FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE "PENDULUM" LYRICS
Francesco: Himself
Veronica: Fate
I'll kill myself without realizing it
Nail after nail until the bitter end
Love for the unknown is what brought me up here
Where air is so thin that we can barely breathe
But better not look down
(Fate) - But this time you went too far -
Oh come on!
(Fate) - On the path of no return -
I can't believe it!
I'm falling down
Straight to f---g hell
I'm dying, help!
Nobody hears
"The dead" is the man who can not give up
Haunted by the fear of dishonour
Dreams made of lead fill my barrel
Waiting to be shot straight into my brain
My russian roulette
I'm falling down
Straight to f---g hell
I'm dying, help!
Nobody hears "the dead"
(Fate) - Like dead meat hanging by a thread -
But it's not my fault...
(Fate) - You get the end you deserve -
Sooner or later...
(Fate) - Lost soul! -
Swinging between life and death in a world upside down
(Fate) - Fool! Walking on the edge! -
And now I'm a god damned pendulum
(Fate) - Come up against this inglorious end -
Yes, a f---g pendulum!
I'm falling down
Straight to f---g hell
I'm dying, help!
The f---g pendulum!

Death… our inevitable ruin that calls for us sooner or later. Many who are fortunate enough to temporarily escape its fatal clutches experience life altering changes, finding renewed purpose, rejuvenated creative spirit and a reawakening of the soul. Such as the story goes for FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE frontman Francesco Paoli who in 2021 was involved in a tragic mountain climbing accident that left him clinging to life with years of recovery ahead, and ultimately inspiring the band’s first music in years.
Inspired by horrific event, the new single ‘Pendulum’ swings with intense ferocity and baroque classical movements, seething with anguished pain.
Commenting on the song, Francesco Paoli says:
“This is the first song we release since my ‘dance’ with death, back in August 2021. It's obvious that such a life changing event would have affected our music. It took a toll on me, physically and mentally, and sharing my experience is also part of my healing process. Pendulum is just the opening chapter of a bigger story, which is yet to be told…”
Mixed and mastered by Grammy-nominated producer Jacob Hansen (Volbeat, Epica, Arch Enemy), ‘Pendulum’ encapsulates all the core elements that FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE are known for: sheer violence, majestic orchestrations and soaring operatic melodies. The stunning artwork was created by Italian artist Ludovico Cioffi.
The new single is accompanied by a stunning music video directed by Martina L. McLean (GHOST, OCEANA).
Paoli adds about the video:
“The music video, realized by visionary Italian director Martina L. McLean, turned my unfortunate incident into a monumental visual experience, an awe inspiring blend of obscure symbolism, surreal architectures and nightmarish mythological creatures. It perfectly portraits the struggle and the desperation of that day, a day of defeat... but also the day of my rebirth.”

I used you guys in a paper as my primary example for how classical music is still progressing today 🤟
wow!
any chance you can share it? i'd love to read it
i want to read it
A very great example!
I'd also love to read it!!
Dual piano/guitar shred was insane
children of bodom vibes
Epic vocals: ✔
Blast beats: ✔
Shredding guitars: ✔
Shredding piano:
Shredding piano..?
Shredding piano: ✔
🙏🙏🙏
❤❤❤
There are no blast beats in this song, mate :)
@@TrueScaffold yes, just a little taste of that 0:45
The cinematography is also great!
When death metal gets slow, adding all these fucking symphonic elements, the result is fucking priceless 🥁🥁🔥🔥🎸🎸
💪
when death metal became CORE
I hope this means a new album is coming
They released "Sugar" in 2019.3.8, so it's highly likely that they will release a new album this year.
@@franklyspeaking1607 Right but Sugar is not an album. :p
@@s_t_s4846 Well Sugar was the lead single of Veleno, so I was assuming that Pendulum may be the lead single of a new album. :(
I am still waiting for Om to release a new album. I wouldn't be surprised if GTA 6 comes out before it.
Good news! The new album is titled "Opera", coming on August 23, 2024.
And that’s how I became a fleshgod apocalypse fan
Thanks!!!
If you haven't already, I recommend going back and listening to their 2016 album "King". Subjectivity being what it is, I'd still say it's one of the best symphonic metal albums ever released.
I know right?
@@kalamabrew5963 I'd say the same thing about the previous album, Agony (2011)
Same
When Paolo left, i was reluctant...my mistake. Veronica can easily carry the clean ones. Fucking powerful, great riffs and killer drums.
🙏🙏🙏
Much prefer it just personally i always prefer female cleans
@@FleshgodApocalypsethis is the best stuff you’ve done in ages . So precise
Would love to see her try those clean vocals for "In Aeternum!"
Veronica is a great addition to the band
The guitar solo into keyboard solo was immaculate
This absolutely crushes!!! I’m so glad FA got Eugene. He’s such a perfect fit for the band, and Veronica’s cleans are such a nice addition. Loving the mix on this too! This is why they’re still one of my favorite bands hands down!
💪
One of the greatest metal bands in existence.
