ROADIE REACTIONS | Powerwolf - "Sainted By The Storm"

[@Powerwolfmetal]

Thumbnail looks promising, now we're curious for the premiere! 🐺🤘

[@lulululu8045]

Love you!!!!

[@troybalster3687]

We need a USA tour here asap.

[@themarve]

looking so much forward to your Oberhausen show :D

[@michelemerisi1958]

We need a tour in Italy. Love you!

[@starsword-c2534]

Not two days after this song came out, we ran into a gang of vampire and werewolf pirates in our Pathfinder game. 🤘 🐺 🦇 🤘

[@Metalencio94]

I'm one of those waiting for a Sabaton/Powerwolf tour. And if said tour is not called "Amen & a Tank", I'll be upset. Awesome reaction, Man.

[@gimbolak8928]

That would be epic

[@birgersandman2662]

omfg, that name is amazing lmao

[@gersy4988]

There would be NO better name for that XD

[@jeffdick8881]

That's brilliant!

[@galtur5241]

They toured together in Europe in 2011, was a blast. And i discovered Powerwolf back then :D

[@araposkulo]

I think PW and Sabaton have always sounded kind of close in style. PW is "church Sabaton" and Sabaton is "army Powerwolf"

[@eduardomonjaraz1304]

👌😅👏👏

[@grimmshredsanguinus2915]

Exactly

[@anakin4702]

Powerwolf is one of the rare group for which I find that absolutely all their songs are good!

[@OneAngryVelociraptor]

I feel like all their songs sound the same. Maybe thats why.

[@MrSagranda]

As soon as I heard that opening verse I was like "Wait, is this Powerwolf or Sabaton?". Just a little bit later. Tank:" I'm getting Sabaton vibes" Me: "Thank you, I'm not crazy".😃 And yeah, it's a great song. I really dig it. I only listen to Powerwolf on occasions, but I will definitely listen to them more in the coming days.

[@Hiten19]

Omg I’m not the only one who thought that!?

[@nyrmetros]

Sabaton and PowerWolf together please!

[@TobiasIs]

Same xD

[@hamachibeans4471]

Listen to the lost battalion and sainted by the storm back to back

[@cxpKSip]

Its distnctly Powerwolf in terms of lyrics. But... I hear some similarities.

[@paule.3303]

This song seems like the perfect blend of Alestorm + Powerwolf, immediately went to the top of my Powerwolf list, loving this track

[@lennartwolfert1023]

Exactly my thoughts :)

[@nyrmetros]

Sabaton, PowerWolf, and Alestorm on 1 tour together!

[@anzaca1]

Only 2 band's songs have ever gotten me headbanging. Sabaton, and now Powerwolf.

[@databloom70]

Sabaton's influence is huge right now. They just have a winning (and very profitable) sound and presentation, so it's no wonder many bands similar to them are following suit. I even hear a bit of crossover with Amon Amarth at times. I love all three bands, so it's all good.

[@OldSkuleNerd]

I was confused for my reaction so I’m here cause TANK WILL MAKE SENSE OF IT ALL LOL

[@Stiin]

dude can you imagine that chorus live? with a massive crowd singing along.

[@cristinasetyar]

I have a feeling Attila will make us sing that chorus in concert just to see us fail those high notes. Again 😁.

[@joshuafischer684]

SongBreakerWorkbench is gonna have a field day with this

[@cxpKSip]

I have not seen any live performance from this band. My problem wouldn't be one of tone, it'd be one of can I pronounce everything they're pronouncing in the time they do.

[@mugenokami2201]

@@joshuafischer684 I like to think bands love his work on their songs. That way they can make their music even more epic

[@MatrakenKEN]

4:21 I was going to say the same thing dude, it feels as if Sabatod had composed a song for Powerwolf to play. I wish the two bands made a crusade themed collab!

[@nyrmetros]

Sabaton and PowerWolf ftw!

[@javelin60]

When Powerwolf Official keeps tabs on you.😎🔥

[@skillBpro]

I would like to see a collaboration between Sabaton and Powerwolf. Vlad the Impaler would be a good choice because it fits Sabatons history theme and Powerwolf's mythical theme as he was the inspiration for Count Dracula

[@LuisRosa72]

If someone had told me this was a Sabaton song with Attila's voice layered on top of it, I would've believed it. I freaking love it!

[@SiriaBlackYT]

Nice to know I wasn't imaginating things and this song has a bit of Sabaton in it! The chorus is a real killer. I prefer when you break down gear, but if doing this kind of more relaxed video from time to time prevents you from burning out, go for it!

