"The Great Cold Distance" was a step beyond the metal stage. such a softness entwined with the aggressiveness of sadness is unbearable, yet comforting. Katatonia is a beautiful creation.
One of my favorite bands of all time . and I didn't find out about them till I was 55. have seen them live 3 times. awelcome awesome band. I get so sick and tired when I hear people my age age say there isn't any good music. love insomnium,opeth wolves at the door and a ton more .
@@aprild9577 same here, been into metal since I was 8 when cousin gave me all his records (yes, I said records) I am 53 now. Never stopped seeking new metal bands. YT helped tremendously with this. There's been great metal bands every year since I was 8 in 75. Too many too list
You come clean Waves collide now Defenseless numb arms And no voice of reason So how come you invited me too? You knew I wanted you You glide above So this night belongs to you I know this isn't through Are you dead to love? I see the bright lights It's the month of July It's violent here Why have you left me? If only you could stay And keep me in It's violent here Why did you run from me? So how come you invited me too?

it is a big mistake to compare this to their older work. this is the most progressive and most technical album of them.. and this song is one of album's best.. they keep changing their music as the albums pass but never lose their dark atmosphere. One of the most consistent and yet suprising groups ever.
I love the band and all the changes they have made from album to album. It keeps their music fresh. Their newest album that just came out is amazing. Even the acoustic albums are amazing.
This song perfectly captures the feeling of sleepless, sweltering, sweaty, heartache-ridden summer nights. Nights where you walk up the walls and stew in your own juices and your memories haunt you. Anger, regret, sadness. Manic depression. Timeless. The band's masterpiece. I'm already looking forward to next July, hahaha...
I bought this album when it came out in 2006. I was in high school. TH-cam was super new back then. It is one of the best metal albums ever, and katatonia's best. Every single song in this album is killer. Back then, I gave the album to my friends. They never stopped listening to them since. One of them still has it lying around after 16 years. I know people love the vocalist. But man .. the guitarist is PHENOMENAL. One of metal's best in my opinion. Also, the bass lines are monumental. They don't make music like this anymore.
The power and artistry of this band cannot be expressed, matched or compared. Every year I find more meaning and depth in Katatonia's music. It is quite incredible that such refined music is written and composed in our base epoch. Renkse and Nystrom are two poetic visionaries who gave us some of the most beautiful and sad songs ever written. A case in point: the paradoxical warmth of this chilling, heart-breaking master piece. "I see the bright lights, it's the month of July." Ohhhhh...
Right? The Great Cold Distance is their best album by far. I've lost a bit of interest in them since Night is the new Day, even tho they are still a great band.
You can't force these things sadly. It's about how they were feeling in that moment of time, that has to progress or stagnate and Katatonia have at least continued to not sell out and make great interesting albums.
Opeth and Katatonia have some similar sounds because Akerfeldt and Renkse have been best friends for many, many years. They have similar influences, and they have worked together on various projects. Instead of comparing the two, simply recognize them both as fantastic bands.

Just a friendly reminder that if you find yourself replaying this more then a few times in one sitting you probably should just buy it :)
A lil hurt just reminded me of this song after all these years passing me by without a single trace of mercy. I still enjoy it while all those great lyrics are bleeding through my veins tho I'm aware of the fact that it ain't summer in my soul anymore and every single beginning of fall makes me wanna fall 🖤🤘🏻
Haven't listened to Katatonia in a long time, and this was a nice piece to my morning :D I love the contrast between the bass/guitars and keys. Classic doom elements
I've seen Katatonia live in SLC and they were so amazing LIVE!! Jonas voice is both powerful and calming at the same time!! The Old Hearts Fail Tour was nothing short of CONCERT PERFECTION!!!
He conocido hace poco a Katatonia y me parecen espectaculares, la estructuración de sus temas, el desarrollo de éstos , la complejidad , sus paradas y sus colores , espectaculares.
2023, here. Personally, I'm not in love with this... but I feel like this is super underrated. I'm just now hearing this and I've loved bands in this realm for half my life. I'm sad I'm just now hearing, lmao. Doesn't matter. Good tunes, good vibes! Well written!

Opeth is Opeth, Katatonia is Katatonia. I love both bands.
so do I! love them so much!
Im Fromer Brasil and opeth and katatonia os my favorite bands
@Fabian Abiyoga Testament goes soft, still not bad
For me Katatonia > Opeth, but i love Mikael's work on Brave Murder Day
I was lucky to see them both when they toured the states. Katatonia stole the show,

Are you dead to love?
I see the bright lights
It's the month of July
It's violent here
Why have you left me?
If only you could stay
And keep me in
It's violent here
Why did you run from me?

Saw them in Atlanta in December of 2023. They played this.

One of the most emotional and qualified metal songs.

16 years comment WOW
@@Vardok7hehehehe yes.
Yes, but the Fall of Hearts is also f... complex. Although 16 years ago we only had TGCD, so I agree.
KATATONIA must be the most underrated band in musical history. And think of the competition.
I say it 20x a year
absolutely
was having the same thought while listening to this song
Underrated for sure, but definitely not THE most underrated... they're up there though.
OMG This song is so addictive
katatonia - follower as well :)
Especially while driving
@AsiNnoX Just got into them.
This song is PERFECT!
It's violent here, why have you left me? ❤️
Heh.. me ♥️

I remember the day I I downloaded july, I listened to it around 10 hours nonstop. Katatonia makes next level metal music

Same experience. The only other album I ever loved from the very first listen, start to finish with no exceptions, was Lateralus.
Still makes my soul shiver.....kings of sweden
Why am I just now hearing this song? It´s f*cking awesome!

listening to this in august because I didnt get the memo in time
Nice heritage pic
That breakdown is so mysterious, evil and sick and beautiful.
I wish they'd go back to the sound of this era.. :/

@@bolchert Agreed, this album then Viva are my faves.

It's one of these special songs which keep with you forever.
Indeed! 🙂
This song is an air-drummers dream. Love it.
Took me a while to correctly air drum the section at 2:12
in july 2020 this song still alive. Forever
This is art.

Such a brilliant band. Where have you been all these years? It's like a perfect middle ground between beauty and brutality.
They're definately hiding. A true gem
I believe this is the best album of their career, it's really great!!
Hey, come and listen again :)
I presume the same. Although I love the Night Is the New Day almost same
just remembered that it’s THE MONTH OF JULY🖤🤘🏼
Great Daylight Dies T-shirt !!!!
Every Katatonia fans should listen to Daylight Dies !!
And here we go again. This time of the year.

2019, still listening to this masterpiece.
The band of my life.
This album has extracted my tears for exactly 10 years now.
It's okay to cry with this celebration of music and Jonas Renkse's emotions. :'(
Thank you Jonas and Andrew. You're living legends with hard emotions!
You saved my life.
Katatonia is life.

Are you dead to love
I see the bright lights

It's violent here
Why have you left me
If only you could stay
And keep me in
It's violent here
Why did you run from me
Heat
Night devour me
