  • Melodia épica inspiradora! Eles são fantásticos! Queria muito que eles fizessem uma tour pelo Brasil para que as pessoas pudessem desfrutar de suas melodias lindas. Excelente!

    Melody inspiring! They are fantastic! I really wanted them to do a tour of Brazil so that people could enjoy their beautiful melodies. Excellent!

  • hmmm! great music, sorry mate, a choir boy for a lead singer just isnt good enough! this band needs a lead singer with allot more power in his voice.

  • @m6nster1965 You should just shut your mouth right now. Before someone more vulgar and insulting than I am tells you you are wrong. Mathias Blad is the best singer of all time.

  • I know about 90% of all of falconers songs by heart :D

  • Mmm I go chills on the beginning guitar harmony ^_^

  • This is just as good as it get's! I feel proud to be swedish when I hear bands like Falconer! Hail to all metal brethren!\m/

  • One of my favorite bands in the world, I always feel that I'm in a fantasy world when I hear these guys. Awsome! And I can't wait for the new album! Just 3 more days!!

  • Blad not moving kind of almost makes him seem more epic. I don't know how that is even possible. He's got that Jonas Renkse thing going on where if he was bounding all over the stage, it'd be weird. His voice is so smooth and a little sad.

  • I fukn love this video

  • gods damn, I wish I could sing like that. its like they aren't trying to sound epic, and doing it anyway.

  • I would have liked to see the executioner kill the guards and save the criminal.

  • @godofplunder Played to much Assasin Creed? :)

  • @mortenbakke Never thought of that, but yeah same concept. The executioner shoud have fought back.

  • Falconer is a very special band.

  • I see 15 people currently have their heads shoved up their asses and do not appreciate true musicianship.

  • 1:17 - He must be repping Swedish Pantene!

  • I thought Josh Groban was singing at first! LOL! Falconer 4 Life <3!

  • Awesome ending. wished they included that in the album recording

  • nice vocal shredding at the end haha

  • the best band of world. saludos desde españa!

  • 3:40 they even had chavs in those days?

  • such a beautiful voice. what would be epic would be to hear Mathias Blad and Roy Khan to do a song together.

  • The extended ending should have been on the album version. It is so awesome.

  • you wanna shock go to taliban better do COLD TURKEY YOU LAST 5 MIN you cry like a baby softies wanna big guys shit on you and your noise

  • @WieteEdz Sorry for the long reply time, but... What does this sentence mean?

  • @Collin8843 Its about the video hangmen and other evil y saw this with my own eyes in afgqanistan took 20 min til he died REAL take some torture REAL y just get pissed off seeing things like that even for FUN ????>?>??????????????? get me

  • @WieteEdz Yeah, I get what your saying, but the song is ABOUT an executioner who is supposed to hang people. What would you rather watch for this? Ponies and butterflies?

  • @Collin8843 a good fuck y prefere

  • @WieteEdz I'm not entirely sure what you mean, but judging by your grammatical status, I'd assume your no older than 10. Well played, my fair gent. Good day

  • @Collin8843 been a plesuree

  • @WieteEdz y speak the language of MUSIC YOU DONT

  • @Collin8843 "your no older than 10." I love irony.

  • @Procrastinatron3000 Pardon, but what do you mean by that? If you are insinuating the fact that I myself are 10, then you are sorely mistaken

  • @Collin8843 Actually, I was pointing out the irony in mistaking possessive "your" for "you're" after criticizing that other poster on his 'grammatical status.'

  • @Procrastinatron3000 ...That was a hidden pun? *I hope he believes that >.>*

  • @Collin8843 DNT wanna hurst nobodys feelings but you totakly misunderstand me y just cant stand violence am high sensitive ADHD got angry exuse me when y hurt your feelings why argue bout spelling my friend am sorry respect you high fife lol smile not hang lol get me now my friend sicerle WEdRokx fuckzzz lol

  • @WieteEdz Ok now 'friend'... Your statements are hardly legible, and I can only assume you are under the influence of some kind of altering substance. Though I don't agree with that, I'll let you continue on your delusional path of contradictions and half-baked sentences. Good night to you, my dear sir.

