I was lucky enough to see them live a couple of times before they disbanded. I'm in my mid 60's and, at one of their shows, there was a woman older than me sitting beside me. I asked why she was here and she pointed at John Haughm, the lead vocalist and said "That's my son". Precious moment.

"The White" EP is my favourite Agalloch album... It features some of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written in the history of mankind. Not even kidding...

@billvrabel1502 2 года назад

The Mantle is one of my favorite albums of all time. To me, this track is amazing, but it's just the beginning of an album of amazing compositions. They drew upon many influences from psychedelic and prog rock to doom metal, post-punk and neofolk. Their name is pronounced Aga-lock, by the way.

@TheCrimsonOne508 5 месяцев назад

This album quite literally saved my life. It’s my favorite album by far. Every song is a masterpiece and it leaves you emotionally drained by the end

@TheRealJoeNathan 2 года назад

This is my favorite song of all time. I was blown away the first time I heard it, and it's one of the few songs that give me that same feeling of awe years later. The Mantle is one of my favorite albums of all time too. I think of Agalloch as a post-metal band (they might repeat a riff or motif for a few minutes, but then develop it by adding new guitar parts and melodies), but they have some folk elements and atmospheric black metal in there too.

@henriquefolc 2 года назад

@marrow226 2 года назад

For anyone who doesn't know, the band's name is pronounced with a "ck" sound at the end, like "Loch Ness." I didn't know until someone told me. Tell your neighbors. If there's one thing the world must know, it's how to pronounce Agalloch

@Breadcups 2 года назад

Also have to say, the correct pronunciation of Loch isn't a ck like "lock", it's softer and rolls off the roof of the mouth rather than clicking. It's a distinction my Scottish pals have taught me when I got it wrong.

@Breadcups 2 года назад

@@marrow226 honestly not sure how Agalloch is pronounced, I imagine it's a soft ck. They should reform so when they say "We are Agalloch from..." When playing live we'd know for sure 😂

Beautiful song! If you dig back into Opeth's catalog the first two albums also feature a lot of this sort of acoustic black-metal style. Try the songs The Night and the Sighlent Water, The Apostle in Triumph, Black Rose Immortal, and To Bid You Farewell.

@Tommydis 2 года назад

Back in the day, The Night and the Silent Water was my favourite Opeth track, but then I heard an interview with Mikael Akerfeldt after blackwater was released, were he said it was he least favourite tune. it broke my heart. That being said you are totally right about the sound comparison.

@Natsirt666 2 года назад

@@Tommydis It's his "least favourite" i think because it was written about his dying grandfather, and brings back too many bittersweet memories (much like Tool/Maynard and Wings For Marie). I was lucky enough to see them perform it in concert once though. It was truly amazing.

Nice! I was just thinking it's that time of year to binge some Agalloch albums and drink dark beer. I agree with others that Limbs and Falling Snow should be next for Agalloch. I also think they should be heard back to back as they are on the album. They just transition so well and complement each other. I can't listen to one without the other, but that'd be a 20 minute session.

Positively surprised to see this track on your channel. Ever tried Maudlin of the Well or Kayo Dot? Unique approach to music, pushing the art to its limits and boundaries, especially the latter iteration of the band. The Manifold Curiosity by Kayo Dot always blows my mind, I'm curious to see what would be your reaction listening to such a composition.

@fredygarcia2733 2 года назад

Great choices. Maudlin’s albums are positively life changing.

@garytill 2 года назад

The Manifold Curiosity is a masterpiece from Choirs of the Eye. skipping over to later Kayo Dot, plenty of amazing tracks on Hubardo, Coffins on Io, Plastic House, Blasphemy and the latest singles from the upcoming album, particularly Void in Virgo.

@williamkoscielniak7871 2 года назад

I can't believe it! I can't believe it! I can't believe it! I NEVER thought you'd check this song out. WOW! The first time I heard this composition nearly 20 years ago it just sucked me in its world of magic and never let go. Few compositions are truly transcendent to me. This is one of them. Orion by Metallica and Echoes by Pink Floyd are two others.

@Enochulator 2 года назад

For a similar line: Wolves in the Throne Room - I Will Lay Down My Bones Among the Rocks and Stones. Their latest release is also great - Mountain Magick, for instance. WITTR is a little heavier than Agalloch, maybe… but same thing, Pacific Northwest Black Metal.

@georgehazard1986 2 года назад

YES! Got a chance to see WitTR live in like 2011 or so. At a small, literal house that had been turned into a venue. They came out in the dark in robes. Incredible live. Two Hunters is one of my tip top favorites. Them and Agalloch are absolute tops.

Although I like their earlier stuff, I feel Woods of Ypres found a much more refined sound with later albums, such as Woods IV or V.

Something like "Adora vivos" or the classic "I Was Buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery".

What I like the most about these videos is that they point my attention to elements that I didn't necessarily notice before, or that I enjoyed as part of the composition and never focused with as an individual part. This makes me experience the songs in a totally different way, when I can notice the small guitar details and notes or focus with the bass guitar, the right/ left placement of some sounds etc... It upgrades the songs to a higher level when you're able to hear and enjoy all those details!
