Demoniac - The Eagle Spreads Its Wings

[djmarchellohungary]

the only thing i cant unterstand is how such an awesome band release the album with this stupid cover xD as i listen the music i expected medieval battles, dragons or knights on it :D but you guys know anyways the music is still godly

[Vampiric59]

wow herman li should have stayed in this band

[PenCapCheww]

I like it. I think Herman pulled the guitar off just right. Something different is always swell.

[Tenkaichibudokai22]

what a crap

[Klasharx3x]

imagine technical death metal from herman li and sam totman..

[megakid888]

sounds like children of bodom

[0verlord1841]

this is so hilariously bad it's awesome :D

on the topic of black metal: Summoning. Lunar Aurora.

[joep45621]

This is like the child of Dani Filth (Any black metal fans will know what I'm talking about) and Herman Li. EPIC WIN

[JamesHazBeHaiTyme]

@joep45621 "any black metal fans" and you talk about a member of a barely black metal band =L

[joep45621]

@JamesHazBeHaiTyme Are you meaning Cradle are hardly black metal?

I suppose your right, but many people who listen to black metal know of Cradle xD

[MrSauasageMan]

anyone knows where i can download this song?

[lucaslokoserver]

??? , Power Black Metal Oo ,

[JamesHazBeHaiTyme]

@lucaslokoserver They album was labeled Blackened Power Metal at the time =]

[gothless]

This is confusing... Power Metal emerged as to counter the negativity of  Black/Death Metal... I guess this just simply neutralizes ,,,

[as101345207]

@gothless happily sad blackned power black metal, that's what this is, and it its badass

[gothless]

@as101345207 Call me an asshole... But I prefer Black and Power Metal to separate... Dun get me wrong.. I listen to both genres.. But dun like em mixed...

[as101345207]

@gothless lmfao, I haven´t called you anything and I won't ever do that unless you give me very valid reasons, because I disaprove internet arguments. also, its confusing that i love power metal and i dont like black metal half as much, but i absolutely loove this band. I prefer DragonForce, though.

[davidrulzie]

It's sad that this band used to be a New Zealand band than they went to England and everyone started saying and thinking different...

[hw2410]

¿Como es que ya no hay mas grupos asi powerblackmetaleros?

[oghjrnf]

I like these vocals :o

[exilex666]

this is the happiest black metal ive ever heard :D

[Goutetsu13]

@exilex666 Happy black metal? You need to hear Nargaroth.

watch?v=RvfQqJeNF08

[dr4g0n121]

See the dragons breathing see them flying in the sky

Killing all the mortals lets us watch and see them die

We kill!

We hear the screams of the laughter

We fly!

To crush and cause disaster

Best part of the song

[elsonidodeluniverso]

tssssss

very good group

[kancherito33]

People don't like this because they just can't mix Power Metal with BLack Metal, they just feel like they can't be together, but that's being an asshole, because they refuse to listen to new stuff and prefer to stay with two separate genres. I think Demoniac is great. I actually downloaded their last album "The Fire and the Wind", and it's sick as hell.

[snateraar]

LOL

[TranceWulf]

its unique, therefore people dont like it. people dont like unique things, but i like this, its a good sound.

[kancherito33]

@TranceWulf Yeah, actually it's a rare video this one, and I found one with Demoniac performing Live. If you wanna see it, PM me.

[eddysantiagosoto]

Pure Blackened Power Metal

[The3GoldenBananas]

lmfao black power metal. happy guitar + black metal vocals = gay but HILARIOUS!

Dragonforce is much better imo, glad Sam and Herman didn't stick with this band

[darkseclusion]

The combination of happy sounding riffs and vocals just doesn't seem to fit

[TheBloodOrchid]

This is the worst blackmetal I've ever heard. Blackmetal should not have power metal riffs in it. Thumb down all you want. This sucks.

[weiqiang123]

Reget listening & load tis video...

[Scarecrowkira]

I love how Herman Li Recycles his riffs and melodies into other songs and hopes nobody will notice Hahaha

[MrHumanToilet]

@Scarecrowkira Herman Doesn't have anything to do with it. Sam writes the songs.

[mcjack11]

not bad, i guess...

[HammnerFall1993]

I dont know why but...... I like it :D:D

[Lunhyver]

This is a waste of my time...

[NapalmDude13]

This is proof of how mainstream black metal is just too fucking scene right now, all the emo bands are trying it....

