At The Gates - Death And The Labyrinth Lyrics
Behind the curtain
Laid to ruins
Words that drift
Into oblivion
The world deforms
And as we fade
Our truth it dies
Our poetry of broken dreams
An abattoir of time
Deep in the hive of the serpent
We shed the disguises we have worn
A curtain of madmen
Death and the labyrinth
Swallowed by earth itself
With every dawn
Of hunger and thirst
The world deforms
To a pale uncertain ash
Words without sound
Fade away - as they are swallowed
Swallowed by barriers and walls
Like a swarm
Deep in the hive of the serpent
We shed the disguises we have worn
A curtain of madmen
We are the illusions we have torn
Our poetry of broken dreams
An abattoir of time
Death and the labyrinth
Swallowed by earth itself

Amazing song! I’m so glad Behemoth introduced me to At the gates. 🤘🏻
Hammer Song
244 pressed dislike because of the hat
1:12 section is killer
É enorme prazer participar do seu canal,meu forte abraço e meu mega bjs.😘
Con una anillo de Saint Vitus.
My best ever At The Gates -song: Raped By The Light Of Christ. Not easy to choose, but if have pick one. And not because or despite of the name, the song is just art.
Hey guys! If you enjoy this band be sure to check out Mors Subita's new single as well!
https://youtu.be/0Kq3fUvP_u0
i don't like the video but i love the song. The guitar works is so much inspired, magic, i can't describe with other words.
Love this song.....
\m/ At The Gates \m/
lol the comment section is filled with trolls, get a life morons, by the way this rules 8)
One of the greatest bands ever! The poor american kids will keep trying to copy the original swedish metal but the copy is and will be always a copy!
His voice like ivan scumbag from burgerkill
what the fucking vocals?
0:40 dat Saint Vitus ring
This song gives me the chills. Fucking Eargaasm!
I missed these guys so much!!! \m/
1:12 "Jizz in her eyes watch the soda burn, Michelle don't disguise it, we have WART!!"
Man this music is so good XD ;) too much talent for one band!
where am i? we are illusions....
dude, this shit is good! i cant believe they got back in the studio 19 years later and put this shit out... its seriously good... it sounds like at the gates but a little more current.
BETTER THAN SLAUGHTER OF THE SOUL.
FIGHT ME, BITCHES
comments 666 at the gates 🎧
fuck yeah !!!!
I think Arch Enemy owes their entire existence and sound to ATG.
B Boss I think your opinion is wrong arch enemy kicks ass but at the gates is the shit
Well, you see little man, that's why it's called an "opinion". Did I say it was a fact? Clue, get one.
B Boss hostility at its finest I'm not even talking shit go fuck yourself I said I disagree fucking cry about it big man
Like wise
You're factually wrong about that. Michael Amott has been making melodeath music since Carcass released Heartwork in 1993.
This is beautiful.
Brilliant album. The intro though...
varje kli från hans sida känns, varje kli från hans sida bränns. Vi är vänner men jag är ärlig. Jag lider. Jag vill ha dig!
I'm more of a Disfear fan...
Jackson Rhoads are you not aloud to like both?
@Brett Walker Disfear just sounds better to me. That ok with you?
Jackson Rhoads haha that's fine. I think the same thing at times.
good stuff
whats youre favorite band
Oh! Chuck Norris Metal
CARLOS FELIPE VALLEJO CARDENAS hauahahahahajahababah
was the vocalist wearing a Saint Vitus ring?
yes! Tompa is an hardcore Saint Vitus fan
Like the actual saint or the bar? I tried researching whether he has his own cross or something and couldn't find any info on it specifically. A cross in a V denotes saint Vitus??
One of the best comeback of #Melodic #DeathMetal band.
#AtTheGates rules!
Meh, I prefer Teutonic thrash. Kreator etc
One of my ALL TIME favorite bands. Been out of metal too long, didn't know about the reunion. 29 now, and I've listened to At The Gates since I was around 11 or 12. I would have been all over this had I known about it when it came out.
One does not simply listen to At the Gates at one time and then "be out of metal for a while." Metal forever!
I don't know what these vikings smoking, but result is amazing!)))
GREAT BAND!!! GREAT SOUND!!! GREAT THRASH!!! Please, change the vocalist...thanks.
+Pacopacopaco Quemipaco u idiot thats tompa and hes never been as angry as hes on this album !!! U IDIOT !!!
Yes sir...
ATG is so dope! this is great!
Oehhh, what a great band!! So f*ckin' glad they are back!!!
Holy shit what gear do these guys have
i've never heard an album before where ALL the songs were good.
U have some awful taste! Machinehead Pwns!!
Skeletonwitch is good.
its all anout preference,for me it is from mars to sirius from goijira
I have never really heard someone dislike Machine Head before, and most people say that The Blackening is one of the best metal albums of the decade. What's not to like about them?
Horror and Halloween 101 how about the black dahlia murderers, try their recent album nighbringers
Soy de Argentina y este album esta basado en las obras literarias de Ernesto Sabato y Jorge Luis Borges.
Del realismo magico, lo puedes ver como una obra existencialista, que en esencia trata de lo absurda que es la realidad
aguante Anton
Hablada por Anton Reisseneger, guitarrista/vocalista de Pentagram y Criminal, leyenda viviente del extreme metal en Chile y el mundo.
El intro, muy bueno y le dá un toque oscuro, dramático, nuestro idioma es fantástico.
vea pues esa no me la sabia muy bacano eso
I don't know why people bitch about the vocals since they're similar to those on Slaughter of the Soul...that was released in 1995,this in 2014,so it's logical Tomas's voice is a bit different.