  • why on earth is there not MILLIONZ of views on this D: newer styles of metal are amazing but why is everyone cutting this out =(

  • @TheTeenrocker who cares who many that listen to this? Its just like Dragonforce, at once it started to get popular because of the Guitar Hero, they stoped making music and started just to make guitar preformance, like insane solo and stuff. And when you see people who listen to Britney spears, beever guy and your favorit band, you start losing the interest.

  • I wish they would come on US soil....

  • They're like Swedens Blind Guardian ffs!

  • @UlfLundell swedens elvenking.

  • Love the band, but the singer needs to deliver more of a performance. He has a great voice, but he hardly moves for the video. Even live he is sorta stiff, but all in all he has a good voice. Probably needs to ocus on keeping it that way instead of moving around alot. Who knows? Good song.

  • @THS1989 Not about the performance, when your listening to music you listen for the epic sounds of falconer :D

  • almost no one knows falconer... i don't understand why, they're awsome!

  • 1st time i heard this band but so far so fucking good!

  • How the hell have I never heard of this group? Loving this band so far! Reminds me of Kamelot.

  • This is one of the best songs i know of . . . and brain House looks like Mathias. haha

  • is it just me or Mathias looks like Dr. house in this video XD

  • It bothers me alot that Falconer is unknown to many people in the metalcommunity. This is perfection.

  • @Evulify I know about them! So do you, 2 less to inform!

  • @ElxUltimoXcazador sip es él

  • Comment removed

  • maldita voz tan ahhhhhh quiero cantar asi!!! falconer vengan a venezuela jodaaa!!!

  • nomnom

  • The end makes it awesome. Just the tableaux of the would-be executioner being hung fits it all together. And mathias' voice doesn't hurt either ;)

  • Mathias Blad I love you <3

  • that vocal solo at the end gives me chills...I wish they'd put it on the album version

  • how does he keep their hair so straight. and that sheen! my god.

  • @ArkaneOmega i know right? amazing!

  • Strangely enough, it's been only after listening to Falconer for the first time that I realized how the singer's voice alone is often crucial for assessing whether a band is great or simply average.

  • Got to these guys via recommendation.

    Must say, this song is a GREAT first impression

  • пёздо!!!!

  • this song rocks!

  • Watch it in HD instead.

  • Falconer!!! Best group ever!!!

  • lol mathias always just stands there......

  • up Falconers from Russia!!

  • up Russias from the USA :)

  • a great track from an amazing group of musicians! Hail

  • Nice vid, Hail to Blad and the Falconers!! Keep doing some good stuff! and please come to Colombia!!

  • Falconer rulez !!! xD from Brazil

  • this song is fucking awesome!!

  • i agree with you bro

  • the bas in the band is my best friends DAD!

  • great band!

  • Awesome voice in the end of song

  • Falconer is one of the best bands in the world!!! Greetings from Serbia!!!

  • the ending is special because it's not on the album. if it was on it, that part would only be old news to falconer fans... a beautiful song by an amazing band.

  • Could someone rip the song of this video 'cause the ending part is badass, I don't get why they just didn't add that part on the song in the first place. His voice is amazing.

  • Ripping from youtube is'nt a science anymore. Just google "youtube download" or something, and a bunch of tools should show up

  • i have it

  • would you wanna send me it?.lol.

  • yes i just need ur email or whatever

  • 2 words: Media Converter :)

  • just fucking incredible

  • love the end 4:43 so powerful in my opinion

    and is it not stefan who wrights most of there songs?

  • wooooooooooooooooooooooooooot gooooooooooooooooooo Mathias!!!!!!!! best voice eva!!!! (or close too it)

  • absolutely amazing song, band, and Blad is amazing as well.

  • I adore Mathias Blad! It's actually his voice that got me into Falconer, and this genre specifically. Then I discovered that the music they play is equally awesome.

  • No hablen taanta shit.... Me encanta Falconer Mathias es genial que linda voz!!! =) me encantan todos sus trabajos hasta el que hicieron con el otro vocal (aunque Mathias es n veces mejor), definitivamente la mejor Falconer!! Espero que muy pronto visiten mi país Colombia!

  • See?

  • He wasn't supposed to join the band at first, he sang on the first album because the guys thought he had a great voice and they wanted him to sing on it. Maybe he wasn't a metal fan but he enjoyed their music and decided to join the band.

  • No he actually isn't a fan of rock/metal. Read their website for the proof. Blad is a stage singer normally.

