Amoral - Soldiers Under Command (live)

[JoeGibb]

Very nice cover! I would agree that death metal vocals don't mesh very well with Stryper, but whatever. Good vocals, they just don't fit the music.

[markitoxpowermetal]

the best styper cover!!! very good band!!!

[markitoxpowermetal]

nice cover!!!!

[stryperken]

this gives total credit to Stryper and their influence. I've watched this many times, love it! Not everyone does the song the same, Amoral made it their own. I like that.

[diegofkda]

no dude, i don't like this D=

This kind of voice... i don't like )=

[JFORRIBEIRO]

esse louco ai gritandooo OÔÔOÔÔÔÔÔ uma drogaaa

[EnDiHjobi]

Possibly as good as the original. Awesome!

[jezuzfreek777]

man the singer is great.. the growler sounds good but not for this song.

[tgwdoughboy]

This is cool, why are people in an uproar over this? Not the first Death Metal group to cover the song either.

And for those that want to really complain at least admit this isn't the Sweet Family Music tribute album :)

[WhomDoYouServe]

The singing is pretty darn good, the scream Cookie Monster stuff I don't think fits.

[JQHeart]

I like it. I agree with Knightwingz, this definately shows Strypers influence- reguardless of how they play it, and I'm a Stryper fan from way back.

[elevenknives0]

amoral is frking greatband (would be more if ari koivunen would be kicked out) stop hating this live. they respect stryper fully. they play it well they have clean singer (2nd one singer whit red panties) strypers version is cool too but both are samelike still. amoral ftw (ari koivunen must die)

[MrRokkikokki]

No hitto X-factory.n mieshän siellä vetää!

[idedock]

Christian Palin Finnish x-factor tonight (guy in red pants who sings).

[thwtdatl]

Great stryper cover! Lovin' it!

[4M0R4L]

Sure! Once you've read through lyrics of Sex 'N Satan, you won't need an answer any more. And everyone complaining should understand that they decided to play this just for fun. Not because they wanted to make You guys feel bad and confused :D Stryper has been a huge influence for Ben and this is one kind of cover. Don't like it? That's ok. Just try to understand that Stryper guys don't feel bad about this. Why should you? God bless you guys. Cut these guys some slack :D

[RAFLAMOLAO]

omg this sucks so bad.

why would u mess up soldiers under command liek this? pshh wat a fag the one who is screaming the whole time

[cwoneal]

This is a great twist on a great song! Im just trying to figure out what side of the fence they are on...

[tmwnat]

This is a fucking joke, right...Hey God bless 'em for the good word & all...But c'mon ...they sound awful...nahhhh, this is a goof

[rickrife]

sad

[kishhh777]

i got an even better question

why would this band ruin the song by "screaming" instead of singing it right

[Kaizerlos]

Best Cover Soldier Under Command !!!

[RAFLAMOLAO]

this is so stupid

u make Stryper look bad

[BangTango]

why are there 1 good singer along with 2 other not so good ones? The one who is grunting shouldnt sing this song...

[kishhh777]

agreed!

[AmigaObliterator]

Stryper > All. Good cover tho :)

[SanityShed1]

eeeepicness!

[nirvanayop]

Niceee !!! Great Voice OMG!! Stryper rules ^^!

[chuncho1996]

you suck ¡¡¡¡ styper live¡¡¡¡

[farbercasteel]

Christian disease. Is this a joke or what?

[thunderdrummer1]

Does anyobe know is Amoral a christian band or did they just do this song because it's kick ass?

[TheStarchild666]

well they are finnish so i guess they are part of the christian religion, but their music isn't religious at all

[Slimebeast]

Amoral ain't a christian band, they just like the song. But yeah, Finnish people are good people, they show higher respect to the christian religion than many other countries do.

Homage to Amoral for doing a great cover!

[MartyrWarrior]

Amoral doesn't a christian band. But if you take a look, the guitarrist has a ZAO's t-shirt and the vocal a from Stryper (both christian bands), but this (play or have a christian t-shirt) doesn't make them christian.

[mikelasquetty7]

Hey, Christian cantas chingon en vivo!!!!, show those bastards what's the latin made!!! Hell Yeah from Mexico, hope to see you and Adagio Here =)!!!!!!

[tylerbrandonaustin]

Nice! Vengeance Rising meets Stryper. I love it.

[paucceri]

The clean singer sucks balls

[PilmoUtkunduri]

I think this is best cover ever,Amoral's singer Ari Koivunen sucks!!!

[PLAKOPITA]

close your eyes and picture the guy with the black and red pants,with the band sounds awesome

[kennymontejano]

why two singers ? makes no sense

[4M0R4L]

If I understood correctly, first Amoral were suposed to perform whit no extra singers. But at backstage they started to hang around with these guys and this idea came up.

[6131cmc90]

guys you have ruined an edifying topic that undoubtedly this one is STRYPER's song and you stole it and altered it you are a disaster!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bellcoso19]

Amoral is christian?

