Founded in 1994 in the Swedish Säffle, Draconian gradually refined their sound of melodic Death Metal with elements of Black Metal, becoming more ponderous and doomy over time. Their style-defining 2003 debut LP 'Where Lovers Mourn' served a welcome alternative for fans of such classic doom artists like My Dying Bride and Paradise Lost. Contrary to many of their peers however, Draconian's sound has remained steadfast to its origins, in particular, the powerful vocal growls of Anders Jakobsson, one of the band's defining and most unique features, along with newcomer female vocalist Heike Langhans sensitively interwoven melodies. Draconian's sixth studio album Sovran is no exception to this formula, and immediately convinces the listener with Beauty and the Beast-esque vocal contrasts, striking accents, and threatening moods. Sovran also features a guest appearance from Daniel Änghede (Crippled Black Phoenix) on the haunting track “Rivers Between Us”.
Earlier this year my husband relapsed on meth. It damn near broke us. One day while he was off messing up, I was home, sad and alone, and this song came on. First time ever hearing Draconian. A couple days later when my husband sobered up, I asked him to listen to this song. It literally saved our marriage and changed our lives. From that day, he started learning to growl while I sing opera, and writing music! You guys... I can't thank y'all enough for your powerful music! And giving us a reason to live again...!
Such a powerful story, thank you! And yes, Draconian shifts you with their music.
F.ck.ng Amazing..........The Power of Great Music
I hope always live happy and together with your husband
Another song that can be life changing is Necralogue by Solstafir. I listen to it often...
Oh dear, I'm with you, and I do plainly understand you...
Draconian is one of those rare bands who can bring a smile on your face and tears in your eyes, and it warms you inside and it also makes your body cold as if you were laying in the snow without clothes on. It’s magical feeling, it’s the combination of Draconian’s phenomenal way to combine slow, fast and sad rhythms into one song. It’s not easy task to face but somehow Draconian manage to perform it flawlessly in every single song.
Agreed. My Dying Bride comes to mind as well
A beautiful comment. So true and thank you.
damn right
what a poetic description. WOW!👍👌😍
i agree, thats how id describe this band as well. shymalognhar - emergence
Draconian is totally one of the best gothic/doom metal bands out there.
+RedgraveGilver so true, dark greetings \m/
+RedgraveGilver
Yes)) My favorite gothic band
aje, okay with English Lyrics is Draconian my Fav but with German Lyrics is it "Mantus"
+RedgraveGilver I can see your point but i think Saturnus share a place in the top with Draconian.
+RedgraveGilver the greatest man, the greatest
what a fantasy, what a melody, what a poetry, what a melancholy
The moment Heike sings "From this flesh my spirit longs to break away
, Did you ever feel this cosmic circumstance was never enough?"... Really transports you to another world, another time, to another place! Her voice is so beautiful and she manages to convey so much emotion and feelings through her voice!
Same for me
Seriously, This song is a Masterpiece
no it isnt
@@manjorn589 Is so!

Man, this is a whole new level of depression!
It hurts so good, though.

When time to time I come back to Draconian it feels like I visit my old friend, who is still there to comfort you.

@Zayne simard moore I agreed with ya on the Turning Seasons Within. Best album so far
Swallow the sun brother!
That guitar harmony at 2:08 rips my heart out in all the best ways. Well done!
3:10 - I am with them.
Where is the world I saw in your eyes?
It lived through the night, then whispered goodbye.
The cuts in your skin and the red in my eyes.
This winter inside is crushing me now.
"I am alone, I am scorn, I can't remember to forget you,
I just weather the storm".
The love that I had, it drowned with the tide,
stirring the waters where heartslay bare.
The cuts in your skin and the red in your eyes.
Enfolding this shame into despair.
Let me take the noose from our necks and carry us home.
Still so alive, even after you die, transcending with time.
We're just two cripples who fail to belong.
Yes, we are two cripples, but we need to hold on.
From this flesh my spirit longs to break away.
