- "Hey man, did you know? I'm in a band now!" - "Oh really? That's nice, what instrument do you play?" - "The Wrench and the Anvil!"

[@user-th1fw8my5u]

Where do you find an anvil in C minor?

[@deed5811]

"Do they put their own spin on it?" Like a centrifuge 😂

[@korylinn2251]

They have a GORGEOUS cover of November Rain too!

[@snakewhisperer1]

These guys are really entertaining. They do Dio, Iron Maiden, Metallica, KISS, all in that bluegrass style.

[@BalleChorlin]

2 cellos are waaaay better!

[@garygrab]

@@BalleChorlin 2 cellos are just that. These guys are a band and play different instruments!!

[@kardy12]

Definitely, these guys have done some awesome covers of the trooper, aces high, born to be wild, seek and destroy, etc etc all in their blue grass style. Their cover of nothing else matters was awesome, it made it sound like a completely different song, even if it is still instantly recognisable.

[@Muck006]

... and they are really REALLY GOOD at playing the songs.

[@Muck006]

@@BalleChorlin They dont have anvils, spoons, lawnmowers, ... ... ...

[@Hallstat72]

Some Finnish madness again!!!

[@larryfox4915]

Having binge listened Steve N. Seagulls, I was sure this was going to be one epic reaction.

[@ricolync]

🇫🇮 Welcome to Finland y'all!! 🤠

[@Bluebox-146]

aren´t finish bands the best and most fun bands in the world ? 😂😂😂 Oh man I was soooooooooooo waiting for it, your face was priceless. Hope you do some more of them, there are so many fantastic covers of them, which you will like too. They cover all kinds of bands, like Metallica, Pantera, etc etc wao a 9,1? I hoped you liked it but ...wao!! Think I send you some links in the following days.

[@bea7719]

I just love them! Saw them live last summer, and they just bring pure joy to the audience, and not to forget their talent🥰

[@Hallstat72]

Seen them three times in Tampere Finland, and always funny and totally energetic and same time humble when meeting the audiense. KUDOS

[@kinchegayowie6167]

They are one hell of a band, and musicians in their own right

[@HALberdier17]

They did a Nightwish cover of 'Sleeping Sun' they had Tarja Turunen as the guest vocalist.

[@Adoffka]

I love how sleeping sun is slowly turning to polka BTW if they have the original vocalist for the song, does it still count as cover in your book?

[@THEDavidHeretic]

@@Adoffka Yes, as long as it's a different band/project then I count it as a cover.

[@sakuelovaara2931]

I will recommended this also

[@Adoffka]

@@sakuelovaara2931 rewatched that video and I like the look of Tarja just completely enjoying it on her face.

[@ThielKlenner]

I saw that - it is absolutely brilliant!

[@kerstinsaxberg2629]

Have seen them live and their show is really, really good 😊😄🇫🇮

[@marge2548]

Oh, I am really glad you did this one. I absolutely love it!

[@geertdelange4785]

Fantastic, love it ❤ Great guys from Finland

[@alexandremaireno-ni4ec]

Them doing "November Rain" is a must do!

[@aphaes1]

The November Rain cover blew me away. One my favorites

[@jussiraikkala1482]

You need to see them doing Pantera's Cemetary Gates. In Polka style!

[@JAYZIGGY5]

Wow! I need to see that right now lol

[@michaelgrynnerup6058]

I second that, thats an amazing performance 🔥

[@davidputterman2719]

Priceless reaction! They are really good musicians. They also do Piece of My Heart (Joplin) with Finnish singer Noora Louhimo which is the first song I saw them do. Do yourself a favor and check that one out too.

[@JariJuslin]

Definitely. There are very few living singers who can do Janis justice, and Noora is one of them.

[@michaelgmillhollin2818]

I laughed more at your initial reaction more so than at the video only because I have seen this countless times before and was hoping you'd react exactly as you did. I live in West Virginia and the first time I saw this video my very first thoughts were..."Oh My God, those are my neighbors from down the holler....." I was really surprised to find out they are from Finland. Anyway, I think its great that you not only got to see this video but also provide your reaction and review. Loved it!

[@Yetimon]

Wow! What a score! Take a dip in their back-catalogue - you'll enjoy it!

[@Yaspis]

YES THE HARMONIES! Sorry for shouting, but it's such a treat to see a tech savvy reaction of the Seagulls. (And an old piece too, they were such babies back then -- I remember when this came out and we all flipped our wigs here in Finland lol) You're right about the moonshine, it's honestly telling that you got there before they went into the drinking song like "la-lai-la-la-lai-lai" bits... I think you'd get a kick out of their cover of Still Loving You (for something more produced but just as off-the-wall), Maiden's The Trooper, or their version of Pantera's Cemetary Gates... hell, they even made me enjoy November Rain, which takes some epic doing. Loved your notes on the mix, I don't know what kind of audio wizard they have, but they manage to get a crisp live mix even when crammed into a literal shed somehow.

