[CronicDisarray]

I get some Devin Townsend vibes from this! :D

[HorrorIllogium]

Bees listen to this.

[engraveddrummer]

@HorrorIllogium YES! At last, someone who thinks bees with this!

[tDeathwingr]

[OdinM1]

[metalmonkey97]

I tryed to show this to my band director hoping to here some music with a "classical" instruement , lets just say im not alowed to request anything in band anymore

[okcomputer1016]

That riff is absolutely insane

[rebirth24]

This is awesome. First time I'm hearding this, and I think I prefer it to The Adversary. lol @ saxophone.

[imperiumdiaboli]

Black Metal Bumblebee!

[jordinyc]

Is John Zorn involved in this at all?

[ROBOGASM]

This is quite possibly the most evil thing I have ever heard!

[jordinyc]

Sax! and also 7th CHORDS! This is marvelous! Bravo!!

[metaldrummer2397]

is that like a basoon playing or like some sort of tenor saxophone

[metaldrummer2397]

@metaldrummer2397 oh its sax it sounds like a basson tho and i fits in well it like a guitar solo but for a saxophone

[spideyfanatic93]

For some reason when I listen to this song I imagine a swarm of locusts just devouring shit. In a good way.

[darthjackass13]

dude. this is insanely brutal

[UhOhRetardAlert]

@darthjackass13

no, its Ihsahnly brutal

[deathriff666]

@UhOhRetardAlert fuck brutal, this is Ihsahnly gim and frost biten!!!

[1989vamos]

this saxo is crazy



[travelinstygian]

THE SAX SOUND IS SO DIRTY BUT SO AWESOME \m/

[stonforcebassbohab]

The 1 person can't play Sax.

[ifrozetodeath]

The saxophone somehow fits so well... how does he do it? Genius.

[RenegadeScion]

The sax almost reminds me of John Zorn and Naked City. But more structured.

[Arioch161]

@RenegadeScion Totally what I thought when I first heard it.

[Drezin86]

@RustinPeace9 Also, check out Unexpect.

[ExpiredWater6201]

AHHH I just got erectile dysfunction but all of this chaos seems to have drawn me back up. Hey 'lil buddy

[CanuckErrant]

Hardcore sax in this song. But where's the graphic violins?

[Javnogrzesznik]

that saxophone kicked my arse!!! masterpiece!

[pussteaser]

@Javnogrzesznik lol me too chea man chea

[666deathghost]

This is the first viideo without some asshole hitting the down voteing thingy

[pussteaser]

@666deathghost dito bra

[RustInPeace9]

This song is absolutely fucking nuts, and I fucking love it. It kind of reminds me of a death metal fucked up Mr. Bungle.

Does anyone know any other kind of music that sounds this crazy, because I would love to hear it.

[Ayunu]

@RustInPeace9 I recommend : Naked City ; if you want something nuts like this. Trashmetal\jazz\grind madness. Which I dig, hard

[gdogg6891]

@RustInPeace9 Check out Sigh.

[ftp76]

This is pretty brutal compared to his last album...schweet.

[Yoevartiv]

great music

[QueenLamia]

This is just great! I'm so glad I picked up this album, it totally blows my mind with every listen.

[dizzydelarge]

Vegard is de facto genius...

[yzdit]

<3 Metal with saxophone.

[musicalkaratekid]

crazy,but brilliant at the same time:)

[trym88]

no spirit left in ihsahn, he only produces shitty music now

[OpethToolMetallica]

@trym88

Coming from a guy who listens to techno bullshit.

Please refrain from commenting nonsense, or if you can't stop doing it, kill yourself.

[WannaBHaxa]

The saxophone is officially metal.

[GrowlingVocals]

the title kicks ass

[EOGS4492]

Saxophones? Metal? Sounds legit.

[BehemothOwns]

What. The. Fuck. Ihsan you be crazy bro. But it's actually good so, kudos, been hoping for someone to implement jazz in a good way into death since I heard Keeping the Cadaver Dogs Busy.

[Heckster75]

Mix of Death and Jazz is nothing new. Check out such bands as Cynic or Atheist...

[deathriff666]

if you dont love this your gay

[AviloriANo1]

Wow.

[Slimebeast]

lol Ihsahn's losing it.

Crazy.

[Kankuro1138]

probably my favorite song on this album. epic sax, also theres a great bit of saxophone on the track 'Undercurrent' another good song.

[ccblapl]

@Kankuro1138 Not to mention on "Heaven's Black Sea". It certainly does make "Bleeding Gums" Murphy relevant again!

[kylekrabiel]

just when you thought it had all been done before! jazz/death fusion!!!! i f#@$%^ love it!!!! what's next? harp techno?

[kylekrabiel]

@kylekrabiel  i hope not!

[DanielZKlein]

@kylekrabiel For Jazz/Death I refer you to Ephel Duath, who've been doing this sort of thing for quite a while now. Never had a saxophone this insane though.

[InFlamesITrust]

@DanielZKlein Actually compared to Jorgen Munkeby's original band this is not that insane tho. SHINING (NOR) took a completely different path but kinda even more of a freak-out.

[Headbanger9000]

@kylekrabiel It's been done before dude. Atheisyt were the first death metal band to mix death metal and jazz. They were also the first technical death metal band

[goatambush]

@Headbanger9000 well you've got naked city, yakuza, and le scrawl that mix jazz and other stuff with grind.

[GoldenBoySwallowSea]

@goatambush well, I do agree with the Yakuza statement, but wold you really consider Naked City in that? I mean, John Zorn's just an avant-garde musician all-around (as well as one of my favorites), and he's pretty much done everything! Plus Absinthe was just dark ambience...

