  • Both versions are completely different, even thought its the same song. I like both versions in their way.

  • I heard about this song from HSB, but I like this version way better.

  • The album art reminds me of the Nether from Minecraft...

  • @Dervanon I used to agree with you on that point, but it's really grown on me with repeated listens. (At first I liked it, now I utterly adore it, as everything else in EoS's discog.) I really appreciate the contrast the subdued vocals provide in relation to the pounding guitars.

  • Heaven Shall Burn did better

    JUST MY OPINION! 

  • @JokerFarts of course it sounds better, 15 years later, the technique is better but the great reward owns edge of sanity since they wrote this awesome song.

  • awesome song, but if the singer put a little more power behind it it would be even greater.

  • @Dervanon

    well then listen to "heaven shall burn"s version of this song

    it kicks ass!

  • @bohicetea1 No.

  • @Dervanon This is the way it's supposed to be, else they would have done it differently.

  • in flames - world of promises :) very similar intro

  • @gblured

    heaven shall burn - black tears

    nearly the same intro...

    only in drop c

  • @Oeserich1996 umm Oeserich1996.... Edge of Sanity came out with this first (1994), HSB's is only a cover. just sayin in case you didnt know

  • @andreosterlindh

    i know that

  • @Oeserich1996 just making sure dude

  • @andreosterlindh

    jeah i understand

    no problem :)

  • Hmm, thats my first time i hear that^^... i think the Cover is better cause its mure powerfull and aggressive, its more how the song is... its just my oppinion, but in the whole i always prefere the more powerfull songs^^, but this one isnt bad at all

  • @MannIchFindKeinName This is how the song is supposed to be.

  • I bet there are loads of kids who thinks that Heaven Shall Burn made this song :D

    ignorant fucktards!

  • This song came the year i was born awezome :D

  • Am I the only one who thinks that both versions are awesome? The original sounds more melancholic and melodic to me, while the cover is more powerful, aggressive and crisp. It depends on my mood which version I prefer.

  • The quality is so poor :S

  • @InTheHallsOfAwaiting '94 dude :)

  • Come on noww!!This is better than Heaven Shall Burn cover..Not that the cover is bad but this is better

  • Oh depressing. If you type in 'black tears' the first suggested option is HSB's version. Get this back where it belongs!

  • Quit your yapping about other bands making a better version of it. EoS has the original and it remains awesome. HSB and EToS both made great covers of it and I had the pleasure of enjoying HSB's version live at WOA. Though I'll say if you have no clue who EToS are and say there is no better band than HSB, then I'm afraid you cannot call yourself a true metalhead...

  • @Killfist shut the fuck up about that "true metalhead" shit. anyone whos favorite genre is metal is a metalhead, period.

  • @thychaos No thank you. I've decided not to shut up. At least take the time to make up a better reply the next time you decide to reply to someone else's comment.

  • @Killfist i dont need to make it better. thats it. simply shut the fuck up, youre a moron. simple enough for you?

  • @thychaos I disagree. Now take a hike, internet-tough guy.

  • @Killfist lol fuckin retard, this isnt being an "internet tough guy." i just told you youre stupid. apparently you cant tell the difference between an insult and "tough guy" talk. stupid child.

  • @thychaos You lack basic grammar skills, are raging over a Youtube comment and yet I'm the retard? You must be a stand-up comedian.

  • @Killfist actually thats called punctuation and capitalization errors, dumbfuck. and theyre not even errors. if i wanted to write like i was writing something important i would, but im just talking shit to some retard on the internet who thinks hes smart because he types properly. lol youre still a stupid child.

  • @thychaos All belongs to grammar. You're not talking shit to a retard, you're talking shit to someone that's obviously more mature and smarter than you. Perhaps you should look a bit closer. And the fact that you're not using proper punctuation and so forth only adds to the case that you're "the retard" on here. I'm not a child, thank you very much. I'm an adult. You on the other hand, I very much doubt. Now go outside and enjoy the sunlight. Some people have had enough of this useless rant.

  • @Killfist nah, im talking shit to a retard. now shut up, child.

  • @thychaos What's wrong, did mommy not cuddle you to sleep last night? :)

  • @Killfist your faggotry exposes itself with every post you make.

