"Somehow" (w/ lyrics) by Woods Of Desolation 

5:46 is literally the entire life flashing before your eyes, all the joy, grief, sadness, happy and bad moments going in one huge crescendo of time and space and literally enveloping your soul in this existence... it represents the limbo of letting go and trying again for the last time, the despair and hope, that constant clash of the storming thoughts in your mind, and the end is not defined, I like how it all just ends like that, and that is also how life began, like that it will also end. All is a lie nothing lasts, but memories.

this music makes you realize your not alone in this world feeling hopeless

It's so sad how much depressive metal makes me happy.

i know this is kinda strange, but iv always found this instrumental really uplifting. its like walking through a storm, in a good way

One of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard.

Am I alone crying like a little girl at 5:45? Too powerful. This is how you end an album

Fucking Australia I swear to god, just when I thought we didn't have a metal scene. Also does anyone else feel that when they are depressed/angry/upset that listening to depressing music is better than something cheerful? I felt with happier music when you're mad is akin to just pretending your emotions aren't there

I BEEN IN THE NIGHT RAISING UP THE DEAD

What a beautiful forest, i wish i was there...

5:45: Time to say goodbye... Love this record.

The end of this song is just incredible

Do not fuck with me get sum reverence

This one is destroying me...but on the other side it cheers me up every time! Again...and again, and again...somehow!

Depression for 11 years already, and yet I'm still here, alive and surviving. I'm surviving from depressiom and now that we have Covid Pandemic somehow I'm still surviving just to be alive.

Grey visions of today Every sight I the same I can not break free I think I'm gone As though I never wake Always drawn into descent And my hope decays, just out of reach Cursed through life & condemned to misery To be left with nothing... If only for a moment; a way out To see the faintest glimmer amongst the dark To mend the broken dawn so bleak Somehow I think I'm gone But like ashes to the wind i will fade Nameless and Forgotten The thorn upon the withered rose Somehow I always knew...

I've been having that moment the last couple of weeks when you stumble across an incredible band you had never heard of before, all the while they were in your own backyard, and you realise how much you have missed out on and the catching up you need to do. This band.. wow.

Word cant express how much I love this song

i been in the night risin up the dead

HAUUUUUUGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I can not break free... from addiction. I think I'm gone..

Raise A Mug of Ale for each gone Brother & Sister that didnt make it throught this shit Life... Skøl 🍺💀🤘🏻 🕯️💀🖤💀🕯️

This song is a constant reminder of how I used to feel...

Seriously this song is awesome. I got to know it just two weeks ago, when someone requested it on Sort Søndag, a national metal radio show in Denmark, Now I've spread the word far and wide.

The clean vocals are pretty reminiscent of John Haughms vocals from Agalloch. Also, that crescendo at the end is amazing.

most beautiful thing i've ever heard

Очень нравится эта группа!Люблю полное одиночество, холод, мрак, ледяной ноябрьский дождь и dsbm музыку.

One of the best songs I've ever heard. 3:30 have me in tears everytime

SEMATARYYYYY

5:47 the climax of hope and hopelessness. D always shines some light on the shittiest of situations and helped me get through a lot of shit,.

This song always reminds me of a dead friend. Everytime I listen to this song he comes through the "somehow I always knew" sentence. Seems like he really always knew and one day found a key to a way out in a shape of a bullet. Well, my friend, this is not a music you've been listening to but it characterizes you. And every rakia is in your name! ...somehow we all know but realize too late...

Woods of Desolation mix atmospheric metal and dsbm, makes the most mesmerizing pieces i’ve ever heard. Definitely my favorite metal band and this song is my one of my tops

I'm really fond of the part that starts at 2:13 and lasts for about a minute and a half, one of the best things in DSBM.

im on the rainbow briiidge

Tears every time. Sometimes Happy. Sometimes Sad. But usually a combination of both. A rarity in this genre. I love Australia 🤘

The most amazing scream in metal.

this is emotional metal! addicted to that melody and tremolo picked riff!

2012-2013 the best era of DSBM. hope we will meet one-day depressed souls. same song but I'm sober here. that's only my achievement Thank you.

So much emotion and compassion.. This is exactly why I make music.

The fact that the 1:10 section is so short is almost criminal. Might be my favorite DSBM riff ever.

Cursed through life........hits straight into the core of heart.

