The singer has a side project named "Gloryhammer". It's like D&D meets Power Metal. You should check out their self titled song.
or "Angus McFife", "Unicorn Invasion of Dundee", or "Rise of the Chaos Wizards"
Also check out - Land of the unicorns - GLORYHAMMER
The siege of Dunkeld
Or Hootsforce!
My son's 19th and 20th birthday presents were tickets to Gloryhammer shows. It's a fun, goofy band that is way too awesome.
Alestorm - F*cked With An Anchor next! 🔥Would be amazing 😂
Yessss
That song wins all the internets.
You're all C**T's. 😂😂🤘🤘
It's a song that will stick in your head!!
Yaaaassss!
Tank's bucket list:
1) Go to Wacken
2) Go to Wacken wearing a kilt because he's a proud half Scot.
If you ever go to Sweden Rocks festival they actually sell what they call a “tactical kilt” imagine cargo pants functionality but in kilt form,
EVERY crew member needs one for the “breathing”
You forgot the Great Highland pipe and Scottish whisky!
Random (Tank) Fact: None of the Alestorm members are Scots. A couple of them are Irish and the rest are from the Northern part of England.
@@leemoseley1120 oh I noticed one of them is a tyke being from there.
@@BurpleRX7 there's also an American company called Utilikilts, which is probably the same thing as the "tactical kilt", pretty much cargo-pants-as-kilt. They look pretty good on the men, too!
Sabaton did a vlog of the first leg of their The Great Tour. They give all the props to their stage crew. They get some face time in front of the camera. They show FOH, BOH, catering, and everything in between. With everything temporarily shut down, it seems to be the next best thing to being there.
That's awesome. Most bands I've worked for will always let them know they're appreciated, but few go out of the way to say it publicly or put them on camera. I'm not saying it's necessary or expected, but shows they REALLY care when they go out of the way to do that.
@@TankTheTech Check out the "Crewish" channel for Nightwish's response to their crew...
Got to watch "shipwrecked" or "keelhauled" by them!
Keelhauled is a ton of fun
yes man !! :D nice song i have been first listening from them Captain Morgan s revenge :)) good song to start with this
Seconded, they’re brilliant
I have the shittiest guitar cover on it on my chanel... But that song is the boss.
Yes! Keelhauled!
Two things:
Alestorm is absolutely a band that throws a party. For some odd reason they came to Bergen last year and played in a rather small club called "Hulen" (The cave) with a max capacity of 320 people. The stage was rather cramped and it was in the middle of the week, but Alestorm got the energy of everybody involved right up to the rafters. Air condition tubes were kicked and the atmosphere was wild. One of the better concerts I have been part of, even though I was sober due to having to drive home and go to work the day after.
Second part - I haven't been to many larger concerts, but the points Tank make about the crew and the roadies were very interesting. I will be sure to send them a friendly thought next time I attend a concert...
I recommend Wind Rose - Drunken Dwarves
and Gloryhammer live Wacken 2019
Wind Rose is underappreciated
Just found Wind Rose myself as well as Apocalypse Orchestra
Well, if you talk about Wind Rose I also heavily suggest "Diggy Diggy Hole" and "To Erebor" 🤘🏻
@@EnricoCicilloni Interestingly, Napalm just released a "dance mix" of Diggy Diggy Hole. Given that my musical tastes oscillate between Metal and EDM this made me laugh!
@@wmlye1 ahahah I've just listened to it, that made my day 😂
That show must have been epic. This is the type of band that just brings people together to have fun and I love them for that. BUT, I think they have a lot of musical ability and skill underneath all that fun. Great blend of both, I can't wait to see them live someday as I'm a pretty new fan.
It was, I was there. I loved every second of the show.
I did but I can´t remember much. Alcohol was strong at this night.
If you can't make the music, the rest won't work.
