[@davidpardy]

Dragonforce: "Let's write an Amon Amarth song!" Amon Amarth: "..." Amon Amarth: "It's not a boat, it's a ship!"

[@acediadekay3793]

He obviously wasn't cool enough to get on a proper Longship

[@davidpardy]

@@thibaultponsart6425 A drakkar is the type of ship, it doesn't negate the joke :)

[@phantomechelon3628]

Chief Brody: "You're gonna need a bigger ship!" 😁

[@cp777ification]

You need to try infant annihilator on for size, lol! That would be great!

[@amiridoo]

I laughed so hard bro

[@a-highlander5955]

We need Powerwolf next. Seeing Sam trying to sing like Attila Dorn would actually be funny 😆.

[@danoliver3053]

Good call, that would be hilarious 😂

[@leandrovr13]

UP!

[@TheGrodolf]

oh yes please !

[@ignaciomartinchiaravalle]

YES

[@HeirofDacia]

I wanna hear his latin, ngl.

[@TheLegendarySuperSaiyanBroly]

As an amon amarth fan I can assure you they'll be flattered. So flattered that they'll even cover it.

[@GrantedEX]

DragonForce are really just massive trolls on twitch, I love it.

[@mindtraveller100]

No, Sam. Sam´s the man.

[@metalmelon1118]

So you don't take their efforts serious?

[@metalmelon1118]

Jk

[@jameshatfield7165]

Alt title: Herman watches Sam write an amon amarth song

[@coninater]

"Featuring Herman´s sleepy doggo"

[@Granalfsson]

Just like always?

[@mrzw377]

This is actually realy good. "Why cant we all just get along" took the cake for me. Lets make Johan Hegg sing it!

[@TheLegendarySuperSaiyanBroly]

They'll do it!

[@Feelingsarenotfact]

This idea is fantastic, I feel a whole album coming from these songs.

Shut up and take my money! :D

[@waltgrisly509]

You should do a cover of "Stop saying we sound like Dragonforce" to do a complete circle :D as an album extra.

[@fedepede04]

Yes and call it "we used to sound like DragonForce" 😂

[@kamikaze96ification]

"I´m Ola Englund yes I am, how do you like my practice amp" is the best thing ever

[@ironlemon666]

I might have woken up my neighbors just laughing to that part.

[@Sirlants_alot]

But does it chug?

[@astheravensfly8614]

Amon Amarth is my favorite band, so I was going to be really critical of this one. And honestly, I loved it. Sam your vocals were great. The lyrics were hilarious but still on theme. And the music seemed to fit. That intro actually gave me goosebumps. Bravo!

[@felcakes2153]

Same here my only complaint (or nitpick) would be that Amon Amarth doesn't have solos that high

[@astheravensfly8614]

@@felcakes2153 that's true. The only one that's close to that is Twilight that I can think of.

[@Granalfsson]

Well in all fairness drums, and vocals were shit. But still fun:p

[@lordodin5755]

​@@astheravensfly8614 Destroyer of the universe goes quite high too no?.

[@Sonsofodinofficial]

Ayyyy they’re my fav too!!

[@Vlad-kd7eh]

I think Dragonforce is capable to give us Time II faster than Wintersun

[@brenocomazzetto5680]

Indeed

[@SirJohnsonLebaws]

I feel like you're crossing a line there

[@cristiaolson7327]

🤣🤣🤣

[@jonjones6467]

I'm pretty sure there's a new Wintersun album coming since Jari took last year off to write. It's not going to be [redacted] but it is exciting.

[@libritium]

Dude, Sam is talented AF...

[@Ravutto]

I didn't know Sam is such a great songwriter. He has a huge talent. Respect!

[@mungolockhart3875]

"Stop saying we sound like DragonForce" -DragonForce

[@dgambl1]

This should be called Sam writes a song in whatever style, Herman is just there for the solos. Seriously, though this is hilarious and awesome at the same time. I'm not sure how long this really took to do, obviously it was more than 10 minutes, but still awesome that he pulled it off before drinking a 12 pack.

[@christophersimons6560]

I want to see Metallica. Herman ripping a classic Kirk Hammett solo would be incredible

[@andyventures6574]

Just need a wahwah pedal.

[@michaellorenz7177]

I don't think Herman has a wah supply like Kirk to abuse his wah pedal like Kirk.

[@martenegermalm2886]

So proud of being (a tiny) part of this majestic songwriting process ^^- Stuff like this is one reason why Dragonforce is my favorite band.

[@ZeratoxOmega]

Sam and Herman to write a song in the style of Dimmu Borgir, reference point being Serpentine Offering.

[@leejun5061]

Aww yesss pls

[@obnoxious_cow3582]

I second this

[@LastofAvari]

2:57 "Each KZbin minute is a lot of minutes in the World." © 2021 Herman :D

[@albinoreaper2949]

DragonForce AND Amon Amarth? I don’t think there’s a bigger supply of testosterone on the planet.

