Indeed: Hail the Apocalypse from the Wacken show

[@dimitrisplastiras9447]

yes, yes, yes

[@TheCityProd]

No, too soft.

[@richardsinclair7661]

@@TheCityProd Hail the Apocalypse is not a soft song, what are you talking about? It's not the heaviest, but it's not soft. Also, it's groovy as fuck so who cares?

[@dannyschumacher971]

Definitely this one. Showmanship on display

[@jasonvoorhees9794]

That love performance was better than on the album. Truly shows how great of a band they are.

[@CrimChild]

The vocalist, Johannes, has such great stage presence. He's actually a shy dude off stage, but once he gets on stage, he controls the crowd. Their shows are always great fun. I didn't really like Avatar until I saw them live. I love when a band really put on a show and don't just play through their setlist. I mean, unless it's one of your favorite bands, you won't watch a band that just play through their setlist more than once. Avatar has lots of great songs. The Eagle has Landed is their hit-song and you'll never go wrong with that. Hail the Apocalypse, Let it Burn, Smells like a Freakshow and A Statue of the King are also great songs to go to next.

[@peterlidstrom7075]

First time I saw Avatar was at Wacken last year, and damn that was a great show, Johannes is an incredible frontman and can really work the crowd. It was one of my fav gigs at Wacken and I can't wait to get to see them again.

[@CrimChild]

@@peterlidstrom7075 Yeah, that show was great, probably one of my favorite shows last year too. They surprised me the first time I saw them as I wasn't prepared for such a good show :P

[@peterlidstrom7075]

@@CrimChild I was kind of prepared as one of my friends had seen them at another festival earlier in the summer, but they still impressed me massively. Avatar, Bloodywood and Frogleap were my fav gigs at Wacken last year.

[@matess666]

i was drunk with Johaness :D :D in Masters of Rock 2018

[@TwoRockingGrannies]

We LOVE Avatar!!! This was our first reaction too! Be prepared to watch more and be amazed!

[@TwoRockingGrannies]

MUST SEE: Let it Burn (Live from Sticky Fingers) and Hail the Apocalypse (Live at Wacken 2015).

[@TankTheTech]

Oh man, Sticky Fingers. What a great, intimate venue. Thanks for the heads up!

[@joelblom1388]

Saw your reaction to "Hail the apocalypse"..... the "Oh I love this people" comment was to die for... :)

[@kimeklund8880]

@@TwoRockingGrannies : And You all should react to Avatar - Torn apart (mayby the best song live) 😁👊🏼

[@everett880]

Love you grannies ❤

[@RANCHIN21]

My first Avatar song was “Let It Burn”. It came on randomly on Spotify one day and I’ve been hooked since. “Hail the Apocalypse”, “The Eagle Has Landed”, “...Avatar Country” and a to. of other songs are great introductory songs that all have different sounds.

[@adamtaylor9617]

Me too! So random and was hooked instantly

[@tetsuyakuroko7608]

Have you checked out Hunter Gatherer yet? I just found out about it a couple of days ago, while it's already been out since August. And there's 2 Corey Taylor cameos!

[@metallboy25]

That high scream into a growl, sends chills down my spine. lol

[@NV-NS]

Smells like a freak show is one of the greatest. But every song on every album is good to it's own degree.

[@tylerthegreat8001]

Avatar: let it burn, live at sticky fingers. It's like the first thing that comes up when you surch the song. It is the best thing they ever did.

[@voorheehees]

They’re currently doing Avatar Ages: four individual concerts throughout January and each is based off one of the bands phases or eras. I didn’t think it would be this good because it’s through a computer, but they put so much thought into crafting each stage, changing consumes, using LED screen backgrounds and the sets are fan voted. Their showmanship is really being highlighted through all of this right now

[@katdoherty3567]

Ages was amazing! They put on such great shows, even without the live audience. I'm feeling the need for Avatarch now Avataruary is over!

