TIAMAT - Brighter Than The Sun (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

[pontus515]

Meanwhile in Sweden....

[MegaCriswell]

great album, i dont mind metal bands experimenting with new sounds but as long as they stay heavy.this album is very rockin'!

[delaseoul87]

I found this on an old mix from high school and didn't even know what it was (thanks Shazam). Anyone know if this song was ever in a movie soundtrack or TV show? I just can't remember where I came across it. I've never listened to this, so it's really annoying me trying to figure out how I stumbled across them. Thanks to anyone in advance!

[PORKMEATSANDWICH]

my buddy played this song at work today and triggered so much in me. love the sisters of mercy. the cure and tool and now tiamat consumes me as well. dig a little deeper and my swedish roots vibrate with each song i hear. cheers to all

[furio1000]

how i love the chorusss...

[kaari]

and whose the bitch???

[kaari]

:O he's bald! he used to have nice long blonde hair!

[fishyfingersparty]

Love the video and the song.

[kultainen59]

it's not 1994 but 1999, they call it "official video" they better check the dicography first

[aceb0mb]

My favourite dance club in Toronto played this one night. It made me SO happy :)

[Cherrypoppins18]

Dude looks like fucking voldemort

[labarucha]

Now that's a corrida I'd love to watch and listen! :)

[TheEternit]

SHE I HI :(

[TheQuantumGirl]

It's been so much time I didn't hear this song. Made my day!

[Shraczka]

Good song. Sounds like a tribute for The Sisters of Mercy.

[HeartInChains258]

@Shraczka You're so right! I thought the same the first time I listened to it.

[iceddust69]

its ok. Def not as good as some of their other shit

[flatfootBJ]

Dirty sexy music!!!!



[zsofire75]

1999

[lenka0378]

[tarantella212]

[rocksolya]

This song is ..waaaaah (L)

[DeSeGas]

[DJONI5000]

отличная песня и клип!

[lenka0378]

I Love allure of this video very nice and dark and gives me speed for each moments of my life...

[jonnythesmilingcat]

@lenka0378 Thats....more or less what i was going o say....

[lenka0378]

@jonnythesmilingcat rahther more... but life sometimes is so strange if you know what I mean

[jonnythesmilingcat]

@lenka0378 I've got the lyrics to "Church of Tiamat" tattooed down the length of my right forearm. So...I think I know what you mean, maybe? Thanks for sympathizing either way. Even if you and I are just a strangers over the internet, probably worlds removed from each other. It's good to know that ideas and feelings are impervious to those kind of concieved boundaries...I hope that Tiamat is around for years to come...Thanks for being a fellow fan...we seem few and far between...

[jonnythesmilingcat]

Didn't mean that to sound so fucking smug...by the way.  I didn't realize that it did until after I had posted it.. sorry...

[anthilation00dozey]

0:46

I spend all day with speaking to corpse.

[mengele47]

I am almost certain that she is Andrea Schwarz or Nicole Bolley.

[AsiDie888]

Whats the name of the female singer?

[psychoninja911]

What does this song mean?

[gabe24999]

I was looking for a happy, joyful song I heard in the radio, but YouTube had to give me this. Woah.

[GuziorTube]

"Skeleton Skeletron" was released in 1999 not 1994

[mooseasaurusrex]

Music is my medicine.

And I'm addicted to this video. 

[kialn]

BRIGHTER THAN THE SUN this videos a bit ironic!! why doesn't everybody search callie colbit brighter than the sun XD

[yleisjakkaralemmikki]

Feels like a heatwave

[greek5690]

Tiamat and this song are brighter than sun!

[animemangafreak2609]

I LOVE THIS SONG AND THIS BAND

5 Stars from me

[JonnyWanker]

[lalaguma]

[MrWalpole2]

get out of the way of the truck you idiot

[Winterbraid]

@MrWalpole2 But that would be un-metal

[TheEternit]

coś mu odjebało i wygasło najlepsze przy okazji.

[bknif]

I keep trying to give their more modern music a chance, but have yet to find a song of worth

[erdigoceri]

watch?v=jcDKE_qLCk8

[leaveblank]

does anyone know who is SHE??

[szultz]

@leaveblank

Shé brings hope. Shé rights the wrongs. Unfortunately, Shé is a myth.

[leaveblank]

@szultz awesome, thanks! :) I was asking about her name, lol

[Modern4ngel]

@leaveblank Nicole Bolley

[leaveblank]

@Modern4ngel ahhhh Thank You! :)

[AlexxandarJ]

Thumbs up if you too want to drive that dumper truck.

[tofthetrinity]

wasn't she barefoot while driving? Wjn did she put her shoes on at the end\?

