ROADIE REACTIONS | "Nekrogoblikon - No One Survives" | [FIRST TIME EVER LISTENING]

[@everett880]

If you’d like to hear more of their range, I suggest Powercore. But if you want a continuation to this video, We Need a Gimmick 🤙🏻

[@oxxification]

And then Dressed As Goblins!

[@stephenbaxter5804]

@@oxxification and The Magic Spider! or The Many Faces of Hubert Malbec

[@tea_time_t]

The first time I heard these guys they were doing a concert with Wind Rose and Gloryhammer. That was a fantastic trio of weird metal.

[@cellus8myhand]

These guys are so fun live! Their videos for “The Many Faces of Dr. Hubert Malbec”, “Darkness”, and “Powercore” are all live videos if you want to see that side of them next. Although they embrace their gimmick and have a good time, they are so musically talented and deserve all the attention they can get

[@agnetalykins7564]

"What the fuck is going on?" That is the appropriate reaction to seeing Nekrogoblikon for the first time.

[@Wuthahn_]

They were my last show before lockdown. Saw them as support of Glorryhammer :D Which is funny because as per Glorryhammer lore they are at war with the goblin king.

[@Rubbish_]

You should check out their newest stuff. My personal favorite is Row from Welcome to Bonkers. The second half of the song gets insane.

[@cristiaolson7327]

Check "We Need a Gimmick" If you want some more fun, not taking things seriously, good sense of humor but still great music kinda stuff, check the following songs: "Valhalleluja" or "And Then I Noticed That She Was a Gargoyle" by Nanowar of Steel "Gloryhammer" or "Hootsforce" by Gloryhammer "Diggy Diggy Hole" by Wind Rose You will get all of them stuck in your head, I promise. But they're fun, and the music is solid, so it's ok.

[@loot5532]

All of these are solid representations of each band.

[@rachelelizabeth425]

I have all those songs on a playlist for when I need a good laugh or just for some fun. Nothing better than talented bands with a sense of humor!

[@cristiaolson7327]

@@rachelelizabeth425 Same.

[@BeOtterMyFriend]

What about Norwegian Reggaeton?

[@JackXombi]

I just got Diggy Diggy Hole out of my head. I ain't even mad though.

[@davidphillips9726]

The melding of the guitar and keyboard solos this band does are INSANE

[@donhitt2691]

Didnt even realize you did this. I love this band, they just released a new single aswell :) John (Goblin) also wrote a book.... that of course I bought.

[@cherrypitcyanide]

Nekrogoblikon - Powercore is my favourite!!

[@loot5532]

I'm not typically a fan of the singing style, but I love this band because it's totally entertaining from the content

[@cruiserbrewser]

They are amazing live. Saw them twice this year with GWAR.

[@Urankeksbaecker]

You need to check out any song from Nekrogoblikon's recent album. It's such a huge jump in quality from back then, it's honestly baffling how far they have come. The whole album is a blast.

[@pillowfightchampion1988]

100 percent

[@Samsquantch82]

Absofuckinglutely. The Fundamental Slimes and Humours is my most-listened to album of the year and it's not even close.

[@eligra]

And then Nicky left...

[@ion_force]

Wow. Compared to most reaction channels, this is actually very informative and contains more than just a basic first impression of the song. You actually provided some tank facts and some of the lore of the band. Neat.

[@SandraNelson063]

I have never felt sorry for a goblin before.

[@antcommander1367]

i don't, Beside's Finish Troll's Rules

[@corpsethorn882]

🤘🏻Nekro rocks man. Sending love from Indy 💪🏻

[@brandydynamite5877]

This is great video, fun videos are usually far more entertaining than watching the band just standing there miming to a song.

[@comarising6]

I would recommend "we need a gimmick" and "powercore". This band is so unique I absolutely adore them. Unfortunately they don't have many great live recordings, I feel like they have a lot of technical problems live.

[@Markucio27]

Love to see you reacting to this, I love this band. Their song Powercore, the official video is taken from a live show, so you should check that out.

[@tearlebuck3203]

They did release a mini-documentary about that music video about 2 weeks ago. 16 minutes long, worth the watch

[@gwaptiva]

One of the few bands you've featured I have had in my playlist for a long time. Where King Diamond meets Alestorm. They do kinda fit into that novelty act category, with Lagerstein and Swashbuckle

[@jozseflorincz4640]

Tank-error correction correction: In 2024, John Goblikon became their actual line-up clean singer. :D

[@wm1982]

Do Powercore, it's a video with a lot of live material of them.

[@StickyofTheDead]

I'm not even going to wait to thumbs up this one 🤣

[@KatherinaBathory]

Same here

[@henrisallinen555]

Check out Finntroll. Finnish folk metal sang in Swedish with lyrics about trolls fighting Christians etc. Trollhammaren, Rivfader or Jaktens Tid are all great introduction songs to Finntroll.

