- Sabatons song Blood of Bannockburn is about the First War of Scottish Independence and one of it's key figures, Robert the Bruce. He fought the English King Edward who invaded Scotland when Bruces revolutionary force forced all Scottish nobles to join his cause or lose their lands. Edward moved on Bruces army while they were besieging Stirling Castle, but his plans to overwhelm the Scottish was opposed by Bruce.

Hey!! We're leaving the modern times (which instantly that answers a frequently asked question about if we're just sticking to WW2) and will enter the Medieval Era. The 3d animated maps are made and researched by Eastory (check his channel here: czcams.com/channels/ElybFZ60Hk1NSjgCf7I2sg.html ). As the battle took place long ago, there is little documentation about it and there are several possible reconstructions of the events of the battle available. We had to prefer one version and proponents of others may criticise it. The most risky decision was to add the effects of land rise and make the Forth river larger as a result. This is absent from most of reconstructions, but Eastory studied some old maps and according to them the sea level in 15th and 16th centuries was far higher in the region.
Enjoy and STAY AWESOME! 🤘🤘

Superior "Battle axe to the face" tactic
I guess Blitzkrieg has competition
Even Blitzkrieg wouldn't be able to withstand a battleaxe to the face.
Driver! bring me closer, I wish to hit them with my axe!
kae tebi, gerilski rat najbolji :D
@@angieulaka Driver! Advance! I wish to get within arms length to that infantryman.
But sir that would expose us to enemy anti tank fire.
I don't care! I've heard in a reliable source in the form of a CZcams video that the "Battle Axe to the face tactic" is the best in any situation.¨
*Tank advances*
*Commander kills everyone*
*Victory...*
Omg lol
We don't deserve this channel, *WE NEED IT.*

Sabaton wearing Kilts is something I didn't know I needed untill I got it 😂😂😂
It's historical, so...
It's perfect
If you like Sabaton and you like kilts, you might want to check out a band called Skiltron out of Argentina. Some of their songs also have a historical inspiration and they're named after one of the battle formations famously used by The Bruce during his fight against England!
@@SabatonHistory wearing kilts for a song about Bannockburn isn't historical, you may have been watching too much brave heart.
The kilt first appeared in the 16th century. Bannockburn occurred in the 14th century. Loyal Piper is correct. _Braveheart_ is fun as an adventure film, but is woefully inaccurate about history.
infinity war was the best crossover
me an intellectual: how about sabaton history
Infinity war ain't got nothing on this.
BOOM YES !!
people: Bagpipes can't sound good
Sabaton: Hold my beer
Who said that?
Bagpipes make everything better
@@dersaegefisch indeed
@@kawg5320 A lot of people hate the sound of bagpipes. at least where I'm from.
@@shiftydog6969 They're better in an ensemble than on their own I guess
WOOOOOO THIS IS HOW YOU TEACH HISTORY
Better than the American school system
@@jacobnugent8159 let's be honest, it's not hard to be better than the American school system.
I can listen to these guys talk all day
Lol, I misread what you said so in my mind i saw: "I can listen to these guys tank all day"
+Castro6967 Joakim = Tank so that checks out. \m/
Agreed
I was surprised when i saw Joakim . He doesn't like cameras very much.
He loves metal and history though, so he was excited to be in the studio for this 🤘
Ok, so... I don't know how I missed the World War Two and The Great War channels... CZcams likes to recommend me random shit but never mentions those channels, alright...
Better late than never, right?
Don't worry Rafa, I'm in the same boat with you.
You've got a lot of glorious catching up to do
Good to see someone new discovering those series! :D
Unfortunately I think youtube is trying to promote (actually no they straight up are) either harmless content (absolutely nothing controversial as to stay "sanatized") or content from big media pundants. Just look at their trending tab, and you'll either see some of the most vapid shit on the site or crap from CNN or SNL. Guys if I wanted either of them I'd turn the TV on......
