[KANtemir85]

The picture is fucking amazing.

[sedofar]

damn good song ! :d luv anathema

[kocazahir]

@6:20 WTF?

[xlemathax]

@kocazahir Totally! Somehow it sounds like Athan (Muslim prayer calls) which is very strange.

[dimitrisagreborn]

Τι κομματάρα , τι δισκάρα...

[yuya7723]

Opening guitar is nice !

[spider15555]

Το κομμάτι είναι RESPECT!!!

[thankGodforDavidG]

I'm in agreement with the view everythings evolves and moves on, few bands excel in starting fresh from an idea, lyrics or music arrangement. they don't use the last song as a jumping board but rather fly into the song's elevation uniquely. i would count Anathema among these bands with the end result that I come back to their songs to try a different flavor befitting a certain mood !

[SeigSel]

Allways liked anathema..old and new since 1995...But its has been to long with this softstyle...I think its appropriate to come forward with something that sounds like this again.If they still got the feeling for it...That would have been great.

[lefirstlelast]

@SeigSel

That's the thing people forget about bands. You can ask them over and over to do more in the vein of their older stye, but if they don't feel it anymore, then it feels flat and dull when they attempt to emulate it.

[dodeccahedron]

Εποχές αξέχαστες.......τι κομματάρα!!! την τρέλα μου μέσα....είμαι 34 και ανατριχιάζω ακόμα όταν το ακούω, όπως τότε......

[Sintranil]

@dodeccahedron Περνάνε τα ρημάδια τα χρόνια αδερφέ αλλά κάποιες αξίες παραμένουν σταθερές :)

[dodeccahedron]

@Sintranil ;)))

[wiltzer1]

@dodeccahedron τι κριμα που εχουν αποκληρωσει τις παλιες τους κυκλοφοριες.. αντε συγκρινε τωρα τουτο το ΕΠΟΣ με το we re here because we here... ουτε κατα διαννοια

[MrBachRules1685]

@dodeccahedron δεν νομίζω φίλε μου ότι κάποια πράγματα ξεχνιούνται ποτέ... ένα από αυτά είναι και οι Anathema!

[demf16]

the intro is my ringtone for mom. I wait for a moment to pick up in order to listen this song :)

[yoMrJ]

AWESOMENESS!

[pomakos21]

beer at a bar+anathema=more beer and memmories..

[Lyvien0]

I have seen them live with this song- 10.000 People in absolutly silence.... Great Song Great Performance- One of the realy Big BANDS on this Planet.

[Hipnozombie]

Increíble canción, larga vida a Anathema.

[mikegarrova]

What are the lyrics about? I'm not able to understand it because I don't speak englist :/

[AlcyoneSparkle]

@mikegarrova So, ask for it in spanish ahah! La interpretación musical es algo muy subjetivo, muy personal. Pero evidentemente mencionan un acto que desembocó en un gran error; un tiempo en el que todo lo bello, resplandeciente y firme (Elysium = Eliseo = "El Cielo") se desmoronó y lo único que quedó es un panorama gris y un utópico deseo de...

[mikegarrova]

@AlcyoneSparkle Ooh gracias. Muy bonito y profundo.

[alonetolgi94]

who likes that song will adore the early albums of  "Lacrimas Profundere" , an unique piece of doom metal!

[willderkacz]

anathema pls!!! i know ur maturing but pls make more gooothiic/dooooom metal like this plssss

[assholeroundeye]

@willderkacz pls

[yamahonkawazuki]

@assholeroundeye or please lol

[willderkacz]

this song is fucking amazing!!!!

[stglhor1zon]

Here's to the days when music meant something. disapppearing out of your suburb to take a walk inthte hills and forests with your hash pipe and leave all the shit off life behind with anathema and other quality doom bands recorded onto a casette on your walkman.

[dyingwishGR]

κομματάρα μουυυυυυ mmmmmmmmmm

[abarttoir]

If this is plagiarized, probably half of all metal tracks are a rip off. It's likely they got some inspiration from Wolfheart, but ultimately they made something far less boring. Probably I could still listen to this ten years later, while Wolfheart already started to bore me out of my skull after just a few listenings.

[mitzuzauru]

@abarttoir

1. if this is plagiarized it will never mean that everything is plagiarized. however, this is plagiarized

2. nobody gives a flying intercorse about your getting bored and what bores the redundant nutrients out of your skull

[t1950t]

POETRY...

[mitzuzauru]

Plagiarized Moonspell's Alma Mater. Fuck "Anathema's best song"!