Did you ever feel this cosmic circumstance was never enough?
Wake me slowly if ever at all.
Wake me slowly or watch me fall.
The life that I had is gone with the tide (Watch me fall)
Another deception, I whisper goodbye.
The cuts in my flesh, the red in your eyes (Watch me fall).
These demons inside, they die with me now.
Thank you.
are you trying to be funny?
@@manjorn589 are you ?
@@mohamedbenabdallah4985 no he isn't. It's a bloody lyric video.
How can someone dislike this band? Another great work from Draconian!

4 years later and it still tears my heart apart. Just a masterpiece of emotion
Everytime I listen to Draconian, I feel compelled to play guitar again. What an amazing guitar job!
4:16 gets me every time..... MASTERPIECE!
same..
3:10 - I am with them.
Sometimes you love someone so much you can't let him go even if you don't matter to him anymore. All these memories of how you used to be special with him, are holding you back...
This song is so beautiful; Heike & Daniel's voices are so sweet and sounds awesome together, 15 days to this new masterpiece
Aramızdaki Nehirler
Nerede gözlerinde gördüğüm o dünya?
Yaşadı gece boyunca, ardından fısıldadı: hoşçakal
Derindeki kesikler, gözlerimdeki kızarıklık
Kahrediyor şimdi beni içimdeki kış
"Ben yalnızım, ben hor görüldüm.
Seni unutmayı düşünemiyorum.
Zorluklara göğüs geriyorum sadece."
Sahip olduğum aşk, boğuldu akıntıda
Kalplerin çıplak kaldığı suları karıştırarak
Derindeki kesikler, gözlerindeki kızarıklık
Bu utancı umutsuzluğa sararak
"Bir bulut gibi sürüklen ve bir su gibi ak. Tüm hayatın muhteşem bir ilizyon, bir enerji oyunu olduğunu ve esas olarak korkacak bir şeyin olmadığını gör. Esas olarak. Suyun yüzünden korkacaksın. Elini ateşe koymaktan korkacaksın. Hastalanmaktan korkacaksın. Ama kaygıdan korkmayacaksın. Bir bulutun aynaya yansıması gibi kaygı zihnimizden geçecek."
Çıkar boyunlarımızdan bu ilmeği ve götür bizi eve
Zamanla aşarak hala çok diri sen öldükten sonra bile
Sadece iki sakatız, ait olamayan hiçbir şeye
Evet biz sadece iki sakatız fakat dayanmamız gerek
Can atıyor ruhum bu bedenden çıkmak için
Hiç bu harika durumun asla yeterli olmadığını hissettin mi?
Hiç değilse beni yavaşça uyandır
Beni yavaşça uyandır
Ya da düşüşümü izle
İzle çöküşümü
Sahip olduğum hayat, gitti akıntıyla
Hoşçakal diye fısıldadığım başka bir aldanma
Bedenimdeki kesikler, gözlerindeki kızarıklık
İçimdeki bu şeytanlar, şimdi ölüyorlar benimle.

fuvk turkey
I had no idea that depressive / melodic doom metal was so goddamn popular in Turkey. Real talk seems like every band with this sound has at least a few (more often a shit ton) comments in Turkish.
Muazzam bir müzik.
You know you've just listened to the best song in your whole damn life when you can quote every single word of its lyrics!
Draconian is one of the best bands in gothic & melodic doom metal in the world.... loves from libya
From Egypt
Shukran ! Hail from Sweden!
This song just melts into your ears and makes your body melt along with it. Such a good flow.
drift like a cloud and flow like water, seeing that all life is a magnificent illusion, a playing of energy, and that there is absolutely nothing, fundamentally, to be afraid of.
Fundamentally, you will be afraid on the surface. You will be afraid of putting your hand in the fire. You will be afraid of getting sick, etc. But you will not be afraid of fear. Fear will pass over your mind like a black cloud will be reflected in the mirror.
