UNLEASH THE BERSERKER! Amon Amarth with Saxons and Vikings reaction!

The mighty Saxon... One of the bands guilty of making me a metalhead back in the seventies.

[@thomasdaub5445]

I saw Saxon in Frankfurt last week. still awesome

[@deniseduncan7363]

Holy Shit! I've never heard of either of these bands. Now I have 2 rabbit holes to explore!!! Thanks Viking.

[@elvwood]

I had no idea Saxon would be in this so I laughed when I heard Biff's voice! Such perfect "casting". I expect you've at least heard their anthem _Denim_ _and_ _Leather_ if nothing else. All being well I'll be seeing them supporting Judas Priest in a couple of months' time!

[@morilot]

My 9 yo son loves Amon Amarth. In August I will take him to see them live. 🤘

[@Pammie1221]

Holy battle-ax! I feel like going to the North Sea coast and finding a medieval battle to fight. WOW! I think you were like these warriors in a past life. You become one of them when you feature these videos. 🇳🇴 🇬🇧

[@petter5721]

Dude, if you like viking rock… You have to listen to the band: Hulkoff, song: Einherjr 🤘🏻

[@Bear230grain]

The artistry and dynamic between both bands in this song is epic. True metal

[@zsuzsanna1416]

Hail Viking! Long live the Vikings and the Saxons. 😅 Metal forever 🤘

[@01VASB]

The 80's NWOBHM band is called Saxon. You definetely check out theis songs , especially "Crusader", their biggest hit!

[@petter5721]

[@ferminvictor576]

Hi metal heads😊💀😈🎸🎸 SAXON IS A LEYEND in the. british heavy metal 🇬🇧🇬🇧 biff biford a great singer saxon forever and VIKINGS yeeaahh ❤

[@jona.874]

Saxon was formed in 1975 in Barnsley, England.

[@lauraswain80]

Love this!!🤘🔥 When Johan wrote it he said he had to have Biff and the boys on it - there was simply no other choice 👊😁

[@Crom64]

100% with you. I have loved both Saxon and Amon Amarth for years but I heard Saxon first as a og metal band years go. I watched this reaction until the end and and had just binged watched Vikings Valhalla in the last 2 weeks. I was probably was late on this, but loved the reaction. Be proud of your heritage

[@Thnielsen85]

This is a perfect mix of sub genres! Oldschool heavy metal/power metal works perfectly with melodic death metal 🤘 Epic song! Love Amon Amarth, and Saxon are pretty good too 😉

[@khelatar]

An incredible collab, and not just the vocals. The Saxon guitarists have a different style from their AA colleagues but their solos fit in perfectly with this song. Biff's vocals are legend. I first heard Saxon back in '81, metal growling wasn't a thing yet (the closest you'd get was Lemmy) but you could often hear people comment about Biff "Does he have to sound so angry?" :)

[@emmakirk9194]

Saxon done a song called Predator, which includes the vocals of Johann Hegg

[@linhager12]

That was actually very good.... thank you❤

[@VikingReacts]

Happy you liked it :). I had a blast!

[@zsuzsanna1416]

I agree

[@linhager12]

@@VikingReacts lol yes you did

[@petter5721]

Amon Amarth always drink from his horn on stage, they are just awesome 🤘🏻

[@suepoole8323]

Passed me by way back then Viking, was busy with my 2 young kids, (both older than you are, got 2 younger than you also.) will be making up those lost years in the next couple of days now though.. that was Epic loved your reaction of course, infectious enthusiasm my headbanging is not as good as it was, but sure am working on it. All the best in the new job.. if any one can it's you. till the next time night all

[@brittjannesath2539]

Yepp, a banger of a song and video 😀

[@adiwild]

i have been a amon amarth fan since 1998/1999 and they are awesome, but i have been a saxon fan since 1987 and they are fucking amazing, pure rock/metal

[@GrandmasGotGraceLW]

Carlos...I wrote a whole comment, but it contained the addresses about the BAND. It won't stick. I copied the entire thing before reloading the tab to see if it WOULD stick, and when it didn't, I pasted it into the notification page on PATREON. It did try it again, with particulars that didn't include the addresses (and I don't dare use the real words for THAT word...sigh), but...nope. So...here's the watered down comment, so that at least that part will be shown here... - - - - - - - - - - At 4:07, when the second army (the Saxons...right?) shows its face, the man singing the song reminded me VERY strongly of John Schlitt (from Petra), in both sound and looks. INTERESTING! I'm thinking this would be a great song for Dan Vasc to cover, because he could do both sides! 😀 The guy I'm talking about, is the one about whom you asked, "Who IS this guy..." and asked about the different band. The band is ACTUALLY called...SAXON! The Amon Amarth, of course, are...The Vikings. What fun! 😀 That battle scene is extremely EPIC! Wow! (I typed that BEFORE you said it, by the way! Grin) The WIKI article informs us that the band WAS still there in 2023 (it lists all the change-ups for it, but...yup...it still seems to be intact). Regarding the "demon voice," that is probably pretty much why some people thought that Dan had given himself over TO an actual demon voice. Most people have NO idea what a REAL demon might sound like. All they have EVER heard is what's been put into movies and songs. I KNOW what a demon's voice sounds like. Guess what...most of the time, that would NOT be it. That doesn't mean I'm not agreeing with you about the sound of the voice, because that's exactly what they were going for, I would say. 😀 I LOVE THIS! IT WAS GREAT! Loved how you loved it, as well. 😀

