[dpchiko17]

I seriously melt when she says "sere"

The way she does it <3

[Pr0failer]

A Rose for Epicness, pls :o

[erigus]

If this isn´t a hit what is????

[MetalTruelml]

A F*cking Good Song !! 

[deepthought23]

Love the music, love the song and her voice..Sings brilliantly but the lyrics are a bit lame..

[Ovekireland]

Eluveitie feat evanescence? Seems legit.

[doomshead]

[MasterAceReaper]

TOGETHER WE GO DOWN WITH OUR PEOPLEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

[Imuyutsu]

@MasterAceReaper PPIIIIIIIIPPPPÖÖÖÖÖÖLLLLLL xD

[mishisaurusrex]

I know I'll probably be youtube-shunned for asking this but how'd you pronounce their name? I can't tell everyone how awesome they are if I can't say their name! XD

[TheMaggot1994]

@mishisaurusrex it's pronounced elveiti

[CelestialLink]

@mishisaurusrex EL-OO-VAY-TEE

[dofiv]

OH HOLY LORD THAT WAS A GOOD EXPERIENCE! <3

[kainheinrich]

is it normal for a guy to have tears after hearin this song? if it is im ok...if not im fucked.....

[Imuyutsu]

@kainheinrich Man .. im proud of you finally I found another guy feeling the same things like me lol its ok if you got tears ;)

[ExperimenterFarewell]

@Imuyutsu Yeah, it's actually not as uncommon as you may think. I'm a guy and I love Anna's voice and this song is my favorite so far! I just love good music in general, and I'd say my playlist is evenly divided between bands with male singers and bands with female singers.

[EselterL2]

celtycki pagan-folk metal z wpływami melodic death metal

xD

[fenialilith1]

This is awesum*.* im in love

[David666Mezei]

Folk metal + Evanessence xD

[KuriAvSkog]

@David666Mezei LOL, (n)

[SaphiraSiLva001]

@David666Mezei That's like comparing Sepultura with Miley Cyrus.

This is Folk, no emo/goth-shit.

[locdao1706]

@David666Mezei Evanesscence is a different genre, no offense they are good but they cant compare to El

[darkkwinter]

hmmm... very very different, a much more modern/mainstream sound. i dunno if i like it yet

[ScreamingPsychos]

Now I understand why the Link's horse is named Epona in The Legend of Zelda...

[ForWeAreDragonborn]

Such an epic song and band

[InfamousSI]

Listen to "Blood Stain Child - Metropolice" then come back here and post your reaction.

[MetaleuxWill]

@InfamousSI

O.O...Same melody D:

[badminton411]

this is the best song of this band

this women shoud be sign more often



[petraizzg]

Wooow, her voice is so much stronger... Great job! CAn't wait for all of it!!!

[HeavyMetalBagpipe]

"Why hast you forsaken me? into thy hand i commend my spirit": stop me if i'm wrong, but it's the last Jesus's words on the cross? into a gaulish context? eh, it's not idiot... oO

[MightyDandelion]

@HeavyMetalBagpipe It's from Luke 23:46 actually.

[HeavyMetalBagpipe]

@MightyDandelion yeah, you're right, thanks for the precision :p

[WatcherOnTheWall]

@HeavyMetalBagpipe Yeah but i think the sentiment fits.

[Anthaurose]

hearing this song and reading those lyrics put shivers up my spine.  That means it is good if it can do that.

[Metalheadmilo]

The next band asked me not to read this... But goddammit, I'm gonna read it anyway. Cuz I wrote it! And it's the truth! "I FUCKING LOVE THIS BAND. They are the best band ever... PERIOD!" Ladies and gentlemen... ELUVEITIE!

[ZuluToadStool]

Fucking Aggressive riffs and great lyrics. What else did you expect from Eluveitie????

[ThisCantBeFreedom]

This band becomes better day by day! Fantastic song... :)

[MrSlayergod88]

Isn't Epona the name of Link's horse on The Legend of Zelda? This a good song, may have to buy this album...

[rammsteinrulz16]

@MrSlayergod88 check the link in the description. May tell you why they chose Epona for the name of a horse ^^

[MrSlayergod88]

@rammsteinrulz16 Oh, yeah, I knew that! Would've been cooler if it was about Link's Horse :P hahaha!

[richardcharette89]

To everyone who says this song sucks do the world a favor and go suck start a 9mm your Better off as roadkill ill kick all your asses. Secondly, i love that eluveitie has a way of bringing history back to life especially the gaulish history and the story of the helvetians. Most of that part of history is long forgotten by most but it was a crucial part of European history. Sad so many people died the way they did by punk bitch Julius Ceasar. Thank you eluveitie for another amazing album

[lordofutub]

soooooooo, what has this to do with the roman god epona?

