If you've never worn a gas mask, just trying to breathe in one is hard. Speaking clearly with that thing clamping down on your face is a chore, and the fact that he keeps his diction damn near perfect is frankly remarkable.
I think this would be a modified mask though. it doesnt need to filter any air, it just has to look like a gas mask
@@BRAMB0SSS I'm sure they took the filters out, but even without them, it's still no fun to wear a gas mask.
@@BRAMB0SSS Yeah they modified it so that he could sing and be able to have a microphone in there
Agreed.
Sabaton, the history teacher that you didn't know you want it
"you have to kill a Russian twice, once to kill him, the second to stop him" (do not remember who said the quote, it was a German commander in WWII)
Villify war, Glorify the soldier, they dont look to proclaim any glory of war, but sing the stories of those heroic souls who would remain unsung by history if not brought to light by them
“It’s not enough to kill a Russian soldier - you have to strike him down to the ground.” This famous quote of Otto von Bismarck, the Chancellor of the German Empire, only confirms the unparalleled tenacity of Russian soldiers
I searched up the quote and this comment is literally the only thing in Google's findings that have that quote.
@@Corvaric Considering the onslaught of men and tanks Russia send against German lines this quote probably isn't too far off from being true, even if it isn't something that has actually been said.
"Metal Creu" To see how many bands he can recognize in the lyrics. :P
Could just do the full thing with Metal ripper and Metal machine for a metal trivia video
AWSUME song
@@pieisnice9 Good Idea
@@pieisnice9 I thought the same last night. He should do a metal quizz and see how many bands/songs he can name
Do metal trilogy
Not only is Joakim’s coordination in that mask impressive, but, in my eyes at least, it’s impressive he’s in that whole get-up. He’s constantly singing in a mask that probably restricts breathing somewhat, and wearing that heavy and warm looking coat on stage with a decent amount of stage lighting, which from my knowledge is pretty warm as it is. I’m surprised he wasn’t passing out with all that.
Stage lights are a fucking nightmare. If you have a two hour show it's freaking hell fire. At least for me, but I'm so bad with heat anyway I always need cooling devices or I would rip my clothes off on stage just to get a bit more cool air at least for a moment. So I totally agree with you.
Joakim is a beast. Just build different I guess. In the best way.
Tank the tech talking about techs setting up tanks on tour. What a Gas. Another Great Roadie Reaction.
That’s cool, the door is on your left
You gotta check out "To Hell and Back", specifically from the Antwerp performance of The Great Tour
check the Winged Hussars! even people who don't listen to metal at all know the memes about the Winged Hussars :D
He was about to, but...you know what happened
@@dirkdederik6890 THEN THE WINGED HUSSARS ARRIVED!
@@SightUnseen555 COMING DOWN THE MOUNTAIN SIDE!
@@ayrie09 THEN THE WINGED HUSSARS ARRIVED!
@@yeetbeam2273 COMING DOWN THEY TURNED THE TIDE
This is one of my favourite Sabaton songs.
Another song I would like to recommend is the moving “The Final Solution” , but this may be one for your live reactions as I am not sure if there is a decent quality live version of it.
It has a very heavy and depressing subject matter so they rarely play it live as they generally want to keep their live performances pretty upbeat, it's an amazing song however and most definitely worth a listen despite the lack of a live version.
This one is pretty decent. It's from Cracow too. Should probably mention that it's an acoustic version though
czcams.com/video/2CXViVwreZg/video.html
This one is the actual thing, but lower quality. Out of Antwerp.
czcams.com/video/zN0s0UovtaU/video.html
I found this one pretty cool, one in Prague. Quality is still okay, but could be better: czcams.com/video/u2S-sO21LR4/video.html
There is probably no official live version, but I can recommend this video. It has pretty good quality. (especially considering its filmed from the middle of the crowd) And the accoustic version is pretty beautiful.
czcams.com/video/u2S-sO21LR4/video.html
@@vojtar111 You and I are of the same mind :)
hey tank,
i would highly recommend the animated Story version of "No Bullets Fly "
its a very emotional video i think.
but also a great song, uplifting a hero during WW2
again amazing reaction and greetings
I second that. The part where Stiegler’s grand son listens to Sabaton’s song and he suddenly realizes what it is about and calls his mom to listen - that’s something!
