FALLUJAH - Abandon (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

[@ovtheabyss84]

The beauty in loss, tragic thoughts in disguise, I’m worlds away from you

[@equinoxhorizons9342]

Those female vocals of Katie Thompson are a pure revelation, they really add that extra dimension to the song and take it to another level completely. Just checked out her band 'Chiasma' too and they're phenomenal, didn't know progressive metal could get this good!

[@Aetheretic]

Bands this good don't come around that often. Fallujah is one to behold.

[@bretttrumble3305]

So...beautiful... "My god, it's full of stars"

[@StrangeRelatedThing0]

These female vocals are pure beauty.

[@stephansinyard]

I can't stand any singing in metal... but damnnnn she sounded incredible.

[@floydbutselaar6743]

Katie Thompson did the vocals, check out her vocal medley for the album its mind blowing.

[@stephansinyard]

@ғuňţċѧsє ţuċҡғѧяԀ Don't know what Israel has to do with anything. I'm an italian dude from America you dumbfuck. And singing in metal is for whiny pussies.

[@stephansinyard]

@@danielarpentii3088 I've listened to nothing but metal for almost 3 decades now. Singing is generally whack. Metal is what is behind the lyrics. This metal is just melodic enough to permit it. She sounds great.

[@muro4796]

Stephan Sinyard I feel bad for how narrow your taste in music must be if singing in general is an unbearable concept to you

[@Choruseffect]

fallujahs pitch bend/ whammy thing is fucking magical....

[@raiden490]

yeeeees

[@stunningcactus978]

+Choruseffect Fucking right?!

[@Mackathne]

And live it loses 0% of it's power.. I was blown away by how they could perfectly recreate it every song

[@williamhahs1586]

Choruseffect hell yea saw em here in austin fucking phenomenal

[@n0cturnalsurfer]

Scott Carstairs is a phenomenal player. Just saw this is from 8 years ago haha

[@coltontoth2382]

these guys are true musicians absolutely incredible

[@shabado0]

I keep returning to this song and video. Sure I can lament what has become of Fallujah, but what a massive triumph. The aesthetics and direction match this songs tone perfectly. As brutal and massive as the sound is, there is a dark beauty that pervades. Cynic helped usher in stuff like this and should be proud/honored. The guitar solo is perfectly subdued, and if any track ever deserved a fade out it’s this one (doesn’t need it though). No one else nailed atmospherics in tech death like this band. Someday hopefully that torch can be carried

[@OochieTheClown]

I'll drink to that, brother!

[@charlestietje7317]

Irreversible mechanism comes close

[@Flash_510]

hell ya brother

[@MrKezzaRHCP]

I'd go check their latest albuma nd i think you will be super happy!

[@shabado0]

@@MrKezzaRHCPhaha I was just about to say, this comment didn’t age great and the new album was quite the return to form!

[@danielchampion2982]

I almost cried when they said their lead singer was leaving the band. I'm so upset I won't get to see the original line-up live.

[@sacredxgeometry]

Bringing back the front cover of The Flesh Prevails by systematically displaying it in the vid. The shadow creature is slowly enveloping the thinly-veiled model in much the same way as the cover depicts. Now on Dreamless she becomes him. I'm starting to see the concept here and it is fucking beautiful my friends.

[@apocalypse7158]

I also thought that too

[@dchmtl1]

+Exdeath I wish I had thought that.

[@KALLISSTO]

I actually saw it the opposite way. What if Dreamless is really the prequel to TFP symbolically/story wise? because is the cover for tfp it sort of looks like shes leaving that shadow creature behind that we see enveloping her here.

[@KALLISSTO]

come to think, look at the creature in the cover of dreamless and compare to the flesh prevails. might actually be some deep weird story,

[@johncoronado]

That could mean only one thing: Illuminati confirmed.

[@jakeplatt1454]

Still my favourite record of all time.

[@wujBat]

2022 ends - and still have to go back to this one...

[@Herbolife05]

I absolutely adore these female vocals in some of the new songs. It's just that little extra touch to elevate these already amazing songs. Based on the 3 new songs alone I'd say this album is a solid 10/10, one of the best ever.

[@DoriFord]

Too bad it's lacking unique styles for each style... it sounds like all the same song each time, unlike Carnifex 2008 album, for example, in which every song sounds like few different. I love this song, but the whole album made listening boring.

[@afterstars]

DoriFord I feel like you need to listen to the album a few times to really appreciate it. I mean it's great from the beginning but the songs separate and have more character within themselves after a few listens.

[@Suiv666]

Just fell to my knes in middle of school and yelled FALLUJAH RELEASED A NEW SONG!!! And everyone called me a idiot

[@joetd_]

Then your phone started clapping...

[@anemonaloco]

+Among Keep preaching bro, our voices need to be heard!

[@gregorkorompay3455]

Hiking in the forests and on grassy mountain tops, here we fucking go! ..Hands down best artist ever.

[@gregorkorompay3455]

+Emmanuel Fx Thanks man. will try that this weekend. I tent to listen to some post metal stuff or some smart stuff like this. for more darker rainy day in the mountains I recommend to you Wrvth.

[@krowerQ]

this album is a instant buy. great stuff

[@AUM_-po9sc]

Can this Fallujah please return? Especially the vocals. Even if the album won't be spectacular...

[@autumnofoliame6155]

I fell like crying watching this, despite ultraviolet I hope there will be songs like this in the new album...

[@Pendragon372]

The old drummer... He's the best, man.

