Allegaeon - Called Home (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

[@Mason_____]

Hits so hard today especially. Thank you Riley and the Allegaeon family. RIP Trevor Strnad

[@AtticusTheDeathMetaller]

I am so devastated….

[@wilbar713]

Devastated by the loss of Trevor...amazing and beautiful soul...gone to soon

[@ElrondKaresh]

Fuck, is that who this song is about?? Shit makes me so sad dude.

[@GregBurgessGuitar]

​@@ElrondKareshno not about Trevor, a couple of us lost friends over the pandemic and this song is about them. Horrible coincidence we released this the morning everyone learned about Trevor. But in a way it hits deeper.

[@Jack-O-Spades]

Rest in peace, Trevor. The world is a lesser place without your creativity, your drive, your leadership, your soul. You mentored so many to be good and loving in a depraved realm of existence, including and especially myself. From me to you my man, thank you for the memories, the laughs, the reflection, every show and every lyrical and vocal lesson you ever taught me. You will be missed for time eternal.

[@v12kid]

Hits different today. Epic song, massive feels. RIP Trevor. Long live Allegaeon

[@InjuKyoshi666]

This is definitely something a lot of us in the community need to hear right now. Many of us struggle with so many inner demons, and we're taught to "suck it up" and led into the mentality of "just suffer through it, it's a passing thing" when in reality...sometimes it's not. Sometimes, it lingers. Sometimes, it refuses to release you. And sometimes...sometimes it forces its way into every corner of your mind and takes you down with it in the end. We all need to remember that sometimes, we can't do it alone. We can't fight it alone. We can't carry the burden alone. We're brothers and sisters in the Metal community. Reach out if you need help. Someone will listen Thank you, Allegaeon, for this wonderful masterpiece, and for all you guys do. RIP Trevor, you were an amazing person. You left us far too soon...

[@robysuscosas]

Best song of the album , easily. The Opeth vibes are strong on this one but the sound is clearly Allegaeon. Fantastic, guys!

[@METALDANNY420]

I literally thought I was listening to Opeth for the first half of this song when I heard it the first time. Fucking amazing.

[@davidamarat]

Yup! reminds a lot to Baying of the hounds and Beneath the mire, even Hours of wealth

[@nanikislami913]

great song but it has no guitar solos

[@saukkonen1328]

@@nanikislami913 so what?

[@bmac4]

It's rare to see a band of this style approach this subject in earnest. It doesn't mince words about the violent nature of things, but it is not a song strictly of violence but rather of the conflicting, painful emotions that one goes through when going through the experience of losing someone to suicide. In doing so in such a way, the song ends up almost feeling heavier than many songs that tackle the subject strictly for shock value, both in terms of music and in terms of the emotions of the listener. it struck a chord with me the first time I heard it and a year later I still think this is one of the best metal songs I can think of, one that tells a story using the music and dissonance for effect, while also just being heavy and well mixed and played in general. And as someone who has both lost someone to suicide by gunshot and who has had to deal with both my own mental health struggles and who has had to talk several loved ones off a ledge over the years, Greg and the rest of Allegaeon, I appreciate that you dedicated this video and song to such a cause.

[@AaronSVS]

Took me a year to watch this video. Still cried relentlessly.

[@polincgoku6658]

Heavy fax my brudduh in christ

[@gypsylynn45]

I didn’t realize exactly why this was my favorite song on the album but now I get why. I suffered from depression and suicidal ideation for decades. This video was hard to watch I did the wall punching and trying to drown myself. This depiction is so spot on! I eventually got help for my mental health and for the most part have my depression under control. However last year I lost a close friend to suicide by gunshot and the blood on the band and the utter anguish I hear in Riley’s voice in “why did you suffer this alone all along?” I feel this to my core. Great job guys! ❤️🤘

[@leoguzman8160]

Love the ScarSymetry/Opeth vibes fron this amazing song!! Great job guys!! 🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘

[@gabrielt.7415]

RIP Trevor Strnad.....🖤🖤🖤 Kudos to Allegaeon for this epic dirge song

[@MangoKai]

I love this band, this song, and every song since I first heard them in 09 but I could not finish this video. It just hit so close to home for me. Mental health needs far more attention than it currently does.

