  • Excited about seeing them live in Camden Underworld ! \m/ 

  • Serenity has such awesome music videos - a perfect complement to their amazing music.

  • great vid, awesome song :---)

  • at 2:47 the drummer wants to be a member of van canto :D

  • SERENITY ARE AWESOME! They have 3 albums and 3 music videos ;) Go and watch 'When The Canvas Start To Burn', if you haven't. However, still, my favorite video would be 'The Chevalier' (which is, unfortunately, deleted, but Serenity said that they will upload it again), and my favorite songs would be 'The Chevalier' and 'Fairytales'. And I would give anything to be like Georg, cause he is awesome, I even look like him a bit :)

  • A so facking epic song :D

  • they're so good I just wish they were realy popular so I could find the sheet music or TAB though

  • Great music, go on!!!

  • 3:58 - 4:34 Great job with vocal!!! I mean, with all his vocals :-)

  • SCHWUCHTELKACKE

  • Don't know why, but I like this one more than the new album... Probably because this song is the reason for having fallen in love with this band <3

  • He sounds a lot like Tony Kakko ! Instant win in my book. I love this song !

  • I thought he looked more like Ryan Reynolds

  • I've seen them live, nice, strong vocals but that's all, Sonata is way better than them. Of course it's stupid to compare symphonic with power-progressive in the first place.

    And guitarist has no serious skill, solos are poor.

  • They are great band, and I really like them! And I think that gothic and vampire based music videos always end up to be the best :)

  • I want more Serenity videos please??!!!??

  • @hobsquabble there is a video for Chevalier, and in my opinion, one of the most beautiful music videos in the history

  • @NenadlPopovic Thanks, but 2 for 3 albums? It's so frustrating. I love Georg's voice and his stage presence was brilliant despite the small cramped stage in Nürnberg. I want them to tour Australia :) gah *obsessed fan moment*

  • @hobsquabble well at the start, most gothic oriented musicians hardly make videos, cause they focus on writing songs (they are not like some rap and pop crap 'artists' who's music is copied or written in 5 minutes; also gothic videos usually require more money). When they get a bit more famous and get money from the albums, they start to make music videos and release singles. Look at the Nightwish (they died since Tarja left) or Within Temptation, they started to make videos after 3 or 4 albums

  • I like Serenity in small doses. I am especially fond of their a capella.

  • Just a few days ago I discovered this band. I love it soo much already! :D

  • Symphonic metals best kept secret

  • Man this is seriously some of their best work EVER!!!!!!!

  • This band is amazing. The singer is fantastic! I rarely like male singers, but this guy has a great voice

  • Other than stupid pop music, this is fucking TALENT!!

  • oh and bad outro

  • good song but i have to disagree not better then sonata arctica or kamelot ;) better then within temptation or epica though

  • i can' stop listening to that song!!!! SO AMAZING

  • I'd like to smack upside the head the person who wrote the description. pfft, Sonata Arctica reigns over all :) I wouldn't say they're symphonic like this band anyway!

    I do like this, though! I'll be checking out more :D

  • the lycris

  • i'm a huge fan of sonata arctica and till now i havent found anything remotly close to their work

    but serenity is becoming my second favorite band very fast, epsecialy thanks to this song! the end is just magical!!!

  • Wow... This song is just amazing :O

  • i like serenity but they better not be talking about taking over sonata arctica, that is a fools errand and blasphemous

  • @what1414 Haha well blame the label, not the band!

  • @what1414 I agree :p

  • Comment removed

  • @what1414 they are already better than Sonata Arctica, with the latest album way above them, artistically speaking, Sonata Arctica pales in contrast with Serenity, most of their songs are so unlistenable and Tony Kako's voice doesn't always fit their play style, but mainstream is mainstream...

  • @Kalimdor199 I totally agree with you man. I mean, I love Sonata Arctica but when I heard Serenity´s latest album Death and Legacy I was like "WOW"... And this song is masterpiece, too!!!

  • @Kalimdor199

    sonata has a unique style...serenity sounds like a follower

    but they actually are good :P

  • @what1414 At the least they'd be taking Kamelot's place. The new singer has been most unimpressive in Kamelot =(

  • @QueenVampiress101 kamelot is the best but as u said unfortunately the new singer sucks

  • Einer meiner Lieblingssongs!!!! Einfach großartig!!!