Since when did they release a new album? I just found out about this when I watched the video just now. I always assumed they stopped at slaughter...
+tankintummy They released the album last year.
I love At The Gates.
Im so happy to see them back and kicking ass with a vengeance.
Well that screwed up my head, but interesting still. 'Good work'.
Dope song but idk why he's alone in the grand canyon lol with all the spinning and rapid scenes its kinda cheesy butfuckit hahaha
smdh...
Vocals are just not good compared to Slaughter of the Soul. Very metalcorish
i could maybe get into this. the greatest band of all time brought me here.
arch enemy.
Little known fact, BDM took the Gothenburg style from these guys.
to the disliker's.may you be eternally damned!!
LYRICS
Behind the curtain
Laid to ruins
Words that drift
Into oblivion
With every dawn
The world deforms
And as we fade
Our truth it dies
Our poetry of broken dreams
An abattoir of time
Deep in the hive of the serpent
We shed the disguises we have worn
A curtain of madmen
We are the illusions we have torn
Death and the labyrinth
Swallowed by earth itself
With every dawn
Of hunger and thirst
The world deforms
To a pale uncertain ash
Words without sound
Fade away - as they are swallowed
Swallowed by barriers and walls
Like a swarm
Deep in the hive of the serpent
We shed the disguises we have worn
A curtain of madmen
We are the illusions we have torn
Our poetry of broken dreams
An abattoir of time
Death and the labyrinth
Swallowed by earth itself

2:56 -- I'm sure if I made great art and then talked bullshit I could get idiots to agree to it.
Great tune though.
Nice - keeping it real
Amazingly bad
LMAO, the comments on this video are a total Death M comedy , I would love to have these guys in one room having the discussion about the vocals and stick a couple of cameras in there...they would probably stab each other...Made my pathetic Fri night fun , thank you !!! The "Ice cream comment" by CyphersignaL rocks IMO but then some guy says " What you sell ice cream?" That just topped the cake !!! I'm in tears...
This album is fucking 100% as good as or even better than their classics Slaughter o... etc. No old school DM band has outdone their older albums like At The Gates has with this masterpiece !!!
Where are the other guys?
Everyone talking about the vocals being off... Lay off the newer inflames, and go back to songs like cold. Maybe you're just becoming old and weak.
Welcome to metal, where everyone claims to be the most open minded and accepting people but will flip shit about how a Metalhead is wearing a cap.
I'm not. I'm ok with it.
Esta gran banda eligió al mejor escritor argentino, Ernesto Sabato. Mis dos pasiones.
Man that truck driver is really pissed about being lost in the desert!
Who wouldnt be!?!
hahahahahahaa you made my day man
logan mckinney 😄😄😄 very funny 😂😂
❤❤❤
"At War With Reality" is in a considerable percentage based on the novels "Sobre héroes y tumbas" (Ernesto Sábato) and "El libro de Arena" (Jorge Luis Borges), Argentinian writers (both awarded with the prestigious "Miguel de Cervantes" award). The lyrics and concept in this album are probably the greatest masterpiece in the history of metal, combining with the music in a unique way. It's funny how some stupid kids complain about the vocals, it's obvious that with time Tompa's vocals changed, still, with a lower pitch, they still kick ass. Buy the album, probably one of the greatest comebacks in the history of Metal. The intro read by the Chilean Pentagram's lead singer, is fucking mind blowing and then Death and The Labyrinth does the rest. Couldn't be better to hear they are coming to Chile in September, I'm so there!
Just saw these guys last night in L.A. ...I must say it was an amazing night in the pits
Love the tune, really very cool and good, vocals top notch, very distinct. Only thing is, the video is such a missed opportunity especially for a tune like this, what the f is going on in there, pretty much nothing as far as I can see it.
Never really been a fan of anything 'death metal', but hey. This ain't bad. I can definitely listen to this.
Love this music... At The Gates never lost their touch.
i have waited a long time for this album and i was not disappointed.
This is the shadowy terror i belong, is real cool
They won a Swedish Grammy today for best hard rock/metal act! and we have alot of good bands in both catagorys.
proste nic moc atd
Har Följt och älskat detta band sen jag hörde den första demo tejpen jag fick tag på!! Tack för underbar musik grabbarna i ATG!
It makes me think of Cthonic. I love the music, but not the vocals. I prefer Corey Taylor guttural screaming...
Didn't know truck drivers could yell like that
Tomas Lindberg is one of the best vocalist with one of the best voice on the scene nowdays. Nobody else could do that better in AT THE GATES
King Tompa!
I really wanted to like this album. Really, really wanted to like this album. There isn't anything wrong with it, it's just... slaughter of the soul 2.0 (Terminal spirit disease 3.0 to be even more specific). When they said it was gonna be more like With fear i kiss the burning darkness i was truly excited for this, but i'm just bored by it. Not anything wrong with it, it's just as slick as previous albums, just nothing new.
pretty cool music
Definitely lost what they had in the past for me. Even the vocals. They used to be hellish and dynamic, including on slaughter of the soul, something I just don't get from this song. I liked them a lot when I was younger, but I think that time has passed. If this was more death-metal-ish, then yeah I'd give it a shot. But I'm not feeling it.
The vocals are really shit, if he cannot sing,then move,music is not for losers
I see everyones crying about the vocals - they just arent recorded well. Ive heard them live and theyre still great.
...>>...>>
Brutal as fuck!
Музыка класс,но вокал...
333,333th view... :p
in my opinion best of all their albums.cant wait to see them here live in athens.
This is even better than Slaughter of the Soul in my opinion. Them's some good riffings.
