Standstill // DARK TRANQUILLITY | Melodic Death Metal | Guitar Cover

Some fresh melodic death metal from Gothenburg incoming! This is my very first Dark Tranquillity guitar cover ever which isn’t played on a live stream. 🙃 “Standstill” is such a beautiful track in each way. My favorite off their latest album “MOMENT”. The pre-chorus always gives me the chills – so simple but effective 😃 The song has quite some details which I didn’t get right 100%, especially in the solo, but I wanted it to be a very organic and authentic recording, so I recorded the left/right track and the solo in one takes each. The original solo take will be released as a reel soon!
DT also are currently finishing their new album, are you as excited as I am? Really glad to catch them live at Wacken this year! 🤘🏻

The guitars are pre-recorded through a Neural DSP Quad Cortex to get the most cinematic video outcome possible – still trying, but getting there! Mostly learnt by ear as the guitar tab on songsterr wasn’t completely accurate.

Thank you so much to my friend Birdynary for always finding the time to do these outdoor videos with me when we meet up and chill together. You rule 🙏🏻

🎶 LYRICS 🎶
[Verse 1]
Where are we now? Where are we going?
To the ends of our worlds, if not further
Where are we now? Where are we going?
To the other side of right

[Pre-Chorus 1]
From wherever I am
I call to you
From wherever I am tonight

[Chorus]
We are strangers where we stand
Do I have to be the one to let this go forever
To see what lies unknown?
I don’t want to be the one to let this go forever

[Verse 2]
We are what we can, we can only hope to forget
This distance-created curse
Of silence and waking nights
I thought I could see an end

[Pre-Chorus 2]
To do whatever we can
To raise the stakes
To make everything count tonight

[Chorus]
We are strangers where we stand
Do I have to be the one to let this go forever
To see what lies unknown?
I don’t want to be the one to let this go forever

[Post-Chorus]
So this is where we are tonight
We’re at a standstill till the end

[Pre-Chorus 3]
From wherever I am
I call to you
I call to you
From wherever I am
From whoever I am tonight

[Chorus]
We are strangers where we stand
Do I have to be the one to let this go forever
To see what lies unknown?
I don’t want to be the one to let this go forever

[Post-Chorus]
So this is where we are tonight
There is nowhere to go from here
