Imagine being bandmates with the sworn enemy of the universe.
Imagine not being funny
@@blind_surgeon Lighten up.
Wickedly awesome. I'd be cool with it
@@blind_surgeon You must be real fun at parties, dude.
@@bigdaddydiesel5520 wow the "you must be fun at parties" reply. You're so original and cool. Ironic how someone so boring would say someone's not fun at parties.
I love when a pastel unicorn hoodie is appropriate attire for a metal concert.
36:07 kkkkkkkkk
Who doesnt
I love metal community. That kind of shit is always hilarious and appropriate!
Link?
Depends on the band but yes
Conspiracy: No-one has ever seen Angus McFife and Formula 1 driver Sebastian Vettel in the same room together.
Hmmmm... :-)
Fact: Both are germany and have the same mother.
I'm so glad i wasn't the only one thinking that especially Vettel in his earlier red bull days with his hair.Im guessing this is the real reason he is leaving Ferrari ;)
@QuadBlaster _ yes he is
So glad I'm not alone.
This is like a kids show for adults.
No, it’s the single greatest fantasy storytelling in the history of history
Reyn Time
For kids and adults!
Exactly what i was thinking lol
Cheers for the explanation, now I understand the concept better. My first thought actually was: what a ridiculous crap.
@@herdyingfiance1130 Someone's upset.
Waaait a minute. A festival recording with actual good sound? What kind of new devilry is this?!
It only sounds big because of the drum samples and backing tracks. Actually I think it’s shit. Not knocking the style of music or their ability but I think bands should play actually live which includes the actual sound of the drums, not drum software. Sounds like a Tv show where they play the recording and just have the singer do live vocals on it.
@@Skoora He doesn't play with drum samples dude. He may have a trigger on the kickdrum, but that's standard for most festival gigs. And no, it sounds great because it's been mixed well, at the show, as well as after.
@@Skoora I'm guessing we're watching two different concerts?
@@BeardedDanishViking in fact they use playback, but i think not the drums, guitar, bass and vocals, they are played live. the playback is the symphonics, 2nd guitar tracks probably and vocal harmonics. but this does not mean that they are shit or something, a lot of bands do this. and when i saw gloryhammer it was one of the best live shows ever, i can only recommend it
This is the power of hoots!!!
Can we just take a moment to appreciate the fact that this is those guys' job?
actually the lead singer is also a lawyer/notary
@@ScoreMagnet no wonder they're able to stay in business then - he's probably a music label's worst nightmare to negotiate contracts with
@@ScoreMagnet no way for real?
webkilla Chris Bowes is also a member of the band, and Alestorm (one of his other bands) gets more than a little bit of money for Napalm Records
@@webkilla Hah, imagine those contract negotiations. "Is your band's lawyer going to be late?" "I AM the band's lawyer!" "Well.... shit."
"And when I say, Galactic Fortress, I obviously mean, the bar."
These guys are awesome.
You can’t hide your roots, Alestorm
7:01
Wait, wait.
No one is going to point out how James Cartwright/the Hootsman was just drinking beer *while* still playing the guitar?
That's one of the most metal things I've ever seen.
He was only chugging on the open E so no need for his left hand. Also he was playing the bass.
@@nonameno2006 Still epic

You dare doubt the power of

I mean.... it's becks, that barely counts as beer
Gloryhammer basically embodies everything I like about power metal
What because it's lighthearted and fun

Yeah, I was thinking, it was basically 40k if you replace all the grimderpitude with awesomesauce and ham and cheese.
basically everything i hate.
Gloryhammer is a beacon of light in these dark times. For the glory of Dundee!
For the *Eternal glory of Dundee. ;) \m/
@Alex Estevam aleluia irmão.
@Alex Estevam Amém.
@@rafaelrrgarcia Amém.
Not anymore, apparently.
Seriously though, movies or an entire series needs to be made of their albums. Obviously with their music as bgm.
Yeah, the story is so funny and still so epic and good. And about the music: Although it's all a parody, it's some of the best power metal I've ever heard!
i still think they just write songs about their dnd campaign lol
Imagine an actual RPG game out them, the world would never be the same.
