DELAIN - Masters Of Destiny (Official Video) | Napalm Records

[@Blitzless_Aim]

This is by far the best orchestral instrumental delain ever had!!! This band is becoming better and better!!!

I agree with you! Watched them the fourth time yesterday - they are on their way up to the top!

Sounding a lot better, i agree. Not long to wait either

I love this song. Charlotte is my friend from highschool, so proud of her and the band. Definitely stepping up their game! LOVE!

I think they are awesome as well. Im from the united states Delain is performing a few hours from my home in Kasas city missouri, in oct. looking forward to the show.

[@kisaavideolarr]

You're so lucky :)

[@thelightvampire2337]

Well i also know her and I could be a part of the band but I was a student while Charlotte was a bit older I choose to study and to be honest I regret that I did that most think a band starts so will it reach big tops or just have a 1 hit wonder and for the rest ????? who are they I see Charlotte made it and I'm proud to see how much fame a friend got + she is a very kind woman always ready to see her friends or even her fans I'm glad I don't see she got the diva manners thinking she is better than anyone else and I remember when she married I got an invitation so she always remembers her friends even how famous and how many perform in her heart and mind her friends and everyone she loves is by her and won't let us down

[@viniciusdeavilajorge5053]

I've already been twice in Delain concerts (one of them opening Nightwish last year), both in São Paulo, Brazil (where I live) and her voice was AMAZING, I loved every second of those concerts... And Charlotte was so sympathetic, she took pictures with us in one of them (my wife took the picture, obviously jealous)!!! photos.app.goo.gl/eYy3ZK5khLBu5EuAA

@@gothknight6 There are a few live recordings floating about tbh. Not the best audio quality, but the band sounded great.

Lana Sídhe I’m a huge fan but I’m also realistic and she doesn’t ever sound like the recorded songs.

[@LanaFeyah]

@@gothknight6 I mean, nobody does. Charlotte has a wonderful voice and she's constantly evolving and experimenting with it, there isn't a single song of Delain's that's "easy to sing", if that makes sense. And it's kind of disheartening to see a big fan of theirs seeking out positive comments to respond with skepticism to, just saying.

[@Jensen423]

I don’t really listen to symphonic metal anymore but always enjoy listening to Delain. They have such a unique sound and they are great live.

[@welfiblablabla]

Check out Epica. I do like Delain but I think Epica are way better on every level from insturments over singing to audio mix and master. And they are simply awseome live in concert😉

[@Jensen423]

Tom Welfringer I have heard of Epica and they are great too!

[@sistersinful]

not even within temptation? though i guess you can call her music cinematic metal

[@Jensen423]

Sister Sinful I used to listen to them but now I’m much more into bands like After The Burial and Whitechapel

[@corbinm5237]

Harry Neary it also doesn’t help that any time a symphonic metal band with a female singer comes along,they get written off immediately as a Nightwish/Within Temptation copycat or wannabe.

Makes me wonder what other pearls I haven't heard yet, but I'm sure the songs will come onto path at the right time, like this one really resonates with me now.

My dream was to see a concert with Delain but bad luck,i can't anymore!!! Great band 👍 very great musicians, singer and a fantastic composer. Charlotte is in my top three singers now and I wish to create more beautiful songs. I wish them all good luck in whatever choose to do. Thanks for your music Delain.

I'm replying to my own comment to say I know that technically right now Delain is only promoting a mini album and not a full album, but I've been a fan long enough to know a full album isn't usually too far behind a mini album. Also I've always been the type to see the album as half full.