Dude, I can't watch that video without onion ninjas coming into the room. Such an awesome story.
Everysingle time i watch that video i have tears in my eyes!
@@vaclavblazek After hearing that song, I did a bit of investigating and looked up Herr Stiegler's service record. He was an amazing pilot, an ace, and ended up flying jet fighters in the elite JVB 44 fighter group.
The story of this give me the absolute fucking chills, especially with the stage look. Good god damn
This is easily my favourite reaction channel on CZcams.
Would like to see you react to "To Hell and Back" and "Primo Victoria" soon.
Thanks a ton! I’ll definitely be getting to those!
Hell Yeah, more Sabaton. Love attack of the dead men. Would recommend Primo Victoria or Last Dying Breath for next week.
For a link, this video for "Last Dying Breath" is using film depicting the counterattack at Osowiec czcams.com/video/mbmxn11u19Y/video.html
The Lost Batallion, doesn't anyone like that one? 🤔
Edit: Would it make Tank more interested in this song if I say it's about American soldiers in France during WWI? The 77th Division, mostly a mixed bunch of people from New York, street kids, thugs, gangsters, shoemakers and others - All according to the Sabaton History episode about the song.
A lyrics video, SH episode and a live performance from The GreatTour - all are available (we wouldn't hang you out to dry Tank).
Cheers / B.
don’t forget the custom drum kit
@@Archangel1862 - Ah yes, forgot about that, sorry. Tank - Joakim is explaining it in the SH episode. / B.
@@Archangel1862 - And I forgot about the homing pidgeon too.
Was trying to do the edit of the text as quickly as possible, before Tank read the post. I think that if you write a comment and Tank hearts it and then you edit in more there's not much of a chance that he will see the added text. Hence my haste to write the commenr.
/ B.
There is a great movie called The Lost Battalion based on this. Definitely worth checking out. The Commander of the battalion Captain Whittlesey sadly killed himself in 1921 due to his experience of the war. He was travelling on a ship from to Havana from New York. On the first night at sea he had dinner with the captain of the ship and then announced he was retiring to his room, he was never seen again, presumably jumped off the ship and drown. He left a will and letters in his cabin addressed to friends and family.
In my opinion the lost battalion is one of their most epic songs, it's a MUST to listen
you gotta watch the live version featuring Radio Tapok in Moscow
Coming soon!
This chorus has been stuck in my head for a while now
Even if a Russian soldier is dead, it does not mean that he is 100% dead. He can still fulfill his mission. ... In the Soviet Union, and now in Spetsnaz, there was a saying -: "the US Army -" execute the order or die." ... Russian army - "die, but execute the order". ... Not even death can justify disobeying an order. So it was once, and so it is even now in the Russian soul.
Joakim himself mentions in a Sabaton History video (forgot which one but I think it's Bismarck) that he doesn't even lip sync for the music videos, so during filming, he would have water (Bismarck) and sand (Seven Pillars of Wisdom) in his mouth a lot.
This is probably my favorite song from The Great War album! Can't wait for you to react Radio Tapok's version, brother!
So the "Hanes married to floor" has become "Emppu's EV-1" noice
That and Pär's bass lol
The EV-1 thing was funny though, this is annoying! Not Tank's fault though, people ARE going to mention it.
I just don't tell people about it when I tell them they have to listen to Sabaton. :D
Hey! Great reaction!🤘 I'm catching up with music reactions. (I've been working too much lately). You mentioned the background vocals... I've learned that both Chris and Tommy are great singers. They actually covered for Joakim when he lost his voice on a tour. They didn't want to cancel the show.
Tommy is also lead singer in Majestica. His vocal range is insane!! Check out Majestica's "Above the sky"and "Ghost of Marley".
Wings Husars!!! Great video and reaction again. Greetings from Poland
Sick reaction! Cant wait till you get to the song "Great War" :D
Whenever I hear Great War, it always brings me back to their vlog where they are singing/practicing the song in a tiny room but still giving it all haha. And people own a hallway are so confused.
That's one of the Sabaton songs I get stuck in my head a lot. Good song.
