Fractal Gates - Skies Of Orion

[FractalGates]

Back on the road again, next week will be the time for us to finish the writting of a new Altered State of Consciousness, a new melodic state of mind...

...Stars are aligned, shining as one, reflecting on the mirror of our senses.

[lonestarw0lf]

i took a piss to this song

[ritniis]

I like how there are more species of metal then all other forms of music as a group.

Yes, I said species, because Metal is a fucking bitch of an animal we can't control.

[toncarmelo]

The guitar riff sounds like If I could fly from Helloween

[sebdoom]

@toncarmelo Haha indeed, never heard this Helloween song before, quite funny how exact same ideas come from different minds sometimes.

[Dark89Tranquillity]

i like it...

[Aliennnaa]

french should be pround of this band .. coz actually they dont have great melodeath bands ;)

[TheExhumedScourges]

Proud to be French ! But that's so bad to live in a country so closed to Metal...

Because of that, people are listening to mainstream music and maybe they will never discover that Metal is not related to Satan, not necessarily what they call "noise", but can also be beautiful, melodic and soothing.

We don't want to hear 10 hours of metal a day, but we only want TVs and Radios broadcasting something like one hour of two. Even Rap has his "Top 50" and themed Radios... Why not Metal ?

[MortalDoudou]

@TheExhumedScourges

As a french, I can only agree with you...

Longue vie au Metal !

[MeloDeathInfinite]

MeloDeath Forever!!

[Vo1dOfHope]

\m/ [>_<] \m/

[jerryspringerfu2]

Best band name ever?

[lmaiesfo]

@Kanine11 fuck you these are awesome genres not our fault emo's took over them.

[SickeninglyILL]

@Kanine11 or extremely tight pants with fringe cuts

[HenacT]

This is...beautiful, and that's coming from a dude,

[wildfrost]

Its something about this song, can't put my finger on what it is, the guitar is so unique!

[tearsangelz]

they are the freakin' god

[FractalGates]

Thanks for your comments guys. Just to answer a remanent question: the album title is not about the band Mors Principum Est, in fact we discovered this band only after the album recording. An Altered State of Consciousness can be various states of mind when experiencing hypnosis, trance, meditation, near death experience... This last one is the reason of our album title. Greetings,

//Seb - FG

@FractalGates

Très sincèrement, on ne peut pas dire que je sois quelqu'un de particulièrement fier de mon pays, vraiment. Mais vous m'avez donné une raison de l'être, bravo, je suis sincère!!!

[sebdoom]

@AigreSonge Ca fait toujours plaisir à lire, merci!

[vinny4689]

@FractalGates

Excellent! Très bon death metal melodic!

Dommage que vous ne soyez pas plus populaire, je peux toujours espérer de vous voir un jour à Montréal par contre!

[DeathToRealMetal]

@FractalGates you guys write great music.I love the melodies.

[lukarelli11]

Melodic Death Metal is the best genre of metal. Period.

[kishkabob3721]

Altered State of Consciousness = being high

[NachoNinja]

Reminds me of the intro in soilworker's song of the damned, the chorus for this. Though not as good :P

[websiteboy]

long live melodic death metal

[CarnalRemains]

good song

[sweetsongman1]

wow didn't think france was the kinda country to have music like this. funyn thing you can almost never tell the singers national origin in melodic death metal

[negroriginal]

@sweetsongman1 Really try Gojira if you already don't know it.

Search for: Gojira - Embrace the world (epic song)

[Maddlord4]

@sweetsongman1 france has a some of the best bands.

[mutilatedbaby]

love this band very original

[grimm460]

devildriver was my favorite band now this one is

[hellraidzor]

Compared to daylight dies, it has more rythm. Compared to paradise lost, it has more soul. I can say they are very good. If they can keep up this, they will be great band in a few years. But they need to not rely on computer this much, look at in flames' lunar strain, hardly there is a computer work thus its more progressive unintentionally making it far superior. It is their legend album. Computers make our lives easier, but it defiles the real old school melodic death metal.

[PerturbatedBoy]

so fucking great!!!! fuck hip-hop

[CrpzGrndrKrnx]

Awesome melodies, awesome rythm, awesome scream. Love this band!

[headbAngrl]

this one's awesome too!!! :)

[Animefreak10391]

anyone have lyrics?

[endofdays89]

such a beautiful song.

[benelijah12]

so damn beautiful

[jinsbae]

perfect vocals for melodeath=sounds like early eternal oath

[Vannius6]

nobody hears a touch of paradise lost in this band?

[jinsbae]

a touch of early paradise lost? definitely

[Vannius6]

nice, good to see im not the only one ;).

