I went to see an Opeth Concert in October a left a Katatonia fan \m/ ! GREAT BAND!! GREAT COLD DISTANCE RULES, NIGHT IS THE NEW DAY RULES, ALL THE OLDER ALBUMS KICK ASS!!! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK KATATONIA!!!! \M/!!
damn progressive I guess. a mix of depressive and progressive metal. prog metal can be depressive as well so this song is really a progressive metal song! makes me proud of them ^^
Hey everybody! I just released my solo album "Mirror Image" that contains electronic upbeat and ambient songs heavily inspired by Katatonia and the music of Anders Nystrom and Jonas Renkse (including October Tide and Diabolical Masquerade). If you're interested you can check out the songs on my youtube page, and links to my myspace page and places to download the full album are on my youtube channel as well :) .
@servantsthree There is nothing wrong with speeding songs up live. many professional sessionists do the same on purpose. even myself as a drummer gigging regularly. it creates a feeling of excitement and raw energy. its not as if he misses a beat or rushes the band. they are all still on the same place. nothing wrong with it. great band, great song, great performance \m/
@servantsthree Not ready for professional drumming? What are you, a producer? There's nothing wrong with it. So it's a little fast. It's just music, what, if the singer misses a word, is he not ready for 'professional singing?'
@servantsthree Daniel's been a professional drummer at least since he joined the band in 1999. The fact that you don't know that tons of bands speed up songs live tells me you've never been to more than 5-6 concerts.
@servantsthree You can't intelligently defend a statement like that. I'd surely be interested in reading what you think might qualify as such, though ;)
Favorite band next to T00L and Godsmack! The one thing they all have in common, amazing drums, guitars, bass, and vocals. I think they should join forces and form a super band called Toolatoniasmack.
@lugadi Whats wrong with you, don't say stuff like that. Seriously do I deserve death for writing a comment on you tube that you didn't agree with. I bet you five million you wouldn't say that to my face.
@T00Lology100 Oww sorry for hurting your feelings... Didn't mean to!!! But hey! I asked nicely, didn't I?? Don't I deserve something?? and about those 5 millions, you better start saving for I will come and collect my money hahha ok ok, enough of being an ass, I am REALLY sorry, I wasn't in a very good mood that day hehe are we cool?
as a percussionist myself, I think the drummer is fantastic! And I don't hear or see a mess, at all, coming from a professional standpoint. The group is amazing overall, and Jonas' vocals are simply mesmerizing. The guitars can be blazing and the drums slamming, and yet Jonas' voice remains calm and melodic. True art!
Yea the drummer is kinda messy here but still fucking great. He played pretty dead on at the recent show i saw them at, all while the sound techs were trying to make him laugh during a couple songs haha
At 2:21 the drummer is highly regretting playing the song faster than the album version. :( Love Katatonia though, and in the studio their drummer kicks ass, sad to see he's not as good live.
@melodea7h Not only Katatonia, Doom Metal/Rock/whatever you call it at all shows it...you just have to listen to the lyrics, most people don't ever even try to, it's sad.
Too bad Jonas' vocals are not as awesome as in studio records:( Anyway, I am definitely coming for their gig in April, using the fact that they're touring at the moment through whole Europe!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I honestly think they should do more songs like this.
After TGCD they drifted further away from their Doom Metal style, and this song is closer; I think they should try to focus more on faster and more stand alone lead guitar and drums, I know Anders can play much better as seen in Bloodbath.
Jonas vocals are already fucking god, wouldn't hurt to see a scream now and then though if he can still pull it off. XD
Indeed! Jonas is cool and sings okay (he should use less fx and practice silent breathing in my opinion), the drummer is also kinda cool and doesn't play that bad.
The Great Cold Distance (2006) just shows how Katatonia have become only better with time. Their style keeps evolving, expressing sorrow more successfully with every album. Leaders was the first single, I think, but the album included some unforgettable pieces as In The White, Consternation and Rusted. I haven't watched this DVD yet, but I'm sure it must be brutal.
My Twin was the first single and Leaders never was one. I think it was My Twin, Deliberation, and July. Speaking of In The White i would give my left nut to see that played live. Check out the remixes of that song and the b-sides from Great Cold Distance if you havn't yet. Unfurl defines Katatonia's sound. One of the best bands of the late 90's 2000's
Hegyaljára én is mennék mindenképpen, csakhogy Rockmaraton utolsó napjával ütközik, aholis hatalmas bebaszás van, meg death-black metal a kisszínpadon egész nap :D
He actually lost it around 97. He recorded growling vocals for the first album of his short-lived side project October Tide, entitled 'Rain without end'. And, well... he sort of still has some growls left: they ended their gig here in Mexico City playing 'Without God' two years ago, Jonas KICKED ASS in that song!!
I must of caught them on an off night in Montreal opening for Moonspell. They had 0 stage presence...guitars weren't working. The bassist looks liek he wants to shoot himself and doesn't belong in the band. Singer is so bad live i couldn't believe it. The only band that is worse is Type 0 Negative live. But i seriously love them though. Must have been an off night. been listening to them forever!
Claro imbecil, no ve que por eso las mujeres españolas prefieren a los latinos que a los de su pais, por eso vamos para canada, australia y paises nordicos y nos tienen como reyes por lo buenos trabajadores que somos, y por eso un "Indio" es actualmente el hombre mas rico del mundo... jojojo....
Sera mejor que te calles campeon, que tanto presumis de pais, y os venis todos a España porque no teneis una mierda alli, no merece la pena ni perder tiempo hablando con vosotros, muertos de hambre.
Simplemente la verdad duele, y a mi no fue el que me la dijeron, estoy seguro que frente a frente no seria capas de decirme nada a la cara, escudandose tras pueriles palabras, predecible, de parte de un ignorante ciego mental como ud.
Leaders! Grandissimi i Katatonia, raramente ho potuto ascoltare un gruppo così unico ed originale. I loro live sono davvero potenti, spero di poterli vedere dal vivo prima o poi!
his growls are amazing
