One thing that is often overlooked about Katatonia songs is the absolut stunning drumming! The drumfills in this track are so god damn hooking its awesome! I love this track so much.
@@marcp.1752 On the other hand you get a ton of variety with katatonia. They usually have 2-3 consecutive albums with the same style and then change it up, while keeping the awesome distinctive vocals. Makes everything fresh imo.
LYRICS: I thought things would take off But they cooled down Your voice on the phone I hear traffic behind Violent rain Outside looking out Looking up Fragments of sky Looking to leave Transmit and deceive Kill off the fortune tellers You say that woe is always on your mind You drag me back in for a breath of comfort No longer telling wrong from right The ghostlike horizon of your eye I hear things aren't well Since you sold me out I remember you clear Your rituals of doubt With city lights from 1988 Sprinkled like dust On your window pane You say that woe is always on your mind You drag me back in for a breath of comfort No longer telling wrong from right The ghostlike horizon of your eye Maelstrom I'm drifting away I'm staying under You fall back to aged ideals Controlled by thunder Ruled by dishonour Come feel I am not real Woe is always on your mind You drag me back in for a breath of comfort No longer telling wrong from right The ghostlike horizon of your eye
@MeliaCloud lol... right they haven't evolved their sound in forever. Not that I'm complaining, i love what they're putting out....but they aren't reinventing the wheel
Those images are as stunning as the song... and ALL the other tracks of Sky Void Of Stars. A new masterpiece. I'm so thrilled by your music guys *applause*
This whole album is such an epic journey. How do they keep doing it?! I wish I had some power to reach the band to express my deep gratitude and utter awe at this masterpiece
The mixing is definitely very interesting, made me wonder if the voice was Jonas' at all, but I loved it. The subtle complexity is very tasteful, the vocal melodies are catchy, the guitar solo is top-tier. Man. I love this band so much.
The production of this album reminds me Dead End Kings and The Fall of Hearts whereas City Burials kinda reminds me The Great Cold Distance, I love that they sound different each record, and this song is just flawless and the chorus is catchy as hell
@@golgotha85 I need to clarify my comment. Fall was better than Dead End Kings and City Burials. The Great Cold Distance is better than ALL! And my favourite band is Opeth so I love prog. Nothing is too progressive for me.
Dead End Kings is the only Katatonia album I dislike with only Lethean being the only song I listen to. Personally I love Night Is the New Day, with Great Cold Distance just inches behind. Fall of Hearts was too soft for me aswell.
This new album is so powerful and melancholic. "Austerity" is a very powerful intro and the more I listen to it, the more I like it. Yes, keep going this way Katatonia, this is the way. No longer telilng wrong from riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight
Katatonia frontman Jonas Renkse sums the feel of the track best this way; Energetic and dark, stern and disenchanted. Yes, that's exactly what emotions it will pull and the atmosphere it will convey as you listen. As for the meaning of the track, I believe it's about disillusionment that comes from being pulled so far away from one's expectations that nothing makes sense anymore. The world seems to have become almost fragmented - no telling who can be trusted, when it all reads as lies.
@@VulgrimOfficial Jonas Renske was fetaured as a vocalist on Silver Lakes album (among other great ones like Nordmann, Björn Strid, Tomi Joutsen, Anneke van Giersbergen, freeking Einar Solberg)
Kann kaum erwarten, dass das Album rauskommt. Dieser und die letzte Single sind die besten Songs seit Jahren. Freu mich mega auf das Konzert nächstes Jahr in München gemeinsam mit Solstafir 🤘❤
When - in a couple of years at most - stable diffusion reaches the level where we would have trouble distinguishing it from reality, those uncanny valley images of today will become a genre on its own, just like pixelart is.
Love Katatonia since 2008. Can't wait to listen to new album! Thak you for your music! Also let's say "Thank you" to the Midjourney for helping artists create such an amazing video artworks))
Some guy gave me a mix tape back in the mid 90s with the song Without God on it, this is way different, but I guess 30 years between songs makes a difference 😉 good stuff, I like this.
Też kiedyś kochałem ten band, może nawet był moim no. 1. Potem, po NITND zaczęli tak smędzić, mruczeć i "nijaczyć", że choć z obowiązku próbowałem, to zawsze odpadałem. Mimo wszystko trzymam za nich zawsze kciuki. Może jeszcze kiedyś znów ruszę swoją starą dupę na ich koncert...
Great song from the *phenomenal* album! Congratulations guys! I think it's the best metal album in recent years. I bought the CD and the music has been with me ever since 🙂

