  • The duck said: "Yuck yuck". The cat said: "Clock clock". The dog said: "Fuck you both"

  • Fucking Mrrrr!

  • pretty damn cool.

  • better than japanese metal band \m/

  • "Finnish melodic samurai death metal"? Sounds good enough.

  • I DID NOT KNOW THERE WAS SUCH A SUBGENRE!!

    ...Pretty epic.

  • The "like/deslike" bar looks like a marijuana cigarrette...

  • This is Samurai Metal, cause at first it seems like nothing will happen then it gets in your face and slices you up.

  • This band is very unique, but not hard/loud enough.

    I prefer classic BSC. I still like this band though :)

  • 14 people were forced to perform harakiri.

  • Japanese Warrior Tribe/Thrash Death Metal: Mononofu 武士

    モノノフ - 軍神紀伊守、華ノ陵ニ眠ル

  • music therapy ♥♥ love it

  • the song took me to hell i fucking wana marry this song

  • wow

  • @1:10 best opening riff ever :D

  • @96mastodon Best Ever? Every single Metallica song on their first 4 albums had a better intro and riff. Enter Sandman? Puppets? Seek and Destroy? Not even close, sorry! :-)

  • Wow. I think Samurai metal is the genre I've always looked for, but never found. Probably because I hadn't been looking for Japanese metal bands.

    All in all, this is awesome!

  • -waves a flaming Katana in the air- \m/

  • Some pretty rad guitar im not gonna lie. Rock ON GUYS

  • A samurai was an honorable warrior. Samurais followed a code of honor known as bushido. They we're often upper-class.

    The ninja however, consisted mostly of lower-class people, which performed "dirty work" for samurais, like assassinating, spying and other things that would soil the samurai's honor.

  • @TheSincerety

    you call that honor.. It's still the samurai's deed. Even if he didn't commit the act, he constructed it. Fuck this world's train of thought.

  • @methylgofuckyourself yeah, but he diddn't perform it himself. And yes indeed the world is a weird place.

  • @methylgofuckyourself Tended to be that ninja were used more as private police and spies by the Daimyo. The samurai were his private army, while the ninja he employed were his informants, and thus reported that which the samurai would not. Both had their uses, and both engaged in eachother's activities. Samurai could be used as assassins, or spies, but it was hard because of Bushido. Likewise, a ninja could openly be a samurai.

    Both could be the other.

  • @ursuk the dudes a bad ass vocalist. His voice fits the music perfectly.

    @luizo94 He does sound alot like Pretri Lindroos.

    I will definately be checking more of the out kudos to whoever allowed us to partake of this masterpiece.

  • it's me, or the voice of the vocalist it's like Pretri Lindroos

  • @luizo094 This is the first time I ever heard of this band, and I thought the same thing. I even had to go look it up to see if maybe this band was a side-project of his. The resemblance is uncanny.

  • I liked it until he started singing -.-

  • @Urkskurk Oh, really?

  • @ixsetf no ur dumb

  • Actually love this song. Especially the guitar riff :)

  • @captainpegs07 lol. Its funny how ppeople like you watch vids just to troll them. Seriously, if you don't like it, hit the dislike button and move on. Don't waste space in the fourum saying the vid sucks, or the music is listened to by this age group only. Did a survey. Turns out most people, no matter what age, prefer music like this.

  • Our debut "Thousand Swords" has been nominated in the best best Melodeath/Gothenburg album of the year category in the Metal Storm Awards 2010. Vote us for the win or be killed by stealth!!!

  • don't forget

  • joni loves samurai

  • All those who say that metal isn't music should listen to that and stfu.

  • BANZAI ! Finland

  • Man...that's awesome. Also, I'm loving that album cover.

  • As usual I like the demo version better, but this band is great anyways!

  • Comment removed

  • @whisperedofficial That's awesome news! I hope that now that you have one complete album behind, you can start bringing new stuff to us faster than before. I personally waited for Thousand Swords since 2006, which is quite a long time. But the wait was definetely worth it! After tens by tens by tens listens I still get chills down my spine throughout the whole album, especially at the solo part of Of Honor.

  • very fucking creative sound, very original too!

  • this is awesome!

    The vocals remind me of Shagrath from Dimmu, which is not a bad thing ;)

  • @mtllica1991 i was thinking the same exact thing

  • where, is, the,lyrics?!?

  • @iloveyou8forever8

    Google.

