Wintersun - Eternal Darkness (Lyric Video) [Reaction/Review]

[@APREACTS]

Exclusive Interview with Jari Mäenpää from Wintersun is now up on KZbin. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pX2vaZtoeLOoadU

[@AlPacinoLeBoss]

The chorus of that song is so powerful! as well as the screams of Jari

[@blazejecar]

The 2nd part of the ending you missed is the abruptness. It goes with the lyrics "I am death" because death is unexpected and sudden and it's basically pure nothingness, just like the ending :) It's just one of the many parts of the lyrics and song with a hidden meaning. Anyways, for links, the only link you will actually need is this one for Starchild. It's one of my favourite tracks from the 1st album but it can't be found on youtube due to copyright reasons, so you have to listen to it elsewhere, probably best here: www.zapkolik.com/video/wintersun-starchild-548509 once again, you can't find it on youtube, but it's WAY too good to miss

[@temet_fin]

Thanks, even now after some five years later. Not been that familiar to this band earlier but now I'm just obsessed to hear more. Maybe I even could have a chance to see them alive one day, after all we live in the same country.

[@mailisparrott9186]

I'd start with summer, happy season, going through the death of nature to loneliness of winter towards the new hope of spring and summer, new life of nature. 😊 In Finland the seasons live with people often very concretely, so very well represented in these songs. Great reactions from you!

[@RÅNÇIÐ]

There's one song left from the second album "land of snow and sorrow". But here's a music video from the first album kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2HZi3l3gLWAY6s

[@starchild606]

Well, if you listen carefully to the drum and pace of it is like an heart beat , everytime I listen to this song It reminds me of the day I saw my father died. HEartbreaking for me every time

[@DrawingNo1]

The outro is amazing!

[@Patralgan]

I wouldn't call it death metal. For me it's almost purely modern black metal. Maybe you could say blackened death metal. I modified this song to sound like an old school black metal and it turned out great. With some minor tweaks I was able to do that. It's in my channel.

[@APREACTS]

Blackened Death Metal is the perfect description for it!!!!

[@Sohlarys]

@@APREACTS i don't agree , no style can describe what wintersun does , Wintersun's style is basically Wintersun , if you disagree , i challenge you to find something that is as complex , emotionfull and that you can listen to the same 2 albums(now 3) for 10 years , thats what i've been doing , and man the experience you get by seeing them live , no band can achieve such ''depth'' , oh and by the way , we went to the same Wintersun show ! saw you guys backstage October 9th at the Opera House , Cheer fellow Wintersun fans !

[@ZonZorZerx]

@Patralgan No non-retarded individual would call Wintersun nor this song death metal, and especially not 'modern black metal'. You are completely clueless.

[@ZonZorZerx]

@@APREACTS No, it's a terrible description for it. This song is very melodic and symphonic. You're also clueless.

[@olivierroussin4432]

@@ZonZorZerx keep it cool man they are not disrespectful, we all know all wintersun are complex and they are kinda right about blackened death metal, but no need to call them clueless

[@lukaswuttke3695]

*#HEYGUYS* It's finally Wintersunday!

[@APREACTS]

No kidding, I look forward to WintersunDay's!!!!

[@lukaswuttke3695]

A&P-REACTS Me too brother!

[@ZEHM89]

Definitely give Aether Realm's "Tarot" album a listen. Especially "The Sun, The Moon, The Star." 20 minutes of American/Finnish death metal epicness.

[@Emberdweller]

You are actualy the first channel i see that understood and actually felt the meaning behind the ending! Great reaction! I think the logical choice is to finish the Time 1 album By reacting to Land of Snow and Sorrow live@Sonic Pump Studios (Cant post link because i'm on the phone but it's easy to find :) ) Cheers!

[@APREACTS]

We got that video....thanks for the feedback!!!!

