Omnium Gatherum - New World Shadows [New Song 2011]HQ

[JukeboxSuperHero]

good song

[1991wayfarer1991]

one of few bands that never disappoint.

these guys and insomnium are the solid future for melodic death metal.

and its not surprising they are both from finland

[NiggeliNG]

@1991wayfarer1991 check out ablazer, they're a great new melo-death band

[1991wayfarer1991]

@NiggeliNG yeah? will do man, thanks for the reco.

hail from newfoundland

[ConVic73d]

it can't be a coincidence that omnium is insomnium without the INS

[MeisterSimaYi]

nice to chill..such a nice song

[TheWolverine232]

chorus is just amazing...whole song is just amazing!!! 

[Thymios]

this new death/prog/post-rock/nwothm/sp­eed/god-knows-how-to-call-it genre is fvckin' insanely awesome...

[DanteMelancholia]

@Thymios Erm... This is just Melodic Death Metal you know ?

[Thymios]

@DanteMelancholia i reckon they've added some more elements here, there are definitely new influences. Melodic death metal exists for a couple of decades, this sounds a bit different doesn't it?

[DanteMelancholia]

@Thymios Maybe we can reconize some doses of progressive sounds. But no so different..

[kadykwan]

So beautiful !!!!!

[itsmydamnation]

I dont like metal with grows but this is just so good that i will just have to learn to put up with them !

[justKenny99]

Best chorus ever.

[Violator50]

альбом просто ахрененный!

[HeavyMetalizer]

Awesome band. Just stumbled across them as I really love Insomnium's Music and I had to order this album right away after listening to this song. The keyboards fit really well and kind of remind me of the old PC Demo music scene.

[LedSatriani]

Okay, now I see how the growling fits. Now I can't stop listening to this song, it's amazing!

[mistershadowx2]

Saw these guys @ Neckbreaker's Ball. Better than all the other support bands, Gurd, Varg and Mercenary wren't bad, but this band was really a surprise.

[zeon951]

this ain't half bad :)

[werein12345]

this whole album + skyrim = fucking amazing (just a thought)

[TheQueenLycan]

@werein12345 Battle Upon the Arctic Plains by Destroy Destroy Destroy is fucking stellar for fights with Frost Dragons on Skyrim as well. >:)

[kobebryant0011]

awesome song

[WildChild1584]

Not my Favourite Band on the Neckbreakers Ball... but sounds okay.

[mysteryrocker123]

well i now know Insomnium is in good hands :D

you will be missed Ville!!!!!

[OmegaProjectZero]

one of my all time favorite songs

[Newgenerate]

1:25 - 1:57 guitar is sexy, but could've been taken so much further. especially when he reused it

[sysexstudio]

Vocals aren't that great. Not the right tune or rough style for the music behind them or something. Other than that aspect.. sounds great.

[DeftCrowMk3]

When you think of it, this album is one of the rare mutations of melodeath, or any metal genre in general, that makes you want to sit back and reflect on yourself.

Opeth and Dark Tranquillity can be said as pioneers of this kind of theme. Many bands try but risk their albums sounding repetitive and boring, but OG pulls it out remarkably well.

[SROCeallaigh]

@DeftCrowMk3 wouldn't really say Opeth, they're so different...I need to check out this band's other albums, only discovered them today, but see what you mean about decent melodic death metal, like this, DT and In Flames reroute to remain for example...

[LedSatriani]

I just wish this was a band with a clean vocalist. The growls just don't fit the music.

[SNPCeltic]

@LedSatriani

Imo the contrast is what makes it so fucking beautiful!! However like you I do wish there was a clean vocalist for chorus' and stuff more often like in Soul journey's and a few other tracks.

[Evraem]

@LedSatriani I disagree, it'd be bland if the voice followed the melody that the guitar is making. Hence, why melodic death metal is such an interesting genre.