❤
Veronica gives me goosebumps every time with her beautiful voice.. 🤯. Love you all FA 💪😎🇮🇹
Thank you!!!
I got a bit of a Project Hate vibe at one point 👍great addition
Eugene is the only other drummer who could fill Franchesco's drumming 🤘
true
I think it's funny that they had trouble finding a good enough drummer, so Francesco was like F it, I'll just become the best drummer in the world and do it myself.
no need else nothing to say more, this comment is right on the place!
Eugena the Machine. Is my favorite drummer in the world. He fits in 👌 for Francesco and FA... he is also a kind, respectful, humble man.
Yes!!! Agree his drumming is ultra sick. Perfect for the fleshgod Apocalypse.
Francesco that pulls off the scissors before the tendril breaks 💥 extremely powerful image 💥
Nerd.
You call him Nerd? 😄
He didn't even explain what we're seeing in the video are the Fates from greek/roman mythology. Three Women spinning the thread of life/fate. When a persons time has come, they cut that persons thread.
Usually it's more metaphorical 😅
I love that downtune at 0:38. I'm curious if they will do it live too
Yo that transition from guitar solo to piano was SICK! Love the new song! 🤘🤘
🙏
I have that part on repeat.
My jaw dropped at that part. So fuckin good
This track combine everything i love about you: Symphonic and overheavyness
So sick man.. Eugene is the fn man.. I love the creepiness to Veronica's clean voice tones.. and that lead and piano break, holy shit man.. such a brutal song.. 🤘😈🤘
The dual guitar + piano lead was awesome and unexpected!! Love it, and can’t wait for the new album
Fleshgod Apocalypse never disappoints!🔥
🙏
NEVER
It's amazing how everything Italians touch turns into a masterpiece!
New FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE song? The weekend is officially saved!
2024 is officially saved*
🎉
I've only been this excited for the new FA album 5 other times before!!!
❤
I look forward to seeing this live and headbanging like a madman during the chorus along with the hundreds of other people in the crowd
😎
Always beautiful to find
music to play at your local church .
Fleshgod are still making one step forward. Their videos are always a great kind of art. The song is also very good i'm excited for the new stuff coming
What a creative and extremely polished video! What a piece of work!
As for the track, heavy, mid-tempo, punishing! Perfect! Fleshgod's creativity makes it impossible to get bored!
Directly inspired by frontman Francesco Paoli’s tragic mountain climbing accent in August of 2021; Pendulum is Fleshgod Apocalypses first song release since the year in question.
Francesco had this to say about the track:
“This is the first song we release since my dance' with death, back in August 2021. It’s obvious that such a life changing event would have affected our music. It took a toll on me, physically and mentally, and sharing my experience is also part of my healing process. Pendulum is just the opening chapter of a bigger story, which is yet to be told..”
Okay, I've been a fan for a long time, but holy shit, you all did it. This is PEAK.
Whether they go fast or slow, Fleshgod Apocalypse fucking rips as always 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
🙏
Saw you guys twice at 70,000 tons this year and fell in love. My wife and I are enchanted by your sound and excited to hear more! If you ever want to tour in Minneapolis, you will have a standing invitation for a local guide and home cooked meals with us!
❤
That guitar solo / piano duet at the end was exceptional 🤘🏼
Im so excited
That collab with epica just boost my love for this genre
This song was so nice !!!
new fleshgod , you know what that means? new sick ass piano song
Зашёл на карточку музыканта, врубил aeternum, перезагрузил, застал синглач, лол
Буквально на глазах появилось то чего ждал так долго
Man I saw FA few years ago at dirty dogs in Austin TX and I got hella drunk and it took away from the experience tbh - I am now living in the Midwest. FA please come through soon - I fkn love y’all so much 🙏
Always a treat to hear Fleshgod Apocalypse dropping new music! My favorite band in the genre!
🙏🙏🙏
love the staccato riffing implemented, hope there be some more of that in the future , great song :)
The instrumentation, vocals..just everything is so lit!!! I really like this one!
🙏🏻
guys, this is awesome.
the best track FGA ever made, and video is even better than possible to imagine.
lyrics. damn, it's really deep.
great work, well done.
🎉
Klotho, Lachesis and Atropos! Such a great depiction of the three goddesses. =)
🎉
I hope for a repeat the success of a masterpiece album "King".
Damn this song is so addicting. Welcome back FA!
🙏thanks so much
I've watched this 10 times and still can't get enough of this song!! An epic masterpiece!
They were amazing live !
Fleshgod is back this is a banger for sure
So glad that Francesco is still in the land of the living! But also, music with the current lineup is killer! Hope to see them in the USA again when a new album comes around.🤘
This is by far the most solid Fleshgod I have ever heard
I understand the seriousness of the song, but I couldn't help but laugh when the guys headbutt/punched/kicked Paoli! Good shit as always though!
Francesco: Eugene, I need you on the drums so I can pick up the guitar 🧐but don't get excit...