[Goreland666]

Tiamat confirmed for Vagos Open Air - Portugal

Please "like" us at Facebook

VAGOS OPEN AIR

[EnorusLoL]

Fy fan vad bra! I wish I would had discovered this album earlier!! Instant favorite.

[rigoromortis]

Oh, and @Lurkinginshadow - the key phrase is "statistical distribution"... you might want to look into who ELSE is in your assigned category, even though you yourself might prove to be an exception.

[rigoromortis]

Can you people stop categorizing? Who the hell cares if you think it's "goth metal" or "black metal" or whatever else? At what point does this all cease to be relevant? And who exactly cares that you like "old" or "new" songs from Tiamat, or whether or not they "used to" be something or not? Can people not stick to opinions like "I like this because..." or "I don't like this because..." instead of making themselves up to be music critics?

[skurch83]

Century Media 1994 ?? More like 1999 :)

Great song! Skeleton Skeletron is my favourite Tiamat's album. After almost 12 years I can't stop listening it and I am never bored with it. Absolute brilliance!

[iceddust69]

not impressed with this song. Wildhoney songs are way better but i guess you can't always have a masterpiece of an album

[djDiagOnfly]

brilliant example of alternative bullfight!

[foREVer66611]

does he not look like the bad guy from the harry potter movies? HAHA

[MATEOTL86]

GREAT SONG - - sisters of mercy influence is TOTALLY obvious! The entire album however, is UTTERLY AMAZING

[BaronVonPwn]

maybe this is just a thought. but i feel this is more gothic rock. true goth.kinda mellow and easy to listen to. but dark. kinda like she wants revenge. its not heavy at all, but i like. reminds me of the older vampire movies like from dusk til dawn, and blade.

[Tie4821]

what the fuck. it is hardcore. i thought they are death metal.

[regresseur]

@Tie4821 naw, they were doom metal - slow and heavy. then they turned into serious crap, like the above. see their older stuff in "whatever that hurts" and "sleeping beauty" if you haven't already.

[Magician12345]

my band does disco metal

[DirtyDishSoap]

Tiamat is doom metal. Or Gothic. Whatever.

[agares55]

it´s incredible this was my life, the same girl and me, the same look of them were us, the same life, i can´t believe it

[TeehpodT]

sounds like a Sisters of Mercy rip-off

[epulash]

tiamat nerdcore forever

[UnPaTh]

they're doom metal!

[Priscillatrindade1]

Show!

[metroretrokicks]

I thought Tiamat is black metal

[darkgothicdude74]

@metroretrokicks dude there not black metal there gothic metal

[zant741]

Reminds me of a swedish version of Sister's of Mercy--they even have thier own Patricia Morrison!

[Constantine3]

Like these guys. Kind of a modern Duran Duran feel. Sort of Duran Duran meets A Perfect Circle.

[xukaro3]

that kind of swedish bitches listen to this song and found it sexy need to get fucked by some latino male!!

[TheMotogavlas84]

@xukaro3

What do latino have more than others.

[kiskismiau]

sexiest song ever ...

[IfIGoWillYouFollow]

Вот девушки и женщины, если умеете так петь, как она, то мужчина ваш. :)

[ThornUvDaath777]

I think this is about changing for the better, IF we want: he begins by saying "we could run in the garden of eden" and later "you could have anything if you jsut give it back" suggesting anarcho communism, a concept not unknown in the so called "old testament " (though I'm certain Tiamat would revile sucha view if they knew) with a  chorus of "will you settle for the bull's run...fire of the handgun" the current state of violence and cruelty. He's also bullfightinga symbol of industrailism.

[MrBeerbug]

@ThornUvDaath777 Satanism and luciferianism has adopted a great deal of concepts from the old testament of the bible. A good example is "An eye for an eye".

[bon88ify]

my GOD!!!!!

[EpicFail345]

@jayagmon It really does sound like SOM dosen't it, and that is a very good thing!

[MrBeerbug]

@jayagmon I just checked those songs out and got on an amazing musical journey. The SOM seems to have influenced a lot of great bands such as for instance Type O negative.

Thanks for sharing.

[Rock208hurricane1]

@jayagmon

The song is amazing even if there are influences.

[rushko75]

@jayagmon QFT!

[alemetal5]

Love Tiamat!!!

[bravo075]

Dude, this guy shaved his head and somehow looks scarier.

[mudriden]

yo yo yo bitchezz, tiamat in da houz bitchez, muvafukka 4live!

[cavaderous]

fantastic...

[808thampire]

yeah nigga! dis song is sik wid it

[2livenletdie]

Never heard of TIAMAT until now. Reminds me of The Sisters of Mercy.

[uglyguido]

@2livenletdie Their older stuff isn't. First album is Black Metal.

[jameshetfieldfan15]

oh. Hitman:D

[mcg413]

Who's that chick in the vid?

