    Avalanche (Lyrics)
    A fistful of fear in my hands,
    A bullet of betrayal in my brain,
    No progress comes from pleasure,
    We smile in ignorance and learn in pain.
    Willful deceit was your plan,
    Desperately avoid the blame,
    Who will you answer to now?
    Sharpened your shovels just to dig your grave
    Stand up because the ground is in your way...
    I won't give you any peace!
    ...Yet still you talk...
    Try to fight, but I will watch you fall!
    This is sweet revenge,
    And karma's a bitch.
    You glutton for punishment,
    What did you expect??
    Sick! Sick! Sick!
    I'm sick of being your martyr...
    Your inflated ego is just dead weight.
    Bask in all the eyes upon you,
    Before you know it they'll have turned away.
    Stand up as the whole world turns away...
    I won't give you any peace!!!
    Wait and see... Cry yourself a lonesome creek.
    ...Yet still you talk...
    Try to fight, but I will watch you fall!
    This is sweet revenge,
    And karma's a bitch.
    You glutton for punishment,
    What did you expect??
    Wait and see... Cry yourself a lonesome creek.
    Your decaying corpse can feed the roots of my towering tree.
    Just wait and see... You're dead to me
    Yet still you speak...
    Trying to justify what you're doing to me!?

    • @ivankovachev8835
      @ivankovachev8835 Před rokem

      I'd say the leads and the vocals are the strong part of this song, the rhythm riffs and drums are there to compliment those two, but on their own, they aren't special since that's not their purpose. It's standard thrash/death metal.

    I want to say thank you for one of the best lyrical videos I've seen in a long time, great use of the live footage!
    Favourite lyric has to be "cry yourself a lonesome creek" which has to be the most poetic version of telling someone to go fuck themselves.

  • @Blackfade84
    @Blackfade84 Před 10 lety +14

    My favourite song from their new album. The whole album is great, but this song is particularly awesome. The clean backing vocals in the chorus really give the song an edge, and it is this type of contrast that I hope Arch Enemy use in the future. I always find it strange that a band that is so focused on melody with their guitar-work (the Amotts are my favourite guitarists) could neglect the power of catchy vocal-work. I wouldn't necessarily want clean choruses in every song, but throwing it in sometimes makes for a nice contrast! :-)

  • @jasonsullivan5857
    @jasonsullivan5857 Před 4 lety +6

  • @amadeusdraven3831
    @amadeusdraven3831  Před 10 lety +253

    This is a great song, one of my favorites off the new album, but to be completely honest at first I was not a huge fan of the lyrics just because I do not really believe in the concept of revenge or wasting any more time and energy on someone who has deceived you. I say fuck that... just walk away. So, for me, I view the lyrics more as that temporary voice in our head of anger/frustration/hurt we get as a reaction when someone we care about deceives us. The thoughts that make you want to fight back. Temporary thoughts that may linger, but eventually go away once you realize that person is not worth it.
    From what I understand that is the concept of the album War Eternal. The never ending war of everyday battles of human life.

    • @amadeusdraven3831
      @amadeusdraven3831  Před 10 lety +8

      Louis Friedrich Ha, I never even considered the gender of the vocalist/lyricist, but that’s one way to look at it… “Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned”

    • @amadeusdraven3831
      @amadeusdraven3831  Před 10 lety +5

      For the record, I do like the creative writing style and the strong presence of rage in the lyrics of this song, which goes well with the music. I am also a big fan of Alissa White-Gluz. I just think the idea of plotting revenge on a piece of garbage who deceived me is a waste of my time and energy. Learn from the experience and move on.

    • @louisfriedrich7285
      @louisfriedrich7285 Před 10 lety +1

      Amadeus Draven Yep I have the same opinion as you. But I asked many women what they think about her lyrics on that song. Most of them shared Alissas opinion. ;) But overall the song is a complete masterpiece.

    Her name is still [ Alissa White-Gluz ] ;-P
    Besides that, this is one of my favorite songs on the record.
    I understand why it wasn't they're first single cause the refrain might have made a wrong image of Arch Enemy's direction but this should have been their second single. And so far it's not even in their current set list... unfortutately.
    But I really wish they would do a promotion tour with 'almost' all their songs of the new record like Dimmu Borgir or Judas Priest did.
    I mean this whole record is so f#cking good...

      Eh. I feel alissa is more unique as a vocalist. Angela is great but I feel she brings very little new to the table

    I don't listen to this kind of music but I saw it on a girls Instagram post and I must say, that was dope.

      It gets the blood pumping. Once you start doing strenuous activities to this stuff and notice it helps, you can't go back to soft music. Try to jog to some clean vocals after this. 😁
