All That Remains
2971603072_02e6eb7187_o.jpg

All That Remains Official Website

Going way back to when I was only starting to get into music, All That Remains and Shadows Fall were the beginning of my experimentation on metal music. Mainly the idea was to listen to it and have a laugh at weird people thinking they were cool by playing Death Metal, ect
All I can say is, when I listened to them ... I laughed and began headbanging like an idiot.

Then they grew on me.
I enjoyed the semi-sporadic drumming, the melodic guitars, the changing pace, the alternating vocals and the entanglement of all instruments and vocals to create a complex yet entertaining piece of music.

Whether I'm being entranced by the drums, being taken on a journey by the guitars, trying to understand the lyrics and meaning of the song or singing out the parts that I do know,,, I thoroughly enjoy these guys and will continue to do so :grinthumb

Out of their 6 studio albums, I ashamedly only have one (Fall Of Ideals).
Studio albums are:
2002 ~ Behind Silence And Solitude
2004 ~ This Darkened Heart
2006 ~ Fall Of Ideals
2008 ~ Overcome
2010 ~ For We Are Many
2012 ~ A War You Cannot Win

Apart from that, Fall Of Ideals is a simply amazing album and has kept me very entertained over the years.

This Darkened Heart:



Fall Of Ideals:

For We Are Many:

Re: All That Remains

I almost picked up a couple discs at the used place, but it's better I preview them.

Re: All That Remains

Hell yeah, All That Remains is incredible. They don't get the recognition they deserve, they're extremely talented.

I mean, just listen to that scream at the beginning of This Calling

Always, every time, gives me shivers through my body
:bow:
This Calling is a powerful song, one of my favourites from these guys.
Lyrics:
I secretly crave, crave that scent again
Still feel it pressing on me now
Now with the onset, my flesh is weakening
I steel my nerves for temptations at hand again

[Chorus:]
And I hear this calling still you don't seem so far at all
And I hear this calling

No secrets, deception for these would tear this down
I'll note the past spare the pain
Words match my deeds with brutal honesty
Never forget these choices were made by me

And I hear this calling still you don't seem so far at all
And I hear this calling out

Not falling victim to the fire that burns inside of me
Though I am fearful I will not prevent this tragedy
My strength's been tested I wear the scars that prove
Still I believe that this calling will see me through

And I hear this calling still you don't seem so far at all
And I hear this calling out

My strength's been tested I wear the scars that prove
Still I believe that this calling will see me through.
