Music That Will Make You Want To Slay A Dragon

[@HansPlatz]

Tank, thank you so much - as always! 🙏

[@LionheartSJZ]

Thank you Hans, even though I agree with Tank, the solo kicked ass immediately but should have been longer :D Can't get enough of your solos.

[@andalf_der_graue]

I second this. Longer solos for our man Hans! They are fire!

[@JMurdochNZ]

If the worst complaint is "your solo wasn't long enough" you're doing something right.

[@carstenoelsner2271]

Wir haben zu danken

[@angussharington2374]

@@LionheartSJZ Hey, at least he was the one slaying Siggi

[@derubor]

Hans is kind of a curiosity live on stage. He just stands there, barely moving, looking like he's unsure if he belongs on a stage, and then he rips these amazing solos. I saw them again on July 7 and Hans just casually walked past me. I and the guys standing near me were too stunned to react, otherwise I'd have a picture of me with him.

[@RiderRyuuga]

Hans is , in my opinion , the best Guitar player i ever heared.^^

[@andalf_der_graue]

I saw them one day before at the Rockharz Festival. They were fucking great as always. But I agree Hans seems out of place sometimes but the next moment he shreds like there is no tomorrow^^ One of my favorite guitar players for sure.

[@JMurdochNZ]

Not sure I would call him unsure, more chilled. He's less extroverted than the rest of the band.

[@andalf_der_graue]

@@JMurdochNZ No way he is unsure, he belongs big time and he is a major reason why I love this band so much. But every now and then he kinda seems like it :-)

[@brianrobichaud4798]

Its so refreshing to find someone who is so open to so many kinds of metal. I love that you just like good music because some of this ive never listened to but now love.

[@Ashley_Graves]

Short fun fact about the runes on the "dragon's" wings: they actually spell the name "Fafnir"

[@ared-ainu]

We were building LARP weapons, and because I am good at research, I translated some things for a friend to put on his sword in runes. His sword now has runic insciptions on old norse for wife, farm, and home. 😂

[@Ashley_Graves]

@@ared-ainu that's dope. I'm always amazed by the outfits people put together. And if you think about the time, effort, creativity and work that are put in there, it makes them even more impressive

[@heroizumi]

I'm always impressed with Feuerschwanz's costumes and a lot of other folk metal bands. I would love to see the process of putting those costumes together.

[@hessiansamuraij7634]

It is awesome to me, as a German, that they made a song in honor of an amazing Germanic Legend! Vielen Dank, dass Sie darauf reagiert haben.

[@LycielleHerself]

Very nice pronounciation, Tank!

[@keinsatzohnetippfehler]

Saw them earlier this July. Got the ticket on a whim one day before the concert. I was moping and really not in the mood to go anywhere on that weekend. But I did not want to miss the chance when there is a concert that close to me.

[@DeadpoolTesla]

Just like you feel like a viking jumping out of his boat into battle, when you get out of your car, after listening to Amon Amarth... 😜

[@KitaschiJogatamaXD]

Little fun fact: The leaf you can see at 7:15 is the one thing keeping Siegfried from being entirely invulnerable. The basswood leaf between his shoulders prevents the dragon's blood, in which he bathed after slaying Fafnir, to reach his entire body. That is the spot where Hagen von Tronje, in this case Hans der Aufrechte, hits him with the spear, as portraid in the video right at the end.

[@Andy_from_de]

Hans is a very convincing Hagen von Tronje. 😁

[@HansPlatz]

🙈🙈

[@mawe8601]

Stimmt. Von wegen "der Aufrechte". Er hat uns die ganze Zeit verarscht 😁

[@logankerlee]

Hell yeah, dude! This video was awesome!! I'm bummed that I missed it live on Twitch but it's all good because I saw it here. :) Be well, man. :)

[@tavernowl1737]

Visited their concert on May 3rd 2024 - Warrior release

[@Rakshiir]

I think with the new "setup" of the band (even though it is "just" one guy) after Rollo joining everthing "clicked" into place. Similar to Electric Callboy after Nico joined (different style of music, yes, but I feel like it is very similar if you look at the band synergy. They just work great since then), both bands bring so much fun to people because they are clearly having fun, it is just a joy to listen to them both. But with Feuerschwanz especially, I think Rollo really fits into the band on a personal level. He has this energy and interactions with them that really feels like they are just friends who happen to make (awesome) music. Hans really shines as well since they changed styles a little bit, they have been a bit more "goofy" in the past (which was fun in its own way, I really love that stuff to this day), now they have evolved more in terms of their music while still having fun tunes ect - but the lyrics are more "mature" in comparison, in the past there was alot of innuendo (as said, I still love that stuff, it was so fun in its own way). He is clearly a great musician, it feels like he is a bit less extroverted in comparison to some of the others in the band - which isn`t a bad thing, just an observation. Looking at the two members of the band that are mainly dancer/entertainer on stage, even they bring alot of energy and fun in their own way, and if you look at some videos from them, there is also alot of work connected to that part of the band that is sometimes overlooked. It just works right now, to me they are a unit that works exactly as they are right now, and seem to love to work together and have fun. Similar to EC (as mentioned above), if a band has such a fun vibe and energy together, it feels infectious while listening to their songs for me, I really just vibe and have a great time. Both bands as I said since their respected new rosters felt like they hit the nail with every song release since then, and that is saying alot if you think about it.