[@thomasdaub5445]

This song is so fn cool. Nothing more to say, instand a classic

[@kipram108]

Absolutely love Johan and all amon amarth 🤘

[@NordicMeatShield]

The other band is Saxon from England, 1970's rock band

[@greggkonitski743]

If you want to check out Saxon check out their Broken hero's video great tune!

[@tompabay8721]

BEOUWOLF 🤘🤘🤘🤘💖

[@debbierichardson9009]

While I confess to not knowing either band when the guy with the white hair sang it reminded me a little of Eli from voiceplay when he unleashes his full high rock belt

[@VikingReacts]

Yes! Absolutely!

[@coletedeux]

This is epic. Thank you. Check out Deloraine, "Ragnarok". Cinematography is wonderful and the story told is the final battle. The Shield Maiden and the Seeress, the traditional instruments all weave a spell.

[@thomas.m0par]

There is alot of old school Heavy tunes to explore among Saxons records. And listen to Biffs voice at age 70!

[@Patryn71]

His birthday was yesterday, January 15. He's now 73. So probably 72 when this was filmed and recorded. Insane.

[@Murvelhund]

Yes Amon Amarth has a tendency to give you an dompamin shot.

[@Green_Manalishi666.5]

The band is called Saxon

[@djooennepen]

Carlo, it 's me again! Don't know what other later Amon Amarth songs you know , but Heidrun is from the same Great Heathen Army album. Bit more pop-metal if you may call it that. And there's the song Put Your Back Into The Oar. Also another epic song from just 2 or 3 years back

[@metalheadholly6941]

You have to check more of Amon Amarth songs few of the fastest is embrace the endless ocean and twilight of the thunder god!! Makes me mosh and goto war lol

[@uweklein2181]

Saxon gibt es gefühlt 100 Jahre.🤘cool wie du mitgehst.Saxon wurde gegründet 76 i just Born.great voice.sry ich schreibe in deutsch spanisch.english.you are a great metalfan🤘Salut. Prost.

[@tjxrick4139]

You should do "Heidrun" next great song, and it makes me laugh everytime I listen to it.

[@petter5721]

They are great 🤘🏻

[@uhtredragnarsson8961]

You not listen The Great Heathen Army album yet...damn man..this song and Heidrun are best song's on album..and maybe not know Johan was quest on Saxon album Thunderbolt..they have amazing chemistry together..Bif and Johan work good together..

[@chrisgrunnn]

i think this song Feuerschwanz - Die Hörner Hoch would be a fun song for you to react to

[@HellBrYnger]

for 5:02 's you shall react to SAXON - 747 (mabey care what the brackets say)

[@DerekDerekDerekDerekDerekDerek]

Biffs voice might not be as intimidating as Amon amarths but it makes sense to have them here and they are great. We can get an english death metal band if we are compsring distorted vocals😂

[@karenm5681]

I must admit, the fact that there were men wearing sunglasses and glasses to go to a Viking battle took me completely out of the moment and made the scene not really believable. Like as soon as they come to the edge of the forest…ah, there’s Wal-Mart! (Loved the beat/drums though.)

[@jimharris367]

Um, New wave of British Heavy Metal legends Saxon 🤔

[@DerekDerekDerekDerekDerekDerek]

Biff is in his 70s!

[@terryminten4695]

How about some brothers of metal reactions killer Viking mythology songs

[@ivaylopapazov-zx2kw]

как може да слушаш метъл и да не знаеш кои са саксън и кой е биф?

[@Hadesillo]

Hey dude check Lovebites, chick Heavy Metal band from Japan, you won't find better guitars this times. The track Holy War for example.

[@DerekDerekDerekDerekDerekDerek]

The anglo saxons weren't aristocratic... they fought alongside their people!

[@bangarang735]

You should check out Peyton parrish

[@uncle_thulhu]

More like Death Metal vs Power Metal.

[@JackiedeQuincey]

Wow! I want to go and invade Britain oh hang on I live there 😂

[@VikingReacts]

So you get to invade it daily!

[@LordOfSweden]

It's a great song! But obviously we scandinavians won in the end, and came back and conquered them a second time as Normans. So vikings win again. 😉 Just joking, I love my anglosaxon bros.

Never have liked "reaction" videos, but this have to be one of the worst. And not to know Saxon... damn.
