MOONSPELL - Medusalem (Official Lyric Video) | Napalm Records

[@glindsay7732]

I miss being able to turn on the radio and hearing this kind of music every day.

[@Ali-xf8gy]

criminally, criminally underrated song. perfection in every department, guitars, lyrics, vocals

[@edgarcarreira8020]

Agree..

[@SembhatSeg]

Love the farsi speech by female vocals سرزمین شیر و عسل سرزمین غم و درد شن های طلایی سرخ شده به رنگ خون ما میرهانیم شما را از قفل و زنجیرها 🤝💞

[@Judasziege]

If you wonder who's the woman speaking farsi, you can find her on youtube under the name "Mahafsoun".

[@jonathancollins8595]

Riddlechen92 she brought me here❤

[@mardukpersian-zx4sv]

interesting cause she is talking about my city, Shiraz,🤘

[@siavashghorbanzadeh5421]

سرزمین شیر و عسل ، سرزمین غم و درد ،شن هایی طلایی سرخ شده به رنگ خون ، ما می رهانیم شما را از قفل و زنجیر

[@chrisWolfricVader19]

Why does Moonspell has to be so good?

[@wolfheart8929]

Because they have listened good music and good bands.

[@Ali-xf8gy]

this should have at least as double views as it has. so many people are missing out on such beauty

[@jiritapal2347]

Full of energy, the power of this song is unbelievable.

[@jonathancollins8595]

Mahafsoun brought me here and I'm addicted.

[@AntonioGil0]

I must admit that I like more the "lyric videos" rather than the "live action" videos :P The animations are fantastic :D

[@jvidia]

One of the best MEtal albums in 2015!

[@thadavidrain]

The overall atmosphere of this song is unreal. I'm always a sucker for incorporating a different culture in metal music. Alcest did it in Kodama by adding Japanese influences. I did not know Moonspell had put Middle Eastern influences in a song. Congratulations! This is awesome! Good to know. Will love to see them live here in their native country since I never actually saw them :/

[@Aegianlulz]

I love metal mixed with middle eastern sounds too...check out Myrath and Orphaned Land, they have alot of middle eastern folk elements in their music

[@21willyx21]

Hey, you can also try Melechesh

[@CarlosSchmidt101]

Rotting Christ is another one.

[@christophersanabria3189]

I have to say that this song is a master piece of the art, great animation as well, simply great music, thanks for posting it, now I'm ready to buy the album!

[@metaphisica]

Best music from Extinct! / Melhor música do Extinct!

[@aiatgamer375]

For those who are wondering, the Farsi bit in the middle is just a part of the chorus in Farsi.

[@crowmoon9556]

Heard this song for the first time yesterday, and cant, stop, listening!

[@KabooM1067]

What exactly is the message behind this song? What is medusalem? Is it referring to a real place or is it just to sound exotic? We shall free you? Are they talking about Jerusalem?

[@habeebmaali9261]

I want to know too😕

[@TheGoldblaze]

Its an amalgam between Medusa, which would sexually entice men to her den where she would turn them into stone and Metusalem, which is a term for someone real old. In other words, it likely represent something in the lines of old lust.

[@KabooM1067]

@@TheGoldblaze Finally an answer after 4 years xD. Thank you. I will have to listen to it again and see if I understand it now lol.

[@KabooM1067]

@@TheGoldblaze man this song is awesome... my portuguese friend introduced me to Moonspell back then but then totally forgot about them. This song is sick. About the lyrics... I still don't fully understand them. Is this imaginary place called Medusalem a metaphor for lust and being entrapped by it?

[@chickenblaster]

Play at 3/4 speed, it is really great! The guitar ssd's sounds heavier!!

[@dimurado]

Этот шедевр сногшибателен!!!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Ориентальные мотивы уносят сознание в отдельную реальность и создают особую магическую атмосферу! Это настоящий Вулкан чувств!

[@СоюзМультфильм-р6у]

Не смог пройти,оригинальный,очень даже полноценный коммент.Я скажу проще 25лет кайфа,лучшее что Португальская земля породила

[@chuax77]

Hace rato no escucho a Ribeiro y sus huestes pero este tema es excelente..aun creo que abusa de las Reminiscencias de los Sisters pero de igual manera creo que es un gran tributo a esa legendaria banda!!!simplemente canción incrible!!!!

[@jessyaraujo]

Que música sensacional!!! Minha preferida até o momento.

[@AentikDranikan]

amaaaaaaaaaaazing album do more like this!!!! the mysticism of wolfheart needs to be mre exploited but nice nice!!!!! excellent work

[@ayyazcmt4149]

Great instrumental work throughout the song.

[@DyslexicGod]

Reminds me of Sisters of Mercy.

[@Ramlessness]

I got The 69 Eyes vibes personally. I even thought this song was paying tribute to them as they have a song called Jerusalem.

[@kamilpersepolis2435]

Music,vocal, test... Excellent.

[@artu.rincon]

This was my instant favorite song when i first heard the album :D It's great for it to get a video

[@carolinapadilla6814]

Excelente!!! Moonspell en su totalidad, tiene elementos de cada etapa del grupo, me encantan.

[@barz4kh]

اینجا شیراز سرزمین غم و درد،شنهای طلایی.سرخ شده به رنگ خون،ما می رهانیم شما را از قفل و زنجیرها

[@ERMediaOfficial]

I just love this song. I really like Moonspell and they have some amazing music but this song just speaks to me, no fucking idea why, but it's amazing. So yeah, big fan^^

[@mardukpersian-zx4sv]

I'm from Shiraz. Nice lyrics

[@medusalemneaman4698]

My name is Medusalem ....wow

[@capsulecorp6975]

What is Medusalem or what does it mean?