  • I wonder if Mathias Blad is a metal fan... He doesn't really looks into it live (atleast in the videos on here).

  • Comment removed

  • I wasn't implying that a metal fan had to rock around like an idiot or have long hair or whatever... I'm a huge metal fan and I don't look like one at all. It's just that the guy is an actor and Falconer is the only metal band he's been involved with. Besides, he didn't become a member of the band straight away, he just agreed to record the vocals on some songs and he had no idea if the band would ever play live. He could be a metal fan, I just think there's a possibility that he isn't.

  • He doesn't need to look like a metal fan, he is. Why else would he sing for Falconer? And he does it perfect!

  • I don't know if he is or not, but I'm going to assume he is. You have no right to expect him to put on an act for your benefit. If he doesn't headbang, so fucking what? I'm a very reserved person myself and I'd spit on anyone who had the nerve to tell me I'm not into it because I don't conform to the metalhead's image.

  • God... Did you even read my second comment? I don't give a fuck about the fact that he doesn't headbang, I just think there's a possibility that he isn't a metal fan or atleast that he wasn't one until he became a member of the band. THAT'S FUCKING IT. I'm not implying that there's a possibility that he doesn't like the music that Falconer does, I know that he likes it, but it doesn't mean that he's a metal fan.

  • Hi everyone go loads of footage from the Live gig in London on friday check my profile and when I have finished I will set it as a playlist and put the link on falconers forum. Enjoy

  • god damn brilliant stuff! Really enjoy their metal, but only with Mathias...

    This new album is my favorite

  • these guys are amazing...

  • when are going to brazil ..... i loved this guys

  • I'm going to have the guitarist jimmy hedlund as bass teacher!!

  • I will be seeing Falconer on July 17th in Londan :-)

    Cant wait

  • Record as hell then!! :) Can´t be there!

  • I will be recording on my N95 *gb as the sound recording with the video is far better then with my digi camera. I will try and be close to the front to avoid using digital zoom

  • I LOVE THESE GUYS!!! Matthias is sooo amazing!

  • is it me or the singer looks like Clint Eastwood?

  • just you

  • Oh shit yes you are right

  • Love the intro, amazing

  • I love these guys---pretty much unlike a lot of the stuff out there and they can actually play/sing/perform. I hope they keep making music and keep getting some recognition because not enough people are listening to them.

  • 4.44 ftw!

  • I hate it when you post too many comments and get that "Copy the letters" thing. I always get it wrong like 5 times and then post 3 comments and repeat! It's pissing me off! Anyways, I'm glad Falconer finally got a good recording studio to do their music. Their last one sounded bland. They should redo some of their old stuff to make it sound better, even though it still kicked ass!!

  • äger som fan eller hur file!!!!!!!!

  • Damn, I was the 40.001th to open this vid:D YEAH:D

  • Cool, I didn't knew this band - excellent stuff!

  • DUDE! i Came at 1:37 holy fuck that was the badest ass guitar sound ever!

  • The smal vocal solo at the end should be on their album =P oh well, tis still awsome even with out it XD

  • that's what I'm saying, my favorite part of the song.

  • wow this song kicks ass holy shit

  • the vocal solo sounds like Boiling Led =) but slow :P

  • epic song, i liked the video how it was black and white during the execution and had a bluish tint when they showed the band playing in the blacksmith's shed. They are an awsome band, one of the best.

  • Awesome as fuck!

  • that vocal solo at the end is awesome, and the style is straight out of the late medieval period!!!

  • Amazing. Simply epic.

  • just wish the last bit was on the Album.... its beautiful

  • btw i love the ending...

  • Blad's got one of the best voices in metal I've ever fucking heard. Not to mention the musical arrangement and composition in general is godly. Adding Blad's vocals just make it THAT much better.

  • fan vad kul att ha han som lärare XD

  • swedish: Falconer är fan bäst!:D Hedlund en av gitarristerna är min gitarr lärare;)

    english:Falconer fucking rocks!:D Hedlund one of the guitarists is my guitar techer;)

  • yea well soon im gunna be learning from Oliver Herbert one of the top 10 guitarist to ever live.

  • O__O and to think these guys arent better known yet in the folk metal scene somebody say something.

  • I'd say their second best song, after the Clarion Call.

  • ive got to agree there

  • This song is very good.

