KIUAS - The Decaying Doctrine

[1997ontherun]

Remembered all this good stoof :D

[1pa2ch]

One notices that it's a finnish band - both top comments are completely incomprehensible... :P

No, seriously, I'm fascinated by the Finnish language - it's so different from everything else. Knowing Swedish, for example, doesn't help one little bit, as it's from a different language family... :) Are there songs by Kiuas in Finnish?

[Elphidion]

@1pa2ch The last part of Across The Snows is sung in finnish. I'd love to know what the lyrics are, as I don't speak finnish. I don't think that Google Translate would make it any more comprehensible. :'(

[wulfjakal]

jesus and his crowd deslike this

[Kurimustko]

@wulfjakal Jesus and pals can go and listen to gospel and what ever crappy music they listen, and leave the good music to us who appreciate the good music.

[wulfjakal]

@Kurimustko sure they can,sure they yet can fuck theyr own asses; they are just a bunch of assholes,they even don't know what is poetry in disaster,they believe in ''god''

[Timeconsumer0]

Just saw them live supporting Turisas without their lead singer, still awesome

[theblackleaf]

fucking love this band!!!

[WishmasterTheDark]

Great song, but mediocre band.

[Maikou77]

One of the best riffs ever discovered! \m/ And this band is one reason to be proud that im from Fin-fucking-land

[Kompruutteri]

myGrainin t-paita :D Hyvä bändi kummiski.

[TheSlayTallica]

@Kompruutteri no ihan saatan hyvä ihmettelen vaa et miks ei oo kuuluisampi ku luulis ainaki :)

[Fowethebox]

perkele saatana |,,|

[Anuku]

Does anyone know what he's singing right in the beginning, before the cleans come in? I can't make it out for the life of me.

[mrchriss]

@Anuku "Blessed are those who write their own scriptures, for they shall be kings of the new world"

[davidevo20]

i saw them in notts rock city just 500 people came to see them ..why???

[Dragorien]

Iljaa tulee ikävä kyllä. Ei voi muuta sanoo.

[jjusak92]

hyvästi Ilja...

[Darkonode1]

the most epic riff i've heard in a while..

[drumius]

How I love this band so far. Epic metal, yet rock'n'roll and extravagant, over the top without being too serious... A breath of fresh air from open minded musicians.

[rabcor]

crappy video, good song.

[DominoShredder]

hahahaha omg. XD 

[EsoterikSurgery]

They did the shittest cover of This Love by Pantera

[bReNtOfF]

@EsoterikSurgery That cover was so inventive and amazing, one of the best on that album. It might not have been 'Pantera-like' enough for you, but ffs, that is an awesome song. Don't destroy what you don't understand :3

[EsoterikSurgery]

@bReNtOfF true, and i support bands that do their own thing with covers, thats a good thing, but theres was maybe i little bit too much Kiuas influence which in turn turned the song into something quite shit. I never said that Kiuas was shit either.

[TheFlanagator]

@EsoterikSurgery may be the case, but everything else they do is pure quality

[hejdk6]

@EsoterikSurgery The cower was awesome, and the tribute they made to Dimebag (Bleeding strings) is even more so, besides, this band with it original member is still better than pantera ever was.

[Tqmi72]

Niin täydellisyyttä, eeppistä <3 ja oli myös livenäki aivan mahtava, käykää tsekkaa meikän channleist samasesta biisistä MTR live versio

[Temetsekki]

Tää on vaan niin eeppinen

[ViciousArcanum]

"FIRE RAINS DOWN FROM THE HEEEAVENS,POURING DOWN ON THOSE TOO WEAK TO LEARN,ON THE RUINS OF A DEAD RELIGION,STANDING TALL AS THE ENSLAVING DOCTRINES BURN" EPIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIC \m/o.O\m/

[Ninochkaz]

Tää on aivan törrrkeen hyvä, kiitos, thank you!!!!

A W E S O M E

[Finntroll17]

I can't wait to see them at the end of the month!

[HoundofOdin]

I love this song. Glory to the gods of old!

[HoundofOdin]

I love this song. Glory to the gods of old!

[Erithlon]

this kicks ass!

[MrXtamar999]

after watching this i sure will XD

[drgstr26]

Fuck you cunt go die

[POFkennoth]

aye

[FinnMetal4Life]

@Temetsekki i'd be standing next to you yelling "DO A FLIP!"

[amarth23]

@Temetsekki Question!,. Who the fuck are Tokio Hotel?.. I'm serious I have never heard of them :)

[Temetsekki]

@amarth23 don't even bother mate. you don't want to know them

[PontikkaSeppo]

@Temetsekki ME TOO!!!

[LibertyWaxlips]

@Temetsekki Aha. Did you know nobody gives a flying fuck? Yeah, nobody. Not me, not the internet etc.

[13Varyag]

@LibertyWaxlips

Just ignore them mate... children need their ego to be fed.

[AngryWind99]

Has some atmosphere to it.

[DogThatRoars4Fire93]

@ darkaurasinner Overkill, Testament, Voivod, Annihilator, Sodom, Destruction, Exodus, Forced Entry, Am I Blood, Death Angel, & Dark Angel would be others to compete against Slayer.

[BjIann]

Terrible cover of This Love on the Metal Hammer CD..

[amarth23]

I thought this song was called "of ancient wounds"?