Alan Watts.
dordoriani thanks i been looking for all over the place to find out what he says I couldn’t understand what was said I. That portion of the song
@@nadaqueimporta1446 he's saying to stop being identical to the emotion of fear and realize that you're the one who is recognizing the fear. Then the fear will pass right over you like a black cloud passes in the open sky of awareness.
thank you dear , i've always wanted to check that part of the song
i love this part every time i listen to it i find myself in tears
Drift like a cloud and flow like water, seeing that all life is a magnificent illusion, a playing of energy and that there’s absolutely nothing fundamentally to be afraid of, fundamentally, you will be afraid on the service, you be afraid of putting your hand in the fire, you will be afraid of getting sick. But you will not be afraid of fear. Fear will pass over your mind like a black cloud will be reflected in the mirror 🪞
Her sabah yeniden başlayan hayata her gece tekrar tekrar son vermek için uğruyorum buraya...
Anders and Heike simply make magic together.
I just can't stop listening to this song. So full of emotions and awakened memories ...
:( same
"Wake me slowly ... or watch me fall"
+Julia Motta First I heard it as, Or watch me thaw. :p
+paecmaker it sounds Nice too hahaha
Yeah, perhaps XD.
But I couldn't really understand what they actually meant, "fall" does suit the song a bit better. :p
youre gorgeous omg.
aint we a little too old for 'Sleeping Beauty'?
This band is just like a therapy for many illnesses and depressions we suffer from. They are my top band since a long time ago, each day without them is empty and fucked up.
Have you ever shed a tear of how majestical something is?...
I recently discovered Draconian's music an I am absolutely in love with this band!
hey Ilana...kende deze band ook niet...ondertussen ook helemaal weg van hun muziek...
4:37 tam burada gözlerine bakıyorum, aşk dolu bakışlarının zaten üzerimde olduğunu farkediyorum. Beni izliyorsun, bakmaya kıyamadan ama bakmadan da duramadan...
Absolutely adore this song, melts my heart. It's a metalhead's lullaby
it's so melancholic
thay is why s so beautiful
@@thisisasra7677 I never said it was bad
Bu parçaya sarılıp uyuyorum. Kalemimi tadıyorum.
Sahipsizdir derler, güneş doğsun diye dipsiz kuyusuna dalan her yıldız için.
Ölümlüler diyarından çıkagelen ışıksız bir ay.
Kızıla dönmüş her ağaç için bir kelime daha yazsınlar defterlerine.
Bu unutulmuşluk bitirir sabahı getirenleri.
Bilmezler.
Bilmeyecekler.
Karanlığın gece olduğunu sanmakla yetinsinler.
Yaprakların kanına bir iğne daha batıranların dizeleri solmuş.
Bu unutulmuşluk bitirir sabahı getirenleri.
Anlamazlar.
Anlamayacaklar.
Anlamasınlar.

What a poem. No more words to say.
I had never heard this band and I really enjoyed it. It will definitely be added to my playlist.
Descobri essa banda há poucos meses, por indicação, e estou completamente apaixonada pelas músicas! Pqp! Não tem um dia que eu não escute Draconian 👏🏼👏🏼
Wow que foda!!!! Welcome to the club!
Tão bom ver que tem Brs que curtem Draconian! Ah, e te indico a ouvir a banda do Johan Ericsson(integrante do Draconian) que também é de Doom Metal. Espero que goste!
Seldom duets brought shivers down my spine...not like this. Breathtaking and as a fan of both Draconian and Crippled black phoenix I am simply amazed to witness this collaboration.
These lyrics...these vocals...Such an amazing band. I wish I had listened more Draconian with Daniel Anghede! Doom metal as its finest.
2.55 - 3.32 gives me the most powerful chills/eargasm, it totally revives my drive. Absolutely brilliant piece of music. Outstanding instrumentals and haunting vocal coverage.
OH MY GOD WHAT AN AMAZING SONG
The lyrical content of this band is so deep, if you are in the know. Its impact is doubly powerful because of this. Its so moving as to remind a dead heart to just...beat.