  • @MembThePenguinII been done, no lyrics :(

  • @iloveyou8forever8

    Search for "Whispered - Dead Cold Inside lyrics"

    I found tons of pages with the lyrics.

  • I clicked "like" after I heard the first 10 seconds.

  • i never known bout this band WOW I like it Depressing dark I LOVE the whispering sounds of the wind AWESOME!.

  • 3:57 - pure ownage.

  • this is samuri metal not ninja matal... if it was ninja metal you would hear nothing and then die :p

  • @itsjustpornmom1 1 year later and I get a big laugh out of that one. God I love youtube (and I dont believe in god)

  • @mrhanover I'm glad you liked my comment :) Whispered is an amazing band, i diden't get to write that so i will say it now.

  • @itsjustpornmom1 haha no prob man, and btw 122 thumbs up is an accomplishment @_@

  • @mrhanover bold statement....where did ur god rise from or fall out of?4.5 trillion years. thats a long ass time b.c. ...dont you think? lol...seriously...no matter..ur god originated from somewhere.who do you know you worship?

  • @itsjustpornmom1 And they would be at war with Alestorm xD

  • @itsjustpornmom1 Yeah, but If you didnt hear anything, and then jst died, It wouldnt be called music lol

  • samurai?Finland? wtf

  • Avast! Pirate rock is Better!

  • whats that weird guitar type sounding instrument that starts at 48 sec

  • @3cdobrg the shamisen and the koto

  • The solo part was like the best thing I've ever heard, and also the part after the solo...

    I really like this version more than the 2010 one, cause its more simple and its got this calm melody to it.. matching the lyrics.

  • @Deygoats Couldn't agree more with you.

  • @Deygoats indeed well put  \m/

  • fucking better than visualkei fake metal(fuck miyabi dir en gray etc)

    respect this finnish samurai metal spirit \M/

  • @Hardgaymachineguns DeG n this are totally diffrent genres o.o so why mention it ;_;

  • is that Honda in the cover cuz i think he's awsome and so does Whispered

  • holy shit, this is the shit! what melodies :-~~

  • "being still alive makes me feel dead cold inside"!!!!!!!

    parts of the demo version are cool, the thousand sword release should have kept the underproduced intro, but the rest was improved apon. that is an awsome cd Samurai Metal lol

  • I'm normally of the black metal persuasion but I have to say, some death metal is truly beautiful, this band is exceptional!

  • how does this have 62000 views and butt puss only haz 100?

  • fucking good band; that deserves more attention for their superb music.

  • I found this song about 1 1/2 years ago. I didn't remember the name, only the cover of the CD and something like Samurai Metal. I'm glad I found it again because back then this was to heavy in my opinion. But now I really like it !

    But can anybody tell me which instrument plays at 4:45 ? I think it's the same which is always used in fantasy stuff for goblin background music.^^

  • love it! was awesome

  • this band is pretty cool

  • FINNISH JAPANESE WARRIORS RAAAAAAWWRRR!

    The Music does sound pretty good. Interesting, I don't really see how they get Samurai out of it but idk or care. Let bands call themselves what ever they want :D

  • My only problem with this being called samurai metal is that samurai refers more or less to a class of warrior within the society, I'd be inclined to term it japanese folk metal, as it seems a bit specific to say samurai when the musical style is more about the culture of the time, not just the warriors, if you get my meaning.

  • @muslithefish

    I was going to point this out myself.

    Very true though.

  • @muslithefish I kinda agree with you, but almost all the songs by Whispered are lyrically about the samurais, their honor, Benkei etc. And I don't want to call this japanese folk metal, because it's Finnish, that would confuse many people.

  • @muslithefish I suppose then it comes down to whether you define it lyrically or musically. The musical elements are more japanese folk, but the lyrics are heavily based on the samurai, so I suppose it is debatable.

  • @muslithefish Its kinda the same like with Amon Amarth. Its Death Metal, even if they atleast sing about Nothern Myths, Vikings and that all. And its even their words, that they are Death Metal, and not "Viking Metal".

  • @ThanatosVergin But then again that doesn't mean that we can't call them viking metal... I call Amon Amarth viking metal, I call Alestorm pirate metal, I call Whispered samurai metal and I'm not going to stop calling them that anytime soon. No matter how much people come here whining about it.

