First time I ever heard this song I was tripping on mushrooms all night and literally listened to it 20-40 times in a row. It was such an intense song on Shrooms, still is sober too
sooo good, art of balance and the war within are really the only good albums they ever put out, threads of life and this new one have much less musicianship and originality.
Holy Shit, I never actually listened to Shadows Fall outside of when they had a bonus song in guitar hero a few years back. Now I'm finally listening to them...they're fuckin' awesome!!
my mom was shouting on me ! i thought she was angry cuz i'm listening to this song! when i turned off the stereo ! i just heard shes trying to say ! crank that up! or else i'll hit you in the face! ! ! next thing i knew were HEADBANGIN!!!!
When god, the gods, aliens, or whatever is up there, returns to earth they will melt in pure awe at the epicness that has been created here on this youtube page by this song. \, , ,/
LIKE SHADOWS FALL?? Then you need to check out a metal band from NY called Through the Flood. We have three brand new songs from our official E.P. up on our page along with some old demos. If you like the music please subscribe. Also be sure to add us on Facebook!!! Keep it metal!! \m/ \m/ -TTF
This is my favorite song by shadows fall. More talent and creativeness than any other band of its kind. 3:17 is simply the one of the best guitar riffs ill ever hear
As a child of the 80's, Shadows Fall strikes me as one of the only worthy heirs to the metal crown. They pay tribute to what came before, innovate and stay true.

all these fucking sub-genres of metal are pissing me off ,im not saying there bad but cant you just call it fucking metal and not get all fucking technical
@sllugg its simply MMMMEEEETTTTALLLL!!!! fuck melodic death metal fuck metalcore fuck hardcore fuck grindcore fuck all that shit PRAISE HEAVY FUCKIN METAL
Shadows Fall is just metal same as Deicide and other satanic bands shut the fuck up about religion and enjoy the music, im Christian and i listen 2 ALL metal so it doesnt matter (and no im not a hypocrit being christian and listenin 2 Deicide bcuz their former guitarists were christian and one of the current guitarists is Christian AND furthermore the satanic lyrics r a joke, 2 cause controversy)
@Staindfan73 I'm saying metal is metal, who gives a fuck what it's about just enjoy it, i know they're nothing alike, Shadows Fall is a just plain metal, Deicide is death metal, i know the differences, I'm just saying don't hate on bands because they different views, who cares, it's all heavy fuckin' metal.
@randyeffa I believe what you're saying is "Music is music, it invokes a myriad of feelings, most of which we don't even know, they're just from our ancestral line, so shut the fuck up about religion when it really doesn't do anything to the music." Deicide would sound the same, satanic or not. Also, yes they mostly just use shock lyrics.
awesome band... these guys are more than just musicianship they put across a great message through their lyrics as well... with all the satanic metal bands out there and all their bullshit, listening to shadows fall is like a breath of clean fresh air
i don't know if they can be labeled as a christian band... but some of their lyrics have specific messages about heaven, the soul and other christian beliefs, they also talk about Mount Zion in one of their songs, they even have a song called "crushing belial" (belial is the devil in the bible) and the lyrics that don't have anything to do with christian beliefs still deliver good messages like perseverance and so on
after i heard redemption in madden 08 a couple of years ago i had to keep checking shadows fall out and they fuckin rock but besides redemption this song made me get more into shadows fall and i love it fuckin 5/5
its Brian Fair not flair... sorry it just bugged me in the side bar thing... i never knew wat it was bout but now it just makes this song so much better SHADOWS FALL IS GOD!!!
well, yeah.. he can. you spelled "copied" wrong just there, and "from," as well. if you're such a huge fan, it's a pretty elementary knowledge to actually know the band members names, wouldn't you say? maybe next time instead of plagiarising someone else's review, you could put it into your own thoughts and create something of your own.
oh, and thanks for posting the video. i couldn't be bothered alt-tabbing to my iTunes.
this song has so much more meaning to me now. never really paid attention to the lyrics until i found out what the song was about. then i read the lyrics and they are much deeper than just a metal song.
This album helped me get through the toughest time of my life. To think that I bought this album thinking that they were a different band. Now it's one of my favorite albums by one of my favorite bands of all time.
shadows fall came and played a 1/2 hour show in canberra, australia, and they had like 5 minutes to get off stage, and he told me to come back stage with him!!!!