[rammsteinrulz16]

@lordofutub Actually Epona is Gaulish, and the link in the description tells all.

(Why does no one pay attention to the description anymore? It answers EVERY question!)

[the0star0]

ELUVEITIE keep up

you are the bast !!!!

[hardcoreoma]

why u make no good quality ? welcome to 21st century nuclearblast ..

[Zicoderula]

Started watching "Well, they are just getting weaker and weaker" 1min in "Do they even have Chrigel sing any more" 2min in "Ok, so obviously he doesn't sing anymore, these guys suck" 2:37 "FINALLY" 2:59 "Is that it... THIS IS BULLSHIT"

[magikfreek44]

@Zicoderula So do you think Omnos and Slania's Song suck just because Chrigel doesn't lead in those songs? The "character" who sings this song is a woman, it wouldn't make sense if Chrigel sung it.

[iloveyouandalways]

Geweldig nummer, zeeeeer verslavend!

[hellraiser666kill]

fuck u all this album sucks.

[TheAkunHome]

@hellraiser666kill

Escuchalo todo antes de acusar de esa forma.

[StAntonioStefanov]

eluveitie... tale after tale better and better... brings the past back to life^^

[juanmurillo12]

[Drago5899]

@juanmurillo12 Look! Reinforcments from the south shore. Really for they shall not break our spirits!

[pentechram]

@suicidefixated lol if this is shit metal then please enlighten us with an example of what u think non shit metal is all knowing metal master...

[Fuckgagayestim]

Anna's voice is gorgeous. Also, the song and the band is amazing. It always tells a story, not silly and meaningless things. So if you say bad things about them, i will kick your ass, bitches.

[eiszapfen78]

Excellent album i listen to it every day.

[hybridpsycho]

Her voice is amazing, it was long since I heard such a wonder.

When I heard there was gonna be female vocals in this song I had doubt, but this is truly magnificent.

[MrDragslide]

thiis beautifull voice.. it's soooooo fkn awesome ! :) i love this song! :D

[spikelee2u]

OMFG!! this isnt´the band i use to like!! it sounds like evanesce with bagpipes!

[ianisamonkey1]

@spikelee2u its one song, like Omnos. Settle down.

[Sarmizegetusa106]

@spikelee2u That is your opinion but I think that you are wrong

[GarAttila]

@spikelee2u I almost wrote that this is too evanescency...

[AquariusXII]

@spikelee2u What is fucking wron with you. Only for the fact that Anna is singing this song dont give the right to comprare it with a band like Evanescence

[Reinkaos819]

I just got this crazy idea : since the main melody IS Bloodstained Child - Metropolice,how about on tour these 2 bands hook up and perform a mash-up of both songs?Eluveitie,Bloodstained Child,MAKE IT HAPPEN!

[FPBlackBeast]

This is nooot the greatest plagiarism in the wooorld... U_U this is just a tribute

[xXxNightMareZ]

They should write songs in Galician

[BrothaYasuji]

@xXxNightMareZ Galician isn't a Celtic language though. If they ever revive Gallaic though they should.

[macqrac]

Blood Stain Child - Metropolice

[Yigal76]

Awesome!!!!!!



[Decadencemaster]

what a fooking great song! her voice is magnificent!

[gothickevain]

this album is gonna hit like a bomb

[ValdarTheTrue]

Masterpiece :)

[Galleguete14]

Perfecta

[xXxNightMareZ]

@Ashleymjy the things is, behind everything there's a reason and sometimes this reason is, how can I say without making it sound mean... STUPID. And, unfortunately, that's what is found on every pop song. It may be said that a band sold out when they do things for money, for example (bad reason)... Now, you may say "oh, music is just for fun" well, yes, but it is also art, and art is supposed to "guide" people to a righteous path, and not turn them into complete dicks.

[gregorwyss]

Love it also!!!

Greetings from Switzerland ;)

[Kamakawiwo1]

Qué canción tan excelente!

[AgustinJR24]

love it =)

[DeathMetalWizard]

This isnt really my style of metal. But from what im hearing its pretty bad ass

[CHBbas]

@DeathMetalWizard listen to some other songs like inis mona or thounsandfold these songs are really different and very badass ;)

[Constablejoe]

This is so good...i say it should be against the universe for Eluveitie to not come to Colorado and play a show which includes this song once their new album drops! :) best folkloric band to ever exist!

