MERCENARY - Firesoul (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

[Alastairsorel]

El mejor album de Mercenary: 11 dreams. Sin duda.

[Darkkhorse]

Is that Martin Walkier from Skyclad and Sabbat?? it really looks like him (bassist)

[MurderWeaponLimited]

@Darkkhorse

nope, till march 2006 Henrik „Kral“ Andersen

since may 2006 René Pedersen

[justin20111000]

wow there really good.

[stangvissen]

Kick ass music

[hydromel]

240p, my old friend

[zuzpekt]

Skal høres på FULD RULLE... Fedt FEDT nummer. Og bedste fucking lineup. :-)

[ExellenceOfExecution]

Even with parts of the song missing, this is still amazing. One of the best songs I've ever heard. I think Lost Reality and The Hours That Remain just top it though for me.

[darkmasterhate]

es una de mis musica favoritas y la parte q mas me llega es la de 3:10

[MsPepr]

super muzika nemá chybu



[niculamihaiadrian]

I've just found out that former Mercenary members Mikkel and Kral have a new band called Firesoul. How amazing is that?

[Swampdragon102]

Soooo amazing!

Saw them live on monday in Frankfurt. Never heard of them before, but they were GENIOUS! As good as the main bands this night! \m/

[adamized210]

stop hating on my girlfriend! leave justin alone! lol

[Narude4get]

This is real music not like justin Bieber !!!

[xxSanadaxx]

@Narude4get

Shut the fuck up about JB already.

[69Velvetvamp]

PRESS PLAY AND TURN UP TO FULL VOLUME :p

[marchingmetal94]

the vocals are really cool

[CraftMine12]

3:11 i <3 this moment

[drevilrodrigues]

11 Dreams is a complete wonder from start to end, It's not an empty album, some of the musics are even really marked on the composer minds(i.e. Kral). This in specific is as someone said an authentic orgasmic song

[Cthulhudnb]

In the attempt to get people to stop mentioning him, the top two comments reference exactly what they preach not to reference.

[USBorderGuard]

Great song!

[Remainable]

My favorite song! Fuckin great! <3!

[1960PECOS]

kurva to je pecka skladba.superrrrrrrr

[skpmn2631]

This is so fucking orgasmic!!!!! Can you tell me, who is the feminine voice in 3:11 to 3:45?

[PepeKun19]

@skpmn2631 she is monika pedersen from simphonia

[SILYBR]

@skpmn2631 According to the Metal Archives, she's called Monika Pedersen.

[MaximusSkywlaker]

@SILYBR

Isn't she the former vocalist of Sirenia?

[SILYBR]

@MaximusSkywlaker Yes.

[WilhelmsbPartyClique]

BEST melodic death metal these days... i saw this band live at metalcamp 2011 slovenia at first time and i stood at the first line. I was amazed about the great live vocal quality. Every song a hookline from start to end... They come back at november with dark tranquillity, eluveitie and many more at neckbreakers ball tour to many towns in europe. :DDD

[Larrymad2]

Cant wait to see them live at Norway rock festival!! :D

\m/

[TheFellborN]

Best Melodic - death i have jet to hear !!!

[rellekc]

@razorback202 I completely agree, I'm a United States'er and this is some of the best metal, this whole album is amazing! Let the head banging commence !

[razorback202]

Mercenary is SOOOOO underrated!!! we need to get the over to the US thumbs up if you agree!!

[Hansaleus78]

I think that the bass guitarist should sing only by himself.. his voice is powerful, rough and suits more the music than the other gaywad.. btw, world aint obsessed with J.Bieber at all, ppl just can't stand how the fuck such a wanker could be so popular for something that stupid, and what was invented yrs ago b4 him.. that's it

[IvanMyRooM]

How the fuck you dare to even mention that name here?!?!?!?!?! WHAT IS WRONG WITH U!?!?!?!?! Do you ever compare slave to a master?! Or Prey and Victim?! You are soooooo .... well, i am left without any comment

[SoulWind21]

this band is awsome and umm and where did you guys get justin bieber from. This is Metal all the way xD

[thegrouchboy]

@SoulWind21 Who the fuck is Justin Bieber :b sick vocals and screaming in this song by the way :D

[sxgtrgd]

14 people were headbanging so hard, they missed the like button

[ucod001]

i dont even know what to say. just.. so awesome

justin beiber? ... oh yea that fag.. sorry i forgot who he was. i was listening to real music.

[Azazeth1968]

ESTE VIDEO ESTA BIEN KRIKA LA MADRE!!! MERCENARY RULEZZZ!!!

[diehardusa]

RIP Mercenary. This band without Sandager bros isn't Mercenary!

[MadGodful]

@diehardusa It stoped being mercenary when Kral left.

