire instrumentals in this band have great tone, and the vocals are on point. This is the shit!
On behalf of the English society, I would like to formally thank you for using the correct “their”. Have a great day.
Agree agree agree
How are you gonna write riffs like 2:15 and only use them in a single passage? 😭 This band is otherworldly
Dude belakor is notorious for this. Check Neither Shape Nor Shadow. Amazing AMAZING intro with the first verse having this beautiful groove to it. And they only play it the one time!
Normally I’d be okay with it if they weren’t doing extraneous shit like playing the lead riff all the way through an entire 4 measures before doing the same thing with a verse over the top… it’s like they’re just trying to hit that 8 minute mark all the time lol…
Love belakor but these are just my critiques
@@macroglossumstellatarum3068 four times like Opeth, their masters
@@macroglossumstellatarum3068 I had to say that not are the only influences. The fact is that Be'lakor has their own sound. Awesome band
i think its continued slightly altered @ 3:08
jajajajaja
What a riff machine. Drum bass r tight/lyrical . Vocal effects r over the top tho
Be'lakor's music category is not melodic black metal. It's unique metal. There is no band which shows similarity to Be'lakor. I love you guys \m/
6:28 I cant believe this part. Pure magic, this song is gold
0/1 flying... Birds of paradise!
I came to hear just from this moment, 6:28
imo this is one of the most annoying parts
I really like 3:39
@@johnrivers9931Annoying? How can any part of this masterpiece be described as annoying?
@@ScoiataeI Just in my opinion, this song has its ups and downs. Still a great song.
Still listening.. After all those years
Why is this band so honestly underrated
I like how they didn't put vocals at the 3:40 mark and waited a little longer so the listener could enjoy the epic riffage even more.
Be'lakor is so underrated
This band is so underrated so far. I can't believe how come they are not famous! Interesting.
Playing your music stops my little boy from crying instantly, it has done since he was tiny! 15 months on and he still loves it ;-) you've just stopped a major tantrum in its tracks thankyou! Good job he's in to metal, no justin beiber in this house.........
Metal for life! Good parenting. \,,/
Parenting done right
lmao wow ok
Angela Sturch your little boy has good taste 👍
Angela Sturch very nice 👍
Be lakor is the best Band ever and ever and for me.. 👍👍👍👍👍🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
I don't think I've ever listened to a band where I genuinely liked EVERY song they released. You guys are amazing.
I agree. I listen to every track they made. I love every single one of them.
I am going to see them 13 August 2023.
I am so nervous and super excited❤️❤️❤️
Aside of the fantastic song/music, the starting growl is more than awesome!🐺 That wolf has surely has a message for Red Riding Hood ["Chaperon Rouge" by Gabriel Joseph Marie Augustin 1847-1914]. I just recently discovered Be'lakor & this is, to me, their best album. Top quality band!
Oh.
But have you experienced Vessels yet?
Prepare yourself your mind. Your body & your soul.
It's not that it is a good album. All their work is top tier.
Vessels from 2016 was & still is like no other.
And truthfully it carried me through 2020 - '22 so I have bias on this subject.
Each album is an experience unto itself & Vessels, I feel was their zenith.
@@aunrah02 Thanks for the tip! I know all their official releases by now as, as you mention they are mindblowing. Probably a personal click but I prefer the consistent "drive" performed on Of Breath & Bone above all. Nevertheless, enjoy & cherish what makes you tick 😃🤘
What beautiful music these guys have made.
I don't understand how as a MeloDeath lover hasn't heard it before
Baddas Stuff!!!🤘🏻
This song is like an old friend. I think it was one of the first songs I ever heard harsh, screaming vocals(which I learned where called death growls) in and could make out. First found it here at about 13-15 years old, even listened to it while Dad was driving to the beach. Years later I got into Wh40k and found this band's name originated from there. Now even later as a 22yo grown woman I still love this song with my heart and soul, and it brings me to tears. lol
1:43 holy shit... shivers like never before
love from greece!!
This is perfect. I'm feeling really stupid 'cause I only discovered this band a few months ago.. I've been missing this masterpiece songs!!!!!!!
Vc é de onde?
I discovered this right now and I can't sleep.
I was here before even be'lakor was famous and still come back for this
Holy shit the vocals are amazing
I know right? Best vocalist ever.
@@dylanvalorfall you mean Chuck Schuldiner but yea
"Behind my head, her hands hold no weight " bruh. Shes carrying him. Idk why but thats just so powerful to me.
I feel like poetry always goes over my head. I never in a million years would have understood it that way and I think youre right too. I thought it was saying all the heaviness of the world is in him (his thoughts) hence the imagery of the helpless hands. I feel like the fact that the band can be so artistic speaks to their high caliber.
@@kamilo4989 fucken chills bro. Thanks for commenting that.
Met this band 10 years ago. Still my spirit withing
Only 2:41 minutes in and this genious creation has induced more - in terms of self surmounting (haven't found a better way to translate the beautiful german words "Lebensbewältigung" and "Selbstüberwindung") - than a zen session or a long walk through the woods. Artificial indeed, but yet so close to the 'Conditio humana'.
