Lyrics:
The Garden of Earthly Delights
Born from the void and still pristine
Tranquil, vast and cold
See the orb of blue and green
When he spake the light shone gold
Brought to life, in the image of god
In this holy place
Settled among the creatures odd
Eve, dear girl, avert thy gaze
Claims to love them all;
his world below
Minding not their fall;
a mirthful show
Merriments in the centerpiece
Weird things in galore
Is this the cradle of the disease
that man alone must answer for?
Joy and delight, forever ceased
Suffering’s abloom
Eaten alive by the cauldron beast
Let the drones ring to the sound of doom

if anyone doesn't know, the bagpipe melody is called "Je Vivroie Liement", its by the french late medieval composer Guillaume de Machaut (1300-1377)

[@stefanogugliotta957]

This is a definition of a FANTASTIC cover. I always say that metal is the true progression of beautiful music of old. If you do not know, this is actually a cover of medieval French composer and bars Guillaume de Machauts’ Je Voivre Liement Circa 1300. Actually, this is kind of “late” period medieval music. Considering it came out in the last period of the era. Regardless, he was one of the few composers that we have any historical records from. Listen to the original and you’ll see what INCREDIBLE job this band did with the cover. This is what Metal is for! A continuation of our ancestors!

Seeing all the fantasy comments and missing the clear and obvious song about a deconstruction and crisis of faith due to God’s seeming indifference to mankind’s fall and the ultimate consequences of ours and his actions. Love this song because it gets to a very central aspect of a lot of Christians deconstruction of faith and tackles it respectfully and from the believers perspective shifting from a tone of hope to despair and torment. No hatred only joy and anguish. Beautiful song. Great choice to contrast it with a French Medieval folk song glorifying God.

[@ShyShySmurf]

I'm seriously obsessed with this song.. it's so good 😱😍

[@michaelknudson5043]

Shy Pomeroy I have had the same problem beautifully composed

[@timm5970]

Have you found anything else similar?

[@theskyisteal8346]

I didn't know what to expect but then this opened with a bagpipe solo and I knew that it was good.

[@HauntedGuitarMan]

im huge fan of finntroll and ensiferum, equilibrium...this is one of the best folk songs ive ever heard.i will spread your music to all.

[@TrIs1493]

* Doom Folk metal xD

[@KleberFainer]

I do prefer the term which the band uses, Medieval Doom Metal.

[@AngelsOnTheBattlefield]

Medieval Progressive Doom Metal

[@robinflick5516]

Hey also check out eluveitie. Thank me later.

[@KleberFainer]

I did already went to their concert, I like their music, but nothing compared to Apocalypse Orchestra, in my opinion Apocalypse Orchestra are far more greater.

[@Johngottisentme]

I’ve been dying for some fresh music. Finally.

[@patrickphillips4845]

This song still manages to end up on my current playlist ever since its original release

[@superdrummergaming]

Bagpipes and hurdy gurdy. SOLD!

[@peterkarargiris4110]

Wow ! I mean WOW ! I can't wait for your album. Excellent work guys !

[@ryanhashyhsh2339]

you know I had yet to hear a bagpipe in metal that worked guys this is beautiful

[@myrlyn1250]

ummm... Korn? AC/DC?

[@ryanhashyhsh2339]

myrlyn12 I never heard a bagpipe in their songs

[@Hhhjam1975]

Korn Shoots and Ladders

[@myrlyn1250]

Jeremiah Babcock also 'dead' from 'issues'.

[@Evilpandaa]

Can't speak for Korn, but AC/DC's "long way to the top" and also Sabaton's "Blood of Bannockburn" both have bagpipes.

[@Siobhan_OLaoghaire]

This song grabbed me by the throat and wouldn't let go. Turned me on to AO and I want MORE!

[@dalephillips4879]

Had this cranked so loud the squirrel in my attic became active again never heard him for weeks.

[@vundaman]

Viking Approved.

[@rickscarlowe8871]

Slower folk-ish medieval stuff is also nice, for a change.

[@alan138]

Yeah is a nice alternarive when you dont want or even need those super speed riffs that traditional metal always have. This song seems nice to me for acompany some creative work stuff and relax moments.

[@Erkilmarl]

Actually the most traditional metal was moderately slow (and swingy). The super speed came later. Check eg. Atomic Rooster's Tomorrow Night for the sweeping swing that cannot be reproduced in super speed. It is here, too.

[@ghostcrew3482]

its acttually called doom metal but this is a combo of doom and folk metal😃

[@Soulforged]

The one thing I love about this genre is that it speaks to the soul. So many different ways to go but it all calls clearly that it's speaks to you in the way that music should. Have always loved it and always will.

[@bastarthur]

I was scrolling thru my facebook memories, and on this day, 4 yrs ago, these cool fellows picked me as one of the winners of free t-shirt for commemorating this video's 1 million views. And four years later, it's already reaching 16 million views. Crazy. Can't wait for their next album.
