I NEVER KNEW I NEEDED THIS! Ex Metal Elitist Reacts to Nanowar of Steel "Norwegian Reggaeton"

Funny thing is they do it as a Hobby, its a side thing for them, they hold serious high paying jobs on the main, one of them is an astrophysicist or something, its how they could borrow that big ass telescope for one of their music videos xD

[@J3nJ3nl0llip0p]

I'm a firm believer that one's hobby SHOULD bring more joy than should be allotted to one person. These dudes seem to hold similar views. I cannot express how much I adore the way they are absolutely serious and do not at all take themselves seriously. ❤❤❤❤❤❤ I suppose it takes intelligence to be able to laugh at oneself...? WTF ever, it's HILARIOUS

[@89lozzi]

When they sing "a mirar la foca" (looking at the seal), you should know that in italian "foca" (seal) is very similar to "fica" (slang for "p**sy"), and is often used as a less vulgar substitute for it, so the line has a double meaning

Rule number one of a reaction to Nanowar of Steel: Do NOT try to drink a drink while reacting to their songs. It will come back to haunt you. Rule two: listen to their lyrics and try to suppress your laughter.

Did you get the early Norwegian Black Metal references. There were a series of wooden stave church burnings in Norway in the early 1990s. Fantoft Stave Church being the most famous. The guy who was allegedly responsible was Varg Vikernes who was tried for murder of another musician and the church arson attacks. He was found guilty of the murder and most of the church arson attacks. They burn his picture in the video.

[@randalljones4370]

There's a reason why you'll never see a Nanowar of Steel song on one of those "Don't Laugh Challenges". It's because no one can make it through the first dozen lines. We have a semi-thriving hispanic/adjacent music scene around here... it's so fun to drive down the streets of this little burg with the windows down on a hot summer's night... you can always find the party. I should send an audio file of this to Jan's Aunt who lives in the DR about 8 months/year. I don't THINK her Spanish is good enough to make sense of it. I hope not. But I bet she's heard music just like this in the street markets and noise-halls. btw, Coz.... you like a little German Schlagermusick? Cuz EC did a thing called "Hurrican" Going back and forth between EC and NWoS would seem to be a natural.

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

dudeeee that song by EC is soooo good. You can always send me stuff!

[@BadMoonHorrors]

Well, they have two different songs with an almost identical title: Hurricane is from 2019, with the previous lead singer, Hurrikan is from 2022 (that one comes with a warning, for good reason 😁).

As silly as their songs are it's amazing how much actual information there is in some of them as well. Their song "Uranus" for example, while making the obvious joke has proper facts about our solar system in there as well :)

[@moons.1363]

Glad you're enjoying Nanowar (Of Steel !) dude. I remember the days back when the first album came up and how it was a fun, nice novelty. Seeing how far they've made it since is great. Their ability to mimic and parody different bands or music styles, the overlapping of cultures, is amazing (I remember them tagging their music as "genre-fluid" lol) and yet how some of their lyrics can be quite elaborate and so full of references. Norwegian Reggaeton is probably one of my favourite of theirs. Having been a metal head for 20 something years, being familiar with the references makes all the funnier. I just about choked on my drink when they burnt the pic of Varg (and the lip thing and the butt drum had me laughing my ass off as well). They're a great parody band and if you like them you should check out Ultra Vomit, especially anything from Panzer Surprise. Not everything metal has to be serious or dark. Keep up the good work !

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

thanks so much Moons! They have been so fun to watch

[@i4gotchai4gotcha57]

Daddy Yankee ("Despacito" co-author) raises from Varg ashes...or Aske (Burzum LP)? Maybe a reference into the reference...

[@BadMoonHorrors]

Although Electric Callboy did choreographed dance in metal videos previously, Nanowar of Steel made it an art! Disco Metal (from their current album Dislike To False Metal) and Uranus feat. Michael Starr (from the US [parody] glam metal band Steel Panther) are perfect examples. Another humorous metal band is Feuerschwanz. You'd probably like their cover of the infamous 2004 summer dance hit Dragostea Din Tei (aka the Numa Numa song), original by Moldovan boy group O-Zone or the more recent Berzerkermode (from the current album Fegefeuer [Purgatory]).

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

Ohhhh I will have to check it out!

[@galadballcrusher8182]

@@TheWolffAndTheMelody yup Feuershwanz (means Firetail but also as a double entendre Firedick) is a different rabbithole altogether as it is part of the medieval metal scene which started with making lightvfun on the seriousness of medieval reenactors and bands therefore every member wears a different era costume or armor that goes with their stage persona. Their songs are in German but they do covers of known hits that are in English as well . They feature regularly pipes, bagpipes, violin, hurdy gurdy, but also electric guitars, bass and drums.

[@morgarthe8120]

Me didn't know the need of this either, until i heard it for the first time. Imagine this live with a packed crowd at a concert. 🤣 At the end of the video were two suggestions you can move on with. And yes, sometimes they make fun of a genre, sometimes of bands and their style. And sometimes they just ask their audience at live streams about giving suggestions for lyrics or even write them together (the song "In the sky" was written like this. They just asked: "Tell us everything you think is in the sky" and the chat responded).

Wait till you see "Barbie Milf Princess of the Twilight" or "And Then i noticed she was a Gargoyle" or "Uranus" or their latest..."Passadena1994" those guys in addition of crossing genres they sometimes write a song in the style of another band and invite some of the original members to participate. For example Barbie is on style of Rhapsody therefore they got their ex singer...they did one in style of Blind Guardian without any such member participation : "Quest for Carrefour" then you have "Uranus" with participation of Michael Star from Steel Panther then Passadena goes Sabaton Style and features Joachim from Sabaton. And then...Manowar style "Armpits of Immortals" featuring one of the founding members guitarist Ross "the Boss". Then in genre crossing style... "Disco Metal"