Great video ! I really liked it ^^
As for the courage of the 100 Russians, I don't deny it, they were incredibly brave et resilient, but also they had nothing to lose. They had been exposed to the gas, they were half-dead already. A few of them died from being exposed to the gas a few hours after their counter-attack (notably the officer leading the counter-attack). They were heroes and I really like this song and this story ^^
7:42 this is basically definition of "All rules are written in blood"
Yes!! I was there at London, what a night! And sold out. And this is one of my favourites. Awesome video
the live preformance of sabaton at "tons of rock" at fredriksten fortress in halden are pretty damn good. they played the carolus rex album at the fortress where carolus rex died sieging the castle.
they had reenactors up on stage in period uniforms.
they even joked about how the only way they got in was the fact they brought a tank.
I can't imagine the terror that each German soldier had when he saw Russian soldiers standing up, staggering, twisting blood and pieces of lungs going towards them shouting and shooting, those men were going to die, but they didn't go alone!
Such terror hung up to WWII, when the generals instructed Hitler to use gas bombs against civilians in London, Hitler who survived a gas attack refused
- Do you remember what happened in Osowiec?
Great reaction! "Karolinens Bon" is a must, their Swedish songs hit really differently. Same goes for "En Livstid I Krig", 'Carolus Rex", Lejonat Fran Norden", and "Konungens Likfärd".
What's even cooler is that Sabaton has a collab channel with TimeGhost History, and there they discuss the history behind their songs.
Tank said on one of the earlier reaction videos that while he does check out Sabaton History, he won't do it before the reaction because they include clips of the music in the history video. Tank wants to avoid music spoilers and show a true "first" reaction. That's why when he looks it up, he uses different sources.
Holy crap man this is my first time watching one of your reactions amd I absolutely love the way you make your content
Thanks a ton!
Hell yeah, more Sabaton! This time round I'll recommend "Fields of Verdun", "Winged Hussars", "The Price of a Mile" (Wacken 2019, man), "Primo Victoria" or "The Final Solution" (for a much more serious note).
My favourite song on the great war album and such an amazing story, heroism to the max!!
Hope you'll check out more of their songs from the Carolus Rex album, hearing them sing in Swedish makes those songs feeling even more epic somehow.
It wouldn't have made sense for Heroes, with its theme of individuals, but it could have worked for The Last Stand, with its theme of desperate final fights.
A Ghost In The Trenches is a must
Thanks for another Sabaton Saturday! Not one of my favorite Sabaton songs, but the story behind it is amazing!
You should react to Shiroyama, To Hell and Back and Soldier of 3 Armies next. Some of their best songs, and they also have really cool history behind them!
Cheers from Brazil
Tank reacting to Tankaton is always amusing, i LOVE Sabaton Lördagar!
Not a Tank Fact: I was at this gig lmao, first ever arena show and only the third gig I've ever been able to get too (other two have been DragonForce, who by some miracle keep coming to my home town). Atmosphere was amazing, and the sheer brilliance of the production value just added to it.
Highlight moment was when Joakim decided to take the piss out of the fact British people are notorious for our lack of second-language speaking skills, and taught us to 'Speak Swedish' by playing a keyboard shaped like a WW1 Triplane and chanting 'IKEA' to the tune of Swedish Pagans. And to think, 6 weeks later, we'd all be in our first of 3 lockdowns over here.
Thanks for doing this video man, brought back some great memories
Let's go!!! More sabaton is always good. Love the content dude keep it up!
The Live version of Attack of the Dead Men at the SSE Arena, I was there. First time seeing sabaton live and have to say the atmosphere is unbelievable!
This is my absolute favorite song now. The history and event of that had flashed me so hard that these undead soldiers counter-attacked us back then. Really impressing. I'd bow myself infront of a russian when i talk with him/her about that. My high respect. I even have named my Death knight in World of Warcraft Osowiec. Focused on doing plague diseases other stuff like that and getting supported by zombies.
man, that live performance has a killer drum sound
Thanks for this one! Extraordinary history, awesome song and another top notch "Roadie reaction"!
I was at that Wembley show. A superb gig.