  • cant wait to see them live in april \m/

  • im such a sucker for this sort of music. This is good, solid power metal. LOVE IT.

  • Pretty great sound, but they do have a long way to go to reach Sonata, Kamelot, Stratovarius etc.

  • amazingggggggggggggggggggggggg­ggggg!!love symphonic metal!!!

  • The vocal looks a little bit like Ben Stiller

  • the vocal sounds like Tony Kakko from Sonata Arctica to me ... same voice pattern and all .. same intonation ... maybe it's just me

  • @servetheenot

    NO man! this Georg guy sounds much better! he's APPARENTLY more trained with better breath control and a very clear & high voice. the only comparable band i could think off is Stratovarius.

  • @servetheenot I thought the same thing. They sound very similar

  • @servetheenot you're right in that i noticed it too

    For that matter i have no idea who i find a better vocalist. This guy or Tony from sonata. And i have the sonata logo tattood on my arm so that says a lot :P

  • I'd never heard of Serenity till I heard they are supporting Delain in Europe this spring.

    Really like the sound, a bit different from others within the genre

  • Love it! They sound like shinedown in some parts

  • the purest male vocal in power metal since Stratovarius

  • @HARVSTO you mean sonata arctica? this doesn't really sound like stratovarius

  • @SpykeZ0129

    doesn't sound like sonata arctica either= = yea their edtitng may sounds similar, but sure thing is Serenity has better singer (SA's singer sounds a bit amateur and... untrained). the only similar singer i can think of is Timo Kotipelto of Stratovarius. Timo and Georg both have high pitch, accuracy in expression and strong spirit, while Timo goes for strength and Georg for purity.

  • Amazing, I even never heard about them.

  • This song sounds like The Howling - Within Temptation in some parts

  • Btw, has anyone noticed how beautifully Pagan the lyrics are?

    For example,

    "See a witness in every pile of stones,

    every place where they are standing in circles

    silent witness to the past, to times of old belief

    when spirits reigned in the mountains alone"

    "Where the sacred spring creates a place benign

    You feel fine, perceiving the ghosts of the old days"

    You really feel that the song is about getting in touch, perceiving, the spirits of the old days and the beliefs associated with them!

  • This is one of the best bands within this genre. Like others, I cannot understand why they are so underrated, their music is extraordinarily crafted and bursting with talent.

    They're also very down to earth, I had a long chat with Georg in Tilburg 2009 after the Kamelot concert, we spoke in a mixture of Italian and German and it was a very nice chat.

    I'll support these guys forever!

    Go Serenity!

  • @Heimdallr86 *jealous* Georg seems like a cool guy. and it's sad how underrated the bands are...they deserve so much more attention for making really good music.

  • Pandora got me into this band, they are so awesome!  This song is fantastic.

  • Never heard of this band till a link brought them to my attention and im impressed. Yes there are elements of Sonata Arctica and Kamelot in there....two of my favourite bands so i will definitely check out Serentity further. Thanks to those responsible for posting this and bringing them to my attention!!

  • Should be touring as the main act, not support. !!! I AGREE!! OUTSTANDING AND AWESOME, WISH THEY'V COME TO BUENOS AIRES!!!

    HUGS AND CONGRATS FROM ARGENTINA, KEEP ON ROCKIN!! \m/

  • I dont know why ,But his accent ruins it for me :S

  • Naaa he looks more like ben affleck.

    Amazing band though. Thank you!

  • Saw these guys supporting Kamelot in Glasgow last year and at Progpower in Holland this year and they are an outstanding band. Should be touring as the main act, not support. They're superb live.

  • I am a huge Sonata fan, but so disappointed with their last few albums...Finally I found something to feed my hunger for this kind of awesome melodic metal :D

    Thank you SERENITY!!!!

  • @iceshades SOOOO RIGHT same here

  • Every time I hear this song I'm stunned by it over and over again.... I love it!

  • @ChaoticHypocracy absolutely agree man, this is grand scale of what can come from talented bands, instead of just white noise, from bad bands, THIS is the beauty of music,

  • This band is without a doubt one of the most talented bands I have ever heard, not just within their genre, they are simply beyond epic. I place them right on the same tier as Ayreon, Opeth, Disillusion, and Dream Theater. And that, for me, is truly saying something. Because, in other words, I'm saying they're are one of the five most talented groups I have ever heard.