We need an anime, a movie series, a game, and a dnd setting
@@cheez-itman2784 Totally agree like they did with iron maiden
wow medieval-armored sebastian vettel can sing!
Jacobruxo he really does look like Vettel lol
hahahaha I always said it XD
I'm glad I'm not the only one 🤣
He doesn't look like him at all. More like Max Giesinger, a german singer.
@@axelfoley3376 How dare you insult Thomas comparing him to that untalented "singer"?
Today I discovered Glory Hammer, I think my life just peaked.
Oh, your life just started my dear
Welcome to Dundee! You're in for a treat!
Listen to "The Unicorn Invasion of Dundee", then it will truly peak.
Welcome :D
If u wanna meet our hero, listen to Angus McFife
9:55 Mighty Angus McFife expels coronavirus
Jajaja Que gracioso
Jaja c mamo
This is why the Intergalactic Great Empire of Fife never had to deal with this pandemic.
Angus McFife travels to the plague dimension to beat the shit outta coronavirus 2020 colourized
@@firstconsul7286 Fife also didn’t have to deal with COVID because it blew tf up in 1992
Kicking Angus out of the band was a big mistake. He's such a great frontman
@Eddie V Then why are you here? ;)
@Eddie V the only one butthurt is you
I mean it does leave some room for interesting things to happen story wise in the next album. Angus mcfife has died, who will be the hero in his place?
@Eddie V Don't be jealous because they're better than anything you like, regardless of their problems.
Somebody in this thread is a *"certified poser"* who praises true metal bands such as *Limp Bizkit.*
my god. his voice still sounds almost what its like in studio
Hope it's an irony!
that's called talent and discipline
Hmm disagree here. He totally lost most of his voice already, Some parts he will sing an octave lower compared to studio version.
@@KlabauterManiac Exactly, randomly he's screaming instead of singing.
@@KlabauterManiac he still put on a fucking beautiful show
Me: bored during quarantine gloryhammer concert: I can fix that
This is what happens when someone who wasn't able to get a ticket summons the wrath of the metal gods.
Things I never thought I'd hear at Wacken:
"Do you want to fly in a flying submarine?"
Thomas: "engage in nuclear force"
*points at crowd
Crowd: *chuckles "I'm in danger"
I watched it again now after a long time... I thought I got used to Sozos after seeing them live two times now but no... Tom fits so much better.
Tom fits so much better that the band had to rerecord & autotune his vocals for this show to sound good
@@user-qi1ll7bj3xczcams.com/video/Wmmbmo9Ii7c/video.html but here it sounds exactly like in the video and it's made with a smartphone from a random? You shure they were not just shitting on him for drama sake?
@@dpshadow7276 That was said publicly while Winkler was still in the band
@@dpshadow7276 Also there are several repeating clips in the video (the same guy crowdsurfing 2 times), some key vocal parts (like "Forged by ancient gods of warfare" bridge in Gloryhammer) are not showing Winkler singing. That's when lypsyncing was too obvious
That frontman looks like he can become the *Master of IKEA.*
Gloryhammer stands alongside Ronnie James Dio in being the only acts that can make unicorns and rainbows acceptable in heavy metal.
a unicorn is a muscolar horse with a weapon sticking out of its head.
i think its pretty fucking metal
It's clear that they're having fun on stage, and it's almost infectious. I love it.
except ben turk is dying inside
@@nicks.1001 why?
@@nicks.1001 He was allowed to unleash his missiles of nuclear justice just once the entire show :(
Me: Im gonna go sleep early now...
Also me: Oh nice! Gloryhammer!
Is it possible to find a god who both likes tf2 and gloryhammer
@@jolly9966 I like TF2 and gloryhammer
how do you know when you have an audience enraptured... 45:15 when they boo the guy pretending to be the bad guy even though hes in the band.
I mean, if someone called me unsightly twice in a minute, I would probably boo them too.
@@danielkrejcar9104 That's Proletheus, the champion of Crail corruptwd to become the leader of the death knights :D Yes, this is in the timeline. Yes, Gloryhammer songs have a timeline :D Zargothrax is the dude on kkeyboards (he's also the frontman of Alestorm)
@@Imurai I am knowledgeable of the Gloryhammer time-line, but thanks anyway.