Nice!!!
the live performance of this song in Russia was in my opinion even more amazing, especially with the inclusion of... Radio Tapok I believe is his name
Funny moment: Radio tapok's cover on this song was published before the actual song came out
One of my favorite Sabaton songs!
Some other good ones from the Great War , Lost Battalion and 82nd All the Way. Both example from the Meuse-Argonne offensive of 1918.
And my two all time favorites, Resist and Bite and THE WINGED HUSSARS
Thanks! Awesome song and storie!
I hated music lessons at school, because teacher kept telling that decent people listen only classic music. And I did not understand theory (music was the only subject I kept cribbing), so now I am listening, listening to others reacting and looking for explanation what makes me feel the way as I feel.
BTW, I have learned that most soldiers in the army of the Russian Empire had to rely on the rag they had peed on. No gas masks. Bad luck for those who could not cook their water and, as result, got diarrhea.
I was at this show with my Dad, has to be one of the best bands I've seen live. I'd love for you to do Winged Hussars or Resist and Bite next, but honestly Sabaton truly don't have a bad song imo.
Love the reaction as always, and again I'm gonna suggest #BabyMetalMonday but keep up the good work my dude
I was there! Great reaction Mr Tank
Fun fact about these regulations:
Flamethrowers, gas, serrated bayonets, clubs, even axes were considered okay, but the germans started complaining when the american marines brought in shotguns with bayonets.
Think about that, the rest was all okay, but heavens forbid bayonet equipped shotguns.
Dude Monterrey Corona Northside Metal Meeting 2016 they were AMAZING! Full stage props. Open air very similar to tbe Euro vibe.
"Throw your soldiers into positions whence there is no escape, and they will prefer death to flight."
Sun Tzu, "The art of war"
Great job Tank. What a crazy show. It has to be very hard to perform with that gasmask and tank on his back.🤘🤘🤘☝
A great reaction to one of my favourite songs!
I love waking up on Sunday mornings, making a coffee, and watching Sabaton Saturday first thing! (It’s Sunday in Australia! Haha)
It wasn't just the 100 soldiers. The Russians brought in reserves from further behind the frontlines to launch a counterattack and the 100 "dead men" charged the enemy alongside that counterattack.
The Russians were still vastly outnumbered, but it wasn't as extreme as 7000 against 100.
The course on this song is just so catchy. I think the live performance was awesome. I love the costumes and stage set up.
great reaction!
i would recommend "resist and bite" Joakim plays a guitar on stage and i have no idea what it is.
Joakim is a HELL of a professionnal to sing this clearly with that huge pack on the back. Man I dunno the weight of this baby.... but it surely doesn't seem light. And how can he breath?
Sabaton - The Attack of the Dead Men (Cover на русском | RADIO TAPOK)
God video
Shiroyama, the last stand and winged hussars are all must listen to’s. Love this series man.
Do Livgardet the week after next week, it is a new single from Sabaton, which will be released on Friday, the 26th. Just in time for Sabaton Saturday on the 27th.
That was the last gig I went to before Covid shut everything down, an absolute epic gig
Always fun to see your videos about Sabaton ! I can suggest u Seven pillars of wisdom ! I start reading the book because of the song! And the official video si performed by Indy from sabaton history channel wearing the clothes of Lawrence of Arabia !
The price of a mile is massive banger. Definitely check it out at some point.
Nice one Tank!
Hell yeah, this was fun I'm glad you enjoyed the song
What a true story again. Awsome
To Hell and Back on the Great Tour video on their channel has one of the best crowd reactions I've ever heard. Might be worth reacting for a video
This is by far my favorite live performance of theirs.
Attack of the Dead Men is the song that I found Sabaton to! I was looking for a history vid about it and found a song and bam!
Sabaton Saturday, my favourite day of the week! I was at this gig, last one before the UK lockdown and it was absolutely epic
Alright, So I'm going to recommend my personal favorite Sabaton song: "Shiroyama". Amazing song, amazing story. Other than that, "Hell and Back" and "The Winged Hussars"(prepare for ALL THE MEMES) are a must. Have fun, Tank!
I saw them live on this tour. The chorus was so much fun to sing. I got The History Edition album. The Narration for this song and 82nd All The Way Are my favorite.
