I told one of my best friends to recommend bands "equal to Opeth" and he recommended me to Leprous, now I listen to Leprous in memory of my friend, he passed away 2 months ago
You're telling me. Been listening to prog metal since 2005 when my friend who started playing guitar burned me a CD of numerous power/prog bands. Just found this band 2 years ago, saw them live last spring. Incredible live performance, entering my top 3 ever (and I've seen all the major players in prog).
Oh man, you're in for a treat friend. All of their albums have their own unique flavor and the band is always growing toward something. Plus I'm a straigt-up fanboy for Einar, he's such a vulnerable singer, it makes singing along feel extremely intimate and personal. Which isn't to say I don't love the backdrop and journey the band weaves together!
I show this song to people who don't like metal because of the guy's angelic voice. I even showed this song to my mom. She said it was *lovely*, but maybe she was lying cause I didn't see any head banging ..

i mean, some songs (like this one and the sky is red) are bangers, but they get boring quite quick, too pop and repetitive imho. The vocalist is really good technically, but his "thing" gets old quick
powergamer6 I suppose it gets interesting considering they fall under this supposed "metal" name. Just imagine what a die hard Slayer-only fan would say about the artsy vocals, the strange chord progressions, tiny amounts of distortion, and the lack of a solo/breakdown/whatever you want to call it. No hate against Slayer though.
***** I LOVE Slayer and I think this is fresh and innovative, reminds me of Dredg's El Cielo and Incubus's SCIENCE era's respectively, not just musically but also because those records just stood out at the time and are still incredible today......
Diego Pujol Me, too. I was listening to Liquid Metal on Serius satellite radio and hear "illuminate" and was hooked at once. They are really dope. They have a new fan in me. Peace from Augusta, Georgia.
I found this band during the pandemic and it really pulled me through the darkness. Saw you live in Chicago and it was amazing. One of my favorite bands of all time now.
Progressive Metal without any -core influence or bias like most modern """prog""" metal bands. Just moving forward with their own sound, not conforming to musical conventions.
Roderick Peterson Very true! I am getting tired of textbook prog bands who think they are being innovative and progressive, when all they do is play a couple of odd time signatures or follow some out-dated Yes-formula

WillEnj0y I gave this thorough listening to this song, and arrived to the conclusion that the last part can't be understood because he's reaching notes not available to human ear.
I am a prog head and a musician..and most of my taste is jazz and prog rock and metal.. I came back to this song just to admire leprous for making my non musical arab father who rejects any kind of heavy music,a big fan and asking me to buy him the album..thank you leprous for being great
I dunno, dude, the live version of And Plague Flowers the Kaleidoscope has some pretty well placed synchronized headbanging. Or maybe it was Of Petrichor Weaves Black Noise... I don't remember, it's been a minute.
I think I found Leprous when I was in the TH-cam rabbit hole a few years ago while listening to Haken. Saw them in March in Charlotte and found the cellist on TikTok and asked if they’d play my favorite song when they are here again tomorrow night. Hope they do! 🤞🏼
Thank God this just randomly started playing after the Black Queen's album was done. I would have never listened to these guys if not. Perfect poker grind session music.