[Beverast]

@mitzuzauru the songs are from the same year you fuckretard, Do you know how long does it take to write down an album? It is simply NOT possible. And in ANY case, if the songs have anything to do each other, then i am Jenna Jameson and you can keep on wank your mind forever.

[Beverast]

@mitzuzauru If this song is plagiarized from Alma mater I am Jenna Jameson and you can go on wank your mind forever.

both songs were released in year '95, how do you know WHEN they wrote down the respective songs?

[MacManiek]

amazing song, I love it

[GeorgeGians]

it makes me cry...

[realnextasy]

well im not complexing anyone with anything im just telling you the fact... i know what 'sala' sounds like and also im pretty sure the voice you hear in song is 'sala'. That doesnt mean anathema give religious messages or they are muslims:) they just used 'sala' cuz it fits the song. Cuz it fits the song's mood. nothing more.

[92mosess]

@realnextasy Dont be so sure. First of all "salaa " is the physical act of praying the whole body movements and so . "tilaawa / tajweed " or is what youre referring to. Im muslim and arabic is my first language and im telling you what we are hearing is most likely NOT Quraan verses . While it may sound like " tajweed " , which is an act of reading Quraan verses in a certain rythmic and gramatical way , it is most certainly not.

[realnextasy]

@92mosess im not saying they put the whole sala in this song. but the story of the song proves that the sound we hear ATLEAST originated/inspired by sala. im also living in a muslim country (no i cant speak arabic tho) i have friends who never listened this song so i played this song next to them when they heard the sound they didnt think it came from the song they thought it came from outside, from mosque. i believe thay have a reason for this delusion

[92mosess]

@realnextasy "Delusion" fits fine . As i said , it DOES sound like it .. but im pretty sure its not :) .

[anathemadeathopeth]

My favourite song,this song i a part of my.



[metalari1000]

awesome..

[qikone]

this gives me goosebumbs, shivers running down my spine and water to my eyes from the sheer emotional impact of my nostalgia <3

[SymphonicDevourer]

The one person that Disliked this, needs to have their head examined

[dtschacher]

Geilomat.

[BeyondthoughtSs]

epic...incredible song...

[samwhk]

Righteous.

[EssamKelani91]

amaaaaazing master-piece ......... btw, has anyone noticed that there's a sound of Quran being said in the background in the bass solo part ????? plz pay close attention.

[Stfanos04]

@EssamKelani91 do u mean the voice? i dnt think it has to do with any religion..

[realnextasy]

@Stfanos04 it's definetly a sound from Quran mate. Muslims call it 'Sala'. At muslims funeral imams sing this mystical prayer.

[Stfanos04]

@realnextasy i dnt know mate..but i dnt wanna complex Anathema with any religion and pls dont.thank you

[Haxer87]

this is anathema \00/

[hevior666]

PIĘKNO W METALU !!!KURWA MAĆ TEN KLIMAT!!!!!WYJEBISTE!!!! DAREN YOU ARE GOD OF METAL!!!!

[Stfanos04]

@hevior666 thats not darren its vincent..darren left after pentecost

[silveniss94]

It's awesome...

I'm 16 and I've heard it for the 1st time.

It's just beautiful...

I don't know what to say (write xD ) ...

There should be button "Love" .

That sound of guitar in 1:49...

This...

I don't know how to call it...

This howl, whine...

Awesome...

[keramix]

Beautiful music.

[trickrs]

I would cry if I despaired. So beautiful.

[Hunter19781986]

The man ho disliked it probably never had a dying wish...........

[vtecscream]

Great song from Anathema....

[untitledesigner]

@xShadowKRWolfx. Don't get me wrong, this is indeed a great tune/CD/band. Anathema and Moonspell were among my favorite bands back in 95, so the influence of Alma Mater on A dying Wish was rather clear back then.

[ulverX]

BEST ALBUM FROM ANATHEMA, ONE OF THE METAL MASTERPIECE OF ALL TIMES!

[oanathema]

@ulverX AGREE 100%

[NefariousGrime]

One motherfucker thought it was funny to hit dislike.. fuck you!

[Thewobblydickle]

@NefariousGrime Gotta feel sorry for him/her. They must have had a very stifling upbringing. But I defend their right to choose.

[oanathema]

@NefariousGrime I know!!!! God damn bastard!

[IsisNefer]

i doesnt matter what they do: doom metal, rock, alternative, eternal... every thing they do is AMAZING. That's what makes them one of the best band ever.

[untitledesigner]

1:50. Anyone agrees that this is just SO Alma Mater - Moonspell main Riff. Great album, loved it 1000 time a day back in 95.

