This is how modern melodic death metal SHOULD sound like! Seriously, this year has been great for MDM releases! Allegaeon, Starkill, Scar Symmetry, (arguably) Darkest Hour, and soon we'll get another great release by MPE. GREAT year for MDM!
That's the best MDM I've heard in recent years. At The Gates, In Flames, Soilwork - not even close. MPE are fucking killing it! No fancy stuff of pseudo-art shit. Just some guys playing their fucking instruments like hell. Wow, can't wait for the new album now!
Mathias Braun Did you even hear it? Lol, dude, i bet you didn't even listened to Living Infinite. Spectrum of Eternity is metalcore? Then you really must listen more to metalcore, because your genre detector is working bad.
By the burning of my candle in the night I lie awake And try to drown my bitter thoughts, as my memories, I forsake They warp their vines around my neck, my blinded eyes now see The cold dead eyes of those I've killed staring back, staring back at me As the ember of my candle fades into the light My mind awakens in the dark and plagues the morning night I feel my life forsake me for at my hand they fell And now they've come to take me, and leave me in this hell And now they've come to take me, and leave me in this hell The dead are watching me, I can't forget The horrors of what I've seen plagued with regret Their bodies lying in the snow, the memory haunts me But I can't, can't let them go, can't let them go I burn in the torment of what I have done And look at the monster that I have become Haunted by voices, forever in me I'm never alone, but never I'm free I burn in the torment of what I have done And look at the monster that I have become Haunted by voices, forever in me I'm never alone, but never I'm free The dead are watching me, I can't forget The horrors of what I've seen plagued with regret Their bodies lying in the snow, the memory haunts me But I can't, can't let them go, can't let them go I burn in the torment of what I have done And look at the monster that I have become Haunted by voices, forever in me I'm never alone, but never I'm free I burn in the torment of what I have done And look at the monster that I have become Haunted by voices, forever in me I'm never alone, but never I'm free
here i am with my 5 year old son, spending quality time and bonding over a Mors Principium Est video on youtube. I dont know if he likes the song or if the poor kid is just going with it.
There is a sense of EPICNESS, of something incredible important is at stake, that is the sense I get when I hear most of MPE music. I was so glad them came back after a long hiatus. THe WOrld Needs MPE!!! Another Great Song!
@@Jumikko 🙂 They did a study about it. Here's an article about the study if you're interested: www.metalinjection.net/latest-news/metal-science/science-proves-metal-fans-and-classical-fans-are-identical-personality-wise
When Jori Haukio left after Liberation=Termination I was afraid MPE would disband, since he was such a huge part of the songwriting in the first three albums, at the very least I was doubtful they could keep on making the same quality of music they had done until then; then they had some trouble finding guitar players, and things seemed even more dire for the band. It was such a shame having such an amazing, unique, criminally underrated band disappear because of issues it shouldn't have, but now I'm really, REALLY, glad to see they kept on going, made ...And Death Said Live, one of the best MDM albums I've ever heard, and now this one, which is absolutely amazing as well. Now finally they've made a long overdue but well deserved video after so many years, and things seem to be looking up for the band. Got the chills when I first saw this, then got excited like a little girl before starting to bang my head like a maniac while listening this for 20 times in a row. Fucking amazing, fucking love these guys.
Mohammad M From US to Russia to Brazil they actually are loved around the world, albeit not as much as well-known bands but there you go. Look on their Facebook page and you'll see people of all different nationalities.
In Flames was my favourite band until I discovered you way back in 2008, coincidentally with their transition to Pop Metal. I'm very glad that you continue throwing out so good stuff.
@@henrywalton5967 They fell off the goddamm map every since Jesper departed. There is not one relevant song they've produced since then. So no, they did NOT "carry the torch"; they actually extinguished every last semblance of a flicker that might have remained. That band is DEAD ☠
@@jonron3006 He is referring to Mors although I do agree with your opinion on In Flames not coming up with something noteworthy in the last few years imho they just don't cut it anymore...
"And Death Said Live" lacks some elements of their older albums that I like but now MPE is back in their roots. Such a great song! Their upcoming album will be strong candidate for album of the year award. btw I feel very fortunate that I've seen MPE playing live 5 or 6 times. They have never made that many gigs or tours but I happen to live in Pori (MPE's hometown). Hoping more gigs in the near future.
I like how they look like they are still playing in their garage lol. Like it feels like they were just walking around town, and one of them just goes "oh this looks like a great place to shoot a video" as they all high five in agreement staring at the abandoned warehouse xD
The only band which meanwhile surpassed Kalmah is MPE for me. They showcased it again with this incredible song. I can't wait for the album to come out!!
This stuff is really fantastic but let's get back to you , Andy, with MPE. I'm so sorry you guys broke up because you really had something special. This is 99% perfect but MPE with you Andy, was 100%. But I understand relationships end!! I'm very happy I was able to see MPE when they came to Chicago for the very first time. Looking forward to seeing you again live. Cool vocals.
One of the bester MDM band! Perfect music, perfect lyrics... I love you, guys!!! Amazing!!! This song from bester your album! My phone and PC erased to the holes from your music!!! One thousand thanks to you for your creation!!! You are the best of the best of the best!!!!
It was about 7 years since I've ordered an album I ordered the last album and will order this one too, cause these guys do not disappoint. Same goes with Insomnium.
Most bands will sell themselves as saying 'We don't really conform to a genre, we're unique f blah blah', for this it's easy guys = 'pure F metal musicianship and writing'; the harmonies from the guitars (and I'm not talking about the solos, they're great too but not what I'm referring to here) - the timing (and power) of the drumming and having a vocalist who can shine not only with his power (at ease I might f say), but his patterns and placement, nothing short of perfection. There truly is something wrong with this world when I see millions of hits on videos of humans acting like a$$es and yet something like this is uploaded for the world to enjoy. I've been doing vocals for over a decade now and I always practice along to a playlist when I do so. You guys made me do something I haven't done in years, simply sit back, listen and give respect. I've learn't the vocals and patterns and every time I play the track to practice to, I cannot help but shut up and listen and enjoy.
![Mors Principium Est - Monster In Me [Reaction/Review]](/img/1.gif)
Still phenomenal in 2024
The joys of discovering a great band that's been at it for a long time is that there's so much to listen to.
This stuff is fantastic.
Haha it's amazing! I recently found these guys and Ive got to say, already one of my favorites!
+BrutalExoticsTV Same here!
Wish I had known about them sooner.
+Woupsme Thank you, gonna take a look :)
+Vold Hooker
This band's dark sound and speed makes them one of my favorite melodeath bands and a loyal jogging companion. They're awesome.
the unborn is one of the best albums in history imo..
Mors Principium Est, Be'lakor, Omnium Gatherum, In Mourning.... So many awesome underrated bands!
dude you know whats going on!!!!
Check out Path of Destiny from Germany ;)
Oh my f*ucking god.... Thnx guys!
Maybe give Parasite Inc. A try too!
Be'Lakor is my top band ever. Insomnium, Shade Empire.... Great stuff indeed!
And Finland delivers a headshot once again, simply awesome band!
Andy Gillion fucking rules
A music video that focuses only on the artists playing a monster jam. What a gem. The music industry needs more of this.
This song is .....fucking....phenomenal.
Hands down, favorite song on the album
What are your favorite songs by MPE?
Top 15 or top 10 if you don't mind🙏
This is how modern melodic death metal SHOULD sound like! Seriously, this year has been great for MDM releases! Allegaeon, Starkill, Scar Symmetry, (arguably) Darkest Hour, and soon we'll get another great release by MPE. GREAT year for MDM!