That looks like wrestling haha
@@Imurai And also a bean connoisseur
I guess that takes part of the chorus "fireballs and lightning are raining from the sky" to a whole new level.
I imagine that fireballs and lightning were two different spells. Maybe Zargothax was practicing for Unicorn Invasion #2
@@firstconsul7286 yep. He probably is
If Dungeons and Dragons was a band, it would be Gloryhammer.
Dungeons and Dragons in space
Spelljammer
Or warhammer haha
@EmceeDoctorB Warhammer is pretty silly all things considered, it just takes itself a little too seriously though. This would be WH, if WH wasn't so depressing and serious all the damn time lol.
@EmceeDoctorB warhammer is silliness squared. Grimdark silly.
What I love is that you can see on his face how much fun the singer is having.
at 11:45 you can clearly hear Eluveitie playing "Call of the Mountains" on another stage. Oh, geez. Imagine being forced to choose between Eluveitie and Gloryhammer!?!?!?
😭😭😭😭
That is one of the times where I wish I could be in two places at once!
I choose Eluveitie because I had already seen Gloryhammer live twice and 3/4 into the performance the show got shut down due to an incoming thunderstorm...
@@robinliesens7983 aw, that sounds frustrating. I really want to see both. But, because I live in the US and not in a major metropilitan area I don't get the chance much.
Would be Eluveitie for me though. Took me a while to adapt to the new singer but I'm so cool with it now :D
Of all the Fantasy themed metal bands this is the high magic shit
"Aborted by Zargothrax' Evil Spell" Thank you Wacken ^^
Yes, nice description
or maybe Alestorm played right after wink wink Zargothrax had to travel back in time to become a Pirate captain ;) ah wait, its the Tour Zargothrax, not the Studio one ;) Chris isnt playing on stage there.
@@kodiak9869 Chris has stopped being involved with them at almost all level except songwriting. Barber does the rest.
This should have been at night, with a lightshow/lazer show :P.
Just imagine the laser lights going crazy during the song Hootsforce to simulate a battle
Oh that would have been awesome
That would be great
7:00 aw c'mon I wanted to see the bass player drink his beer while playing!
Also, shout out to the drummer for fixing his hi-hat clutch while playing at 10:40! I hate when that happens...
With Angus out of Gloryhammer, galaxy is in real danger now. Damn Zargothrax, he did it.
@@TheFrogChecker Everyone across the galaxy must know what is happened.
@@gabrielebacciali5510 your right everyone should know in the galaxy
I finally know the sound of an Astral Hammer being wielded in space, my life is now complete.
It's 9am on a lockdown Friday in a small town in Derbyshire on the edge of the picturesque English countryside. A 55 yr old man picks up his phone and taps the you tube app where he's greeted to the new day by this video. Never knew this band existed as I'm an old 80's greb. Loved it, such a a laugh and great fun. Thanks gloryhammer and thanks for uploading the vid.
Stay safe people!
The keyboardist from Gloryhammer (the evil wizard Zargothrax) is the frontman of a pirate-themed metal band called Alestorm, they're a lot of fun too!
Metal is for everyone! 🤘 :D
After the show ended we continued moshing and rowing and wall of deaths for another 10 minutes. That was a pretty great moment, even though everyone was a bit bumped.
I remember we sat down and started to row LMAO
YES. it was awesome when this random dude just starts running around yelling: "CIRCLE PIT CIRCLE PIT" and everyone just went along with it xD
Do you know why they had to end it
@@windsorsnake3694 Lightning storm sent by Zargothrax!
They really could have let em finish the last song. The storm was on the other stages
I loved this crowd. Even after the music we had a flippin party
It was truly awesome!
I suplexed someone from the inflatable sword side when they came to the unicorn side after the set got cut off from the thunder 😂💀
@@LockonStratous94 It was my friend :D He fought against the unicorns with his plastic sword haha xD It was amazing :D
Fantastic crowd for a fantastic metal band.
@@alienxxxxxx haha I was one of the unicorns!! We loved it when your friends attacked us with the swords!
He invented sound in space... truly a worthy king.