Hial all true black metal, early demoniac....

[DrummerKowalski]

What a crazy contrast between the VOX and the music. It's cool that he's even using DF style cadences.

[BlackDarkz]

Quel cadavere è maleducato

[Alonetime5]

Wow damn u can definetly tell that sam wrote the guitar. Does not fit the vocals lol.

[cooliovasquez]

@Alonetime5 duh, sam writes the guitar for basically every dragonforce song so naturally he wrote them all for this band too

[allof8death]

@Alonetime5 it DEFF fits the vocals dude. how does it not fit? its the perfect blend of heavy and happy and they are in the same keys so they sound perfect

[Alonetime5]

@allof8death Idk mbey im just to used to zp's voice along with this guitar style. But w/e, just personal opinions.

[IamTheLandolfo]

u get used to to mindless screams after a little while

[kadvid]

lol, nice. Nice vocals. Sounds a bit Pagan Metal to me, though the music obviously isn't.

[Axisband00]

Sounded SUPER Dragonforcey until the vocals kicked in...

[TheMatsterx]

@Axisband00 i know you've posted this a long time ago, but if im correct that is sam screaming actually

[TheEvilsocky]

@TheMatsterx No but the singer did make a guest spot on IR, Revolution Deathsquad I think?

[MercyfulBates]

@TheEvilsocky It's Operation Ground and Pound mainly, but I think he may have been on RD too :)

[ZakTheFallenAngel]

@MercyfulBates And Lost Souls In Endless Time, The Flame Of Youth, And Body Breakdown

[Semyazaable]

@Axisband00 both guitarists are founding members of Dragonforce

[tommynnocker]

@Axisband00 that's cos it's Sam Totman from Dragonforce on guitar!

[djmarchellohungary]

@Axisband00 id be a bigger fan of DF if they were playing those awesome songs in this music style... not referring to the singer but the style itself

[ZakTheFallenAngel]

@Axisband00 then it sounded DEMONIACY

[pomegranatification]

This is a fun song. As with all of the Demoniac songs I've heard, I massively love the music, and the vocals are... tolerable. (Barely. I don't know; maybe I just don't listen to enough metal/screams to really appreciate it.)

[Immortalicast]

pretty sure demoniac are a german band formed in 1990

[BismarkSS]

Demoniac was the first name that Moonblood went under and changed it cause of the NZ band.

[JamesHazBeHaiTyme]

that was a different demoniac.

[Zelkiiro]

I was liking it until the vocals kicked in.

Then I tried my damnedest to ignore them. And failed.

What the hell were they thinking?

[0verlord1841]

is it wrong that i can understand most of the lyrics without reading them first?

and that i listen to this whilst playing oblivion?

[sebas379]

first part: no I can hear most of them too, and 2, well, I cán't judge about that

[Erithlon]

wtf? i always hate people saying like 'THat iz not BlaCk MeTal!'

but if you think this is black metal, you should go see a doctor.

[rocketastro]

i hate black metal

and i love power metal

and this is O_ô GREAT ?!?!?! wtf

[zanax72]

where are they from???

[SuperDemoneye]

Wellington, New Zealand

[IamTheLandolfo]

I love the part "with winter calling...WE WILL SURVIVE!!!" and then the chorus. Lots of fun, even with screaming

[CreeCore94]

i laughed so hard man omg this is fucken funny

[ivanzernebog]

Vocals don't fit at all.

[666Mutilador]

jajjajajaj, WTF? it sound like blackened power metal

[SteelSkin667]

@666Mutilador That's because it is.

[SuperDemoneye]

I agree. IT'S A CASE OF DRAGONFORCE MEETING BLACK METAL.

[JamesHazBeHaiTyme]

It was Dragonforce... this was Herman and Sam's band before Dragonheart (later renamed dragonforce).

So its more the fact that Dragonforce is a case of demoniac meeting power metal ^_^; as demoniac came first =p.

[Malik82691]

This is totally black metal, its fact....anyone who disagrees knows nothing about the genre. PERIOD!

[rollingstoner17]

hmmm.....it'll linger.

[GMPO2]

This is a strange mix, too melodic for Black Metal. DragonForce members do Power better than Black.

[NateCola]

pop black metal FTW

[Aureneau]

what the FUCK? it sounds like gollum taking a shit...and it's murdering my ears... D8

[raredrumd]

SO GOOD.