Aye, I've seen them 3 or 4 times, and each time, they're so good, and it's so fun rowing in the crowd
I have seen Alestorm and I had the chance to toss the duck. But its true there are so much people involved in a live show its plain amazing. Some bands hide or mask them. E.g. Sabaton dresses them up as soldiers and radioman, powerwolf dresses the up as monks so if they have to come out they seem as part of the show. "If a roadie is good you neither see nor notice him/her."
Shoutout to the invisible heroes that make our liveshows amazing 🤘🏻
TSO always has a "let's hear it for the crew that makes this show possible. Without them, there is no us" moment of applause from the audience in each concert. It's about halfway through the concert, during the "introducing the band" speech break.
(Trans-Siberian Orchestra)
Alestorm - "Treasure Chest Party Quest". They haven't had a chance to do it live yet, but the music video is weird as Hell.
Song is a cross between Van Halen and Weird Al Jankovic.
oh yes. this. very much this.
Great tune and hilarious video!
Sadly its boring af. They have so much better stuff.
@@janis4504 I mean that's part of the joke tho isn't it? Treasure Chest Party Quest is Alestorm going "let's make the most sellout song possible and laugh our asses off while making fun of rich sellout musicians."
Your eye for gear is amazing.
Fun reaction & change of pace.
During this tour I got to see them live in Denver and at the end of the concert they had the whole crowd tear the duck apart it was amazing. The day the concert was on was national Talk Like a Pirate day so there was a bunch of people dressed as pirates and the lead singer between songs alluded to this fact by saying in his word "Do you all know what day it is? Some shit about pirates or something. But more importantly its BUTTERSCOTCH PUDDING DAY!!!" then proceeds to pull out 2 pudding cups of butterscotch pudding and eats them with a fan in the front row while the band played What do you do with a drunken sailor in the backround.
Saw them way before they got big. They had just released the second album and was opening for Sabaton (who also wasn't that big then). Fun band 👍🏻
Saw Alestorm AND GLoryhammer together a couple years ago. One of the most fun shows i had been to in a long time. Alestorm has fantastic presence, showmanship and energy.
I've only just found your channel and seen two videos. I am loving them so far! The amount of info you add into the video about gear and crew is so fascinating. I'm really enjoying it. Also, seeing how much you're an enjoying a song is great. Keep it up. Alestorm and Gloryhammer are some of my favorite metal bands right now along with Nightwish.
Thanks a ton! Glad you’re enjoying it!
I saw Alestorm, Die apokalyptischen Reiter and Ensiferum at the same concert. It was just pure power and fun and I really hope to see these Bands again after we get to handle with Covid19 better than now
Aaahw... You missed the duck killing. You know, the favor he wanted to ask in the end. But I blame myself... Should've told you to play through to that...
But this concert was great! I've seen two show recordings recorded at 013 in Tilburg now (Kamelot - I Am the Empire being the other), and the audio was amazing in both. Kudos to band and crew for creating an amazing party here, and the crowd did help too.
For more Alestorm, Mexico is another one of theirs you should check out. Or Fannybaws, though there's no live video for that one yet I think.
I was at the Babymetal show at 013 early this year, it was literally days before the corona outbreak which started in Tilburg for the whole country.
Agree, it was good sound, I have to admit I wasn't listening for it specifically but I usually are pretty good at noticing bad things and definitely didn't notice any problems (unlike some other venues I won't mention right now). One of my theories why Babymetal choose this venue was because Judas Priest had started one of their famous tours from this venue (long time ago).
Turn on the subtitles for the Fannybaws video! Totally worth it!😂
Went to the fridge to get some beers. but it seems Alestorm robbed me
This is one of those songs that I think really would've benefited from a double reaction, as it's a short song and the official video is so incredibly fun! I encourage you to give it a watch if you haven't already.
seconded.
Thirdeded
All Alestorm should include the double react...however Magnetic North should be a triple react...Live/Video/Telephone.
This is why I like you channel. Your honest reaction and the background info are great. Never thought on how much effort went into all the stuff beside the music. Thank you, I really appreciate it.
