    I bet they all were lounging around in the recording studio, and Johannes was like:
    "So, guys, what challenge should we try for the upcoming album? Any ideas?"
    Kungen, playing with a little paper crown: "Why don't we make a whole fucking album about how awesome I am?"
    Tim: "Hold my beer..."

    I keep thinking of that old interview where Johannes revealed that he was nervous to ever do clean vocals and thought his were super weak.
    These guys can do anything together. It's super inspiring.

    I love to read the comments that expect any kind of style consistency from Avatar. I hope that the next album after this one is a ska album

    • @albertusdenkers5077
      @albertusdenkers5077 7 лет назад +3

    • @cmr2153
      @cmr2153 7 лет назад +4

      yeah many ppl don't seem to get what Avatar themselves stated often enough: they are always changing their style.
      Ska-metal stuff would be bloody awesome tho. I mean on FnF they did abit of a death-country tune with black waters.
      Or the death-country and drop-of-hawaiian mixup they did with use your tongue.

    I hear a lot of 80's classic metal in this and I love it.

    • @Kevin_TN
      @Kevin_TN 7 лет назад +1

      That's the reason I don't really like the songs that have come out so far for this album. lol

    • @sabastiantyler2391
      @sabastiantyler2391 7 лет назад +3

      Kevin I love it all, what ever they want to do I'm down for it. I hear a lot of influences that went into this, I even hear A little bit of the softer Black Sabbath sounds in my opinion, I hear classic 80's all over this. I don't see anything wrong in dabbling in classic it's better than dabbling in mainstream. This song by far is the most different, but different is not bad. You don't want to keep making the same tune over and over Not even Alice Cooper did that especially with his new album, I only heard some short clips of the songs but I like them.

    • @Kevin_TN
      @Kevin_TN 7 лет назад

      Nobody said they had to make it all the same. I like the majority of their songs on the last 3 albums. Didn't really care for the first album. Some of their lighter songs like Tower and Sky Burial are my favorites. I just don't like the 80's metal/Iron Maiden type music.

    • @sabastiantyler2391
      @sabastiantyler2391 7 лет назад +3

      Kevin I do, I just dislike when people are so quick to be like they need to go back to their roots, they themselves have said they don't consider themselves a certain genre. It's the comments that I keep seeing, but I wasn't going to not reply when someone comments me. Just my opinion not trying to fight, but if you dislike it I don't I love it.

      They didn't really change it, they just mixed their current sound with their old sound from the album's before Hail the Apocalypse.

    • @Hades_666

    Avatar are one of those bands where I don't always like their new stuff at first listen, but from the second listen on I love it. And for people who are saying that they don't like how much thy changed their sound, Avatar are one of the most experimental metal bands of the 21st century. They started as a melodeath band with their first three albums but starting with Black Waltz onward they have had no specific sound.

    I LOVE the sound of this! I discovered avatar randomly and the first song I hear was the eagle has landed and I instantly loved the band. Is so unique to see a band experiment like avatar and I think they do an amazing job at it

    Soft or not as long as time does sick solos this will be heavy as sh*t. Can't wait for the album 🤘🏼

    I think its important not to just listen to the song as a track but with the album concept in mind too. I'm really looking forward to the album based off of this and ASOTK