When I saw it was from the medieval period I was like " oh it's the medieval period I am not that energetic about the period" but when I watched it I got energetic about it instantly
Cause it's fuckin Sabaton
And Scotland
And freaking bagpipes
Indy doing a Scottish accent is something that I didn't know I needed.
“Alas I’ve broken my good axe”
Alas: again? Seriously?
Well, that's better than losing the axe right? he knew exactly where it was ...planted firmly in Phils Bonce!
Love this! This is more than I expected!
Thank you!!!
It's a decent song but it feels too much like metal brave heart.
How is this comment a day old when the video only came 5 hours ago?
@@Orculeariswithlord patreon maybe
@@loyalpiper It's in the major key!!!! That's why its sounds like that!
“Oh flower of Scotland,
When will we see
Your like again?
That fought and died for
Your wee bit hill and glen
And fought against them
Proud Edwards army,
And sent them homewards
Tae think again!”
: )
I've genuinely learned more history from Sabaton than my actual school
Same here. When I was in school, they still taught us that Poland just rolled over when they got invaded. Then I listened to 40:1 and had to look it up to learn the truth. God Bless Sabaton!
M.D.M school history: Poland was steamrolled by Germany
Sabaton: THEY LASTED FOR 3 DAYS 40:1
+Yolo533 Yep that's what I got for an '80s education. I was in 9th Grade when the Berlin Wall came down.
they lasted more then Denmark did@@yolo5339
The channel we need, but not the one we deserve
"The lazy bastards"
Love it!!!
They’re still looking for a permanent singer
Hahah even Indy cant resist to do scotish accent
Humm he did Mell G's accent quite well...
Some day I will be able to show this channel to my children, look into the distance as the Sun sinks beyond the horizon and say "I was here from the beginning."
This channel is like drugs.
You didn't know you needed it until you tried it...
And you can't stop
This is better Than drugs though. Dont do drugs
Do Sabaton and Sabaton History
This song makes my blood boil with excitement every time I hear it! Thank you for an amazing song!!!
Last stand is my favorite album!!!
Haha, awesome! Thanks!
I mean theres so many great ones Heroes, Last Stand, Carolous Rex, would be my top 3 can't choose a favourite.
SAME ME TOO
Its my favoriete album and it was the first album i heard of sabaton
Indy’s occasional switch to a scottish accent is just * chef’s kiss *
Joakim is the Dragonborn.
Change my mind.

Closer to "bard of the Winterborn."

I am happy Sabaton never found someone else to be the main singer.
One of my favorite songs to play while doing archery.
Here's a short list of things I love
1. Indy Neidell
2. Sabaton
3. Learning about history
Combine it together to get the perfect CZcams channel
Damn, this is good.
Oh yesh yeah
Why is everyone using that profile photo?
@@ezequielmorales4221 Check out MaximillianMus channel. And watch "we take over youtube" and then "Lets take over the internet"
@@ezequielmorales4221 oh yeah yeah
Ozegovich Oh yeah yeah
This is my valantines gift
I feel you bro. 😐
:( now i need to wait another week
To quote Al Murray
"You say Bannockburn, I say Culloden. It ain't the heats that matter, mate. It's the finals."
For real though, Bannockburn was a textbook example of brains over brawn, imo.
My history teacher keeps asking why I know so much about old battles and such, I told him a metal band taught me, he laughed and said he would like to see that. It’s been 4 days and he still asks what Sabaton songs I recommend...
haha that's amazing!
Teaching history with classes in school *Not agreeing Drake*
Teaching history with Sabaton *Agreeing Drake*
Long Bows didn't so much destroy the French Knights as it wreaked their horses not the riders on them. The numbers of prisoners taken at Agincourt speaks to the effectiveness of full plate armor. Their poor horses on the other hand ;_;
F
And the poor guys who didn’t have plate armor or had crappy visors
That the english murdered their prisoners at Agincourt didn't help the prisoners much either =P
Master Skywalker, there’s too many of them! What are we going to do?
*ignites lightsaber
The horses would be doing fine if they werent slowed down by defensive structures and mud, it was quite crappy place to start cavalry charge.