[@octaviosander8898]

Virginity*

[@Wesleysnipes87]

Just listen to Larry Wheels laugh

[@metalpianomusic5635]

Nope!!! It’s the highest supply in existence

[@antalbojtos4413]

Don't talk to me about testosterone until Vulgaris Magistralis is not involved

[@Pirustae]

Pfff what a lame comment.

[@CharlesOffdensen]

Hammerfall have a stile. It takes one second to recognized them.

[@mindtraveller100]

They do. One of the very first bands i became fan of, back in 1997. Now, i feel old...

[@dbassir87]

I love Hammerfall and Dragonforce! I made a band when I was younger called “Hammerforce” haha we did a battle of the bands and won

[@kfury1527]

This is why DragonForce is one of my all time favourite bands. Just great friends having great fun with eachother on Twitch and doing great content on KZbin. Along with brilliant music.

[@billdyer744]

You could release the album as DragonFarce.

[@mikeh6286]

SCREAM.... FLEEE.... this part cracked me up...brilliant.

[@maxkolchinsky9544]

I really wish you brought Mark Hudson to stream some time!

[@dante4697]

Holy shit that was actually tight AF!! That solo was fkn great I love it the lyrics too 🤣 Johan, Olavi and the other Johan should see this lol

[@radzsing]

LMAO... this is freaking hilarious! I absolutely love Sam's reaction when Herman plays the finished product. It's like watching a naughty kid enjoy his mischief.

[@nelsonta00]

My body is ready for teh trollin... I mean for the masterpiece.

[@matthewmiller6716]

Herman Lis dog at 8:58 is my mood when listening to this. Chill

[@Vortexakos]

Next song should be Powerwolf or Blind Guardian style.

[@Nightcrawl7]

blind guardian would be sick

[@zannahbane9890]

I'd like to see Amon Amarth do a song with you guys. Let's make that happen!

[@I_am_Jordan_K]

I can't help but laugh that Sam is drinking beer while Herman drinks bubble tea.

[@AndyD070568]

These are my favourite videos on KZbin. Please do more!

[@VilainNabo]

Parody of a parody next? Nanowar of steel

[@Khantia]

Do Sonata Arctica or System of a Down next :o

[@thebigmuffin6632]

Sonata Arctica would be great!

[@Werewolf914]

So either write a song that relates in someway to stalking, or one where you just snort as much Cocaine as you can? I like it they totally should.

[@kristinemargareteaparicio2016]

- if you’re strong enough to do an Arch Enemy song, then I dare you, hahahaha, let’s see what will Angela Gossow or Alissa White-Gluz reaction. 😂😛🤘🤟

[@mikeh6286]

I'd love to hear one too but... Arch Enemy members don't really have youtube presences. I don't think they will comment. Like Amon Amarth, I guess.

[@ermguitar2052]

I'd love to see that, but I feel like I'd get nightmares about Sam in a blue wig screaming inspirational quotes.

[@IwieIch123]

the lyrics are truly a masterpiece

[@kastoria11]

Was a pleasure seeing herman playing Alexi's axe

[@thejester7883]

I'm not the biggest fan of Dragonforce, but Herman and Sam are such a cool guys! Even though this is a joke it takes so much talent! I'd buy album of this covers.

[@Targon999]

That whole song wasn't too bad actually, and I really liked the message. Would be interesting to hear what amon amarth think about it 😂

[@Deehvad]

Imagine being a member of Amon Amarth and seeing this... I'd be so honored, but laughing my head off at the same time!

[@slicksmick89]

Huge respect for Herman playing that Alexi guitar as tribute!!!

[@Runecrow.]

Putting a "W" instead of "V" in "Viking" at some parts was a nice touch to poke a bit more fun at their Swedish friends. lol

[@AndreJungermann]

Battle Beast or Beast in Black attempt would be incredible!

[@cristiaolson7327]

Musically, I feel like capturing the auditory spirit of Beast in Black wouldn't be too much of a stretch for them, but Sam attempting to sound like Yannis will be up there with his efforts to sound like Floor. 🤣 I need this in my life.

[@joemash929]

honestly, this is my favorite one. actually sounds good.

[@alexanderwagner4587]

I came into this wanting to hate this but I was laughing before it was half over lol You guys should definitely try to get Hegg from AA to sing an extended version of this!

[@cagdas135]

Herman, bring back this concept. It was so much fun.

[@MetalThrashingMan13]

No you never get it in one take. That’s a true friend

[@radleychin6565]

Imagine the music video to this where instead of growling in front of frozen northern landscapes Johan is just chilling and doing yoga while Sam and Herman run away

[@kjn5991]

Their backgrounds are like: Herman: "Check out my guitar harem". Sam: "Cool story bro, I have 5 pinball machines in my studio".

[@B-jorno]

Amon amarth is my favorite band, this was hilarious, absolutely loved it!