In Flames and Soilwork became mainstream by changing their style
Mathias Braun Well, latest Soilwork was absolutely amazing album, very different from their commercial shit they've released before.
kordax mint
"absolutely amazing"? Are you serious? This is fucking Metalcore!
Mathias Braun Did you even hear it?
Lol, dude, i bet you didn't even listened to Living Infinite.
Spectrum of Eternity is metalcore? Then you really must listen more to metalcore, because your genre detector is working bad.
kordax mint no, I didn't listen to the whole album because it sounds shitty to me and I was not saying everything is Metalcore
I really don't understand, how did they manage to find their own unique sound inside the mdm O_o Awesome!
They are pioneers of the underground
damn this needs more views
My favorite Melodeath band !!!
Come to Brazil !!!
Great band, why are they not famous?!
Not so many introverts maybe or people prefer vocal music
It's in general difficult to get famous as a death metal band I'd say. Also there are a lot of great dm bands out there.
My personal fav melodeath band for sure
in melodeath scene they are famous , most melodeath fans know their newest album seven
My best band !
Oh, Andy Gillion, the mastermind behind this :)
This band blows my mind everytime...
Killer song! LmL
By the burning of my candle in the night I lie awake
And try to drown my bitter thoughts, as my memories, I forsake
They warp their vines around my neck, my blinded eyes now see
The cold dead eyes of those I've killed staring back, staring back at me
As the ember of my candle fades into the light
My mind awakens in the dark and plagues the morning night
I feel my life forsake me for at my hand they fell
And now they've come to take me, and leave me in this hell
And now they've come to take me, and leave me in this hell
The dead are watching me, I can't forget
The horrors of what I've seen plagued with regret
Their bodies lying in the snow, the memory haunts me
But I can't, can't let them go, can't let them go
I burn in the torment of what I have done
And look at the monster that I have become
Haunted by voices, forever in me
I'm never alone, but never I'm free
I burn in the torment of what I have done
And look at the monster that I have become
Haunted by voices, forever in me
I'm never alone, but never I'm free
The dead are watching me, I can't forget
The horrors of what I've seen plagued with regret
Their bodies lying in the snow, the memory haunts me
But I can't, can't let them go, can't let them go
I burn in the torment of what I have done
And look at the monster that I have become
Haunted by voices, forever in me
I'm never alone, but never I'm free
I burn in the torment of what I have done
And look at the monster that I have become
Haunted by voices, forever in me
I'm never alone, but never I'm free
The drummer is a beast.
I went to a Carach Angren concert along with these guys and Wolfheart yesterday and they were fucking cool! Such a great band. 🤘
here i am with my 5 year old son, spending quality time and bonding over a Mors Principium Est video on youtube. I dont know if he likes the song or if the poor kid is just going with it.
Andy's solo melt my face
this band has been one of my top favorite melodic dm band since their first release. keep on going!!! PERKELE!!!
Am I the only one that realizes that he sounds like Petri from Norther?? Love it great video, great drummer!!
I was thinking more on the lines of the singer from "The Absence"
За последнее время лучшая группа, что я слышал, а слышал я до хера чего. БРАВО!!!!
Поддерживаю! В последнее время из качественного метала только они и еще, может, пару банд
Nagyon nagyon jó már vagy 10-szer vissza hallgattam.Nalam bent van a metál klasszikusok között.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
By far one of my favourite bands. \m/
Melodic DM at its finest about.Days of gothenburg gone but MPE carries the flag and shows how the stuff is done.
There is a sense of EPICNESS, of something incredible important is at stake, that is the sense I get when I hear most of MPE music. I was so glad them came back after a long hiatus. THe WOrld Needs MPE!!! Another Great Song!
Been one of my top five for a while now.
My passion is classical music...
Some of you might get it how easy it is to come from Wagner to this....
Pure perfection....
I get it. Metal and classical are very closely linked.
I salute you!