If you have a bad day Alestorm should be on your mood music playlist!
I love how you used Sabaton in the last part 😍 gonna see both groups in the summer, they'll play at the Midalidare Rock festival in Bulgaria
I've gone to see alestorm everytime they've been to Toronto and they are by far the most fun shows I've been! Their new album is great because they really get silly with genre mixing
They are such great fun! First song I heard from them was Keelhauled and it still makes playlists for me now. And you are right it is a party, when I saw their set at download a few years ago it was a party with everyone having fun and no-one taking themselves seriously
Watched them front row at a festival a few years ago and it was the highlight of that festival. Brilliant.
Move love should be given to the roadies, they really do help the show be first class and safe. I love School of Rock film and it points out that all band need a great crew to really make the band's gig outstanding.
Thanks for the reaction. Good music. Fun to watch indeed. Watched the full concert a bit and this band just breathes "party!". Even if the music is not always my music I love it if a band interacts with the crowd and have them sing along.
another favorite band of mine. a friend of mine hosts a big bbq every summer. he lives by a river, and we float late morning as all the smokers are going. when i discovered this band....it has become tradition to have them playing as we are getting all the inner tubes blown up for the river float
Sounds like a great tradition!
I really like this format and this channel. Tank's facts and info are way more interesting than just a straightforward reaction video.
I would really love to see you reacting to Kamelot! Not totally sure if it is up your alley, but man do they kill it live. Their new dvd, I Am The Empire (also in 013 in Tilburg), has amazing quality and the band just kills it live. I would say Phantom Divine or Sacrimony is a good one to start with.
I suggested Sacrimony to Chase, so Phantom Divine (Shadow Empire) might be cool for you to do @TankTheTech...
Kamelot is a must watch
Liar Liar and Sacremoy
My first time seeing Alestorm was at Wacken in 2013. After the last song, the vocalist, Christopher Bowes, jumped into the crowd and crowdsurfed towards the Captain Morgan bar. The funny thing was, while I was walking away, a few guys suddenly ran past me towards the bar, carrying Chris Bowes and threw him over the counter.
Hahahahaha
They are so fun........ Many years ago 4 bands came to play on Mexico on the same night, one after another. Heidevolk Ex-deo, trollfest and the last one Alestorm... In the mid time between bands people went to buy beer and in one of those mid concert brakes, Christopher Bowes (alestorm vocals and keytar player), decided to go out and sit on a chair, no one paid attention to him.. But I keep staring at him and like a fool the only thing I said to him --- It is really you?? He answered -- yes it´s me-- That day he signed the cover oh my CD "BACK TROUGH TIME".
Tank, Alestorm and a bowl of breakfast cereal. A great way to start the day before work. :)
Ahhhh alestorm, there antics offstage shadow there antics on stage, once came across them in a festival camp site wellllllll beyond sober and they PARTIED HARD
I have also had to chase large inflatables, make sure giant robots don’t lose up and kill people, run spots, confetti cannons, mop up there’s a LOT going on on stage at any time
Yeah man. You are pretty spot on with all the gear and work it takes to keep that duck on the stage. It’s a fun crew to be on.
Much respect, dude! 🤘
Good and next should be the band
Gloryhammer (fantasy space power metal)
Wind Rose ( dwarven power metal)
Skalmold (its Icelandic stfu and listen to it)
Saw these guys live talked to wind rose, Skalmold, necrogoblicon and alestorm and they nice and a blast to listen to (and yes they had a duck at the concert)
my hometown venue, was amazing, seen them 5 times.... legendary
I remember seeing them on Grasspop metal meeting. The singer had a food poisoning. He went a couple of time off stage to puke his guts out. But they didn't stop, keep the party going. That's dedication for you man
Hell yeah. I’ve had to work shows through food poisoning and it SUCKS, but at least I was off stage. That’s definitely some dedication from him. Warrior mentality for sure.