  • I'm a fan of HSB, and they made a GREAT cover of it, they addapted it to their own style!!

    ...but i have to admit this version is way better...

  • Some old school here.^.^ 

  • wasn scheiß

    

  • I really wish Dan Swano would re record this.... If you heard his recover of Losing Myself I'm sure you'd agree.

  • this one is way better than HSB this guy can actually sing. there are way too many screaming bands out there and they all sound the same.

  • @reather329 haha you really need to shut up about too many screaming bands, and they defninetly dont sound the same lol. most of these ''screaming bands'' are really talentfull. such songs they play isnt something you just do or play and yea i know these guys did it first but that wont say that all screaming bands are the same cause of the scream o.O there are so many screams that are different of the others. you need to get out of your bubble m8.

  • @reather329 No Band is better than HSB !

  • @reather329 lol screaming bands? go get educated about music you dumb fuck.

  • why are fights on every metal video I see on youtube? people like different things but that doesn't matter for comments. If you like one version of a song better than another just don't watch the other version or shut up and listen to the song and enjoy.

  • I found this band because of Swano being in Bloodbath and discovering he's in a couple other bands led me here.

  • ohhh will you just stop....lets do it like this if there wasn't Edge of Sanity there wouldn't even be HSB.....and in my opinion....whoever listens to HSB is probably poser and this that As i lay Dying,Bullet for my Valentine and Korn are the best metal bands....so STFU and listen to EDGE OF SANITY!!!!!!!

  • @danijelciuss Lol BfmV best metal band? Can't agree with you on that. But still it's your opinion.:P

  • @HAFC1994thebest no man read again...i meant "whoever listens to HSB is probably a poser and THINKS ( I wrote "this") that AS i Lay...." i made a spelling mistake...I HATE THOSE BANDS...Best metal band is KREATOR...for me :)))

  • Ehh.. I definitely like HSB's cover better.. The vocals on this one just bore me.. That, and the guitar isn't nearly as beefy... Heaven Shall burn is just more my taste.

  • @matwhited687 never,never can a cover be better than original...

  • @danijelciuss Not at all true.. but like I said, I like HSB's cover better.. No sense arguing with that..

  • wtf. they are completly different... i found this song when i read that hsb covered the song and in MY opinion hsb's is better but its because of my music taste, everyone has another one so let the one like that version and the others the other version. wheres the problem?!

  • I can't make up my mind which is better, HSB cover or EoS original. Thumb up for HSB, or down for EoS. (Thumb up for HSB doesn't mean I prefer them)

  • No question: This is the one and only original...I didnt know "Heaven Shall Burn" until the covered this amazing CULT song...so...

  • the cover of HEAVEN SHALL BURN is better

  • @DennisxD1000 Fag.

  • Someone should cover this with clean vocals that are sung one octave above the original notes, i can barely understand what Swano is saying because of his low register vocals.

  • I'll take this version over H.S.B.'s version. H.S.B.'s version's good, but the shouting vocals don't fit. Swano nailed it on this song, which came out in 1994 when some of the more diverse Death Metal bands were starting to get the attention of major labels. It would've been nice to see Edge Of Sanity get some wide recognition through a good label. Too bad the record labels here in America don't value great musicianship, and are now going broke because lame bullshit Pop music doesn't sell.

  • EoS's instrumentals+HSB's vocals=best version. But srsly, all the versions are good.

  • 4 biber fans

  • i got this album when it first came out but was never really struck on them, this is a brilliant song and reminds me a little bit of Anathema but the rest of the album was a bit too inconsistent for my liking.

  • 25.000 klicks for this cool original - 1.500.000 klicks for the coverversion of a trend-band ... very sad !

  • heaven shall burn version is the best ;) the "normal" singing sounds strange with this melodie ;) the shout version is the best^^

  • @Homer1680 GTFO n00b bitch.

  • HSB did this song justice.

  • You people are frakkin' narrow-minded. All of the three versions are awesome, because they show the song in different light. Cut the 'This band > That band' shit already. Music is about talent. Music is about feelings. You can't say 'My feelings > Your feelings'. It's just not right. And all of the bands mentioned in the last few comments are giving their hearts out in what they do.