[@kevgmei]

Ever since I first heard Twilight of the Thunder God, I always thought you guys would make an epic cover of it! More of these videos and streams after the tour would be awesome!

[@GiovanniPerini]

We need some *Unleash the Archers* too, because of reasons!

[@matttate9999]

The song actually has a pretty great hook...it's catchy.

[@MaximusAdonicus]

Many of their tribute songs have had good hooks 😀😳 At least the one's I've heard (Nightwish, Amaranthe)...

[@prashantsarkar821]

Please do Powerwolf next!

[@hanswurst9145]

dragonforce should do an album with all the songs they made in 10 minutes

[@BurstingVeins1]

That would be amazing if you guys played Alexi guitars in Finland next time you're there.

[@csnoob02]

i want a whole album of this stuff ! to catchy & funny

[@user-vi9lm9um5n]

This is a masterpiece, I love that SO MUCH, guys

[@alejandrolopez4770]

Wish so fucking much Johan from Amon Amarth agree on joining them ❤️

[@Ehrmann_Gregsson]

The lyrics came out great! They remind me of those parody metal bands like Nanowar of Steel

[@MisterKUltra111]

I just watched an interview of Sam Totman in a pub and his way of talking reminded me so much of Grimes for some reason. Now I wanna see you produce a Grimes song in 10 minutes, lol!

[@MisterKUltra111]

pleeeaaaase

[@me4222]

I think the album should be called "Don't Blame Us, Blame the Twitch Chat". Or something to that effect.

[@DeathMetalGuitar]

Herman @5:49 LOL!!!! BRUTAL - can tell you're good mates :P inspiring Sam's confidence @8:35 LOL!! ;p .....EXCELLENT jam btw!

[@AlliV93]

I love these so much

[@daniellopezeverest]

That was cool that kind of sounded like Dethklok as well

[@elenazorzolirossi]

I would call the album of all the covers DRAGONFORCED

[@phlorgan]

You have to get Johan on Stream!!

[@scottnixon9236]

Love it . Always entertaining. Gonna go outside and chop down some tress and build my village. Cheers

[@ryant3600]

"Vikingy" & "Doopy Doopy Doop" are official technical terms.. :) I love these by the way..

[@Vayth]

This was awesome! Please do Paradise Lost next! 🤘

[@INFLAMES750]

This was really bad ass and funny at the same time! Both guitar solos are amazing! I think Amon Amarth would find this funny and be proud at the same time.

[@MrPepepe666]

Bro! the drunk bastard with the beanie is a hell of a composer actually

[@hukkumkhinda497]

lmao

[@SabanNP]

11:11 letsss goooo

[@killsun13]

It's great to see true virtuosos not taking themselves so seriously.

[@videbjerde]

A Ghost song would be awesome to hear!

[@sgw_]

I never really buy albums but if you release these as an album I'll have to buy it

[@GAT96]

That one is really one of their bests!

[@kaderkaderdo787]

All you need is viking vibes to play amon amarth 🤘 A band that plays this much of other bands styles is simply a TALENTED band love you guys.... Cheers from Algeria ❤️

[@mullejr806]

these lyrics were so ridiculous strong, i almost had to shit my pants because of laughing that boneless mass straight out of my back like the protagonist of the song

[@stunningstubbs]

Please do Stratovarius or Blind Guardian next.

[@captainkeller2792]

Man I just love the Laiho guitars. They all look sick.

[@JoeStuffz]

There's something about those lyrics. There's something about being pacifist, and those primal instincts, and the part about missing Mom. Did you guys just invent a new subgenre of metal?

[@patrickreynolds5463]

It's like what Christian Metal is to Black Metal

[@Hyporama]

"Viking-y enough? I thought it was pretty Viking-y"

[@radleychin6565]

Editing went up about 6 notches. Did Herman or Sam learn more about that stuff or did they hire someone haha?

[@-ya_boi_nowlan-1262]

Amon Amarth are an amazing band

[@abdullashafi580]

I love them man !

[@mattyfox_]

DragonForce writes a song like A Day go Remember?

[@HalfDuck]

Getting better and better with each song

[@johnp9445]

Yesss nice! Get Johan to sing this and then release a Album with all the Songs🙏🏻

[@koryhacker7286]

Would love to see you all take a crack at Twilight Force

[@glm1987]

For the love of Thor, awesome! 😂

[@samyill]

I am a massive Amarth fan and this was fucking epic! Well done lads!!!!

[@silverstar6493]

I think this is the best one yet. Awesome job, guys. Next song: Static-X style

[@michaelnorback4717]

Love it, Can you please make a D-beat crust punk song like Dicharge? :D

[@youztuber5000]

Beautiful...

[@TheWfindlay]

Yesss!!!!!! These are the best videos of all time

[@downerelec4378]

bruh the solos were fantastic

[@barkertiude]

The next number one knocked out in 10 minute's 😂

[@TheFallenWarchief]

Nice custom Laiho guitar man :)

[@salva0922]

Get Johan Hegg to sing it!
