Today I was inspired by three kids, who sang in a language I do not understand, to translate and research a history I never heard of, because their music is powerful!
@jack skelsky Maoris didn't found the nation, nice try though. Us British built and founded the nation, nice try though.
Maximus the brits could just stay on that shitty island and kept to themselves instead of trying to spread and control populations across the world. Still have their hands in countries like India, Scotland, the pacific islands and of course Ireland!
@@-MJ_ Oh really? Look up who founded and built Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch in fact every city in New Zealand. It was us British who did that.
We came over here because we are a natural explorer and fighting race, that's why we conquered you because we were better at fighting than you.
The same argument could be used against Maori, why didn't you stay on this shitty little island instead of sailing off and conquering the Moriori? Because that's what people do, they conquer other people whenever they can, don't be mad just because we were better at conquering and fighting than the maori were.
Maximus hey jit bag...read a book. Polynesians settled there in 1200's followed by Dutch in 1600's. British didn't come in until later. And if you're so good at fighting, than how did a bunch of American colonist rebels kick your asses back across the ocean in 1776?
@@-MJ_ America was Europeans fighting Europeans, it's fair game.
Just because maori settled in NZ doesn't mean they built anything, you built grass huts and Pa's and fought with each other and enslaved each other all the time.
No need to be so mad just because Europeans are better fighters than Maori. Our homeland was literally on the other side of the world and we still managed to kick your guys ass and conquer your land which we then built a country on.
I fucking adore how theyre keeping their language and culture alive with a genre that was also thought to be dying...THAT is metal as fuck and I support it hard
I had a teacher once tell me, "Metal always seems to be dying, and then it comes back." I think we're on another wave of Metal: It's more diverse than ever, it's more globally connected, and it's fucking exciting for metal fans to see so much creativity happening.
Metal has never been bigger than now. Hellfest is booked in 3 hours after tickets go to sales...
Metal will never die. Make the world metal again.
Metal never dies.
Also here from The Hu?
Bands singing in their native tongues is the purest form of metal
They are from Colorado
@@CreepinCreeper01 no they are from New Zealand

Girl, you gotta do your research. They're from my country, speaking my language.
@@samos343guiltyspark Where did she even get that from 😂😂
@@TheBorathon Native American, Maori, must all be the same thing haha.
Bro, I have no idea. Must be wishful thinking XD
This song is about the Maori defeating the British at the Battle of Gate Pa in 1864 but How? The Maori learnt early on that guns were effective so bought them from traders, they used double barrelled shot guns at close range from trenches when the British stormed their Pa (fortress) the Maori traditional weapons were also lethal at this range as muskets took too long to reload. The British and Maori had a mutual respect for each other after that battle.
❤Aue
Defeat the man we will...
Plus, I recently learned how they were actually great at siege warfare. Setting up trenches, and bunkers that could withstand a British bombardment for hours.
@@musicaldooder20 Sometimes even days!
Damn
i love when people represent their culture through metal, and the Maori are certainly a very metal culture
Verdade !
Novo metal 🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼
@Xarris377 You are not wrong on that account. Maori have not been heard enough, so this is a good chance for them to be heard from a different perspective ^_^
@Benito Evans almost the same reason as to why vikings were metal
@Benito Evans
Sure...sure...
yes we are... ka mau tewehi!
Whether it’s American, New Zealandian, Mongolian, British, Indian, German or Scandinavian... metal, metal never changes.
New Zealandian? Really?
New Zealandian 😊🙈 Sounds cool! But I prefer Tangata Whenua
This is the power of the internet. Until I read this comment, I never imagined Ron Perlman narrating a history of South Pacific Metal.
Got on the Mongolian train a couple months ago. Just arrived at the new Zealand station about a week ago and I have to agree... Metal is metal and it's good my friends
Just goes to show that metal is universal! Mongols are definitely fucking metal! Maori? Metal! Vikings? Damn fucking metal! The Roman Empire? Ex Deo told us it's metal! Hell, I'm waiting for someone to make Zulu metal at some point.
My dad is over 80 years old, but when he was a younger man, he lived in New Zealand in the mid 1950's and late 1960's teaching high school. He learned some Te Reo Maori, and later on, as a math teacher in the US, he would start out each school year with a ground-shaking haka for his students.
One of the first things I did when I heard this song was show it to him and my mom. It brought tears to his eyes! He loved that it sounded to him like a traditional Maori haka. Well done @Alien Weaponry!
Metal is raw emotion an I'm not surprised it resonated with your dad. There are so many ways to express one's culture and Metal does it like no other genre. Glad it gave so much joy to him.
Thx for sharing your Dad's experiences here in NZ amongst Māori. I'll bet he got the attention of all his students when he did the haka! Did he by any chance teach at CCNZ?
How badass as a culture do you have to be for someone to say “death is coming” and your response is “Lol your mistake bro”
Keep in mind we are ALL the products of warrior cultures. Not taking anything from the Maori, they were a great warrior culture, hence why they exist. All the non-warrior cultures from across the world never survived first contact with their neighbors, such is life I'm afraid.
@Davis Kingi The Maori of the Cook islands are without martial tradition? This is news to the world I think.
With an English ear, the opening sounds like, "fuck around and find out."
@@briangenack9675 To my Afrikaans ear it sounds like "Fokker kom na my nou", roughly "You fucker, come here *now* "
@@briangenack9675prett6 accurate to most Haka messages lol
3 kids makin all that noise ? yup, the future of metal is gonna be just fine !
You can't stop the metal.
@@RobJFalcon the metal surrounds us and penetrates us , it binds the galaxy together. may the metal be with you always.

