FOR A VOICE LIKE THUNDER
RECITATION I
O for a voice like thunder, and a tongue To drown
the throat of war! When the senses are shaken,
and the soul is driven to madness, Who can stand?
When the souls of the oppressed fight in the
troubled air that rages, who can stand?
When the whirlwind of fury comes from the
Throne of God, when the frowns of His
countenance drive the nations together,
who can stand? Who has caused this?
O for a voice like thunder,
and a tongue To drown the throat of war!
When the senses are shaken and the soul is drivento madness,
Who can stand?
When the souls of the oppressed fight in the troubled air that rages,
who can stand?
When the whirlwind of fury comes from theThrone of God,
when the frowns of His countenance drive the nations together
RECITATION II
When Sin claps his broad wings over the battle,
and sails rejoicing in the flood of death;
When souls are torn to everlasting fire,
and fiends of hell rejoice upon the slain
Who has caused this? Who can stand?
Who can answer at the throne of God?
The Kings and Nobles of the land have done it!
Hear it not, Heaven, thy ministers have done it!
The Kings of the land have done it!
O for a voice like thunder, and a tongue To drownthe throat of war! When the senses Are shaken,and the soul is driven to madness,
O who can stand? O who has caused this?
RECITATION III
The Kings and the Nobles of the land have done it!
Hear it not, Heaven,
thy ministers have done it!
The Kings of the land have done it! - เพลง
Hits different in 2023
HOW ABOUT NOW ??
DOES IT HIT 🎯 ........... ‼️
I was sold on this band the minute I discovered them.
Same 🤟
+1 man.. They make me proud to be Greek
When like 1985 lol
@@miachrst ok
You Me ?😂
I have loved metal since I was in my early teens waaaay back in 1982 or 1983. I have searched for music like this for many years, and although I found great music along the way, I never found exactly what I was looking for. THIS is what I have been looking for for 35 years.
I feel you bro!
Same here! Been listening to metal since my early teens, found a lot of awesome bands, but never quite what I was exactly looking for... Until about a month ago, when I discovered these Greek gods! After more than ten years of metal journey, I guess I can say I have reached my destination! Non serviam! \m/
First of all i don't say it's the same, better or any other comparison. But give a listen to the only Dominion Caligula album. You might just like it as well. Unfortunately, there's no other and there won't be another.
You rock, Rotting Christ was my -favorite- up there with NILE in my teens. And they both are still around - glad they bring metalheads together
If you don't know them, google Behemoth. Especially the song Blow Your Trumpets Gabriel
This band is on another level....
And fuck Sakis and his band are really so friendly. Saw them so often. Best Black Metal
@@karolineammon3070 yes indeed, every concert i visited near me i could talk to them
Totaly agree with you
For REAL tho
I been listening since the year 2000 I think. I love how they have evolved and built this wicked sound. The more gothic sounding songs are my favorites. But I like seeing the look on someone’s face the first time they hear something like the 4th night of revelation lol
Sakis is on the absolute top on my list of people I would want to have a beer or seven with.. Intelligent human being. At 53 I love R.C! Keep it up guys.
I was sold also when i discovered them, thy mighy Rotting Christ, back around 1989they where always a class of their own!!! Greece 🇬🇷 was fertile soil for many damn good bands,to name a few ; necromantia, zemial, thou art lord, astarte, necromass, naos, septic flesh etc....🤘 grtz J. 🐈⬛....🇧🇪
7 years ago, but always a relevant song
One of my favorite Rotting Christ songs!!!🤘🏻🤘🏻👌🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
This is art
+Tubby Mclumpkins Your pic ?
DAYUM, Varg was a cutie.
The best Black metal band in the planet.
I'm a newcomer to this band. I wasn't ready for this level of pure awesomeness, but I'll make do. This is why I spend hours seeking new music that really speaks to me, because when you finally slog through enough generic shit, you find something like this.
im so happy for you brother, this band is 35 years old with more than 14 albums to discover, a unique band that will remain in history for ever, non serviam brother
Awesome band! Awesome name! Singing the truth!
My favourite bit of this song has to be when he says *"Who has caused this?"* - the voice is just so haunting and threatening.
Im trying to find more menacing and empowering metal, do you have any recommendations?
Amon Amarth, Septicflesh
rip i already listen to them :l
Creature Creator they are also dagoba, gojira, arcania, moonsorrow, celtic frost, trivium, machine head, eluveitie, rhe forehadowing, in flames, massacra, sepultura, trust, opeth
....and after the answer eighthly on speech sound. Much more power than shouting!
This is one of the best songs, very underrated.
"Who can stand? When the whirlwind of fury comes from theThrone of God?" That's a really good question. William Blake was clearly a mystic of the nothingness. I really like this dark metaphysic thoughts.
Check out Ulver's "Williams Blake's The Marriage of Heaven and Hell". It's arguably his best written work put to music.
This song makes me tear up real deep stuff...
Is there a rotting christ song similar to this one?
@@dbrito96i dont think excactly the same, but you have to check also all albums of rotting christ, aealo album its about war too
i would give this piece of art a million likes if i could
Si eu !
Sadly it doesn't even have a million views

Gods of metal
Nick Holmes yelling at the beginning makes this piece something else!
jajajajajaj
In the peak of greatness, Rotting Christ will stand.
They’re incredible. Possibly most favorite band of all time. Never stop coming back for more.
They’re very misunderstood by some. People confuse the Bible with sunshine and roses lol totally not the case. If you want to read a violent tale of misery then look no further than the Bible
The heaviest song in metal history, this is the RC channel, we don’t judge…. Just bow to the masters
Amazing vocals!! Oh my, I'm in love.
