I totally dug it, thank you for stopping by and taking the time to leave a comment

Hi. Greetings from Germany. The missing instrument is called Hurdy Gurdy. The bands name is Saltatio Mortis and they use the Hurdy Gurdy and Bagpipes in all/most of there songs (Folk Rock/Medieval Rock). The singers name is Alea der Bescheidene (Alea the humble). Lara Loft is a german voice actress and twitchstreamer. To my know she doesn't have a own band, but had different appearances in a german casting show (The voice of germany).

I think something like this can come more often, like once a month you react to something you've stumbled upon. The gushing and geeking is quite entertaining ;)

[@THEDavidHeretic]

Might not be a bad idea, maybe put it to a vote on the channel and see if The Fanbase would be down for it.

[@juxtapoxymoron]

I am so glad for your curiosity, your find, and this reaction. Thanks a lot! Cheers from Germany 🤘

Lara Loft, real name Lara Trautmann, is a German Twitch steamer and voice actress. Among others, she gave her voice to the young Lara Croft in Rise of the Tomb Raider, Piper in Fallout 4, Sombra in Owerwatch and Eveline in Resident Evil 7. In her streams she often sings and on her KZbin channel there are also some tribute songs to various games (Ori and the Will of the Wisps, Destiny 2, Hitman,...). In the Metal area I think it was the first time with Saltatio Mortis. But it sounded so great that I really hope she will do more with them.

[@evifes9182]

Her cover of "Let it go" is good too (got 2 nieces)

[@reshopheda4616]

And she gave her voice the little creepy thing in RE 8

The bands name Saltatio Mortis is latin for Dance of Death. They're a staple among German Medieval Metal bands. I totally love their game covers but also their original songs. Their Singer is Alea der bescheidene (Alea the humble) Jörg Roth. They have two bagpipe players and a Hurdy Gurdy player for their medieval flair. The Hurdy Gurdy comes with strings that create a constant drone (kinda similar to bagpipes) and playable strings for melody too. Also check out their version of My Mother Told Me, where Alea had to practice some icelandic singing or some of their original stuff like Spielmann's Schwur (Gleeman's oath) live at Wacken, Nie allein (Never alone) or Besorgter Bürger (concerned citizen).

Great choice! You should do a "DH's song of the month" regularly 😁 Lara Loft is a German singer, voice actress, twitch streamer. She has her own KZbin channel, you can browse through her stuff see if you find something interesting. Beware lot's of German 😂

[@farin71]

Please check Saltatio Mortis - My Mother told me and Schandmaul/Saltatio Mortis/Feuerschwanz - Königsgarde (Kings Guard)

[@bobafett1313]

Skyrim will always be my favorite video game of all time, so much nostalgia from this and I’m going to go ahead and play it again lol.

[@HALberdier17]

I was waiting for this one since I saw the community post about May's videos.

[@klaymor73]

Fus Ro Dah!!!!!! I'm a simple man, you're a big fan of Skyrim... so insta like. i'll see the video when finish work

[@OneLifeIsNotEnough-d9p]

Please please please do the Song my mother told me by Saltatio Mortis. Its my most beloved Song from this group. And the Video is breathtaking

[@imrehundertwasser7094]

Alea (aka Jörg), the singer of Saltatio Mortis (which is the band you saw), does it all wearing hearing aids BTW ... He had some health problems 10 years ago or so, and as a result his hearing gradually got worse. When he finally realized that he got the hearing aids. Does concerts with them and everything, so they seem to work well.

[@jo_g.germany]

Coming back to this one. You aware that 2 days ago they came out with their latest track "I pray to the Hunter", which is about the new upcoming game. Good song, video ha LotR quality!

[@archangelscalling]

Second that. Great song and video

[@THEDavidHeretic]

someone just requested that song on the Patreon page, so it's now in the que.

[@taz2491]

@@THEDavidHeretic and they do watch reactions too. I think Alea their singer popped up here in your comments too :D

[@THEDavidHeretic]

@@taz2491 Looks like he did, I pinned it.

[@marcelczarnowske4123]

The moment you said, you like Skyrim, I knew how this would turn out :)

[@rnowak85]

Great reaction. Totally concur on the score. You should checkout their version of My Mother Told Me (a different version was used in the TV series Vikings) . Another cool song and the video production is pretty amazing. Alea is the name of the male singer.

[@reneim]

Instrument is a Hurdy Gurdy. Its a String Instrument. Here the great Artist Patty Gurdy explains how it works: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZLEno2hlsmMrNE Here more in Detail: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqubeY2ked5gpZI

[@fredbarnes2600]

You should really react to your own picks occasionally, maybe once a month, or perhaps the missus'. As for the song and band I am a fan.

[@Nas_Khan]

How was The Warning concert DH? Can’t wait to see your review 🤘😊

[@zephyr835]

Feelin' _you_ as a fellow Skyrim fan! Best money I've ever spent on a game, because I've been playing it for about ten years (and counting). And even with that, I haven't memorized the constellations on the stones. :) What is/was your favorite playstyle? I was thinking an 8.4 or 8.5 for this, though my reasoning isn't as thorough. I love the dynamics, instrumentation, and the lyrics taken from two songs in the game along with a few the band added. Also, I wouldn't mind you taking some more self-requests.

[@THEDavidHeretic]

I usually go with a rogue build: stealth, pickpocketing, lockpocking, dual-wield and archery. Whatever is leftover I put into alchemy and smithing.

[@davidstephen6753]

@@THEDavidHeretic Yeah, Wood Elf as a stealthy archer with single handed dagger as a back up is my favourite build. For the last 2 years I've fantasised around how epic a Tuomas Holopeinen score might be on an Elder Scrolls game, or am I nuts?

[@THEDavidHeretic]

@@davidstephen6753 Nope I could see that.

[@homegnome2429]

And Tuomas is a massive Skyrim geek too, so you never know! Personally I still prefer Oblivion though.

[@evifes9182]

You can bet, you will get songs from Gloryhammer with Thomas to react🤣

[@HALberdier17]

He did like Thomas Winkler as Odin in 'Valhalleluja' by Nanowar of Steel if I'm not mistaken.