Never knew Joakim could play the organ

Another fun fact (according to my pa) to add to this: Robert the Bruce was the one who coined the phrase "If at first you don't succeed, just try, try again."
When he was first defeated, as mentioned in the video, he hid in a cave, where he saw a spider in the corner, trying to build a web. It was trying to jump from one point to the next, but kept calling. However, the spider kept climbing up the wall to keep on trying until finally, it made the jump and completed its web. Because of this spider, Robert the Bruce realised that just because he failed once didn't mean he should give up for good.
But like I said, this is according to my pa.
I did a speech at a speech festival about the Bruce/spider story! I won gold for it!
Fun facts, Scottish army didn't use kilts and blue war Paint during Bannockburn, that's a stupid creation of Hollywood's brave heart, they look more like the bloody picts the Romans fought near a millennium earlier, their army in reality was more like the English with spearman, not a table of farmers.
Of course, the Kilt was a tradition later invented and applied to Scottish culture retrospectively. Sad how one movie's representation has that big of an impact on how the majority of people view history.
Um, don't you mean a _millennium_ earlier, or did the Romans come back for a bit of a rematch in the twelfth century?
@@robashton8606 yea, spell check literally hates me.
@@loyalpiper
It must do if it changed a misspelling of millennium into century.
You mean the Gauls?
Damn, Joachim doesn't skip leg day...
"And got his army rekt during the battle of Methven!" My goodness that had me laughing hard thanks to the Scottish accent. I didn't expect such a twist.
We demand to hear Joakim's demo tapes! :D
"They may take our lives, but they'll never take our freedom!"^^
This is a beautiful way to learn history. On my way to become a historian
Right on! Keep it up!
As a father and history buff, I find your music a great way to spark an interest in learning history. Well, done keep up the great work. TheCreedEvolution Keep working towards your goal, "Those whom do not learn from history, are destined too repeat it." Remember historians are the guardians of a civilizations roots.
The quote actually is 'Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it', but thanks for sharing nevertheless ;) Thanks for the support and we're glad you like it!
One of my friends: Britain is unbeatable.
Me: Laughs in Robert the Bruce.
I was literally listening to Sabaton on CZcams when I saw this, I was like OH GOD YES
Joakim attempting to look up someone's kilt is literally the funniest thing I've seen in ages.
As someone just discovering Sabaton who grew up in Bannockburn, I absolutely love that this song exists
Proud to say my dad was Scottish born in October 1937 in Dumbarton, Scotland he served with the Royal Air Force in the 1950s. So this song makes me proud as a part Scottish man
Great song and history I live 2 miles from Bannockburn. Please go and visit the Bannockburn museum loads of history and u get to see what the battle was like in 3D with arrows fling past you horses everywhere war crys it's unbelievable...
I keep hearing Bruz instead of Bruce and cant help thinking "I don't want the fort, you can have the fort" from Middle Earth : Shadow of War
Everybody knows Joakim plays the keyboard! Who else would start playing "I will survive" in the middle of the concert?
Hmm yeah, who else would do that...? [everyone looks at Joakim]
@@Sabaton XD
Metal, history and Braveheart . Is there anything better than that ? I think not .
why is this not a tv show, this is brilliant.
Because an online show is cooler - thanks for the support!
Love you Sabaton, love you Indy, greetings from Serbia ❤🤘
Talvisota
White Death
Soldier of 3 Armies
Songs would be amazing to get, greetings from neigbourhood Finland!
Soldier of 3 Armies should be first. Everyone (who follows this channel) already knows the back story behind the other two.
@@romaliop I agree, "Soldier Of Three Armies" is such an amazing story!
Victor Cabanelas Long live lauri
The last battle would be great as well!
2/3 through!
Hung drawn and quartered ... they displayed his body parts to stop people from rising again. Theres a legend about bruce and the spider in a cave while he was hiding from the English. The spider kept failing to build a web.. but kept trying. Supposedly this is what inspired bruce to keep fighting no matter how many times he failed.
