#Leprous #RunningLow #Aphelion
The fact that these guys can come out with new music that is completely different every time but still sounds like “Leprous” amazes me. A true progressive band.
Half of me is always like, man they really have changed since stuff like Contaminate Me but goddamn this is still prog and Einar's voice is still the the strongest you can get in any subgenre of modern rock
Yeah like P.T use to
@@LuigiFuckingRocks89 I'm so grateful the vocals still pack a punch, some vocalists lose that easily over time
@@agitatedzone defo. Einar is easily at his studio strongest vocally in Pitfalls, though that is probably more the mix being more vocal oriented in that one
@@LuigiFuckingRocks89 Well even back then Contaminate Me was a bit of an outlier. That song featured Ihsahn and I feel the song was done in a style more befitting Ihsahn's black metal roots.
That was beautiful
Getting a new Sleep Token song AND a new Leperous song within a week is the best thing to happen this year
didn't expected to see u' here, mate...
Pls, make a react from this :')
My boi Nik listens to Leprous?? Yooooo lets goooo
Had no clue Nik listened to Leprous. A well cultured man😂
So "Attempting to learn Leprous" vid when?
The only good thing that comes out of this pandemic is that many bands writing albums. 🥰
I think about this alot.. good time for bands to write ..
I don't really see any bands recording music faster than usual to be honest.
ti gamas i de ti gamas tora?
ainte me tis malakies bradiatika
Sadly, some bands are delaying as hell, like Symphony X.
How is it possible that one band, after so many years, still manages to be surprising? Absolutely fantastic. So many flavours, so skilfully combined.
@@cyrollan Bilateral is what defined their sound and I can definitely hear this album in all of them since.
My favourite example is At the Bottom, I feel like this track could even have been on Bilateral.
But in my opinion they peaked at Malina and Pitfalls.
How old are you....9??
@@MinombreEsRafael Who, me? I am turning 12 in July, FYI.
@@eastofwarden I wouldn't say pitfalls is my favourite album but At The Bottom is one of the best I've heard from any modern prog band
ciao
I would recommend using a spade for that kind of work, son. Not a shovel. Learn the difference, and digging will be a lot more fun. Also, it will save your back. And your shovel, for that matter. The shovel will wear out with that kind of treatment. Next thing, you will need to use your spade for shoveling and that is ineffective as the surface is a lot smaller, and will carry less soil. There are classes you can take for this kind of gardening, or you can ask your local merchant for advice. I also notice that grass needs mowing. There´s a lot of great machinery to be purchased for that kind of work these days, if you have the funding. You can also do it manually, but that will take time and effort. Other than that; that´s a nice song you got there. Here´s me rooting for you.
Top-tier comment
XD
Made me smile,thank You!!
@@WujekAlucard Good on you, you´re most welcome.
Treat a spade well and it will last you a lifetime. Sure, you might need to change the blade, and the shaft will need replacing a few times, but it'll still be your trusty old spade.
Damn that cello solo, nice to see Leprous adding strings and brass!
What drugs where you on, when writing that?
Brass, not winds :D
@@dragonguitarforce In spanish we say wooded winds and metal winds, but you are right, in English it's brass, I will change it :D
@@victormontielpiano Ah, interesting! Now my mind is at peace ;)
This is how gentlemen disagree. Good job boys.
Unlike certain other bands/artists who claim to be "exploring" while becoming painfully regressive and generic, Leprous is actually constantly pushing boundaries and surprising me in awesome ways. This is once again so Leprous but so different. Brilliant.
Like Pain of Salvation used to be back in the day.
Soul. Leprous is doing soul music.
I love how you put that! "Claim to be "exploring" while becoming painfully regressive and generic"
I'm always trying to give bands the benefit of the doubt but.... they're just doing what you said!
Yeah. Especially in prog. Most bands stop innovating after two or three records (Dream theater, Periphery, polyphia, etc.), but Leprous have managed to stay incredibly creative and continue to push the boundaries of their sound. No two records of theirs sound the same, and there isn't a weak release among them. That is a rare achievement in music.