[@TankTheTech]

LOVE Finntroll!

[@wamslaah]

Gotta check out "Dressed as Goblins" by them. Fun vid, too :)

[@Skajaw]

How about Pirate-Themed Metal? Alestorm is your band for this :D

[@AnqaOdyssey]

I have seen them live! I love listening to them at gym.

[@Teddy-pf8yy]

It's funny because that is the same way I am driving around in my car half the time lol. Especially recently listening to Unleash the Archer's new album. Speaking of which, really hoping you react to something of their's again soon.

[@TankTheTech]

I will soon!

[@Teddy-pf8yy]

@@TankTheTech Sweet! Looking forward to it.

[@crazypete345]

Defenally go check out Neckrogoblinkon's Powercore it shows the band members in the music video

[@EpicMRPancake]

If you're looking for actual live footage of these guys, a channel called 'Robin Maertz' has a bunch of them with great quality sound. Worth checking out for their banter with each other and the crowd in between songs. As songs go, I like Bells and Whistles, and Invasion, although the latter has no live recordings anywhere.

[@TheNigotube]

Yeees! You should check up John's talkshow, RIGHT NOW! Also, if you want a live video, check out their song "The Many Faces of Dr. Hubert Malbec"

[@ragingstorm79]

Awesome band, Powercore, The Many Faces of Doctor Hubert Malbec (if you wanna see a "live" video), Dragons, Magic Spider, Dressed as Goblins

[@sha1tan138]

Funny during Saturday's live stream i asked you about Nekrogoblikon.....now i know why i didnt get an answer 😄 Check out Dressed as goblins or Powercore

[@CrazyTasteyPi]

Someone probably already said it by now, but you're assumption is right that it's just Jon Goblikon that is a goblin. Though some of their songs suggest that the rest of the band miiiight also be goblins that are wearing Human suits. Far as his role in the band though, Jon is supposed to be the bands manager as I understand it, not their front man. :p

[@four20jerm]

Since you dug this check out their cover of Chop Suey. I'm sure you know SoaD so I think you'd dig the spin they put on it.

[@Zakofidea]

You gotta do so much more Nekrogoblikon! They are brilliant!

[@Nighteye2]

They're pretty nice. If you like metal that doesn't take itself too seriously, you may also enjoy Grailknights - Pumping Iron Power (feat. Joakim Brodén from Sabaton) Superhero metal, and they do show their instruments in the music video :)

[@chaosultimamage]

They don't have music videos from any of their earlier stuff, and I don't know of any great live videos, but I'd definitely try to hit a song from the first album - either "They Came From Space" or "Goblin Island", it's more themed around the goblins arriving on earth and the lore, it's much sillier, and has some more folky and electronic elements. After their 2nd album, they take a bit of a turn more towards metalcore and just being really goofy, in general, which is still fine for the most part, but I don't care for as much.

[@liabowden8526]

Should I assume you've already heard Blood Red Head On Fire by Big Dumb Face (yes, that Wes Borland band)? I was listening to that and remembered that this video existed and was delighted to see you reacted to it. Sadly there is no good video of the song, at best there's a shitty recording of a live performance (in speedos, why am I not surprised...) Loved your reaction to this.

[@Rattles02]

Hey Tank, check out some of their new ones. Bones is really good! BTW, Nekrogoblikon is awesome live.

[@1972cd]

Not a band that I will listen too very much, but the Video was a riot and had me laughing. Enjoyed your reaction to the song and your thoughts on it, have a great one.

[@monstercookies2726]

Ain't no gear talk on this one for sure! But the vid was hilarious. Check out its sequel 'We Need a Gimmick' next, it picks up where the video ended.

[@suzannekratosmaker7484]

Every time I look up a song to listen to the first recommended suggestion after is Tank's reaction to it. I dunno if us weirdos just enjoy all the same shit or if he's subliminally affecting my music taste.

[@jaega4247]

Fun review and reaction. I think people should stop recommending videos where you can't see the instruments though. One of the things I like most about Tank's reactions are the pop-up facts and comments about band/performance specifics, including what they are playing and what kind of props they are using on stage etc. More studio/live sessions! :)

[@UltimateGamerCC]

Nekrogoblikon covered Chop Suey lately, you get to see the band, their gear and a FUNNY video, check it out NOW dude!

[@TankTheTech]

I’ve heard the cover already but haven’t seen the video! I’ll check it out!