Apparently, there were from 29 to 43 Knights Templar on Bruce's side during the battle too, which just makes this 1000x more awesome than it already is!
Even though I'm English, my Scottish blood loves the story behind this song! I'm going to have to find a way to get this channel into my history lessons.
Very band plays, but not every band truly rocks.
Inspirational words from Indy: “You’ve rocked with Sabaton, now rock with me!”
Thank you Sabaton for delivering this to some that may not know the true story of this prolific moment in Scottish history
Watched the "Art of War" video last night, and I'm here now listening to how Bruce outmaneuvered the English nodding my head like I know battle tactics all of a sudden.
I love this channel so much
Thanks :)
Once again I find myself enjoying history more than ever with Sabaton and friends
Although the main ending of The Great War channel (for the actual war) was pretty sad, this new channel is great. Indy teaming up with sabaton? AMAZING.
It just reminded me that when I was swearing my oath as a german soldier, the song played before the ceremony was "The march of Robert the bruce". It was a few weeks ago and you just reminded me. Thanks, Sabaton!
Congratulations! You're very welcome!
Still one of my favourite Sabaton songs of all times :))
:)
Thank u for telling the History of my homeland for what we have fought for. God Bless Scotland!
One of my top 5 favorite songs! Fun fact from me, after winning Stirling castle and becoming king of Scotland, one of my ancestor's actually put the crown on Robert the Bruce!
Wow it's amazing that you can track your family back to that time. I envy you. All I got is some potato farmers in the 18th century.
Pommey: charged with lance. Bruce: parry this you filthy casual!
This channel is the only thing more awesome than a new Sabaton album would be! *Wink*
And Indy doing a scottish accent is beautiful.
Its a shame Braveheart didn't do Robert The Bruce Justice.
It didn't do anyone justice....
True, but there's a movie on Netflix about Bruce that's pretty great
@@peterjaremsek1066 I heard but I don't have Netflix
Watch the outlaw king on Netflix,it's on the bruce
Didnt he betray william wallace in braveheart or his father did the scean where wallace is taken is when he goin to meet the bruce. But robert had no idea i would guess cause he screamed to wallace run!! But prio to that the bruce was on the English side in one of the other wars. Wallace escape that im just speakin in the movie braveheart i have no idea how it really went down in history
From stirling castle you can see bannochburn its basically the castles back garden.
need to get this in schools - teaching by song is a powerful tool especially when there's an explanation behind it. looking forward to seeing more and keep up the good work in both the song and the story!
🎼The hills are alive 🎶 with the sound of music 🎶🎵
With songs🎵they have sung 🎶for a thousand years....
... OK I'll leave now 😑
Next one: last dying breath.
We have another exciting one lined up for you ;)
First I translate the vídeo to portuguese so it speakers who don't know english can watch, then I watch the video, always!
Awesome! Thank you very much!!
Why not do Portugese Subtitles?
i am a huge fan of history, metal and Sabaton. This series is just the ticket for anyone who wants to learn more about the meanings of these great songs. Please come back to Canada soon.
Yes!!!! CANADA NEEDS TO SEE SABATON!!!!
Has anyone else noticed that there isn't a dust cover on the otherwise beautiful Kalashnikov in the background?
Longshanks had the longest of shanks when it comes to the 13th-14th century.
This was awesome! A bit late to the party, I know but better late than never! I love Scottish history and I've visited Stirling Castle twice, this song really takes me back to those times. Also, Joakim never fails to put a big smile on my face. "Lazy bastards"... I laughed so hard. :D
P.S. I *hate* pushups but I was almost tempted to drop and do 20 there at the end. :P
Like that he became the singer while they were looking for one :D
OH MY GOD, YES! I'm a descendent of the Campbell Clan and my ancestors fought in Bannockburn. I LOVE Sabaton and this series is sorely needed! I am so excited to see this made!