Sabaton always delivers, you never get dissapointed 🤘❤️ and thank you for a great reaction...again 👌
Saturday has become my favorite day of the week
On the plus side that outfit gave Joakim's right leg a bit of a rest.
There's something cool about the number of reactions you do to shows where I was in the crowd. In this instance, I was at Wembley for this one.
Tank: Suggest a song you would like me to react to.
YT comment section: ALL OF THEM!!!!!!
I was at the london show. Took my little bro to see our favourite band.
I was there solo, travelled from Newcastle for one night. Totally worth it.
Got lucky really as march whole uk got lockdown lucky it didnt end up cancelled
For sure, just before everything kicked off. Last big event before everything else got cancelled.
You saw them one day before I did. London feb 8 2020 , I was at the show in Amsterdam on the 9th. Just in time to see it before the world rather changed. I'm still sooooooo happy I got to see this. Still gives me chills thinking back. Tank is right in saying its an experience to attend a sabaton concert. Everyone singing along with every single song, the atmosphere just cannot be described and needs to be experienced.
Into The Fire
Reminds me of the training we underwent in the USAF having to go inside a dark, almost unlit building with our masks at our sides. The room was already filled with teargas (CS pellets). The feeling of the stinging effects of the CS gas in our eyes, waiting for the command to put our masks on, then the struggle to don our masks properly, helped to give us a real understanding of what a chemical attack might entail. Even though it was only tear gas. I can't imagine what these soldiers endured which was far deadlier and the survivors still having the presence of mind to conduct a counterattack.
I was at that Gig....It was powerful live!!
Finally! This was great, and definitely worth the wait. Also, my suggestion would either be Firestorm or Killing Ground, though I'm unsure if there are good live clips of either.
This was an amazing show so glad I got to be here before COVID hit
Props on your hopes for live foxes, but based on being one of the lucky ones hearing Gwar soundcheck I’d say this one is “lipsync”. Gwar without masks sounds amazing. But they life with the muffled vocals. I’d say same goes for Slipknot. Other side is that the vocals are really dynamic and doesn’t sound muffed. So if this is live, I’d be really interested in their setup.
For the smoker backpack, a good battery pack and some pre-heating on a PowerPoint cable would do. The backpack is wide enough to hide say a Unieqe without flipping the darn thing. Would have loved the challenge of building one of those. There is craftsmanship into that beauty!
I talked to their drum tech in and interview and he did confirm that they rigged up a microphone inside of the gas mask for Joakim.
my favorite song from the Great War!
Metal machine and Metal crue. I know its not live, but it is important because of metal and history.
When you already "dead", you have nothing to lose. So, make shure your enemy can run away. Ore he will fight to the teeth.
Like this song more and more..... 🤗👊🏼
And Amazing live shows
Awesome reaction as usual. Following your journey with Sabaton is wonderful, as they are still a new band for me too. Did hear one track about the Falklands conflict, and as a Brit definitely looking forward to when you get there.
The Last Stand!!
The history lessons Sabaton provide time and again is for me the major appeal - the sound is kinda expected/run of the mill at this point, but the themes and writing brings new stuff to the table all the time.
I think you're having a great balanced focus on the history/facts and the music!
Also, huge props (pun intended) to all the techs and crew in general working with stuff like this - Sabaton is of course a very ambitious example in use of tech and props, but it's an aspect and a skill often overlooked.
Those gas warfare costumes and mic rigs are sick, can't even imagine how hot it has to be performing in that outfit and how low the visibility has to be. Gas masks, especially old ones are... not great in terms of visibility.
YES! Love it dude! Personally recommend The Last Battle, it's a great song, and the history is crazy, defecting Wehrmacht, US army, and french politicians fighting the SS in an Austrian castle, days before the German surrender. But you should do Primo Victoria next, it's a classic for a reason.
EDIT:Also not pictured in the video, but they let the smoke flow out over the front few rows of the audience before the song, it was super intense down there.
I was there that night!!
Absolutely phenomenal show... sadly, it was my last gig before the Coronavirus hit the UK and we had everything cancelled
So happy you finally reacted to this! This is one of my favorite songs from the Great War.
It’s a great song and hell of a story
Awesome reaction as always 🤘😎