Eugene: 😂😈🥁💣💥🥁🤯🔥🚒🤣
Francesco: Mamma mia 😫
🤣
This will clearly have a soothing, epic, intro song and I for one can't wait to hear it and show them both is succession to my non metalhead colleagues just to blast them away.
I really love when a song does sound like the title, I can't wait to blast that baby during my work commute.
One of the best songs you’ve ever put out. FA is aging like a fine Italian wine 🍷
Thanks!
Always a gem when Fleshgod drops a single. They better tour over here again. Covid screw me outta the Violin quintet show!!
Je viens de me prendre une claque dans les yeux et les oreilles...
Apocalypsed my ears and my eyes once again.
🎉
Dimmu Borgir meets Septic Flesh meets Therion meets Born Of Osiris.
Very amazing song, the breaks gives a fresh air for fleshgod. Hope the best for Paolo into his new life !
Thanks!
I got to do a meet and greet with Fleshgod Apocalypse in PDX in Feb 2023. Super cool people and incredible musicians. Love this track!
So this is how he feels about the rock climbing incident in 2021, what an interpretation of how it made him feel to fall, amazing song
im always apprehensive about bands i love making new music but GOD DAYUM this shit slaps!!!! absolutely amazing! this year has been a great year for new music!
🙏🙏🙏
😲 This was perfect, the heavy riffs, thumping drums throughout,and them vocals from both sides. The solo too 🤤.
I have watching this video for a couple of hours first time i found it amazing but now is an increíble story of resilience, i had the opportunity to see FA live 2017 and i hope i can see them with this song live ,if they come to latinoamerica i'll be there for sure. If not ill go to see them.
Wow, this is groovy! Very cool song and video
Thank you 🙏
F.A. shows again its longlasting durability performing at the top of their genre!
Was hoping for new sfuff from u guys, I'm happy it's finallly happening, I love u all !
Brothers and sisters, a broken blade can still be sharpened. If you say it's too broken, I always carry spares.
So goood. Makes me happy to see you still destroying. First time I ever heard you, you were opening for Wintersun in 2014, blew my mind.
The Moirai Clotho, Lachesis and Atropos. Nice analogy...
🤘
I love the more experimental path they are going with the new releases, a lot of great bnew ideas! I'm extremely hyped for whats to come in the future!!
Pretty well written song. The way they play with expectations and the combination of that guitar and piano solo was really cool!
🔥
That was a great tune got some Born of Osiris vibes in some parts of the song but still a strong song overall with the female vocals also.
THEY'RE BAAAAAAAACCKKK🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
This is awesome!! Really good work. And the solo is insane.
🙏
Omg, you guys killed it and with one man short 👏 I almost couldn't tell. Love that piano and guitar unison harmony, wow(with the bass drums 😎🤘)and eugene giving the death blow. Nice song.
🎉
guys, thats incredible! hope to see you again soon asap (maybe we will make a live music video together :D )
I really enjoyed this song and the beautiful art in the video. I cant wait to hear more from you guys! Much love!
🙏
I saw them play up close in a small venue, at a whitechapel headliner and man they were great!
pure genius music/video from start to end! bravo!
We need a new album now, VELENO is so great!
Veleno is perfection
@@marc_randrianarison I used to think that KING was perfect but when I come to listen to it again I find it a bit too wise and tame. Veleno is a bit less under control if you see what I mean. Talking about older albums my fave is AGONY.
Deathcore Fleshgod wasn't on my list of things I needed...
Til I got it!
Excited for the future. Also, how did I not discover this day of?
Italian symphonic death metal masters!🖤🤟
Horns high up once again for FA!! One more excellent ones....
it's a masterpiece
🤟
Aging like fine wine!
WOWOW
This is the most original song that FA have done. Still it has all the elements that make it recognazible to us. Top tier dudes
❤
Holy shit guys!
🤟
love the setting for the video, looks sick
🙏🙏🙏
I knew Paolo's departure wasn't going to be a problem. They already had a competent female vocalist right there waiting to do the cleans just in case. Lo and behold, she does an incredible job here.
STRAIGHT TO FUCKING HELL!!!
🤘🤘🤘
This may be the greatest piece of art you have created so far
Thanks so much
Felicidades amigos!!!! Una vez más tienen un éxito en sus manos ❤🎉
Amazing song🤘🏻 I was starting to worry new tunes were not coming for a while longer with the recent change.
that guitar solo slaps so fucking hard
In all honesty; Just like with the album Veleno (which was a turning point of a album for Fleshgod because of the more mainstream sound) it took me a second listening of this song before i heard Fleshgod in this song. But now that i hear "it"; I cant wait for the new album!
Wonder how long the singer had to hang upside down for the video? I would have popped a blood vessel.... Cool song!
It was rough
New Fleshgod music!!!! Must be my birthday!!!❤
If Fleshgod Apocalypse, made a Dark Souls game, and fuck yeah, I play it!
Amazing video, epic song! I hope there's a new album on the way
Excellent!
This is the best thing I never skipped
Great fucking Death Metal !!!