[@lukaswuttke3695]

Check out the last clip from the three rehearsal videos. It's pure awesomeness! \m/ kzbin.info/www/bejne/mYulZ32ModF9ick

[@APREACTS]

We have two of those three...Time & Sons of Winter and Stars. You can see them on our channel.

[@APREACTS]

We will be doing that one after we check a couple of tracks from the Wintersun album. I really want to check that original debut album.

[@Rebella1337]

I left you a message on FB with the rest of the song links and stuff, but in case you don't see it, I'll leave it here too :) Wintersun - Wintersun 2.0 Remaster 1. Beyond the Dark Sun 2:38 kzbin.info/www/bejne/oqm0m4Wae8ifm80 Also has a music video kzbin.info/www/bejne/opmqhqhsg7uLrM0 2. Winter Madness 5:08 kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJbSfqmKeqeJm7M 3. Sleeping Stars 5:41 kzbin.info/www/bejne/a5SoqXiJiL9keKs 4. Battle Against Time 7:03 kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y4fdenR-jtuJd7s 5. Death and the Healing 7:13 kzbin.info/www/bejne/mXXUn5yao9d0fJo 6.Starchild 7:54 (Sadly has been removed from youtube, and all I could find was the non-remastered version on another website.) www.zapkolik.com/video/wintersun-starchild-548509 7. Beautiful Death 8:16 kzbin.info/www/bejne/pHXIlGabjsuHpMU 8. Sadness and Hate 10:16 kzbin.info/www/bejne/gonWmoyLZ9ZqqcU The difference between the original selftitled album and the remaster is just a slight improvement in the sound, and the new Winter Madness intro, which did not exist until he released the remaster with the crowdfunding for The Forest Seasons album. Last song from Time 1 Land of Snow and Sorrow (Live rehearsal video) kzbin.info/www/bejne/mYulZ32ModF9ick Pick any song from the first album, they are all 10/10 absolute masterpieces and it may be hard to believe, but the album blows Time 1 out of the water. Time was originally going to be released all at once, but technical troubles throughout the production of the album delayed as Jari took upon himself way too much work in doing everything himself on the album, along with having to start from scratch one time too. In the end, Nuclear Blast told Jari to release the album in two parts. If the second part of the album was released with the first as a full album, I'm quite certain it would stand up to and maybe even surpass the first album. Some of the greatest stuff of the album is supposed to be on Time 2.

[@APREACTS]

Rebecca haves us an insane road map

[@Patralgan]

It's of course highly debatable whether either album "blows the other out of the water". I like both white equally, perhaps Time I a little more, but they are cut kind of beasts so it's hard to compare.

[@Rebella1337]

Yes, I think the selftitled album is "better" simply because of the sheer amount of incredible songs on the album. Time 1 is amazing too, but with only 4 songs it falls short because while they are all amazing tracks on the album, all the selftitled tracks are equally as amazing and it just wins out with the quantity of content. It is so hard to say that anything is better than anything else, because when I listen through the songs, I'm just in absolute love with every single track, and I could easily say that any of them could be my favorite one after hearing it. Less so with The Forest That Weeps and Awaken from the Dark Slumber, though. They are really good, and I really love some parts of the songs, and especially the lyrics in The Forest that Weeps. In my eyes I give them 9 Wintersaunas out of 10, while pretty much every other song would be a 10. I suppose it all depends on current mood and stuff like that too. There is so much variety in the Wintersun songs, and some are more appropriate for some times than others :)

[@LeachimSagrav333]

So haunting 🤘

[@daemonmustaine]

Did you hear those drum blasts.... bad-ass!

[@caichaarles]

I think you are gonna love even more the acoustic version of loneliness

[@suvivainio134]

This song is disturbing, I feel a bit sick when listening it. But to get the best emotional roller coaster ride, I need to listen this one first and then Loneliness. The ending of this song is so sudden and quietness (is that a actual word?) is super loud after those all harsh melodies, screams and growling. And then Loneliness begins...😭

[@Teme_FJT]

Those drums are actually played by drum machine. Jari composed them.

