It brings me such joy to look in the comments and see that others listened to and discovered Dark Moor in highschool! You are guys are so unbelievably awesome ♡ I would have discovered them in 2004, and this may have been the very first song of theirs I heard. It's certainly remained a favourite, if my not my top one ♡ Oh! Just wanted to edit this comment to say, to any fans of the original singer Elisa Martin and two other members that were there from the beginning too; please check out their band Dreamaker :) It's wonderful ♡
You don't lie, you don't fight Don't people see the light you don't gaze the mean face don't try to pray just to save your illusions to save your shame now your life is impregnated of blame please help me, or kill me but don't bury my soul i'm dreaming, i'm screaming full of grief i'll be condemned without mercy without a soul buy i've a nice hope [Chorus] The wind in my hair the sun under my veil i'll go though the road is hard and long thousand of questions and only one answer My anger is in the heart of stone I'm sneaking, I'm Creeping i'm needing all my faith I'm sinning i'm learning full of grief i'll be condemned without mercy without a soul buy i've a nice hope [Chorus] Don't hit me, don't save me What is my destiny? I'm sighing, i'm crying full of grief i'll be condemned without mercy without a soul buy i've a nice hope [Chorus]
Well, apart from the epic music: I totally ADORE the cover artworks by Andreas Marschall. Those were, are and will always be the very best in the world of metal music!!
I'm a new lister. Never heard of this band or this song until I heard it a moment ago on Pandora. And let me say that I rarely ever have to track down a song immediately after hearing it for the first time. This was amazing. I was immediately hooked.
Martin has a great raw quality and power in her voice... perfect for this music! Much better than some of the other sometimes too-sweet sounding female fronts.
1) on the DF argument, there's no real legitimate reason to hate them. They were a gateway band for me, like a lot of people. And really, they're cool dudes making cool music. Let's all remember our true foe here. Justin Bieber. 2). on the actual SONG. These lyrics are some freaking poetry, and I love it. An awesome story of sin and punishment, and the importance of forgiving yourself. Dark Moor is great.
Asriel Dreemurr I'm not gonna lie, recent Dragonforce is much better than early Dragonforce. I honestly believe people hate them because of Guitar Hero.
yeah like honestly the entirety of inhuman rampage was :/ but there's a lot to enjoy on their more recent albums as a guitar hero streamer i both agree and disagree with that last statement, ask a head they'll say they fell in love with DF because of GH ask another head they'll say they'd be better off never hearing TTFAF as long as they live (and i'm kind of in both of these boats) also @ 2014 me what the fUCK is that "let's remember our true foe here" BS??? go do your homework we're dyin' over here
Indeed Dragonforce did make way for casual American audience to discover power metal. I am certain that Dragonforce did help pave way into making more power metal fans. However, from my experience, you have the music elitist and they hate DF and their fans because of a video game, instead of finding it on their own. I guess the haters have that sense of pride and to an extent I can see their point of view because TTFAF is the only power metal song that gets attention. Other underrated songs and other power metal bands still haven't got the recognition they deserved around that time, and so the haters probably developed that hate especially on the fans who commented saying they like it. After all, I believe they are the most popular power metal band out there still, it's like the hardcore thrashers are sick and tired of hearing Metallica all the time, in a sense. Now if I am talking about DF from a musical standpoint, people who got into them because at that time they think "Power metal" is the most unique damn thing ever, and I am not going to lie . . . DF as a whole was unique and they're not exactly what you call a traditional power metal sound either. They are still unique, just from the structure, the use of instrument (keyboard soundbank) and the Pacman noises that Herman be making (which both the keyboardists and the guitar players haven't been abusing too much lately). It really is unique but at the same time I can see that being a turn off to the hardcore metal fans, because it's not "heavy" or just the usage of the sounds just doesn't appeal to them. While as the speed, the amount of shredding and too melodic is just a minor side of the complaints. All in all, I don't really hate DF but I can appreciate what they have done and accomplished, despite not being their biggest fan or anything. When it comes to power metal I prefer bands like Galneryus, Stratovarius, Angra, Dark Moor, Rhapsody, Kamelot, Concerto Moon, Symphony X, Holy Knights and pretty much any neoclassical because that goes hand to hand with power metal.
I think I like this song because a lot of the chordage is reminiscent of Sabaton. Not enough to where it sounds like a clone, but just a hint. It sounds fucking awesome, in any case
DragonForce is usually the reason people get into power metal. If not for DragonForce, I wouldn't have found all this amazing music honestly. I very rarely listen to DragonForce any more, but if new songs come out I will listen to the songs for a week and return back to the good bands. I pay my respects to the band who introduced me to this eargasmic music genre.
hey you mentioned good bands , speaking of wich, try to search for: (Seven Angels - Unseen Truth) the first video that appears it´s an AWESOME female fronted band too
just my two cents about Dragonforce, i first heard through the fire and the flames on GH3 and it didnt resonate with me, even though i never had heard power metal then. it was crazy flailing nerdy nonsense good for a laugh. then i heard battlefield by blind guardian and THAT is what did it for me.