Excellent guitar skills this ist true Metal !!!
I can’t believe there are guitarists out there who don’t play on a Flying V.
Best melodic death metal album in 2014
just brilliant.Finns know so much about making good metal!
Out of the world .
Recently discovered these guys, so glad I did. I can definitely hear some influence from "The Absence" in they're playing
Mors Principium Est should have a DVD ! or a good recording from a live sesion, one of my favorite bands lml
Moooors ftw. This band is really underrated... This is one of the good true original melodic metal. I hope ppl would listen more to this great band
its actually highly regarded among the melodic death metal community, among in flames and insomnium etc. check out /r/melodicdeathmetal for example :)
+Another Amorphis Fan Bro. maybe in Europe but not globally. anyway thanks for the link I will check it out
Mohammad M
From US to Russia to Brazil they actually are loved around the world, albeit not as much as well-known bands but there you go. Look on their Facebook page and you'll see people of all different nationalities.
please never stop making music...this is awesome amazing and fucking metal
If this guys were promoted since the beginning, they would be metal giants by now!
Such a shame a lot of people dont know their music.
I just discovered this band,,because i seen Andy Gillion in there
yeas, after X years they finally made a video
i know dude, many years waiting
Their original label must have really sucked when it comes to promo, listenable records I mean.
i knew who the guitarist was before i ever knew about the band because of that beautiful daemoness haha, sick song!
What makes the Finns so God damn talented ?
maybe winter?) like in the clip KALMAH - 12 Gauge =)
culture
I think i just die and reborn... what a awesome tune
モルスは1stから聞いてるけどホント氷山みたいな凍てついたリフに輝くメロディーセンス、今も昔も変わらず最高だな！また池袋来てくれよ！
Still listening to it in 2021!
Профессионально !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
one of the top MDM albums of the year!!! I feel sorry for the short-haired guitarist though :p
In Flames was my favourite band until I discovered you way back in 2008, coincidentally with their transition to Pop Metal. I'm very glad that you continue throwing out so good stuff.

