Therion was THE band for me for years...the old albums were great, the new ones too. In 2003 I worked in the Swiss mountains over the winter and listened to Therion every evening...! When you are as close to nature as you are in the mountains in winter, you feel the energy and power of Therion.
Therion is ridiculously amazing. They're daring with music, they take chances. They took the symphonic metal route long before the combination was as settled and praised as it's today, and they're still taking chances even now. Great band, great professionals, and great music.
My favorite band of all time. Theli, Sirius B, and Live Gothic are the best music humans have produced :)
the best line-up was with Niemans on guitar & bass, Leven on vocals, and Petter Karlson on drums
I agree...I can't get the same taste in recent albums.I have no hope of the new album (leviathan) to be released. ahh Christofer ahh....
@@muratatasoy3504 He really needs Petter and Kristian back. Those guys WERE Gothic Kabbalah which was their greatest achievement and an overall brilliant album that no other "similar" band has been able to come close to.
@@melgibsonfan9082 I perfectly remember how many people were wining, complaining and throwing shit on Gothic Kabbalah when it was released. Same was with Sitra Ahra. Lol, they did not know what will be further. But it is the whole history of Therion. Constant changing members, sound and style, losing old fans, getting new maybe
I would trade Leven for Anders Engberg, this was perhaps the best vocalist the band has ever had.
I saw them live with this line-up. They were fire!
I always wonder how people can compare Therion with Nightwish and Epica or such others..these are just some bands with female vocalists .. Therion is its own thing, it's a concept born from the mind of a shy eclectic. A universe where occultism and esotericism ,religion and mythology ,theosophy and philosophy from Europe to India are melted. Thanks for all these years of impressive work mr Johnsson
❤
Wow❤
I still prefer Epica lol but I'm 100% agree with you. Therion universe and fathers of symphonic metal ❤
Comparing those bands comes probably form the fact they represent the same genre - symphonic metal. And you are not giving those bands justice saying those are just bands with female vocals - both Nightwish and Epica rely on symphonical instruments much more than Therion. Therion excells in opera vocals and occasional symphonic or ethnic instruments, but the main load is still with guitars and drums. What is special about Therion is their albums are much darker, slower, and filled with authentic mysticism, while Epica or Nightwish are much closer to some fantasy genres, associated mainly with power metal dynamics, like Rhapsody.
Still, despite of being kings of "lets repeat that motive 4 times", Therion remains one of my fav symphonic-matal bands, along with Haggard (which I also strongly recommend!)
Cheers! :)
Therion is so much more than just some band, or even just a musical act. It is a door of perception to the esoteric, or rather the key to the door that exists within our minds. How could one listen to something like Ginnungagap and not FEEL the creation of a new world?
you CAN'T make a Therion collection that i won't like, simply because I *love* ALL their songs!!!
I've seen them live 4 times (first one was "Theli" and i was *blown away* ), I even have their logo tattooed on my arm!!
*BEST* band in the world!!! \m/
Thanx for the 🧡
Cheers from Greece brother!
La mejor banda de todos los tiempos, tuve la oportunidad de verlos tocar en vivo en el año 2004, han transcurrido 20 años y sigo amando a esta banda
Igual, por allá en Bogotá en el 2003 o 4, casi me desmayo por falta de aire al estar ahí adelante...
Valio jodidamente la pena..
It's nice to know that someone else out there loves Therion like I do. I live in Canada, which is starved, as is the U.S. for music that comes from a place of true passion and emotion. I had to travel to Amsterdam for a Therion concert to meet another Therion fan.
I only discovered their music a few years ago, with "Secret of the Runes", and I was immediately hooked. I've never been so moved by music in my entire life, and the day that Mr. Johnsson hangs up his guns will be a sad one indeed.
I'm also a Canadian metalhead and I have loved Therion since their death metal days. The first album I heard from them was Symphony Masses: Ho Drakon Ho Megas. It was so different from all the other death metal and when they did Lepaca Kliffoth, it was even more unique so I became a lifelong fan. Cheers from Victoria!
I'm also a big Therion fan, and I've been to 3 concerts. Funny thing is, they've all been it a tiny God-forsaken city in the middle of nowhere north of Mexico. Either they like Chihuahua, or Chihuahua likes them a lot! So, next time, you don't need to travel that far; come to Chihuahua and I'll buy the sotol :D. Forget about tequila, this is the real thing!