[@caressofhyde]

dope video hahaha love that disco part

[@Destros2ndone]

that you have a gobling, doing stuff in a concept single/album style in the videos, is probably one of the most unique band gimmicks out there beside GWAR or Heavysaurus (not talking about the music style) not a real fan of the music itself but the overall idea is brilliant ^^ in this way, i still would suggest "the ocean - the great dying" or "jurassic" (the newer single) prog metal at it's finest ;)

[@deadmanwalking7953]

My favorite band

[@tarmotyyri6733]

Greetings from Finland! Never heard of "Goblin metal" (a.k.a. melodic death metal) before, but after this I became an instant fan of this band. However, when you listen to this, you'll wish you'd actually had a tank as this sounds as if they used a heavy machine gun as one of the instruments: Anaal Nathrakh - Forward! (OFFICIAL) kzbin.info/www/bejne/gp7PoJxnp8ilm9U

[@adambettis8025]

Power core! I think it's one of there best performances and it's a live official video

[@Dilly-Winkus]

Lmao that video was a wild ride! 👍🤘

[@natashka1982]

The video kills me, esp the part where he gets bullied at the meeting and Brad doing goblin ears with his hands.

Love this band, so many great songs.

[@jakexe3009]

WOOT NEKROGOBLIKON! Check out powercore for a live video.

[@mattofthedead3960]

Check out powercore, its mostly live footage so you can check out the gear and see John Goblinkons awesome moves, plus the song is a banger.

[@mattofthedead3960]

P.S. never clicked on a video faster than when i saw you were reacting to this

[@TankTheTech]

Hahahaha. Awesome, man. Thanks!

[@IrradiatedFist]

I just want to see you react to "The Oceans" "The Great Dying" keep up the fantastic work and always love hearing the gear end of the performance

[@marcelabrack]

Looking forward to more Ayreon reactions, from the Universe would be amazing. Everybody Dies

[@liesdamnlies3372]

How about Queen Dies or Şeytanu Akbar by Ignea? The latter is...provocative, to say the least. (It means "Satan is Great". And no, this suggestion isn't related to the video. Ignea is oriental metal.)

[@russellparker9901]

Didn't like this band at first listen a few years ago. Now it's one of my top rotations. Watch the making of this video. They went from playing to 20 people to headlining a European tour over night after this video came out. How many packs of gummi bears do you have with all that amazing VG gear in the background. Also funny, when they were approached to do a video the band responded by saying we aren't gwar we don't dress up.

[@TankTheTech]

Hahaha. My wife eats all the gummies.

[@russellparker9901]

@@TankTheTech my kids get the gummies. We have started a tradition. My boys play traveling soccer so we now always show up to away games with the vg nobody likes us we don't care flag and wear our two slaughter to prevail masks and blasting demolisher or ABRB in dying days.

sounds bomb. feel some CoB vibes too. like it.

Watch Sex Mashineguns or theKanmuri, they both dont'take themself that serious and have great sound and technique. try SexMashineguns- Mikan no Uta (live with C.V. Panther) its old and low quality but shows them in their best formation. they got some really great music videos too, but I recommend to first watch the videos, then look up the translation of the vocals and watch the videos again.

[@nightwishlover8913]

That part at 3.00 reminds me of "Dreamchaser" by Amberian Dawn - ANOTHER Symphonic/power metal band from Finland. Strangely, they have a keyboard player called Tuomas ( Seppälä ) and a guitarist called Emppu ( Emil Pohjalainen ). Sound familiar? Unfortunately, that's pretty much the only good thing I can say about this...

[@mn6334]

They have a pretty good cover of Chop Suey. I don't know if there's a video to go with it because most of their stuff I've listened to has been on Spotify.

[@TankTheTech]

I checked it out and definitely liked it due to how unique it was.

[@chriswicecarver3715]

It's very strange. It sounds like there are three or four different musical things going on...almost all layered on top of one another. The electronic vibe at about 6:25 was very cool. Just super-wierd.

[@chriswicecarver3715]

I really didn't communicate the thought in my head very well. Imagine pressing play on Dokken, Whitesnake, Stryper, and Iron maiden...each one coming out of it's own speaker...press play at the same time one each one. You record that mis-mosh of 4 things at once. Mentally that what it sounds like I'm listening to.

[@miguelrodriguez-qm3mq]

I was hoping you would react to this band, great videos and the music had some interesting twists. Powercore next or we need a gimmick for the continuacion of the video. Spam: havukruunu - uinuos syömein sota

Welcome to Goblin Metal. Now prepare yourself for Nedal via Okilly Dokilly (band) White Wine Spritzer (song). A metal band of Ned Flanders.

Seconded! Though I think as a song I like Reneducation better than White Wine Spritzer. They're fun music, though.

[@yuishishido8780]

You know, it’s kinda funny. It used to be I hated this kind of metal. I thought it was too hard to understand what they were saying. Yet the more I listen to it the more I fall in love with it. Oddly enough, the easier it becomes to understand the lyrics.
