Woods of Ypres - Lightning & Snow download song

the singer sort of reminds me of type-o negative. Love this song. Thanks pandora for showing me it.

Wow, i found a really awsome new band. Let´s google for an upcomming album: Shiiiieeeeet.... RIP David

" And when I asked for a second chance, life said no." enough said. great music, extraordinary lyrics.

Btw all people discussing about the genre, I will enlighten you. Gothic Metal with Doom and Melodic Black elements.

Jesus listens to Woods of Ypres

wow.. that last 20 seconds.. crushingly moving.. yeah.. that... "the shock and the awe, the fright and the woe.. when i asked for a second chance, life said noooooooooooo"

The Loss Of Love, Has Left Me Hollow, All Bliss Twists Into Pain, Where As They Were, Years Of Grief Have Followed!

the drums sound like the warthog machine gun from Halo 1

I live with chronic manic depression. Their music just captures the desolate feeling that I live in. No good can overcome the horrors of days and weeks spent in a daze of sadness and contemplating the knife and gun. This band really embodies my feelings of hopelessness, and I love them for it

Just discovered this band some days ago, love it. Shame he's not with us anymore

The more I listen to WoY, the more I love 'em. Why must I find such great music once the heartbeat of the band is dead? RIP, David--your music lives on.

Listening to this album and knowing the mindset David was in shortly before he died is one of the most intense feelings of overwhelming, crushing emptiness I've felt. From beginning to end, it sends chills down my spine. Rest in peace David. If I could tell you anything from beyond the grave, it would be to let you know that I've felt your sadness, and despite the hopelessness you felt in life, you managed to inspire thousands of people.

Note the similarities between the "S" in their logo and the number 5

The lyrics are so dark and nihilistic. 

David Gold was such a king. A truly musician with a big message in every song. David Ypres (1980 - ∞)

As for their whole discography: Woods I: Melodic Black Metal Woods II: Melodic Black Metal/Doom Metal and Neofolk Woods III: Similar to Woods II just a bit harsher. IV: Melodic Doom Metal and some Neofolk (this album didn't have much Black Metal elements on it) Woods V: Blackened Doom Metal with some Progressive and Gothic Metal elements

One of the greatest vocalists I've ever heard. David Gold won't be forgotten. RIP

There was a flash of lightning, Followed by snow In a moment of silence (for myself), After a shock to the soul With a look of disbelief, Alone and numb to the cold I knew the last moment had passed, Before enduring years of sorrow There was a crack of electric light, coming down from a darkened sky My dreams flashed before my eyes, as they were erased from my life. There was a flash of lightning, Followed by snow Twas just the moment of change, Before years of sorrow The shock and awe, the fright and woe I only had one life to live, and life said no. The loss of love, has left me hollow All bliss twists into pain, Where there was joy, years of grief have followed! There was a flash of lightning, followed by snow It struck my heart, only once...which made me want it more The emptiness it left in me, will always need to be filled For it will be there all the time, from now on, forever more. There was a crack of electric light, coming down from a darkened sky My dreams flashed before my eyes, AS they were erased from my life. There was a flash of lightning, Followed by snow Twas just a moment of pain, Before years of sorrow The shock and awe, the fright and woe And when I asked for a second chance, life said no.

please tell me he was buried in mount pleasant cemetary