Diego Sheish Rewind is one of the stronger on the album, amongst many weaker songs. I'm a Bilateral guy, these new offerings aren't doing much for me. I do love The Price though.
Alex Kulp I accept your opinion, but I disagree. Sort of. I insist that the album is beautiful all the way through, including Rewind, so we can both agree on that.
2 years ago- This was the first song I had ever heard by Leprous. We were driving to San Francisco taking turns being DJ. My friend Jessie put this one on. I have been listening to them ever since
Please don't get me wrong... this is the first time I've actually heard this band, but do the vocals really sound like something a very heavy version of A-Ha would do? It's enchanting!
Baard Kolstad is Brian Blade level. Neither of them ever fake anything, heart and soul in every hit, sound-conscious tight-pocketed band uniters both. It's so inspiring, as is Leprous' music overall. Gets you going every time. And they are still young, god knows what's still to be expected from them.
9 ปีที่แล้ว +3
I have listened to it twice and have it stuck in my head already, singing it all day long! Nice groove!
Finally! I'm amazed how you guys manage to surprise, expand your music, yet still maintain your own, coherent style. Also big thumbs up for Baard's first record with you!
All of their albums have been very different, and each has been great in its own way. I don't think Leprous will disappoint. Only album I have been eager for this year.
zachary allen enjoy friend! What I’d give to hear them again for the first time. Pick an album any album they’re all different from one another! Enjoy the ride!
that percussive synth-roll theme in the verse is a great touch. intertextually speaking, it ties this tune to Forced Entry, which is practically one of the best Leprous-songs ever written.
It’s always so great to come across new prog bands I’ve never heard before and no one showed me. Just stumbled upon them myself surfing for new prog bands I’ve never heard. 😊😊😊
Need time to accept this change of sound, I really want to get those emotions from this album which I got from Bilateral (mainly) and Tall Poppy Syndrome. Long Live, Leprous, one of the greatest.
absolutely the same here. i love how catchy and at the same time progressive this new leprous is but i still miss the bilateral-type of freshness. i hope this is the Cloak-song of this album so that incan move on to the Valley's and Salt's once the whole thing comes out
Leonid Isachenko I'm not happy about Einar hogging the songwriting duties, regardless of whether the album is good or not. When you have at least two other talented composers in the band then why would you want to restrict their input?
Leonid Isachenko i would like to know what are the changes of sound you say, cause i don't really see significant changes of style... and I actually loved it in the first listen :D
jc matias I don't know really, it seems too "Coal-ish" to me, it's not a bad thing but I think Bilateral just outstanding album, Tall Poppy Syndrome is excellent too, but it's just my opinion. But at other hand it's pretty strange to wait the same, because Leprous is one of those bands that change their sound with pretty every record, so... I don't think this album will be dissapointment, but Bilateral fans know what I'm talking about.
Sebum Jean Hervé Alors dois-je ressortir toutes mes preuves - dont mes nombreuses photos avec eux depuis 2011 et la mèche de dreadlock d'Einar Soleberg que je possède ainsi que les T-shirt et l'intégralité de leurs cd - et aussi les exemplaires de RockHard où c'est eux-mêmes qui s'adressent à moi dans leurs pages pour m'annoncer des nouvelles de mes "ChouChous" comme ils disent ! Y a rien là ?
Beautiful single; what I love most about Leprous is we never know what to expect next! Constantly evolving and creating new richness in their sound.. Can't wait for the rest!
This kind of leans in the direction of bands like TesseracT, I like this new direction, judging from some of the teasers they shared on FB their music is getting a little groovier
Richard Dickson First single from Coal was The Cloak. In my opinion The Cloak was the worst song on entire album. Rest of Coal was pretty good. I'll wait for 25th May. :)
Nebojša Đukanović Not sure The Cloak was the worst, but it was not their most "out there" song definitely, I liked it for what it was, Leprous is really good at writing simple melodic songs, like Mediocrity Wins
I told one of my best friends to recommend bands "equal to Opeth" and he recommended me to Leprous, now I listen to Leprous in memory of my friend, he passed away 2 months ago
Hope it eases the pain 👍🏻
Sorry to hear about your friend. Unfortunately there is no one equal to Opeth. I've been looking for years.
@@erikeakin3279 Soen i think
Sorry to hear about your friend. He sounded like a true man of culture based on his musical tastes
@@erikeakin3279 besides ne obliviscaris, i dont think any band could ever come close to opeth.
that synchronized headbanging
kiss rip-off
@Louis Castro lmao :^)
Made me laugh too!
Its the good kind of cringe lol
I think that if the headbanging is not synchronized something is wrong
Just discovered this band. I honestly feel like a caveman that just seen fire for the first time. Mind blown to smithereens
been looking for this band again forgot about the band name, i just searched for haken and found them again.

