Gris - Il Etait Une Forêt (+ Lyrics)

[@yaroslav64]

I dont know about you guys but when I listen to great DSBM like this I dont feel sad or depressed, I am in awe. I'm in awe of how someone can translate their feelings, seemingly their lives to such a simple medium and convey it with such beauty. It makes me think of the beauty in having any emotions this strong regardless of positive or not. It makes me feel alive in a way.

[@Jenrockerlml]

yaroslav64 Yes, living these emotions in such an intense way, that truly makes you feel alive.

[@klearkhoswashokani1797]

of fucking course, this is the mode we should listen to such works of art

[@beelzebub1349]

slightly less rough english translation: There was a forest where the avarice of men was nothing more than the shadow of a heavy past There was a forest where the bark of the trees reflected the beauty of a lost world There was a forest where the song of the night woke the sun of another life There was a forest where the sanctuary of the heavens watered the desiccated lands of the gods

[@studiominhson]

La vie, ce n'est que des émotions. Cette chanson en transmet un tas... Life is, only emotions. This song gaves us a lot...

[@jeremysoreille5309]

The most beautiful Black Metal album i ever heard.

[@Tarik_Molotov]

I'm not even really into DBM but I can't get enough of this for some reason.

[@skunkpaste]

[@misaelhernandez8990]

Hermosa forma de plasmar melancolía en una expresión tan caótica y serena al mismo tiempo .

[@luuuzp1502]

+Misael Hernández tienes toda la razon xD

[@BlackShadyFloyd]

Il était une forêt... La meilleure chanson non instrumental du très grand groupe GRIS!!! Dédié a mon ame soeur pour toujours LA FORÊT...

[@Capriscorps]

[@Martialbenoitmusic]

@Brucey6666 : au niveau de la musique et des textes je trouve ça super beau... Je pense aussi que l'album doit s'aprécier en entier...comme tout album.

[@Liriic1235]

Cette chansson c est tou simplement un cher d œuvre :)

[@6481726]

A great masterpiece!

[@shma1234567]

vivre la marginalité, le monde est chiants sans ces personnes spéciales qui font vibrer nos coeurs comme gris, il n'y a pas juste le putin de musique pop de MERDE qui passe a la radio, il y a aussi des masterpiece comme les chansons de gris, all hail to gris. Its not that we are suicidal or something, we just enjoy another side of the life that the normal people dont like... greetings from quebec

[@ilkomatev9250]

[@timothysway8769]

no words.Great

[@esca8652]

This is actually very listenable, incredibly epic DBM, the emotion is so intense, it gives me chills at points, this is definitely the most emotional and heavy genre i've heard of.

[@Seaknifed]

Il était une forêt où la cupidité de l'homme n'était plus que l'ombre d'un lourd passé Il était une forêt où l'écorce des arbres reflétait la beauté d'un monde perdu Il était une forêt où le chant de la nuit éveillait le soleil d'une autre vie Il était une forêt où le sanctuaire des cieux abreuvait les terres desséchées des dieux Il était une forêt... Il était une forêt... Il était une forêt... Il était une forêt...

[@metaldude1011]

i love the genre, it's so beutifull, great emotions and feelings, makes me really feel better.

[@shaddar666]

amazing

[@martaroth]

the old name for this band is call : Niflheim, from Canada. An awesome DSBM band

[@UnspokenBlasphemy]

my favorite depressive black metal band...so beautiful

[@coeursanguin]

Lyrics in Actual English: There was a forest where man's greed was nothing more than the shadow of a dark past. There was a forest where the tree's bark reflected the beauty of a lost world. There was a forest where the night's song woke up the sun of another life. There was a forest where the sky's sanctuary watered the ground dried up by the gods.

[@EnjoyCocaColaLight]

I want to die to this song. Not have a coffin carried away to it or shit.. I want to spend my last nine minutes and thirtyseven seconds listening to this before my heart stops beating.

[@andrewmiroslawski1083]

English to French translation... There was a forest where the greed of man was only a shadow of a heavy past There was a forest where the bark of the trees reflected the beauty of a lost world There was a forest where the song of the night awakened the sun of another life There was a forest where the sanctuary of heaven watered the parched lands of the gods There was a forest... There was a forest... There was a forest... There was a forest...

[@labuchehenry9082]

[@D34TH30RY]

:O!!! A MASTER PIECE!!!! 5/5 without doubt

[@M3talThrash1ngMad]

just stumbled on this from a Peste Noire video and this is absolutely insane!!

[@Nargatroll]

Hello everybody. You can buy the CD on Amazon, but hurry up, only 6 pieces left in stock... It's also available on Sepulchral Production's website (shipped from Québec). If you like, buy it, you won't regret. It's a DSBM masterpiece, a travel into solitude, despair, and about hatred of this world. Their next record is about to be available, but they are so enigmatic, they don't say anything about it... (Sorry if I did mistakes in English) Greetings from France. -Nargatroll

[@jeremysoreille5309]

Je confirme. Le plus bel album de black metal qu'il as jamais été donné d'écouter. Cet album est un voyage au coeur de la solitude et du désespoir. Un voyage durant lequel on se retrouve face aux facettes les plus répugnantes et les plus méprisables de l'homme. En bref, un tour de force.

[@FieryLittleRaven]

@coeursanguin thank you .... wish there was more

[@spectre.shadows]

There was a forest Where the greed of man Was a shadow of a heavy past There was a forest Where tree bark Reflected the beauty of a lost world There was a forest Where the song of the night Awakened the sun of another life There was a forest Where the sanctuary of heaven Drenched the parched lands of the gods There was a forest... There was a forest... There was a forest... There was a forest...

[@AlecksHELLbandit]

Buy his CD. Il était une forêt. If you can't find it on the net, you should call cd dealers in quebec they can send it to you via mail at no charge. Support great artist like this.

[@duhnegru]

it's their logo. i think the left side represents the death, while the right one the life. there is one more version of the logo, you can find it on metal archives

[@shma1234567]

gâte toi champion :O

[@esca8652]

listening to this with your lights off is scary hehe. This would be an abomination on shrooms.

[@PauloMota]

[@pcmbc7]

[@Mmvdm94]

perfect..

[@louisNEED]

obscure,sadness ,great,enjoy graves and silence

[@Thelordbaphomet]

@1TheMidnightSun1 Indeed you are right, translated properly its "There was a forest". If it was "It was a forest" the lyrics in french would have been "C'était une forêt". I would know, my mothertongue is french ;) But the most important is that people understand and its a small detail i guess.

[@phatty2x4]

This is so fucking good. I just can't put it into words.

[@TheAntih]

@BornToDie90 the vocals make this song complete

[@magnus12g7]