[@holtdcw]

In the web you left behind I fail to find or forgive myself Long and cold have they grown Sunless days in this home Often and over and over again Thoughts that won't come to rest Why did you suffer this alone all along? All dim, all pale, so lift me on the pyre The feast is over, the lamps expire Long and cold has it grown This road you wandered once Often and over and over again Led to inevitable ends Why did you suffer this alone all along? What desperation guides your hand to blanket these vacant walls? By keystroke you wrote, "I was called home," And through that action I lost my own Through that action I lost my own home The peace the trigger granted begat the horror of flesh and bone I only hope you found, that which was sought By keystroke you wrote, "I was called - called home." The dissolution of brotherhood brought by a mist of red - I am home Carried you thusly and later read That I, "deserve better," - what this life has fed Now I must embrace the lessons taught Everything you taught me I cleaned your blood from off the screen Scraped your brain matter, and let loose a scream Relegated your life to trash and unseen Shattered but grateful for all you did for me All you did for me The role you played was the most important of all Why did you suffer this alone? No one was with you when you died I am home

[@wagnard88]

This piece of music is one of my favorites of all time. It hits hard...

[@headbangersballroom662]

Needed this track more than I thought. Rest in peace Trevor Strnad. The world is a better place because you were in it.

[@spleen1234567]

RIP Jerry and Trevor. Your memory will live on forever.

[@ruy16dakota]

My sister in law passed away a few weeks ago due to mental illness. In the end, she took 200 pills and had a heart attack. I almost cried watching this video, but it's also kind of comforting.

[@BenjaminWoods]

Wow, this is fkn Awesome!

[@richardhom1614]

This song is one of the greatest all time for how it hits home and it's sheer power. Absolute Masterpiece. The world is missing out.

[@pattol666]

Hits me right in the feels after hearing about Trevor. Great song guys.

[@skyline112006]

What a rough day, good mental health is so important. #RIPTrevor

[@Yoshoggutha]

I've spent the past 7 months in IOP after neglecting and struggling with my mental health for over 20 years. It can't be said enough just how important your mental health truly is. I only just learned about Trevor and it's really fucking sad. I agree with many others on that this song is amazing but also hits really close to home for so many of us. It's never too late to get help and you're not alone, no matter how bleak it may seem.

[@protolexis]

Today is such a sad day because of Trevor but I’m so grateful to the Allegaeon dudes for crafting this masterpiece.

[@therichardnogginproject9012]

It's cool to see painters stopping to make a video on the job!!!! Kidding I love you guys!!!

[@davidcohen_]

I've seen this video like 6 times, but never paid enough attention to the lyrics... Now I like it and respect it even more. Amazing band, and powerful message.

[@doomedinabsentia]

I saw this yesterday. I wanted to think it was a sad coincidence given the news, but I think it should be taken as a sign. I've long felt that mental health was something overlooked, trivialized and ignored in this country until it's too late. We have to take better care of each other. We're all we have

[@Krustoffalone]

I've suffered through suicide and think about it a lot myself, but I promise I won't give up, stay strong and live my brothers!!

[@glodardoe]

It's not often a song will move me to tears. A masterpiece track.

[@josephwarrior4720]

Found this song a couple weeks ago. Never heard of them, checked out a lot of there other stuff. I feel like I've missed so much. What a great group. This though is my favorite song....so far. I'd like to find more songs like this from them. Good work 💪🏼

[@christophejergales7852]

This is the first song like this from them. I'm always afraid when death metal bands lighten up, but this is still really brutal as it needs to be. I'm really excited for the future of this band.

[@chadyates5222]

It emotional and beautiful, I love it!!!🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@arinbaun9452]

Powerful and unfortunately timely. Rest In Power to all those we've lost 🖤

GET. HELP. You boys are spreading the love in the best way. We all have demons and there is no shame in getting help RIP Trevor

[@KadintheGuitarDude]

❤ one of the best songs on the album no question. Love this video

[@skylart4619]

I just discovered this band this year , I loved Of Beast and Worms. But this is also amazing. I'm excited to get to see them tomorrow night.

[@rusbell2981]

I miss you, Chris Hanson. You were amazing.

These dudes never disappoint. I remember following them back on Myspace, so they've definitely stuck in my mind through the years, and come quite a way.

[@AlexiSimonov]

I just want to thank you for making video for this masterpiece of a song. Watching this while working and literally struggling not to start crying. Damnum has many great songs both musically and lyrically, but this one hits hardest. Great work!

Love Damnum. The starting section really hit me in the video, as someone who'd been a particularly grievous depression episode I saw myself and it felt bad, it hurt. But, at the end of it all I came out smiling with tears on my face knowing there's always tomorrow. Thanks for everything Allegaeon.

I haven't been so captivated by an entire album, as much as I have been with Damnum, in probably as many years that I've been listening to the metal genre - 35 (give or take) and counting!🤘🤘 If there hadn't been an "advisory" at the beginning of the video, I wouldn't have put it together, that the images (much less the lyrics) were about the darkness of mental health that a lot of people experience.

[@warmonger8799]

Glad you guys started doing the clean vocals. I legit had to fucking google to see if Mikael akerfeldt from opeth was on this track before I seen the video.
