[@michaelknoll8435]

What I love about this band is that they have fully embraced the cheesy nature that power metal can have and made amazing music to go with the cheesy concepts. I do not actually consider them a parody band as they are clearly fully committed to the concepts contained within their albums and have committed to making amazing music about said concepts while clearly having a lot of fun while doing so. I feel that a parody band would come off as more insincere than these guys as a parody band by nature is doing an exaggerated caricature the genre while Gloryhammer is fully committed to said genre. So do people agree or disagree? Either is fine but if you disagree please do so respectfully and do not bash me for my opinions.

[@CommanderViviax]

They are utterly committed. That's why they're so awesome. They have awesome crazy story and they're going to do their very best to show it.

[@theBigBadBonobo]

Maybe it'd be more accurate to describe what these guys do as a burlesque of power metal, rather than an explicit parody. It's intended to elicit some degree of joy from mockery, but it's ultimately loving. Gloryhammer is to power metal as One Punch Man is to the superhero genre.

[@DjAirsurfer]

Gloryhammer is ridiculous, but definitely genuine. It's just the aesthetic is so different to the usual basic fantasy/knighthood/etc concepts. It's like a retro sci-fantasy aesthetic and imho it feels really fresh and wonderful

[@thisusernamenowtaken]

Agreed! There'a difference between _love_ for "over-the-top" and _mockery_ of "over-the-top". Also, 2:35 has a _wonderful_ 20-second *Bal-Sagoth* tribute, it's almost like directly lifted from from a Bal-Sagoth album that never got made :)

[@zombiepete]

The first rule of making a good parody is that you have to make a good version of whatever it is that you're parodying. It's why Shaun of the Dead is amazing and Scary Movie sucks.

How am I only discovering these guys now? Their songs are pretty much the LARP games my neighborhood friends and I used to play as kids. They would get more and more bizarrely epic as the year went on. We never fought zombie unicorns, or sorcerer's on the moon though. Instead we fought Zombie Jocks at the North Pole, had to lay siege to a trailer park to kill a Redneck Barbarian tribe. And invaded North Korea because it turned out the regime there was a front for interdimensional creatures with a base on Uranus. We never reached Gloryhammer levels of epic.

[@Judgement_Kazzy]

"Alright, we need a suit of armor for Angus XIII, but our costume budget is completely spent, and the costume designer already went home. Any ideas?" "I got my Iron Man costume from last Halloween and some green paint" "You're a goddamn genius and a lifesaver"

[@Ironfist85hu1]

Actually Angus McFife is swiss. Hootsman (the one who checked his beard right after the escape of the ice) is from Wales, Ser Proletius (the guitarist, Hoots is bassist) is from the U.K. (sry, can't find closer), Ralathor (the drummer) is from the U.K. as well, and the evil sorcerer Zargothrax is from the caribbean... i mean, from Scotland. Yea, he's not a pirate. Not at all, he is a chaos wizard. Yep. Btw their real names are Thomas Laszlo Winkler - Vocals (Angus McFife, Crown Prince of Dundee, Heir to the Kingdom of Fife) James Cartwright - Bass (Hootsman, Barbarian Warrior of Unst) Paul Templing - Guitars (Ser Proletius, Grand Master of the Templar Knights of Crail) Ben Turk - Drums (Ralathor, the Mysterious Hermit of Cowdenbeath) Christopher Bowes - Keyboards (Zargothrax, Dark Sorcerer of Auchtermuchty - his main job is a pirate captain in the ship named Alestorm tho. :P )

[@ggwrw3400]

Péter Ring Good to know, thanks for the exhaustive info :D

[@ritchcontant2398]

This is some real powerful "drunken" galactic "pirate" metal. You know, when you listen at Alestorm for too much time, Gloryhammer pops up next and you're like wtf is this? Then you can't stop getting high and smashing things with hammers.