Been listening to this band for a while and I never do research on any band I like. Just found out today thats not a guy singing thats a woman! Wtf?! Weird voice for a woman.
On DragonForce: They're bad. Objectively bad. Their lyrics are nonsensical at best, their songs all sound the same, and half of it is sped up in the studio. I also own two DragonForce albums and listen to them regularly.
King Murdoc"I also own two DragonForce albums and listen to them regularly." I'm sorry, what was that? You listen to them frequently? Hm. Guess my reply stands with its intentions.
Lol, I'm not going to read your crap. The fact you like Dragonforce is enough for me. If you're going to be upset at least reply sooner. It's my opinion; get over it.
Que disco tan brutal, desde que comienza hasta que termina... Una obra del Power Metal
The world will be saved to this song.

This song is like a blizzard, blowing through your heart!
A real power metal masterpiece!
I love this song, remember me when I was 13 years and listing this when I go to the School in the winter , sorry for my bad English : p
I love it in 2017 too. I will love this power metal band forever. ^^
Cathreen Misery Artist is the best old power melódic metal
My heart of stone.......
You don't lie, you don't fight
Don't people see the light
you don't gaze the mean face
don't try to pray
just to save your illusions
to save your shame
now your life is impregnated of blame
please help me, or kill me
but don't bury my soul
i'm dreaming, i'm screaming
full of grief
i'll be condemned without mercy
without a soul
buy i've a nice hope
[Chorus]
The wind in my hair
the sun under my veil
i'll go though
the road is hard and long
thousand of questions
and only one answer
My anger is in the heart of stone
I'm sneaking, I'm Creeping
i'm needing all my faith
I'm sinning i'm learning
full of grief
i'll be condemned without mercy
without a soul
buy i've a nice hope
[Chorus]
Don't hit me, don't save me
What is my destiny?
I'm sighing, i'm crying
full of grief
i'll be condemned without mercy
without a soul
buy i've a nice hope
[Chorus]
良い曲。
Darkmoorの代表曲
One of their best albums IMO. I don't hate Alfred, but Elisa's voice is so awesome.
Her voice's androgynous nature is a perfect fit for fast-paced symphonic power metal.
I'll be honest I only listen to songs by Elisa :3
I simply love Elisa's vocals in this song. They fit the music so perfectly. It's a shame they lost her.
LONG LIVE METAL!
This song marked my highschool
Damn me too! When i was in highschool i was so into these kind of stuffs..darkmoor,rhapsody,myths,legends,knights... what a memory
jajajaja yeah ahuevo nowadays what are you hearing
Cozeguet17 This song WILL mark my high school once I graduate.
Same as me, my friend!
asiabrown99 i'm proud, bro |m|
0:50 highschool dxd intro
Elisa Martin Rules..YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, apart from the epic music: I totally ADORE the cover artworks by Andreas Marschall. Those were, are and will always be the very best in the world of metal music!!
Damn I was coming up with names for space ships and this came in mind, decided to google it. No regrets.
It's a shame that there aren't any album of Darkmoor with Elisa on Spotify
+Luxenor Was thinking exactly the same! It's such a shame that specifically this album isnt on spotify :(
spotify sucks!!!
I'm a new lister. Never heard of this band or this song until I heard it a moment ago on Pandora.
And let me say that I rarely ever have to track down a song immediately after hearing it for the first time. This was amazing. I was immediately hooked.
The Gates of Oblivion is on spotify now
my anger is in the heart of the stone!!!
With this track begins one of the most beautiful and amazing music albums of the whole history 😃
The lyrics are actually amazing.
I had thiz album, all the songs are amazing...
Martin has a great raw quality and power in her voice... perfect for this music! Much better than some of the other sometimes too-sweet sounding female fronts.
This is great album from power metal!! Incredible and fantastic!!lml
Sooo great album!
Uno de mis discos favoritos del amplio mundo del Power Metal! De inicio a fin es perfecto
Far out. These guys are pretty incredible.
1) on the DF argument, there's no real legitimate reason to hate them. They were a gateway band for me, like a lot of people. And really, they're cool dudes making cool music.

Waou ! super groupe j'adore !!!
