"Dont click it!" said my tech death brain. "Its just some black metal. You never liked any of it besides Imperial Triumphant - YT is always wrong with recommendations, remember?". F it, its 2 am and its not like i got anything better to do. Lets just check the first track... 48 mins later I'm pretty blown away I must say. Happy i stayed for the ride. Edit 1 day later: what a weird timing, went to a beatdown/deathcore show the day after I wrote this and found out that DWEF are playing the SAME venue the next day. So yea ofc I went. On my way home now with the LP in my hands. They are fantastic live.
@@JimTheEditor even better. They had Dávid Mako of The Devil's Trade who did guest vocals on immortal as their opening act and they did the song together. That was pretty awesome!
Just hit replay for the 3rd time. I am having a hard time expressing how much I fucking love their works. I am gonna see them Live tomorrow for the first time, and I am stoked. They have been THE band for me, for a many many years.
So'n Unsinn :) Na im Ernst, ich habe mich da halbwegs vorurteilsarm durchgequält und fand's weder avantgardistisch, noch irgendwie "frisch" oder großartig "anders". Das ist nicht meins und nach dem Hören liebe ich dieses Album zu genau 0%. Das ist nicht schlimm, ich kann es hören, ohne leiden zu müssen, was aber nicht der Anspruch ist, den ich an Musik, die ich lieben könnte, habe. Dennoch werde ich kommenden Donnerstag in Schlotheim evtl. nochmal reinhören, vielleicht blasen die Herren mich ja live schier von den Füßen, auch wenn ich nun nicht mehr so vorurteilsarm herangehen kann. Hat's alles schon gegeben. Schaun mer mal, denn: Wo die Liebe hinfällt... English translation: Let's see :)
Ich hab generell lange für DWEF gebraucht, angefangen mit "Die letzte Sonne", was YT mir wieder und wieder vorgeschlagen hatte. Dann mehr von Stellar gehört, danach Finisterre. Das hat mich sehr schnell abholt. Nokturn hab ich mich dann auch wieder schwer getan, es wollte nicht zünden. Letzte Woche hab ich DWEF endlich live gesehen und damit kam ich auch an das neue Album. Seitdem läuft fast nix anderes mehr...
I started listening but gave up after 30 seconds... Did the pre-order since it became available and will wait for the vinyl arrival for the full "first listen" experience, since this is probably going to be my album of the year.
I've been listening to this album since the day it was released in 2021. Until this day, it is my favorite. Haunting, beautiful, longing. Much love from Ukraine 🖤
This album is beautiful, mesmerizing and crushing all together. Der Weg Einer Freiheit reminded me today why they are my favorite band of all time. Hail from the other side of the globe.
This will go down in metal history as one of the best metal albums ever, a gold standard for a great album. Stellar tracks, experimentation, and all done without them being told what kind of album to make.
Dear Season of Mist, Please send two of the best bands in the world, Ne Obliviscaris and Der Weg einer Freiheit, on tour together. Thank you for making the dream lineup of a lifetime happen. Neil
Saw them together 2015 in Hannover, Germany, and they respect each other a lot. Would be incredible for everybody involved to see these bands on tour together :-)
Just finished listening to this for the 4th time this morning !!! Can't stop listening !!! Simply Amazingly Beautiful and Brutal Another Fuckin ¥ Masterpiece ¥ of an Album !!! Hail The Mighty Der Weg Einer Freiheit 🤘🔥🤘🔥🤘🔥🤘
This is truly strange. I was reading and suddenly I thought, well, I want to listen to Unstille (from DWEF), so I looked for the band on RUclips, and then I found this album uploaded today. I guess you don't look for some wonders, they just find you. And this album is a wonder. Honestly, one of their best. Pre-ordering now. Thanks a lot for the full album stream. lml
Perfect album. Listening to 8th times Gegen Das Licht... Superb! Exceptional final for a song... Congratulations. Greetings from Istanbul. Already shared with metalhead friends.
These dudes can’t write a bad riff, they’re all so good and evoke so much feeling! Thank you for writing such awesome songs in a genre full of shitty bands and riffs.
Thank you for this beautiful gift of an album. It’s brutaful. A combination word of beautiful and brutal. From LA with admiration to y’all wherever ye may be. Thanks!
On dirait que MUSE a fait un album de blackmetal, dans l'esprit, les mélodies mélancolique, par la puissante basse dans le mixage, et notamment sur des titres comme Monument, Immortal et Haven (qui aurait pu être carrément un titre du groupe susnommé)... Franchement, j'adore, ça change un peu de leurs (très bons) albums précédents qui sonnaient plus post-black. Ces mecs sont réellement talentueux ! Une des plus belles sorties de l'année.
