This song sounds nostalgic to me. I'm sure I heard this some years ago, even before I could speak... excellent song! This is the really symphonic and neoclassical black metal.

the lack of vocals in this song makes it better. its like a instrumental piece then a hard piece with vocals and it just makes it that much more instense
My question is this. How the hell did I not allow this band's music to become the eternal soundtrack to my entire life here in hellish earth....Sad for me!!! BUT NOW IT IS AND LIFE IS GREAT!!!
I love how everybody in this band (at any period in their career, whether black metal or avant-garde) is so fucking talented at the instruments they play, yet no one "shows off" the talent in an individualistic fashion... instead they come together as a band and put their efforts torwards making a perfect final product. That, ladies and gentlemen in other bands, is how it's done. Awesome! One of my all time favorite bands, I don't even remember how I found them, but I'm eternally grateful I did.
two words.....Arcturus is one of the best muthafucking bands out there. one of the most underrated and underappreciated...ok so that was more than two words..but whatever
It's great that Arcturus finally disbanded so they did not have time to sold out to labels like Nuclear Blast who magically turns every band into shit
@NocturnaTagris Symphonic black metal is a style of black metal that uses symphonic and orchestral elements. This may include the usage of melodic instruments found in the sections of a symphony orchestra (string instruments, brass instruments, woodwinds and keys). However, much of the characteristics of "traditional" black metal are retained, such as shrieked vocals, fast tempos and high-pitched electric guitars often played with tremolo picking....!!!
Hey, I love (old) Nightwish AND Arcturus. The people you are talking about are exactly the same as black metal elitists who look down on all other genres of metal
Arcturus is also the name of a star. It makes sense. Their odd live show and subject matter in addition to their sound definitely makes it a good fit.
I recommend any Arcturus for autumn nights with marijuana. Goes well in a mix with Ulver and Opeth. Enjoy.
@hellishfox I know,But you dont understand what I said,I said,That I hope Vortex comes back to arcturus,Because they broke up,im saying I hope Arcturus reunites..And yes I know its him -_- you goose
OMFG.......Arcturus....Its so black metal,I heard vortex is coming back,I HOPE so,And please come back to borgir :) with no vortex in Borgir..There is no borgir :(
@bangaboober Sad how people give you thumbs down for having a differing opinion. I mean, it's good, but just because you're not saying it's the best thing on earth you get deducted lol... There's a lot of metal out there people, just because one song isn't a cause for an emotional epiphany doesn't mean they're wrong...
I try to stay away from voiceing my opinion about music. I try not to fall in the immature people who compare bands and say how much the song sucked.. but yeah I agree with you. Music affects everyone differently...
cada vez que pasaba por el cementerio, se me helaba la sangre cuando al mismo tiempo y en la noche escuchaba este malefico tema, es simplemente salvaje black metal
Impresionante, que potencia !!!! me tiro al suelo y me revuelco como pinche tlacuache rabioso, esta rola me parte el ocico lol !!!!!!!!! Ese Garm debio tomarse un buen alcohol antes de rifarse esta piezita, de mis favoritas de toda la vida!!!! AMO ESAS LIRAS!!!!!!!!!!!
Any video can be played in "High Quality" in the same manner. High Quality basically spreads out the volume into stereo format and raises the volume, as well as increase overall sound. In this case, better sound reveals lower sounding instruments that YouTube fucks over; add "&fmt=18" and this is how the song was intended to be heard.
