I never heard of this band until now, but I really enjoyed this song so I'll probably check out more of them. Is it just me, or does it seem like a shit ton of good symphonic metal bands go unrecognized.
Lyrics Million days and nights before When only tarpans ruled this world Our nomad fathers took it in their hands Warm from coddling sun by day Cooled by sea breezing by nights It is loved so hard that our heart just lights No one can take our land from us, it is our home And no one can decide for us, leave us all alone We will hold arms to death until the last of us stands still We will destroy and crush all foes, we'll shout 'Alğa!' and kill! Violet lilacs fill the woods Meadows full of grass an fruits Mountain peaks of limestone pierce the blue-blue sky Stormy waves crash on the rocks Grapes entwine the antic scree How can one not love this land of sun and sea? No one can take our land from us, it is our home And no one can decide for us, leave us all alone We will hold arms to death until the last of us stands still We will destroy and crush all foes, we'll shout 'Alğa!' and kill! How dare you godless bastards step on my land? How dare you touch my daughters and sons? This will be your last steps, unless you turn Put your two-headed eagle in your arse and run! No one can take our land from us, it is our home And no one can decide for us, leave us all alone We will hold arms to death until the last of us stands still We will destroy and crush all foes, we'll shout 'Alğa!' and kill!
IGNEA, Modern Ukranian band that plays Oriental Metal releases debut video “Alga” with a Full Symphonic Orchestra. IGNEA formed in 2011 under the name Parallax, their debut EP was named Sputnik and most of the songs are about space. IGNEA has changed its sound a lot and become heavier metal and uses growls, authentic middle eastern melodies, which is common for the oriental metal genre, the music will keep the melodic fundamentals and the OST feeling. In Autumn of 2015, the song and video “Alga” which is named after a war call of Crimean Tatar people. This song is contributed to Crimeans, who are defending their land. The show was opened in the Orphaned Land, fathers of oriental metal, in Kiev, Ukraine. February 16, IGNEA released its first full length album called “The Sign of Faith,” which the purpose of this album is to advocate peace and to say “there is reasonable explaination to kill other people.” “Alga” Rocks and so does IGNEA! Great \m/!!🤘🏻😎🎸-Moderator-🎸😎🤘🏻
Уже рекомендовал их как-то уже в паблике. Ребята просто божественны! Даже непривычно как-то осознавать, что такое смогло появиться на постсоветском пространстве. Неужели снова стали рождаться таланты? В - Восторг!
How could you down vote this???? The lead singers voice is absolutely mesmerizing. The orchestra with the metal is just fantastic, just mind blowingly beautiful.
well you can just add a big fan! So many bands in this genre but you guy's naild it! all the music that combined in an amzing sound even i hear this song 15times a day, it never gets bored. Im really curious and begging for more!
So experimental, and it worked!!! Will share the shit out of this. Usually symphonic metal bands sound so cheesy but this is exceptional! Well the fuck done💀💀💀
In the words of Beavis and Butthead Do America, "this is the most incredible thing I have ever seen." But seriously, it is. Like a modern, more badass Moody Blues(whom I love very much as well) Seriously amazing...
What a great combination of Orchestra and metal, reminds me of Epica, I can listen to this all day and never get tired of it, definitely will look for the album. I need to find more bands like this. Any recommendations You Tube viewers?