@@animal1439 i feel like tesseract have been keeping it fresh so far
Get back up on your throne
Left you there all alone
I've been running, I've been running low
Take back all your glory
The never ending story
I've been running, I've been running low
Time to make amends
Make sure that it ends
I've been laying, I've been laying low
Settle your direction
Narrow your selection
I've been running, I've been running low
Come back, come back to celebrate
Get back, get back the revelations
Sit back, sit back
Sit back
Hard to look ahead
Remember when you've fled
I've been running, I've been running low
The last step to make peace
Feeling the release
I've been running, I've been running low
I see where you belong
And you can do no wrong
I've been laying, I've been laying low
Come back, come back to celebrate
Get back, get back the revelations
Sit back, sit back
Sit back, sit back
It's a miracle, miracle, miracle
Now it's liveable, liveable, liveable
Miracle, miracle, miracle
Now it's liveable, liveable, liveable
It's a miracle, miracle, miracle
Liveable, liveable, liveable
I was never asked to stay
I wouldn't go away
I've been running, I've been running low
I'm living still with the shame
Didn't know who to blame
I've been running, I've been running low
And now it's all up to you
To figure out what is true
I've been laying, I've been laying low
Come back, come back to celebrate
Get back, get back the revelations
Sit back, sit back
Sit back, sit back
Miracle, miracle, miracle
Now it's liveable, liveable, liveable
It's a miracle, miracle, miracle
Liveable, liveable, liveable
Miracle, miracle, miracle
Now it's liveable, liveable, liveable
Oh, miracle, miracle, miracle
Now it's liveable, liveable, liveable
The "I've been running, I've been running low" line can also be heard as "I've been running high, been running low". And I think that's really clever lyricism!
@@diegosolis9681 what
Me now: well, I guess this song is okay
Me in two weeks: IT'S MIRACLE MIRACLE OOOAOAOOOOOOAAAA
come on, come on, come on, lets get physical (Zaritskaya in the playlist just before that song)
so true hehe, at first youre like meh, then i catch myself humming the tune
yup. gotta get my daily dose now.
3 weeks later
True
Evil cello, evil orchestra, full rage Einar, jazzy guitars....it's not really possible for me not to love this. Sickening video, I love it. It felt like he was going to bury his bandmates, but he dug the grave for himself. Tells a story, love it.
Lol jazzy guitars
What story does it tell? A horrible one at the least
@@JohnSmith-hl7kd It's an artsy display of the macabre. I appreciate that, just like I appreciate a good thriller. Got a problem with that?
@@mariagheata2133 so there's no deeper meaning? No problem. Just wondering.
@@JohnSmith-hl7kd There might be, it might suggest very unapparent self sabotage, or self isolation. It might tell the story of someone who severed ties to people or feelings most important to them. It might illustrate someone ripping apart their own world, while being trapped in it. It might tell the story of someone who, while getting carried away with other aspects of their life, forgot about themselves and got trapped into their own lack of self awareness. It's a very suggestive and creative video. Art is almost always subject to interpretation.
I really dig the new direction. Sure, it's only 1 track so far, but I'm still loving the focus on instrumentals. The cello solo was killer and I love the overall evil vibe, works super well with the orchestra.
Actually Castaway Angels is going to be on the album!
It's quite different
@@metalheadd31 Oh wow, that's variety then. Because this sounds completely different from that.
Yeah, the horn & string work really stuck out for me...
ciao
All i can say about this song is IT'S MIRACLE, MIRACLE, MIRACLE
Why miracle...and not miraculous?
@@ovidiudumitrescu5898 i guess because they wanted it like that?
This is one band I'm fine with going in a different direction than their early stuff. They seem to be doing it right and are still just doing their own thing. Excited for this album.
Leprous took the “going in a different direction” thing and made it into a style. People will inevitably complain about this album like every one that has come out since like Bilateral, but I don’t think they understand the band at all.
I've only listened to the albums from The Congregation onward, and think they're badass. I found them from listening to a bunch of other metal bands and they were recommended by algorithms, but I didn't mind that what I heard didn't sound very "metal".
I actually listened to an older song recently and it just didn't grab me as much. I might be too used to their "new" direction.
@@ian2 All I "understand" is that Bilateral was amazing, and everything since has just been softer and more boring to me. The band can do what they want, but many people are rightly turned off from what they decided to do since Coal. They sound like they want to be the Bee Gees now.
I think king gizzard and the lizard wizard does it pretty well too personally.
@@ian2 Not sure this is much of a "band" anymore. It's an Einar solo project and somehow, he convinced the others to stay. Guess he felt the cache they'd already built with the name was worth something. This is a very cool song, though.
Leprous have the ability to compose a wide range of songs that all find a home in my inner ear.
Can you guys just do a bond film already. Jesus this is good.
THIS
Below would be a perfect Bond song
@@bakalaudia5620 Lower from congregation could be also be fantastic bond song.