Sure, you could change the guitar voice to the singing voice, and make a trendy riff to support it. But that would be pretty much what everyone else has been doing for years and years.

No exactly original - Melodic Death Metal ftw.

[c4bb4g3]

@LedSatriani it fits perfectly fine for me. beautiful song

[werein12345]

this albums probably going to stick with me for the rest of my life.

[Xordaw]

Those cleans give me fucking goosebumps...The awesome kind.

[Lekiwi33]

i love this but why cant the keyboards be guitars instead...that cheap tone of the keyboards just isnt appealing...i dont know keyboards seem to make songs appear more fake for me...i just love guitars too much

[carbom2010]

Insomnium and Omnium Gatherum need to go on tour together. Totally call it Insomnium Gatherum. :D

[SketchPanda]

@carbom2010 Rofl! Works pretty well now that the guitarist for Omnium Gatherum is temporarily filling in for Insomnium.

[carbom2010]

@SketchPanda I know! How ironic that after my post, a member of Omnium Gatherum begins work with Insomnium! I anticipate the sound of Insomnium with the addition of Markus Vanhala.

[war10sch1]

@carbom2010 they toured together

[carbom2010]

@war10sch1 I'm aware. It was back in 2009. Also toured together with Swallow the Sun a month after their duo tour. ;)

[oshiroblood]

holy shit! fucking love it.

[mandra685]

UNBELIEVABLE! FUCK I AM CRYING!

[VikingGrowler]

The -only- thing I cannot enjoy with this song is the growl/grunt. I normally like growl/grunt alot and are growling myself, but this sounds a bit too 'sloppery' for my liking. Damn... way too used to Mikael Åkerfeldt's vocals.

Other than that, this song is incredibly amazing!

[AFvcG]

@VikingGrowler Yeah me too i think this music would be better with vocals of Insomnium! But the music is awesome!

[blltfrmvlntn123]

i like this song :D it sounds very nice but what else should we expect from a metal band from finland lol

[werein12345]

STILL FUCKING HOOKED

[DouglasseWhi]

Save this music on mediaoutletonline. Just search it on Gooogle :D

[werein12345]

holy shit, itslbeen 5 months since ive listened to this album, and im still hooked.

[FuzzyCholo]

The first album I listened from these guys was the Redshift. Then I went backwards listening to their older albums but they weren't as memorable as the Redshift. Listening to the melodies in this song though I can tell I'm going to like this album.

[killswitchengagefan4]

Fucking love this song! The lyrics, the mix of voices, the passion! And overall, i love main vocalist! Fucking mint this song is.

[MarmorkuchenLP]

Every time I hear this song i feel like standing in a big futuristic city :D

[MATTHEW8036]

Its Really Good I like :)

[Ziadomo]

With Full Force opener :>

[killerhornisse]

@Ziadomo this song was amazing live ! *-*

[Buddybands]

"Come and see" sounds like Trey Parker. I love it. Very south park. LOL. I'm sure I'm not alone here.

[RuckaRuckasNucka]

In case any one was wondering Omnium Gatherum means "hodgepodge"

[wexenhex]

@RuckaRuckasNucka

or, "a grouping of all things", which is better sounding translation

[Ikamatsav]

This song is pretty good, but it would be about x100 better if they stuck to the clean vocals like from 03:49.

[Nokturne999]

@Ikamatsav For you I recommend checking out a band called Radiance. Mats Levin on vocals, but the mastermind behind the sound is actually lead guitarist Sami Raatikainen of Necrophagist. Basically progressive death metal instrumentals, with amazing clean vocals. The album is called The Burning Sun.

[Ikamatsav]

@Nokturne999 Thanks man, so far the stuff I've listened to by Radiance [Fin] is to my liking. Will probably buy the album online via music.radiance.fi tomorrow.

[Nokturne999]

@Ikamatsav Cool man, glad you enjoyed it!

[DevilOnHog]

Having heard the whole album i can confirm its the best thing i ve heard in a long time...gj Omnium Gatherum

[turgore]

better than new In Flames !

