    After one but before the next,
    In a tree where new life writhed and flexed
    Two birds emerged to hold the world
    And grow from feeble talons curled
    But fate see them part that day
    As lightning cut their branch away
    By winds to distant places sent
    Almost as if it all had meant
    That though their bloodied wounds would fade,
    They'd wonder where their brother lay
    For every day from that day on
    They'd wait to hear a certain song
    In vain, for years, thought one was strong
    And one was not, for far too long
    Until his bones and thoughts were old,
    And feathers burnt and lost and cold
    The stronger of the two could see
    A distant bird, how weak was he
    In drawing near but knowing not,
    Just who he was, or why, or what
    the stronger talons tore at flesh
    And stripped away that feathered mess
    And all without a sound or cry,
    Or even ever knowing why
    Yet as the sun began to sink
    He seemed to sense, he seemed to think
    That soon his brother might appear
    From somewhere close, from somewhere near
    Convinced this was his brother's fate,
    Above his corpse, he sat... to wait

    Be'lakor is so underrated, it's ridiculous.

    Love Be'lakor. It's sad they don't have as big a following as they should. They are masterful at writing music. My favorite by them is Abeyance. Check it out next, if you do another Be'lakor song!!

    Such a underated band. Incredible talent and musicianship. Every song is good that they have written.

    I must admit; I teared up. Such symbolism in the lyrics, so much passion in both the instruments and the vocal instrument. This is a fuckin' masterpiece.

    This is my first time hearing of this band. I liked this song from its start. The transitions were wonderful. I have a new band to get to know now. 🤘

    Be'lakor is so underrated. One of the best melodeath bands today. Glad to see you reacting to them.
    This is by far my favorite Be'lakor song, too. Always get chills when listening to this one. Great choice.

    This album Of Breath and Bone is an easy 10/10 album for me, you can listen/react to it with no skips, that being said this is their best release IMO.
    My order of preference (1 highest)
    1 - Of Breath and Bone
    2 - Stone's Reach
    3 - The Frail Tide
    4 - Vessels

    Be'lakor is one of my favorite bands and one of the best ones i've ever heard, i think they are still a very underrated band, all people should love them, they are true geniuses.

    Not a fan of that style of singing, but the playing and arranging are out of this world. Is this what they call melodic death metal? I dig it.
    Great video again, Ruben. Thanks!

    • @gruulrules1426

      Try Insomnium if you want to experience Melodic death metal! Here are some recommendations:
      While we sleep
      Revelation
      Weather the storm
      Black heart rebellion

    7:06 the best part. So lucky to have just stumbled across the entire album, but this part always stood out to me as some of the best music I've ever heard in my life.

  • @amarok9097
    @amarok9097 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Strongly recommend the Album Vessels a concept album which traces photon of light (seriously) escaping the pull of the sun and providing life. It initially supports a plant, being a vessel, then as that is destroyed or eaten it passes to the next vessel finally finishing with a man in the song "A smoke of Many fires". Recommend "An Embers Arc" and "Roots to Sever"

    Happy you loved the song! I've been lucky to see Belakor live twice here in Brisbane and Melbourne. All I can say is they are SENSATIONAL! The fans of Belakor are so mellow, happy and friendly, lots of eyes closed, heads gently rocking with smiling faces, allowing Belakor to take then on a wonderful musical adventure during the shows, and plenty of bouncing when the tempo calls for it :-) Try "Abeyance" for something else off this album or "The Smoke Of Many Fires" for something off their current album. Each of their Album's have their own strengths but "Breath and Bone" is a wonderful album to start your journey with :-)

    One of my favs to listen to. Poor birdie.😭
    Some days I feel like the healthy brother, unwittingly destroying that which he seeks, and some days I feel like the weaker brother, getting pummeled by life left & right. Today it's a mix of both. 🤬... 🤷‍♀️

    Be'lakor always reminds me of old Paradise Lost. Once joined a concert of Paradise Lost in old Tivoli in Utrecht. Was really killing. Glad I made it out alive. This song was outstanding. Atmosphere goes deep. Cheers Cognacman 😄

    Be Lacor is the best melodic death band around. Maybe Insomnium are close to compare. And this whole album is a perfect ten.

    • @gruulrules1426

      The black dahlia murder is the best melodic death metal band imo. (Although theyre much heavier than insomnium or belakor)

    For a change of pace, listen to one of my favorite metal songs, The Mob Rules by Black Sabbath. Ronnie James Dio sings it and it is a killer track. Enjoy!
