Swallow the Sun - The Justice of Suffering

[FeNsTa]

got the shirt with lyrics on the back. people don't understand it. sadly not many people know of swallow the sun. my favourite metal of all time possibly......

[hemen235]

mary thanks for this song. it is a great song for me!

[JawbolingWoW]

one of my favorite songs and I really enjoy the video too. thank you for the upload!

[YourRoadToHell]

i hate the movie quote in the beginning, love is not made by god ffs, god is all about hating on people who are different or do not submit, god is anything but love

[MetalxXxMayhem]

Metallic poetry. Fuckin A!!

[AdrYanKrypt]

my favorit favorit song for Swallow The Sun.... I truly love it by all means!!!!

and it fits the video PERFECTLY and BEAUTIFULLY!!!....really magnificent job!!

great lyrics for great band for great great video....

I LOVE the "I curse the love for you.. and the pale souls you've tasted......"

SO SO MUCH!!...

and loved the art before it when he said "then I will no longer live without it!"...

it really gave my shiver to my spine...

just..... SPEACHLESSSSSSS...............

[ssapir]

james franco is sooooooooooooo talnted !!! *____*

what movie is this ?? :}

[Eldarion10]

It's one of the best amateur videos I've seen, it's all cut in a genial way that makes me shiver all the way through. Although, the song itself does so to :) But not this strong. The great idea to put one of my favourite songs and one of my favourite movies together, it's obvious you understand the tune. Great music, great lyrics, which fit perfectly with this ancient story of love and the suffering it involves, thank you, man! :)

[surj33t]

@Eldarion10 Thanks! I was working this shitty janitor job listening to this song, and i realized it would go great with scenes from this film. Came out pretty good, thanks for your kind words!

[knite778778]

short haired 5 o'clock shadowed actor looks like lead singer from Helevorn!

[wormsinfestedfetus]

PERFECT video to this song, fucking perfect.

[TheMoondrum]

great job dude.. it was the 1st song I heard from STS..

beautiful

[jsklinger92]

this is a horrible song how do people like this

[Sylvanranger]

@jsklinger92 What would you prefer?

[MasakoXer]

@jsklinger92

this kind of music is epic as hell.

Seriously, what do you like.

[somberlight]

@jsklinger92, it's easy. press play, and be entertained. that's how.

[Dreamtime76]

emotional!!

[TrueKivan]

hate that face at 4:04 though

[TrueKivan]

Great video, great band and my favorite ever vocalist Jonas Renkse? And its here for around 4 years? Damn why life is so cruel, that I found it today and not years ago <_<

[OpenMindedChristian1]

whoever edited this together did a great job!!!

[oiiRapturE]

Jonas Renkse FTW

[DarkDhanix]

it seems that this video is official, isn't it?

[surj33t]

@DarkDhanix No, it's not official, I made it as a fan a few years ago and people seem to like it haha. Peace.

[smelcia7]

both this song and video are the ideal love it

[ChaosDestroyah01]

Dose anyone know what this movie is called? xD

[the7gates]

@ChaosDestroyah01 The movie is called Tristan + Isolde

[Bodomlover]

James Franco and Swallow the Sun what a brilliant combination ;)

[NO11YOU]

Is this fan made? Either way it is amazing and i will most definitely check out this movie.

[frannekeaf]

Stunning! ♥ Amazing song and awesome editing job :)

[Margoth777]

Great song.......................

[n0t3t]

[infamousdnt]

@the9vampire9phantom K thumbs down cuz thats fucking stupid

[Mayhamsdead]

Swallow the Sun...No other band like it. Whoever wants to argue with me has to make Tristan and Isolde look so bad-ass on a doom track. Period.

[XHellxraiser]

that was amazing, dude. good choice of the movie too. i've seen it before, and the song and the movie fit really well together. good job.

[Dasweetkiller]

this is epic, i fucking love it xD

[91FroSt91]

That's absolutely brilliant .. I love it :)

Thanks for uploading and making that brilliant vid :)

[Evoin84]

I'm not gonna lie.. i watched this movie specifically because of this song. HOLY CRAP i love this band. Movie was badass too.

[subwave12]

@Evoin84

jup, I did the same...

anyway...something more than music and film, "more than either..."

[lasik124]

what part exaclty is Jonas singing? The clean part right?

[Trombop09]

@lasik124 yeah I hope they play this song for the canadian tour since Katatonia and StS are on the same bill

[0defaced]

@Trombop09 they sure as fuck did son!

Jonas however, did NOT come out for it :(

[Bodycage]

@lasik124 duh, fag.

[9rmetal]

the song that got me into swallow the sun thats why i love this song and sts

[GameSlut]

Swallow the Sun, Orphaned Land, KATATONIA. Going to be a great show

[IAmANap]

[iloveyue]

[Bodycage]

[EMG33]

[jrwolfyboy]

Those 8 dislikes need to be shot.

[Demondust666]

both a great movie and one hell of a song. Jonas just owns this. and fuck, its the best romance war movie of all time.