[christianrock777]

im a huge stryper fan and i thought about doing something like this. ithink its awesome that they like stryper and are honoring them by playing their song their own way. just cuz their vocals are little different doesnt mean its bad. i like this cover. headbang for jesus 777

[kishhh777]

are you kidding? this cover with all the effing grunting sucks balls

[6131cmc90]

stryper the number 1 and your guys suckers!!!!!!!!!!! god blessed you!!!

[pepearroniz]

wow.. great band... all musicians, the voice is amazing,, but the growling man sucks.... i hate all that guys that thinks that growling is sing... congratulatios to the lead voice is really good... michael sweet must be proud of you guy..

[adamc16]

He's Niko... In Amoral... It's Amoral's gig... All those people are there to see him... Therefore he does not suck :)

I love him. Haha

[kishhh777]

he does suck just like his grunting in this great song that he ruined

and other singer is really good tho

[SanityShed1]

you fucking suck dude, fuck the shut up.

[Knightwingz]

kishhh777, I assume by the last 3 digits in your username that you're a Stryper fan, correct? Maybe this style isn't to your exact taste, but it still shows the band's influence two decades later, & how they opened the door for other bands of different genres.

In my opinion this was pretty cool music wise, as well as vocals!

[kishhh777]

no im pretty sure anyone that is not retarded would know that the grunting in this song sucks

[Knightwingz]

kishhh777, do you listen to any death metal, thrash, or speed metal? Just curious, because for one, I'm NOT retarded, but I'm also not so closed-minded, or opinionated when it comes to other musical styles, than what I normally listen to. You have a right to your opinion, but don't insult others who love that particular style of vocals, just because you don't care for it.

[kishhh777]

i used to listen to children of bodom and dragonforce and nightwish and a whole bunch of other stuff

C.O.B. was my favorite

but then i heard music where ppl actually sang intsead of grunted and crap and i realized that those people werent as talented

(nightwish and dragonforce are)

as like stryper and iron maiden and other good bands from the 80s

[kishhh777]

man these guys SUCK! the guy thats actually singing and not grunting sounds great

tho

[sam4freedom74]

Yeah the growling sucks ass, the other dude has an amazing voice.

[jonnytheoasisfan]

Ahheh.. Niko is better

[plesen18]

its a really really goood song.

[Genoxide89]

stryper solo is better

[KritikalError]

They play it better than stryper.

[stryperken]

oh come now. Are you serious? Stryper does this song better than any cover, though this isn't too bad.

[xololot]

soldiers under command is a power song, is the Power Jesus metal

[KritikalError]

Sorry, but you're mistaken. You see, you cant use the word "metal" with any sort of religion word. Like, "Jesus", or "Christian"

[xololot]

Clear that if, because the metal is Jesus, there is only the power, the power Jesus metal, My Jesus socialist...amen

[KritikalError]

That was SO lame. -.-'

[xololot]

fuck your mom, son of bitch

[KritikalError]

Ouch... Son of bitch...

[stryperken]

Stryper is a Christian Heavy Metal band. Wow, I used metal with Christian...nothing happened. I guess you are wrong.

[Knightwingz]

Where did you get that info. from

KritikalError? Sounds like Churchianity, or Religiosity. Evidently you haven't heard of Living Sacrifice, Mortification, or Extol, among others.

[KritikalError]

It's only my personal opinion and nothing more. When I think of REAL metal I think of bands like Iron Maiden and Black Sabbath. They weren't Christian and if I'm not mistaken one of those bands have a song called "the Number of the Beast".

Sorry, it was just the music I know and love. When I see people trying to add God into it, it just seems more unreal than the idea of Christianity or any religion... =\

[xololot]

the high clean voice is supernatural, what is her name?

[iktpqmetal]

her name? I dont think the vocalist is female.

[xololot]

the high clean is supernatural, what is his name?

[Slimebeast]

You can hear that these guys are pros, this version is so tight and well played compared to the other Stryper covers found on YouTube

[ruoja666]

Great! Stryper was a great band, Amoral still is. Suomi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[herefgb]

The growling is great. You have to realise that Amoral is a death metal band and the growling is a part of the brutal sound, no matter if they play their own songs or stryper covers.

Amoral is the best deathmetal band coming from finland, and stryper is the best band ever :P

[Lepardz]

The guy with the clean voice is really good, but the growling just destroys the song

[jonnytheoasisfan]

Go nikoo!!! .. Stryper Rules..

Amoral's one of the best metal bands in Finland

[alfredotrooper]

Whos the guy who sings? he sounds like Michael Sweet hes really awesome! i mean the clean voice

[TheStarchild666]

Christian Palin, sings in a finnish metal band called Random Eyes, very underground

[MongeTrue]

he sings in Essence Of Sorrow too

[LoLLeRoFanTTi]

Anyway, IT'S GREAT!!! Amoral Rocks!

[o5pehe01]

I LOVE IT!!!

[LobatosMetalManiac]

wtf is that shit??? FUCK ALL POSERS WHO SUPPORT THIS KIND OF COVERS!!

