[@TinKnocker69]

Definitely some of the best shit ever written. Great weight lifting music.

they say it's just screaming, then why tf does it make me cry? i guess they'll never get the point, it's just a shame.

[@BradCynical]

6 Light 6 Ning 6 the lore and emotion they get across in this songs is so impressive and so disheartening when you can't explain it to people

[@salazarwarlok2244]

People can be ignorant to awesome song writing. It is a shame but is also good in a way. Either way this song is excellent

[@spitz5183]

Because singing is what they’ve been exposed to all their life, so screaming is unusual to them. As a result, they don’t see any musical element in it and just consider it “noise”.

[@the_furry_inside_your_walls639]

@@BradCynical Not just lore and emotion, but the writing too. Let's not forget that Shadow of Intent is capable of originality with their lyrics, even if their first two albums are about Halo.

[@sisig2419]

i have lost all I had, everything I am, everything I once was: now a shadow on the ground, a memory that couldn't be anything more than sorrow and fury I will never see home again, Never comfort my wife as she mourns Never hear the cries of my firstborn son How can I possibly continue on? That is why, with music those lyrics are just too beautiful.

4:09 just listen to the sound of the cymbals, how can someone not be in love with this genre of music

[@pantryraider1353]

I love all of the Halo references and the fact that the name of their band is the same as my favorite covenant cruiser: The Shadow of Intent, which is the cruiser of all of the friendly covie forces in Halo 3 are on.

[@djolegusman]

i mean their music literally was about Halo up until the latest album

After about my trillionth listen to of this album, this is low-key my favorite song. The shear raw, powerful, and captivating emotion they emit at 4:09 draws me in every time. Thanks for posting this!

[@cbl6520]

If you play that part while watching the scene in DBZ where trunks goes super saiyan for the first time, it fits surprisingly well. :p

[@larrydalobsta1870]

FatalPurpose This entire album is amazing but there's not a single song that comes close to this fucking song. This is an Epic, it paints such a clear picture, it creates the perfect atmosphere, it draws forth emotion, this song is everything

buying this album soon. within the first few seconds of the album, I knew I had stumbled upon something profoundly unique and powerful. I literally laughed outloud with surprised joy when I first heard it and knew I had almost an hour ahead of me of this stuff.

[@Blackthorn869]

Fuck, I did not think I could like these guys any more than I do, but their lyrics are fucking legendary. Even if I was unfamiliar with the Halo lore, these lyrics are sicker than chemo patients.
