Just some info for non-Italians: -Polenta taragna is a type of polenta, they obviously mixed it with Ragnarok because Vikings are cool -Giorgio Mastrota is a famous TV host who mostly sells stuff. Nanowar also dedicated a whole song to him some years ago, thanks to which they did a few things together (for example, he sang his own song live with them). He's not a singer at all anyway -At the beginning, when they talk about polenta, it's a parody of Linea Verde, a TV program about typical food around Italy. Here it is called Valtellinea, which is a pun mixing on Linea Verde and Valtellina, a valley in Northern Italy where polenta taragna is a traditional dish. -Valtellina is also mentioned in the chorus as Valhaltellina, an obvious reference to Valhalla -Volcano of Trepalle: Trepalle is a town on the Alps and it's also at the highest altitude in al Europe. Its name is kinda funny in Italian, as it literally means ThreeBalls -South Tyrol is a region in Northern Italy, while Sondrio is a city in Lombardy -When they say "the abuse might cause the pellagra disease" it's actually true. On the other hand, the part about viagra it's not, sorry about that -Como Drake: in Italian it's "Drago di Como", which is a pun on Lago di Como (Como Lake) -When Giorgio Mastrota says "Mr. President? Mr. President?" to Gandalf, it's a reference to an iconic Italian TV moment in which politician Giulio Andreotti had an ischemia and could not answer the host's question, who unsuccessfully tried to call him a few times before realizing what was happening -Mid-Garda Lake: a pun on Lake Garda and Midgard -Cedrata Tassoni is a cedar beverage which used to be vary famous, which recently became even more famous thanks to vaporwave and memes. Yeah, seriously. -When Giorgio Mastrota says "F#ck it's very good", he says it in Brescia (another city in Lombardy) dialect -The falsetto parts are a reference to a famous Italian pop song, "Su Di Noi" by Pupo. "Su di noi nemmeno una nuvola" (above us not even a cloud) here became "su di lei ci metto la provola" (on her I put Provola cheese) Hope I didn't forget anything 😀

[@ThomFoolery1]

Oh wow, thank you for the detailed and fascinating information! I only picked up on the Como Drake joke. The rest I did not know so now I can watch it again. Grazie! 😄🤘

[@TheGhisa96]

To be specific polenta does not cause the pellagra disease, but, since it was a very simple dish (only water and corn flour, polenta taragna has cheese added to this mix) it was very common for poor people or farmers to eat polenta 6 days out of 7 if not every day. The lack of meat and fish caused lack in some vitamins which led to this particular disease. And to be fair, when you eat it on a winter sunday, with some veggies and meat, or in a mountain refuge after a good hike on the alps, it kinda gives you the effect of Viagra

[@MarcoBertazzo]

Also when Gandalf (Mr Baffo) starts to sing, it actually is Cedrata Tassoni’s Commercial reference “Quante cose al mondo puoi fare, costruire, inventare… etc”

[@doc7440]

mixed with ragnarok and cheese and butter .. a lot of , really.. a lot .

[@MrLordKaen]

Precisazione sul "pota è bona fes". il dialetto è quello di brescia. Il "fes" a bergamo non lo dociamo. :)

[@neffscape6353]

Polenta taragna is a traditional dish of northern Italy, made of polenta, butter and melted cheese. It's a heavy and nordic dish... Pretty much like this song, actually. Giorgio Mastrota is the king of italian TV sellers, an icon of trash TV. Nanowar wrote a funny song about him in the past and Mastrota was so proud about the song that they decided to bring him back in this song that starts with Mastrota himself selling Polenta in one of his TV shows. He's actually singing in the song, so kudos to him for this great performance :)

[@marioguidotomasone1265]

When you asked if Giorgio Mastrota is an opera singer/callsicaly trained singer I alomots fell oh tne floor

[@ThomFoolery1]

I understand 🤣🤣

[@duikmans]

They're actually selling this polenta now...

[@ACR-CultureLearning]

out of stock ( T . T ) I was late, sigh!