[NefariousGrime]

@untitledesigner anything moonspell is amazing stuff too

[untitledesigner]

@NefariousGrime It sure is ;) BTW I'm their webmaster since 95 so I couldn't agree more ;)

[Darknulard]

Just by reading the comments, I can see anathema fans are just as deep and sentimental as the band itself. Anathema really has the best fans!

[epp142]

it's been almost fifteen years, (i'm nearly thirtyone), and this song still haunting me............... the favorite song from my favorite band. i doubt that i'll be able to forget it, until i die....

[wajahatkhan]

Man I wish they could make music like this again, I like the current stuff but OMG this is just magic!!! Untouchable!!!

[waldschrat1976]

one of Anathema´s most epic songs.awesome.

[thewyrm666]

listen to alma mater by moonspell... remember it came first...

[turican500]

@thewyrm666

You're right, they really similar. Well, both songs are great!

[gerwin0]

my empireo (?) is so obscure

[Darknulard]

@gerwin0 My empirean is a scar

[Fistwagon]

I haven't heard this in about ten years. These guys had real confidence in their melodies. No shitty guitar solos or complex riffing to take you out of the mood. Way better than I remember.. I gotta dig up this album from the bottom of the darkest, dustiest pits of my CD collection.

[foxracingforever]

suicidal...

[theungforgivable]

"Fallen, am I

In the solitude of a broken promise

...I cried alone"

4:52

[dartagnanv]

I liked the song...

[fatenramini]

Scary scaryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy­yyyyyyyyy

[andrexyz]

O don't know how anathema can make songs that just fit in my life...I would die now for one last wish.

[sojer9996]

to juz 15 lat............

[danitheslayerturk]

can anyone hear the "Sela" (salah)

[mirzarayhan]

@danitheslayerturk .... yeah I can around the 6:30 mark....may just be lyrics sung in reverse...but sure is haunting.

[teaddtable]

@mirzarayhan That is a recording of Azan - Islamic call to prayer

[mirzarayhan]

@teaddtable ,...yeah I know that. But just wasnt sure if it really was azan.

[calastiur]

''Fulfilment lost in a lifetime of regret ''

What an emotional song. Powerful stuff!

[sanandreasization]

Fallen am I,

In solitude of a broken promise

...I cried alone

(4:53)

[slaveofhate]

my favorite song of silent enigma !!!!

[PeteManFU]

This entire album kicks fucking ass.......

[kozzzh]

I bow before Anathema's special ability to dramatically construct their tracks. this is sign of high professionality

[IrvineFFviii]

Pure feeling

[kujbitomika]

you are fucking true, man

[koromonio]

there s nothing to say awesome!

[VampireAkis]

Oh gosh... :( this songs...hurts.

[Skooligan]

I love this song....

[Vakis201177]

pure awesomness!!!!

[giatimepadeueis]

@Vakis201177

sorry, wrong sign. pure awesomness in deed !!

[xAxCxAxIxDx]

their best song......one of the best metal songs I've ever heard!!!

[EnricoB1978]

Definitely their best piece. It's just monumental. It's just more than music , just more than lyrics... a rare example where you can recognize true inspiration and spirit in both music and lyrics for a great performance. Not just a song but a fantastic "romance"....

[emophodze]

@EnricoB1978 i agree, that this is a really good song, but their best? no. crestfallen ep as well as serenades is way better IMHO. btw i think their best album ist pentecost iii. most people would disagree, but i think its their most emotional album. darren whites vocals are stunning. i think its the way he wanted to go with anathema and that he went with the blood divine. the silent enigma is a very good album, but it lacks the extremely charismatic vocals of darren.

[EnricoB1978]

@emophodze I love "Pentecost III", it's really , really amazing stuff. The entire album is a dreaming, mesmerizing, soul-touching masterpiece. Nevertheless I love "The silent enigma" the most. Why ? I can't really say... maybe it's the different sound. I would place "Pentecost III" soon after "The silent enigma" IMHO. "crestfallen" and "serenades" are too different for a comparison, It would be like to compare "Pentecost III" with "A natural disaster". Always IMHO.

[emophodze]

@EnricoB1978 i think we both agree, that this is one of the best metalbands of the early/middle 90s. imho they were slightly better with darren than without, but thats is a question of taste;)

[stonebasse]

@EnricoB1978 so right!!!!!!!!

[oanathema]

@EnricoB1978 I completely agree! I want to get married on this song! It's absolutely perfect! Great instrumental, voice, emotion, crescending tension with an explosive finale, it's COMPLETE! My favorite ANATHEMA song. I can feel it in my blood.

[Honsel666]

@EnricoB1978

I agree 100 percent ;-)

[sofia10]

their best and far my favourite song...no comments...it s juct perfect!!