[GAMEMETAL666]

it seems :BLOOD STAIN CHILD Metoropolice

[WazheadBoci]

@GAMEMETAL666 Y thats a piece of shit :D

How can u compare it to Elu ? omfg dude...

[Reinkaos819]

@GAMEMETAL666 Yeah the first melody is the same,but it could be the melody of another main song they both used.Like Inis Mona uses the melody of Tre Martelau (spellcheck)

[loljpl]

The instrumental sucks

[fvidz]

esta bakan el tema, Eluveitie tiene toda la onda

[Sonatafan14]

This stuff has quite some potential!

[XxVampricAngelxX]

Love Love Love, Your music has helped me so much!!!!! Cant wait for the new album <3

[twilink666]

Epona? Zelda? Metal?? 

[SuicideFixated]

what kind of shit is called metal nowadays...

[Sellath]

@SuicideFixated try looking in the iron carbon diagram. you'll find a lot of metal. This is about good music, not about some kind of raw material.

[SuicideFixated]

@Sellath good music is about the view of the listener... i think it sucks but that's just my opinion... i just said it's a joke what is called metal nowadays

[ThePsionictemple]

@SuicideFixated yeah, but the reason people get upset is because you took the time to come down here and make fun of it, when you had to realize the majority of the people listening to this like it and went in search of it. If you know so much more about what constitutes such a fluid genre, how were you not smart enough to just walk away rather than stirring everyone up? post script: your name is retarded and will make everyone that's not thirteen hate you immediately.

[SuicideFixated]

@ThePsionictemple am i not allowed to say this isn't metal? i'm listening to metal for over 10 years don't tell me i can't judge what is metal and what not...

i didn't say it sucks or something, i just told the other guy i don't like it because he was the same retard as you for not understanding a simple sentence

[theunsanereaper]

@SuicideFixated You are a joke because you come here to make fun for a genre which we fans like. Get lost and listen to what you call "music" before you grow some pubic-hair on your balls and realise that going and being a prick doesn't get you anywhere except making people think less of you.

[TheSonOfTheJackal666]

It's a fucking awsome song, Anna sings beautifull and it's perfect! i hope that they play this song in Mexico City :) I WANT HELVETIOS NOW!!

[JorisKanters]

@SonOfTheSystem If you did some research you'd know that they are all traditional melodies. They're nobody's property so anyone can use them.

[SonOfTheSystem]

@JorisKanters Thanks, now i know that :)

[Swampdragon102]

This song is like Omnos. The more you listen to it, the better it becomes!

I'm listening to this song the whole day now. It's my new favorite song.

[xXxNightMareZ]

@Swampdragon102 have you heard the "early metal Omnos"? pretty good

[Swampdragon102]

@xXxNightMareZ I LOVE the early Omnos metal version!

[metalheaddrummer101]

@Swampdragon102 weird. I liked Omnos the first time I heard it. Agreed on this one, though

[xCrystalForest]

Nice...

[frozenlys]

whats with the sound quality? AWESOME SONG

[mopster95]

can't wait !!

[MrSisro]

Flutes, hurdy gurdy , violins and the mandolin are stong metal instruments like the guitar drums and the keyboard... and eluveitie can pull it off sooooooooo well.. a talented group and im speechless everytime i listen to what they come up with .. just speechless....

[AngelieKubisova]

NICE !!!

[ForboJack]

The beginning reminds me a little bit of a rock version of the Mirror's Edge theme. I really like this song.

[abn0rmalJ]

Anna <3

[IgorEdward]

so good...

[xKiracchan]

LOL this makes me proud of my country ahaha

[VincentDir]

Eluveitie is so fucking awesome.

[dsearchingfrnds]

awesome friends...

rocked (:

[HumalDiscover]

How can ppl dislike this, i dun understand

[vickfreak]

[](/b10)

[diogoRibeirinha]

Love it. Can't wait for the album.

[ladydemon109]

yeah..!! this song is good, very good...

[quietriotfan1976]

This is amazing...way better than anything that pop radio plays

[Excubinat]

Eins das die schweizer wieder gut da stehen Lässt sind Eluveitie und Gotthardt (band)

[Linqua2112]

well, at least its a little bit different

[IansBasementVideos]

Does anyone else think this bares a bit of a resemblance to Bloodstain Child's "Metropolice," or am I insane?