[unsuremcgee2]

the only metal that can make me almost tear up. nuff said

[unsuretimmy]

@unsuremcgee2 well put bro. anakin rocks shit in this vid btw

[FireAboveIce]

this is a dumb video for this wonderful song

[Patatacks]

BEAUTIFUL LYRICS 

[polokof24]

this is so great... so fucjin doom .. and the voice of jonas rekse ... amazing... save to my favorites..

[lukeisonfire911]

i have watched this like 10 times. truly fucking amazing

[KirrySparrow]

One of my favorite songs with a brilliant, sweet clip. And I adore the little snif she does on 7:29

[ausmetalchannel]

Beautifully done.

[maggotfrom1993]

they should have used that song for the movie even if I don't think the song was out yet

[armsOVsorrow]

tristain and isolde .... great movie too!!

[khanhell5]

WHAT IS THE NAME OF THIS MVIE??

[mayhemgods]

@khanhell5 ae i just wanna watch this movie in hopes of hearing swallow the sun

[wibblegorm]

Tristan & Isolde. It sucks, by the way.

[tomerwohl1]

@khanhell5 tristan and isolde

[ORIT869]

Tristan & Isolde

[WagenmannJ]

I Fucking love these guys, can someone tell me some other bands that are like swallow.

[CaptianPiroxide]

IS THAT THE NIGGA FROM SPIDERMAN?

[loon313]

@CaptianPiroxide THAT IZ THE NIGGA FROM SPYDERMEN

[Gigahearts]

Maybe he's gay

[Tendrilsofdarkness]

? :| who is?

[Voidworshipper]

Good song but they abused the hell outta that chorus

[Tendrilsofdarkness]

In what aspect? I found the chorus quite nice as it touches the lighter side of sorrow emphasised in this song. However I do prefer the gutteral XD

[kirstyminto]

lovely... :(

[Kukident1]

the guttural vocals are kinda annoying and overdone, the vocals by renske are close to his best

[TheMetro666]

swallow the sun music fits this video so well. when most people put bands to movie it doesnt go well usually but in this case its better then watching wizard of oz to pink floyd!!!

[MediaGnome]

Epic enough said

[Tb0neZ5]

story of my life, holy fuck this is depressing.

[swallowthedark]

dont watch the movie then it was beyond depressing good but depressing

[aphroman7]

This hurts... I don't give a shit what pseudo masculine attacks I get for this comment, this is just really great, and tragic.

[ddddirtman]

Amazing!!

[johnny7071]

really good song A1 job!

[swallowthedark]

this movie was good i suppose but it was really depressing but the song fits pretty well

[SwordOdOdin]

oh my god, this is so incredibly wonderful o_o i shivered while listening to it the first time...

[wiker666]

Really great, when you read the lyrics you see it fit really well with the legend of Tristan & Isolde. Great idea to put them together, I've read the book, but I was not knowing there was a movie about it.

[bartjudo]

The lyrics are so painfull but beautiful!!! he sings something everyone like to do in that kind of situation

[krezalin]

fucking great job!!

[squeak347]

fucking love this song.. best one of the album and my fave from the band

thanks for the vid mate, its what got me into STS

[Jive861]

most awesome scene at about 5:40 when the king screams like the singer of the band ;)

video fits perfect!

[iRRwiTZeR]

wow, this vid is amazing!

Words fail me...

[Tb0neZ5]

But every second with her I count

And for every second you will suffer too

The night will end...

It will end in tears soon

wow i can relate to that.

[mantiviking]

Jonas Renkse is fucking amazing!!!

Great song and an awesome band!!

[JackThePsychoKiller]

Nice Song!

[Immortalgrim]

And now I know about it too!

[prodigy45]

did the two characters have an affair? the song fits the video also ^^

[surj33t]

Tristan and Isolde fell in love before she had been married to Lord Mark. She was forced to marry him but kept seeing Tristan in secret. Tristan is hurt both because he has to watch another man be with the woman he loves, but that other man is his king and the man who saved his life and adopted him as a child after his own father was killed. Lord Mark finds out of the affair, feels betrayed but then Tristan dies fighting for him in battle against Isolde's father's army.

[prodigy45]

ah thanks for clearing that up for me, sounds like a good movie

[maniacminerva]

@surj33t Great job!!!Btw From which album is this song?

[irobot64]

LOL same here

[equivalent8]

Watching this video over and over again for like 6 months

realy thx surj33t

[0Matth0]

sorry, but I was wondering:

which movie is that where you put that music on?

[surj33t]

Tristan & Isolde

[TheMetro666]

i just bought this bands butterfly cd its good but not so many songs but sick songs well worth it. i love this band!

[adio1984]

\m/

[ofoyboy]

love it

[suomik1988]

dude I met the guitraist and keyboards for this band yesterday night. they are fucking awesome. I saw them with soilwork, darkane, and warbringer.