[Necrop0lis]

@mcg413 Birgit Zacher

[mcg413]

@Necrop0lis Never heard of her, but searching on Wikipedia, she looks like she does know how to do gothic metal.

[PrincipeDelMale4]

@Necrop0lis

The woman in the video is not Birgit Zacher, she's just a model taken for that part.

Birgit Zacher is definitely less attractive..

[Necrop0lis]

@PrincipeDelMale4 oh. sry for the misinformation xD. i thought she would be the same one singing

[PrincipeDelMale4]

@Necrop0lis Hi, no problem.

It seems like you can find only one picture of Birgit Zacher, if you "google" her..

You find that picture in black and white.

To me she's another person, though I might be wrong...?

[Necrop0lis]

@PrincipeDelMale4 No, i think you are right. And if this blonde chick was the singer they would show her singing too, i guess

[MetalMessiah1219]

ive often wondered where does she get the shoes later in the vid? were they hiding up in the visor? glove compartment? fell from the sky, but was edited out later?

[syarzhuk]

This is the best The Sisters of Mercy song that Andrew Eldritch didn't write

[ForwardN2Unknown]

@syarzhuk I was just thinking the same thing. Except Andrew Eldritch couldn't do that bit in the video and keep a straight face.

[megamanthehitman]

xD I thought she said were german

[canuma100]

First time ever listen to tiamat, GREAT music. Very rock n Rolly Cool style. I LIKE IT!

[stevenganza]

who's the girl in the video? she looks familliar to me

[Jaxon6945]

Holy 'trying to be Sisters of Mercy' batman!!!

[MizzTomKaulitZ]

I love tiamat ! and i hate my youtube name :/ it´s old !

[somethingclever2007]

cool video. shitty song.

[MrTasos76]

very good!!

[jessykarma]

Love it. :)

[stachukrak]

przypomina mi "sisters of mercy"

podoba mi się

tiamat OK

[Jary2]

Cannot agree more with you, Greets from México

[arudresa]

tiamat started as a great rock band. and it ended as an imitation of blue system.Who is blue system?lol

idd...

[dudewhosaysarrh]

@arudresa actually they started as a black metal band under the name of "Treblinka", but finally Johan Edlund came to his senses, renamed the band and expanded its musical spectrum to encompass gothic, rock and progressive elements.

[josephdangelomusic]

do a search on joe dangelo "you used to be" or "lust over love"

[josephdangelomusic]

if you like this check out joe dangelo

[FrightfulAccountant]

I liked him more with his long hair, but no bad word about the sound he put down with this album. ;)

[videoeditare]

agree...



[siewen1]

i love this band! awesome

[NiePrzystosowana]

KOCHAM !!!

[notaMONSTERbutaDEVIL]

@ChannelxxAUSTRIAxx01  lol you're right!!!!!!!

[ElistanTristanwick]

@ChannelxxAUSTRIAxx01

lol!!!!! man, i have done the same thing and you are indeed right

[VengeancePuppy]

@ChannelxxAUSTRIAxx01 "Dis song is da bomb....yo"

[Fucker21406]

Heh, indeed.



[eagle07304]

@ChannelxxAUSTRIAxx01 Yes! I agree with you! "Stupid music for stupid people...."

[pumista64]

@ChannelxxAUSTRIAxx01 True man..at least most of us here can actually type rather d3n r1t3 LiK3 DiS...its annoying when most people write like that because its just like "wtf are you saying!?"

[megamanthehitman]

@ChannelxxAUSTRIAxx01 The enemy is also pop xD dumb gaga and bieber

[ChannelxxAUSTRIAxx01]

@megamanthehitman

"The Enemy"?

What do you mean?

I actually meant the stupid mainstream shit like Soulja Boy and this brainless crap with my comment. :-)

[megamanthehitman]

@ChannelxxAUSTRIAxx01 wow you don't think lady gaga and bieber are mainstream?

[ChannelxxAUSTRIAxx01]

@megamanthehitman

I just dont mentioned Lady Gaga and and Justin Bieber because they are mentioned in 70% of all Metal and Rock videos how gay and shitty they are.

Everybody knows that they are the stupidest thing what happened to the music today.

[megamanthehitman]

@ChannelxxAUSTRIAxx01 lol that is all to true

[taikogroove]

@ChannelxxAUSTRIAxx01 Nah.. we can be pretty stupid too. Don't flatter yourself... and also this is not metal

[doublexjay]

@ChannelxxAUSTRIAxx01 this is one of the intelligent comment on a metal video =)

i thought i was the only one seeing that... there was even a research that human intelligence is based on the genre of music one is listening to... if i'm remembering correctly it was: classic was on the top, little below was metal, rock and alike... on the bottom was hip-hop, rave, techno and souch...

food for thought ^^

[55grainFMJ]

@doublexjay

That's pretty fucking clever coming from someone who can't spell -such-

[doublexjay]

@55grainFMJ i'd like to see you spell in slovene

[Lurkinginshadow]

@doublexjay please present a link and your school and college GPA's and SAT scores. And let's compare to poor me listening to my stupid bad techno.

