Just imagine Dark Tranquillity plays this song live, together with Anders. I would pay a lot of money to see this!

one of the best death metal albums ever...

Melodic death metal at it's best.

0:31 riff out of this world :D

The bass playing was amazing on early DT

Before I die, I want this song to be played by Dark Tranquillity (or The Halo Effect) be played live with Anders Friden for the other vocalist.

one of the greatest songs ever

One of their best songs!!

Fucking awesome, love all your music guys, but this album is just crazy, just fucking unbelievable, one of the best in Metal history.

The best of all duets up to now

Absolutely fantastic! One of the best songs in this fantastic album

STILL.. the best metal track of all time! eva. You'll neva change my mind.

Masterpiece!!!

increíble. Anders singin' with Mikael

Fuck yea. So awesome. I love the flow of this song. Masterful.

Most possibly the best melodic death metal band ever existed. Dark Tranquillity are the pioneers on this genre either we like it or not! Amazing musicians and excellent composers....Not to mention the absolutely poetic lyrics....Just total RESPECT!

Anders Friden and Mikael Stanne singing together, truly a song that honors its' title!

uuuu spicy

Old school melodeath are almost close to none these days. I miss those days where it was purely death metal with more melody. Instead we get boring melodic music with growls in our present time.

In Flames and Dark Tranquility are shells of their former selves, but other than that, old school melodeath bands are still dope. Also, to add on to what Love Metal said, Wintersun, in my opinion, is the BEST band out today.

Lo! Ve. Friends, it seems that I find myself inextricably cleft between a shadow of beauty and a shadow of darkness. Two serenades interlaced and intertwined in fevered phantasm. One for the night, One for the uncontroll. Wherein lies balance? No! Where? The inner light and its twisted reflection. Eye find no beauty lies When staring through smuged lenses. Logic! Chaos! Logic! Yet with one thought - Merging the mundane and the magic- The entire construct of sorrow's architect May be left in the slience in between - what only you know - By our state of trust In the tranquillity that lie Beyond enlightenment. Hark! Now is the time For our vernal awakening. All sought in mine faeryland forgotten - Alone in mind - Is borne of chaos and eternal night. Skywards! Bearen of crimson winds To where fires cannot feed Surface the infinite And realize "I am " out of gravity Find life unfurled by dawn. The misery in me Fueled by perpetual ego drama Encaged in still moving sinews Leave the Gallery of Yesterworld With ye I plea It's all the same None of this was ever built to last. The emptiness from which I fed When nightfell on the shores of time Lost midway through infinity The momentary bliss Is my friend of misery The bringer of torture I, deception So Away! Delight! Away! Endtime hearts Are but apathetic To the static of the darkness outside. When the world screams at the clearing of skies- haunted by oblivion dreams- yield not to the lies of the Enemy My dear friends Undo control.

Death metal at their best!!!!!