The birds are back! this video clip combines so much with the band style, I love it. I cant wait to listen the whole album and see them live in february
What genre though, they have been through so many it's hard to classify them right. I'm personally against genre classification anyways... So many artists fall under so many different genres it becomes kinda nonsensical to categorize them.
I just recently discovered Katatonia about a month ago and got them all on vinyl. I can't believe how diverse they are while keeping that Katatonia sound the whole way. Super underrated band.
F*ck me!!! Awesome Video to an already awesome song. I have the feeling they are getting better and better... every album paints its own pictures... and I cannot hail Anders guitarwork enough. Jonas is God here, he has the most beautiful male voice on this planet. I may sound like a fanboy and yes I Am... but this band deserves every fanboy possible on this planet... because what they do is touch my innermost core every time they release something. And indeed... only Katatonia is able to do this woth every new album, single or whatever... I have to face it... I am a slave to Katatonia nearly 20 years. Hail Katatonia... Just Hail them❤️❣️❤️❣️❤️🤘❤️
It's even more ironic if you read the lyrics: "I hear things aren't well / Since you sold me out" (artist pov), "Controlled by thunder / Ruled by dishonour" (employers? XD), and especially "Come feel / I am not real". I know it's over-interpretation here, but heck, hits hard. Also poor quality of AI images fits somehow desolate images lyrics describe (though still wouldn't advocate for such unethical, bad practice to visualise desolation).
The two released tracks make me VERY, VERY excited for the full album. I can't imagine hearing it in ATMOS. Going to be crazy. While I did enjoy City Burials, it started out as a Jonas solo album. So this, imo, has much more of that "Kataonia" feeling to it. I didn't care a whole lot for Dead End Kings either (I actually like City Burials a lot more) , but The Fall of Hearts was in-fucking-credible. I'm pretty certain this album will be killer.
Love that they've reclaimed the goth/doomy atmosphere absent from the last two albums. Nice mix of old and new here. I prefer Atrium at the moment but I'm sure this will be a grower. 🖤
@Ænigma Xeno Yeah many will prefer this, but I often listen to Tonight's Decision/Last Fair Deal and Atrium harks right back to that era. This is certainly heavier and more proggy, which will appeal to most fans I imagine.
@@StepSoftlyGhost ah yeah makes sense. I'm more into the heavier stuff. My favourite albums are the first two and Viva Emptiness, The Great Cold Distance and Night is the New Day. If I had to pick one, I'd probably go Great Cold. But all their albums are worthy of love!
Not hearing the Napalm logo explode REALLY threw me off lol I was suddenly like oh eff my headphones died! Lol
Yeah, I thought my speakers had finally kicked the bucket.
Me too!🤣
Lol 🤣🤣🤣
I thought my cellphone had died lol
Hahah, yes.
Me too just now
One thing that is often overlooked about Katatonia songs is the absolut stunning drumming! The drumfills in this track are so god damn hooking its awesome! I love this track so much.
Man... yes! Song started and i was like "what's the freaking tempo on this" lol
New-wave-jazzy-metal part 2:44 - 4:00 is beating everything I heard in 2022. Awsome!
In the nearly 20 years I’ve listened to Katatonia, they have never disappointed. Such an amazing and consistent band
right! I agree
Still good, yes. But i do really miss the Brave Murder Day & October Tide - Rain without End days...

@@42ZaphodB42 Yes, but i'd like to hear Jonas like onto Brave Murder Day...and he's younger than me.
LYRICS:
I thought things would take off
But they cooled down
Your voice on the phone
I hear traffic behind
Violent rain
Outside looking out
Looking up
Fragments of sky
Looking to leave
Transmit and deceive
Kill off the fortune tellers
You say that woe is always on your mind
You drag me back in for a breath of comfort
No longer telling wrong from right
The ghostlike horizon of your eye
I hear things aren't well
Since you sold me out
I remember you clear
Your rituals of doubt
With city lights from 1988
Sprinkled like dust
On your window pane
You say that woe is always on your mind
You drag me back in for a breath of comfort
No longer telling wrong from right
The ghostlike horizon of your eye
Maelstrom
I'm drifting away
I'm staying under
You fall back to aged ideals
Controlled by thunder
Ruled by dishonour
Come feel
I am not real
Woe is always on your mind
You drag me back in for a breath of comfort
No longer telling wrong from right
The ghostlike horizon of your eye
Where did u get the lyrics ❓😯
@@DDAngel1 Pretty easy to hear every word in this song
@@betornween no it's not pretty easy
This track blew my mind! The guitar solo is incredible and the video is from another planet!
It's sounds very Still Life era Opeth.
That’s exactly what I thought haha!
I came to the comments section for the same reason, very opethesque haha
I love Katatonia, all their albums are just perfect, My fav album is Discoureged Ones, Highly recommend! Cheers from Bolivia Southamerica
Katatonia re-invents their sound every album. Love it!
are you trolling ?
Agreed. They do evolve every album they do.
If you are interested in that sort of thing then check out Ulver's back catalogue.
@MeliaCloud lol... right they haven't evolved their sound in forever. Not that I'm complaining, i love what they're putting out....but they aren't reinventing the wheel
@@Soldier13Fox1 They have evolved their sound many times.
Napalm logo intro muted made me crank up the volume! SO WORTH IT IF YOU ASK ME! NEIGHBORHOOD SAID ITS LIT 🔥🔥🚒
Katatonia for me are one of the greatest rock bands in the entire universe. I just love them to bits. This new material is awesome!
Those images are as stunning as the song... and ALL the other tracks of Sky Void Of Stars. A new masterpiece. I'm so thrilled by your music guys *applause*
theyre midjourney v3
Que viva Katatonia carajo! Saludos desde Coimata, Bolivia!
Wow!! Hits so many Katatonia sweet spots! Love it, this is going to be a killer album!
It is.
Bought it and I don't regret it. Killer material.
This whole album is such an epic journey. How do they keep doing it?! I wish I had some power to reach the band to express my deep gratitude and utter awe at this masterpiece

