you cant compare amon amarth and turisas, both of them are really cool bands, turisas estile mixes folk, death, power and simphonic metal and amon amarth is death metal though with a viking thematic in their lyrics, turisas lyrics depend of the disc, the last one was more universal but still talked about the byzantine empire or the varangian ward and also about death, never giving up..in other songs they have a history thematic in my opinion
@ragnaroksama What the fuck, I like both bands very much but Amon Amarth is just death metal with Viking-ish lyircs and this is No death metal. Name one song from Amon Amarth that has a violin in it, Or that harmonica-thing? No offense but this is nothing like Amon Amarth. Just saying, not hating.
@ragnaroksama Hmm, I think they don't look like Amon Amarth because Amon Amarth wear t-shirts with the band's logo on it and Turisas wear bearfurs... And if Turisas looks like Amon Amarth then every pagan/folk/vking-metalband would look like then because Amon Amarth were around first...
3:10 - stinking, vulgar, drunk, ready to crush his enemies' head barbarian... with accordion...? Nice music, but folk metal bands are always looking funny, and I think that they are quite sympathic and talkative guys.
Just last week my lady and I sat in her living room watching this video projected larger than life onto the wall, shaking our swords in the air and shouting...not surprisingly, her roomies were a little confused - if not genuinely concerned - when they got up for breakfast and found us in full battle metal mode haha. And that was how we spent Christmas \m/ \m/
It's just a lyrical theme. Who said they're into war? I know I love this stuff and I do not love nor am I into war. Just because they write lyrics about vikings and quests and cool stuff like that doesn't mean they relish the prospect of war - it just makes the music epic.
@MadeOfTrueMetal I know,it is just lyrics,I understand band,but I'm talking about their fans,not all,but many...I know a few myself...Man,one have an knight glove and a stick with the dagger inside,he is into middle age knights and war,Templars and shit,but when it comes to fight he is the first to run... :D
MetalForBlood666 i am sure that if they live in tropical weather, they will be really happy if you will take them to north lands. :D And u must live there to know real viking metal ;). And u can only imagine that Odin is nigga...
saw them in march on their UK tour, they are amazing, and much tighter now then they used to be, probably 'cus they play to a backing track now, plus lisko is all out of time and playing wrong notes, good thing they have a new accordian player now
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Ok - will somebody please tell me what the fuck this is? I am serious but violins & accordians have absolutely no fucking place in metal music at all!!!! I cannot believe this shit! V-I-O-L-I-N-S? A-C-C-O-R-D-I-A-N-S?
Are you kidding me? I don't care what style you call it - metal music is not supposed to have gay violins & fucking accordians man that shit just does not go with metal music... those violins & accordians just sound totally out of place with this metal music! This is just crazy!
Oh please go to hell this sounds like shit & you know it! It wouldn't sound so bad if that violin & accordian weren't there! Get rid of that stupid shit & Turisas would sound so much better!
oh really many bands do - I guess many bands that you listen to anyway - well if you like them you like them good for you - violins & accordians have no place in metal music - I don't care what kind of style you call it - it sounds stupid!
i dont really care what you think, im just saying if you think its faggoty shit, why the hell are you listening to it!!!
millions of people like this kind of music all over the world. there are mainy successful folk metal bands so it cant be that shit :p or have no place in metal music
Well lets see I have never heard them up until now so how am I supposed to rate or make a comment about a fucking band unless I hear them first! Or would you should I make a comment based on something I never heard which would bw pretty Ignorant don't you think..
I never said I didn't like Folk Instruments or Folk music - I just don't like it in metal!
Yes you are right metal is a very versatile genre - but for me there is a time & place for everything & keyboards I can deal with but Violins & Accordians I think that's stretching it a bit...
