ENSLAVED - The Watcher (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO)

[@xCannibalxMuffinx]

I used to walk my dog (a lovely Siberian Husky) through the woods and beach while listening to this song. Now... I just walk while listening to this. I miss that dog so much... Thank you Enslaved.

[@aaronstark5060]

It sucks, doesn’t it? I’ve been through that myself recently and it’s just one of the most miserable experiences in the world.

yup, I'd forgotten about Enslaved until that metal evolution episode. cracking song.

[@MrNUKECOW]

fantastic documentary, fantastic song

[@reubenchadwick]

This song still brings a tear to my eye, even after all these years

[@relativ6192]

i love how some black metal bands like these could prove you don't need to be playing a million notes and shit to be brutal. sometimes a good melody and atmosphere is harder to achieve. why did i only listen to these guys now?!

[@itsahonker6849]

I feel sorry for people who have not felt this emotion. It is not a song. Pure emotion. I love this band from front to back. Always moving forward, never back

[@derekwilliams6329]

the emotions this song strikes up is almost overwhelming

[@feonor26]

Same

[@MrThrashmetal13]

Herbrand Larsen was always my favorite part of Enslaved. His vocals brought so much to the table in terms of atmosphere and emotion. Was very sad when he left the band but Håkon is an excellent successor! Love "E" and the two new tracks from the new album. Herbrand and Cato will be missed dearly

[@nicklennox311]

I work in the same company as Herbrand now. Had a few drinks with him last night. Great guy

[@gunnar59]

​@@nicklennox311yes he is a great guy, had a few beers with him myself.He is from my hometown(Nesbyen) so knew him as a little kid.

This is such a beautiful song, I remember when I first discovered Enslaved, it opened wide the gates into Black metal and much more...

[@snewso]

+Loki Laufeyson arcturus opened the gates to black metal for me, check out their sham mirrors album if you haven't. enslaved is my favorite band nowadays.

[@MT-sk1ln]

They're not really black metal anymore. Their message is powerful and hopeful. They're epic metal.

[@thehalloweenheavymetalwarrior]

​@@MT-sk1lnThey are Viking Metal that is why they are not your typical Black Metal like Krypt or Mayhem.

This guy's vocals are awesome. I wish I could sound like that.

[@lavendersalad81]

Epic overload! \m/

[@ultimate0death]

I love the ambient sound that the keyboard adds to every song. Even with his voice, it just defines the song. It's like a chorus of morality.

[@matheusvictor9629]

Darkness... Fear... Life... Cold... Left alone with no will Walking in footsteps of the fallen Blinded by lack of reason Indulging the tales of doom "Farewell May the darkness bind them No one will Remember the pain when we are...gone..." Desolate... Unconscious... Lost... Where lies the ones I've slain? Did I become any wiser? Will their anger hunt me down? Did I sacrifice in vain? "Farewell Hear the sound of solitude No one will Walk the bridge, to darkness overcome" Settlement... Trust... Relief... Dawn... Guide me, watcher in the skies Transform the forces of the dead In my dreams I'll hunt them down I now know the truth

Is it just me, or is this song more about the emotions it gives you rather than the lyrics?

[@jpmisterioman]

Yeah. I'm alot more into how the song and instrumental gonna sound rather than the lyrics.

[@SiriusB88]

I always place the feelings that I get with the instrumental part of every song I listen to over the lyrics. For me the lyrics are mostly secondary in music. But of course I'm talking about my own perception of music. Anyway, I also think this song in particular is very beautiful instrumentally.

They didn't do much in the 90s though, that's true. But they did exist. Enslaved on the other hand formed in 1991 and released their first two albums in 1994, Vikingr Veldi and Frost.