[@89lozzi]

Giorgio Mastrota is the Italian Billy Mays

[@christiansandrini96]

The fact that they always manage to produce songs like this even though this is not their main job is astonishing

[@elendilnix]

The Norsemen from whom the Vikings derive were not the only Odinist group, all the Germanic peoples had the same religion. He remembers that the Valtellina is in Lombardy, which means land of the Lombards. Origo gentis Langobardorum and taken up by Paolo Diacono in his Historia Langobardorum, he writes that the Lombards were originally called Winnili and lived in Scania (one of the traditional provinces of Sweden). Under the guidance of the brothers Ibor and Aio, sons of Gambara, they migrated southwards, on the southern shores of the Baltic Sea, and settled in the region called "Scoringa". Legend has it that the leaders of the Vandals begged Odin to grant them the victory, but the supreme god said that he would decree success to the people who, on the morning of the battle, he would see first. Gambara and his children instead resorted to Odin's wife, Frigg, who gave them the advice to show up on the battlefield at sunrise: men and women together, these with hair down to the chin as if they were beards. As the sun rose Frigg caused Odin to turn to the Winnili's side and the god, when he saw them, asked, "Who are those with the long beards?" To which the goddess replied: "Since you have given them a name, you also give them victory."

[@lacittadellamedievale8492]

the valtellina valley is located in the region called Lombardy which historically takes its name from the people of the Lombards. the Lombards are called this in honor of Odin (Langbard is one of his names) so we are Vikings at heart! 😜😅

[@damianoferrario4330]

Giorgio mastrota is an italian tv showman and he is also the one to whom they dedicated their song "Giorgio Mastrota, Keeper of Inox Steel".

[@alessandroparma6297]

just to add another point that perhaps someone missed: in the minute where Gandalf enters the scene, is a clear reference to the video of warriors of the world united by manowar, in the verse in which eric adams sings "in the clouds"

[@antonioscendrategattico2302]

Incidentally, the beginning of the verse about Cedrata Tassoni is a parody of one of the most famous ads for that drink. As with all of their songs, this one is full of little in-jokes about Italian pop culture that's just too silly to ever reach foreigners :D

[@andreajuanitodicandia5186]

I've always thought that my native language (italian) was not suitable for metal... then I listened to Nanowar of steel and I realized I was very very wrong... magnificent! By the way, great reaction!

[@NeonGeminis]

Hey, I just discovered that band in 2019! Spotify did his job well, I love them.

[@CapFabioLan]

Ehi Thomas, you have to know that Giorgio Mastrota, keeper of Inox steel, is a famous seller who works on Italian television since long long time. This why you see in the video that he’s always followed by his crew, with cameras and microphones... Anyway, congrats for the channel and greetings from Italy 🇮🇹

[@ThomFoolery1]

I would buy anything from Giorgio 😂 Grazie mille!

[@CapFabioLan]

@@ThomFoolery1 it’s a pleasure!

[@music2seeconcertphotograph457]

They are really awesome and combine terrific humor with great humor in an incredible way.

[@giovannicella7817]

Come on Thomas! Come in Vahaltellina and enjoy some polenta taragna(rock!) And sciat's! Places are wonderful, weather too! And than Vahaltellina wines! ... aniway, people! (we) are unusual, but kind and funny! Be prepared to enjoy yourself! 😁

[@AndreaLuigelli]

ZERO dislikes.

[@robyfiorili]

Every time I go to San Pellegrino Terme (known worldwide for the San Pellegrino mineral water), in Val Brembana, I go to eat at La taverna della Taragna (The Taragna tavern). Great cooking

[@AlexWesterd]

Italian proud

[@ACR-CultureLearning]

Best reaction ever! Only one suggestion: Do not drink water after polenta or the mix will become heavy in the stomach: you might feel like if you need to digest some sort of reinforced-concrete. Did you react also to "Der Fluch des Kapt’n Iglo" (German with english subs?)? Have a nice day!

[@FullMetalGatto]

there's a fun stuff about polenta: in italy there's a pun sayinh "polenta: presto tira e presto allenta" ... that because as soon as you eat it became so hard to digest, but when it's done ... be sure your bathroom (or tree 🤪 ) is free 😎

[@danielemasseglia434]

Another masterpiece from the craziest italian metal hand 😄🤘

[@imieicolori]

Hi from Italy! Nanowar are so great, and polenta taragna too. I advice you to consume the dish with cheese and butter. Mix it after cooking the polenta...you will enter Valhalla! 🤘

[@bazkeen]

Just love these guys. Sooo much fun Great reaction Thomas

[@andreasschon9903]

Dude I must watch Gabonzo robot by them it's hilarious

[@rolandmertens1604]

Hey Thomas, really enjoyed this one! The music, the lyrics, the video, even Gandalf dropped by, haha! Must be one hell of a dish! Nice one, keep it up mate!

