There's quick shredding metal on one side and when you fed up with that there's slow deep metal on the other side like this, yin and yang sides of each thing as we know. This side being Yin or Yang but this goes very deep though we can't tell it simple or elaborated, it goes straight to the core and nothing can't it do better. I can't stop myself listening to it.
i have been listening to these lads for about 3 months now...at first the vocals just seemed ... unnecessary,no offence but i thing the music by itself pretty much does the job...i eventually ended up liking the vocals,even if there's nothing really original or new about them,i just accept them as an instrument that blends just fine to the mix.thums up Amenra,excelent band.
@sheshdd I've known em for like 7 years now (first saw them in 2004 with Morda). I've seen them a few times know, and let me guarantee you. The atmosphere during these shows is amazing. Dark, creepy, intense at one time and flowing the other time. SO GOOD MAN :D
I'm not even a metal fan, but this shit goes deep. A V2 flying bomb going through the sound wall is the best description for this sound. Their live performance is amazing as well.
i literally haven't played another band as much as i've played Amenra for the last 2 year, as soon as I heard them. these guys are just simply perfect. I just wish this video was the full song. Theres never second that can be missed by these guys,
I saw them at Roadburn first time and didn´t knew them. 5 days later i had all their stuff. Saw them a second and last time at Doom Over Bielefeld and will love this sound till the end...
It takes some time to get used to these vocals, but once you get over that, you get to the real taste of this band. Extremely raw, pure, straight, without any bullshit. I would also like to mention the lyrics, which fits their music perfectly, and are fucking awesome anyway :
"And you will never die like I did.
Your fire will always be inside of me.
You will always be a part of me.
The heart of me."
Great band, very unique, definitely worth some time checking out !
When they performed at baroeg that time, crowbar wasn't that intense anymore haha! Serious... I fucking like this band till death! So full of true emotions, so full of intensity! Too hard to find an band who can overrule this!
It's difficult to make such simple riffs that last for so long stay interesting to the listener and these guys are absolutely incredible at it. Cannot get enough, I need more albums!!!!
@miklec666 True... their music is not hard to play. The hard part lies within the atmosphere these guys manage to create. Unmatched by ANY band in Europe. It's Intense, emotional, loud, but also fragile at the same time. And even though they sound evil and dark.. they bring out a positive message. See positiveness in everything.. even in death.
AMEN RA for life... They're more than just music. Everything about this band is just .. right.
Amenra is incredible. In my opinion they're like the GY!BE of Atmospheric Sludge. They have this amazing mystique about them and they're absolutely unique sounding...The vocals are absolutely unmatched in the genre, IMO, and the riffs and atmospheres that the guitarists create are gorgeous. Amazing work from the drummer, too. I'd kill to see these guys live. Hope they come to Canada soon.
@JonThorBirgisson been searching for bands alike with the voice of this one, and some of burzum has it, but still the search keeps going on... amenra is so awesome
last february, i drive 220 miles in a snow storm, show up to Mac's Bar for Amenra and Zoroaster, and they we're there. Got held up at the border. either way, still love these guys, and this video is great. can't wait for another US tour.
I saw them at dour totally unexpected, I just walked towards the music. The were playing this song and I was totally blown away. The singer standing with his back to the crowd and he was like cutting himself in his neck and it was like I could hear his pain in the vocals.
I adore this band. They may not have the power that most Hardcore bands represent, but you can just feel that their work comes straight from the heart.
I was like you at the beginning but they grew on me. They're not the most powerful for sure but they're natural, no inhale/exhale technique, he's really screaming his lungs off and I like that, there's beauty in that "fragility".
@iraedivine13 I disagree, few things are as powerful as this. I feel like all parts of this band are 100%, and not hidden behind some facade of genre or agenda.
love the band, love the song...you ve got a fan. come to portugal. im sad for not going to make it to groezrock to see you guys and a bunch of awesome bands
not rare to have good belgian band.. ppl doesn't know about them that's all.. but if you want more check : Arkangel, Angel crew, Do or Die, Deviate, Kickback (these are french may be) and much more....
Saw them last Wednesday before the Neurosis show in The Netherlands and going to see them in the forthcoming weeks, so strange suggestion that they don't exist anymore ...
They did not stop. Check their website (churchofra), or otherwise the last Neurosis tour. They were their support and this number is from Mass IIII, which is an album from 2008
big misunderstanding, i was talking about Congress, you were talking about amenra :) And yeah, i know they didn't stop, seeing them about once a month XD
do you imagine mudic without amenra? dou you imagine life without amenra? t'imagine la musique sans amnenra? t'imagine la vie sans amenra? imaginas a musica sem amenra? imaginas a vida sem amanera ? eu nao !
So? If you look it that way Mass III was the same as Mass II, and Mass II was the same as Mass. But they really aren't. Only thing they are is great :)
The best christmas song!