gene simmons: rock music is dead, the internet killed it. there are no new bands people will remember in 20 years, and my back hurts.

Comment of the year!!!!!
Dude! Brilliant comment lolz. I no longer give 2 shits about KISS after reading Gene's dumbass words you put up and I cringed way too hard when I saw a vid of Paul Stanley spewing libtard bullshit and this is so sad coz I listened to them, Sabbath n Zep back in the mid 70s.
Ozzy has a new album out. And, to be perfectly honest, I would not be surprised in the least if Ozzy releases new albums from beyond grave after he leaves this realm
Did you mean: 'Okay Boomer'
You mean the reality TV star? :D
ahahahah made my day
40 year old metal head grandma here and I couldn’t agree more with all the comments that I can now be at peace that metal is and and will not die. Now it’s my job to teach and educate my granddaughter what real music sounds like. The talent and passion. 🤘🏼

Came across these by accident. At 57yrs young i thought metal had about gone. These lads are proof its still going strong. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
I’m 46 & agree 100% !!
I can go to my grave in a few decades knowing metal is not only going to survive, but thrive. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🥰

As a metalhead and anthropologist, I can't love this song enough.
Hey there are others like me XD
hi from a fellow Anthropologist and metalhead haha doing my thesis on metal in México, some bands like this too :)
I just came across PUNJABI HEAVY METAL - I'm Christian Sikh and a Metal Head - this was funny - and they were excellent. czcams.com/video/2Gfr-nVKnhs/video.html
good your looking at the maori language as well as the passion they have for metal
sure you are
I'm bald and the hair on my head stood up at the power of this song.
Awesome !
I’m bald as well
I love the username
I'm not bald but with heavyness of this song i probably goes bald as well
This wave of native tongue metal reminds me of the hardcore punk scene of the 80's, bands from all over the world together doing the same stuff. That's unity kids, keep rocking xx
Moved to the other side of the planet, to a small town in rural America and one of the cops knew where I was from because he's an Alien Weaprony fan. Tu meke!!
Holy shit, the young people are not completely lost.
Agree i have hope!
These guys are very young, around 15 I believe. Very impressive.
Right! I thought the same damn thing when I first heard them! I was beaming thinking FUCK YES we have hope! Not only do they rock! They kick ass and are keeping up with heritage! I cant stop listening to them!
There are plenty of young ones who make great music. I’d argue even more so than previous generations. Just gotta know where to look. The rest of the dirt is just shoveled in your face like the rest of us.

Some Maori words are untranslatable.
Copied this. Kia ora kia koe
tomiller10 google translate sucks with Maori, I had to send them corrections too the most basics of greetings lol.
These boys brought a tear to this old metalheads eye knowing that heavy music will live on. Well done boys, well done.