[einsoff]

@doublexjay I'm listening to quite a lot genres of music from Jesualdo to Sixtoo (and some metal of course though i have to admit pretty much of metal music is actually more repetitive crap played by virtuosos than most of commercial house played by dilettantes) i guess that makes me a genius then or maybe an ape?

[notaMONSTERbutaDEVIL]

@einsoff no, it makes you an elephant =3

[einsoff]

@notaMONSTERbutaDEVIL hahahah nice one mate :)

[blackree]

@doublexjay where did you read this?

i know its true but have intrested to read about it :)

[dogtired82]

@doublexjay

I'd argue with this statement. Perhaps emotional intelligence, but I know super-clever guys who listen to the stupidest pop/techno songs in the world! :)

[mooseasaurusrex]

@dogtired82 Why'd you have to bring me up? `;}>

[mycommentsalwaystrue]

@ChannelxxAUSTRIAxx01 gangsta 4 life cracker ass mofo u aint no gonna talk shit bout no rap Iz gonna pop yo ass respect G blood money

[twojastaraipies]

@mycommentsalwaystrue

?

[mycommentsalwaystrue]

@twojastaraipies I hope ur dad rapes u in the ass with his HUGE black cock u piece of shit nazi

[twojastaraipies]

@mycommentsalwaystrue

I had real problems understanding what you had written. now you've explained pretty much everything.

[mycommentsalwaystrue]

@twojastaraipies I had real problems ramming my HUGE black dong down ur moms tight asshole u nazi son of a bitch

[soulvlack]

@ChannelxxAUSTRIAxx01 I want to see a scientific study for that, It could make a great collage theses. as for my comment on the video. being a matador its self take guts but doing it with dump trucks that either ballsy or stupid or both, great song either way.

[mcg413]

@ChannelxxAUSTRIAxx01 Yes it is. Today's hip-hop is stupid as shit, and only very rarely do you find one modern mainstream hip-hop that isn't retarded. I haven't found on yet, nor do I care. I'll tell when I've found one.

[justjooniin]

I just watched Sisters Of Mercy's - Lucretia My Reflection and somehow remembered this song, wich I haven't heard in years. Am I the only one that finds similarities between these two? You know, singers voice, imagery, tempo etc. Anyway, they're both great songs.

[xxRefuse]

@justjooniin I dind't noticed it myself, but.. It kind of sound similar. both songs are pretty good..^^

[ThreeNumbersOfMine]

@justjooniin You're right. When I've heard this song first what I thought about was Sisters Of Mercy's 'Lucretia My Reflection'

[FrightfulAccountant]

@justjooniin

Uhu, I hear it to.

I think is is a slight matter of influence (from this album on, Tiamat evolved more into a 'nearly gothrock' sound and I do think Eldritch is a big influence for many of the later Tiamat work.

And ofcourse...

Everybody listens to everybody, thus simularities inbetween song are innevidable. :p

Well, since Steele is gone, I think Tiamat is my favourit still active goth metal band. :p

[justjooniin]

@FrightfulAccountant

Well put, my friend.

[ilovedpiano]

temazo!

[blekdood]

tiamat early work sounded like death and a bit trash.. but now they sounded like gothic a bit.. like HIM.. cmiiw though.. thats only my opinion

[MorrinWellSmith]

@blekdood him is gay....there is nothing gay in Tiamat..

And yeah there were and still are goth.

[InSuchSkull]

These guys should cover Christian Death - Church of no Return.

[notaMONSTERbutaDEVIL]

this one and cain are the best,,, dont they have more songs like this?

[pashmpoosh]

@notaMONSTERbutaDEVIL Get their album called `A deeper kind of slumber`` It`s one of my favorite albums of all time.

[gaes4181]

This sounds like grandpa Rockn Rolla a la Stones. I thought this band was hardcore???

These guys are no more hardcore than Rick Astly

[ProjectMaelstrom]

Tiamat hardcore?!?!?!?! from when because I know them from 1995 and they never was hardcore.....

[mcg413]

@ProjectMaelstrom Who said that they were hardcore? I wanna know.

[Tigrousauteur]

@ProjectMaelstrom Well, that's news to me too ^^

[albsteeler]

@ProjectMaelstrom This is progressive metal not hardcore...

[TheMotogavlas84]

@albsteeler

Progressive??? hahahahahaha