Well it's official, this is the best song ever
Not only they have a killer band but a great sense of humor! Goes a long way.
Got the album this morning and I've been playing it at work pretty much all day. Absolutely fantastic from start to finish!!
They're back to roots !! This song reminds me of their first album !!
"And Death Said Live" lacks some elements of their older albums that I like but now MPE is back in their roots. Such a great song! Their upcoming album will be strong candidate for album of the year award.

Altered State of Consciousness... good memories! ;)
Andy Gillion fucking shreds. hell glad he joined the band.
first time hearing this band... had the biggest eargasm since i heard Septic Flesh's new album...
Pure talent. the guitarists are beast
These guys without question have a PhD in Melo~metal~
I like how they look like they are still playing in their garage lol. Like it feels like they were just walking around town, and one of them just goes "oh this looks like a great place to shoot a video" as they all high five in agreement staring at the abandoned warehouse xD
i can feel something from this. im glad
Gotta listen to this everyday. Cheers!
This is my favorite Melodic Death Metal band lml
I hear these guys from inhumanity, never disappoint.
Into Illusion
Into Illusion was a killer song IMO, and I can't get over Lost Beyond Retrieval, from "Liberation = Termination"
SuperIby The best instrumental i ever hear!!!
Edgcraft08 Finality (L=T) and Last Apprentice (Inhumanity) too... just to mention a few of my favourites :)
Life in black... fckn awesome
Точно Монстр!Super!
RÉSISTANCE ON EST LAAAA
Theses guy are one my favorites
MPE has its own style you are the best. we found the succeseur of the unborn
The only band which meanwhile surpassed Kalmah is MPE for me. They showcased it again with this incredible song. I can't wait for the album to come out!!
in my opinion the best of its musical genre. Awesome. Band. 100% powerful
This stuff is really fantastic but let's get back to you , Andy, with MPE.

But I understand relationships end!! I'm very happy I was able to see MPE when they came to Chicago for the very first time. Looking forward to seeing you again live. Cool vocals.
Best MDM band so far.
As Andy Gillion joined them, they have become a second life!
I'm partial to Amon Amarth, but this is pretty good stuff.
Masterful.
Как же Вы радует, спасибо!!!
One of the bester MDM band! Perfect music, perfect lyrics... I love you, guys!!! Amazing!!! This song from bester your album! My phone and PC erased to the holes from your music!!! One thousand thanks to you for your creation!!! You are the best of the best of the best!!!!

Résistance is here !!!!
It was about 7 years since I've ordered an album I ordered the last album and will order this one too, cause these guys do not disappoint. Same goes with Insomnium.
Holy shit! I totally forgot about this band. Glad to see they're still killing it!
these guys are legend!

This album is by far their best, live this shit!
lets continue in this style, children of bodom after you
0:50 oh my that bit is so amazing
wow.just wow,these guys are incredible!!!
these guys never dissapoint.
\m/.
Just trying to sit somewhat calmly in my chair while studying and at the same time listening to this album. Actually, I'm losing this fight. :D
These guys are so underrated
Hyper lourd (merci Bibix)
You guys might just be the most consistent band. LOVE this.
Cheers from Brazil
This would have been even more perfect with a Sidekick or similar mike on the bass drum. That fretwork on the lead guitar... oh man.
This album kicks asses, it's better than the previous one. The song is amazing and the guitar riff is excellent, better than ever.
In my view top mdm album 2014.
Man Andy is a good lookin dude!
Awesome band. New members, but music steel powerfull and fast. Love it.
Great song, looking forward to the rest of the new album as well. Hopefully we'll share the stage someday. Greetz ~Alex
amazing, powerful and melodic, all that I love ! keep rocking guys !