Awesome! Great heritage and awesome to be aware of it :)
@@SabatonHistory I'm also looking forward the the episode with the song Screaming Eagles because my Great Uncle, Edd New (may he rest in peace), fought at Bastogne during World War II.
Can you make a video about the battle of Teutoburg forest?
Absolutely love this song, being a Scottish History nerd who listens to metal. Great Job!
Awesome! Thanks!
Being single on Valentine’s Day was starting to get to me but seeing that a new sabaton history video come out made me feel much better
Fuck Valentines (though the history behind that guys is pretty cool)
Blood of Bannockburn, only major key Sabaton song... *Plays Ballad of Bull and cries*, seriously though, thank you Sabaton for this series!!
Who else did twenty push ups when he said? "on the ground give me 20"
Joakim gives an order, I follow it.
Could you employ somekind of voting system on the songs you are doing next?
That might come in the future, but at the moment our planning horizon doesn't allow for it. We record these in bulk, so we have to plan about two months ahead of time. Shorter planning horizon makes it more expensive, but once our support on Patreon grows we might be able to do something like that.
@@SabatonHistory I don't care how you do it so long as you guys keep doing it as I've been watching Sabaton history since I found it at this video. I've heard 1 to 3 songs of yours didn't know who you guys were till I heard the story you guys based No Bullets Fly on. I'll admit not all your songs are to my liking but the history of what they based on is very much interesting, once my financial situation improves I'm going to donate on patreon!
Add on I rewatch the Sabaton History playlist at least twice a week!!!
I gotta say, not only do I totally dig the history aspect of this series but also - as a metal fan anyhow - Sabaton and their music becomes more and more something I totally dig as well. Great format!
Thanks! Rock on! 🤘
No one can defeat the "battleaxe to the face" tactic!
German Shovel fat boi: Hold my beer.
9:43 *IN THE NAME OF CAROLUS REX!*
great video. I love the English/Scotish history. During my studies I have heard a lot about english culture but not that much about history (I study English and History to become a teacher) and I like the way Mr Neidell explains the events of that special time, with a lot of details and very passionated. It's funny to know that Joakim hasn't been destined to be the singer, so that it was just by accident so to say xD I'm excited which song will come next, I hope Carolus Rex
Thanks for the support! I'm glad you like it! The next one won't be Carolus Rex, but it WILL be AWESOME! 🤘🤘
I can’t get enough of Sabaton! I feel so ashamed that they were recommended to me THIS YEAR!! I hadn’t heard anything from them before, nor did I know that they existed! It was so embarrassing! But now I’m a huge fan of them and I’m proud! I guess I did get something good outta 2020 huh?
I can't believe that a metal band has its own history channel. This is fucking fantastic
🤘🤘🤘
Love these series!!!
Can't get enough of it.
Can't wait for next week's episode.
It's going to be really cool!! I bet you'll love it.
Sabaton! Again, you guys are so amazing! Rock on my Swedish Fellas - Michael 🤘🤘🤘
Video every week? A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one. Thanks Sabaton History!
Joakim, you f*cked up. Now we have no choice but to go look for that demo.
Love to see it. Much love from Scotland
Great video and collaboration!
Commenting just so youtube will recommend this channel to others
Well thanks!!
Very late to this but I've known for some time now that I am a direct descendant of Henry de Bohun who is probably the most "(in)famous" person from my family tree, and I have a plate depicting Humphrey de Bohun, the 4th Earl of Hereford in 1322 with my coat of arms. It's a little surreal knowing that my own family came *that* close to killing the king of Scotland in this battle.
You know, an interesting tidbit is that theres many artistic depictions of Henry and Robert's duel but a lot of them can't seem to decide what the coat of arms actually looks like for the Bohuns. There should be a white diagonal stripe in the middle, but some depict it as red. Theres even one painting where its straight up the incorrect coat of arms. You can even see this in the video when Indy is talking about this duel, the first image popping up has the incorrect coat of arms for Henry on the shield, but the one after it where his head gets the coconut treatment has the correct coat of arms on the shield.