[amicrazi]

This shit is fucking beast as hell

[gyrate]

lol!

[inphiknitfractal]

check out my channel + vids if you wanna know what these guys are tlaking about ;)

[PrickledMantis]

wow thanks for broadening my taste in metal your generosity is greatly appreciated

[Shagrathdark]

what the hell's going on here!! god damn!! that's called melodic death..not fuckin' rock 'n roll and this band it is fuckin' awesome realy....good melo and good vocalist ...keep it on...

[ulfsweetshadow]

I'm surprised they're French ! melodeath is rare in France, but we have good death ( gojira, destinity..)

[sweetsongman1]

jalladan i fu can hear me, nicce choice. this song is BADASS.

[tassidar86]

they should remove the death part from their genre an kick the singer. Totally doesnt fit.

[bac733]

Yes it does. It's a well fit for this type of music. If you don't like it, don't listen to it. Simple enough.

[tassidar86]

fair enough, i just think it would be better without the screamer like so much more metal would be.

[freeridelifedotnet]

then get out of the whole dm/bm scene. There is plenty of it. Sorry but this music wouldn't be the same without the vocals how they are. It would be uhhh... like all that other poser crap 80's style death metal. God I hate that crap. If I were to listen to stuff like that I'd just stay with motley crue.

[nilzardo]

No. The vocalist fits the song perfectly. This isn't even a matter of opinion lol.

[tassidar86]

@nilzardo and opinion is "a personal view, attitude, or appraisal." I am saying that i really like the instrumental ok. end of story. forget the vocals.

[bud389]

eh, the vocalist could've been better.

[N00bicHairz]

hey asshat, the genre is METAL. If you don't like death vocals, go listen to rock or some other pussy shit. Maybe like some disturbed or dragonforce, that's about your caliber of music.

[N00bicHairz]

No they don't, you're just musically handicapped and are unable to appreciate them because of.

[animelover1971]

About fucking time the French did something right. =D

[xBurzurkurx]

You can call this whatever you'd like. Metal, Hip Hop, Country, regardless what it is, IT IS FUCKING AWESOME. Thought I wouldn't reccomend calling it Hip Hop if you don't like your face getting kicked in =P

[bce5150]

oabbasi is the shit

[prophecykiller]

Great song good band... i never thought i would see the day where there was both a good metal band from france and that i would like them.

[metalofdamasses]

gojira?

[prophecykiller]

Honestly i saw them live I do like them live but not recorded = /

[DARKmissful]

cool as shit!! reminds me of another awesome band daylight dies

[oldlegion]

thx oabbasi , for the other band in my list^^

[sambouette]

excellent groupe de death melodic!

j'espère vous aller venir faire une tournée en amérique du nord ( québec ou montreal)

[Alberthundergod666]

Can anyone tell me if there are some limits to the heavy metal ????because I dont think so!!!!!

[ShadowFireMario666]

Melodic Death Metal, dude.

[speedfreak18ish]

no, especially melodic death metal, its the best genre of all music, we should all proud to be Melodic Death Metal heads

[killface6789]

@speedfreak18ish now thats the truth, Melodic Death Metal till the day I die and even after

[MrMino503]

@speedfreak18ish death melodic have complete members (good guitar players and drummer....) you can't find a good death melodic band with a member who sucks...

[prophecykiller]

With over 2000 genres.... there is NO limit! Never run out of good metal... unless your computer dies

[nilzardo]

there aren't 2000 genres... dur durr durr....

[xdeadstarpsyclonx]

@Alberthundergod666 unfortunately [death/gore]grind the the physical limit or metal on acoustic instruments... until someone makes something even harder >]

[AceBean27]

@Alberthundergod666 I believe there's an expirement underway to find them in Finland at the moment

[PBSisBAD]

@Alberthundergod666 NO LIMITS!

That's the fuckin' spirit of not just MDM, not just metal, but of ROCK!

LONG LIVE ROCK!

LONG LIVE METAL!

LONG LIVE MDM!

[DeathMetalTim32]

@Alberthundergod666 The only limit is when you set the limits for yourself.

[daymarre]

Great song :P

[BumbleBeeTuba]

That song was bad ass.

[treeofpain1]

How about not .Not everyone lives where there is acess to cable internet but we like music too. Some people are just spoiled and dont realize how lucky they are.

[SpeedStrid]

Its not a restriction, its another option.

[Chainsaw20x7]

i dont live where i can have cable internet, i dont think its a big enough deal to bitch about

[FractalZero]

[MattHutzell]

[xhealmyhartx]