Thomas was the one who made Gloryhammer fame. I hope we will see him in a similar role. He is such a good Fantasy / Powermetal singer! I don't know if there are copyrights or something but why shouldn't he continue as Angus McFive? It would be the ultimate revenge against his former bandmates who kicked him out and we could still see him with his beautiful green uniform.
Agree, in my opinion, when a former band member drops out, it loses its essence...Thomas is amazing, and I hope to see him in future fantasy metal bands like this one. For me, Gloryhammer is dead.
Tom alias Angus Mcfife will apear on the new Grailknights Album. There is already a teaser out on CZcams
Apparently Thomas owns the rights to Angus!!
Now he is Angus McSix!
The singer has returned upgraded now as Angus McSix :)
When GloryHammer had a good lead singer
Still boggles my mind that Christopher Bowes is behind of this XD Dude is a genius
This is the first time I have seen ppl coming to a metal band concert bringing unicorns and even wearing them as a hood!
If they were not wearing black t shirts we could confuse it with some anime friends guys
@@SecretPesch lmao
They put on such a good show when the lead singer isnt so sick he is literally puking on stage and even then they were good
Where is he puking? Did I miss something 😅
@@MeisterOpfer from a different year they played there
Glory has left the hammer 👍🏻
The most epic mistake a band ever made!!
But he is back, one better!
BUT NOW HE WIELDS THE SWORD! OF PRIMAL, POWER, A LEGEND NOW HES REBORN!
Anus Mcsix fan moment
I clicked on this not planning to watch it all the way through, but here I am
I am thoroughly convinced that these guys have way more fun than any other metal band.
*Alestorm has entered the chat*
@@SgtLostSpartan one of Alestorm is already on the stage ("Zargothrax" is their lead vocalist)
@@Ravenscape60606 This isn’t Christopher. He hasn’t toured since 2016.
Gloryhammer tempted fate by wielding the Astral Hammer and summoned thunder from the heavens! And had to be closed down because German law forbids them playing in a thunderstorm.
What did we learn to do kids? Zargothrax is a German lawmaker.
It being happening during Gloryhammer was appropriate, but the whole festival shut down for about an hour
The same thing happened in Bulgaria a few months earlier. Gloryhammer's entire performance at the Hills of Rock was canceled because of a thunderstorm. Their fans were really angry. Luckily, we got to see them later, when they came with Powerwolf.
Silly Zargothrax, you were a part of this too! Your spell has backfired, you dastardly wizard!
Every time the camera shows the crow with toy swords and unicorns it makes me smile! This kind of energy is amazing!
The people with the swords are the reason I love going to Wacken
Quarantine just became 10000 times more epic 🖤
Love it. It's just plain stupid fun, in a good way. It reminds me a lot of professional wrestling in all honesty.
It's about crazy costumes and a simple tale of good vs evil.
Incredible show! And most unbelivable is that during the last show of the British tour in Dundee a blackout stopped Masters of the Galaxy at the same moment! The audience (including myself) finished the song shouting out loud!
It wasn't a blackout. It was the fire alarm going off.
Well go to a concert and not sing together is unnacceptable
Any video of that fact? Im curious ahaha
07:01 hootsman in problems XDDDD
Even the heart of a neutron star doesn't allow one to double wield the electric guitar and the drinks
Thomas has gotten better by every album! 💪🏼😎🤘🏼 He has such control on hos voice now!
Yup totally agree

his voice sounds just as good as in studio, amazing

This was such a special concert for me! My boyfriend has been going to Wacken every year since 2009. We met online and this was our first festival together! It was also the first time I heard Gloryhammer and they were very memorable- especially the fans, some of whom were drunk and shirtless riding on a unicorn inflatable after the concert ended abruptly due to the thunderstorm warnings (Kudos to you guys, you were AWESOME!). Either way, I am SO glad I learned about this band, they're my favorite, and I'm super happy to see Wacken uploaded the concert!! Hope everyone is staying safe and washing their hands!! Hoots! 🤘
Thanks for clarifying, I was trying to understand what indeed happened. They are always memorable live, saw them first time also last year in Graspop (just a filler between bands for me) and naturally they got me to watch them live later in Antwerp.
Drunk?? At a metal festival?? Well I never!!