Saudades de 2010 abrir meu histórico e encontrei essa maravilha
gran disco y muy buena cantante
This is amazing
Dark moor > Helloween
awesome song
I think I like this song because a lot of the chordage is reminiscent of Sabaton. Not enough to where it sounds like a clone, but just a hint. It sounds fucking awesome, in any case

Is this available anywhere for digital purchase? I don't own a CD player anymore... 😁
Great stuff!!!!
Amaizing song :)
Sounds like Star-Burns’ memorial song and I love it
ok here's how it goes
Bieber; Mortal
Dragonforce; Epic Heroes
Rhapsody; Gods
Dark Moor; RULERS OF THE FUCKING COSMOS
CUANTOS AÑOS SIN OIRLOS......... 13 PARA SER CONCRETOS
Does anyone else know any other epic, melodic, beautiful power/speed metal songs similar to this? With big emphasis on melody.
AstroShadeOfficial kingdom come by heavenly
sounds cool, but not equally as beautiful as "In The Heart Of Stone", however thank you for the tip!
This song reminds me some what of The Wheel of Time, eithet way 10/7
Why are people arguing about DF? You can say they suck all you want but the fact is they are still musicians. Please respect that
sweeeeet!
❤
can I get a 10 hour loop of just he pre-verse riff please
Where are the old dark moor!?
4:23
Love this women's vocals. now they sound like all the other power metal bands same vox...
0:28 , 1:00 , 2:01 , 3:39 - try not to headbang
LONG LIVE POWER METAL*
this song is fucking awesome
This makes me want to slay a dragon.
metal lml....
i heard this while playing skyrim lol
Same 💜
@Wesinhuman I wouldnt say best...but still pretty damn good
epico
hey you mentioned good bands , speaking of wich, try to search for:
(Seven Angels - Unseen Truth)
the first video that appears
it´s an AWESOME female fronted band too
VENGAN A PERU!!!!!!
just my two cents about Dragonforce, i first heard through the fire and the flames on GH3 and it didnt resonate with me, even though i never had heard power metal then. it was crazy flailing nerdy nonsense good for a laugh. then i heard battlefield by blind guardian and THAT is what did it for me.
i still really like dragonforce, i think they have similar sounds per album, which i think is okay :D but i like other metal bands
This is so AWESOME!!! Wow! Is it a girl singing? Or a man? Having a hard time to guess.
girl, but the voice is pretty androgynous so anyone can sing along it's great
actually, there is absolutely no difference between dark moor and rhapsody.
Dude dark moor is way better
The Elisa stuff is >>>>>> but even without her the band is still pretty great
@minion5891
point taken
Bieber: Ant...
Agreed. It just doesn't sound right without Elisa.
Well there is always some sort of start. Mine was Helloween. I like dragonforce, but they suck and i can peacefully admit it. Same with Metaliica.
Why is it bands form other country are better than the ones here in the U.S. >:(
rhapsody would have to go through chuck norris. but fear not. dark moor had their standing already. ;D
Been listening to this band for a while and I never do research on any band I like. Just found out today thats not a guy singing thats a woman! Wtf?! Weird voice for a woman.
Well,in this album and The Hall of Olden Dreams it's a woman,but it's a man from the album Dark Moor and onward.
beiber: beggar :D
@Archeon233 bieber shouldnt be in there
neither should dragonforce
Did America forget how to make good metal bands???? Yes
On DragonForce: They're bad. Objectively bad. Their lyrics are nonsensical at best, their songs all sound the same, and half of it is sped up in the studio.
I also own two DragonForce albums and listen to them regularly.
LMFAO!!! You're a Dragonforce fan?! Your opinion is nulled and void; end of discussion.
SirAthiro Reread the comment, dumbass.
King Murdoc"I also own two DragonForce albums and listen to them regularly."
I'm sorry, what was that? You listen to them frequently? Hm. Guess my reply stands with its intentions.
Lol, I'm not going to read your crap. The fact you like Dragonforce is enough for me. If you're going to be upset at least reply sooner. It's my opinion; get over it.
Really they speed half of their stuff up in the studio......Wow that is pretty shit
Dragonforce is ok, except that all their songs sound almost exactly the same. If you only listen to one, then they're good.
so he likes one band better than the other? man... the only one who sucks is you if you say that to some ones opinion
What the fuck. What about Sonata Arctica?
Ulgh... I hate the new singer, he's crap! I much prefer this girl's voice :) Sadly, the only good album this band has in my opinion.
Their album the hall of the olden dream is quite good too.
totally with you on this.
Are you kidding ,Alfred is one of the best in the genre, ,their level was just higher with the female and that is what make many prefer her.
I wonder how much that cathedral saves on security by just needing to hire the one guard?
They only need one guard.
*PROTIP:* don't fuck with that guy.
Seydaschu Having only one little winding path in helps too.
best answer ever
Probably a shite ton. Makes me itching to rob that place blind. :)