  • Like the instrumentals in this one best, but I think the HSB cover has the best vocals of any of the versions.

  • damn people. if you actually like metal, you would have this straight. Edge of Sanity > Eternal Tears of Sorrow >>>>>>>>>> Heaven Shall Burn. Same thing applies to this: Nevermore > Firewind >>>>>>>>>> All That Remains.

  • @gunstar9 100000000% agreed. You couldnt have put it in a better way. Heaven did a fucking shit cover, so gay... Eternal did a good job, I liked it, but this version still remains the best.

  • @gunstar9 No, deal with the fact that people have different opinions, what you think is not fact.

  • This is a good song, but honestly the HSB version is far better. The production values on it are much better, and on that version you can actually hear the vocals properly.

    Also I thought this band was meant to be death metal???

  • HSB makes this song sound like fucking In Flames' new shit

  • @sugessad HSB makes this song sound fucking great!

  • dont want to piss anybody off but i like the heaven shall burn version better

  • when was this song put out

  • both the EoS version AND the HSB version kick ass...

    ... But I am wondering where all the EToS trolls are xD... there versions pretty good too...

  • @BoffSpeilBeard hsb rules so hard^^ its got so much power in the song....something new in black tears xD

  • I think this version and Heaven Shall Burn's versions are both great. One of the best covers i've ever heard. I personally prefer HSB's version, but thats just me.

  • @EpsilonX Eternal Tears of Sorrow Cover the best cover ever. Sorry

  • @idomtalan ok. idk that song.

  • fucking love the main riff! cool shred!

  • Who wants to hear about bloody Heaven Shall Burn while listening to Edge of fucking Sanity!? Am I right?

  • honestly, i think hsb fucks this song up. Dan's vocals are much better, and how does anyone dare to remove the solo at the end of the song

  • I'm seriously addicted to this song

  • i think the original und the hsb cover version sound both f*ckin amzing.

  • I thought Edge of Sanity were a death metal band.....this sounds like HIM.

  • @EpsilonX or rather, HIM sounds like this.

  • most of you say hsb is better

    i like both

    if there was no EOS - black tears

    then ther would be no HSB version :)

    so stop trollin' and tell that shit your grandma

  • Well in this song the voice is weaker BUT the guitars are way better :D!

    HSB just uses the regular riff as ending but this solo is epic :x

    btw-both are great bands

  • Liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiike­ :D :D

  • Even when this is the Orginal is the Version from HSB is Way Better. The Version from EoS so Powerless. The HSB Version Kicks Asses and that in Millions.

  • @TheScholzii that is because you're a victim that values production over actual musical talent

  • @JimKnopf15 No I Don't Like this BEacuse of. For Example the Voice. It's to Soft Sometimes i don't even Here him Singing. The Voice of the HSB Singer is POwerful an you Understand it.

  • @TheScholzii If Dan intended for this song to have powerful vocals, he would have used growls instead. Powerful vocals aren't the only style out there.

  • @TheScholzii Not to mention Dan would growl it properly.  Fuck metalcore

  • this is the original retards!

    and this poor metalcore inspiration less version of haven shall burn is a fuckin disgrace.a fuckin disgrace!

  • Okay for me the version of Heaven Shall Burn sounds much better

  • daaamned original is much better

    the voice in this song is to low, or the music to hard.

    but the mix is so bad.

    and it sounds weird : a singer who sings so soft with ''metal'' music.

    ok, it can be nice, sometimes but in this case i don't think it sounds verry good, but that's just my opinion.

  • @righteouskillmick

    oh sorry, i see in the reactions below me this one IS the original, i mean the HSB cover.

  • The Original.

    :)

  • yawning... Heaven Shall Burn's Version is one of my favourite songs ever, but this is just... boring. Hsb ftw!!!

  • the hsb version is much better :D

  • @locust94 I don´t think so. EoS brings many more feelings in their music. Hsb sucks!

  • @garglgurg they dont bring any good feel at all, this sounds like a shitty attempt of the hsb version, hsb made this song good

  • @garglgurg feelings? he talks the lyrics...thats kinda boring...