Ugh. They sound so good together. I hope Daniel is on more than one track, because this is divine.
Artık bu şarkılar benimle bir aile gibi oldular. Hiçbirinden kopamıyorum, kopmakta istemem.
I am listening to this incredibly beautiful song, while I am getting ready to say goodbye to my best friend Ellie, the dearest person in my life, and leave Iran. Maybe if we lived in a good country, we wouldn't have to say goodbye. I hope God will do something so that we can meet each other in the future. Please pray for us. I love this song and I love all of you who are listening to this music With love from Iran. January 2025 ❤
good luck man , i wish you the best🙏
@KavehNemati-3D 🌷🌷🌷🌷
Draconian never disappoints, this is why I like them so much. There isn't a lot of bands that do what Draconian is doing a good time. Dark lyrics, melodic songs. This is what we can call doom metal. They can play the same thing forever and ever and we'll never get tired of it. With Heike on the vocals now, they can further improve. Here's the proof.
i'm listening over and over again this song.
i can't stop!
For anyone wondering this is the sample.
“Drift like a cloud and flow like water, seeing that all life is a magnificent illusion, a plane of energy, and that there is absolutely nothing fundamentally to be afraid of. Fundamentally. You will be afraid on the surface. You will be afraid of putting your hand in the fire. You will be afraid of getting sick, etc. But you will not be afraid of fear. Fear will pass over your mind like a black cloud will be reflected in the mirror.”
Thank you so much ! :)
Where it is from? Who said it?
@@PakistaniMetalhead you're it by Alan Watts
@@ramaalhussami3070 thanks a lot. I don't think I was familiar with Alan Watts' work. Will have a look.
@@PakistaniMetalhead this part in this song was taken from "You're it" already can be found full on TH-cam..
He is a life changer literally.
Good luck :)
I just love the Alan Watts insert
i thought I was alone 😉
A beautiful surprise indeed. :D
i'm zooming through youtube, looking for that specific lecture, got any leads? :3
th-cam.com/video/fcPWU59Luoc/w-d-xo.html&t=252
Funny i thought it was Michio Kaku
Nothing could be changed to make this song better. Just the way its put together is absolutely amazing with the transitions. I can actually say that it's in my top 3 of all times and not sure of the other 2 lol. So maybe that makes it #1. Why do I gravitate to sad, painful music. I guess that just says something about me. I do love it
The man talking about fear is Alan Watts. Draconian introduced me to him and he changed my life post mortem. Thank you Draconian!!
Damn, your lyrics always melts my soul...15 days ♥
Amazing Masterpiece I didn't know!! 👏👏👏👏 Her sweet voice remind me of Sharon Den Adel
Can't describe the beauty of this song in some words. Simply said it's outstanding.
idk how this song left my favorite songs aside to become my favorite... at the same time having a deep love/hate for how I met her... people who are close and who form a bond and agree on very good musical tastes is the most noble thing that can be achieved today... someday i will feel it directly... "did you ever feel this cosmic circumstance"..
I don’t even listen to this type of music but this song is just awesome like WOW
im in LOVE!!!
+Thalamea7 Count me in! haha
ISRAELLL
I think im in love with you lol
@@fatihsaltik5023wft?????
Wooooah! This keeps me back in the age of high school, when I start to listen at metal... Good days
First time hearing from this band. Stunning melody!!!
Much love from iran
words can't explain how much i love this song 🖤
I was trying to find info on the Draconians and ended up here.
I’m happy that I did 💜💜

I just found this band tonight. I thought i was the only one who noticed the Alan Watts speech in the song.
@@seanmcduffie8755 yeah mate, they are my favorite band since 2014 , i just love this part of Alan Watts especially :)
I'm so glad these guys are still around playing the same good music after so many years.
Ah benim draconiam bu kadar huzunlu bu kadar derin olma.seni her dinledigimde kendimi ve hayati sorgulattiriyorsun ,yapma etme kendinide bizide bitiriceksin
Each winter i come back to this 🖤 .. it's been years now ..love the album so much
Beautiful song.