Therion are awesome. I remember the first song I heard by them was "The Beauty in Black" way back in the 90s (when I was a teenager) playing on the radio. I was already deep into metal (still I am) and I was fascinated by the opera/metal mix, but I didn't know what band it was, not even the name of the song (not a lot of internet back then) till a friend lent "Deggial" and "Leppaca Kliffoth" to me. I was blown away not only by the music but also because of how different the two records were. Then I grabbed hold of "Theli" and "Secrets of the Runes", which I liked even more and are still my favorite records by them to this day, though I love "Vovin", "Lemuria" and "Sirius B" as well.
Therion; My number one.
INSTANT LIKE ! YOU ARE A REAL FAN OF FANTASTIC MUSIC . . . ! ! !
Greets from good old Germany . . . and to all the THERION - Fans all over the world !
For me, Theli is the best album from the 90"s
The best Band in this form ever!
Whenever I listen to them I swear it sends me to another dimension. I love listening to this video because of the black screen. It puts me to sleep and the ones with the album covers are too bright.
Therion and Nightwish are the 2 greatest musical acts ever.
And Cristopher and Tuomes, the 2 greatest musicians ever!
@@ion.robu.999 man
Tuomes is great
but he is a pop or more
Chris is a genius trapped in metal and rock and opera and whatever comes
... no if you not include Epica [imho] ...
Therion is really one of the best of the best. I learned to play guitar from their records. And i still remember a few from DEGGIAL. Just listening, enjoying and playing. Many thanks to this band! I learned a lot without live teachers!
beatiful and power. they ' re the perfection make to music. leyends of the occultism and maggic
Great selection , congratulations i Miss siren of the Woods and via nocturna!!!
Clavicula nox... almost a percfect song.... i could say perfect too
I know right?
@@sandravovin What version??? from Crowning Of Atlantis or Vovin???
@@johanndysen4924 Yes.
@@mariusgrosio4372 yes, indeed :)
@@johanndysen4924 Vovin version for sure
Tengo dos años q comencé a escuchar a therion y estoy maravillada por ser una banda de alta calidad, trayectoria musical muy completa sus años la respaldan por siempre..... cada detalle musical y vocal en una armonía perfecta que se complementan.
I'm exploring the whole symphonic metal genre while in isolation due to COVED-19. From Nightwish to Epica and now this! Great music to keep me sane in these less than sane times!
old nightwish was savage new is alright old epica was alright the new stuff since 2008 is fking sick and therion has always been good
dont forget rhapsody dragonforce and anything with tobias samet demons and wizards as well just too many good stuff out there
Try Kamelot from the US. They are brilliant. If you really want to go down a rabbit hole try Ayreon from Holland, totally awesome.
@@jamestulk5111 lmao ayreon is something completely different its baffling ive heard all their stuff and its more storytelling than anything
Abraxas, Sirene of the woods, Voyage of Gurdjief, Son of the Sun, Son of the staves of time ...and more... and more :-)
Seven secrets of the sphinx and Summernight City nominated for the next compilation
snowy shaw was most important piece for therion for example ''sithra ahra'' album was one of best album in their career also , it had combined with symphony and lots of theaterical acts together I miss snowy shaw and ex members indeed
Thanks for uploading that, cheers from Poland. Therion is the best band and there is no other like them, and I mean the albums from Symphony Masses to Sitra Ahra.
Your selection of songs is amazing! I appreciate your work in this video! Therion the best!
Muchas gracias por subir esta colección, cuantas cosas te hacen sentir los sonidos de sus canciones. Therion, la mejor banda!!!
I first heard them in 2000 or 2001, I was still in high school, and tried to collect every possible metal album with mythological and/or Tolkien topics. I love Therion till now. Their kind of music was a real revelation in then still isolated Bulgaria.
How is Bulgaria now?Are the things getting better?
@@iliyanyosifov Think so. At least, I can find and buy any kind of music relatively easily :)
Thanks for this 😊 I just randomly stumbled on this band ‘litany of fallen’ and was hooked
Me also.
Ginnungagap!! The favourite song for me including all his album 👍👍
Greetings from Mexico!
I have always liked Therion, I remember the 1st time I ever heard them was in a Scorpions cover, Fly to the Rainbow from the A'arab zaraq lucid dreaming album, I just fell in love with them, got out of the loop for so much time, but I'm back to listen to some more beautifully composed music.
My favorite all time album as of right now, is Les fleurs du mal, is not just different, is a work of art.
That album, is what's gonna mark the 2010's for me, it is like the Moonspell's Wolfheart of the current decade.
But, Why compare Moonspell with Therion, you might ask... no, I'm not comparing them, Therion is in a higher level musically, but the Wolfheart album is the mark of an era for a lot of people, me included, is the kind of album you could listen once and again and again from the 1st to the last second, the same can be said from Les fleurs du mal for me, I just could listen to it as many times as humanly possible.