  • @w1ldch1ld I havent whined a shit about I only said :P Atleast that "I" do not fit with those thousand split-names. ^^ But thats only "my" thinking :P

  • @ThanatosVergin I didn't mean you by the people who come here whining. Most of those whining posts have been deleted because they've been like "f*ck you samurai metal don't exits!!!1111". But thanks for posting something that actually has a point, and I kinda agree with you but I'm too used to calling Amon Amarth viking metal, Whispered samurai metal and Alestorm pirate metal, and it's not just me, but quite many people have accepted and started to use these new "genres".

  • @w1ldch1ld so many genres, you can create your own!

    Stay Fucking Metal!!!

  • @muslithefish

    well isn't that the same as viking metal? in a way?

  • @Jevoapartir Vikings more often refers to that society as a whole, though, I suppose it really should have been called norse folk metal if we wanted to get that specific. I suppose the only thing is the difference of what "viking" refers to when compared with what "samurai" refers to

  • Respond to this video... soooo kick ass

  • terrorist jihad metal. albums come complete with anthrax pouches.....LOL

  • Samurai metal? Fuck yeah.

    Anyone know if they have metal based on Greek Mythology?

  • @cujovspennywise e.g. Trivium is a band with references to both Feudal Japan and Greek Mythology :)

  • @cujovspennywise Rotting Christ.

  • I always listen to this band when I'm drunk. Give it a try sometime

  • Pirate metal, Viking Metal, Roman Metal, Celtic Metal, now samurai metal what next?

  • @Werewolfsnowcone713 We already had this pointless conversation.

  • @Werewolfsnowcone713 viking metal, pirate metal, celtic metal, its all considered folk metal

  • @TheGtrMaster Folk Metal was founded by Skyclad who were kinda Thrash, and Viking Metal by Bathory who were Black Metal. Shit wasn't the same except for the Metal part. Now though the lines in between the two genres are pretty much a fucking mess.

  • @OlogiskaPyromanen94 you sir are a god.

  • @TheGtrMaster I have to disagree. "Swashbuckle's" - Cruiseship Terror is pure thrash, and they are considered pirate metal. Viking and Celtic metal falls under folk metal until I find a band that doesn't thrive off epic battle victories (i.e. Ensiferum) and drinking while dancing to an accordion (more ensiferum or finntroll)

  • @Werewolfsnowcone713 Ninja metal :)

  • @Werewolfsnowcone713

    jesus metal.

  • @Werewolfsnowcone713

    theres roman metal too? and spartan metal..or maybe apache metal

  • @Werewolfsnowcone713 Ninja Metal!!

  • sick melody in this one and the calm parts are great give u a rest from constant non stop same wall of heavy guitar sounds

  • very interesting. me rikey.

  • i had to listen to this vid cuz that samuri on the horse was on a wallpaper on my phone and i had no idea. Damn fags r ripping people off of there cover art!1

  • sehr sehr geil !

  • Ive been looking all over the place for Samurai metal :) I like the Viking Metal too

  • さむらいは すごいですね。

    Incase you can't read Hiragana it means: "Samurai are awesome!"

  • live by the sword died by the sword

  • Lyrics anywhere? Haven't found lyrics for any whispered song

  • That sound .. weird ... I don't think I have heard this before ._.

    I really like it :D ... Thanks for the upload :D

    It's not as generic or mindlessly brutal shit going on as most melodic DM nowadays... I really like that ... music is awesome ... not too heavy and not annoying ... with the right amount of good melody ... it's really awesome :D

    I hope this gets released soon :D I love the solo :D

    Thanks again for the upload :D

  • @91FroSt91 Completely agreed and it's really my pleasure. Their debut album Thousand Swords was released almost 3 months ago, check it out.

  • Hermoso tema, tiene toda la pudrición melancólica que puede tener para todos nosotros que escuchamos un tipo de mierdas como estas aguante Whispered y la puta que los parió.

    P/D: recomendable para fiestitas y cumpleaños. Inviten putas.

  • i can't find this awesome shit anywhere. Somebody fucking help i can't breath

  • samurai metal?...i just came...

  • samurai metal? this is new to me, must keep listening and see where it leads to. music has some pretty good grip on me and what happens in my head.

  • best samurai metal ever

  • I am very happy to see a new thing that is so good

    I was like HOLY SHIT when i heard them first time

  • The banner on their site is hilarious, that dude with the flag wins the "biggest bad ass to ever exist" award.

  • Fuck, I fucking love Samurai and Metal. Why have I not found this sooner?