@@TankTheTech You missed them tearing the duck down
In your free time, you should watch this entire show. It's so much fun and there's a ton more going on throughout the entire show. It's also great how much respect they have for their crew and how calm they are in their insanity. This show was practiced a ton before this performance and the team behind it executed flawlessly.
Great video tank, I love alestorm's music and I thoroughly enjoyed the fact you had ghost division playing in the background of your outro. Keep up the great work.
These guys just make fun music that makes you want to party. Enjoyed your facts and how you related some of what they were doign to your own time as Roadie. Great reaction, have a great day.
Making this show more awesome, and wondering their endurance as this is final show on tour. I saw this tour, Alestorm did the it with two other bands: Bootyard Bandits and Skálmöld in 11 countries and total 21 shows in about 3 weeks in central-northern-Europe. And all bands sounded great, hats off for management and crew.
Seen them three times, it's a very physical, demanding and dynamic show everytime..
Chanting all the lyrics, screaming the choruses, while headbanging and mosh-pitting is quite an experience !
Personal favorite song (and recommendation) remains Nancy the Tavern Wench.
I have seen them twice, and can confirm. Both times the next day was awful!!
Yes I love this band so much! Seeing them live and sitting down for a row on the floor is a joy to be involved with lol
After this, you definitely need to check out Wind Rose.
The most popular is probably "Diggy Diggy Hole" (which is awesome), but "Drunken Dwarves" might be my favorite.
Saw these guys on their Piratefest tour last year - fantastic fun surrounded by plastic parrots, cutlasses and three-pointed hats!
Alestorm - Keelhauled
Kalmah - Blood run cold
Insomnium - Ephemeral
In flames - The end
Heaven shall burn - Godiva
Parkway drive - Chronos
I had a good time when I went to an Alestorm concert. The singers other band Gloryhammer opened and it was pretty fun.
Loved these guys ever since I heard of them a few years ago
Alestorm shows are a huge party...even with only 30 of us at a Sunday night Vegas show that started at 11 pm
This was a blast and OMFG the duck 😍
You must watch this show in its entirety! LOTS OF FUN!
When you love what you do, what you do is fun, & fun is contagious. 😁🤘
I found this band accidentaly this summer and I like listening while working. Nice to see you did this band. 🙃
I got to see Alestorm And Gloryhammer for the first time back in November, and it was the most insane show I've been to, I don't think I'll experience a show quite like that again. I can 100% recommend seeing Alestorm live!
You know what’d be cool? I’ve seen this from a bunch of reaction channels, and would love to see your take on it: a battle of the bands video between Sabaton’s song “82nd All the Way,” and Amaranthe’s cover of it. In one video. Let’s gooooo.
I saw these guys open for Kamelot in a 200 person theater years ago. It was fucking awesome.
Hell yeah, love your reactions, especially how informed you are with gear, and you have an eye for production value.
Alestorm kicks ass, and their live show is to die for. I saw them with Gloryhammer, a band also run by Alestorm's Chris Bowes. They tour and collab a fair amount w/ members of Æther Realm as well (Yes I'm still shilling my boys).
I recommend Alestorm's Self-titled song, along with Gloryhammer- Siege of Dunkeld, and Æther Realm- Slave to the Riff.
I know Gloryhammer has been mentioned, so giving them a listen is a must lol
Something I would highly recommend you listen to is apocalypse orchestra - the garden of earthly delights. You would really enjoy this, especilly since they use a hurdy gurdy
As for another silly fun fun to check out is "energia by russkaja"
Apocalypse Orchestra for sure!
Omg! You gotta watch the music video! It is hilarious! And yes..., this is an excellent drinking song! Keep rockin’ it out! 🤘🏻❤️
Chris Bowes is also in a new band called WizardThrone. They just signed with Napalm records. Debut album is in the works so no music released yet. Can't wait for that to drop.🤘✌
Dude, how many bands is this guy in? Hahaha
@@TankTheTech as soon as WizardThrone drops the first single, you'll be the first one I let know.