[BananoPower2]

0:00 - 0:36 this shit sounds like it was ripped off from a Sonic The Hedgehog game

[evemfs]

@BananoPower2 You made me lol :D

[Hyenashowl]

Wow, I guess I wasn't the only person to think that!

[DragonWarriorX99]

kinda sounds like Dragonforce (cause of herman li) XD

except the singing lol.

[Assahssinangolanno]

I thought Dragonforce was the worst band in the planet...until I found out this...er, thing.

Seriously how can people like this?this is an abomination,an insult to Metal and also to the intelligence of the listener

[Mattgt128]

This sounds like pop punk wtf???

[TTRUA]

well , this isnt black metal

its way too happy to be black metal

Mayhem its black metal

but it is cool

[powermetalbest]

Herman is a Genius men!!

[Aeilegs]

Im gonna kill myself laughing.

[InhumanUnderworld]

Who's the singer?

[IamTheLandolfo]

Lindsay Dawson. Someone said that he did the rough vocals on Inhuman Rampage, but I dunno if it's true.

[0verlord1841]

yeah, he did.

[epicsheep]

Yes his stage name is behemoth and he did some backing tracks on inhuman i believe body break down and some others. This is better then dragonforce byfar zp is a awesome singer but this flows better with more generes powermetal is very specific in tastes

[InhumanUnderworld]

DragonForce with black metal vocals... interesting.

[IamTheLandolfo]

Herman said at some point in an interview that this band was a joke, or at least that none of the members took it too seriously.

Oddly, I find this extremely tolerable compared to most black metal. It would be even better with ZP singing, but the screams/growls have a character all their own.

[genocide98]

This isn't black metal.. and if it had ZP singing it wouldn't even be close.

[fanslayer2]

Agree, man! It's not even close to black metal...

[EivindS94]

is that sam totman having sex while drinking on that picture?

[atheistlord666]

yes, go on encyclopedia metallum and search for demoniac if you want to see the actual pic

[SonicPanther2001]

Yeah Lol

[sasasayakuza]

@EivindS94 Yes jaja you can search this album in metal archives and look at the original (not distorted One) cover

[DETHFAN18ALL2]

@EivindS94 and flipping the bird

[garlictoothpaste]

the instrumentals are good. i love dragonforce, and this reminds me of there old stuff.....but the vocals INSTANTLY ruined the whole song.

[svonk92]

I totally agree

[FurbyParade226]

Why would you people thumbs-down this comment?! LOL  Everything he said is true. Even the person that uploaded this video thinks its hilarious!! You people take this too seriously.

[atheistlord666]

this band would make a good melodeth band.

Kinda reminds me of norther, you should check them out

[DragonForceRhapsody]

uploaded "burn the witch" by demoniac. check it out

[Svasprod]

avant-garde post hiphop?

[ICSVortex2009]

Melodic GrindCore :D

[Malik82691]

grindcore is gay.

[GrindWorm]

so are you

[Malik82691]

good one...dumbass lol

[firm1234567]

power black metal

[uby54ty06]

@firm1234567 blackened power metal

[as101345207]

@firm1234567 Extreme Blackned Power Metal

[quinchogore]

somebody who knows about this band can share niggerslut lyrics to me please

[Malik82691]

dude you could have gone and typed it in google and it it easily got in a second...I think you just wanted to say "Niggerslut" cause you thinks its funny. haha?

[DragonForceRhapsody]

no you fucking idiot. if you would know about this band you would know that the niggerslut lyrics cant be found anywhere. not even in the booklet of the stormblade album.

quit!

[Malik82691]

Dude, don't be one of those pussies that talks shit over Youtube, seriously...down boy!

[quinchogore]

yep good budy!!

[Itza996]

Great, We Have Blackened Power.

Now i want Glam/Doom, Epic Thrash, Progresive Nu, Deathglam, etc.

[sk8rpunk46]

what about Symphonic/Melodic Thrashcore?

[XileOfTheStickman]

would be kind of cool eh?

[sunnyguitardude]

best post ever!!!

Nu-speed?

[Jazqaa]

Im fan of black metal but the singer is pretty bad. :P

[atheistlord666]

I cant help but notice many similarities in between the guitar riffs in demoniac and the valley of the damned riffs

0:12- 0:30 sounds a lot like black winter night

The vocals are cool as well

[lepie1]

Herman li and Sam Totman played in this band :p.