[Swooper86]

@MadGodful Totally with you there. At least they haven't been worth listening to since 11 Dreams.

[MadGodful]

@Swooper86 To true, brother. First Breath, EverBlack and 11 Dreams were Mercenary. After Kral.... They just became another Scar Symmetry clone. 

[MrHumbuk]

@diehardusa I do not agree att all. Rene have a strong voice for both the growl part and the fine voice as well.

Listen to thier new CD Metamorphises.

I do agree though that I too was saddened by the loss of Mikkel Sandager but make no mistake about it. Mercenary still lives !

Saw them live at the release party of the new album and Rene and the guys were f***ing awesome.

[diehardusa]

@MrHumbuk I already have their new album and I dislike new sound of Mercenary because is too ordinary(dozen). Rene's voice is good but Mercenary had best sound with Mikkel...

[MrHumbuk]

@diehardusa I like the tempo change :) Not that I for one second have anything to complain over on the older releases.

But as Rene said when I spoke to him at the release party : I'm glad that people think Mikkel leaving is sad. It would be worse if people just didnt care.

The clear voices sung by Rene is actually pretty close to the original allthough no one can truly replace Mikkel.

He is planning something new, or so I've heard, and I personally look forward too it liek a childfor xmas :)

[citalopram40mg]

even though insanity seems to be reality

[Sonarctic11]

elhombredeloskaraoke sent me here!

[0adireita]

@Sonarctic11 ME 2!

[diehardusa]

is a pity that the band left Sandager brothers, I heard the new album of Mercenary and I dislike that last album

[theuglysoldier]

@diehardusa

New Mercenary is nothing of what it used to be. The early stuff was awesome, they peaked with the Sandager brothers and now they are just trendy dickheads, a shadow of their former self. As brutal and blunt as that sounds, it's true. They have proven to be total bandwagon hoppers.

[wyldefan716]

holy shoot!!!! his voice is insane!!!!!!!!

\\m//

[schecter707]

wat r some good mercenary cds?

[TheRiisingSun]

@schecter707 11 Dreams is by far my favourite, but their first was also very good..

The 2 albums following couldn't quite keep up, but they were in no sense bad, their newest album Metamorphosis, even tho without any of the original vocals, is suprisingly a very awesome album :)

[MadGodful]

@schecter707 I recommend 11 Dream and Everblack

[JenEbonyful]

I totally love Mercenary. Fuck yeah!!!!

[trackfinder]

que gran banda!!

[Niamorg1007]

I'm seeing these guys with Nevermore in a month, and that's the first time I hear one of their songs! I really like it.. Could someone tell me honestly if they are as good live?

[Avaith]

@Niamorg1007

I saw them at graspop in 2007 and they were awesome!

&I'm also seeing these guys on the power of metal tour. I hope they'll be as good as back then. :D

(very looking forward to it! ^^)

[stevepuppetz]

this song is so amazing, mercenary are very underrated, but my god their fucking amazing \m/

[IateurMoomOut]

MORE COMMENTS ABOUT STUPID ASS JUSTIN BEIBER MORE FAMOUS THAT BITCH GETS SO STFU WITH THE JUSTIN BEIBER SHIT OR ILL RUN A MILE(;

[RenzXVI]

is it just me or i see the name justin beiber more often in metal videos instead of pop videos........

[TheShezz33]

@RenzXVI It's true, and pretty damn pathetic.

[lilbluependragon]

@RenzXVI

I find it very annoying as well...

[MadGodful]

Holy fuck!! Listen to those haunting screams!!!

[Azria032]

I dig the instrumentation...

but the vocals just didnt do it for me

[ArtChildMovement]

@Azria032 i agree with you

[THKANIA]

ta spaei!!!!!!

[zezizzebezt]

WHY THE FUCK does this video only have 84k views??

[999TheHairDk666]

Saw them last night, they rooooocked!!!

[Lifeline4truth]

I LOVE MERCENARYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY­

[asjedpjasa]

amazing

[sirblunder]

the only reason hes anything is cuze of USHER grrr some poeple get lucky i guess but HE BLOWS END OF STORIE

[drevilrodrigues]

Now i can say i love all 11 dreams album, is simply amazing the presence of kral gave a dark atmoshpere to all the songs, even the most shitty song(music non stop) had his dark emotions on it

i think after this album only on hours that remain song and on death connection i heard again some of that dark atmosphere mercenary presented on this album

also i was checking what Kral did after mercenary, and there's no records of them, is sad that to such a great bassist was never heard again :(

[Stratophony]

@drevilrodrigues Music Non Stop is a great song dude.... and one hell of a cover.