[@KreshDraven6]

The lyrics of this song is the best of the album I think, and I like how they end the song, like, they show how death comes suddenly. And this album has all the drums programmed guys, but they play all the songs live if you want to check them out One of their best songs with one of the best solos in metal history kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJbSfqmKeqeJm7M (Oh, this is the remastered version with an beautiful intro)

[@lrtt99]

Please next Beyond the Dark Sun or Land of Snow and Sorrow! Better the second choice, it's the last song from the album Time :) Pd. This is the most black metal song from them, live is terrorific, amazing. Now, brace yourself for epic riffs, trash, power, epic and sadness with the other songs. Cheers!

[@luissantiestebancomposer]

The best!

[@ToastedCigar]

At least for me, this Autumn track was the hardest one to listen to. However, when I listened it like 5 times, I realized how cool it is! The only con is that the first few minutes of the song are a bit stale, but the rest is pure gold!

[@APREACTS]

Loneliness is still the best one, for me this is third after The Forest That Weeps.

[@Dr4kenMTG]

I would like to see any "winter madness" version from you guys ;)

[@APREACTS]

You will....

[@Pellzor]

Wintersun - Beyond the Dark Sun

[@mathias6423]

Reminds me alot of oldschool black metal.

[@MatthewBagar]

Check out Apocalypse Orchestra - The Garden Of Earthly Delights... You'll LOVE IT!

[@Krofius]

From the first album, Beautiful Death or Battle Against Time. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pHXIlGabjsuHpMU kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y4fdenR-jtuJd7s

[@Need4Needle]

i guess it's the subclavian artery that's compressed by scalene muscles, or is it neuralgia b/c of brachial plexus compression? either way surely a bit of resting should decrease neck muscle's tension =D good luck with that!

[@kristoffer2322]

Loving this channel! You guys just got a new subscriber :) Have you ever heard Symphony X? I would like to recommend the song Nevermore by them. They made a official video to it. One of the best bands I have ever heard. Greetings from Sweden

[@APREACTS]

Thank you. Never heard of them...we will add it to our list.

[@kristoffer2322]

A&P-REACTS Looking forward to it! They made their first album back in 94 and they have made sooo many incredible good songs since then. Nevermore is from their latest album.

[@bogenstark_kai8461]

Oh Yeah! Symphony X - The Odyssey kzbin.info/www/bejne/q6mmeJqZjZiqnKM Or anything on their Paradise Lost Album...I´m sure you guys would love it!

React to Loathe - Dance On My Skin and Bad Omens - Glass Houses

[@LukasKrasny]

React to Malignant Tumour - Walk as we talk, from Czech Republic :)

[@markopuranen5910]

Guys, the drums on this album are all programmed. No actual playing involved. Jari did this album pretty much all by himself.

[@APREACTS]

The question I have is do they play this song live?

[@Excrucius]

They do. I saw them live last (winter)sunday and they closed the show with Eternal Darkness and Time. It was unreal. They also played it at this year's Summer Breeze festival. The full show is here on KZbin, but also as seperated tracks.

[@Excrucius]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpvOhmCtmrKhars there you go :D

[@APREACTS]

That is awesome.

[@Youlubucki]

If it was Kai Hahto (Wintersun) drumming in this album, the accuracy and perfection wouldn't be any worse than they are now. Hahto would have only added his creativity in it. And BTW, he has played in a grindcore band Rotten Sound

[@realitycheck7598]

Make a reaction video to: Moonlight Eternal - Burning Sunlight Everlasting (Official Video): kzbin.info/www/bejne/qaXbop9-dpJ4sJo There is also a live version.

Stick to Your Guns- Better Ashe than Dust

[@Mustaerkki]

It´s a good song but not so much melodies so my least favorite of the album.

[@pavimaris]

okay
