UNIVERSUM - "SUM OF THE UNIVERSE" (Feat. Christian Alvestam) - Mortuus Machina

[Angeal1111]

One of the best Melodeath bands out there... Its a shame that they arent better known...

[Typhux]

nice song, but chorus sucks, never mix death metal voice with a melodic one... never.

[ShowtimeD]

@Typhux u`re narrowminded bigot:) gtfo

[IIcoolbeans420II]

@Typhux i strongly disagree sir the chorus is awesome with the song

[KLKUser]

@Typhux I must also respectfully disagree. There are no laws in metal. How can the mind "justify" what the ears are hearing. Just "listen" to the song and you might find that without the unnecessary analysis: your ears are experiencing the "Sum of great musicianship". Cheers!

[Angeal1111]

@Typhux I don't know man, I think it sounds pretty damn good

[chemical666vis]

Please come to Germany!!

[jbmetalhead]

you have gained a fan boys. congrats on the great sound!

[Symo2007Au]

Adelaide Pride!!!!

[TriviumSweden]

the original singer of Universum is a beast! christian is awesome too!

[theraque1]

I'm actually sitting with their drummer right now at work. Mortuus Machina, yes it does translate to Dead Machine, but in context it means "the killing machine".

[ABitterPlague]

Not to sound like moron who doesn't know anything but Christian Alvestam is the guy who used to be in Scar Symmetry, right?

Fucking gooood song/band that I wish I'd found sooner than just now

[Rethgore]

@ABitterPlague Christian is indeed the former vocalist of Scar Symmetry, Currently in "Solution .45" and "Miseration" - as well as multiple other projects :)

[whitesoftheireyes]

Hey guys, its Sheri Vengeance here. I'm a bit late with this but just letting you know this is a killer track and the vocal work is amazing. Hopefully i get to catch you in your element soon :)

[gloguros]

Christian is the best of the best !!!

[nymetalhead1989]

Duet with vocalists from both amazing bands, universum and scar symmetry!

[LanLanW]

@nymetalhead1989 dont forget the epic guitaring of ex soilwork guitarist ola frenning

[uchihabel]

HERMOSO.!! es fantástica la voz de Christian, siempre combina con cualquier banda.!! <3

[polarbear1110]

You guys got some really bad reviews I really cant understand it, you are together with Fractal Gates and Belakor one of the best new bands. Only thing that needs improvement is the production, I can barely hear the guitars and the bass.

[Gindelbi]

@polarbear1110

Buy the album instead of downloading it illegally then. :P

[Jasonater1]

CHRISTIAN FUCKING ALVESTAM \m/

[jonhourigan]

Wow this is aussie melodeath at its best this kicks ass

[OhNoItsaCounterTroll]

Two people hit the dislike button, and got sucked into black holes. Good riddance.

[GrowlsareBeautiful]

when is the release in germany? i can´t wait to get this fuckin epic CD

Greetz from Germany

[dicamillo686]

No joke, when it reached to the solo at 1:37, i've heard the first note and i instantly knew it was Marios from Nightrage playing it. Such a unique sound! This song is tits!

[DamageInc0rparat3d]

This took forever to release... WHYYYYY D:<

[lars551]

@DamageInc0rparat3d think for yourself, their bassist left without finishing the lines, so they delayed the entire thing to find a bassist. go figure

[MsMaddog81]

who are the two Douchebags that gave thumbs down?? They have taste in their arses!!!!! This is awesome!!!

[eleihtg]

Is it just me or does their vocalist really remind you of Bjorn Strid? Not Christian, the other guy.

[DamageInc0rparat3d]

They both have fairly similar voices. But the main growling vocals are not done by Christian, only the cleans and the low low growls in the chorus. Strangely enough, Bjorn sounded more like Christian during Natural Born Chaos if you listen to Follow the Hollow or Black Star Deciever.

[JoX1992]

FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Ripjaw57]

This is going to be a freakin sweet year for Universum, you got some Alvestam fans that didn't know about their existence and plus the already huge fanbase they already have, heck yesssssss

[MrSeejay01]

@samibenji1 I thought it'd be closer to "Death Machine" or something along those lines.

[ProtestTheIndie]

@MrSeejay01

I think that's what they were going for but it actually says The Dead Machine

(I can read Latin btw)

[thydemon666]

one cock sucker hit thumbs down here...

[thydemon666]

um speechless...nothing to describe in words

[Exoddusss]

awesome!!!!!