@@nonameno2006 LMAO that's kinda to be expected when you got a huge beer pipeline going through the entire festival!

Man, I feel so sorry they had to cancel the show. The finale would have been so awesome. I both feel sorry for the audience and especially this amazing band. I´ve watched the full concert at least 10 times now because it´s just so much fun to see how much fun they are all having.
Hopefully - one day - I´ll be in Wacken myself. As a German, I HAVE to see this live, this is part of our culture by now :D
Do you know what it was that caused the show to stop so suddenly? Nobody else here had explained it

Why did they have to stop it
@@derchan6108 the video description says that it was an impending thunderstorm.
@@derchan6108 Thunderstorm
@@gildedbear5355 pfft. They totally could have finished the song.
@@guysmcfellas615 no they couldn't. I mean, they might have had time to finish the song but the guy who came on stage was very clearly saying "kill it now". don't know if he was a manager for the band or from the venue but he was definitely somebody who had the power to kill the show if needed.
My beard suddenly became 4737 times more glorious simply by enjoying this
Mine too! Sadly I don't have one and multiplying by zero is still zero
Everytime I hear this band from a live show or even when I see them live I get goosebumps as if it was my first time....
HAIL HOOTS!
“Yes, you have the drummer gig. But you’ll have to wear epaulets.”
Never heard of this band before. New fan here.
Welcome
A new hoot
Gloryhammer makes drinking beer the most epic thing I've ever seen!
I was crowdsurfing during Hollywood Hootsman 🤘🏻🤘🏻
I love everything about this: we got swords, we got unicorn heads, we got someone crowd surfing and entire Unicorn floatie, we got beer, we got costumes, we got some dude in a unicorn onesie, we got whatever the hell is going on in the crowd during the second half, this is an ✨Absolute Fucking Vibe✨
I'm also very excited for what Sozos will bring to the band. He has an incredible voice. Definitely not the same as Thomas but still incredible nonetheless and I think he'll bring something awesome to the band 🤘
I agree! What i love about Thomas is his ability to make his voice so pompous and huge and theathrical, while stilling crushing the high notes and wiiide vibratos. He has the package. Sozos seems to me to be abit soft and clear, BUT, i wont cast judgement before we/i get a real listen!
Have a good one!
I love how he just starts swinging his hammer around and just saying whoosh. I love Gloryhammer
Ok, that was a blast.
Band sounded great. But Angus is really awesome. Terrific frontman, his voice was on point.
47:08 I love the improv on the spot there when he had to cut the show short
I sat and listened to this with a huge smile on my face, Gloryhammer are just awesome, I have to see them live one day.
So many musicians take things so seriously... This is refreshingly wonderful.
Jesus.......these guys are amazing live.........
The heavy metal scene is having too much fun these days and the rest of the world needs to catch up.
Thomas Winkler has an absolutely amazing voice!
I dicovered this band today, and it make my day
Glad you join the Hoots
Welcome to Dundee
Anyone else notice the second "Defeat of the ancient town is nigh!"? A little oopsie there Angus, must be the work of Zargothrax!
He also used the wrong words in the bridge of Hootsforce before the key change
He's done that a bunch of times, at this point I don't think its a mistake. I remember Angus once mentioned that there were certain mistakes that ended up just being part of the show.
I may be in isolation and working from home but by the king did this bring a huge smile to my face.
Holy shit his voice even sounds amazing live unbelievable
This is exactly what I needed to lift my spirits. Thank you!
This is great live footage. Well done. Great band! Those drums sound great!!!
Great performance and very good mixing of that recording.
One of the funnest bands to see live these days. Twice this year, have tickets for a third show in June, but that's going to be cancelled/postponed...
Thanks for the upload, great quality!
Loved the watch. Thanks for the great opportunity, though sad to see it cut short!
Thank you CZcams. I missed them in America last year and needed this. Thank you WackenTV. And thank you Napalm
There's so much fun and joy in their performance. I love this band!
33:09 The Hootsman is so awesome even Zargothrax can't help but sing his praises
Thomas voice is so at it's top ! Love it, hoots !!
The upload of this is the best thing that happened in 2020. hail to hoots!
Best after show party ever. Still waiting to continue... :D