  • omg theyre great, more ppl have to know abt them cos theyre just epic - rlly looking forward to seeing em support delain in april now =)

  • @Blieflower

    I wish delain would support them... but I guess time will tell ;)

  • @iceshades maybe them supportin delain'll get them known so they can tour on their own :D i still cant get over how amazing they are could listen to em 24/7

  • I am a HUGE metal fan, and I sing in a metal band also, ( altho its very diferent from this metal style ). I just found this band today and I agree...SPREAD THE WORD. They are very very good, amazing voice and amazing arrengmennts ;)

  • Dude still looks like fucking Ben Stiller! 1:45

  • really nice song!

  • this band... *speechless*

    GIEF MORE SERENITY!!

  • One of the best songs I've herd in the past few months... Keep it up!

  • Comment removed

  • itz fuck'n awesome thay should be more famous !

  • Musically this is pretty cool but the singer is over dramatic

  • Love these guys, been listening to them ever since I randomly picked up their "Words Untold and Dreams Unlived" album a long time ago. THey are one of my favorite bands EVER.

  • first song I hear from them and they COMPLETELY BLOWED ME AWAY!!! Awesome band!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i know the bassist... nice guy! pretty down to earth...

  • @MetalMaggo He left the band..

  • So MUSE F**K OFF !!

  • wow... first time hearing this group, very impressive.

  • Great song from even better album :D

    3:31 - 3:36, 4:00 - To the end :P - great vocal harmonies!!!

  • Sonata, Kamelot and Serenity are the three best symphonic metal groups in existence.

  • 10 of 10 very creative.

  • HE FUCKING LOOKS LIKE BEN STILLER XD

    1:46

    

  • @MuffinJinReturns hahahaha he totally does

  • @MuffinJinReturns No way; he totally looks like Dane Cook.

  • hmm not my cup of vodka,sounds like backstreet boys went metal :S

  • Hey now, dont push Kamelot And Sonata Arctica to make way for Serenity.... LETS SEE ALL 3 OF THEM TOUR TOGETHER :D!

  • @IXIBloodshedIXI Amen to that my man, how about a World Tour :)

  • @stoutmeister91 Your fucking rights mate. Those 3 would make one of the best tours EVER KNOWN TO MAN!

  • Why do I think that maybe Metal has evolved TOO MUCH? I remember a time when keyboards and violins were considered a sacrilege and now they have become essential to every F@#$ING band.

  • good music, the singer overdoes the acting a bit though, they should leave that to kamelot:p

  • Nice.

    See ya at Metalfest!

  • This is truly good music. It is really pleasant to listen to, and everything fits together so well! Make sure you guys get their albums and spread the good music to all the unknowing :D

  • epicness!

  • they're awesome, such a great band!

    cheer from mexico!

  • Bought the album 6 months ago its well worth it, still one of my favourites (Y)

  • the singer is so hot

  • This song and video is incredible !!

    five stars from me ;)

  • really nice.

    but the singer doesnt fit somehow oO

  • ending is great

  • Very special song, the chorus is just perfect.

  • I just recently heard about this band, I checked out their last record Fallen Sanctuary and was completely impressed. Great band. I am definitely looking forward to their next album.

  • Good Song!5 stars from me

  • inb4 people raging at the description of this video.

    Ahh shit wait...

  • great songs,nice bands!! this bands destroy the old style of power.lol!!very good...

  • Love this song so much. It's beautiful without being pretentious and completely rocking without being mindless

  • What I love about this song is that it really doesn't sound like nothing out there and I've heard alot of metal bands.

  • amazing

  • wow, I just discovered a new listening sensation

  • @SLQWERTY me too

  • Great song. Looking forward to their next album this year

  • Fuck!!! Kurwa!!!Fucking awesome!!!

  • I know the guys quite well - have seen them on many concerts and we had some talks afterwards...so all I can say - they don't compare themselves with Sonata Arctica or Kamelot!! They are fans from them as well - that's the reason why they are playing this style of music!! AND I think this "step aside" thing was created by their label! So I'm happy that beside Kamelot and Sonata there's another band with GREAT music and great concerts! And they only have two cds so far....so let's support them!!!