[@pRofesPL]

"The King Welcomes You To Avatar Country" from same show ;)

[@vildonfire]

his vocals are crazy on that one :D

[@joshlemke735]

Avatar shows never get old. Love every one of them. They are the only band that makes concept albums that I enjoy. Super creative. And killer musicians.

[@hencytjoe]

I live in Gothenburg and I used to work with the bass player's brother. Never met the player but his brother is one of the friendliest blokes you could find :)

[@TheNightInsideTheFir]

Avatar- let it burn (live), Get in line (live)....EVERYTHING by them (LIVE)

[@ADDryan1]

One of the best live performances you'll ever experience. Interesting observation on the stage setup -- their lighting & gear is some of the best I've seen for a metal band of this caliber.

[@vildonfire]

I am so fucking happy right now :D So happy you reacted, so happy you liked it!! Unfortunatly there's no solo in Bloody angel, but they are really really good with solos too (for a music video check out silence in the age of apes from latest album, got mad good solo from both jonas and tim) apart from that, most live stuff is awsome :D (they do really nice music videos too though!) And spot on, they are so passionate about their music, and they love what they do. Everyone in the band writes songs, and then they get together and bring out the best of the song :)

[@kheldaur2107]

Saw these guys in Tuska last month. And yeah, they´re awesome. What a stage presence the singer has. And never heard them before. Was impressed and now can´t stop listening to them :D Cheers from Finland my fellow metalheads

[@CoxJJAsmith]

ngl just came across you channel I love the "Tank fact" that pop up on the screen not many people do that type of thing but instead talk loads and spend less time just listening to the music, and also got to love the headbanging amazing stuff

[@jeanpatrickmeunier8493]

woooohohohoho Avatar is a chunk!! a nugget!!! SO MUCH CREATIVITY!!! SO PERFECT!

[@yanicklemieux5584]

You just made my day! Discovered them last year, can’t stop listening to them! They’re definitely a live band but they have great videos too. They are a very ecclectic band, so you may not be prepared for every songs (hopefully you will) For the next one maybe do an official video, because the other released videos of this show are not the best songs but still cool Hail the apocalypse King’s harvest Statue of the king Silence in the age of apes Colossus

[@jasonvoorhees9794]

Avatar has easily become my favorite band, my wife and sons as well. We just saw them at the “House of Blues” in Chicago for the “Dance Devil Dance” tour and they killed it. I’m constantly shocked that they aren’t more well known amongst the Metal community.

[@alexanderzadoroznyj]

Thank you so much for exposing me to this awesome band!!!!!

[@piotrkowalski451]

This is so amazing,I was there,this was my third visit to the festival which,in my opinion is the MOST POWERFUL metal and rock festival on earth. It is actually a town built for the music lovers,with schools,barbers,shops,all services you would need to function properly for a week or so.A few years back,when Arch Enemy gave their gig,Alissa admitted that it had been the best concert of her life and if I am not mistaken,over 800.000 people attended the show. I was there too,obviously!

[@X3Andy]

Let It Burn was my first Avatar song. The sound, vocal range and everything just hooked me immediately.

[@murksiii]

The mother of vocalist Johannes is from Gelsenkirchen (Germany) and he speaks German quite well and his interaction with the crowd at the Summerbreeze was just hilarious

[@kjerstiva]

I LOVE AVATAR SO FREAKING MUCH

[@667radiance]

Avatar has very wellproduced videos. Bloody Angel tells quite the story... I'd watch both, the songs with musicvideos adds to the experience :)

[@danderson5084]

I've seen some spectacular shows - Maiden, Rammstein, TSO etc. I've never had more fun or been more entertained than by Avatar in Toronto a couple of nights ago.

[@scottleroy1748]

Lol I subbed from this reaction. Avatar is one of the most underrated bands. Their "cinematic" vids are just as good as their live performances. They put on a great show either way.

[@TankTheTech]

Thanks a lot, man!