HELL AS είμαστε πρώτοι στα πάντα η φωνή του μοιάζει με ΚΕΡΑΥΝΟ 😉ROTTING CHRIST FOR EVER. ...ΖΗΤΩ Η ΕΛΛΑΔΑ
From the start till ends! Rt Christ ❣️
I can stand and I’m immortal when I listening this ♥️
This band is amazing their music is outstanding
Going to see them live next friday, in Quito Ecuador, is going to be at a small place, speaks of their humility and their love for art and not for money.
I found my voice like thunder. It sounds like that growling scream at 1:15, and it scares the hell out of those who need to hear that fiery blast of truth long hidden in the deep, dark abyss of time. 🤘😈🤘
This song is always current, but now especially
Respects to the greek masters \,,/
hail
Hail Rotting Christ!
Truth man lol.when I learned they hailed from Greece I was pleasantly surprised.if this is the metal Greece can offer we need to get all of it exposed to more people around the globe.
@@richardpeterson3753 have you herd of varathron? Or thou art lord? Hell, even gentihaa?
WTF : GREAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Nick, and Thank R.C you're the best.
This is why I'm here. Who can stand!!
My beard grew a beard !
The battle could Only told that perfect from a Greek.
The intro always gives me goosebumps
I imagine a battle outside a castle in the middle of a dark rainy night
Triumphant and powerful riffs.
Best lyric to listen while working out in the gym, who can stand ?
..................... WHO CAN STAND .................. ‼️
🔥🌍🕊
Ooooo ależ piękne...nie do opisania 🖤Potęga do ostatniej sekundy🖤
i lived in a so called WG, a conglomerate of different people in one apartment. one of them turned the back at me, didn't pay the rent or any costs.
it ended up he destroyed everything in my room and robbed me.
I discovered this song these days.
Who can stand? it was me, cause i did not turn against!
Mit das GEILSTE was ich die letzte Zeit gehört habe, muss ich unbedingt mal live sehen
massive respect to you guys from india...
Sunteți extraordinari, de când v-am găsit nu mai mă satur de voi. Exact pe gustul meu. Bravo oameni frumoși
αρρωστο λεμε!!!
Who needs drugs to get high when there is Rotting Christ?
Rotting Christ+drugs=amazing
I do they make it better :)
Mi esposo
@@jeffreykuhn7799 excelente mezcla
with drugs its sounds amazing
On judgement day when God rides, this is the music that will thunder down from the heavens and fill the earthlings with dread and wonder and joy.
“Who can Stand, is man. Who caused this was God.”
The nobles, the kings, the ministers have caused this. The ones in power over the poor and oppressed. It's more a political and social statement of Blake' time, not so much a religious one about God.
this is a brutal piece of art
I am in awe.
I'm tellin ya rotting christ are genius in music. And theology. Magick and all senses. Quit gentleman also.
This song is about the Battle of Towton.Probably the bloodiest in the history of England.It was a total massacre...Where both sides decided not to take prisoners...Prisoners were simply slaughtered.The feeling of madness is very evident in the song good on...Πολύ καλός Σάκης :)
ne..ne zamana dek sürer..duygular mı düşünceler mi duyular mı arzular mı..kim sonsuz bir ölüm ve cehennem içinde..ve bu ihtimalin herkese uğraması..ya da yakalaması..
Rotting Christ's music has breathed a new life into this prologue. William Blake, a mystic himself, would've been so happy to hear this song
Ive only found this band yesterday and i think its probably already found its way into my top 5 bands together with death, bathory, sabaton ans metallica
...the main influence of the creator of the band is BATHORY. Been listening to them 24 years, you have so much to discover from RC!
Sabaton are leftist cucks.
Holy shit! Goosebumps everywhere! Can't wait them to see live
+GreenoreDa Saw em in november. Sakis is pretty great live, cool dude too
I'm in live RC withdrawal. Amazing live show.
saw them last october they are amazing man
Amen!
Epic .. beyond words... Rotting Christ at their best
That scream. So desperate and straight from the fucking abyss. This song along with the album is the best metalalbum produced in years. Every single track gives goosebumps.
I love this band since I heard them from first time. I felt in love. I love their latest material especially. Much more articulate and complex stuff. Keep going
Back in 1972, I discovered the spiritual wisdom , dreams, and creative poems with his gorgeous illustrations. Now through Rotting Christ, I Now have very wickedly ace audio. ♤♤♤
🇬🇧¡G. Save the Queen!🇬🇧
Just Amazing 😍 Song I Must Reply
😎
This music is, simply the best !!!
Masterpiece!!!!
A song of epic proportions. Love it 👌
Superb!
This song gives me chills love it
Great song, best of the álbum!!!
Awesome!
The best "yeah" ever! (1:16-1:25)
Hell yeah 🤘
YEAH my friend!
Nice. One of my favorite non-Metal artists is Loreena McKennitt and this William Blake poem is in her song "Lullaby" from her CD, "Elemental".
Does anyone else continue the growl scream long after Sakis has stopped? With eyes squeezed shut, jaw unhinged, mouth agape, head knocking about, hair whipping, body writhing, chill bumps all over their skin, and both them horn hands launched high in the air? Fuck. Yes. This is empowerment. 🤘😈🤘
Esta canción es penetrante, una total obra de arte.
Some of their Finest Work Got chills the entire time
Masterpiece!
This is A Masterpiece!!!
From the Begin until the End.