Dude, same. I saw them in the lineup of a festival I'm going to so I checked them out and, wow.
Just discovered them today (10/31/23). Right there with you.
i could listen to that beginning on repeat for hours...
same
oooooh oh ooooh oooooooohhh
Only the beginning for two days :D
The beginning reminds me of Queens of the Stone Age kinda
I actually do.
I show this song to people who don't like metal because of the guy's angelic voice. I even showed this song to my mom. She said it was *lovely*, but maybe she was lying cause I didn't see any head banging ..
Prog Ride :c
show it to your grandfather and he will show you his motorcicle)))
I show them The Great Escape from Seventh Wonder.
When they say they love it, I then tell them the song is 30 minutes long.
Then I walk away slowly.
BlackPawn1992 lmao
your mom is the real mvp!!
That subtle high harmony at 4:27 though. What a voice.
So cool I've never paid attention to it until you pointed out.

This was the song that introduced me to Leprous. I remember listening to it for the first time and immediately falling in love with the band!
This band is absolutely amazing.
LOL
I have PTSD and this song can just be taken so much differently lyrically when you hear it this way. Unintentionally beautiful in that sense.
Thank you for sharing your story. I appreciate it.
I love how original these guys sound. I wish I had heard of these guys years ago, this is incredible.
Some advice for anyone listening: go see these guys live. It's so flawless, it will blow you away.
i mean, some songs (like this one and the sky is red) are bangers, but they get boring quite quick, too pop and repetitive imho. The vocalist is really good technically, but his "thing" gets old quick
@@tonyvice6661616 agree to some degree, but what the OP says is also true. They are great live
I was fortunate enough to see them with BTBAM and holy fuck what a show...
@@tonyvice6661616nothing more far from reality. I enjoyed every fucking second watching them live. They were just… mind blowing!
I cannot stop listening to this song. Amazing voice, drums, composition.
I like to think that there are other people that played this song at the exact same time as me and we all are headbanging synchronized with these guys
We are
I love the way the song repeatedly says "Oh hi there, musical convention. Wait no, hang on...fuck you convention, I can do what I want."
Thats so true xD This song sounds as if Bilateral and Coal fucked and had a baby called this song!
***** what exactly about this song is 'unconventional'? I don't hear anything out of the ordinary. It's just a good fuckin' song.
powergamer6 I suppose it gets interesting considering they fall under this supposed "metal" name. Just imagine what a die hard Slayer-only fan would say about the artsy vocals, the strange chord progressions, tiny amounts of distortion, and the lack of a solo/breakdown/whatever you want to call it.

***** I LOVE Slayer and I think this is fresh and innovative, reminds me of Dredg's El Cielo and Incubus's SCIENCE era's respectively, not just musically but also because those records just stood out at the time and are still incredible today......
powergamer6 I feel like it has a conventional enough structure but they add subtleties in each reprise of a part. Like the drums towards the end.
Wow, totally random discovery for me... And I love it, they're amazing!
Diego Pujol
Me, too. I was listening to Liquid Metal on Serius satellite radio and hear "illuminate" and was hooked at once. They are really dope. They have a new fan in me. Peace from Augusta, Georgia.
check out their drummer, he's genius level skilled, baard kolstad
That happened to me about 4 or so years ago. They're incredible live as well.
Same here dude.. Random find whilst listening with top-grade headphones. I was like what...is...this...? 😍😍😍
@@austin7455 a
The Style that drummer has to brush the hair while he's playing... fantastic!
Anyone who likes these guys should check out Soen and Caligula's Horse, they're both killer bands.
don't forget Haken ;)
fuck yeah SOEN!!!!!
And check out Agent Fresco if you want Leprous in a more compact package :)
Hell yea Haken got me into Leprous !!
Yes Soen is fantastic. Very Tool-like. Which is very good.
The drum fill from 3:31 is seriously up there with as one of the best fills I've ever heard. Listen from 3:21 to get the full picture, so epic!
I found this band during the pandemic and it really pulled me through the darkness. Saw you live in Chicago and it was amazing. One of my favorite bands of all time now.
Saw them in Chicago as well. They all are brilliant performers! The live vocals were just as good as the recorded ones.
If you like this, listen to Maraton - Seismic at: th-cam.com/video/bkoVBcRQ24g/w-d-xo.html
Progressive Metal without any -core influence or bias like most modern """prog""" metal bands. Just moving forward with their own sound, not conforming to musical conventions.
Roderick Peterson Then check out Devin Townsend Project ;)
Nuclear Disco Donkey Gotta love Devin Townsend. Saw him in 2013.
I got to tell him that he was awesome. He only replied "you're even more awesome" :')
Roderick Peterson Typical Devin. I think it's safe to say that all his fans love him from the bottom of their hearts.
Roderick Peterson
Roderick Peterson Very true! I am getting tired of textbook prog bands who think they are being innovative and progressive, when all they do is play a couple of odd time signatures or follow some out-dated Yes-formula