  • @garglgurg just look the new video Combat frm HsB this song and video brings much more than this song

  • @locust94 LMAO.

  • this reminds me of a mix of him and HSB, even though this isnt original song,

    werid huh?

  • @joebo511 Edge of Sanity did the original. Eternal Tears Of Sorrow and Heaven Shall Burn did a Cover of it. All 3 Songs are great.

  • @XNurgaX i know cheers

    i worded that comment wrong "/

    was a bit stoned :)

  • @joebo511 No problem. ;)

  • The cover by HSB is great, but the original is even more.. Like it is very often with covering songs... you can hardly beat the original

  • this dude isn't even fucking singing wtf? He's fucking talking xD

    What is this shit? Honestly EToS fucking owned this song, and then HSB did good too. xD the vocals on this are too fucking funny xDDDDD

  • With all due respect to Heaven Shall Burn, which is a truely brilliant band, I prefer Edge of Sanity. Making a good 4 min long song isnt as easy as it sounds, but making a 40 min long, wicked masterpiece is way more than challenging and tricky!

  • this song should be right behind metallica and way ahead of heaven shall burn

  • HSB's cover is alright, but Swano's vocals are waaay better! Also, everytime I hear that solo coming in I bang my head while playing airguitar!

  • both the covers and the original are good,none of them better than the other,they are just amazing!!!

  • The Heaven Shall Burn cover is more heavy and i like it more than this original

  • It's more energetic and has better production, but there's no beating the original Swano version :P

  • @xRetzbachx i agrre with you , this vocals are ok but to broing in my opinion

  • I discovered this band from the EToS cover, and I think I like this band a lot better than EToS.

  • Yea man, listen to everything by them. This album especially. Classic.

  • @forcedtodie

    Who are EToS?

  • @bulletformykornknot Eternal Tears of Sorrow.

  • HSB cover has a better instrumental,but i love the original version vocals,is so deep and powerful,but the guitars on the intro sound like crap

  • Just to let you guys know, Eternal Tears of Sorrow also did a cover of this song on their 2003 album "Chaotic Beauty". It's better than HSB's cover imo. At least they didn't skip out on the solo lol!

  • the cover from heaven shall burn is much better !!!

  • No.

  • Has anyone else noticed that HSB fans tend to scribble like retards?

  • alltime classic

  • Talk of HSB? On MY Edge of Sanity? Corefags, GTFO.

  • watch the music video for this, and say that again.

  • Great song, BUT, i do have to say i think the vocals should be a bit louder

  • Begone, kid.

  • idiot

    HSB covered from Edge of Sanity

    Though HSB just fucking rules this song :)

    love ´em

  • cover?????

    this is the unmatched original by EoS

  • Actually, this is the original.

  • Heaven Shall Burn and Edge of Sanity are very different bands, dude. Does Heaven Shall Burn write 40 minute concept albums? So they could kick Edge of Sanity's ass at something Edge of Sanity doesn't even do, or show an interest in doing....what does that prove? All it proves is they are two different types of bands, and that you judge one by the other's standards.

  • @Stanran

    My god, what an stupid inmature and ignorant we have here, You deserve to be killed.

  • @Stanran There's something about the original that sticks with me more. Like, even when Faith No More covered Sabbath's War Pigs, it wasn't the same, even though they were a great band. They had better production techniques and all that...

  • @Stanran you are comparing two very different bands and obviusly HSB liked them because they done a cover of thier song

  • @Stanran Heaven Shall Burn is a group of fags like you.

  • @Stanran Hater to the left pl0x, BTW the cover isent bad, but this Song was made 20 years ago, you may have 14 years old, thats why you enjoy it that much ;D, wait 10 years and keep listening good Metal (not crap you see on TV :x), well I was in a concert 3 days ago of Heaven shall burn and As I Lay Dying, it was AWESOME... I heard the whole songs from HSB (yes I dint know really the songs, I go becouse of AILD xD), THEN the last song of HSB was this and it was the best, sadly it was a cover XD!

  • One of the best song from that album!

  • heaven shall burn is fuckin crap

    they are not even worth to cover such a great song

  • Heaven shall burn is fuckin shit! EoS are so much better!!!! -.

  • nice