[ianisamonkey1]

@IansBasementVideos it is similar however the folk melody isnt copyrighted

[IansBasementVideos]

@ianisamonkey1 Very true. It's not just the melody though, the singing style is a bit similar, and they even used electric drums on the first verse. To my knowledge, Eluveitie hasn't used electric drums before. I'm not crying "RIP OFF!" or anything, it just weirds me out

.

[metatheisthead]

@IansBasementVideos yeah bro, same thought

[Heartabolical555]

haha this reminds me of my matura paper :D i had to summarize the swiss history in the last 10'000 years.. <3 it

[Entaros123]

You guys rock! Keep up the gualish legacy!

[MultiGotardo]

O_O woman's voice is beautiful,¿ what is her name?

[123potatosoup]

@MultiGotardo I think its Anna who sings that song..

[IansBasementVideos]

@MultiGotardo It's Anna Murphy. She also plays the Hurdy Gurdy in other Eluveitie songs.

[Siryath]

Also, assholes who think this is pop are the same assholes who think metal is about grunting and screaming like diseased apes.

[jibber102]

@Siryath They're just the idiots who think metal can't involve softer vocals or softer anything, because it has to be "br00tal".

[BigWillThePrince]

@Siryath but i like growls and screams? D:

[Siryath]

Weak. They should have stuck to Gaulish. While the eluveitie sound is there, it sounds awkward in english.

[Swamplord12]

Ive noticed that people are saying this is too much like pop for their tastes......idk where they got pop from. The folk is definately there the hurdy gurdy and bagpipes and the flute, it also has the distinct Eluveitie sound. Anna is a talented vocalist and its about time she sang in English :). Honestly just enjoy the song, if its too slow/clean for you, listen to Meet the Enemy

TLDR; this has no pop in it so kindly stfu xD

[KustiIisakki]

i like it.

[uraharaelric]

So, the girl singing is Malon?

[Cortarr]

low quality

[Bludazt]

wow sounds like Evanessence =)))

[Kilgorin10]

It sounds like a shitty pop ballad with some power chords and flutes buried in the background. Eluveitie are progressively getting worse and worse.

[ajaeiful]

@Kilgorin10 Where do you find any pop sound in this ? Just because it's a lighter song with clean vocals doesn't mean it aint metal... Listen to Meet the Enemy, that song is alot different and i think you will enjoy it more. I love this song and i think the album will be awsome.

[Kilgorin10]

@ajaeiful Verse/chorus, predictable instrumentation, re-used chord progressions, shitty beats in the verses... Not the clean vocals or lack of metal. The way it's written is obviously like pop.

[HayabusaNoTsuchi]

Helvetians? Oh come on, we ALL know this song is really about Hylians.

[WuschelZz]

my plan for the next 24 hours: hear this song 327 times

[sumeragicrow]

The female voices are more melodic and the growlings are way better masterized. I will enjoy this album.

[xdragonboi]

i thought it was Blood stain Child- Metropolice for a moment... they sound so alike. o.o

[ROELXIV]

@xdragonboi It's the same intro... Only Eluveitie's version is better Mastered... But still stolen!

[IansBasementVideos]

@ROELXIV I highly doubt it's stolen. The intervals are slightly different in places, it's a little slower, and in a different key. Not to mention the totally different instrumentation They're similar for sure, I noticed it too, but I doubt it was intentional.

[MrRip1997]

Gallia=Γαλλία=France

[galaxias27]

Wow this is actually great.Never was a big fan, but still.......

[kelejodanalsistema]

LOL the intro is like: Blood Stand Child - metropolice

[lilibeape]

do come to Argentina! :)

[lilibeape]

fucking gooooooooooooooooooooooood! outstanding work!

[hardcoreoma]

this beautiful voice ...

[Kataklysme666]

missing fucking amazing grunts !!

[DerCorny]

Here are the tabs for this song:

C-UP C-LEFT C-RIGHT C-UP C-LEFT C-RIGHT

[XXToddeXX]

Beautiful vocals. 

[DanishMetalhead]

First Lance King stealing the main riff from Amaranthe - 1.000.000 Lightyears, and now Eluveitie stealing the intro from Blood Stain Child - Metropolice.. Come on guys, write your own songs

[Huyarist]

@DanishMetalhead Not that. U should listen more kinds of folk music. I see that Western Folk music and Eastern folk music are similar in some ways. therefore, there was the possibility of having coincidence...

[yantomer]

blood stain child - metropolice anyone? the beginning is the exact same

[Huyarist]

@yantomer This is Just a similar melody tune...BSC has used some folk elements in Metropolice, and there're many kinds of folk music have similar tunes!
