I've had goosebumps for 6 years because of this song.

[@grimmcore]

This sinks through a spectrum of Tool, Opeth and Mastodon. How can band manage to channel all three within a moment and make it sound just as good if not better than all three?! New favorite band I think

[@henrywalton5967]

It really is a mix of all 3 with very original song writing

[@donkeyrips2943]

Wonderful comment, and completely true!

[@larsseeler3193]

I love that the "Intro" is just as long as your regular shitty pop-song! Great band.

[@rebelslash510]

Good shit! This band should be better known

[@THEmaggspie]

this......everything ive ever wanted !!!!!!

[@progrockplaylists]

this song does absolutely everything right

[@ferdinardos]

Great track ! among the others you have mention it has also an old mastodon feeling.

[@nickygoods131]

thank you Anciients for coming back!!!!! *heart of oak* has remained a constant for me, amd these recordings prove just as strong if not stronger! I am a lifer of this band and proud of it.

[@Bleak5170]

Agree 100% Heart of Oak was fantastic and this sounds even better.

[LYRICS] Here I stand, high above All this death, as it waits Spiral crown, made of bone Blackened blood, horns of agony Staring down at their wastelands Primal brain so pure of heart Bleeding wrecthed blood Skulls trampled from above Make my way, down paths of Sacred song, my soul is strong I erase the path I take Hating man horns over Hands sinister and cold Are all he's ever known Bleeding wrecthed blood Skulls trampled from above None shall defy me All shall fear my ibex eye Storm comes in disguise Flames in my eyes Sacred triumph of death I will take their last breath Sacred ways, triumph of death They will take one last breath Ancient ways, bringer of death I will take their last breath My call is my sword I will be heard Sacred ways, triumph of death They will take one last breath My call is my sword I will be heard Ancient ways, bringer of death I will take their last breath My call is my sword I will be heard

[@tooofify]

This song is fucking awesome and brilliant! I play music (bass play since 30 years from now) , and I know what I mean. This band is seriously underrrated, its a fucking scandal

[@lizucavictoria]

[@EinSophistry]

Finally, a new Tool album!

[@DocteurZeuhl]

Tool vs pre-Heritage Opeth.

[@EinSophistry]

A win for us either way.

[@anthonyrich1953]

TOOL doesn't have tools to create this.

[@dandan642]

It's like intronaut meets tool/mastodon

Awesome!!!!

[@IrishHooligan86]

They wear their influences on their sleeves

[@alexhutchinson8039]

wow man! best album of the year! i've been feeling so miserable progressively speaking after Opeth started making that cheesy music and Tool taking such a long nap... well I had Lamb Of God but i was really missing the Progressive side of metal, welcome to history Ancients!!!

[@thepeoplehateu]

Bruh, Opeth is still Quite the Amazingness. Their new album is less than steller but they still good. Idk I might be biased for them. But this album is easily top 10 of the year for me.

[@garethburningham]

Yeah man Sorceress is awesome.

[@luke666808g]

Mr Akerfeldt plumbed the depths of progressive death metal for all the riffs he could find, and with Watershed you could tell, he's running out of ideas, the change was inevitable.

[@clevelandbrown5709]

siiiick

[@martinsmotic5059]

Guys, can someone please suggest me a band with a similar sound, excluding the 3 bands most mentioned in the comments (Tool, Opeth and Mastadon)? I've been listening to Anciients for the past month, gotta find somethings fresh but I am enchanted with their style.

[@asdf12369]

if youre still looking for something similar but fresh, give Wilderun - Veil of Imagination a listen (do the whole album in one sitting), and then check out their other stuff :)

[@martinsmotic5059]

@@asdf12369 Will do, thanks man

[@stevenforman3044]

Nice. :D

[@NightOwlparallax]

Where is the lyric to sing this epic athem

[@Septiksiren666]

this is like a mix of opeth with tool i dig it

[@KipDynamite29]

this reminds me of Poison The Well.... and Deftones... and The Contorsionist... but I don't know much of Tool, and according to comments I think I should ! ... Does it sound more like Tool or A Perfect Circle ?

[@THEmaggspie]

DEFINITELY TOOL