[@balininkada]

Aman Tanrımm...Bayıldım👏👏👏👏 Çok iyi 🤟🤟 Türkiye'den Sevgiler 💖 👋👋

[@Ilethsamael]

the chorus is soooo catchy and cool :o

[@robyfiorili]

Cedrata Tassoni (Cedar Sip) is an historic beverage producted in Italy since 1886

[@andrewmiller4895]

Te lo dico in Italiano,Giorgio Mastrota è un famoso Televenditore abbastanza storico per chi ha vissuto gli anni 90 quando ancora internet non era presente come cultura.è il vecchio amazon in tv in poche parole.Poi si noi Italiani del Nord abbiamo di cultura come cibo la Polenta

[@damianoferrario4330]

Ps Cedrata Tassoni is an awesome soda!

[@robyfiorili]

The Polenta Taragna is also a typical dish of Val Brembana, a side valley of Valtellina (connected to it by the Passo San Marco) and it is made there with Branzi's cheese.

[@angiewegenerdjmetalamazon4468]

Love your reaction. I actually bought some polenta taranga after I had seen that video. :D

[@ThomFoolery1]

Nice! Did the dish live up to the legend? 😄

[@quiricosolinas7876]

Great job

[@giovannicassani9987]

I think the main poin of the song is like celebrate foods and traditions of northest parts of Italy, in contrast with the more internationally known ones from middle-south Italy (Pizza etc...), but they went like "too much north" and they become nordic vikings.

[@user-vd7hf1kl6m]

first time hearing this song, like it! Sounds great. Well, now let´s continue the party!! Highly recommend you to check out the band "WE BUTTER THE BREAD WITH BUTTER" with their brandnew song "20 KM/H" party crasher, so fun!!!

[@wingedHussar353]

Mate try polenta with cheese and northern Italian salami, and right after you'll be done, when your arteries will be blocked by the amount of grease and fat, you'll fully understand the use of Cedrata Tassoni. It will literally bring you back to life. Great video indeed.

[@ThomFoolery1]

Sounds like a good way to go! 😄

[@aftermax01]

@@ThomFoolery1 when Giorgio says "Presidente, Presidente" to Gandalf, it's a reference to an interview made to a Republic president in the past, where he froze and the journalist tried to "wake him up" Also, there is a musical "mashup" with: Su di Noi, a song by Pupo

[@matt_it1990]

Man you mussed so much inside jokes😂😂😂

[@SirtaoEsposito]

Now you need to make a video about you trying to cook Polenta

[@ThomFoolery1]

I would probably mess it up.😂

[@user-lb4cw5ow3c]

ммммммммм волльде

[@quiricosolinas7876]

Definitely this is an Italian album. It is full of Italian cultural and musical references, jokes, regional and age stereotypes that make translation very complicated. But as an Italian I feel I can say thank you for remembering that every cultural environment has its merits. For the rest, since there is a song about my region, Sardinia, the song is L'Assedio di Porto Cervo. Sardinia is a region famous for a wonderful sea and for extremely expensive areas, suites in extreme luxury hotels can cost 35k dollars a night and in the song at one point a voice with a typical Sardinian accent says something like "Billionaire, your yacht, stick it to my cock, you are just a vain whoremonger".

Buona la polenta taragna! Oltre che col mais 🌽 è fatta anche con il grano saraceno. Giorgio Mastrota è stato un presentatore televisivo e negli ultimi tempi si è dedicato alle televendite televisive

Maybe you should know that before the Roman expansion most parts of Northern Italy were inhabited by celtic tribes. Many archeological remains of celtic settlements have been found (often beneath old churches). If you have time and are interested you can read some more information on Wikipedia. So.. Scottish and Irish people have "Italian" origins... 😁 It is true. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cisalpine_Gaul