You should listen to Running Wild for some vintage German pirate metal!
And Dropkick Murphys if you want to venture outside the metal territory.
Yes, Dropkick Murphys are also nice to listen to. Boys are back :-)
I had Dropkick playing in the intro to this video. 😎 Love em!
@@TankTheTech Then you might also love Pipes and Pints. A Czech band of a similar ilk..
I discovered them one year ago. And i love really this band. Their new album "Curse of the Crystal Coconut" is really really good. And fun of course.
Them and Storm Seeker are the two I think of for "pirate metal" fun song!
other honorable mentions : Rumahoy , admiral deathship, red rum , lagerstein and deathgrog.
I saw them live in December and I can confirm that the audio quality and mix is insane live! Whoever their sound engineer is deserves a raise because it just sounds perfect live!
Alestorm are so fun live!!! Seen them twice live and WHAT. A. SHOW!
about the sound engineering, the mix is done by lasse lammert . who also mixes their studio albums. Ive read him mentioning that he likes to capture the live vibe most of all, so on the dvd or album you hear their mistakes and fuck ups.. wonderfully produced all in all.
hail to the roadcrew!
Outstanding! Tank makes it tae Scotlands best export (Geddit?) since AC/DC. Follow up recommendation:
Fanny Baws from Curse of the Crystal Coconut. Utterly hilarious but rocking .
Dude i love your reactions! Its so nice to hear some facts in between or your insider infos.
Thank you!
That whole concert is a blast, i love everything about it. Also when you discover a band like this, it's also fun to realise that this is a genre: pirate metal. There are other bands like this too. We have many party metal bands in europe in a couple different genres. You could check out german medieval metal like Feuerschwanz - Das elfte Gebot or In Extremo - Herr Mannelig (live) or Saltatio Mortis - Rattenfänger (live wacken - sung complely while crowdsurfing).
I love their stuff, and this song is also amazing too, but I love Elliots screams and this song has none, also I don't feel he had too much of a part even on his keyboard on this song. So pls more
the last time they played at Wacken that duck was found two days later on the campground! Never seen happier campers! :-D
I've seen them live three times in Sydney. Their live shows are absolutely amazing.
I learned to respect the crew when I started putting on dinky little local shows with my own band in a venue we had to set up and run all our own sound in when I was a teenager. It was tiny, the largest show we ever put on might have had 100 people, and it was still a *shitload* of effort to keep things working smoothly. I don't even wanna think about how much work it would take to put on a production for an audience of thousands!
You have to watch the whole concert - these guys are one hell of a party from the beginning till the end ❤ no need for the rookies at Ballermann!
Man I can't wait for shows to happen again and for Alestorm to tour their new album!
I was at a show on that tour, was pretty epic! One full set from both Alestorm and Sabaton :D I even think the duck deflated itself a few times 😆
Gotta love a rocking metal band that features a keytar & chiptunes :)
They are a hell of a lot of fun, from start to finish!
Greetings from Finland! Alestorm is most likely the goofiest metal band in the world, but a highly skilled one. This live show at Tilburg was just great fun.
When I saw Alestorm a few years back at Wacken while playing on the Party Stage for the last song they sent one member (think it was the keyboardist) out on a inflatable boat and the singer screamed "Send him to the bar!" Opposite the stage was the Captain Morgan bar.
Also seen them on a cruise where due to a fire on a plane they missed the boat in Stockholm so they boarded in Finland and played on the way home instead of the way over, although the drummer and guitarist didn't make the boat so the bass player got to play the guitar for the show. They did rig the drums though but no one saw behind them.
They have always been a blast to see live when I've seen them and the audience partitipation is always high.