[CountessMaelice111]

tonight in Osijek,Croatia BANG OR BE BANGED!

[Metal4life0102]

9999 views XD

Best song of their best album IMO

[metalheadmarti]

angrymetalguy reviewed this, and i had never heard of them...

this is absolutely fantastic and one of my new favourite bands

[parkerbob99]

I dont know why people dont like the vocals..

I love em

I couldnt imagine OG with a better vocalist. hes unique to the bands sound

they are a band of their own

I dont want any change whatsoever

keep on going guys!

Im gonna put on my OG shirt and figure this out on guitar lol

[RyNDonLE]

I was digging it before the vocals kicked in.

[justKenny99]

New album is fucking masterpiece.

[Vine666]

Fucking ace... till the vocals, argh sorry. Just sounds a bit silly.

[iron77mike77]

@Vine666 the vocals are prime. what the fuck are you doing listening to melo death if you dont like growls

[Vine666]

@iron77mike77

I do like growls... I just can't get my ear around his vocals. They sound cartoony and a bit forced for my liking. Lacking a certain conviction and emotion and technique. But maybe that's just me.

[texasproof]

@Vine666

If you want to hear good vocals listen to something like Isley of Skye by Suidakra

[lman2004]

@iron77mike77 To be honest, I could probably learn to love Melo death for it's music while not liking the growl's/screams some bands do. But I personally love them, it make's it that much better for me. Guess some people just not open minded enough to see it.

[kobebryant0011]

this is amazing

[martyr84]

woooooooooooow finally.. this song alone made up for the last shit album

[bustergaa]

So glad they kept the same concept for the redshift because i thought that was there best album

[NocturnalExistence]

new to the band? want another album that is good? check out the first one 'spirits and august light'...some great tunes on that one

[ThievesApprentice]

his voice live is good, too but i mean the whole way of performing. dont get me wrong their songs are awesome and their playing perfectly live but its my opinion that the vocalists way of performing live (in general not in singing)...isnt that good.

but its a matter of opinion i think ;)

[voidofdeath]

One great amazing song, truly! i fcukin' LOVE it

[Dowa2b]

Too amazing.... cant... handle it!...... *Dies*

[SaturnineXTS]

This band, Mors Principium Est and Scar Symmetry are the finest of the new wave of melodic death metal bands.

[ThievesApprentice]

its a shame the singer ruins this band when they play live. their music is

godlike. especially this song. melodic dm 4 life

[Blissel]

@ThievesApprentice The vocalist performed this song perfectly.

[PJownsyoursoul]

As far as melodic death metal goes - this is as good as it gets.

[werein12345]

EARGASMIC

[RocknRolf13]

This song is fucking CLASSIC!

[Valaman]

Wow, this song is fucking amazing. I mean, wow!! Never heard of them before tonight and I saw a youtube vid where ppl were like 'Listen to Omnium Gatherum - World Shadow it will change your life' man... wow simply amazing!!

[SonOfOdin777]

@Valaman I lost track of these guys afther their first cd, didn't like what came after that, but I think you should check out their first record, check out their song Son's Thoughts....

[Finq08]

@Valaman Yeah its okay, but life changingly good? Wtf, if you discover a band like Tool youll want to shoot yourself.

[Valaman]

@Finq08 I'm not saying it's life changingly good, others said it would change my life... it didn't but it's still an amazing song. Tool... they're a tool of a band. They're terrible.

[xROCKDOLL]

HOLYSHIT! This is amazing :D.

[TxepelDeath]

great song and great band!

[jimberg17]

this band was already awesome and now Dan Swano is helping them!?.. so awesome.. epic harmony with the guitar and keyboard lead.. Swano's clean vocals take this song over the top

[voidofdeath]

Sounds fcukin' great

[metk0o]

Gonna see them in a 5th month.

[neemeenkoekje]