@@danielalvarado6449 Dude, Bonneville from Malina would be _insane_ as a bond intro
@@danielalvarado6449 or the price
The guys voice and the string section is gorgeous. They go really well together.
I love how nothing is overpowering anything else in the mix. When you hone in on each individual instrument you realize how much work these guys have put in to make each of their intricate playing blend with each other in a complementary way.
i came for aaahhhhhhhhh.
check.
1:14
@@DiMoy5 yep.
The AAAAAAHHHH have won the war of AAAAHHHH Vs Hey-Hey
they never disappoint.
We all come for the aaahhhh
Been a fan of Leprous for close to half a decade at this point. I never get bored of the new directions and techniques they explore. Every album has its own charm and is a total joy to listen to, even when said joy is letting Einar pour his sorrow and anger into your soul.
Super excited for this album, and every other album y'all will drop in the future. Love y'all.
What’s exciting about this album is that THIS is the single.
Nah. What's exciting is that the album is from Leprous.
@@Ficcionismo1407 I think they mean more like "this - as wild as it is - is the 'safe' song from the album, so imagine what else there is to come?"
@@BroudbrunMusicMerge Yee
It sounds like they're going to be more adventurous and even better than they were on Pitfalls, and that says a lot because I do really like that album (along with Malina, and the bits and pieces I've heard of The Congregation).
@@BroudbrunMusicMerge Yes, I got it. And what *I* meant is that all o fthat is even MORE accurate because this is the band. It doesn't always happen what you're saying. Usually, the single is the best song on the album. With prog bands, and Leprous in particular, the rest of the album is even better, and it all just gets better with every listen.
Jesus, this band is so good.
I want to see an album in all Norwegian. Like how Opeth did an album in Swedish.
Norsk høres ikke bra ut.
@@einarthormodster95 😅🤣
@@einarthormodster95 I'm not sure what you just said, but it sounded beautiful.
Why?
@@XiyuYang why not?
So f’n weird. So f’n creative. I love it. Leave it to the Norwegians to develop the next level of creativity in music. Thumbs up. Truly refreshing.
Not many bands have been exploring all kind of musical genres with so much talent, and being able to mix them together and make them sound fantastic ! Such an intelligent musicality into this song !
It is an outstanding fusion of styles, seamlessly transitioned.
Metal bands doing pop better than pop does itself. Leprous are just phenomenal, so sad that they are "underrated" when compared to pop.
598 k views now, no pb to be underrated like them ;)
My thoughts too
I don't think leprous changed drastically over the last years, but every song seams way more thought-out and polished. an absolute pleasure to listen to
Wow... It's seriously outstanding. Whole Leprous and other musicians made me feel like im in a different world, it's another level in music. You're an essence of being "original". I see probably a big influence of fratres by arvo part, in music like represented by the band - it's a huge deal. You're my favourite "young" band, i know that everything you share will be good. Thank you for making my music world more beautiful.
This great musicians, with great music knowledge making their own music. They are in an amazing creative moment, similar to the best led Zeppelin age. But underrated due a saturated sea music scene.
"Young" indeed. It's their 20th anniversary this year!
I can listen to this for hours on loop. And I did
3:04 from one of the groovyest poppy choruses to pure chilling, dark and dramatic.
Leprous are too good
Guitar tone is unreal, love how heavy it can be without being metal and Robin's (now trademark) lead lines in the chorus. Leprous are the band for all us Porcupine Tree/TPT/Anathema refugees looking for the band to carry on and progress from the KScope golden era
Yes because you guys are cool and metal is so over, right? Pretentious much?
@@theodorev666 nah dude, totally the other way. Those bands introduced a lot of us to metal
@@blutos not gonna lie. I was a big fan of Coal and The Congregation but everything after that is a big steaming pile of shite...
@@theodorev666 Get a new set of ears if you think Malina or Pitfalls are a "steaming pile of shite", it's even funny that you called him pretentious while being an ass yourself.
Theodore Vasilopoulos Jeez, talk about being pretentious. Hardcore metal fans are some of the most elitist people you’ll find on the internet.
Bruh, first BTBAM, now Leprous is also releasing a new song. This is the best day of my life.
Btbam for sure?
@@rizkycaesar18 yeah dude, they also released a new title, just look it up
@@rizkycaesar18 also just checking, orang indo ngab?