[TheEddyMetal]

This song is amazing. I usually don't like progressive type stuff but this is great. Incredible musician.

[Luukeksi]

Saxomaphoooone....

Saxomaphoooone....

[satyrization]

What a great idea to involve saxophone. Its very progressive, Love his music. Can not to stay clear without hearing it

[Tyroshimo9152]

that riff is insane

[Spiritus3]

I love how they incorporated the saxophone in this. It just increases it's sexiness triple-fold. :O

[tehmusician]

haha, neat...

[ericsyre]

It seems most of you here have little musical understanding of what this guy is doing. Stop sticking to genres and terms invented by journalists to complete their reviews and appreciate music for what it is.

I didn't like his previous solo albums but this one is impressive from many perspective.

[Zakura616]

I didn't know Saxophones could make such dissonant sounds! Maybe it's not as soulful as Bill Clinton likes to make it seem, eh? ;D

[LeM0njui3c3]

i had this trippy ass nightmare the other day and outta nowere this song popped in my head i liked that =)

[torsofuk]

according ti the vocalist himself, it is extreme progressive metal, I like Emperor but I do not agree they are the best BM band, at least not while Dark Funeral is out there

[666deathghost]

tell me this is not blackmetal with jazzy in it dude this sounds good but don't blackmetal if u going to do this do this with metalcore or deathcore

[SmashingTheAntiu]

metalcore? deathcore? hahahahahahahahah

[luke666808g]

and this is the side effect of getting a lobotomy to cure being a faggot.

[stevepwn]

@666deathghost black metal

[666deathghost]

@stevepwn It extreme progressive metal.

[666deathghost]

someone tell me what genre is this

[NoGodsforMe]

@666deathghost Ihsahn plays Extreme Progressive Metal. His music might have some Black Metal references as he is the ex-vocalist of the greatest BM band of all time ;)

[666deathghost]

well fine ok

[subhumanmaster]

@NoGodsforMe ihsahn was never in dimmu borgir,

kidding lol

[LinkinParkHIMFan]

seriously, why is there always some faggot who must say something stupid and starts some sort of argument?

[grimmviper]

Thank you for mentioning that. that is always annoying as hell.

[LinkinParkHIMFan]

i know! some of these pricks need to get impaled.

[grimmviper]

naw.. as brutal as being impaled is i think they should get what they deserve.. they need to get attacked by a dildo...

[toymasheenSH]

is that John Zorn??

[korneye]

It's Jørgen Munkeby from Shining (Norway) and ex Jaga Jazzist ...

[quasarwaves]

i dont understand all these tools who complain about the sax being noisey... have any of you ever heard acid jazz? and why the hell would you look to ihsahn of all people for a clear and consise melody?

[someguitardude]

" a grave inversed"

hmm, if you play it in reverse, the noise sax might sound like a real melody

[ElrichBros1992]

Hey, genius. Why don't you try and play this backwards. ouY kcuF

[someguitardude]

@ElrichBros1992

ti ekil leef tnod i

[ElrichBros1992]

Touche...

[ElrichBros1992]

Am I the only one hearing Strapping Young Lad here? I just found out about this band and I'm hooked. I should have known that the lead singer of emperor would come out with something so progressive and bad ass

[seb2112]

Definite SYL influences on this track

[monkeytube138]

@ElrichBros1992 It's funny, when I listen to "Imperial" by SYL, I always think of Emperor.

[ebronson1]

Never heard these guys before, all I can say is badass.

[MattiLainen1337]

Holy fucking shit! This album will kill o_O

[Schuldiner1982]

Wait... was that Tim Capello?

[savinisbitch]

Oh my god i came

[IronGuitarist]

Unexpected saxophone is unexpected.

AND FUCKING BR00TALLLLZZZZ

[LordRumpusaurus]

This is the first time a saxophone has melted my face off.

[demoncleaner80]

@LordRumpusaurus Only other time I can think of that happening is the first part of "Carry Stress in the Jaw" by Mr. Bungle

[Axewing]

@demoncleaner80 Yes! glad someone else notices this :D

[Jackzill4]

Try "Sick Boogie Murder" by Trepalium

[LordRumpusaurus]

That's my favorite Trepalium song behind Inner Hell... so I guess this is the second time a sax has melted my face off.

So glad someone else knows Trepalium!

[Jackzill4]

Haha, same here, same here.

And yeah, I'm glad too :)

Have you heard of Gojira?

[LordRumpusaurus]

I have heard Gojira, but they kind of bored me. Gorod is a really good French band though.

[OWNS92]

YESSSSS INTENSE I LOVE IT

[deadbabyfingers]

Wow this song is so weird ihsahn's getting all noise rockish, gotta go pick this album up

[someguitardude]

@deadbabyfingers

noise is good lol

[maddearth]

what an incredable album

[wibblegorm]

Probably the best record Ihsahn has put out, period.

[blastitwithpiss]

I love it! That sax is obnoxious! (in the best way possible)

[Gabow666]

that saxophone is killer.

[omgjuliansonthetube]

@Gabow666 i thought it was a kazoo xD

[abbath1586]

When is this album offically coming out?

[maddearth]

@abbath1586 it should be out this Monday :]

[Piratcykel]

Tomorrow

[kmahl35]

AMAZIIIIIING !!!!! HOLY FUCKKK!!!

[skatergoth]

SUPER FUCKING AWESOME!!!!!

[Thorvandal]

OH YEAH I JIZZED IN MY PANTS !!!!