[@neongrau]

I love that Hans is part of Feuerschwanz. Yeah i wish him being more recognized but at the same time afraid to leave for greener pastures.

[@deltabravo1361]

agreed he is an integral part of Feuerschwanz

[@86LukeM]

Their cover of blinding lights and I see fire, are badass.

[@DropB3arZ]

Great Reaction Tank, and yeah Hans needs more solo time, bought this album as soon as they released first song, bought it then listened, knew was gonna love it, Feuerschwanz and d'Artagnan are definitely 2 of my favourite german bands

[@jlnow6588]

7:08 Grimace milkshakes

[@NaX619]

is saw the Angus Mc Six album release live with Feuerschwanz, was awesome

[@oliverjahn1149]

So for the ending of the Vid - In the mythology it was said that who bathes in Dragonblodd becomes invulnerable. But sadly as Siegfried did a leaf fell from a tree and came to rest on the back of his shoulder. Unnoticed he bathed in dragonblood, became invulnerable but this small piece of his skin where the leaf was wasnt covered in blood. Later he took a spear (correct me if I am wrong) right in that place and died

[@sarahs4655]

My german textbook in highschool twenty-mumbly years ago had little cartoons from the nibelungenlied scattered through it, it was fantastic.

[@armandthevagabond8641]

Waiting for my preorder of their deluxe version of the vinyl. Friday, here we go

[@jeffk1482]

These are ALWAYS fun Tank! One of these days I’ll catch you live, when I’m not working…😂

[@rotuz2759]

Great reaction as always, Tank. 🤘 But we also need more Powerwolf reactions.🙏

[@SneezingEagle]

With a title like that I'm in 👀

[@Sadfluffybear]

For anyone who cares the first verse which is repeated once is a stanza from the Poetic Edda and translstes to: "Youth, oh, youth! | of whom then, youth, art thou born? Say whose son thou art, Who in Fafnir's blood | thy bright blade reddened, And struck thy sword to my heart."

[@RatedRsUniverse]

Wow, great Video, great song! Looking forward of the new album! Great band! And great reaction btw. 👍

[@marge2548]

I think you are the first Non-German reactor to this piece who actually cared to mention what the song is on about. :)

[@Der_Dore]

Where the hell have i seen this helmet before ? Oh, right: Skyrim ! Liked also the 0.1 sec of Staind in the beginning of the vid.

[@Andy_from_de]

Untot im Drachenboot. 😉

[@BadMoonHorrors]

The dragon skull from Dragostea Din Tei is in this one too.

[@OgreKev]

Our German Club at my high school wow and performed a Siegfried play. In honor of des Drachen, we coined the term "Fafnirvergnügen".

[@colt.4598]

@TankTheTech. Just a suggestion take a listen to Bloodywood: Gaddar, Hidden Dimensions: Cosmic Annihilation, and Swamp Dukes: The Devil is in the Details.

[@caringancoystopitum4224]

Awesome song and video! Great reaction, as always ;) Am I the only one who hears Sabaton at the start of the song? Strong resemblance for the first few seconds of the song and the chorus. At least to my ears...

[@jacobsnellman1796]

Easy one! A swedish band named Dream Evil and their song Chasing the Dragon! It is actually about slaying a dragon. I love the whole album!

[@Billybobjoe]

That is a very good album your right. Especially for a debut.

[@Herdatec]

I'm going to see them next Saturday in Bückeburg!

[@M.Holland]

As soon as I saw the leaf falling on his back i knew he would die immediately. Great video as always! :-)

[@carligula78]

so this video is almost one year old - since when is hans using the burned guitar? @tankthetech we need gearresearch if this is the first dragonbreath burned guitar

[@BadMoonHorrors]

If I remember it right, I saw it for the first time in the video for Double Trouble/ Lumos, which premiered last year somewhere in the middle of December. Dragonbreath, interesting thought, you might be on to something here.