Der Satz: "Erdrückt vom Gewicht unserer unteilbaren Schätze" in Monument hat mich umgehauen. Liest sich, wie ein Gefühl, dass ich oft in mir trage.. "Gegen das Licht" hat mir ebenso die Tränen in die Augen getrieben. Ich habe gerade die Vinyl bestellt. Ihr habt noch mal ne Schippe auf eine kaum zu toppende VorgängerPlatte draufgelegt. Das ist ein umwerfend tolles Album.
A lot of unexpected (?) territory explored on this album. The last track gave me the same feeling Melancholie by ColdWorld did when I first heard it years and years ago. Diverse and still distinctly DWEF - congrats on an excellent and ambitious album.
Was für ein unfassbar gutes Album. Wenn das vinyl Mastering auch nur im Ansatz nen Zacken Atmosphärischer ist als hier, habe 7ch am Wochenende sehr viel Spaß 👌
Unsere Vinyl sieht fantastisch aus und klingt entsprechend super. Ist wirklich unglaublich wertig gemacht, aber mittlerweile vertraue ich der Band auch blind. Nichts als Qualität, und das bei jedem einzelnen Album.
So fucking great! Its just amazing how creative you guys can be, in a mix of violent speed and that peacefull calm. Best album of the year, for sure!!! Thank you!!!!
For the last song DWEF be like "hey, let's write an Alcest Song!". It only needed Neige to feature on it. 😄 Since I like Alcest, this is fine for me. I like how diverse their discography got.
This band just doesn't disappoint. Easily one of the best black metal bands in my opinion.
Agree 100%
Such an underrated band in general.
@@ultimatedeathmetal plz mister, could you name a few bands that sounds exactly like DWEF?
@@lucasoliveira2156 Try Agrypnie, 16485. Some similarity there.
@@lucasoliveira2156 check out Miserere Luminis

Listen to the rest of the band too, they are truly incredible
One of the best. You might want to check Schammasch as well
What an amazing coincidence. Good timing on seeing them playing the venue the very next day. Congrats, bruh.
@@JimTheEditor even better. They had Dávid Mako of The Devil's Trade who did guest vocals on immortal as their opening act and they did the song together. That was pretty awesome!
I'm smiling, because you're another one who "got it". Congrats on discovering this great band.
Pure catharsis...
It feels like falling into a sea of suffering and despair.
I love it
If you want to find, suffering and despair, you have to check the Human Serpent!!!
One of my favorite albums. Gives me goosebumps.
Just hit replay for the 3rd time. I am having a hard time expressing how much I fucking love their works. I am gonna see them Live tomorrow for the first time, and I am stoked. They have been THE band for me, for a many many years.
Have fun at the show!
shit, i'm so jealous. i hope they can come to the states some day.
Have fun! ♥ I'll see them on December 3rd, literally cannot wait.
@@ian3829 You should visit Bavaria! Small venues, good music and tasty beer is a lovely combination
@@crestfallen821 ledier nicht :////
You are going to love this album 100%.

Heart-wrenchingly painful and beautiful at the same time. Speechless.
tooo much love for this....Phaf from Tswapong Hills, Botswana, Aferika
Thank you!
last Saturday in strasbourg ...... boum ! Violence and melody in the face like a very faster train ! Whaouh !!!!!! Thanks DER WEG EINER FREIHEIT !!!
Love the Interstellar riff in Finisterre II.
Thought I was the only one noticing
What a rip-off
Ok, so I'm not alone thinking that.
@@TheRise08 first time listening this, and i was looking for this in the comments lol
Unglaubliches Album! Nach Finisterre hatte ich regelrecht unerfüllbare Erwartungen, aber die wurden fast noch übertroffen. Ein Meisterwerk.
Gegen das licht is the best song i've heard in the past 2 or 3 years, and one of the best black metal songs ever. Oh my god...
I started listening but gave up after 30 seconds...
Did the pre-order since it became available and will wait for the vinyl arrival for the full "first listen" experience, since this is probably going to be my album of the year.
*Definitely going to be. Enjoy.
Same…. I have to resist until I can pick up the vinyl pre-order. It hurts…
@@persevasara It arrived one day in advance. I'm mesmerized.
The bar has been set extremely high by this release, yes. I am just stunned.
It definitely is the album of the year imo. Seems like 2021 wanted to apologize
Im Schneesturm. Am Rande der Dunkelheit. Ich konnte mir in diesem Moment nichts Schöneres vorstellen. Danke für ein weiteres Meisterwerk \m/
I wasnt expecting those beautiful clean vocals on last song!
I've been listening to this album since the day it was released in 2021. Until this day, it is my favorite. Haunting, beautiful, longing. Much love from Ukraine 🖤
This album is beautiful, mesmerizing and crushing all together.
Der Weg Einer Freiheit reminded me today why they are my favorite band of all time.