If anything... the only "bad" (i'd say "Filler" is more appropriate) song on that album is "Falling".... and it's still a pretty damn good song by itself

[drevilrodrigues]

@Stratophony

maybe the term i used wasn't the most correct

i like all the album but for me music non stop is what sounds more commercial to me, but still very good to listen

Falling i loved that one before, but as i listened more the others that became completely behind for me to concerning the others of course

[MetalBeatGuitar]

omg this is fuckin Amazing!!! I really love the vers!

[jacobhc9000]

I love this Danish band!

[blackmetalblunt]

i could easily go for a whole album with vocals like the ones at 0:20 to 0:37. Just awesome.

[Zadeify]

This band has a few good songs. Though I think they haven't given their everything to their music. They have tons of shitty songs.

[lilbluependragon]

Anyone heard anything about Mikkels new project?

[lgalicki]

Kral + Mikkel = vocal orgasm!

[darkcyan]

CenturyMedia needs fo upload their videos in better fucking quality. This is tinny as hell.

[666metalsucks666]

amazing... 

[iateacidsmurf]

um amazing song, but which one is the chorus?

[melonka007]

Realmente muy buenos!!!!  they are very good

[metalmarzio]

they're certainly not melodic death. I would call it power metal.

[SvennePung]

@metalmarzio its melodic but its only heavy metal not death metal

[Aerba54]

Their vocal range is really impressive.

[dthmetalrox]

sick

[Huyarist]

my dear @fookereddie! justin bieber is not a gay! he's a girl ! : ))

a fucking stupid baby girl! : ))

wanna get some shit of famous! poor bieber! poor little girl!

[leatherface4444]

@Huyarist Uhhh, Good to see how many who hates justin Bieber.

[leatherface4444]

@fookereddie Agreed.

[Heretic123456]

@fookereddie dont insult all the gay people!

[leatherface4444]

@fookereddie Keep the facts coming, lol :p

[skipp22]

@fookereddie What's the world's obsession with Justin Bieber? If you hate him so much just pay not attention to him. That way he'll slowly die out like the other heart throbs of yesteryear and what does he have anything to do with Mercenary? Or you just saying this to get some thumbs up as a cry for attention?

[TheKabor]

@skipp22 Totaly agree with you I would have not even ever heard about him with out youtube "hate" comment.

[Bubis20]

@skipp22 finally someone clever 

[mcg413]

@fookereddie Oh, COME ON!! You ruined the comment section with this. There's no fucking point mentioning him when it's never needed!

[Limaveliki]

@fookereddie yes he is but no more gayer than this shit

[guitarmaniac83]

@fookereddie why bring his name up on melo/death music....i dont understand why people keep mentioning him...the more you do the more famous he is gonna get...stop with the B comments

[jetjunkie16]

@fookereddie this is irrelephant

[blackendandwhite]

a friend showed me this band last night i must say this is amazing considiring they are from denmark ?

[lilbluependragon]

@blackendandwhite

It's really a shame that no one knows who they are. I have no idea why either, they were so good...

[BringerDeath666]

This is fantastic....Fuck that crappy jazz version they did. This is the real shit!

[bloodystain]

One of the best metal voices in all metal, of all time.

[KakashiBallZ]

If Mercenary survives without Mikkel and Morten, I'll be shitfaced-amazed.

[Warmeni]

so powerful song, great vocals

[Bloodthirst666dbm]

kick that bold guy out! he obviously suck and make the long haired vocal guy take over and make it into thrash metal instead!

then we're talking!  \m/

[drake612]

hahaha true dude ;) lml

[Bloodthirst666dbm]

@drake612

:-D

[lilbluependragon]

@Bloodthirst666dbm

Okay 'long haired vocal guy' left the band two albums ago. And 'bald head guy' is gone now. Who knows they might turn into a fucking thrash band I have no idea, but I'm probably going to hate it.

[shibby996]

Mercenary split a few weeks ago! Too bad, we will never see them again like this!!! :-(((

[blackshirej]

A few WEEKS ago? Been longer than that bud...but yeah, definitely sucks. I believe they will be continuing the band...but it just won't be the same.

[lilbluependragon]

Mikkel and his brother are doing a new project though, they got some members from Nevermore and Biomechanical in this new band. No idea what kind of music it will be though, metal I assume judging by it's members.

[Thusyanthan]

wow amazing vocals

[ErikVilardo]

wth. this song is originally 7 minutes!!! why is it messed up here? i think youtube is supposed to take videos up to 10 minutes, is it not??

[hartattack940]

they might of shortnd the music video version.. it caust a good bit of money to make a video.

[blackshirej]

This is the music video...many music videos are shortened versions when the songs are longer.

[ethanor]

too bad half of the band left: lead singer Mikkel Sandager, drummer Mike Park and pianist Morten Sandager whent to Pretty Maids

[DivinityOfDoom]

Really? I used to listen to Pretty Maids in the 90's, wonder what's that's gonna sound like now.

