Welcome to the official Poets of the Fall RU-vid channel!
Finnish rockers Poets of the Fall - singer Marko, guitarist Olli and keyboardist Captain - started out their musical adventure from scratch in 2003. Marko sold everything he had to invest in pursuing the love of his life, music, with his buddies Olli and Captain. He moved into his folks' basement, when he couldn't keep a place of his own any longer. The guys then built a little studio of their own in Captain's living room for the recording and producing sessions, and kept an office in Olli's beat up old car. The result of the recording sessions was a blend of pop, rock, metal and industrial sounds. Later the guys were joined by guitarist Jaska, bassist Jani and drummer Jari.
The band's first single was Late Goodbye, written for the acclaimed computer game Max Payne 2. Reaching millions of people through the game, the song earned the guys international recognition and the first prize at the G.A.N.G. Awards in 2004.
This isn't my genre. But as it is our beloved Poets & one of my fave #PotF songs I had to watch! And ya know, it's great! TY for making it & sharing it! ❤
I heard this band for the first time a few months ago in ending credits of Max Payne 2. I fell in love with Late Goodbye. I checked their last albums and I was surprised that they sound so nice for a metalhead like me. Now I more often listen to Old Gods of Asgard while playing Alan Wake 2. It's nice to see that old good Poets are still alive here.
Conceptually, the video series fully reproduces the atmosphere and meaning of the song. There are certain techniques and means for creating the appropriate mood. For example, if you remove the disturbing music from horror movies, will they be just as intense? Each song has its own music video😉