It's quite wonderful how, despite all the blooodshed, NZ has come to embrace Maori culture in a very healthy way.
Wish more nations would come to those terms.
If my kids grow up making this much noise, I will have succeeded
Does anyone else get goosebumps when the beatdown hits or is it just me?
Your not alone brother 🤘🤘
Not just you
Its badass for sure
Same here
Same
This is a stroke of genius. Taking the roots of death/trash metal and mixing it with a culture of warriors and fighters. This should be a thing : blending slayer riffs with maori, arch enemy riffs with maori, dream theater with maori... This is a potential well of great music ! Definitely will want to hear more.
i might try making samoan metal
Other bands do this, but not for Maori. Sabaton, for example hits a lot of warrior cultures but particularly the 20th century warriors. Amon Amarth does this for vikings.
Dude - Slayer played the night before Alien Weaponry in Manchester, TN. They had AW playing the next day @ 1pm. But these KIDDOS FUCKING SLAYED IT!!! I must say waking up @ 11am and walking across the Corn Field with my 9yr old Daughter and her Father in tow - we missed the Drummer begining w/ The HAKA, AND 45mins was suck a tease. They didn't have the OG Bassist either, but the
"Fill in" was awesome ( p.s.no disrespect fill in dude). I've been watching these guys hoan their craft for a couple of years -

This is bad ass. kinda reminds me of older metal like Pantera or Sepultura.
itz ´morre than Fear Factory xxD
I hear Sepultura influence for sure
Nothing is more powerful then falling in love with a band on first listening, its such a special, special feeling, I'm gonna be following these guys for their rest of their careers, and I wish them perpetual growth and success, long live maori metal \,,,/
Grab a big pot and put in:
1 Sepaltura
1 Silver Chair
1 Patea Maori Club
Bring to the BOIL!
Cool then serve - DAMN that's GOOD!
Fuck yeah! I got Silverchair vibes as well.
Man you right, I do feel Silverchair. Maybe it’s the vocals or something.
Yes Sep n Silverchair are definitely there
throw in a sprinkling of Blindspott as well - some of the vocal delivery is quite similar on the chorus sections of AW's songs.
@@sourayanbiswas4591 .. Then I'd say they have been Exposed to Silver Chair as kids- really wouldn't surprise me none at all -

You can't kill the metal. The metal will live on
As Jack Black's "The Metal" song for told
The metal will strike you down with a vicious blow!
Totally buying your album when it drops. Te Reo and metal is a combination to be reckoned with!
Agree these guys are onto something very unique that will appeal to a very big range of people!! Well done guys I love it!!

As a New Zealander and long time metal head this song gives me goosebumps!!!
That breakdown at 1:04 made me breakdown… I don’t know if I’ll ever be the same again.
Im literally, half the globe away ( U.K.) and l can still feel the power of this band and there skull smashing, real hard bastard warrior culture 😛😛😛😛
3:02 the bassists vocals gives me chills
Kudos to the sound guys for how they mic’d these drums. The old “punch in the face” vibe… beautiful.
Just want to mention something. There is no gimmick here. Just three men in t-shirts and shorts, guitars and speakers, screaming their soul out. This is pure rock.
Metal not Rock
God, the metal genre has anything and everything. It's kind of amazing
Welcoming young blood to join the metal universe. I'm so glad to see a home grown band coming out at such young age with good sounds and good concept.
These kids have so much potential. And their music in their language is absolutely mesmerizing
This is my wake up alarm. These guys are great!
This is Metal at its very fkn best! I just heard this for the 1st time not 10 minutes ago, and Im still trying to comprehend just how BadAss this song, and band are! I couldn't understand a word of it, but the music alone, was so fkn Awesome, I was in tears of respect to these guys, about halfway through it. Im 50, from Texas, and I commend you for making this great fkn song, for all of us to enjoy! HMR!!
I am 59 and this is badass metal, well done guys.
Try the hu band, its also good
Clif, if your on a computer/laptop or phone right under the video click the dots next to the word SAVE and then click open transcript, it will give the English words.
I'm 63, Maori, love hard rock, not really into metal - and looove it! Shared xoxo
im 48 and i just found this band , started with the song Blinded , im really digging it , Im also Tx born and bred
If this is what you guys can do at your age, I can just envision youre going to be absolute powerhouses with more years of songwriting and playing under your belts. Looking forward to seeing what you guys create! Keep it up, awesome stuff!!
Mudvayne Megan Yeah they can be brilliant. But it is not easy make hits.
Maori is actually a pretty metal language. \m/
woah! you guys are seriously epic! awesome track guys!
As an immigrant, this was a concept I wanted to see 10 years ago. I found the implant of ukuleles the rudest form of gentrification on the planet. Haka is obviously metal! Finally seeing it happen is hair raising. My life is complete now.
Ukuleles are pretty boring if you ask me. These kids are really kicking it, though. I wonder if they'll go about and add some more treditional instruments to their blend of Maori/Te Reo thrash metal. I think that would be sick!
Or those dive-bomb female maori wails.

