@@blackmetalerik962hi, what happened to Vortex? I kinda lost him after his Storm seeker project but somehow I'm nonetheless interested in his fate now.
Cannot resist the pleasure in this song. It feels like the metal ions in my blood conjugate in needles that want to come outside. And the lyrics... oh such a masterpiece! I head toward the stars.
Vortex with HellHammer is always unbelievable. The best of all anywhere! This is an everyday favorite of so many good Vortex bands and albums and songs.
actually in original album version it's not a guitar solo, it's singing of a guest musician (some girl with beautiful voice), Moren just transcribed it for guitar
One of their very best lives. Night and day between this Vortex and the one from recent years. Rest of the band impeccable as usual, true masters of their craft.
...Garm was in more than one album. Vortex didn't join the band until later but was still involved in the project because pretty much everyone in the BM scene know each other and or are friends. The band was formed by Knut. He writes pretty much all the music and so Arcturus COULD continue without any of the band members other than Knut if he really desired.
Fuck- i would have donated my god damn nuts to hear them live- seen this video approx. 100+ times, simply fantastic... the show... the dress up---the vortex singin-the hellhammer drummin .Noone is above this in my eyes!
does anyone cream their pants as much as i do between 3:09 - 5:15? this is so unique to me, and sounds absolutely AMAZING. i absolutely melt every time i hear this
Great song in their best (to my opinion) album. Vortex has one of the best -if not the best- voices in the metal world. And of course excellent performance from Hellhammer...
Hellhammer is damn fast, but also very technical...now, you don't see this "technicality" very much on most of his bands, but you do see it (or heart it whatever) on his band "Winds"...and Neil Peart is awesome...
He is. And it just ads credence that it shows that he is actually having troule in keeping the pitch and keeps covering his ear in order to not lose the tone and hear himself better.
Hellhammer and Vortex= perfect combination!!!
For music that's so keyboard-driven, It's a shame the camera doesn't focus on Sverd more often. He's really playing his heart out on this track.
camera dude has metal bias...?
They never show bassist either whos holding it down. Fucking guitar players lol
Yessss... I was thinking the exact same thing!
best vocalist of norway + best drummer = epicness
back when vortex could still sing live
@@blackmetalerik962hi, what happened to Vortex? I kinda lost him after his Storm seeker project but somehow I'm nonetheless interested in his fate now.
@@j7... he's in borknagar again as 1 of 3 vocalists
@@blackmetalerik962 but he can't sing live anymore? That's what had me worried.
heard this song 6 million times now- and i keep getting the chills each time. Wery few bands can do that to me for this long
Saw that comment 14 years ago and agreed with that. I hope you're still having the same chills now! What a great band!
This song is a total trip 🪐
👽
I absolutely love it 🤘
love how they made the female vocal part into a guitar solo!!!!
Yo I know I'm years late on this one but I'm happy to finally see someone else pointing that out. It was a nice touch for sure!!
Arcturus next 2020 as a headliner on Wacken Fest..
I grew up in the wrong fucking country. The northern Europeans are masters of metal.
I hear ya, buddy...I live in bible belt kentucky, I have NOBODY I can relate to musically. Kind of lonely, I must admit.
same
@@TeknoWarMachine I’m in rural Missouri. I feel ya!
Lol fr 😂

hellhammer blows my mind consistently. so does this entire album.... a masterpiece in every sense of the word.
4:13 Tore St. Moren's gift to the world.
Knut and Sverd are monsters on this track!
This sound is dope af just stumbled in this and been hooked 🎉2024 checking in.
I know that Dream Theater are masters of prog-metal, but theses guys for some reason just sound better.
It's like comparing apples to oranges. Both are good, depending on people.
Ya quiciera el vocalista de DT manejar un poco de la maestría de Vortex
DT have become dull and uninteresting. Arcturus never did.
thats not just progressive metal... got lots of influence for black metal..
It's better because I get to enjoy a riff that I like for more than 10 fucking seconds.
Hellhammer's drums...OMD!
I've been listening to it four days straight and I can't stop
Vortex with HellHammer is always unbelievable.
The best of all anywhere!
This is an everyday favorite of so many good Vortex bands and albums and songs.
Space Metal !!!
2:34 the double bass is insane.
It's crazy it sounds like programmed drums
@@toprak3479 He's using triggers.
@@merskur At those speeds triggers are necessary, especially in extreme music.
Damn keyboard right in the core of the soul
That is perfection. Amazing song played amazingly well.
Best performance! Legendary
oooh! what a beautiful guitar solo !!!!
the guitarists are awsome
Best drum sound i have ever heard in my entire life.. no shit.
Mindblowingly beautiful! Arcturus is like a drug....
this version is freaking EPIC
What an amazing voice range.!! 👏👏Hands down.!! greetings from chile👏👏🇨🇱🇨🇱!!
Been listening to this song for two weeks straight and I'll never get tired of it 🤘😈🤘
Woah. This music.... Is fucking amazing......
actually in original album version it's not a guitar solo, it's singing of a guest musician (some girl with beautiful voice), Moren just transcribed it for guitar
Hellhammer is a beast in this song!
4:15 💚
DAMN, HE JUST SINGS SO GOOD
One of their very best lives. Night and day between this Vortex and the one from recent years. Rest of the band impeccable as usual, true masters of their craft.
Awesome song from an awesome band.
This keyboard solo... Jesus