WillEnj0y Thought it was "deaf and alone"...
Diego Sheish ya, I figured that after I posted this
WillEnj0y
It fits both, guess we'll have to wait.
WillEnj0y I gave this thorough listening to this song, and arrived to the conclusion that the last part can't be understood because he's reaching notes not available to human ear.

Years go by, they release few albums since then, but oh my god... this song is really special...
The syncronized headbanging is pretty okawesome.
They do that live as well
that's called "rythm", quite useful when you play music... ;)
That intro is one of the most pleasing things I've ever heard, period.
Best progressive metal band around these days, absolutely incredible and always evolving their sound.
So true!
Enalaved is the most relentlessly innovative metal band now and has been since these guys were toddlers...
Alex Paulsen ya, it's really too bad because I liked leprous' first couple of albums, but the last few have been real snoozers for me.
Never read something that stupid on the internet ever x)
These guys are awesome...ive also been listening to haken and native construct
best balance of modernity and vintage touch
Great song and wicked production and arrangement. It's so dry and tight as a drum, but also has some ambience as well. Really really liked it.
OMG....where have these guys been my whole life!!! its like if Tool, Muse, and The Mars Volta has a music baby
oh my god I can't express, how impressed i am with these guys . wow, what a fantastic band.
I just stumbled on this band, and I am immediately in love with them.
That drum groove during the verses is sick!
I drove to Austin from Houston to see these guys and got back at five in the morning. Don't regret it at all.
can't get enough of these guys... I'm totally awestruck ...
Man, CANNOT get enough of this tune. When the chorus drops...
This is the only time I've seen synchronized headbanging that looked kinda cool.
I dunno, dude, the live version of And Plague Flowers the Kaleidoscope has some pretty well placed synchronized headbanging. Or maybe it was Of Petrichor Weaves Black Noise...
I don't remember, it's been a minute.

What are you saying man synchronised headbanging always looks cool
I think I found Leprous when I was in the TH-cam rabbit hole a few years ago while listening to Haken. Saw them in March in Charlotte and found the cellist on TikTok and asked if they’d play my favorite song when they are here again tomorrow night. Hope they do! 🤞🏼
Which song did you ask for, and do they end up playing it?

This is one of the coolest videos, these guys know how great they are, even when most don't.
Leprous never fails. Another great song for their tracklist.
Wow, those 5 minutes and 22 seconds flew by fast. Why haven't discovered this band until now?!
If this is the "weakest/safest" song on the album then I anticipate this is going to be a fucking masterpiece. This is a damn good song.
JohnC546 I think that's Rewind, even then, Rewind is nothing short of a masterpiece.

The synchronized headbanging got my head banging in sync too
Qué armonias por deus! Gracias ShaunTrack!
I'll see them live this summer. I can't wait, they sound great
This is marvellous !
Wow came across these guys accidentally. Love the meshing of different styles (BEAUTIFULLY ). Love discovering new sounds. I am intrigued
This song made my day!
Thanks LEPROUS!
These guys are great!.Rishloo is another beast of a band
And these guys are Norwegian? I'm so proud of what some of my fellow landsmen is able to accomplish.
beardmachine and its not black metal
All hail froggen the bird lord.

Yeah they are, pretty awesome. My favourite norwegian musician atm is Einar Selvik though, such a cool dude. Much love from Sweden :)