[johndcofdc]

This album kicks major asses! Well done, you guys out did the previous album by far.

[Njiekovic]

This is about the six billionth time I've heard this song this week. Album should be on its way here by now.

[Blessedwithdisease]

UNIVERSUM>KANGAROOS

[1nespower]

[DarkCastro9]

[sheriffreeze]

Thanks for reply another question , why when i translated universum - sum of the universe it showed isreal is the whole ???

[sheriffreeze]

Can anybody give me the lyrics , also i wanted to ask what is meant by mortuus machina ?

[DeathNeverAscent]

Boner!!!

[wildfrost]

Finally!! this is great!! :D

[TriviumSweden]

2.07-2.17...best part of song! Love it =)

[kb3glo]

It's finally here! My months of agonizing waiting finally paid off... the entire album is epic. Especially the songs featuring christian. Phenomenal piece of work this is. Especially 2:30 - 2:45.... eargasm

[TriviumSweden]

Christian doesn't does all the growl, just some parts! Universum's "original" vocalist does fucking great work over here! But Chrisitian, you brings some awesomeness!

[PorcupineTheater85]

the part at 2:17 - 2:44 shouldve been longer, Melodic death genius that is!!!

[Ripjaw57]

WTH, I thought the 15 was the release date........there is nothing on their website saying anything, does anyone know the legit release date......oh lord WHY, WHHYYY must I go through this? :/

[khaoskainofthedamned]

Thank you Thank you

Thank you Thank you

So fucking much for uploading this Amazing song

[xHybr1d]

Imagine an entire Universum album with Christian on vocals, would be insane.

[kergefarkas]

@xHybr1d like old Scar Symmetry. I would kill for it.

[xHybr1d]

@kergefarkas

Oh yes, make it happen Universum!

[Arryx08]

One of the best songs i've ever heard. Christian is AMAZING!

[Soilworker091]

I truly can not wait for this album! Universum means very damn much to me,I was in a hit and run accident a few years ago and I was the victim,I found out about this band during that same time and they helped me through all the dark emotions I was goin through!

[Ripjaw57]

They are keeping a tight lid on this, I remember finding all the song's of solution .45's albulm three days before the release date,so far we only got this track......keep on waiting I guess.

[Soilworker091]

I can't wait to have this album in my life! I fuckin love this band!

[RunningWithin]

Sounds awesome as fuck. I'm definitely going to ge this album 

[alxmisfits]

Damn! it's Fuckin Awesome i cant wait!!!!

[millersj]

I have never been this excited for an album release. Ever.

[debrew66]

Is he gonna be on all the songs or just this one ??

[CieloArtificial]

@debrew66 Only in a few songs I think.

[Iminatube]

@debrew66 According to wikipedia three of 'em

[cfh210192]

CHRISTIAN > METAL

[Iminatube]

@cfh210192 Christian > everything!

[cfh210192]

@Iminatube I agree

[TheGreatestJihad]

release date is Dec 15th

[mercenary64]

do we have a release date for Mortuus Machina yet?

[Ripjaw57]

AHHHHHHHHH Yes finally some light..........the promise of day :D

[Adultguj]

If God was a vocalist in a metal band, he would sounds exactly like Christian Älvestam.

[CieloArtificial]

The singer of Universum is amazing, the real protagonist of this song. Excellent.

[armenofbodom666]

Christian is an angel sent down to serenade human life.

Universum is omg amazing

nuff said

[Philter123456789]

I've said it before and i'll say it again. Anything Alvestam touches becomes instant fucking epicness, and clearly this is no exception.

If Christian was ever going to come to Adelaide, Universum would be that reason.

[Caelum935]

Christian - god vocals!

[daewooharvey]

4th time since it was put up on youtube...1/200th of it's total listens.

Still a phenominal song, bring on the new album!

[nitehawk123]

[Aurion666]

[bobtacoman]

[METALLICA6547]

I KNEW THIS WOULD BE FUCKING AWSOME COULDNT EXPECT ANYTHING ELSE FROM ALVESTAM,WHAT A MUSICAL GENIUS,I SWEAR HE COULD SING RAP WHICH I HATE AND IT WOULD BE HAIR RAISINGLLY EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!!

[xHybr1d]

FUCKING AMAZING, GUYS! Ever since I heard the clip of the chorus on the teaser, I've been dying to hear the full song. This sounds just like old Scar Symmetry, I fucking love it. The chorus makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up, it's epic.

[MaquinaDePensar]