FUCK AMORAL!

STRYPER RULES \M/

THIS SHIT SUCKS!

[JesBDrum]

Then why are you watchin it dumass?

[LoLLeRoFanTTi]

HAHA PWDEN!!!!

[LoLLeRoFanTTi]

oops, typoed -.- PWNED!!!!

[Preeemo]

TYPOWND

[666DamnedInBlack666]

can't hear jeff walker anywhere

[Perekele]

This must have been one of the most awesomest gigs ever. I hope that their new basist will be able to sing high vocals.(Although nowadays that is applied to too many bands to the point of frustation, but in my opinion Amoral's original sound will help them to stand out). Niko is one of the best death metal singers around but I think that adding another type of singing to their music will literarely blow my head off. But for the time being Amoral is one of the best live acts I've seen.

[CrimsonAsis]

this was actually the best amoral gig i've ever seen.. o_O but high vocals, i wouldn't like that :/

[Sotakalkkuna]

Don't give Niko a hard time. Imo he's one of the best extreme metal vocalists there is, and he's a huge part of the Amoral sound.

[thecelebrated]

So, who is the guy that is actually singing?

Does he sing for a band, and does he sing like this in the band? (I'm asking because he's got a killer voice, and I love those kinds of vocals.)

Thanks,

Tim

[TheStarchild666]

if you mean the guy with clean voice, he sings for a finnish band called random eyes wich is pretty unknown

[joaoalbu]

dont disgust me is very well.

[MarroquinVidal]

STRYPER DOES IT BETTER

[MarroquinVidal]

the Stryper song could of been better is it just was the guy in the stryper shirt singing

[quetzal1]

After watching this again I couldn't help but laugh a little as the real singer here was able to keep his composure while the other guy kept making unintelligible grunting noises like he was about to puke, over his powerful multi-octave, on pitch voice. It was like simultaneouly playing a Stryper video with the youtube video C is for cookie- check it out!

[quetzal1]

Wow, I've never heard of this band but they rock!!! But get rid of that Cookie monster singer- the other guy was awesome!

[atthegatespwnage]

It's 3 different bands. And as far as getting rid of Niko.... Never. He's the best vocalist in exxtreme metal today.

[quetzal1]

Which part of the band ia Amoral? Like I said the musicians sounded great but come on, Niko sounds just like all the other monotone cookie monster singers who branched off quality heavy metal because the music was great and they couldn't play an instrument or have the range to sing it. So they reverted back to the days of watching Sesame Street "C is for cookie, that's good enough for me!" I guess you'd have to be American to get that one, or maybe check You Tube for Cookie Monster videos! :)

[TheStarchild666]

-.- there are three singers, and only the "cookie monster" is a real member of the band

[MarroquinVidal]

Yup one of the best STRYPER songs ever!!!

[Carcass3190]

if it was just jeff walker then i would like this.

[martinnitus]

That "asshole" happens to be Jeff Walker from Carcuss! How dare you say that!

[terrydrew]

Someone should have pushed that ass hole growing into the mosh pit to be beaten and let the real singer take over!

[sartenpatero]

great voice great cover

[jamael86]

jee jee! hail amoral! \,,/ =)

[Cdnsoozin]

Whooo hooo! Rock on baby~

[hobiehippo]

this sounds great for todays market very impressive!

[stryperken]

Stryper still does it better. Check out Stryper Tube on my channel!

[666DamnedInBlack666]

What an amazing live performance! Want to see them again!

Amoral? Look into your mailbox! And if you see an invention for playing in Wacken: Phone me!

[pantojanzi]

mr palin is more michael sweet than michael sweet himself!

[jonknox]

Sweet!

[timvracer]

WOW... that so completely ROCKS!! Awesome interpretation with the vocals... love it. The dude singing lead/tenor has some lungs! And excellent guitars. Metal rules, great contemporary version!

[strypedsteve]

The SOUND is unbelieveable for a live video, it's obviously been recorded straight from the board and not a camera mic. Great version of song, except for the "growling" on top of the singing vocals

[kmorg]

Hah, he doesn't even know the lyrics!! I've seen a photo from this, but it was cool to see the video too. Oh, and Powergod have also covered this song!

[FinnStrype]

Why I wasn't there! Pitäis saada oikea Stryper Tuskaan!!!

[CrimsonAsis]

yeaaah!! i was there suckers..

[mikecurse]

That rocked.

[stryperken]

He's even wearing a Stryper shirt! Way cool!

[stryperken]

A secular band doing a Stryper song, gotta love it man! They now know what we who love Stryper know, that Stryper is TRUE METAL!

[hankwilliams3rd]

That was actually kinda cool with the octave voicing and all that.

[microkoe]

They know Stryper Rules!!

[stuybasketball]

carcass!

[alonewiththecalm]

Fuckers stole my idea of doing a secular metal band but doing Christian metal covers... now lets hear some fuckin ark of suffering from Tourniquet!