[@JAYZIGGY5]

Good! I'm glad you went into the 9's. It deserves it just because of the wrench and anvil alone.... I've seen this song a bunch of times unintentionally. I don't know why it keeps popping up but it has for years now.

[@anjizetland-von-kiesel3346]

You can't take it away from them, they are an original and talented bunch of musicians. Unique and awesome.

[@Metal_Auditor]

I love how these Finns have embraced Appalachian culture.

[@grunthostheflatulent9649]

There are plenty of back country in Finland.

[@danbuter]

This was pretty damn cool.

[@danlee77]

The band is from Finland. I love their work.

[@TheJama64]

Put’s a smile on your face always \m/

[@EiriUesugiKun]

Yay for Finland! :D Great cover!

[@gerardstephens58]

Love the react & review format.

[@TheJama64]

Moonshine jug can be found in their version of GNR’s November Rain

[@davidornberg]

They even do Gimme some loving from ZZ Top among sheeps. They tour in the States time to time. Don't miss them. The best medicine if You are in bad mood!

[@jussiraikkala1482]

I've been waiting for this!

[@jonnyberggren4598]

Haha youre face in the beginning..... Priceless!!!

[@RolandTumble23]

This is what they do, covers of (mostly) metal songs, in this style. You'll enjoy most of what they do, and I hope you tape some of it.

[@garyzink1927]

So insightful you are, and funny! I play for friends camping with us and love to watch their reactions. Peace from Northern Michigan.

[@THEDavidHeretic]

FEELIN' YOU Gary!!! Glad to hear you are enjoying the channel.

[@darryldavidson4824]

HA! I comented and subscribed and liked before your video was over! How you like them apples 🤣😂🤣👍

[@DaP84]

They are Finns, Finland. Northern Europe. Neighbour country to us, Sweden.

[@julle006]

You asked where is moonsine: look/watch their "November Rain"!

[@markhoward2811]

They do some pretty unique covers. If you think this is a weird cover, check out 'The Heimatdamisch' doing 'Sweet Child of Mine' in a Bavarian style.

[@michaelgmillhollin2818]

I was literally typing this very same recommendation when I saw your comment, Mark. Great suggestion!

[@KaiHellmann]

Exellent reaction 😅

[@christinaalgate4899]

Love this video

[@Newbihno]

1000th LIKE WOOOOAH! GET INTHERE!

[@anttijaaskelainen3812]

These guys are genius

[@1blastman]

9.9 and check out John Campbell's live cover of Memphis Minnie's "When the Levee Breaks" recorded at Jazzfest in 1993.

[@evaetterer6000]

They also cover Guns and Roses in the same stile like this one ! I love them cause they realy good ! Love you and your reaction and your wife too ! Greatings and love from germany♥️♥️🥰♥️♥️🥰♥️♥️

[@johankaewberg8162]

Your face was purple. So I guess was mine, I had never seen this either. Thank you!

[@amaranthus4206]

That was a fun one for sure.

[@danielmcbride2375]

Again, I love seeing you get surprised by bands with a different twist on cover songs. Props D!

[@MikkoRantalainen]

Great reaction! They have made a lot of covers and every one I've seen has been totally weird twisted but you don't see them doing anything else but perfect performance.

[@brenttuttle7268]

You should hear them cover Iron Maiden.....Run to the hills....it is awesome 👌

[@batmansassy]

Well that was entertaining! I loved it!

[@paulalloyd8860]

You are my FAVORITE reactor. I'm laughing so hard. And I thought they were great!!!

[@greggarvin2663]

Really fun reaction! Never heard of these guys before but I agree that was great. Interestingly I have heard a couple other groups though do Bluegrass style covers of Hard Rock/Metal songs - I think the first I ever heard was a group called Hayseed Dixie doing Ace of Spades - and though it isn't a mix you would expect the two styles do seem to blend really well.

[@miafranlund6982]

I was sitting here with a big smile on my face, waiting for your reaction as the video started. The look on your face? Priceless!! As corny as they might seem on first glance, the guys are talented musicians and have made some pretty good covers.

[@KaiHellmann]

Moonshine is in November Rain video

[@bryanporter2240]

This was fantastic

[@CarlosSierralta]

They’re so great and fun

[@ragulper]

They're not the only band doing that kind of covers. Buck Sawtooth did a great cover of Maidens Run To The Hills.

[@blanewilliams5960]

Wow, I am shocked at that score! Not that I don't think it was deserved, I was hoping for at least an 8. That was fantastic and very entertaining, I friggin' love it and doing to look them up and see what else they do. Absolutely loved your reaction and agree with all you had to say, Thanks David!

