Battery - Van Canto

[syph3n77]

sounds like they are singing about my favorite old school video games system....BAtari!!!!!

[kraxic]

Fuckin' Amazing!!!

[Horzagiar]

If a cover song is played too close to the orginal one it fails its meaning. My opinion.

[TheAtticGnome]

This is amazong. Though it would be even better if the drums were replaced with a beat-boxer.

[crushcupp2011]

dieses Lied ist gut!

[dirtywhiteb0y1]

39 people don't know what talent is

[Mitromike]

@dirtywhiteb0y1 42 =(

[FightingBen]

0 to 1.15 battery is charghing 1.16 to 2 47 Battery Maximum power 2 47 to end Battery EXPLODE

[xXxDethMetalxXx]

This would sound weird in Spanish

[DarqTalonAzel]

Rindidididin Denenen Battari, Battari!

[TheWindyserv]

battery *o* i like it more than the original

[Mirikajikaari]

The song sucks after 5:15

[MathewB1770]

Patari Patari hahaha

[jeffrielly]

Why is it when most bands cover metallica who ever is singer has to try and sing like James hetfield? Nothing against this cover or any thing but at least try to be unique with it

[Ragnarill]

@jeffrielly Because James Hetfields voice is legendary

[jeffrielly]

@Ragnarill metal has never been about being a carbon copy of some one else but rather doing you own thing tony iomey said it him self "when i first heard the term heavy metal i hadn't the faintest idea what they were talking about, it just so happened that i came up with a music that everyone liked and it gave us a great feeling of this is what we are about" sure if you wish to pay tribute to some one that came before you that's perficly fine but don't be a complete copy cat

[jeffrielly]

@jeffrielly and aside from that one of the first things you are tought when you take voice lessons is to never try to sound like some one else because everyone has there own unique voice and doing so can actualy damage your vocal chords

[jeffrielly]

@jeffrielly and to add on to the doing your own thing why do youthink bands like iron maiden, megadeth, dio, pantera, metalica (before they sold out), & slayer have all gone down in history?...its because they did there own thing they werent being copycat of what the mainstream was doing

[VindictivePheasant]

@jeffrielly Lawl, Pantera were Glam Metal.

[jeffrielly]

@VindictivePheasant and that's not the stuff that they are famous for noob

[Horzagiar]

@jeffrielly Acapella Metal that's quite unique but not unheard.

[Mitrh]

woooow!! '3'

this is like too much awesome for one person to handle! (gets all crazy xD) *O*

[robn0tbob]

Very good

[cokemanpac]

Chris Jericho sent me

[Dthunder240]

This is hilarious XD

[maxord97]

Are you fucking kidding me ???

[MrAidanhart]

And peeps say metal is noise

[Gernot125]

This song is grate ^^ very nice

[Avarok188]

For some reason I imagine Quagmire from Family Guy would be a good addition to this band, lol.

Giggity!

[SuperPrimehunter]

When you think, only drums and 6 singers, thats very amazing.

But for sure the original is better ^^

\m/

[basilioTORIMD]

well, they tried

[chron0dude]

I like the part when they say battery.

[gloppy21]

[IdiotBra1n]

Crazy fucking swedes.

[RockerSean]

@IdiotBra1n ... germans ... and they are better your american rappers xD

[NFCButtrubb3d]

@RockerSean Matter of opinion. Nothing on American rap stations is good. I am both a metal head and hip hop guru and this goes with both, if you want to find gold you have to search underground

[AnurhemGordo]

i always laugh when i imagine the guy making the guitar in the background

din-digidin-digidin-di-di-di-d­in-digidin-digidin xD

[jleet234]

this is amazing

[Fujitsufeee]

[MegaJuggalo777]

epic of epic awsomeness

[Spaiidiirlion]

2:00 Badgers, badgers, badgers? :D

[lxa9466]

Hell, he could replace James Hetfield

[joroq2]

@lxa9466 Not quite.

[eiffel65isawesome]

lead vocalist is way more suited to metallica covers than on most i've heard. awesome!

[magnumgdz]

Big Respect :)

[eddydennehy]

Love it. Real METAL!!!!

[IceBlade2009]

Van Canto surprised me in a good way. It's good to see they can maintain a very high speed song for a long time of singing.

[TheChaoMasterSonic]

Take Trivium's cover instrumental and slap the lead vocalist's voice on it, and you got yourself the best damn cover of Battery.

[Dionysius8421]

@TheChaoMasterSonic Wrong. Take Ensiferum's cover instrumental, and have Van Canto GOING AT THE SAME TIME. Sharing nothing but the drummer.

Guitar solo would be sick.

[Koijjari96]

bathaaary bathaary :D

[spongebob1227]

@xKoSxVaNqUiSh like you

[chozenmatt]

Tabs please

[Dionysius8421]

@chozenmatt You can't write tabulature for the vocal cords.

[chozenmatt]

@Dionysius8421 no fucking really? that was the joke

[tinieblas300]

wow this version s awensome

[Megabamboy]

0:40-1:05....i wuld scare people with that part on halloween when they come into my house......its perfect....!!!!!

[MLDocuments]

@Megabamboy Actually, 2:47 to 3:20...

[chaosman999]

BATARY BATARY

[reelforjake]

They should replace the drummer with a beatboxer to be pure acapella, but this is excellent.

[jibao01]

@reelforjake Beatbox aint metal yo

[Jakomancer]

van canto is the fullest expression of metal, and metal is the fullest expression of van canto

[stonecoldcrazy32]

Love it.

'Nuff said.

[fernandotheboss]

where can i find the video image?