@@sisamusudroka3000 Ever heard of Death Metal mate?
Hey, just wanted to let you guys know...I try to show your videos to everyone I know...you've shown that the Haka is Metal, and it is a fantastic way to pay respect to the Maori culture and show the world. Every time I see somebody react to your songs, I see it energize them...and I see them get every bit as pumped as they would listening to a traditional Haka.
I'm not a New Zealander or remotely Maori, just a metal head from Alaska, but I'm very proud of your music...keep up the great work!!!
Another metal head from Alaska here. Totally agree. These guys are on to something great.
My brother got into this band a while ago, and was so hyped when me & him saw them support Gojira in London the other night. At the start of this song, he absolutely roared back the call & response of "WHAKARONGO MAI RÃ!" and made the people in front of him jump out of their skin!
I listened to this song for the first time today, went to bed, dreamed about it, woke up in the middle of the night and I'm here again, banging my head with all my face muscles flexed \,,,/
Imagine if they create a metal version of the Haka to start the concerts. The most brutal and tribal mosh pit ever
They sometimes do start their concerts with a Haka. Not a metal one, a traditional one 😊
Awesome music! And the fact that the first few words that are sung/spoken a capella, sounds like "Are you fucking with me?!" in my dialect (Scanian Swedish) just makes it that more awesome! =)
fokker du med mæra
"WHAKARONGO MAI RĀ!" means listen here! In other words, pay attention and don't mistake my intentions.

This is awesome! It reminds me of sepultura.. very different too.. definitely has its own unique style for sure..these guys r gonna blow up man.. killer stuff..
REMINDS ME A LITTLE OF ARTAS AS WELL...CHECK THEM OUT IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY
I'm so mad, I just found these guys, they're playing about 3 hours from our house at ROCKLAHOMA but that's in a week (spoiler alert, I can't come up with 180 bucks for the tickets plus find a baby sitter in time), and it's crushing my soul. I'd kill to see these guys play in person. I don't give a shit if they're young, they've given me hope for their generation, and they've gained a life long fan in me. I wanna see them blow up, they damn well deserve it.
Praise you for using this magnificent language and your nation history in your lyrics. Excelent music! From across the world (portugal), greetings.
There is so much talent in this band, can't wait to see them live again!

saw them live earlier this year, i will remeber that concert till the day i die. plus the pit was insane!
Hasta que escucho algo de calidad y con un toque diferente por fin en otro idioma y claramente tiene su valor solo espero que no se acabe la calidad que tienen
Eso es lo que más me gustó. Lo diferente a los otros grupos y el uso de su lengua ancestral.
The Maori may not have known how to make metal but they definitely were a Metal society.
Warriors covered in tats, ready to fucking kill invaders? Metal as FUCK.
They seem to honor the Maori people, and to an extent their history... much respect to their craft and what it expresses. I am a new listener, and at 40+yrs old i must say, I was hooked on AW from the 1st song "Kai Tangata". That song must have been on repeat all the way home yesterday. This is such a refreshing but primal raw sound. I have been burnt out on the classics here in the states. Keep up the great work
I might be over thinking your comment, but they are actually in the 3% of people who can speak the language of the Maori people.

I did not even know I needed to hear this but I am so glad I did, this stomped on my heart so hard. Guys this is awesome keep it up!!!!!
I really appreciate the fact that all three of them provide vocals.
Proud to be a kiwi and proud to share your band name !! Fly high boys !!
The Metal flows strongly in these young ones
This is the Alien Weaponry that brought me to their table. Guys, more of this - it is beyond awesome. No more soft songs for a little while even if they are easier to play live. Keep it NUTS, keep it hard, keep it Maori and stick with it. Worried about some of the more recent material. I’m a huge fan here in the US. This brings something crazy cool to thrash. Stick with the harder stuff. Please please please. The genre needs you guys.
Im with this guy👉🏽...ready to see them destroy Chesterfield,Mo with Gojira
No english translation needed. This language is a powerful and beautiful one, and it's history is rich with a balance of good and bad. Peace and love from the United States, you absolute legends.
Jesus, these guys are killing it! I somehow love songs in exotic languages I can't understand - and I love metal, so this is just perfect. And it sounds they're really talented!
I’m 50 and you boys have bought back memories of growing up in West Auckland , when we were banging to maiden!!
Well done ! NZ culture with some good instrument work ... F yeah Kia KAHA !
