Gives off an Agalloch vibe sort of. Truly majestic.

[@werewolf2a595]

❤

[@Leshocs1]

Ладно ,это было чарующе и прекрасно!!!

[@deathquazars9654]

This does remind me of Gothic Americana bands or onemanbands. To cut a lot there was Antic Clay. The vibes of undifferentiated fields and ether along us.

[@darkwolf8422]

Super

[@frequencemetal]

un peu de douceur dans ce monde de riff 😍

[@Mrbig2098-bu5my]

Greetings from Sri Lanka! 🇱🇰

[@joshuamartinpryce8424]

Embracing someone is taking on new challenges

[@fjm457]

I hope we get a proper version of this song recorded at some point

[@The_Lame_Flames]

Is this version of this song from video different than the one released digitally as single? I Iike more this one rather than the one from the single

[@jonkipling2605]

Needs more blastbeats

[@colored_lonely]

I think this is the right time to make Saor a full band, not just one man band.

[@Z4nnibal]

I think Saor has effectively always been a full band (except for the debut album?), just not with official members. So it wouldn't really change much. The last song of Forgotten Paths was apparently entirely (including the songwriting) done by 2 musicians from the band Eard and doesn't include Andy at all. Also, a full band would completely screw up Andy's income, so I doubt it'll ever happen. I think the future of music is these kind of projects with 1-2 official members and then hired session musicians to fill the rest of the band, if needed. For better or worse.

[@cindyguillen6875]

AGALLOCH

[@dungeonmasterblaster5600]

So....i didn't come here for a skyrim singalong. Kinda a bummer.

[@Transilvanian90]

Yeah, it's pretty dull.

[@jasonmorman5722]

Disappointed but I get it.

[@downshift4life]

Beautiful, but the first two minutes of monotony have almost put me off.

[@Transilvanian90]

Whole thing is monotous tbh

[@joannitaxvi3386]

boring as hell

[@Psychopharmacologic]

White Metal ? Opposite of Black Metal?

[@GrossePutea5Dollards]

This is black metal.. Atmospheric Black Metal with folk influences.. Black Metal is so much more than just dark themes. There a national romantism sentiment in the music.. and white metal is a name for chrisitan metal...Another noob thinks BM is just about ''eVil'' .. lol

[@SimOmega47]

Trying to steal Loreena McKennitt fans lol? A bit too cheesy, unoriginal and cliché for my tastes, especially the lyrics. A tune I'll constantly skip on the album. Amidst the Ruins is a 9.5/10 though! I already lived in an ecovillage. A small hippie-style community, "under the leaves" with consensus democracy. Definitely not a dream. Nothing works, everyone is cold, dirty & hungry, psychological issues plague decision-making and social unity. It's nice in the summer when temporary people come by to have fun, but long term, when cold months settle in, it's 90% hard and demoralizing unless you're within a very good community. Sadly, there are deep functional reasons why hierarchical societies prevailed.

[@RavenSister666]

First: I like SAOR for many years, I´m happy, that I could see them live once. But: I totally agree with you, I miss the strength, the power...

[@SimOmega47]

@RavenSister666 I'll allow Saor to have a couple soft songs here and there, explore different styles. For example Exile, on Forgotten Paths album was soft, but still had a great unique touch and feel. Even without lyrics, it carried a story. Sylvan Embrace here just doesn't reach Saor's usual quality of writing. A generic celtic cliché song that could have been written with AI lol.

[@katyirizarry232]

Spoiler alert: the eco commune "under the leaves" in a failing democracy is just a tent city in San Francisco

[@Transilvanian90]

100% agreed; I love Amidst the Ruins, and all previous albums, but this is dreadfully dull.

[@Soviet_Saguaro]

This is the most idiotic comment I've read in awhile for multiple reasons

[@ndwind]

I don’t know, you guys like this song? it’s harmonically dull as shit, going nowhere. Guardians was the last adorable album by Saor, unfortunately

[@Transilvanian90]

I love Saor, and I generally like ballads. But literally nothing happens here. It's kinda just... boring. Nowhere near as good as Amidst the ruins or any previous songs.