[atheistlord666]

yeah I know

I like dragonforce but demoniac pwns them

[TranceWulf]

I love this, happy instrumentals over screams is a great combo X3

[MetalOnyxWolf]

If I remember right Dragonforce used the singer on their Inhuman Rampage album

[Goldenkid115]

this band is just awful Herman Li should have gone back to Drangonforce

[Drocks0]

This band disbanded before Dragonforce was even formed.

[mictain666]

this was heman li's first band before DF

[apage920]

this is actually pretty good, though that may partially be because I actually like screams. I just wish they were better at screaming than this, a 3 inches of blood - type high pitched scream would be a much better fit for the music. Though kicking their vocalist and getting ZP Theart works too.

[XileOfTheStickman]

wouldnt be blackened powermetal if that happened.

[Malik82691]

Im glad they didnt keep doin' this bullshit haha

[sexystum]

nah this sucks, got well excited about herman li maybe doing something different, but its not. impressive talent, un-impressive sound.

[Drocks0]

Well they formed Dragonforce the same year this album came out. I doubt any guitarist would drastically change their playing style the same year they start playing a genre that their style was good for.

[Xx444nathan444xX]

I hear some punk elements here.

The vocals match.

It almost sounds like some Choking Victim or Leftover Crack.

Check out "Infested" by Choking Victim,

and you'll see what I mean.

[Adardardar1]

lmfao

[laguero99]

power black metal ???? LMAO xD

dragonforce ruless xD

[IgorFranca]

this is the old times of dragonforce guys ahuhuahuahua TRYING to make black metal this is fucking hilarious huahuahuahuhua

[robintpup2]

Haha, this band is great and hilarious at the same time.

[Guitarism300]

i would be into this band if it wasn't all scream.

[TheZiqvpix]

This wont work :P

[terretetetito]

power metal and black metal simply can't combine themselves, maybe a bit, like blast beats and power vocals (wich is DragonForce style) but you can't combine high pitched guitars with growl vocals

[XF360]

the singer spoilios it his voice is shit if they had dragonforce singer it wud be so much better

[StupidQuestionZ]

lol its a picture of sam buttfucking some chick while flicking us off and drinking a beer XD

[SlayerMaidenEnemy]

LMFAO THIS IS EPIC

[suprsnypr]

as soon as the guitars start, you can tell its Herman and Sam lol. They've got their own sound

[chantofeskhaton]

Blackened Power Metal! Great! now I want to hear Folk Goregrind, Brutal Power Metal and Technical Drone/Doom Metal

[Decklocation]

That would be awesome my friend!

[matichewbacca]

grande la banda , voz de mierda

[Shink5]

this isnt black metal this is gay poser shit

[potatomonkeyrap]

how gay its like fall out boy and black metal... even then dragonforce sucked

[sixthgearofficial]

Sounds like a black metal version of Black Winter Night lol. You can tell the resemblence of DragonForce in the guitar music though. Not so much the vocals...

[patryknik]

ot nou black mettal is melodick death

[GrowlMaster666]

hahah ;D Firstly u must teach how to write correctly . It,s not melodic death man , It's power and melodic (not melodic death) metal , because this song it's too happy and guitars sounds like simple black metal . If u don't know many important things about metal , don't write stupid posts ;]

[Filosofem2008]

i love this band

[BoneBaron]

lol :0

[cameronsd]

this is actually funny

[mahinangbooter]

Sounds like a stupid happy demon singing because of the guitar.

I agree it is actually funny

[supapuffy2007]

lol black power metal

[megadethfans96]

guitar like dragonforce

[BoneBaron]

its like DF cus sam and herman were in demoniac b4

[0verlord1841]

for some reason, i listen to demoniac when i play oblivion lol

[ABlackDahliaMurderer]

well from what i read no one knows what Black Metal, Power Metal and Death Metal is... Black Metal is mainly about the message it creates not the style its played... Power Metal is basically clean vocals, ballads and mighty solos... and Death Metal is summed up in two words... Cannibal Corpse

[BEHOLDTHESKIES2014]

that album cover is ridiculous

[metalmario128]

google the real one, that one is blurred =D

[atheistlord666]

I can really feel the dragonforce in this music even though the vocals are much harsher
