Every now and then, mindless YouTube surfing yields MAJOR results. I can't even remember how I got her, but I'm GLAD I DID!! This band FRIKIN' ROCKS!!
03:05 - 03:54 it' s the best vocal part in all Nocturnal Rites songs. This singer have a amazing voice and I prefer him than Bruce Dickinson. I know, this is brave opinion, but NR singer causes that I forget how I am called.
ummm what can i say about nocturnal rites besides the obvious amazingness oh yes they are new to me and already on my top ten he has an amazing voice i just love the guitar with the mini pig squeelz
This guy sounds like he was from queen or something. but yet still is able to make it really metal. This is a good band, just discovered them last night.
@goardface Nice dude! Good thing you were there to jump in and make assumptions about someone's taste because they expressed a difference of opinion! Atleast he was willing to check the band out, thats more than most people will do.
@VonCarnstein Thanks for all of your wisdom "DUDE"! I'm a better person now thanks to you. Next time someone tells me they like the taste of cock,I'll say "Good for you." So jump in on this disnick Aristotle!
there is an other song called still alive, and it is SO diffrent! look up still alive portal then listen to the lyrics cuz unless you played the game its from, its kinda funny.
I've only listened to 8th Sin, this is fucking amazing!! This singer is just so good! No offense to the band, but if they didn't have this singer they'd just be a good band, but Nocturnal Rites are an AMAZING band \m/
can somebody tell why the fuck does people prefer Hammerfall over Nocturnal Rites? It´s because of the label shit... Century Media vs nuclear blast.. or some other shit!! This song kicks ass and ain´t the best of the whole cd. By far SACRED TALISMAN IS THEIR BEST! THOUGH. don´t get my wrong Hammerfall is just great!, but this band deserves more viewers. RESPECT!
@Monolithan666 i think he sounds unique. he has that high pitched noise at the end of each of his words that is usually annoying. but somehow when he does it it's awesome.
I just discovered this band yesterday and I'm already addicted. To those who disliked this video: may you someday be forced to listen to the Jonas Bros non-stop for a week.
my first time i listen Nocturnal Rites was in 2005 or 2006 i dont know exactly ...i see them live 2 times..god damit...they are Awsome...this song is like the songs of Masterplan...or? anyway Rock On
I wonder if the audio got messed up when they made this Music video, you cant even hear the background vocals which are the best parts in the songs, especially the chorus & Out Chorus
@massecure630 absofuckinlutely I cant believe more ppl dont know about them I love all music but I swear these guys n this song make me wana jump up n punch sumthin in the face haha its makes my heart pump n blood rush they fucking rock!!!!! no questions about it
How in the hell did you reach the conclusion that I think the title makes the song? If they have the same title wouldn't I, by that logic, like them all equally? I made the comment at least partly in the hope that people would search for the title and find those songs.
Of course better song is subjective, but I find this song to be mediocre at best, largely because it doesn't do anything that I find creative or original. The other two I mentioned definitely do.
By the way, if you're going to accuse someone of having a weak grasp on the English language you'd better be certain that you are able to understand what they're saying.
Strange, given your name, that you don't get the irony of making an ass of yourself like this. Or, seeing as how you apparently have vastly superior taste, that you fail to make a legitimate point in the process.
You're into Red Hot Chili Peppers, Breaking Benjamin, and probably other similar artists. Not surprised you didn't find anything interesting. Obviously, the progpower metal genre is not for you. It's a great song, IMO. :) NR has an awesome singer. Nocturnal Rites, among other power metal bands, are the few trying to save a fading genre in the U.S. from bands such as the ones you're into. Still Alive baby!
I've always like nocturnal rites. but the classic power metal has always been a bit more apealing. like sonata arctica. stratovarius, helloween, blind guardian. and like obiwanda sayed there are to many power metal bands that sound the same. they one sounded a bit diffirent to me on the CD Afterlife. and that CD is the only reason i started listening to this band.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
More bland power metal. Who said that a good power metal verse consisted of a guy straining for high notes while a drop-tuned guitar strums one powerchord and the drums just chunk away? Power metal bands need to get interesting...all the new power metal bands sound the same. Boring! What the hell happened to stuff like Sonata Arctica? Stratovarius? Fuck, I'd even take Helloween over this weak stuff.
Yeah, you can tell he's not straining for high notes. While I'll agree they don't always have the best composition, these guys are FAR from bad. And there is a band in power metal (well, symphonic power meta) that's good today. Kamelot. You're just overreacting.

Hello there fellow metalheads.
Instead of a Metal rebellion i propose a new plan.
1. Don't bash other metal artists, we need to unite. We cant fight against pop music if we arent even together.
2. Watch more and other metal videos to get it to the top of the youtube vid list
3. Instead of bashing pop, promote metal with logical reasons, not just "METAL RULES!"
If you like this idea, thumbs it up JUST so people can see it, and also spread it around if you like this