Be'lakor went from unknown to my favorite band in like a month flat. This is some proper fookin' melodeath.
i will never tire of this.
The best band I have ever listen to.
And I have listened to all kind of music.
I am totally in love with Be'lakor 🙂☺️😉❤️❤️❤️
That scream at 4:58 sent chills down my spine. You guys are incredible.
'Behind my head, her hands hold no weight!" man I wish I could roar with that ferocity. Such a catharsis when that line is bellowed.
Be'lakor that was a great show in Hannover. Couple of hours drive for me from the Netherlands but well worth it. Next Europe tour come play in de Melkweg Amsterdam. ❤ thank you.
Love from Bangladesh ❤
5:42
One of the greatest moments in the history of metal
Gets better ever time man
Fucking master piece
Be'lakor, you should come to Finland! People love you here
One of the best openings to a metal song EVER!!!
These guys are good just discovered them today thanks algorithm
People in Finland love this. Keep doing good music. !!
Playing this on your guitar really puts into perspective the amount of effort , emotion and talents laid upon these songs.
And timing signature changes
PURE MELODIC DEATH!
It's good but not pure. If you want that search for Amon Amarth and Insomnium.
@@elemento_arts How is Amon amarth more "pure"?
oui!!!!!!!!
@@elemento_arts Kalmah*
@@thrice00 it's not
Epic!!!
Pure and Perfect.
Love from India!
Indeed 🤟🏻
I've owned this album for four years and listened to it probably hundreds of time, but I, just now for the first time, listened to this song while reading the lyrics - wow, they are really great. I've been meaning to do this with the whole album, but I normally listen to it while driving.
This line especially stuck out to me since it's how I feel quite often lately:
"Days are merging quickly now,
Into years that spiral from my chest
They pass but leave no mark"
Fucking masterpiece... My head exploding every time i hear this song
This band is so much better than any other band out there. There's no competition.
I've listened to this track over 421 times in a row, studied it extensively, ran it through some pretty expensive and exclusive equipment. Both downloaded and bought it, burned it on a CD and in the microwave, hit the surviving CD with a barbecued shrimp to hear the resonance, cross-checked all the data I've managed to gather with a Tibetan monk, living in a pokey mansion west of Karakorum... and here's the conclusion - this is not AC/DC. It's better. And I freaking fell in love with it!
U compare Be'lakor with AC/DC? What is wrong with you?
Just a very shallow and tastelessness joke that most people think AC/DC are the only Australian band, worth listening to. Well... the only band they know about anyway.
If my senseless gibbering offended you in some way - please, I apologize. :)
I.B. Annoyed Be'lakor FTW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
haha Be'lakor is awesome
It is an interesting band, though Yothu Yindi is still my favourite Australian band.
Is it weird to say I find your music incredibly chill and relaxing? idgaf, it's true. I don't feel like headbanging or going crazy yada yada; I just want to sit calmly and absorb it and float in it. Maybe remove my bones and just hang out in a puddle on the floor or something. It's a good thing.
Lol
Not weird at all. I am not sure if all metal fans relate, but I was introduced to metal from a place of being a fan of classic rock, prog rock and other sub genres that exist outside the constraint of what I heard as a child. I tested out many of the sub genres and melodic death just resonated with me in a way that other genres don't. Among that, this band is one of my favorites. It is a special kind of calm. It is both empowering and relaxing at the same time. I hear it and all stress just melts away.
I feel the same. I used to listen to them while drawing my art projects about two years ago and I still do. Check out the Band ne obliviscaris. They can put me into the same creative attitude as be'lakor.
I'm listening Death Melo when i wanna sleep so...
This comment shows why I love people who like metal (in general). The fact that you said "I think" instead of making it a fact is very respectable. Personally, I think Be'lakor is a better band in general, but I like a few Insomnium songs more.
something always brings me back to this, that voice in my head that growls "hey dude, it's been a while since you listened to be'lakor go give it a spin" and i'm always amazed about how i could go on without
Underrated Band. So great.
Magnificently atmospheric, and the technicality of it is just perfect - not too overly-complicated to sound cheesy, yet continuously conjures a stream of pleasing riffs. Knows exactly when to transition to the next mood. I've been listening to metal for over a decade, and this is one of the most well-written metal songs I've ever heard.
Outlive the Hand is similar in that regard. If I hadn't heard any other two songs by Belakor, I would still know they are very talented.
You've probably all heard of them, but Opeth has several songs which are similar - long and masterfully-written.
je suis français métaleu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I cannot even describe how much I've fallen in love with this song! The only thing I fear is that I will someday reach the point, when I have listened to often to this album.
It will never happen. Enjoy the long ride, my friend. Absolute gem of an album.
You guys are fucking incredible
easily in the top 10 metal bands in existence.
for me i put them up there with
park way drive, the architects, gojira, the list of metal bands that don't sound the same is very small.
bmth went the pop music route, which made me sad. they went from metal heads to middle school pop band.
i showed people the old bmth they didn't believe it was the same band. till they saw the video.... smdh.
but there still bands with integrity like Be'lakor. if only the music industry was ruled by talent instead of band after band capitalizing on sounding like the band before them just slightly different.