[@rob3040]

I just saw them on the current tour last week. Top ten shows of all time. They just keep getting better AND the state performance is awesome.

[@Japinaaa]

Hey Tank. Its already 2023, i think we all are ready for new Avatar reaction, are you? :)

[@distantsunrising]

Thank You for Finding the Brilliance of This Band. I don’t know what it is About Their Music, perhaps it’s the high resonance hertz. But They Make Me SO HAPPY!!! Tsar Bomba IS AWESOME . The Guitar is Going to blow You Away. And Yes Ibanez Sg with different and Brilliantly Customised Hardware 🤘🏻🌞🤘🏻

[@dkmcbigsley]

Another thing about their set. I loved the Avatar sign. It really smacked of the KISS sign. Just light bulbs flashing, but SO perfect.

[@marievie91]

YES!!!! Been waiting eagerly since your tweet and you deliveeereed! 👏

[@VivaLaEric21]

First time seeing your videos. Instant Subscribe!! I fell in LOVE with Avatar last year and can't get enough!!

[@TankTheTech]

Thank you!

[@frankie718]

Awesome band, and yes, they really shine live. Saw them supporting Halestorm in Birmingham UK in 2018 and they blew me away. Further listening: Hail the Apocalypse, The Eagle has Landed, The King Welcomes you to Avatar Country. Live or studio, all good.

[@TzOn79]

Lets get back to this great band!

Avatar is fkn awesome live. I love everything about them....... Recently overshadowed for me by Jinjer, but I would go see avatar anytime, anywhere, for almost any price. They're amazing.

[@henrikofficialproduction4289]

The fact that we got we got the most unique and the most powerful bands ever in sweden, that made me proud to be Swedish. And i'm playing on a Ibanez Iron Label RGIR20E and i love that guitar. 😍

I just remembered when rewatching this that my old friend Tilde does lights for Avatar and Kreator since 2019, awesome person! I belive shes tied to the Avatar crew these last two years

[@luciaalexandracachulofreire]

I love Avatar! Love them for years , I actually have been waiting for 10 years to catch them live here in Portugal!!! Hopefully in February!!!!

[@coreytaylor6857]

Saw them live with 5FDP and In Flames in Shreveport back in 2015. They were touring their "Hail The Apocalypse" album. It was an unexpected surprise. Dove in and love them since.

Need some GOJIRA “Gift of Guilt” live in Brixton L'Enfant Sauvage Silvera Heaviest matter of the Universe

[@vildonfire]

I absolutely love love love Art of dying. It is such a brilliantly written song, musically!

[@simonced]

Thank you for that great reaction! I discovered a very interesting band!

[@xCythex]

Huge Avatar fan here, and it has brought me to your channel. I gotta say I absolutely love your energy and reactions and your insight on what is going on. The Tank facts, the still shots accompanying your explanations. Love it. Well done man, will be checking out more of your stuff. As you can tell from other comments, "Hail the Apocalypse" is their huge breakout song and it's obvious to see why once you hear it. Other fantastic choices include, "Smells like a Freak Show" but I love the album version much more than the video version. Check both and you'll see what I mean, massively different tones. Also "Paints Me Red" is one that is closer in line with the feel of Bloody Angel. Also "The Eagle is Landed" is super fun and catchy. Thanks for reading and hope it helps!

[@TankTheTech]

Thanks a ton, man! Can’t wait to check out more!

[@arsvivendi33]

"Silence in the age of apes" by them...it's from their last album!!! Total BANGER!!!

[@rogerbehrendtz9750]

OH YES FINALLY !!! Love it loved it always gonna love it!

[@lens_hunter]

Avatar rocks, great video. My favorite song by them is Let It Burn! Also, I would give the advice not to worry about your judgement earlier in life. Our time is limited. We can't watch every movie or show, play every game, hear every song. Making snap thoughts and judgements only makes you human. We all do it. We need reasons not to try and taste absolutely everything, because that's impossible, and trying to do so would drive you insane.