    But my favorite songs are:

    Catch the shadow

    Dreams and pyres

    Mindtraveler

    Man of the hour

    Long gone by

    Haha can almost say all!

  • i say 3rd best behind Northwind, then Clarion Call, Then This

  • i got chills at the end god his voice is incredible! iLOVE IT!

  • woderfull voice, Awsome musik :D love much<3

  • it sound mystic

  • I like Falconer have all their CDs at home including this one... They have a awesome singer and sound

  • whats really unfortunate is that i dont think i know one person who has ever heard this band other than me. I been preaching like crazy to everyone tho.

  • Ooh I like the executioner's hood.

  • I fucking love this band

    Power metal forever

  • Great video by the way, I watched it more carefully and finally noticed the former executioner hanging at the end.

  • I saw that two.. I feel bad for him.

    Great video and very good song!

  • 2:22 to 2:30 is such a sick little bridge

  • Amazing song and great video! I loved the additions like the intro and the traditional Swedish chant at the end, and the splicing. But what did the video mean? Was the executioner the next one to be executed? Was he already on death row so they just used him to execute another guy to be executed, then got rid of him the same way?

  • I'm nort sure how they picked the executioners back then, but perhaps it was a choice he had to make: be killed, or do the killing, and he refused to go through with the system; he wouldn't contribute to the vulgar entertainment that was forced upon the society, and he paid the price for being a saint.

  • I think I get what you mean. I just noticed that it isn't the "executioner" who gets dragged in at the beginning who actually does the killing; someone else grabs the axe out of his hands and does the deed instead. I guess that makes him kind of obsolete? On the band's myspace it says the song is about a man who is sentenced to death but manages to live on by being an executioner. I guess in that sense the video is doubly ironic because the executioner doesn't do the killing!

  • Well, back in the day (1200-1400's, somewhere), in some parts of Europe, the hangmen/executioners were actually often criminals who got to choose between being executed themselves or kill as a profession. Kill or be killed, so to speak.

    In this case we have a guy who is forced to do it, and at the last moment he refuses. Therefor, he himself gets executed.

    And yes. There is some irony in it. The video producers are quite fond of these kinds of twists...

  • Wow, thanks a lot! By the way, who's the hefty guy in the crowd with long blonde hair that is seen shouting with his fist in the air all the time in the video? The camera focuses on him a lot, is it some cameo that I didn't recognize, or is it just part of the vid? He seemed more eager than all the others to see blood.

  • yeah. I have seen them on Wacken 2007. But I'm not listening to metal that much anymore. Falconer stayed on my playlist.

  • Damn lead guitar is so beast. Wow.

  • jimmy hedlund lead guittarist is a friend of mine^^ he's a part-time teacher at a local school some of my friends have gotten personel guitar lessons from him hes an awesome guy small guy but hes like a big kid you always have fun with him^^

    falconer on of my fav bands! both instrumental and vocals are awesome :D metal forever

  • jimmy hedlund is going to be my new guitar teacher on thursday!!!

  • great! amazing video and an amazing song!

  • literally one of my fave bands. keep getting better and better

  • wow pretty brutal ending :P

    its a shame these bands dont have

    bigger budgets for their music vidz thou.

  • true but they make up for it with their amazing music too bad they arent more well known theyre amazing but none of my friends or neone i know has heard of them sadly

  • That's why we spread the message. Maybe I can get a concert from them here in the states if I spread it enough...

  • awesome

  • Such good lead guitar and drums.

  • Must agree. Mathias Blad got an amazing voice!

  • Check out Hard steel - I count to 666

    haha

  • grandissimi

  • This band does not have the success they diserve. And Mathias is one the best singer I've ever heard (he could be the "Josh Groban" of the hevy metal world:))

  • These guys will never get enough credit. They are probably one of THE best power metal bands out there, bar-none. They bring something new to the table in every respect (mainly soothing, beautiful vocals). Can't give them enough credit. Awesome video as well :)

  • Great!! You did it Falconer! After waiting 7 years we at last see an epic + quality video!

  • This video is just fucking awesome!!

    Please, upload more Falconer!!

  • The Problem is: There are only 2 Falconer Videos. This and "Cross Emotinal Skies". And "Cross..." Video is very bad. And also Mathias Blad (the Singer) was out of the band when the Video was made.

  • Can anybody tell me, from 0:00 to 0:35, was it written by Falconer or is it sampled from something else?