    *Slices stomach*

  • Comment removed

  • ive always wanted samurai metal! since years!

    already thought about making such a band myself (problem: i cant sing / play an instrument...)

    but here it is... finally! yeah

  • I love Finland.

  • melodies

  • Holy shit, samuri and metal...thats the best fuckin thing ive ever herd! Love it!

  • @ultrablue25 CHeck out Carach Angrens Album Death Came Through a Phantom Ship...

    Pirates + Symphonic Black Metal, as epic as this, amazing riffs like this

  • Onko tää siis se lempääläläinen bändi? Kuulin tästä kitaristin pikkusiskolta joka kehu koko bändin maasta taivaaseen, ja kyllähän tätä sietääkin kehua!

  • What the!!?... I had ideas of mixing samurai culture with heavy metal, but these guys beat me to it. I should have discovered these guys long ago!

  • @groovybassline ninja metal is still up for grabs :P

  • Onmyouza pretty much have that bagged too...

  • whens this album come out?

  • @nothingness95 10.02.

  • i love it

  • very very nice song i like this band

    5/5

  • man i wish had this tune for my Ipod HURRY UP AND RELEASE ALBUM :)

  • @superhookah I don't know if I should give you a thumbs down for Ipod or thumbs up for liking this. >:D

  • And you can't call Scar Symmetry that because... ?

    Anyway, I was looking at the tracklist of the upcoming album, and they've put this one right in the middle, with much faster & more energetic tracks in the start and at the ending. I think it may be risky, but who knows, maybe it'll work. Besides, the last song on the album ('Blade in the Snow') is still to be heard. We shall see.

  • There's also Fear Never Within that we haven't heard yet. I have faith that the whole album is going to a complete masterpiece.

  • Melodic Samurai Death metal? Surely it's melodic death metal that uses a samurai theme? Otherwise Scar Symmetry would be melodic sci-fi death metal. Well whatever... it's good. And thus in my favourites... the intro does capture the oriental sound very well

  • the "samurai" part of their genre comes from the fact that their lyrics are about bushido and they use traditional japanese instruments

  • @allthesametakemeaway I get that. What I'm saying is why does that make it a genre? It's just a form of folk metal

  • well, most of the offshoots of folk metal like pirate metal and viking metal dont really have unique instruments, its usually just the lyrics that characterize their sub-genre

    i dunno if i agree with calling these guys samurai metal, but theyre about as "samurai metal" as alot of viking metal bands are "viking-like"

  • I know. But in the same sense I disagree they should be viking or pirate metal, just because of lyrical content since the genre remains the same

  • 5/5 for the violin intro

  • Whispered new video, new song and album release date on new website!! coool

  • I'm personally not a fan of the vocals here but the rest of the song is almost perfect.

  • I play sometimes with the guitarist of this band ;D

  • its a great epic song

  • cant wait 4 album ^^

  • Finland!!! How do they manage to churn out so many kickass metal bands...

    \m/

  • Because Finland kicks ass! \m/

    I'm a finn btw. :D

  • because the weather is crap.

  • its only because were drunk all the time and when drunk u get great ideas drink more think less!

  • That is cool!

    Nice music!

  • Wow i never had listen to this band, is awesome is like ensiferum played by samurays! exelent

  • @mancho747heavy Samurays? Is that what space samurai shoot?

  • my bad

  • HAH! i get it

  • News & updates : 2.11.2009 Album is 100% ready! Our debut album is now ready and being printed! \,,/ Cover-art came up maybe even too epic! Release date? Unfortunately we don't have that yet. Straight from Whispered's site. We're hooking up some intresting opportunities so once again there's a delay. Yes it's frustrating, but we don't want to release this oni without someones careful plan to spread its terror upon the lands! Anyway new webpage, album info and stuff coming soon enough!
  • yea dude great band i love this song cant wait till i can get it on my ipod

  • very good music , maybe a band with a very big future! i dont care about names or genres because it doesnt matter. the only thing everyone should care about is, is it good music or bad music. i think it is good music.

    and for all the genre freaks: just call it Metal ok?

  • I love this group

  • Enough of the genres now. Let's just focus on the music, ok? The debut album has been mastered for a while now, waiting to know the release date, and to see the music video!

  • uuh, some deaf people talk about metal genres hahahaha, very funny kids...grow older and be more open minded and you will lern why different genre names exist