@@ivomitink5716 wow i'm so late 😅😅
@@ivomitink5716 woh iya 😅😅
There're haunting, dramatic, terrifying, danceable and metal athmospheres in this song, which is progressive art and absolutely to adore.
I like how it's catchy and still fresh at the same time.
How bout that VIDEO....as incredible as the music is, that video....took EVERYTHING in, like a champ! Faith restored in music vids.
That "miracle" part caught me off guard, amazing work as always!
Same here. You have great taste in music! (Big POS fan here).
These guys managed to change up their style dramatically throughout the course of their career and still sound fresh. That being said, this song does give off some Grace For Drowning era Steven Wilson vibes, while sounding like a mix between Coal and Pitfalls with a hint of Bilateral, and I love it. I’m also loving that cello solo
IMHO, this sounds like what The Future Bites should've been. Poppy vocal hooks over an incredible groove with a rich arrangement.
@@stefanovitali2925 well they have pop vocal hooks since coal
Agree ! Strong Deadwing vibes too.
It's a miracle miracle miracle that we live in a time period where this band exists
WHY IS THIS SO GOOD
BECAUSE IT'S LEPROUS
Couldn't help notice that he's digging the grave with a flat edge snow shovel. Very tough to dig with those!
The lead guitar work (strat) at the chorus is 👌(chef's kiss)
2nd listen and yes, yes, YES! Great arrangements but that guitar shines!
Perfect song for next James Bond movie.
i hear Coal, i hear Malina, i hear Einar getting better and better, i love the hook, and of coarse my beautiful Baard boy is bringing the groove hard! first Castaway Angels, and now this. Can this get better?
Wouldn't it be cool for Rick Beato to do a "what makes this song great?" for Leprous? Wonder which one(s?) they'd do, but this is probably one of their coolest songs they've put out, imo
I may have requested a few times on Rick's comments 😂😂😂 If u have clout - go for it!
Im happy to see someone say this cause its literally my favorite leprous song. Never saw that coming.
Thats a wonderful idea. There is so much going on in their compositions
@@MaciekCzwartos Ur cover of Stuck is so good! 💙
There’s a guy that does “what makes this song stink” and it’s hilarious and well put together, he has done 4 of them so far
Needed a few listens but I've come to absolutely love this. The song may be a tad too straight forward for some of the older Leprous fans but Baard's drumming is a dynamic as ever, the strings arrangements are stellar, the buildups are very satisfying and the Cello solo seals the deal. Very exited for this album.
It may be straight forward for traditional Leprous fans, but it's still pretty damned different to most music out there, with the drums, chord progressions, dynamics etc.
@@marcusking8507 Very true but Prog fans are weird, once a band doesn't have as much different time sigs and 32nd notes as their older sound people will almost always give them crap regardless of the quality of their newer albums, I think this is genuinely wonderful and I thoroughly enjoyed Pitfalls but Prog fans can be snobbish I guess.
@@Gravityys Poor Steven Wilson :(
@@Gravityys Songwriting is key for me, which is one of the reasons I enjoyed Pitfalls myself. These guys get it right in a way that the likes of Opeth (whose earlier, 00s stuff I love) lost their grip on.
@@marcusking8507 Pitfalls was brilliant but Leprous haven't changed their sound as drastically as Opeth. I myself enjoy their post-Watershed material (although to varying degrees) but I think it's worth noting that bands like Opeth have evolved, pushed and experimented with their sound to the point where it might be difficult to put out anything that doesn't sounds derivative. Just my opinion tho, and I'm almost sure that Mikael's voice had a thing or two to do with the band getting rid of the Death Metal in their sound.
such a f*ckng masterpiece
This band is like fine wine. What a compositional achievement!
Buckle up everybody... Tomorrow is the day we've been waiting for
At their current pace, we can expect either a Leprous or a Haken album every single year.
Good deal.
Sound design,a funk refrain,a cello solo.....
PHEWWW
Black blues and gospel meets pop music in a progressive wrapper, spiced up with chamber music elements. Leprous are goddamn geniuses!
Absolute genius. I don't know this band but have heard this and 'castaway angels'. both are absolutely incredible. The epitome of prog rock.
WHAAAATTT? THIS IS SUCH A MASTERPIECE, JESUS!!!
How this video doesn't have a million views? This is a crime!
This band is a new discovery for me, since the pandemic. Truly outstanding, beautiful, haunting. Can't wait to see them live in Seattle later this month!!!!
6:00 That drum fill omg!
