The first video I've ever downloaded, from Kazaa! it Took a whole day to complete! 14mb :))

[@vindsvalrpdx]

Ahh I miss those days, music is just not the same anymore.

[@berkanathoresen]

I remember downloading a few Arcturus songs and a bunch virus like that. Good times.

[@metalslinger]

I downloaded this song back when I was 19 and this song was only a year old. I feel old now.

Qué grande eres Vortex, transmites esos añorados paisajes nórdicos de bosques interminables sólo con tu maravillosa voz.

[@SlavenBilic]

It turned 20 years in 2020. We are getting old. 🤨

[@novak7405]

Nas li si momcino

[@InstrumentalArcanum]

It's insane in the lyrical vocals . So much memory on top of that playing bass. Vortex is awesome !

[@E.J.Vulgary]

I see this video once, never knew for years, until this very moment, it was Vortex (ex-Dimmu Borgir bassist/singer) singing and playing in this band during this time. Also, could never find out who they were until KZbin posted this video. Wow...memories!

[@tylog4169]

One of the Best Songs ever

[@gaborkozma8362]

Absolutly Masterpiece!!!

[@bioris666]

Hail VORTEX!!!

[@andrecisternasvictoriano]

So much nostalgia listening to this in the early 2000, I was just a teenager.

[@Pyoti]

Yessssssss! The masterpiece Colossus shall continue to stand the test of time!

[@juanpablomaiorano4757]

Borknagar...Quintessence 2000...today is difficult to find in cd this MASTERPIECE TERRIBLY AND DEEPLY SCANDINAVIAN....

[@caprise-music6722]

I think this album deserves a remaster. I mean come on. I remember listening to a local Norwegian radio channel and a metal music show called Metal Daze in the early 2000’s, and there was interview with Borknagar. They said they weren’t happy with the sound at all. Now 20 years later, come on this album needs a remaster

[@berkanathoresen]

This song is flat out beautiful! And the Drums are insane.

[@marcondesm100]

Borknagar - Colossus From out of static time has grown Existence formed by substance unknown Prelude to matter shift or dissorder Completion of bonds between chaos and order The era of seasons, the essence of being The continous process awakens the living Absorber of every flickering sun Arranging the pieces to vivid perfection The stream of mortality flows uncontrolled A boundless downward spiral to prospective void Existence takes its toll, extinction unfolds The Colossus falls back from its threshold The Cosmic grip so tight. Heed the celestial call The rise, the voyage, the fall - tangled womb of mortal soil Universal key of inception, pulled out of the grind The growing seed of creation and time Complex fusion, the bond of four - the nature's core Universal ritual, aesthetic beauty adored The pendulum upholds the carnal deceit Eternal, endless, indefinite The paradox render and the merge is complete Nothing but the process is infinite Nothing but the process is infinite Eternal, endless, indefinite

[@adofilth]

I finally got to hear this song live on their Devastation On The Nation tour which was postponed twice due to Covid.

[@elarquitectogamer8367]

"the song for the end of times!...sounds too epic

[@darwinism18]

If we humans don't know or care for a masterpiece like this one, we fully deserve coronavirus and global warming. Dear Borknagar, thank you for this gem that I've listened through times.

[@DerSchwarze76]

Another reason to believe in the power of music

[@carlavieira23]

I love you guys! FOREVER! I will never forget when you were here in Brazil and we took some photos together. * - *

This song will always stand out for me, it's just a masterpiece in every essence. Perfect to stick on as well when taking down a Colossi in 'Shadow of the Colossus' ;)