The first time I saw them was back in 2012, opening for Dragonforce. First I'd ever heard of them and they just were just incredible. At the end of the last song the singer threw himself into the crowd and guitarist told them to "take him to the bar!" so he crowdsurfed the entire way there
I also remember me and my dad meeting them at the bar afterwards, and when my dad said he was going to get their albums the singer told him to "just pirate them instead" 😂
All three times I've seen them have just been an absolute blast from beginning to end though, never a dull moment!
I was at that concert! :D It was awesome
University of Maryland had a metal club that I was a part of when I was in college and a bunch of people went to see Alestorm and ended up buying the Duck signed by the band after the show. We had it at parties for a while and I think my friend still has it somewhere
That’s amazing! Hahaha
Love this band. Local boys :p . Original members came from Perth / Dundee, practised at the same studio (stage 2k) a band I was in at the time used, we played with them once or twice, they have always been loads of fun, right from the get go :) regularly found touring with battlemetal bands - Amon Amarth and Tyr spring to mind. Check out some of their studio recordings, they are usually entertaining in their own right :) (I love keelhauled and Drink)
I've never seen these guys live. Looks like a lot of fun!
The singer is a funny guy. Theres a video where he sits at his dinnertable, calls napalm records and asks them to sign his plate of beans. Now exists a 5--song EP called Chrisopher Bowes and his plate of beans. Alestorm also recorded their whole album No grave but the see for dogs as bonus tracks. It's just what it sounds like, lyrics are replaced by dogbarks. Woof WOOF! Woof! There is also a song around called BEER BEER BEER with Korpilklaani featuring Chrisopher Bowes.
I saw someone mention Gloryhammer. Thats a really cool band. The lore is amazing. If you want more funny metal bands theres Nanowar of Steel, an italian metalbad. Alot of their song are in italian but there is also english ones. Valhallelujah and Norwegian Reggaeton for example. Also need to mention Wind Rose who recorded Diggy Diggy hole. Rock on!
I've seen them play in Glasgow (Scotland). They do indeed sound like that live, in person.
i love alestorm deeply, have done for years, know one of them personally, but live shows are more fun than a representation of what the songs really sound like :')
Saw them live with Skálmöld in Tampere last year. Such a fun night.
The first time I saw these live they were the main support for Turisas and I nearly knocked the singer flying while making a dash to the toilets at the Cockpit in Leeds.
for you watching this is like me going into a restaurant and pointing out how they prepare their seafood.. I worked for a fish-monger nearly a decade and basically became a part-time su-chef as a result of just constantly being around, learning about and prepping different kinds of seafood.
Well now I'm never not going to be looking for the Duck Guy! Good reaction guy.
Discovered Alestorm after discovering Jinjer and I absolutely love them. The music is fun as hell but really good too. Pirate metal drinking crew is my favorite video. You can see they’re just a bunch of goofy party guys making goofy fun music.
Hi Tank,
Very interesting reaction with cool things from your experience, thx a lot
Don't know if you seen it, 3 weeks ago on Napalm Alestorm relised a video for their song "Zombie ate my pirate ship" with footage from tour, a bit like Lion from the North of Sabaton
Could be really interesting to see with your tips as a Roadie !
I was there, my best show in years 🤩😁
Kind of on the opposite end of the spectrum there's Apocalypse Orchestra with one of their more well known songs Garden of Earthly Delights; cool video, good song, and funny comments
I have some suggestions:
Shit boat
Big ship Little Ship
Keelhauled
Shipwrecked
Nancy the Tavern Wench
Fucked with an anchor
Back through time
Mexico
Captain's Morgan revenge
Death throes of the terror squid
Also as a bonus track: Swashbuckle - Cruise ship terror
I saw these with Gloryhammer and the Bootyard Bandits all 3 were absolutely amazing live
I was at this show, most fun i've ever had!
Alestorm recorded in the same place as Kamelot filmed their DVD. Not sure if it's related, but hey, it's a nice venue.
KEELHAULED is a must although Nancy the Tavern Wench is a personal favourite! The duck cannot get used at every venue if the ceilings are short, like small North American clubs, which I learned last time. They still always have a fun show!