Hail from the other side of the globe.
Impresionante álbum
Dieses Album ist wirklich wunderschön, musste beim Hören mit den Tränen kämpfen...
Freue mich schon, euch übermorgen live zu sehen
Eine musikalische Weiterentwicklung. Atmosphärisch, episch,ein tolles Album. Masterpiece. 👌🏻🤘🏻
Danke für das Release Konzert in Köln. Nach all der Zeit ohne Konzerte eine wahre Wohltat fürs Gemüt!
Huge, emotive, atmospheric, beautiful sounding music, need to see them live
Don’t worry they’re alive right now!
This will go down in metal history as one of the best metal albums ever, a gold standard for a great album. Stellar tracks, experimentation, and all done without them being told what kind of album to make.
Great, great, great, I'm melting away

Mit NOKTVRN habt ihr euch selbst übertroffen! So viel Gefühl, so viel Leidenschaft habe ich selten beim Hören eines Albums erlebt! Danke dafür 🙏
Una joya, que hermoso trabajo. Gracias SOM \m/. Grande Nikita
This album and Finisterre are tied for my favorite album from this band
Absolutely magnificent. DWEF has given us one of the best BM albums of the year.
Without "Immortal" it would be a banger album I wouldn't skip a song of. But this... what the hell is this.......? O.o
It´s such a treat, what an amazing band!
Loved it!
@@deliathorja442 🤘🖤
what a glorious sounding album
Keine Ahnung wie ihr es immer wieder hinbekommt euch mit jedem neuen Album selbst zu übertreffen. Der Knaller, danke dafür!
Definetly one of the best albums of the year!
Whenever one of their songs start tears well up in the back of my eyes. Incredible music.
It's hard to find words to describe this. Stunning album. Explosive kaleidoscope of emotions.
The future of This great band is Glory! Awesome sound, awesome álbum... 🤟. Congrats.
Nice one !
What a majestic album!
Saw them on Sunday, they´re such a sick live band. Immortal was crazy, David Mako completely on fire...damn
This album is wonderful, a spiritual and magical journey. ✨
Perfect album. Listening to 8th times Gegen Das Licht... Superb! Exceptional final for a song... Congratulations. Greetings from Istanbul. Already shared with metalhead friends.
Vay be
Super Album , Merci pour cette Album "!!!!!!!"!
Na endlich, kann's kaum erwarten euch endlich wieder live zu sehen!
Awesome! with Deafheaven´s album the best ones of 2021.
ALBUM OF THE YEAR! Hands down one of the most beautiful things in a long time!
yes
This is heavy - loved it all. Thanks for the experience!
These dudes can’t write a bad riff, they’re all so good and evoke so much feeling! Thank you for writing such awesome songs in a genre full of shitty bands and riffs.
Can't wait for my vinyl to come in! This band deserves every success. Congratulations guys, wonderful album!
Their best album, and I love them all
Great album.
This album is amazing. One of the biggest highlights of this year! I immediately ordered the boxset.
beautiful album this is a masterpiece
A work of art. Love it
also nach 5x durchlaufen lassen glaube ich, das it das BESTE DWEF Album!!!!
wow, TO what do We owe this honor. These guys are super talented and becoming one of my favorite BLack Metal acts.
Gegen is maybe the best song they ever composed...live version is even better. Chapeau, guys 😎👍
when madness meets calm, or when the scream of despair meets the purest and most sincere smile. I would have called this album Antagonist....
Brutal! Jeder Track ist DOPE! Liebe HAVEN. Klargesang steht euch ebenfalls sehr.
Thank you for this beautiful gift of an album. It’s brutaful. A combination word of beautiful and brutal. From LA with admiration to y’all wherever ye may be. Thanks!
Thank you for this superior form of art. Again.
Sublimal, and truly incredible, love every second of it 🖤🖤☠️☠️🤘🤘

So cool how Monument and Gegen das Licht share a leitmotif.
Adore this band. Incredible stuff as always. Instant purchase
Das absolute Meisterwerk! Tolles Album!🤘
Really digging how present the bass guitar is. Bass guitar gets lost all too often in Black Metal. Not here.
😍... verdammt geil!!!🤘
Seriously great songwriting in here. Heard this one making waves in the underground, I do certainly understand why. Top notch!
A lot of unexpected (?) territory explored on this album. The last track gave me the same feeling Melancholie by ColdWorld did when I first heard it years and years ago. Diverse and still distinctly DWEF - congrats on an excellent and ambitious album.
That Gegen Das Licht is really something.
The first notes sounds like the Interstellar theme!
yeah I heard it too! It would be cool to know if it was intentional or not!
Edit: I asked the band on IG and no, it was a funny coincidence!
Yepp
MAJESTAT!!!
Awesome! DWEF keeps getting better and more intriguing