  • @rexfrancorum this is so true, they are different enough to those bands to easily co-exist but similar enough to attract the same group of fans

  • Yeah these guys are okay, but your asking Kamelot and Sonata Arctica to step aside? You sir are out of your mind. No one could ever make Roy Khan step aside, he is amazing and beautiful. No, these guys are not that great. Good but not great.

  • Great, but in a different way. How does that sound? ;-)

  • Excelent Album /song Another single would be really wellcomed

  • <3<3<3<3

  • 3:30 epic

  • both bands do well on a high level.

  • I prefer Fallen Sanctuary over Days of Grays and Unia. Serenity has lots to improve on but with proper promotion they will be one of the leading forces in melodic metal after a few more albums.

  • true.

  • Good song, but they can't beat Sonata Arctica.

  • 0:41 epic guitar riff

  • I saw them when they toured with Kamelot. I came to the show for Kamelot but left with a new favourite band!

  • The singer looks like a badass Will Arnett. Great stuff.

  • I saw these guys yesterday, they were great!

    A really nice show.

  • The beginning reminded me of Sanctuary by Conception

    -H-

    He has a very nice voice.

  • Saw them live two days ago (they were warming up for Threshold), and they did a good job. Bought the album this song is on, and really liked it :-)

  • LOL, I wanna laugh at the guy who made the description.

    Serenity may be influenced by other bands, but come on, no way they'll step aside.

    And plus, they sound original to me!

  • yeah WTF Sonata Arctica must step aside.

    They are MUCH better then Serenity.

  • Epic!

  • I love this band! :-)

    Saw them last week and they were great to see live.

    Hope to see them again someday!!!

  • fucking awesome!

  • this dick ?

  • haha, you told that to my comment?

  • maybe..

  • He somehow sometimes reminds me of an Ben Afleck.....

  • i love this song

    it's so emotional

    i cant describe it

    amazing

  • Dont get me wrong, i really like them,too.

    but the vocalist seems a little bit too dramatic to me.

    But the sound is great. (:

  • I reck he got his insperation from Karn from Kamelot and he is dramtic too :)

  • @Ancientkrypt

    yeah he is really too dramatic i saw them live, the drummer is a good friend from me in Innsbruck, but the sound is great :)

  • @Ancientkrypt : Saying "too dramatic" when it comes to metal is like saying "too wet" when it comes to water.

  • "Still so many secrets

    And so many tales untold remain"

    Hail from Hungary!

  • The whole album, Fallen Sanctuary, is good.

  • if you like these guys you should check out Stratovarius, they are one of my favorite bands and sound similar.

  • They aren't famous enough for their awesomeness, spread the word!

  • This is a quite powerful and epic song, very easily among my favorites, and something that could become a classic power ballad for metal. You can totally picture 5,000 fans chanting along with Khan. How powerful would that be, to hear an ocean of fans sharing in such a great and uplifting track?

  • Agreed!! 100%

  • He still looks like Ben Stiller to me xD

  • I got a picture with the guy O_O he's awesome xD

  • This is pretty damn good!

    Not as good as Sonata Arctica or Kamelot imo, but still great music.

  • i saw them live!!!!

    i am such a tool for not asking an autograph and picture!!!! fucking stupid :/

  • dude these are amazing live :)

  • this song and video couldn't get any better than it already is. CHEERS!!!!!!!

  • so does your mum

    heyyyoooooooooooooooo

    (sorry, couldnt resist)

  • great!!

    can't wait to see them in september!!

  • These guys are great, definitely in my top fav bands. For me my favorite bands are, Kamelot, Sons of Seasons, Serenity, Delain, Epica, Nightwish, Northern Kings, Tarot, Within Temptation, and To-Mera.

  • holy shit thats almost all my favourite bands hahah

    never heard to-mera or sons of seasons yet, but i'm deffinatly checking em out now

  • awesome.

  • Sons of Seasons is Oliver Paltio's band (not spelled correctly), and he is Kamelot's keyboardist

  • Yeah most are my fav's too!!

  • cool.

  • Absolutely fantastic. :) They have potential.

  • Great Band. Unfortunately I was too late at their last performance in Bochum and heard only the last three songs. Glad that I already saw them in Cologne.

  • saw them yesterday in bochum but didn't realize that the show started earlier, so I came a little late and entered the hall as they played the almost accapella part at 3:30. I was just stunned and stood there at the entrance of the hall with goosebumps ^^