[@nyrmetros]

Sabaton and PowerWolf please!

[@hamachibeans4471]

Listen to the lost battalion and sainted by the storm back to back

[@soopy0287]

I'm a full Powerwolf Fan, and i enjoying your reaction. 🤘😂🔥

[@PiT0nZo]

All I want in life is for Powerwolf to come to the US and tour man. I will buy tickets for all my friends.

[@DonDuracell]

Powerwolf and Sabaton are definitely to some extend similar. And back in the day when Metal festivals were happening in Germany they played so often together on festivals that friends and I started to refer to them as the "Saberwolf and Powerton" combo menu. 😛

[@nyrmetros]

Sabaton and PowerWolf need to tour together again!

[@ub3r0wn4g3]

I have seen Powerwolf at Wacken about 3 times and they still blow me away with the uniqueness they bring. And this latest song makes me love them more and more. It makes me want to sing and shout and party with the crowd

[@geronimowirth4477]

Damn I love powerwolfs chorus so much! Army of the night, Amen and Attack, Demons are the girls best friend etc etc and now this! They are always so good I will never forget this band. Saw them 5 times and my first time crowdsurfing was at wacken with "we drink your blood" , just great! :D

[@Unknow-gs7rb]

Wow. Just found out about this band tonight. I’m blown away!

[@ritchiep7810]

I can't wait to see the actual music video for this song..

[@hamachibeans4471]

That chorus always gets my helicopter head going

[@Wuthahn_]

I was about to comment the Sabaton thing, but then you said it. So there you go, I have nothing to say :D

[@uldzslubrnt5663]

If Sabaton does a cover version of this masterpiece, I would have nothing to dream of. =)

[@Inufan2005]

I heard this pop up on my Pandora station last night and Instafavorited it for the opening alone.

[@Nuclearstulle]

Hey @TankTheTech just a few hours ago the physical release for 'The Monumental Mass' has been announced! There's Blu-Ray/DVD/CD/Vinyl/Cassette!

[@CplCoffee]

Anyone else pick up Faster than light playing in the background during the intro? always love hearing UtA

[@itaintnobutterflies6265]

This song gives me earlier powerwolf filing . The first time I saw them live was back in 2013 . And I'm almost every time the com to the Nederlandse I'm there since Dan . I'm glad you got the chance to hear it early you deserve it man 🐺🤘🏻🐺🤘🏻🐺🤘🏻🐺

[@bl4ckm4mba12]

Absolutely agree, this has more of the old Powerwolf in it than most of their new stuff - which I like a lot, because while modern Powerwolf is still good, I liked them even more in the time from Blood of the Saints to Blessed and Possessed. Should be a reason for me liking this song a lot.

[@wrriddle]

This song became my favourite Powerwolf song after the first listen. They always have catchy songs, but this one is extra earworm material. Also: I'd like to join in on the begging for a Monumental Mass Dvd. Napalm Records and Powerwolf, pretty please? :)

[@quintuskater2191]

+1 that song is insanly catchy ^^

[@harrisonlevy8115]

I pretty recently discovered these guys listening to a Sabaton station on Apple Music. I fell in love with them so fast! I ABSOLUTELY hear the similarities between them and Sabaton in this song! I hear it a lot in the lower harmonies/backing vox.

[@borsuk5707]

good to see you again Tank. Greetings from Poland! TWOJE ZDROWIE :) !

[@louiscliffordmcmullen954]

Tank another epic Powerwolf song , fantastic. Powerwolf never disappoints. Great reaction. On another note I went to see knotfest. Roadies are amazing! It took then fifteen to twenty minutes to break down and put up another set. You are so correct, Roadies only ware black. Maria Brinks costume got hung on a prop and a roadie ran out and took care of it. So professional 👏

[@SourDohSteele]

Goddamn phenomenal.

[@Robert_Herring]

This song is made for live performance. Great chorus.

[@MrKangaroo123]

such a banger track, I just wish bands like Powerwolf and Sabaton would tour Australia on as much of a regular basis as they do Europe and America.

[@Depressed_Nightfury]

We're stilling waiting for Powerwolf here in the states

[@BjornIronSid3]

Fn love it when you headbanged to the chorus too my favorite band =)

[@bellystraw]

Been blasting it all day and jnew I had to check out your take on it

[@Pelasgos14]

Awesome reaction man. Red alert!!! New Evergrey "midwinter calls". Another masterpiece.

[@TankTheTech]

On the list of things to do!