[@HG-lt3id]

Avatar is awesome! seen them live 3 times, last time last week in Gothenburg...absolute awesome band!

[@violen.84]

One of my favourite YT reactors making a video about one of my favourite bands performing live at the best festival in my country?? I must be dreaming!! Thank you!!

[@zchan666]

Hail the Apocalypse, torn apart, and Statue of the king! I discovered Avatar a few years ago and they immediately became one of my favorites.

[@Braamsery1992]

Don`t know if anyone will see this, BUT Avatar will be the opening band for IRON MAIDEN on their Stadium Tour through Europe next year!

[@wildething7923]

Never even heard of these until they opened for Babymetal. Now I can't wait till things get back to normal and they come to the UK.

[@BilgeOnTheRocks]

OK, you got me with this! This visual Mix of Circus, Alice Cooper and Marilyn Manson with this Sound. Great Thing. Avatar are now in my Hitliste. Thanks for that. Often it's good to Check your " Horizon", isn't it?

[@dasOllum88]

FINAAAALY Here it comes... AVATAR!!!!! thank you soooo fckn much!! :D

...beside: same Band, other song: IN NAPALM!! ;)

[@andrewls2011]

I'm finding this late but I'm glad you're looking into Avatar after all this time. Pretty sure I drunk commented on a past video, and I'm pretty drunk now, so hopefully I remember this one. lol

"Hail the Apocalypse" is a must 🙂👍

Thanks. Great music, fun to watch. The changes from heavy to gentle is cool. It all seems to fit.

[@adamcassel2328]

AVATAR - Let it Burn, Napalm, Hail the Apocalypse, Colossus, Wormhole,.....the list goes on. I recommend doing a mix of both live and studio versions so you can see the similarities between both.

[@nathanaelhoss7366]

Caught Avatar at 2016 louder than life festival. Haven't stopped banging since🤘

[@Lilienpfote95]

Yay an Avatar reaction! They are one of my all-time favourite bands. I've lost count how often I've seen them live over the years (something around 20 times I think...), made great friends with other fans and photographers through them and met the guys on numerous occasions, always great to talk to and have a little chat with. Also, I just realised it has been over a year since my last Avatar concert. But they announced a couple of live stream shows for January so that's something.

[@joelblom1388]

I bought the full ticket pack to all 4 shows :)

[@Lilienpfote95]

@@joelblom1388 Same :D

[@novakiller2344]

I went to an Avatar concert when the album "Avatar Country" came out, and they are stupid good in person especially in a smaller place like where I live, they interacted with the crowd a lot and the whole time they just kept delivering on every song, def my fav band

[@ccrider327591]

Hahaha a month after this show Avatar was opening for Babymetal at the Hard Rock in Orlando. Needless to say it was a freaking amazing concert.

[@nancyfroerer1629]

I loved this as well!!!! AVATAR rocks

[@digitalmouse3314]

all there videos are amazing and super well produced and on Avatar Country is full rock opera with videos for most of it

[@piccolo1979]

Definitely Hail The Apocalypse. So fucking stoked that you discovered how awesome this band is.

[@piccolo1979]

Let It Burn, Smells Like A Freakshow, Eagle Has Landed, Paint Me Red, & especially Tsar Bomba. They have so much kickass music out there.

[@Bloodyria]

I'm quite sure I've been requesting Avatar for longer than 2 months but you're totally forgiven! You did this one just when they announced some live streams so... bad day fixed! I'm sooo glad you enjoyed one of my fave bands! They're super underrated, great musicians, an epic vocalist with an insane range, their energy is off charts and you probably won't find 2 songs alike. They are amazing live, as you now know, but they also have the best videos! I'd go with Smells Like a Freakshow or Hail the Apocalypse @ Wacken next but you just can't go wrong with anything from them (fangirling intensifies) PS: they even have a "movie"!!