[pyrothesis1]

the guitarist was stood next to me while Apocalyptica were playing (they were the supporting act) he was very tall and really quite quiet when i asked if i could get through to the bar

[bloodyCape88]

5:41 is pretty awesome

[toppsoul]

i liked this movie allthu the ending kinda annoyed me

[mrlizard8]

...I've heard of doom metal, but wtf is "sludge" metal

[andresitox666]

Listen to kingdom of sorrow, they are sludge metal... is something really different than Swallow the sun... they are nothing more than Melodic Doom/Death Metal...

[toppsoul]

its a subgenre of doom metal combined with hardcore stuff something like that

[SchizoScientist]

Sludge Metal is actually somewhat Southern Rock inspired. I'd consider Acid Bath to be Sludge Metal. Give them a listen. Also, Baroness is a great Sludge Metal band. Sludge Metal kind of has a Stoner Metal mixed with Doom Metal sound. And before the elitists jump my ass, yes, I know Stoner Metal isn't actually a genre or subgenre, but most people should understand.

[geek1989]

Mastodon is kinda sludge prog metal

[slashNpage77]

Wooo for Jonas! both STS and Katatonia are amazing, great bands

[ababelaz]

i never get tired of watching this vid, great just great ;)

[Beiadonah]

Shet! como conseguir esta hermooooooooosa pelicula???

alguien puede decirme?

en español claro...jejeje

[mityjoeyoungxnj]

Which movie is this from?

(Flame suit on)

[ganonflakes]

I'm not trying to be a douche here, but if you look at the description for the video it says Tristan and Isolde.

[Finsterforst]

Just saw the Movie... One of the greatest movies I saw in the last years. And this song really fits into the atmosphere of it. Great work.

[SchizoScientist]

Oh yeah, and I'm seeing them February 20th, with Warbringer, Darkane, Soilwork, and I can't remember the other band. Can't fucking wait.

[WordsOfZarathustra]

I think its just those 3. Warbringer is the only other worthwhile band player. Still trying to get my hand son some tickets =(

[ganonflakes]

Soilwork isn't bad, I mean their new stuff isn't my forte but the old stuff is pretty good.

[SchizoScientist]

Swallow The Sun is one of my favourite bands, by far. They are amazing. The way they portray their messages.  The vocals, and the dominating Doom/Slude Metal sound. They are true masters of their sound. One of the greatest Doom/Sludge metal bands I've ever heard.

[Flinty88]

That one guy seems to be the asshole in every medieval movie

[damienjeffgomez]

good video

[swallowtheworld]

is he an artist of Spider-man ? (goblin`s son),

LMAO. AND song is awesome. Swallow the Sun is amazing band. JONAS VOCALS <3

[trion89]

Just love sludge^^

[XxsoulsuckerxX]

amazing band. extreme talent musically and creatively. can't wait to see them in march

[Sauron767]

whhats this movie? in the beginning??before the song.

[Finsterforst]

Tristan & Isolde.

Read the Info.

[beachmonkey124]

I never thought I would be a doom fan, but I'm really liking this. I might go see them in San Marcos with Soilwork and Warbringer.

[Futil3]

THis is really good fuckin metal. Seein em in feb.

[kiril89]

These guys are awesome, I'm also seeing them in Feb.

[Ferrari1945]

No one cares if this is Doom or not or if they claim that it's doom. It's good music and I like listening to it.

[ikamev]

Nice video. The song is quite good... but I really LOVE LOVE LOVE Jonas, and he's so excellent in this song, so he saves it from being shit.

[orc001]

ROFLROFLROFL

5:42 NICE

Very funny pairing. Great song, i had never heard of katatonia but maybe ill have to check them out, their singer sounds good.

StS Rox mah Sox :[)

[DecembersMoon]

blasphemy, StS was the 4th slot on the latest US Katatonia tour haha.

[fuckthe5os]

"ForegoneWay" is ignorant and got stuck/lost in the Epic Doom era. Black Sabbath was Epic Doom and they went wayyy above #1..learn what you're fucking talking about. Im done hearing about the "ye olde times" in Epic Doom I dont give a fuck who was put on the gallows..Its getting old and unoriginal. regardless I wouldn't call STS DOOM METAL because they are clearly not. but to go off and slander a group when you couldn't even come close to them. If you dont like them why keep talking about em?

[ForegoneWay]

First off Sabbath isnt Doom never was so learn what the fuck youre talking about before making an ass out of yourself. They inspired the genre and laid down the groundwork for Doom bands to perfect. They played Heavy Metal smart one. Secondly I keep talking about them cause people like you keep bringing me back with insults and ignorant rants such as fuck you StS is true death doooom blabla... Thirdly.. Obviously didnt understand what I said or too stupid understand.

[ForegoneWay]

^Never said that Epic or Traditional Doom was the only true form of Doom (though old Doomsters do). In fact I listen to just about every sub genre of Doom there is.. from Funeral to Drone. The point was that I got sick and tired of reading 'StS DeathDoom Rocks' I had to say something. Im allowed to express my opinion and trust me Im not the only one that thinks this way. Bottom line StS needs to stop posing as a Doom band cause theyre sending the wrong message to first time Doom listeners.

[MsMetal284]

Seeing these guys live with Apocalyptica next month :D