YOUU KNOOOOWWWWW YOU KNOOOOWW

This song describes me perfectly

Oh man the passion in the music makes feel alive for a couple of minutes

Love of my life just left me... So typical yet so enourmously destructive...

This band and song simply makes my imagination flying ... how powerful is this metal genre where my hard feelings get better every time I listen to it and remember all I want...Hails headbangers from Perú!

Clearly one of the most beautiful BM song I've ever heard, love it!

5:46 This is the apex of music atmosphere. Sound just like a phoenix burning itself just to born again.

Perfect time of year for this band!

HAUUUUUUUUUUGGHHH

Un chef d'oeuvre ...

after 8 years i end up again to this song and the same shit in my life as always damn

This shit remains my favorite. Thick and thin. It connects real deep y'know? Hits you deep in. Before it ends you got attacked by onion ninjas and have to wipe your eyes. Never heard a song that just straight up grabs your soul and holds onto it. Its a shame D hasn't made any new music. He's clearly talented and been through some shit. Shit sounds completely hopeful despite your emotions already running high with the sadness of it.

I have finally found my ultimate song. :)

8 years ago I listened this song and that was a every hearing one but I didn't even commented, it shows me how deep I was in that uncoloured sea.

and so i hear it again and again but now i understand ... this is not a hommage for suicide... this is a hommage for life

It's like a beautiful dream man once the song ends you get sad again but here at least i can repeat it as much as I want thank you woods of desolation

I been up at night raisin up the dead

Just overcome... Remember, we are and we do(act, feel) just right now. So i try to make my present count, cause tomorrow... we don't know.

Thanks for this! This is my favorite video now. You did a great job.

Rest in Peace, Gunnar. I loved you like a brother. I will carry this burden like a cross and honor your memory by living the best life I can. Thank you for giving me the strength and will to carry on. You wouldn't believe all the support that has been poured out by all of those that cared for you. Until our next meeting old friend.

I have to thank A GIRL if I've listened to this beautiful song. Didn't know woods of desolation but now...my god! THANKS AGAIN!

I will always keep this song in my back pocket.. incredible band and amazing song

haughhhh

Wow !! Nice video!! I'm starting to know this kind of music and ... really deep and beautiful for my soul!!

The empty world! This empty life This beautiful forest! This dreadful emptiness! Oh !!! I think I'm gone!!

I absolutely love this.

Alguien en España está enamorado de esta canción como yo til the end. My funeral song

Uma das melhores músicas já feita na história, ta maluco, o peso emocional desse som é indescritível

Это Божественно ,это лучшне что слышали мои уши за всю историю музыки ....,ничего себе

The power. Of the dark .and melancholy . Greeting from argentine.... LAS MALVINAS SON ARGENTINAS CARAJO !!!!

Resonating with every second of the song.

This song hit me hard.. Definitely a new fav.

This is absolutely amazing

Sematarrry

Always amazed how the music sounds so triumphant whilst the lyrics express hopelessness and despair. Such a powerful juxtaposition. Its a disservice to try to label this; DS Black metal, Shoegaze...this is beyond labels

5:45... Just like every shattered memories you want to forget are strobing in front of your eyes in the forest at night, then you wake up at the morning in some new place, without all these damn nostalgic visions once for all

My best friend es dead but always I remember him with this song😢

the most sentimental atmospheric black metal ...beside Annorkoth - You're my only dream

do not fuck with me get some reverenceeeeeeeee

Love those clean vocals in the beginning.

Excelente música y sublimes imágenes....

i love how this sounds like something you could put in the backgrounds of a teenie breakup scene, but it's kinda black metal. i'm not kidding.

One of my favorite DSBM song🤘🏻

genius riffing, so sad

Epic song as always...it hurts

From Mayham to darkthrone to deafheaven to world under blood go to woods from suicide

Greta music video with its song of course, I had the same adventures somehow that night, but I wish i could get in the place of this video.

adoro esta música gostaria de poder baixar novamente o vídeo e áudio pra ouvir sempre

Beautiful....

I just fucking love in shoegazy songs when you have the huge riff after the end of a verse like 1:10

The saddest song ever...

Beautiful.

Love this band so damn much

the sax part is awesome!

this is so beautiful♥

Who knows more songs like this ? without screaming ... but kind of motivational-psychodelic-doom.

Great stuff!

Beautiful and Dark!!!

Miss this band

awesome song from awesome band \m/