[@hirukoai6329]

He is back again 🥰

[@ThorsHammer88]

Definitely has a big Sabaton feel.

[@darthcalanil5333]

The first time I heard the first chorus of this song I immediately added it to my playlist

[@MetalPhantomX]

Typical Powerwolf style! I am digging it!

[@Claw_Draven]

Esa es la FÓRMULA Sabaton. Una canción como éstas siempre serán épicas y alucinantes. Aunque parezca similar a otras, no importa. Igual te vuela la cabeza..!! Gran reacción, Tank!! 🤘🏻👏🏻💪🏻

[@SaschaFrenzer]

I watched this 3 times. Not because of the music, but of how much fun you have, dude. Rock on!

[@bobsatan69]

yeah,awesome song. Powerwolf is one of my top favorite bands, and yeah so is Sabaton.

[@AllieCat90]

I’m honestly just waiting for Powerwolf to tour the US. I have some of their song lyrics tattooed on my arm

[@lovrosedej7655]

The chorus feels like it has something Sabaton in it but i cannot name it as it sounds Powerwolf af. The intro with the vocals and instrumental chorus before the actual vocals begin is hella Sabaton. The drums during the verses remind me of Sabaton too but the verse itself is classic Powerwolf. This might be my new "hey check this band out" song for introducing people. Have you heard Midnight Madonna before? It took me like 2 years to realise it even exists (shame on me) but its very fun, the organ is really the star in there. I dont come here for gear breakdown man, i come here to see if Tank takes off his hat to headbang. Do what makes you happy and people will watch for the energy of a person visibly having a great time.

[@1990themule]

I do love a bit of power metal from time to time

[@jimmykungberg308]

Fun to do a first listening to a song in a reaction video :D love Power wolf top 5 band

[@kriegin164]

150% agree with everything in this video, have had so much fun listening to this song.

[@patriklicak2302]

That beginning is giving me Carolus Rex vibe :)

[@A1B2C3816]

Duuuuuude - so happy you listen 2 powerwolf. These guys here from my city (saarbruecken) & i'm so f*cking proud of them

[@novustalks7525]

This was the song that Introduced me to powerwolf

[@samanthahard5540]

Crazy Sabaton vibes! Btw I have barely seen anyone react to brothers of metal, and I know you've only done one reaction. They do great Viking metal with a comedy twist. They just came out with a new song which I haven't seen anyone react to. Please!!!

[@feuerklinge9004]

Great reaction! Great song! Great to have you back!

[@A_Heros_Quest]

Great vid Tank, man i love Powerwolf and Sabaton 🤟

[@VIKINGKING95]

Not going to lie this sounds very Sabaton like and I absolutely love it.

[@georgebeswick7549]

Still waiting for the Sabaton/Powerwolf show to be confirmed one day.

[@marquardmeiring618]

Seeing someone else have the same reaction to music as yourself is always fun.

[@fullstackphoenix]

I loved this song. Cant wait to see them live

[@martinat.5274]

Und er rastet schon wieder aus....😂😂😂🤘 Awseome reaction. 🤗

[@aaronbrogdon5973]

I feel like the Sabaton sound is from the keyboards veering away from the pipe organ sound and instead going for the 80s synth vibe that Sabaton uses so often. Definitely a killer song and top 10 Powerwolf song for me

[@joshuafischer684]

I like the pipe organ though, they can't leave that behind imho

[@lngo2328]

@@joshuafischer684 the pipe organ is powerwolf trademark, i doubt that they would leave it so easily

[@Maedrya]

PowerWolf did an amazing job with this song ! In my opinion, this is one if not THE best 2022 song already ! Sabaton + Alestorm vibes, with Attila's voice, who can do better ?

[@kerlongsjorlejov1945]

I really like the song and have been blasting it this entire weekend. I look forward to your take on it.

[@nilshult5115]

Great reaction, it was as fun for me as it was for you. I saw the monumental mass, it was amazing, I am sure it will be released in some form in the future.

[@Ibracadabra2506]

It is a story telling song and that is one of the things that makes it sound like Sabaton

[@kathleenandbruce]

Great song now I can't wait for the rest of the album. But this song spoke to me. Hadn't really listened to Powerwolf before this, but may have to go back and listen to some older stuff. I will look to hear this song again and again now, thanks Tank, this was a good one and a great reaction to something that you obviously enjoyed throughly.

[@dustbunny1977]

This went straight to my spotify playlist! Great reaction as always!🤘🤘

[@sirgecko666]

Yeeeehaw, TheTank is delivering a new reaction to a great song. Didn`t think this day will get any better!