[@Metal555Fan]

+Wordless Reaction It's the same drummer though, it's still the machine himself Andrew Baird.

[@anthon3919]

such an underrated band

[@azazulsoulmeister7959]

Can't wait to see these guys live in March with Rings Of Saturn, Carnifex, and Lorna Shore. My dream lineup honestly.

[@azazulsoulmeister7959]

If Job For A Cowboy was going too it'd be perfect.

[@TheMartianrebel]

Azazul Soulmeister Nice! Im seeing em in February in Dallas

[@racer24t]

Azazul Soulmeister Im going to one of the first 3 dates here in Phoenix.

[@azazulsoulmeister7959]

Rad, I'll be seeing the only show here in Oregon. I'm super stoked for it because band's I like don't really come through here too often, let alone a whole lineup of band's I like.

[@thomasmooney6134]

FUCK yeah bend oregon. can't fucking wait dopest lineup ever!

[@iDeathDev]

This is the perfection made music!

[@DecipherMetal]

Fallujah is the future of Progressive Death Metal

[@ICEESAreFuckinGood]

[@MrZabersuv]

fucking beautiful, these guys make metal soo damn serene

[@alexsnc6901]

every song i listen from fallujah makes me feel speechless.. how is this even so good

[@Ahtnagarp]

Fallujah and The Faceless is my favorite death metal

[@khorne4901]

The Memberless ;)

[@kvercher12]

The Zenith Passage sounds pretty much exactly like The Faceless (the guitarist is in The Faceless). You should listen to them too.

[@vincentdaniels3513]

Khorne So...here we are again :D

[@ReprogrammedToHate]

This is the kind of band i needed to hear in years, Death Metal has been getting boring to me on the past 5 years but then i just listened to the whole Dreamless CD and i was blown away from the very start. Dragging influences from Cynic, Atheist and even Radiohead. Never stop, guys. Please

[@arch92]

hmm I think as far metal goes, you should probably check out Caligulas Horse, Haken, Leprous, Ni Obliviscarus. Just some of the prog metal bands that do a lot of work.

[@theone1949]

Between the Buried and Me

[@BingusHammer]

Ne Obliviscaris :p

[@errorcode99]

Also Persefone, Hope for the Dying and Black Crown Initiate. All progressive/death metal.

[@ReprogrammedToHate]

Ne Obliviscaris is amazing! I have Portal of I on 2XLP even thought it costed so much when i ordered it.

[@TheDanD]

It's good to see some actual goodness and artistry in the meme ridden scene that is modern Metal.

[@joshstorie246]

Dan D I feel sorry for you iff this is what you call metal

[@muro4796]

@@joshstorie246 What do you call it? I'm curious

[@orionbekesi]

@@joshstorie246 growls, heavy guitars and blast beats are apparently not metal because there are some other elements in it. So what is it? Rap? Pop? Electronic music?

[@Kjertinge]

These guys are so underrated. They will rise to be on top for sure. Can't believe I only learned of these guys a year ago :0

[@HoundXXII]

These are the kind of vocals that Animals as Leaders need.

[@tonykratos]

That would be sick

[@jonasgoldenburg3154]

AAL music is self-sufficient

[@SinMxchine]

Who could not love this band?

[@Ataraxxian]

The direction of Death Metal with the atmospheric feel of an outer body experience, releasing the melancholy mindset for a moment, it's what I've longed for. Bringing me adrift through the soft touch of the breeze, sifting through my skin. The heroism of becoming one when you look up to the sky. The suns rays passing through the aligned clouds, reaching down to give away it's light in a brave new world. Hope shines in the darkness that we live in. Beauty lies much farther away, but it's never forgotten, buried and lying in wait to be embraced. Extreme metal has such an impact on me that it's taught me to keep a warm heart and an open mind. There are few bands that can giveaway an emotional journey within the heaviest parts of music. Fallujah is one of those bands.

[@colinserbu2006]

Thomas Lazenby well said. You have any more of that acid.

[@radhwangothic]

Wooow this is awesome, can't wait for the album. It is more progressive than the old records. As I'm from Fallujah city in Al Anbar. I'm so proud. Well done guys. ❤️

[@gregorkorompay3455]

+Radhwan Jubair At least those gus will bring some people to what really happened in Fallujah.

[@radhwangothic]

+Gregor Korompay That is absolutely right, I was living there during the war when all the mayhem started. i still remember the days when corpses were in the street for days just like a zombie apocalypse. I'm glad I made it outside!

[@Marksman5147]

+Radhwan Jubair Are you still living there now?

[@radhwangothic]

No I left Iraq a year ago and I'm currently living in US.

[@FUalll]

You speak in your sleep Tell me everything you feel I promised you But I must abandon you alone I don't know where I will go Can love carry us home? The beauty in loss Tragic thoughts in disguise I'm worlds away from you, saving you Reclaiming you Failure as father But I go where you can't follow Eden is not a myth Life of despair is something we can't accept The stars will guide my path To the soil's next breath For now you must accept I wander alone at no one else's expense I must abandon you to the squalor Starvation and sorrow You speak in your sleep As I set free every tear in me Time has come and gone But I'll always recall everything you were

The music, musicianship and composition is amazing, just magnificent. Did lose me on this track when the random female vocals came in (worked great on "the Void Alone" but not so much on this track) for a little bit, but it resolved very nicely. Though the Harvest Wombs is still my favorite, this album is fantastic. Visually, this video is on point, beautiful actress/model in the video as well.