Sooooo true!!!
Wake up in the morning; smoke a bong; slam a beer, and listen to Be’lakor while looking into the woods…..fing perfect
Listening to Be'lakor we become wiser.Each time we hear one of their songs we discover something new.The philosophers of Death metal music and not only.After Chuck Schuldiner it is you guys who lead the path in the evolution of Metal Scene.Meaningful lyrics with precise perception and understanding of the 'world' we are living combined with unsurpassed compositions.Να'σαι γερός και υγιής Γιώργο με την παρέα σου.
Σωστός. Αντε με το καλό να τους δουμε και live εδώ Ελλάδα
If you like this band, you should check out Ne Obliviscaris. Another amazing Australian metal band
And they BOTH played in Melbourne last night! NOOOO!
I saw these guys. This went OFF.

These guys are really talented and true artists. Thank you, thank you, thank you
Be'lakor's music is very powerful ! Its like a complete package ... with a superb drum, superb bass. Amazing riffs.
2:43 is eargasmic
Wonderful album from start to finish. 🤘🤘🤘 I ended up letting my non metal wife listen to this album,let it be known she's a fan now 😅
No idea how I have gone so long without listening to these guys.
I will never get over how amazing this album is! Also, this album artwork might be one of my favourites. I love how Red Riding Hood and the wolf almost look like buddies in the way they are smiling at each other (I could be completely wrong, but that’s the vibe this artwork always gave me). Keen to see ‘em play this album in full in November at Max Watts! 🤘
It completely went over my head that was RRH. I see the picture, in a manner of speaking, of the girl taming destructive aggression. It's still dangerous but she's subdued it enough to have the confidence to taunt it. She's begun, that is, the process of making it more human and binding it to her. That's why she can stand so close to something so destructive.
Environ 10 idées à la minute entre riffs, solis divers changements de rythmes ,et interventions vocales.
Mon Dieu cette chanson reste tellement cohérente et mélodique...
Dans mon top 10 des 100 000 chansons qui ont rythmées et rythment encore ma petite vie.
Grandiose absolument grandiose...
I discovered both NeOblivoscaris and Belakor at the same time, from there my expectations from any band totally changed. Both the bands are masters in music.
Never have I ever enjoyed and got addicted to a whole fudging album. This album is just pure addiction.
When I first heard about this album I had a slightly pessimistic preconception of it. "No way they could possibly top Stone's Reach.."
Holy fuck. You did it. This album cements you as my new favorite band!
Sorry Opeth, I'll always love you.
Lol
Greatest modern melodeath band out there.
Thanks man! I'm enjoying some brotein right now ;)
You guys sit up there with Insomnium and older Opeth. Love the melodic riffs. Brilliant drum sound in Abeyance! Would love to see you in Denver, CO.
Eh, I still prefer Stone's Reach but whatever you love best I guess.
Thanks for this track
i love Be'lakor
For me, with Be'Lakor, it's all or nothing. I'm going to sit here and enjoy every fucking second of this song or I won't even put it on. It's atmospheric, it's epic, it's full of immersion. It's not the normal mood I get from metal... you can't just chow down on a couple riffs and be satisfied - this is symphonic, orchestral... something to behold.
You could in a word, say it's "melodic" death metal...
2:39 ...always coming back to this part 'cos it is SO good.
*Abeyance* is definitely my all-time favorite song by Be'lakor!
\m/\m/
çelikten kılıç its a good choice 👍
Sono potenti riescono a miscelare il gothenburg sound di gruppi come dark tranquillity al progressive dei dream theater. UNICI. Dark tranquillity+dream theater=be'lakor.

This song has the best opening, i'd be extremely impressed if they have something in the next album that can top this
If they have any song close to this and remnants of their next album, ill still buy it.
They did it
@@littlecatholicman sure fuckin did.
Up until now, I thought only Scandinavia knew how to do metal. Well, Belakor is an Australian band.
I am impressed with these Aussies!
I feel ashamed saying this as an Australian but, I never even new Be'lakor existed until yesterday! Pathetic, isn't it? (Me, not the band....!) I'm in love already. I reckon you blokes aught to hook up with parkway drive and do a kick-arse tour (if you haven't already!) Awesome shit! I'll be ordering copies of your entire discography ASAP!
0:00 my heart is connected, pounding it
Absolute Amazing
Easily the best Melo Death Album of 2012. I never thought I would hear MDM as refined as this without being cheezy. Be'lakor are just awesome.
Masterpiece.
i listen to this every day and will never get sick of it!
My girlfriend and I plan to move out of shit America and come where the metal is good. I love you guys, your music is so powerful. Hope to see you guys live soon.
This band makes me proud to be Aussie.
I was searching in a song my sister wanted to listen 2 and I misspelled it and I found this and listened to it and I love it now!!!!