[@dragonforce627]

Awesome reaction man!! This is definitely one of my top favorite Powerwolf songs!!

[@weybye91]

would love to see powerwolf and sabaton make a song together

[@thespectre3054]

I can only imagine the song title: Beast's of War.

[@sobjar10]

+1 Release monumental mass! I absolutely love Powerwolf and missed it! Anywho, great recation/video, Tank! Love your stuff, man!

[@xD3adKl0wnx]

Looks like you got your wish, they just announced a physical release of the Monumental Mass!

[@Thrillrider10]

Seeing you absolutely rock out to the chorus is so fun. Also basically how I reacted when I first heard this one. The chorus is absolutely massive, the overall composition is incredible, the melodies are amazing, and I just love it.

[@kaihalein2525]

I must start to upvote your videos, just because of the awesome sound quality!... And the beard!

[@TankTheTech]

Thanks!

[@arturiuspendragon6849]

Monumental Mass is going to be released July 8. There's a limited edition version with a 96 page earbook along with 2 CD, Blu Ray and DVD that looks awesome.

[@noahstewart518]

fantastic video, how happy you looked when the chorus first hit was priceless haha that is how i feel every time listening to powerwolf Aswell and i totally agree about the guitar solo's powerwolf has some of the best catchiest and most tasteful solo's out of any power metal band

[@roham4822]

have been waiting for this 🔥

[@creeperkilla83]

nice reaction, my new favorite song form powerwolf. Also love the primo victoria by sabaton at the end. great video

[@SunRayz3r]

This actually is the first time I’ve heard this song too. I hadn’t been told nor was made aware of new music from these guys. You mentioned the Sabaton vibes and I heard it too in the first few seconds of the song. I also love the Pirate theme. Great stuff! 🤘🏻

[@frankthetankfrombavaria]

Thanks Tank! You're really getting me hooked to Powerwolf 🤘🏼

[@kingpearlshine]

This is an absolute banger. It reminded me of The Lost Battalion.

[@leonidas6448]

I was waiting for this, Thanks Tank

[@steffen7237]

hey...allready back from vacation...cool :)

[@Reaverx1993]

It seems like the Tank got hooked by captain Hook's hook. 🤘😆 ...so did I. What a beast of a song! I need to know where my repeat button is located.🤔 Greetings from Germany to Powerwolf, Tank and all the metalheads worldwide! :D

[@jannekaanta2884]

Once again a neckbreaker. 🤘❤️🤘

[@cohiba478]

Powerwolf never fails to blow my socks off!!!

[@StefanEngler-rb8lu]

Freakin love Powerwolf! One of my favorite Powerwolf songs among many. I’ve been trying to figure out why I love the guitar solos so much and you nailed it, it’s not shredding. Its actually a part of the tune. Spot on!

[@wolfeys]

I'm so excited to see them together with Dragonforce in December on their Wolfsnächte 2022 tour

[@Calumetto]

Yep some definite Sabaton influence there. I'm all for it. I bet Powerwolf can converse about war history with their Grandpas now.

[@maverickMD]

@The Lorp "Blessed Artillery" is honestly amazing. CAN'T think of a better name for a tour or collaboration song.

[@diegosturba7424]

Onda Sabaton! Saludos de Argentina! Love it Powerwolf!!

[@pin-upmariposa412]

This song strangely remind me Sabaton's songs (as you mention too). Maybe sound and lyric level? Great reaction and headbang. 🙂

[@Ruppe62]

Yes the Opening was definitive a Sabaton opening

[@samuelpearce7294]

An absolutely killer song. Cant wait to see them in November!

[@Metal4Life198821]

Just saw on their Facebook page that they listened to you, the monumental mass is going to be released on dvd!

[@TankTheTech]

So excited for that! I doubt they listened to me, though. Pure coincidence. Haha

[@kaidrache2395]

Once again a great reaction Tank (well, as usual). Love the fact that Napalm Records appreciates your channel as much as we fans do! Oh, and btw - this Powerwolf song is even worse than the Beast of Gevaudan, it takes a while to grow on you, but then it hits hard. Listen to it four or five times and you'll know what I mean. Kudos to Powerwolf for such a phantastic song, this thing is massive.

[@cxpKSip]

I loved it the first time I heard it.

[@mugenokami2201]

Maybe for you but some of us were hooked just from the first lines

[@simonsemaan5043]

Tank, I just wanted to share with you that Powerwolf just announced on their channel “Powerwolf Official” that a physical copy of “The Monumental Mass” will be released this July and people can preorder it.