Vortex is a vocal GOD!!! Arcturus is great!!!

The Most Perfect Band Ever!!
Awesome Perfomance...
hail Arcturus!!
R.I.P.!!
One of the best song of the album.... but i will miss some song from aspera heims symphonia... like Fall of Man or Du Nordavind.
I love those chords starting from 3:09 Too bad he doesn´t play with Arcturus anymore. They were played with synth last time I saw them live.
A master piece!
I love the slow intermezzo, so pretty and dreamy.
If I am ever crashing down from space, I want this song playing at that moment.
5 stars, thank you for uploading.
I don't really think that it's physically possible to disagree that Vortex is awesome, dude
Brilliant song and performance!!!Vortex is god!!!
This is so perfect.. Great Live-band
That fill is one of my alltime favourites :D
awesome live!!!!!
@joela: They are called Borknagar :) And you guys in the US have NEVERMORE! (which is one of the most amazing abnds ever :))
Gotta give it to him though (Hellhammer that is) what he did in Shining just blew me away.
black metal jazz rules! ))
does anyone cream their pants as much as i do between 3:09 - 5:15? this is so unique to me, and sounds absolutely AMAZING. i absolutely melt every time i hear this
i just did right now
+Paul Jose
That part is one of the most sublime pieces of music I've ever heard. It's like a starlit nightsky put into sound. Just stunning.
+GeeKAdemics couldn't agree more. It's awesome. It's like David Bowie (RIP) + Heavy/black Metal. I
Love it.
sounds very 1970's Genesis to me, classic prog sound, I love that.
greatness!
they´re brilliant!
Arcturus has such complex instrumentals, i don't blame him of making some mistakes. They all have amazing technique.
i could hear that one over and over again!
maybe its not the word a true metalhead would use, but this song just wonderfull !! ;-)
this is what happened to me too and now this dvd is in my collection
Its awesome how their is a guitar solo that perfectly matches the female vocals on the album. I love this Band.
Spettacolo
Fantastiskkkk Arcturus!🖤
This has to me my favorite song of all times, I fucking love vortex!
truly awesome.
My favourite Arcturus song.
I wish Arcturus would come back...
earning money with music is no crime =)
and the space sequences... i´ve watched it so many times too...
Super vocal!
Sublime
Amazing!
Hah hah sick drumming by Hellhammer!
great song
this is so good ...
Great song in their best (to my opinion) album. Vortex has one of the best -if not the best- voices in the metal world. And of course excellent performance from Hellhammer...
Totally with you there, man.
Así es... una pieza maestra...
Excellent
Hellhammer is damn fast, but also very technical...now, you don't see this "technicality" very much on most of his bands, but you do see it (or heart it whatever) on his band "Winds"...and Neil Peart is awesome...
TRUE NORDS NEVER BACK DOWN!
Vortex kicks ass (all of them as a matter of fact)! I'm so glad ARCTURUS will be back in 2011! \m/
He is. And it just ads credence that it shows that he is actually having troule in keeping the pitch and keeps covering his ear in order to not lose the tone and hear himself better.
to each his/her own..
very good cd
excelente banda
Vortex is great!!!! amazing!!!!
Every member of Arcturus was a virtuoso at what they did. It's a damn shame they broke up.
Arcturus is a star.
So it's impossible the give the video 5 stars. XD
Vortex + Hellhammer = Awesome!! 2:29.. son of the..
Vortex is AWESOMEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hell yeah!
fucking great album great vocals...
I remember i first came to this band when i heard Simen was in it.
Then i heard Jan Axel was there drummer, then the floor became sticky ;)
Best drummer ever
Minha banda favorita
It's amazing ;)
Mange Takk, many thanks in Norwegian.
