Many nights I have wasted Watch the sun rise As my heart beats faster Gruesome world my eyes see Thoughts that race will never sleep Hate the light, lie in wait My curse is mine to create Sweat soaked skin, darkened hallways Stay inside, hide with my demons Dangerous game Can't get away Full of regret I am a slave Hate the light, lie in wait My curse is mine to create Will crushed by disease Losing sanity Feel I have no choice Following the voice Damage done Death roll Blood soaked Dead soul Sliced flesh Brains cut Arms twitch Eyes shut There is no hope
Although I enjoy the song, I agree. To see it's the album opener as well has me a bit concerned. It was the same feeling I got with Silence In The Snow by Trivium. I was okay with the song until I found out it was the album opener and it made me a bit...nervous. Needless to say my nervousness was correct and that album disappointed me tremendously. I hope Sorceress isn't the same. I enjoyed both Pale Communion and Heritage but Sorceress definitely is missing something.
Neonmirrorblack that's kind of what I mean by Rishloo. It's some of the wankier prog that Mastodon has done, fused with Tool. Although I think Anciients sounds way more wanky than Mastodon.
Dunno. I hear a whole lot of Leviathan and Crack the Skye (which was already Mastodon channeling Opeth) with growls that are *almost* as good as Akerfeldt in his prime. Plus the entire light/dark stylings that Opeth practically invented that many bands aped, but few did well. I only have the last two Rishloo albums, so maybe I don't have enough exposure to them or something, but I never really thought of them at all. The Tool influence is mostly the basslines in a few songs and some of the guitar riffs/distortion (especially Ibex Eye). Get this album if you don't have it yet. Easily one of the best of 2016.

Such an underrated band they really need more attention
Just to keep the comment section alive, I love the two albums this band, its a nice between other sounds I like
Is that the album I have been waiting from Opeth for the last 8 years?
More or less? But that being said Sorceress has the possibility of actually being good. Title track was a step in the right direction again at least.

don't see the comparison tbh. doesn't really sound like them at all, and with all do respect to this Canadian band, they're nowhere near as good
this band have a lot of influences by mastodon and opeth xd
So true! I hear it too.
Thank you for the music.
-ABBA
I'm late to the party but glad I found this band just now.
Release date October 14th...that means I'll be viewing this song here at least 75 more times. More likely quite more than that. Fuck yeah Anciients!
found this band by accidentally wearing their shirt. couldn't be more satisfied
Lol how does that happen?
He probably bought the shirt with the artwork from them or something , then someone told him thats and Anciient t-shirt
I've been waiting so long for this.
MY BODY IS READY
I have been awaiting this album for so long. The song crushes and all is right with the world as a result. Bring it on!
Love this song!
beyond excited for this one! tour and come to Philly, would ya?!
Bro, I saw them at TLA with Death a few years ago. Hope they come back soon. \m/
Definitely my most anticipated album ever
Absolutely love this! ❤️ Got both albums and being spreading the word for years in my little metal community. Hails from South Africa.🤘🤘
Awesome .......first time I hear of another South African that knows this band
@Conrad Barnard good on you mate for having good taste in music.👌
irish riffs.. I love them..
These guys never disappoint. So good
BRUTAL AF
WHEN THE FUCK DID THEY SIGN TO SEASON OF MIST?!?! This is just too good to be true.
Three years ago.
+François Marchand Awesome. I wasn't aware since I haven't seen them live since just after their first release.
I saw them opening for Scale the Summit a while back. Immediately went to the merch table and bought Heart of Oak. So stoked for this.
Right on. Prepare to get your minds blown.
This rocks hard.
Perfection.
FUCK YES!!
Holy shit this is super good. And they are from fucking Vancouver. I might have went to school with these dudes, haha. This is dope boys.
my conscience is mine to create.... It sounds so dark.. but appealing xD
Holly fuck, I can hear Solitude Aeturnus, Isole and Black Sabbath with some melodeath in between. Take my money, sir.
1:12...... nuf said.
You gotta see them live. Their musicianship is amazing to see in person. Tix are cheap too. Like $10!
Nice
definately a sound i want to demolish my kitchen to the next time i cook MASTODONBURGERS!!!!
Jasta sent me here after hearing this band on the podcast
will see them tomorrow night with Black Wizard
it's prety similar to their song "Giants"....well done anciients\m/
Holy shit dude
Top
Güzel...
New Mercyful Fate with death metal influences?
fucking......wow.....\m. >_< \m/
This Bit rate makes me sad.
But it sounds like the album won't :D
Very true :)
Dude it's fucking youtube how do you not go into it expecting absolute balls bit depth?
Sounds like Mastodon! Only in a positive way though!
Opeth meets Rishloo?
More like Opeth x Mastodon with an extremely small nod to Tool.
Neonmirrorblack that's kind of what I mean by Rishloo. It's some of the wankier prog that Mastodon has done, fused with Tool. Although I think Anciients sounds way more wanky than Mastodon.
