    • @thimovijfschaft3271
      @thimovijfschaft3271 6 лет назад +6

      I was during the whole Feathers and Flesh hype. I didn't know what they were making but they were just posting so many video's and pictures from the production in the studio. Even the skiing video's they posted were related to the studio (for the wind in Sky burial). That was cool. I liked that. But on the other hand randomly bringing a song is nice too. It's like "Good morning! We have a new song for you!"

      TexasSmoking Personally, I think John is one of the most interesting and fun drummers to watch play. He makes things more interesting than just playing, headbanging, and making the "Lars face" that EVERY metal drummer over the past 25 years has imitated.
      But, congratulations. You have an opinion, which I will now validate with attention. Gold star, pal! Feel better?

    Lyrics:
    On this glorious day we're all citizens
    By all your warrior's names we swear diligence
    Lay the first stone we lay at your feet
    All the world trembles, begs and flees
    Everybody wants one
    Everybody needs one
    Everybody heard the word, it's a sign
    Well, no one else can make one
    If you're the one to take one
    But I know that you know
    You know, that I don't lie
    Everybody wants one
    Everybody needs one
    But they don't grab a stone, the rocks, the box
    So they can own your sword
    But we don't wanna share one
    We have worked so hard, so hard, alone
    Harder than steel is my king's will
    Emissaries, dignitaries, ladies and gentlemen
    My beloved citizens
    It is time to ignite the mighty flame
    Of the royal beacon
    And then unveil the statue of our ruler
    We celebrate, we built
    A statue of the king
    Bigger than the last one
    Bigger than the best one
    Bigger than the tracks we drag to these trains
    There's nothing to compare to
    No one can prepare you
    But I know that you know
    You know, that I don't lie
    Stronger than the last one
    Bigger than the best one
    Make it from the stone and rocks and moss
    So you can try to make one
    Cause we ain't gonna show one
    We all worked so hard, so hard, so hard
    Emissaries, dignitaries, ladies and gentlemen
    My beloved citizens
    It is time to ignite the mighty flame
    Of the royal beacon
    And then unveil the statue of our ruler
    We celebrate, we've built
    A statue of the king
    Harder than steel is my king's will
    Emissaries, dignitaries, ladies and gentlemen
    My beloved citizens
    It is time to ignite the mighty flame
    Of the royal beacon
    And then unveil the statue of our ruler
    We celebrate, we've built
    A statue of the king

    On this glorious day we're all citizens
    By all your warrior's names we swear diligence
    Lay the first stone we lay at your feet
    All the world trembles, begs and flees
    Everybody wants one
    Everybody needs one
    Everybody heard the word, it's a sign
    Well, no one else can make one
    If you're the one to take one
    But I know that you know
    You know, that I don't lie
    Everybody wants one
    Everybody needs one
    But they don't grab a stone, the rocks, the box
    So they can own your sword
    But we don't wanna share one
    We have worked so hard, so hard, alone
    Harder than steel is my king's will
    Emissaries, dignitaries, ladies and gentlemen
    My beloved citizens
    It is time to ignite the mighty flame
    Of the royal beacon
    And then unveil the statue of our ruler
    We celebrate, we built
    A statue of the king
    Bigger than the last one
    Bigger than the best one
    Bigger than the tracks we drag to these trains
    There's nothing to compare to
    No one can prepare you
    But I know that you know
    You know, that I don't lie
    Stronger than the last one
    Bigger than the best one
    Make it from the stone and rocks and moss
    So you can try to make one
    Cause we ain't gonna show one
    We all worked so hard, so hard, so hard
    Emissaries, dignitaries, ladies and gentlemen
    My beloved citizens
    It is time to ignite the mighty flame
    Of the royal beacon
    And then unveil the statue of our ruler
    We celebrate, we've built
    A statue of the king
    Harder than steel is my king's will
    Emissaries, dignitaries, ladies and gentlemen
    My beloved citizens
    It is time to ignite the mighty flame
    Of the royal beacon
    And then unveil the statue of our ruler
    We celebrate, we've built
    A statue of the king

    I'm not typically as into growly vocals (ie black/thrash metal) but there is absolutely nothing I don't love about this band, the instrumentals, the vocals, this video, or simply how I felt watching it for the 100th time in a row. Similar to some of the comments below, I've been a rock/alternative/metal fan for a very long time and absolutely can't believe I haven't heard Avatar before 2020. It will take time fully discovering their catalog but I'm looking forward to it.