[pkj77]

heard some of the new stuff here on youtube studio reports sounds HEAVY!!

[muser1000]

Mercenary should tour with Manticora it would be perfect!

[guitarmasterNL]

Just hearing this band for the first time now, sounds great!!!

[TheFlamingDemigod]

HAIL! HAIL MERCENARY! \m/

[guitaraddict88]

whose the female singer in this?? this song is fucking amazing!! i still like Isolation!!!

[xxxAloopzzz]

Monika Pedersen

[devSchi]

- the female vocal, songs sooo cool:)

[leatherface4444]

Lol. The guy on the piano was my music-teacher xD (Dont think I don't know his name, lol)

[lilbluependragon]

You mean keyboard? How do you know him?

[leatherface4444]

My music-teacher, lol xD

[lilbluependragon]

Damnit lol, I had just woke up I must not have been all there!

That's pretty awesome XD

[leatherface4444]

Yeah. He was a really good teacher, but my m8's made alot of noise and sometimes didnt show up for the lessons, lol xD

[lilbluependragon]

Haha lucky..

[leatherface4444]

Yeah xD

[SOULC0BRA]

i give it 4 stars. or maybe 3~1/2. ahhhhh fuc it i'll give it 4.

[getspsycho]

Why not 5 stars? ^^

That is great ;D!

[Kimme1001]

last time i heard them was live i shoyted FIRE SOUL it was the coolest song cya mikkel:D

[lilbluependragon]

I really hope that Mikkel and his brother will pick up and start another band of their own. I'd hate to see a voice like his go to waste..

[mrsdethmetl]

gzuz such sick ass vocals!!

[Sekmeth7]

An sich sich ziemlich gut... aber der Klargesang ist leider so gar nicht mein Fall.

Vor allem in der etwas höheren Tonlage- erinnert mich an Powermetal (mag ich gar nicht).

[chibimikuhatsune1]

Drummer, singer and keyboardplayer leaves Mercenary T______T

[mrdlore]

Bad news:

Mikkel, Mike, and Morten have left the band.

That really sucks.

[ChristTubot]

so we only got the original guitars :(

looking forward to see if there'll be any familiar names, when the new members are revealed;)

[lilbluependragon]

They only have one original member left, and he fired half the band....

[emgu1618]

Oh No!! when did this happen!!! Shit!!

I listen to Mercenary all fuckin' day.

terrible news.

[lilbluependragon]

Look up 'Mercenary fires half the band'.... :(

[ReaperRedeemer]

So I guess this is the end of Mercenary as we know it. Damn, that really sucks indeed!

[ThePowerFromTheEvil]

mercenary is not ending. the bassist(rené) is the new lead singer. and mercenary has got a new drummer.

[lilbluependragon]

I can't help but notice that no one tries to cover these songs...I've been looking up guitar parts for these songs for ages and I can't find them.

[TheFlamingDemigod]

BEST SONG EVER!!!HAIL MERCENARY!!!

[drevilrodrigues]

This album from mercenary, had a magic and a strenght that they couldn't reach again yet, in my opinion, despite of that the mercenary sound is still amazing... and mercenary are still in the pole position of my favourtie metal bands

[ALexXxBeCKEr]

Well, that awesome screaming comes from the bassist which left after 11 Dreams :"(. Anyhow, Mercenary today sound fucking awesome, not many bands have that incredibly violent sound. Every note sound like it's being hammered ;D

I love Mercenary :")

[drevilrodrigues]

i totally agree, Mercenary has a violent sound, that sounds really good... I rediscovered the last album after being some months in 11 dreams and the hours that remain... and is a fact that they continue to sound great... but there was some dark emotions on 11 dreams that appeared no more after the bassist quit... as i know The Bassist don't quited in problems with the band, he had any problem... don't know well

But Mercenary are Mercenary until the end

[guitarsehole]

@drevilrodrigues Absolutely! Same here man...they're in the top five for me. But their last three albums are all stand out efforts.

[Ultraman725]

@drevilrodrigues I think its the production. 11 Dreams had a really good balance between clean and heaviness, along with a great technique for making the bass intense. In the future records the guitars seemed to be louder than the bass.

[lilbluependragon]

@Ultraman725

The 11 Dreams album was very well mixed.

[captfinely]

just enjoy their Work... 3years of listening to this guys.... never gets old :)

[R0b0Trav0lta]

On their myspace they are listed as: Metal/progressive/death metal. on the metal archives they are listed as melodic death metal/power metal. They're sound seems liek a prety good meld of power metal and gothenberg esque melo-death, so I'm ok with metal archives description

I love his screaming! :D