The female voice reminds me a lot of Sharon den Adel's!!
+Arya Isara And i thought i was alone lol
Ya
+Arya Isara Identical. That what was came to mind at first. I had to double look it wasn't her. Either way, beautiful vocals.
exactly
+Arya Isara Heike Langhans
Stirring the waters where hearts lay bare......all i remember alll....a beautifull song again....Thanks Draconian..Heike with her dark lovely sound.
My facebook account was full with advertisement of this album. Glad I could finally check one of the songs. Sounds good.
Heike is sounding really great in this one it has her signature soothing gothic tone in her lower register but her higher register has this beautiful ethereal sound to it
this song makes me feel like i'm in another world...
This sound sticks to the mind and makes every hair on the body shiver
I was dying to listen the new material with Heike! Perfect match
Heike and the guitar lines are the best thing about this band!
Ecstatic, emotional, atmospheric song!!! In my opinion stands out compared to other songs!!!
one of the best songs of all time
Oct 31st: Getting my copy of Sovran in the mail AND going to Worcester for Grave Digger and Blind Guardian.
Nov 1st: Watching horror movies and listening to Sovran once my ears stop ringing.
It's gonna be a fun weekend.
Que melancolia meu deus...que lindo.

That's Alan Watts, no?
@@aznkriss133 ya it is.
This song really explores dissociation, and it's really hard to find music that goes over such an emotion.
Thank you for this amazing song, it helps me cope.
Excelente disco. Aguardamos Draconian um dia no Brasil.
Um dia......
Aguardando....
Words can’t describe the feelings that this band invokes
those guitars remind me so much of Swallow the sun... damn
+Ligeia Noire Swallow The Sun guitars remind me of Draconian* there, fixed :D
David Matos
ah ah ok
+Ligeia Noire yeah thank you... it reminded me too of a band but i was stuck on my mind.. thank you!!
+Ligeia Noire Wine From Tears... ♥
+David Matos swallow the sun has their own type riffs and music style, gloom and despair in variance albums. nothing sounds like SWALLOW THE SUN.
This new Draconian track sounds like Wine from Tears, this new Draconian's track doesn't sounds as the old work.
There is heart and soul in Heikes voice. It is real and makes the songs she sings touch the deepest parts of you. It pulls you in and you can feel in your bones every word, every note.
Strong lyrics...heart touching song
im sure ill never hear ,see or write a sentence that would be more than enough to be written on my grave to sum up my whole life like this one
"these demons inside they die with me now "
Sadly! I feel you brother :(
Draconian, 10 numara doom metal. Tüm albümleri çokçok iyidir.
ümit bostancı hacı bu draconian reptil mi?
The fact that they put Alan Watts voice explaining the futility of life on the background makes me love much more this band
My favorite Band Ever.....
Favori doom grubumdan yine taş gibi bir parça. Yıllardır dinliyorum bu grubu, iyi ki de keşfetmişim Draconian'ı. Draconian dinlemekten bıkılmaz be.
This is the best music I've listened recently.
Perdónenme, Draconian. Hace muchos años no los escuchaba y no les prestaba la atención que se merecían, pero ahora cada vez más los escucho y cada vez más me cautivan con su sonido.
Espero vengan pronto a Bogotá, Colombia! 👊🏼😻
my new favorite song... thank you Draconian.
There is so much beauty in this music.
Masterpiece, from 4:15 i just couldnt breathe...
It's over a decade and they are still making progress. Look what those once great 'Triple Ts' have become and you will know how difficult and admirable to achieve that.
Beni neredeyse bir ruhum olduğuna inandıracak kadar karışıyor hislerime
Sounds better with every listen. Really need to check out more of this band.
I love it! ❤️
For me is one of the best albums in this year, congratulations
Man I'm in love with this... I just can't stop pressing replay... Absolute masterpiece!!!
Who is here from 2024