Jacob Hansen mixed this, threw me off initially, but it's his signature style
The production of this album reminds me Dead End Kings and The Fall of Hearts whereas City Burials kinda reminds me The Great Cold Distance, I love that they sound different each record, and this song is just flawless and the chorus is catchy as hell
City Burials definitely didn't remind me of The Great Cold Distance. It reminded me of Dead End Kings. Hearts was better than both
@@Aenigmakil Blasphemy! The Great Cold Distance IS Katatonia! Fall of Hearts was too progressive/boring for me.
@@golgotha85 I need to clarify my comment. Fall was better than Dead End Kings and City Burials. The Great Cold Distance is better than ALL! And my favourite band is Opeth so I love prog. Nothing is too progressive for me.

An amazing song for an awesome videoclip...Katatonia never desappoints 🤘
Best band ever.
The great cold distance
Since I discovered Katatonia their lyrics have helped me try to understand what life is.
And once again our Katatonia release the single that is awesome...Can't wait for the album in January 🖤🖤🖤
Whenever a new Kataonia song comes out, it's always a good day! :)
I'm really liking this, kind of a prog rock Ghost but a little harder feeling, rock on
The singer sounds alot like ghost.
I get some Viva Emptiness vibes with this track, especially in the solo.
The first thing I'm looking forward to in January! Katatonia Rocks!! Love this Song!
First time Katatonia live for me. January in Cologne. I am so happy about it and cannot wait for it.❤️
Have fun, man. Just saw them again in November and I can assure a good time!
@@miseryeternal7979 thanks a lot. One of my favorite bands of all time.
Classic Katatonia sound......Jonas is as smooth as ever. Favorite band since the GCD!
I'm considering this a birthday gift to myself. Thank you for the new Katatonia. It's incredible as expected.
This new album is so powerful and melancholic.
"Austerity" is a very powerful intro and the more I listen to it, the more I like it.
Yes, keep going this way Katatonia, this is the way.
No longer telilng wrong from riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight
Wow!!! Thank you Katatonia for these beautiful moments you give us

I already bought it. Absolutely brilliant!
I highly recommend it!
Massive wall of sound. The masters of moody metal!
Fan from Day1, still loving everything from them. This is amazing as usual :)
IMHO, this video is the best graphic expression of what their music carries within.
Great song!!

Awesome song from an Amazing Band🔥👍👍🤘🤘
They killed this song live it was so amazing. Katatonia is the best!
Katatonia can do no wrong. 🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥
Best Katatonia song since The Fall Of Hearts. 🖤
This is a piece of art. Just marvelous🤩
I thought things would take off
But they cooled down
Your voice on the phone
I hear traffic behind
Violent rain
Outside looking out
Looking up
Fragments of sky
Looking to leave
Transmit and deceive
Kill off the fortune tellers
You say that woe is always on your mind
You drag me back in for a breath of comfort
No longer telling wrong from right
The ghost-like horizon of your eye
I hear things aren't well
Since you sold me out

You say that woe is always on your mind
You drag me back in for a breath of comfort
No longer telling wrong from right
The ghost-like horizon of your eye
Maelstrom
I'm drifting away
I'm staying under
You fall back to aged ideals
Controlled by thunder
Ruled by dishonor
Come feel
I am not real
Woe is always on your mind
You drag me back in for a breath of comfort
No longer telling wrong from right
The ghost-like horizon of your eye
Masterpiece!! Welcome back Katatonia!
I love this intro is so fucking powerful and unpredictable... this is PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My favourite band, simply...💜🤘
They never disappoint with the sound they are going for each album. I'm loving this one!
Круто! Katatonia в своём стиле. Зашибись. Жду альбом
This song is the first was I like since the end of old style. I like really two first albuns .
Wow Katatonia nie przestaje zaskakiwać muzyczną twórczością i wspaniałym wokalem !
Dla mnie najlepsze było i jest Dead End Kings. Pozdrawiam.
@Marvda widzę, że kolega sfrustrowany i niezadowolony z życia. Pozdrawiam.

Предыдущий понравился больше, но и в этом что-то есть)Очень жду альбом.
Ничего себе. Мощно. Эти 7/8 не дают разуму расслабиться.
They remind me of Opeth more and more with every album. Which can't be a bad thing.
Wicked Opeth vibes
Deep and magical stuff from the boyz of the neighbor🍾🏆🇫🇮
Katatonia always hits it out of the park.
I can't wait for a US tour. Love the new album
This is the second song I'm hearing from Katatonia, after I have heard "Birds", and I must say that I like what I hear!