[@anneliesnap7478]

Hel no

[@Rqoiz]

Sounds really good. What type of genre would you call this? Doom?

[@EmpiresDawn]

More like Goth Rock. But anyway, fuck genres. Good music, bad music, that is all.

[@ShadowmakeResistance]

Rqoiz HA HA DOOM ? it's only stupid rock & roll

[@deanejeffery]

Im a big fan of Symphonic metal and metal in general. If I would put it to a particular genre it would be Symphonic gothic progressive metal.

[@chromaxd26]

D Jeff aside from the buzouki, there s nothing progressive in here tho

[@Fapnyr]

@@deanejeffery lmao what a nerd

[@orion9178]

Can someone please explain to me what the meaning or story behind this song actually is? I've been trying to figure out and have been left clueless for a while now.

[@Metalfm666Metal]

Yes...

[@roaddogg800]

Awesomeness! Need this album

[@RicardoPestana]

Pretty obvious Sisters of Mercy influence on this song

[@nocturnalflare8457]

Yeah, it reminds me of Temple of Love

[@maddrop]

Almost a rip-off ;)

[@marshallore6869]

love the font

[@christospapas9281]

i really hope the next album will be the same good like this one :)

[@TruzziSlayer]

Fernando, during an interview, said that the next work will be the "son" of Extinct, not 1755 (he didn't use exactly this words, but the meaning is this 😂)

[@KatarzynaAnnaWilk]

Beautiful song \m/ Moonspell is amazing \m/

[@MaxGiudice]

Very good song ! Congratulations !

[@luieortega9495]

This is brilliant! A kick-ass song!

[@JohnThornburgh]

Awesome song and album!

[@TheORACLEOFDEATH]

I want the female farsi lyrics...

[@Sadix99]

I have it written in arabic in the CD book, i can send a picture of it to you if you want. :) (sorry for bad english, that's not my language... )

[@TheORACLEOFDEATH]

+Sadix oh thank you so much! Arabic and Farsi use the same letters :) do you have kik?

[@Sadix99]

Sahab Mas No I don't have Kik, I don't know what it is, but you can contact my facebook page (Sadix) with the same picture as my yt channel, i could send you it there.

[@TheORACLEOFDEATH]

+Sadix i messages you on Facebook :)

[@anyaevia8707]

look up mahafsoun on youtube. she's the one who said that in farsi. :)

[@joaoguimaraes4993]

Pena as nossas rádios não passarem esta banda, e outras do género...já não há um Antonio Sérgio para a descoberta de novos sons portugas....uma miséria as nossas rádios chungas com música chunga.

[@ВиталикПрокопьев-ж2х]

"Extinct"-сильная работа мастеров dark metal!

[@PeterConan]

тут не поспоришь

[@vnzt22]

Carrega Moonspell!

[@RicardoAndre88]

I think this music is inspired in Caim, the brother of Jesus

[@moorgott666]

Does anyone know what the woman was singing? Was that Persian?

[@sanapril13]

Yes! She's Mahafsoun!

[@RuiMSilva]

moorgott666 I can't understand very well what she is saying, it's my friend beautiful Foroogh Kardansani (aka Mahafsoun) speaking Farsi.

[@moorgott666]

Rui Silva Ok thank you for the information. Since she is your friend could you ask her what she was singing :) ? I am very interested in oriental culture and music.

[@moorgott666]

Sandra Orozco Quesada Thank you. BTW the album is absolutely great, I have bought it right after it came out and I have to say it can easily compete with Wolfheart and Irreligious, they are all on one level and Extinct is one of the albums I listened most to this year.

[@RuiMSilva]

moorgott666 She's very away lately and hard to get in touch with, but this is her rough translation I got from the farsi text: "Land of heroes, land of sorrow and pain. Golden sands coloured by blood. We will release you from slavery and chains." :D In romanized farsi it would be something like: "Sarzamin shiran zamin, sarzamin Ghamo o dard , shenhae talaei sorkh shode be range khoon, ma mirahanim shoma ra az ghofl o zanjier" Hope I could help, I'm no expert and she's been hard to get a word from :p

Внезапно! Новый альбом уступает только "Sin/Pecado".

ты серьёзно? То есть тебе в голову почему-то пришёл Син Пекадо, который рядом не валялся с тем же опиумом или волчьим сердцем.

Feathers, assassins... and the oriental element. Don't know why the first assassin's creed comes in my mind

[@materiaoscura3928]

[@TheDipstick15]

Fantastic song but it's reminiscent of sisters of mercy temple of love

[@diogogoncalves5549]

OK, we are in Portugal and we have a shitty Rock in Rio compared to Brasil's, Moonspell is Portuguese and they were present in Brasil and they will not be in Rock In Rio Portugal... this is our media in Portugal, try to make us swallow the pop culture instead of put our great bands in the stage, we have so many.. And Portguese people barely know them cause of the system.. this makes me sad..

[@SockLove]

i wanted to go, but after seeing the artist i just said "fuck no"

[@diogogoncalves5549]

I went to see korn.. it was what it was.. wasted money..

[@somekindofangel01]

You had Moonspell in 2016 in Vagos Metal Fest and they will be back this year! Rock in Rio should be called Pop in Rio in Portugal.

[@pedroduarte6956]

Diogo gonçalves Nao podia estar mais de acordo

[@maddrop]

A culpa é só do povo... A qualidade intelectual do espectador faz a qualidade do evento que é oferecido... Se quem vai a esses festivais, na sua maior parte, são betos acéfalos é claro que as bandas serão para ao seu nível, para assim agradar quem paga...

who or what is "Medusalem"?

It sound like a city in Israel, but Medusalem is very probably hypotetical. :)