[@kane9889]

Saw them twice in one year and am already thinking about buying tickets again for the 24 tour

[@dr.chrispy8677]

Remind me so hard to a Sabaton song in Folk Metal! Love it

[@Maulboy_TFT]

They even thought about the leave in the end that marks the only vulnerable spot Siegfried has after bathing in dragon blood. So much attend to detail here

[@Metalman260]

The verse is sung in Icelandic Refrain in German and English Hans plays Hagen von Tronje He was the one who knew where Siegfried was vulnerable and then killed him in between. A great story The Nibelungen I don't know if you know the story in America?

[@KIskra]

I love these guys!

[@Killer-6370]

For those who dont know, Siegfried was a dragonslayer, in ring der Niebelungen, he killed a dragon and took a bath in his blood= he became unvulnerable, just missed a Spot on his neck, where a leaf Covered it(thats what killed him) as someone who lives at the Danube(Donau) we know the story

[@jonny555ive]

These guys definitely go hard 🤘🤘 And I agree with you tank, the guitar solos are way too short. Keep up the great work brother. ~Jonny5🥁

[@reubenk7331]

Wow pretty awesome stuff. Definitely reminds me of Amon Amarth but in their own way. Those solos hit different and are so wicked.

[@Echsenkoenig]

7:38 Hagen. The dude is called HAGEN in this role 😂 But if you prefer Sigurd over Siegfried, the old backstabber would be named "Högni"

[@Daniel-Deveraux]

I'm laughing so hard right now. Fegefeuer from Napalm Record ... That's brilliant 🤣🤣🤣 ok maybe the reason why I laugh is more understandable for germans. And yes, Hans is great.

[@rheahinshaw7471]

Who do you think would win a guitar duel between Hans and Syn from A7X?

[@TankTheTech]

Completely different playing styles, but I’d pick Hans.

[@RolfHering]

Thank you Tank, you rock!!!

[@Elyrium42]

Hey tank, just out of curiosity, is there a reason there's no reaction video to Feuerschwanz's "Berzerkermode" on this channel? Would've loved to see a reaction from you there

[@TankTheTech]

Watched it in my own time and never filmed a reaction for it. Can’t film everything. 🤘

[@Elyrium42]

@@TankTheTech ah okay, understandable. Thanks for the quick answer :)

[@sooFaarAwayy]

Nice one. Thank you for pointing out so many good bands. Another best of best german bands is Any Given Day in my opinion. "Get that done" is the newest song and will pleasure you for sure :)

[@carstenoelsner2271]

Any given Day is a realy nice German Band i'll like the Diomonds Cover it's a Thing you shold take a Look of Tank

Somehow I totally didn't catch this when it released but it's SO GOOD!! Like you said, Tank, idc if they keep doing what they're doing, because it's just brilliant!

[@sashamocni4933]

Not gonna lie but as soon as I heard this song I was ready for your reaction. Love it 🤟 Some things are just meant for each other 🤗

[@michaelgamert2620]

Tank, check out the band INFINITAS with the Single XANA from Switzerland. They have a new female vocalist and they kick some ass. Saw them recently on the Rock Harz Festival in Germany. Keep on going, Tank

WOA is coming, no Feuerschwanz but d'Artagnan will be there. Competing against Doro and her 40th stage party. Nearly same Timeslot, different stages. There some returned tickets left.

This. Fucking. Slaps That’s all I have to say 😂😍

[@Pufferzsola]

i'm a single man, you use Staind, i press like. But the music is ... GREAT! LETS ANIHILLATE A DRAGON! HARR!

[@luisnunes3863]

I won't be mad if they keep on releasing music like this for the next 20 years, either. Don't mess with a winning formula. I'll go further, if you want to play with a different sound, that's what side projects are for. If fans wanted to listen to a different band, they would. P.s. good to have the basic ass reactions back.

[@BrandonGlasgowMusic]

Feels like a killer anime intro

[@richardb2652]

Is it wrong that I find the Valkyrie with the violin really hot?

[@habbathejutt5749]

Its realy funny that you said "feuerschwanz make feuerschwanz things" and you will never be upsad when they keep sounds like this. They made COMPLETLY different music not so long ago. Much less metal and much more folk elements, but with very "controversal" lyrics.

[@guyplachy9688]

I'm never sure if Ben really wants to be a singer or an actor, he really seems to get off on hamming it up.😆

Don't mind me, I'm just here to simp for Johanna. Sweet jesus.

[@buhnerboy1974]

If this just randomly popped up i would almost think it's Sabaton

Hmmm…. Music to slay dragon for me that would be the Pogues always has been and I just can’t think better Dragon swing music.

[@TankTheTech]

What?

[@AP-RSI]

Even though this is a good song, I like "Berzerkermode" and "Bastard von Asgard" better! Nice that they showed the leaf on his back while bathing in blood. That is the place where Siegfried remained vulnerable because no dragon blood got to his skin there. For those who do not know the story of Siegfried and the Nibelungen saga!