Another big player in my personal taste, is Haggard with the album And thou shalt trust... the seer.
Even thou people didn't like Anette Olsen so much, Dark passion play from Nightwish is also one of my all time favorite Albums.
Sorry for the long uncalled for comment, just needed to get that out of my chest, and 90% of the people I know loves and cheers other kind of misogamist and poorly composed popular music from all Latin America.
Good selections and thanks for this awsome vid , mate !
I'm a big fans of Therion too since 1990.
Greeting n saludos from Malaysia.
Being a Therion fan for more than 20 years, I really enjoyed this video! In fact I don't think I've seen something similar before. We could talk a lot about the selection of songs but with such a vast discography it's really hard to narrow it down to 20 or even 30 songs. Anyway, great job!
Great, my favorite band, a good selection of songs, I saw them live in Zlín, professionals, I was there with my little daughter, we shook hands with them ... incredible people
They are my fav band ever. I still miss Lori, Karlsson, Snowy, Mats and the Niemans... it was my fav line up... but this is the one band I could not give up. I am so excited for the next album!!!! specially after the (how much I dislike) french album and (I am not a fan and will never be) the beloved antichrist. I am so positive for new album!!!!!!!
We miss the old Therion
missing old days...
who brings the best combination of classic and metal? the answer is Therion , awesome!
Ending with Raven of Dispersion is the best choice ever!
Ginnungagap!! what a trance!
Indeed the very best of Therion. 👌
for me Theli was like eyeopening. it was my first contact with therion. but with vovin i got adicted to therion. Now, one of my greatest favorit is the Feuerovertüre. Thx for this mix. I realy like it.
Sandra, you're amazing
This is the best music group ever. PERIOD!
Secret of the Runes is second to none
I'm really looking forward to next year when Beloved Antichrist comes out. It's always exciting to see where Therion will go next.
Their albums are so different, I keep expecting to not like the next one... hasn't happened yet though!
Мощно, сильно, напористо и тем не менее изящно, красиво и завораживающее...
Thanks so much for all the inside-information about Therion, really appreciated it!
I love Therion so much, magic indeed!!!
There are many songs you could have included - but I will mention only one: Wine of Aluqah. Other than that, amazing compilation. Thanks for sharing!
Best band ever
🎼Many thx & respect 4 this.

THERION son grandes y son unicos, no importa cuantas otras bandas de este genero haya, solo Therion fusiona la musica clasica, la opera y el metal creando un sonido propio.
Therion es mi favorita aunque Haggard lo hace muy bien a su estilo y es auténtico su sonido
Velmi dobry vyber toho najlepsieho
Therion, Epica, Amberian Dawn, Xandria, perhaps the best melodic metal bands ever.

1:33:23 rAVEN of dispersion. One of Their greatest song!
Ópera,crassic music and heavy metal,maybe with a lotta pop music.it is so fucking Very good.
Deggial is such a delight !, Best album
I doubt the opinion that Therion were the first metal band to bring an orchestra on stage but of course love them, too.
55:34 The Rise of Sodom and Gomorrah
Excelent selection. I just would add Helheim.
i forgot about helheim in the sequel, too! xD lolz
Coincido con la lista de temas, son de lo mejor de Therion a través del tiempo.
No hay palabras simplemente..👍👌👍
Uma das minhas bandas favoritas
muy bueno... crying days..
es cover
good job, Mate, good job.... I love Therion
This is epic
by the way, :D I got drunked 2 times with the whole band in Praha and Bratislava after the concert ... except Christopher, Mr. Therion him self, just politely stopped by, to say hallo :D
nice, man
Awesome in concert !
THE SIREN OF THE WOODS ?????????????
-true!
I just wanted to post the same question, but had to made sure someone else have not before me, and what do you know... Top comment.
22:00 man, this one would be cool for a soundtrack of Saint Seiya in Poseidon Saga...
it's really supreme magic music
the live versions 💜
Perfect!
nice mix
My favorite one álbum is secrets of the runes too ,excelent álbum .ljusalfheim wow wow amazing
My favourite band. Great list but unfortumately I don't see Deggial here.
I decided that I'd like to have there The Invincible and Enter Vril-Ya a bit more than Deggial although it's also a brilliant song.
OTIMA COPILAÇAO!! THANKS!!!
Concordo, esse disco é sensacional em todos aspectos. 👏👏
Being an old fart,77,this and Nightwish is what i consider to be adult rock.I only rece ntly discovered the m.Cant get enough as the current music sucks,i haven't listened to radio for years as im tired of the same songs and artists over and over again.
Best compilation
beautiful