[@detroitpolak9904]

Yeah…they put their own spin and flavor you could say.

[@jymzhetfield5420]

I have to say it’s funny but is great!…great reaction btw!. And David I see the shirt you have is a beast in balck one!. I remember when you reacted to them!. I never thought you’d like them!… 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@THEDavidHeretic]

I saw them perform live, and it totally changed my opinion of them. Watch the Nightwish Concert Review video and you'll see me take back all the things I said about them and how amazed I was by their live show.

[@jymzhetfield5420]

@@THEDavidHeretic man, this only happens in rock/metal music, our music os so rich , we have the chance to rewind and then hear the true power, I watched your reaction that day and I was like, damn it, believe it or not , people sometimes wait to hear you guys with the reaction channels to say all positive, but hey, like you always say, you’ll be honest, and that something I like, I’m happy to read you and and know that you enjoyed that show, I haven’t had the chance, hopefully someday, florida is not a much metal state!. Peace David. I will see you on the next one. God bless you.

[@axx6435]

This is doing a cover right and it brings me great joy.

[@MikkoRantalainen]

According to Wikipedia, they have already toured in 25 countries.

[@johnsmith_1942]

9.4! Well done Seagulls! Nightwish covered Pink Floyd and they got 8.8.

[@Roosa612]

👍🏻👏🏻

[@lakelili]

Finnish bluegrass! They are they best... love Steve'N Seagulls!

[@FunkyMonk4Life]

Never heard of these guys but I believe their name is a play on Steven Segal. Could be wrong, tho.

[@paulriddle7818]

It isn't it's completely unrelated. The guys have dispelled this myth.

[@MikkoRantalainen]

You don't even know what's stripped down drum kit until you see their PANTERA "Cemetery Gates" performance from Union Square Park, NYC in 2015. The drummer used Samsonite luggage as a kick drum there, with the handle bouncing around in the beat.

[@joonasvahasalo6635]

Seen them live. I love them

[@StoneShards]

That's a genre-bending blast! hahaha...I've seen a rockabilly rendition of "Ace of Spades", which was great, too! A great novelty song...

[@Pasteinen]

Haha Nice reaction :D

[@fincars.]

Moonshine is in an another cover. Keep watching:)

[@roberthoward885]

Like that watch November rain

[@matthewdrake4385]

They cover other rock bands in this European bluegrass style. I believe the band is from Finland. Hadn't seen the video in ages, but I enjoy their covers. You should also check out 2 Cellos, I think it's two brothers who play rock music on those instruments. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@vincentdarrah]

They are a Bluegrass band from Finland. They have done "You Shook Me All Night Long" I was made for loving you by KISS, MASTER OF PUPPETS by Metallica. They are terrific musicians

[@GrimlarLex]

You should also look at the 2Cello's version

[@anshelmvonvinien5688]

saw them at the nova rock festival. they are multi-instrumentalist. they are fun. they are great

[@astonsfan]

Pickin' on Pink Floyd: A Bluegrass Tribute.......look it up!!! They also do other bands and it rocks !!!!

[@canis64]

you have to do "The two cellos" version too!

[@AriMalatesta]

You've been thunderstruck.... ;-)

[@frankroos1167]

More seagulls needed. Much more.

[@tomreynolds4141]

You should check out 2 cellos cover of thunderstruck

[@donaldriddle230]

There was a group several years ago called Hayseed Dixie who mostly did ACDC covers in Bluegrass format.

[@EneriGiilaan]

You asked for moonshine ... just check their take on November Rain (Guns N' 'Roses cover) ...

[@chrisbateman5358]

This is great... reminds me of another group called Iron Horse that does bluegrass versions of songs like these guys.

[@user-th1fw8my5u]

You know there's a tribute band in Australia that's still trying to get this song right.

I'll give this reaction to Steve'n'Seagulls. Hopefully they watch. :)

[@THEDavidHeretic]

That would be great if the filmed themselves reacting to my reaction of their song....and then I film my reaction to their reaction of my reaction to their song....and we just keep it going and going and going.

@@THEDavidHeretic That would be... FINception. :D

[@jefferywarburton2116]

I can't help but wonder what a cover of Sabbath's The Wizard would be like, and laugh.

[@Rothe8]

Watch their cover of November rain, the moonshine is there. And a great song to boot....

[@arnodobler1096]

The Death South are also great ❤Cello playing as a guitar

[@mweskamppp]

For the moonshine view their version of November Rain...

[@joanneward5599]

We are in FINLAND! These guys are so dope if you watch them actually LIVE in concert they kick ass! Check out their youtube channel for some very entertaining videos! They do many many songs for you to check out! Drove from Michigan to Kentucky last year to see them live. They have been touring all over the world! If you get a chance to go see them please do yourself a favor and go! I am a 63 year old woman and love them! No kidding!

[@ernotuulivaara5022]
