We need more shitcore kids to dislike this song. No better proof that this is the way real heavy metal should be played. Them liking it would be a bad bad sign
I really hate how Portrait and In Solitude get nothing but a Mercyful Fate sound-alike rep. They're different bands, man. Yeah, the MF influence is there, but where ISN'T it in good metal?
@kosdpthess Go back to tend your floppy fringe, coretard. Just because you want to listen to a bunch of angsty overgrown teenagers with stupid tatoos and ear gouges moan about how miserable they are, doesn't mean we havbe to as well.
@Distortedrealms ''Real Metal heads''?? why does everyone talk bad about 2010 - 2011 Metal? they are still good bands coming out, Vektor, Warbringer, Havok, White Wizard the list goes on... Trues Metal Heads doesnt exist ok theyre just different opinions and likes
@Distortedrealms FINALLY someone gets it! Thank you!*7months late i know* but god damn it it's nice to find someone that gets it.*now to find glasnot16's comment*
@glasnot16 Yeah, singing and technical guitarwork is so last century! Gargling verses, croony autotuned choruses, generic breakdowns, lyrics about being bullied at school and floppy fringes are the future of metal!
@glasnot16 Well in the 80's we managed to produce some of the most lyrically talented and vocally singers, amazingly talented guitarists, straight up impossible drummers, technically gifted bassist of all time. Some of the most universally meaningful and profound music of all time.
@glasnot16 I'm ashamed to be a metalhead of my generation with how much damage we've done to metal, this is our redemption and don't you DARE suggest any of you're mainstream bubblegum metal bullshit is better than what's happening right now.
This is freakin' awesome! To me it sounds like Iron Maiden in their prime, mixed with early Metal Church and Savatage. Great musicianship...seriously tight.
PORTRAIT are back to twist my mind, darken my soul and make me scream like a Banshee! It's like "Mellissa"-era MERCYFUL FATE crossed with "Number of the Beast"-era IRON MAIDEN with a bit of JUDAS PRIEST and ACCEPT thrown in for good measure....only fresh, NEW and exciting! Superb stuff-keep up the good work!
I´m just saying my opinion, if you like this shit, good for you. ;)
Portrait can kiss asses of Primal Fear, Metallium, Savage Messiah.
And Nickelback. LOL