This is the best stuff I heard all my life. The drama, the ups and downs, the musicianmanship, the accents, the different intensitities... this is peak.
This is like King Crimson's newborn child. I genuinely got scared and I loved that!
Love that white blazer with the all black underneath look.
Oh, and the music is pretty sharp too!
If Castaway Angels and Running Low are any indication of the total quality of Aphelion then we sure are in for one hell of a ride
Let me guess, the other one is Haken.
@@Rouven41 What gave me away?
@@bosspoke Your Pb and your love for a simillar special band.
@@Rouven41 True true, I guess they are rather special.
@@bosspoke Yeah I love both of them!
SUPERB!!! Raphael is almost already a regular member of the band!... and its great!!!
Leprous is truly the prog metal masters (along side with Haken of course). It's not everyday you see a band that never has a "bad" song, everything is interesting and you discover more about the music with each listen. Absolutely love the new record, perfect music from a perfect band!
Ah, but what of Kingcrow or Pain of Salvation?
I'm a SPIRITUAL LYRICAL MIRACLE INDIVIDUAL
Ey B0ss
You got here 2 hours before me brother
Glad im not the only one who heard it
The Vanishing type of ending. Amazing song and amazing movie.
After 5 to 10 listens.... damn this song is great! I'm so hyped for the album!
I can't believe the "from the flame" box and key makes a revisit and we still dont know what is inside of it! ARGHH!
Still a very nice song although it took a couple of relistens for me. Can't wait for the new album!
What a discovery for me. Just awesome. 11/10.
Reminds me of Sleep Together by Porcupine Tree. Hell yes, Leprous killing it again.
Had no clue who these guys were but interesting to Porcupine Tree and Opeth fans here
When I listen to Leprous after a long time , it unlocks so many memories and I feel better, all the time
This band will be historic!!
Wow... It's unexpected... Powerful.
These guys need to get to the commercial success where they can tour with a full classical orchestra.
WOW! Instant new fan. What a joyous, fresh sound!
Loved it ❤
I just love the guitar's chord sequences from 4:10 dang
Pure chills. Absolutely stunning.
Beautiful song
My favorite song right now. Gave me goosebumps
The moment this song started, literally seconds into the track, I knew this album was going to be a magnificent journey. What I now realise, following listening to the album, I woefully underestimated it.
This may be "Running Low" but they always take musical expression and creativity and soar to new heights! Seriously one of the greatest bands to ever have existed.
It reminds me "Song Of I" from Steven Wilson ! :)
Organic, epic, bluesy. Nice new artistical direction.
White costumes, brass band and groovy vibe like the Bilateral era, great !
Another brilliant masterpiece from The Norwegian band:-)Makes me so proud to be an Norwegian:-)L and R to you all:-)
Gonna be a lot of _"Vocal coach reacts to..."_ videos.
Love the tasty riff by Robin during the chorus!
Looks like in 20 years Leprous will tour with whole orchestra. Fine, I love it!
This is magical. Song of the year right here, I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve listened to this song since it released.
"Prog Pop" is a thing now, thanks to these guys.
Cant wait for leprous to step back to prog metal or, even better and more of a surprise; Tech Death
@@splijter Prog metal has stagnated these last years as a genre, happy that these guys are trying something different
@@israco89 Leprous ages like a fine whine, very nice. But i am a beer drinker, this isn't brutal enough for my taste...
VOLA are the perfect example of prog and pop imo.
Its a miracle miracle miracle
3:19 watch as the melted wax from the candle drops on letters A and H now I dont wanna start any conspiracy shit here but it literaly means Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhh
What a journey. The contrast they created between the chorus and main theme is masterful!
Einar has an amazing voice, here is so emotional.
Wow beside the awesome song, I had forgotten how cool this video was! Needed a rewatch after yesterday's concert! :D It deserves more views!
The best band on the planet at this point!!!
The album is great, but this song is nearly perfect
Wow I was not expecting that change at the miracle/livable part... Great song. Can't wait for a full release from these guys.
WOW!! Seriously! This band always blows my mind! Every time they release something new I think "surely they can't get better"... Yet here we are! PUMPED for the new album!
Musicianship is off the charts here. Very creative.
The dynamics these guys bring is insane. Every member is musically brilliant!
What a promise! On the announced European tour we want to see classical musicians with the band on stage. No recorded tapes.
Hace poco descrubri Leprous, es absolutamente fantastico!.
Holy hell I don't even know where to start, being heavy without being stereotypically heavy. This song is insane.
