I think this is most peoples favorite track off itsoats. It can't be beat. it is superb. It's as brilliant as anything from enthrone darkness triumphant or dusk and her embrace..

[@ThrashMetallix]

Such a fucking epic song, and ending to their debut album. Black Metal bands need to do a lot to get my respect, and this band easily got that respect. These guys fucking rule.

[@abolishnato]

the most epic and powerful outro of all time

[@BlackShark33]

This is an amazing Video, Love that song to pieces, had to lol at the guy to the left's hands though :P Thanks for the upload, now if only i can find more vids on the band "Last House on the Left" i would be set.

[@raspberryarizona]

I played with them for a show on this Tour. Milwaukee, WI. Good times.

[@EpicHorizons]

Yep, I was standing right in front of her. For some reason when I was recording I could see her, but she didn't show up on the video. That's why when there is nothing but darkness to the right of Samus. That's when I was actually recording her play the keys...

[@Mezuglh]

Love this one

[@seriousnosvemos]

everything sounds perfect just like when i saw them live for myself ughhh this band is on my top 5 live bands

[@JakeFarhang]

i think this one and floods are the best songs on the album. fuckin epic as shit.

[@MisterSchlomah]

HOLY SHIT they are good live!

[@WesleyHdBanger]

This drummer is good.

[@BlackShark33]

Agreed!

[@sagefloop]

Tremendous

[@BlackShark33]

[@justusthedeep]

Agreed.

[@heretikzilla]

Génial!! c'est excellent... \m/ \m/

[@hiimlogan84]

My god the drums sound demi-godly

[@AlienSpace666]

@R3dLightPl3dge Breakdown? There's no breakdown in this, lol.

[@SwordXEvil]

@EpicHorizons black metal doesn't have breakdowns or drop C tuning.

[@EpicHorizons]

@SwordXEvil The beginning of Dimmu-Borgir's Progenies of the Great Apocalypse begins with a breakdown. Are they not black metal? A lot of songs from Chiodos have break downs. Are they Deathcore?

[@beermandan420]

@zachf914 I think they wanted to go the "Ambient Black Metal" route. Personally, I like it.

[@EpicHorizons]

You & me boph!

[@EpicHorizons]

@SwordXEvil So what is Dimmu-Borgir? Cause I'm leaning towards you've some things mixed up. Or maybe I do?

[@eanalbe3525]

Samus drum?

[@nellsonstout7001]

I’m about 99% sure it’s him

[@SwordXEvil]

they are referred to as blackened deathcore

[@metalJBC]

5:06 I fell in love... BTW why is Ken not playing?

[@777EZekiel]

cant find it ...

[@kentucky1519]

The structure is amazing the symphonic parts are brilliant and that drummer is going to need a bucket of water because his hands are smoking after that

[@alexisonpin]

I cant find the guitar tabs for this song and it kills me :/

[@xImpendingChapelxAAF]

god damn it alana is a babe! this is an ill vid

[@666abigailwilliams]

3:03 guitargasam

[@SanskarWagley]

I miss Ashley, but Alana's got chops

[@SwordXEvil]

@mrcrapstick99 nah i mean like something you can actually call a genre

[@MasterShakes138]

Where is a breakdown? Haven't heard one throughout this whole song... The only song they have a breakdown in is into the ashes and that is their worst one. Abigail williams is a symphonic black metal band... Anyone who say's different needs to listen to their new album In the absense of light. They got rid of the whole metalcore sound and now just do straight blackend death.

[@EpicHorizons]

@MasterShakes138 Man dude, you're late.

[@EpicHorizons]

@SwordXEvil I don't hear Deathcore in this at all man. If anything, I would just call them black metal...

[@SwordXEvil]

@EpicHorizons @EpicHorizons first of all no offense but Dimmu Borgir isn't black metal, so as CoF, bands like that sell out and let themselves get influenced with whatever will bring more money to their pockets. You can throw in any band with a slight resemblance of a breakdown and call it an "example". But the fact is that breakdowns is a heritage of hardcore, so any other band is not decent from hardcore you can't consider what they put in there a breakdown.

[@MasterShakes138]

@EpicHorizons Ha! It's what I do best.

[@EpicHorizons]

Agreed.
