Turisas at Bloodstock 2006

[ninjahimself]

im curious whats the name of this song. i would only listen to music of this sort if they had it in instrumental. i <3 modern classical music.

[Virginsnow111]

Wow.

[ninjahimself]

the violins so awkward to hold and play. cello's more my speed but dude does know how to make that violin scream.

[ZOA360]

what song is this? this an opening of and older song? I don't remember this.

[Glotsi]

They don't suck. They're Finnish.

[beach81131]

go violin.

10/5

[Vivicidal]

That's insane.

[tpcardoso]

(do not) FUCK THE GUITAR SOLO!

[DYLberados]

This guys awesome hes like sweep picking on a violin what u even call that but its awesome go Viking Metal \m/

[PirateFromSweden]

That's fucking badass! xD Nice!

[Metallicafanl994]

did u see them at he palladium???

[Metallicafanl994]

those finnish realy know how to rock i saw them with dragonforce very good

[albobay1]

dragonforce gay.

[lalamik]

Ahh comon dude ... Shut up...

You just didn't see them live and you have seen some videos on youtube filmed by digital camera or cellphone... because I saw them live and they were AWESOME! there was no fucking fake solo. The show was very well...

[rocklikebrucelee]

of course they're not fake. but they're gay because all thier songs sound the same, and because their lyrics make absolutely no sense :D and don't pull that "you gotta read between the lines" crap, because even if you do, you just get more questions than answers. dragonforce sings about retarded shit!

[lalamik]

What do you mean about no sense ? it depends dude... Because I agree with you that many lyrics from them it's like " i would like to know why they wrote these lyrics " but there are some songs that the lyrics are beautiful... Anyway that's my opinion

[rocklikebrucelee]

and everytime I hear a dragonforce solo, it sounds almost exactly like the other solos they play...except they just play some notes differently :\

[xMango1992x]

isn't that the same with every song ever made lol :S

[xMango1992x]

Its power metal therefore their lyrics must be about warriors, battles and epic things like mountains and flying hence "fly across the mountains and towards the distant sun"

[rocklikebrucelee]

Progressive Metal actually. But still... I wouldn't cruise to a song talking about Dungeons and Dragons. They make good melodies (on some of their songs...most of the time they recycle riffs, just taking out/changing 1 or 2 notes though). Kind of like Immortal. I like their music, but they sing about some stupid shit... the kingdom of Blashyyrkh which is ruled by the mighty Ravendark... seriously...what the fuck???

[rocklikebrucelee]

i noticed when it comes to dragonforce's songs, things are always going to be "FAR AWAY", and it'll take place in WINTER, and for some reason you're going to RIDE horses into the sunlight. sound familiar? that's what probably 8 or more of dragonforce's songs consist of. things being far away, the winter, and riding... xD

[rocklikebrucelee]

oh and "waiting for the day" that too.

[MrEpicbread]

lol, Turisas's lyrics are great, they make so much sence, if you listen, their songs are not the same at all.

[exigentrevolution]

Where is this band from? This guy sounds like...german/scottish...I'm very confused.

[tAdEjiKa]

they are from Finland ;)

[exigentrevolution]

Ah of course! Only Finnish men can have such a crazy stage performance (I'm a huge Apocalyptica fan).

[exigentrevolution]

COOOOOOL!!!!!!

Oh man that's one of the coolest things with strings I've seen since I found out about Apocalyptica!!!! ROCK!

[left4dead360]

[Seppovesimies]

[rectalbomb]

He's no no Niccolo Paganini.

[Rasite]

[slayeroflight]

can you cunts stop arguing about the fucking accent? these guys are from fucking Finland OKAY? Somebody say something about how AWESOME the guitar solo is!!!

[G10v4nn1]

well actually they're finnish ;)

i've seen them in 2005 @earthshaker festival and they were absolutely awesome^^

[idshanks]

They don't sound scottish at all, I'm Scottish and they sound foreign to me.

[Rokicki3]

Well to people from Manchester Northamptonshire etc..

They sund scottish.

[idshanks]

Only if you have a really off idea of what a Scottish accent sounds like. Even the old stereotypical accent is a fair bit off his accent.

[Neogothic]

That's just fucking amazing!

[alist0]

we need more violin solos in metal

[CaveTrollJones]

You Know That Is Better Than A Guitar Solo!!!! i watched him do this at Manchester Academy and it was just as Good :D

[HornBagles]

how the fuck do u sweep on a violin

[beardy2000]

when you brush over the strings you just curve the action on it to match the strings (kinda hard to do but possible) i dont know the technical terms as i not a violinist but thats how a friend of mine does it

[invine]

yeah i saw another clip and the crowd looked pretty pitiful in size. if i lived in the UK i would be there.

[MokomaSusi]

lol, my favored band is called "Mokoma" and they have 500 listeners at best...unless it's some big event where they are playing.

[spiderrichard]

i remember watching this guy ramble then he played the solo and i was like wooooooooooooooooooooaw. twas a awsum fest, was a bit upset at the amount of people there thought hope its a better turn out this year.

[RoheMjollnir]