[@ellalawrence5597]

Saw these live a couple years ago. BEST.GIG.EVER. Hoping to see them again next year

[@Shields_42]

Lullaby is a top favorite, When the snow lies red, and murderer, are also really good

[@florisbiezeman3800]

Haven't watched it yet, but I'm already going to say "thank you, I've waited for this" (:

[@florisbiezeman3800]

Oh and their videos are as interesting as their live performances, they have a special connection with their fans that I do not feel with any other band, i don't know why that is; maybe it's their creativity though. They always come with something new, not one song sounds the same, not one album has the same story as another one. They put their souls and ideas in music videos, album stories and for the album "Avatar Country" they even made a movie. So shortly said: to get a good idea of this band, you should listen to every song, watch every music video or live performance, watch their movie, watch their messages to fans or interviews. These guys are really special to me

[@andreasschmidt666]

hey tank you can see that this band pulls everyone under its spell and takes you on a journey so I wish you would review more of this great band, thanks from your brother from Germany

[@destineebrown5989]

YES! Avatar is one of my favorite bands. They KICK ASS live. Its hard to choose, but this song and Hail the Apocalypse are probably my favorite songs. The Eagle Has Landed is also good for first introductions

[@Bjarki2330]

Any song from Wacken 2015 live version is epic. Very very well played from them and clear sound from every member of the band.

[@jakubremes7602]

maybe it was said but The eagle has landed with the video clip. Love that song and the clip is also amazing

[@BrentBowlsBadly]

Saw these guys in Houston when they opened for FFDP. My initial reaction was the same as yours. Thought they were going to be a joke, then they started playing. They made a fan for life that night. Hail the Apocalypse or Smells like a Freak Show should be next.

[@fenrisfafnesbane7988]

Avatar - Let it burn🤘

[@Mattjs89]

Love your knowledge of gear right off the top of your head its amazing. Avatar are amazing one of the few bands that sound better live than on albums I rarely listen to studio versions of songs if they have a live video out

[@alexisboyer6491]

Ive only started listening to this song / band two days ago. This song keeps getting stuck in my head.

[@bramthebass2074]

you should look up what they do in their own stagesetup. Maybe in a next video. they have a chair going up like 12 ft. and they have a stage above the drumriser (where the letters are) where they can walk and go in and out of. really amazing. oh and btw, when the vanue is too small for a lot of pyro they use bubbles instead. now that was a really great surprise.

[@Japinaaa]

Hey Tank. Its already 2022, i think we all are ready for new Avatar reaction, are you? :) Jk, i know you must have huge list of songs to go through. Keep up the amazing work, love your content!

[@TheDoctorIWho]

Your analyzing of the song and the stage hit the core. Avatar create every song, every video and every album as a compreensive piece of art. You have to check out the video to bloody angel.

[@metalgurl87m98]

I seen them live in Sept and they fucking killed it. First time seeing them and I was completely blown away. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 Why haven't I listen to them before??? I am obsessed, my new favorite band.

And you definitely should try Statue of the King

[@datatravelleri]

Those guitars are gorgeous! I love that aesthetic.

[@ginobacas7018]

Wow. Avatar is a awesome live band. Saw them 6 times. Really nice to their fans. Go check out more live stuff of theirs like Queen Of Blades, Hail the Apacolypse, Torn Apart or Paint Me Red. Tower and When the snow lies red are also a few gems worthy to give them a listen

The videos for the eagle has landed and statue of the king is outstanding. Next live video is obvious.. Hail the acopalypse.. (With subtitles)

[@onemanarsenal]

Legend of the King live!

[@jefffischer4772]

I heard them first live and based on the strength of that one performance I grabbed two t-shirts and an album. They have some kick-ass music videos too though. One of the things I love about the band is how varied their music can get. I'd recommend listening to Smells like a Feak Show, Avatar Country, Napalm, A Statue of The King and A Secret Door. If you want to watch a video, you're going to love all the callouts to other great metal bands in Avatar Country.