[ryamam]

no thats a dif song but its great one of my favs

[SilverEvolver]

His voice reminds me of Chris Cornell at times man

[diaryofthedead]

i might get thumbs down to this and i dont intend it as an insult but

does anyone else heare a dave mustaine and megadeth influence?

this album is amazing truly i love it

[ajrapps]

this is beyond Mustaine's reach of influence

[diaryofthedead]

im not saying the whole song would sound like it just at some points he has a similar tone to mustaines voice

[Metalscavenger]

@ diaryofthedead

youtube is full of assholes xD

[diaryofthedead]

your tellin me ha i got 5 thumbs down for an opinion haha

[RASVAKEITINv23]

@ diaryofthedead

You tell me that you care?

[diaryofthedead]

i dont i just said that as an understatement

[TiikerinKarva]

It was good from 0:00 to 0:56

Although I used to like this once.. But now I'm into a lot heavier stuff. Ilja makes this band too light.

I would like this band a lot more if the vocals would be done by Pekka Kokko - check Kalmah.

[Kent3003434]

fuck yea dude, kalmah is insane, check out wintersun if you havent already or storm warrior or battle master

[hejdk6]

@TiikerinKarva Ilja's vocals are awesome, when its all deep it sounds the same, and growl just sucks, Ilja has a very unique voice which is why hes so awesome and so good.

[jamesrocks4eva]

Intro sounds just little like Opeths' 'The grand conjuration'.

[frozenchicken56]

@jamesrocks4eva tru

[ajrapps]

not not like but similar. both amazing songs and bands. Opeth is slightly better i would say though

[eliasisnemesis]

this song is talking about the NEW WORLD ORDER they just dont make it obvious yes it is the new UPCOMING DARK AGE we are slowly moving into 2012

[HorusNikopol]

kiuas ftw! one of my favorite bands. kinda wish they would have made a video for conqueror instead though, best song on the album

[silverthehedgehog007]

They did

[HorusNikopol]

thanks

[taxi911]

whoa!!!! there is a video for conqueror... as in... an official "Kiuas" certified video of "Conqueror"... at the moment it's appearing as the 1st video on the right under the "related videos". hope you find it... it's got a little kid in it btw...

[machinehead2324]

They did make a vid for it.

[llamaswithattitude]

They did make a video for Conqueror!

[iiismooo]

kiuas perkele!!

[shmafancy]

Kiuas, you guys rule the fucking world of metal. please tour the US. haha.

\m/

[TheDrizztMan]

damn dude, i can't get enough of these guys. and still after 2 1/2! kiuas till the end baby!

[candykisses713]

i just discovered these guys. another great finnish band, surprise surprise. that country just shits awesome musicians.

[Omnivorium]

@candykisses713

Im proud of my country, thoguh we have lots of suckage artists as well...

[Ch3k0v]

@candykisses713 well said

[wrhinoinyou]

greatest thrash metal band , perhaps i'd place them after METALLICA...........and the delivery of power may be(as concern of metallica) much improved than metallica

[metalbound7]

Kiuas is Power Metal actually, and if you wanna talk about Thrash, Sodom and Kreator are the best bands, no Metallica. And if you don't believe me just ask any True Metalhead thar is really into Thrash and know bands from Dark Angel to Evile. And btw only Thrash Metal albums by Metallica are the first 4 albums, the BA and DM are Heavy Metal, Load and Reload are Hard Rock and St. Anger is Shitty Nu Metal so you can´t even compare Metallica with real Thrash Metal bands.

[Paramecium302]

i have nothing to add to this comment except my approval of it.

[darkaurasinner]

@metalbound7 Actually...Slayer is the best thrash band. There is NO WAY IN HELL you can compare Slayer to Kreator, sorry but no...

You're completely right about Metallica though, most overrated band in the world.

[DogThatRoars4Fire93]

@ darkaurasinner Overrated doesn't mean bad. The entire big four thrash bands have had a moment (or even are at a continued status) on 'selling out'. Stating Slayer is the best thrash metal band is an opinion and many would disagree, but I would rather bring to the table some underrated bands, since the overrated wouldn't be best to compete on comparison (even though Slayer has sold the 2nd-3rd most albums, making Anthrax the least sold thrash band, if you are going by underrated/albums sold)

[Metalscavenger]

i thought tokio hotel was the most overrated in the world

[darkaurasinner]

@Metalscavenger I chose to deny their existence, so I can't acknowledge that they are even rated.

[Metalscavenger]

that's a smart move xD

[hejdk6]

@darkaurasinner Indeed Slayer is the best thras metal band in the world, but the three first metallica cds where fucking awesome, that cant be argued with.

[Om3gaDeath]

You don't know your music, metallica is a shitty "thrash" band, kiuas isn't thrash, they are a power metal band with thrash & death elements, if u like thrash listen to kreator & rumpelslitskin grinder.

[diaryofthedead]

idk i hear alot of thrash in this

in fact theres alot of megadeth elements in this song and then goes into a power metal sound you are right i like you description but i still personally hear thrash

[Om3gaDeath]

@diaryofthedead you would be correct, in the megadeth elements, this song does have some thrash/prog influences, but describing Kiuas are a whole i would say they are a power/prog band with thrash and melodic death influences.

[hejdk6]

@Om3gaDeath Allow me to quote Mikko when talking about the song "Aftermath" "We have ben called powermetal before, but i am sure, that whoever hears this song, will NEVER call us powermetal again."

[Kubik1976]

The New Dark Age-album is bit strange. There are no bad tracks. Not even weak ones. Everything is good or even better. Whole album scores in my list 10/10 and this track 14/10. At least.

Thanks guys!!!

[sithnamqus]

This is one of my favourite songs!

Great sound, great mixing, great production (audio y music video)

Just amazing!!!

[livingdeadbeatuk]

kiuas are amazing =]

this song is so fucking awesome and epic