[ZhertalShussen]

i think that this is the best cover of Van Canto... the solo is freaking amazing xD

[Demonbomb51]

In my opinion, this song is better and harder to do than the original, even though they'er both very good.

[snapperturtle12]

i agree

[splorgo14]

idk what makes u think that, u can do amazing things with ur voice, instrumentals take years and years of practice, singing is definitely NOT harder then the original >.>

[maggot101ss]

@splorgo14 lol singing is way harder than playing any instrument

[splorgo14]

that depends on your voice, singing can be done by anyone capable of it, ill admit it takes talent, but u think these guys singing is more talented then eddie van halen's guitar playing, randy rhodes, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, if u think so...then u have never touched a guitar or any instrument for that matter..YEARS and years of practice, singing takes a few days to memorize a song, 2 weeks tops to sing it correctly..if u have a bad voice, then thats life.

[maggot101ss]

@splorgo14 lol actually I've been playing guitar for 7 years. and i sing, and there are a lot of technical things you have to do with singing. yeah u may think its easy, but it takes years to learn "how" to sing.

[penutbutter123456789]

play metallica and vancanto at the exact same pace it sounds awesome

[FullOfOxx]

Metallica is using Guitars and Bass but Van Canto use only a drumm and six Singers my respect for Van Canto

The Solo is fantastic

[Avarice447]

@FullOfOxx 5 singers*

[88Akatosh88]

good cover, I really like it, but I prefer metallica original song

[lucracie1989]

akku

[Randomthing210]

lol battary and the dude at thew solo looked like a freak

[Almafeta]

Someday, I want to see these people perform with the composers of the songs they cover... it'd be a truly epic moment in the history of both their bands.

[CPTTazzy]

oi dickflick metallica composed tha song numnuts, they didnt cover it, tis their song!

[Mibmu]

Uhmm... Metallica is the maker, if you can call it that, of the original song called Battery, and Van Canto has made a cover.

[TheSchniz]

Pay no mind to this person.

They lack musical knowledge

[Skullcrusher1]

Anyone who talks negatively about this just doesn't get it. There are 5 vocalists and a drummer. For every instrument to be accounted for minus the drums on vocals is just amazing. Yes even the crazy solo is voice only. BTW I like the chicks voice on here. Kind of adds an apocalyptic feel to it.

[doritos1957]

THIS IS MY FAVORITE BAND!!! BHAHAHAHA

[Moustachio101]

BATAARY BATAARY!!!

xD

Omg, This Is So Funny, But Very Well Done, Props To Them For Being Able To Do This, It's A Very Hard Thing To Do.

5/5!!

[link6930]

i cant find a download for this ANYWHERE

Can anyone supply me with one

[lollylan]

you could alway buy it somewhere -.-

[Mibmu]

I can download it for you -.-

[Randomthing210]

zamzar

[DeathMagneticSte]

HAHA! this is amazing. fucking hilarious! Metallica greatest band in the world though! =P

[08Duffy08]

fuckin sick

[Skytherius]

man... you are weird. this is an a capella band you brain, they have only one drummer, everything else is a capella

[Skytherius]

They're on Wacken, so yeah, they are metal :)

[joacomail73]

And? Marky Ramone also performed on Wacken...

Now, if you say Marky Ramone is metal you're in problems...

[Skytherius]

Van Canto do Metal, when you can't hear that, you're in problems...

[joacomail73]

I didn't know you can do metal without basses and electric guitars.

[Skytherius]

as you can see, you can ;)

[satanicjay]

i like it =)

[Tzuqris]

seriously? they can sing better than james can now

[SBarsinister]

I heard this on San Diego's ROCK105.3 the other day. The vocals make a pretty good guitar sound effects!!

[blacksabrewolf]

this is great, althought i like more metallica version, this one is awsome, i really enjoy it, and for those who said its a fucking shit, alright, just leave the ones who lioke it alone and nobody gets angry

...

[R3nkse]

I lol'd.

[jirayaforeverninja]

amazing

[Favian117]

imagine this back then when cappella was the shit what would they think

[GruntofAction]

I'm guessing this is the infamous Capella version of Battery.

[Fireharte]

This is cool!

[fan4familyguy451100]

wow...that is sweet

[stevo11223344556677]

so fucking awesome!

[gusseffenjr]

hahahaha! this soooo awesome!

very spinal tapish, but awesome.

[stychin]

Fucking Talent!

[Levironas]

Inga Scharf ist meine Sportlehrerin.

[Spartaner032]

[namiseniazi1992]

[hfyuutr]

brilliant.I love the 3.50 - 4.00 break and outro.

[MrBDover91]

Fucking Awesome... They should try Dyers Eve lol

[hibernia22]

Just when you think you've heard it all, acapella metal. hmmmmm, I wonder if it's possible to play metal on common horns, like trumpet or saxophone & tuba & others like it.

[jacobpotter]

yep, and I've seen it, too! good stuff!

[simpleplan7829]

@hibernia22 sure just listen to the Diablo Swing Orchestra!

[togetheras0ne]

@hibernia22 Of course it's possible.

[palladora]

@hibernia22 I used to play Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, and Led Zeppelin, among others, on tuba. I'm sure it's possible.

[Dionysius8421]

@hibernia22 Pat Boone did it.

[stupgamer13]

@hibernia22 it is

my high school band did a metallica and judas priest show

[sidgeaberration]

i think this is very funny

very talented

but seriously spinal tap

just like if they stuck to opera or whatever i'd have more respect

[hotbday]

not as good as the metallica version but its is really good metallica rule

[AsmoWazo]

VAN CANTO RULES!

[BakNBlack]

ROCK GUITAR ROCKAGUITA-GUITAR

[Skelros]

nenenenenene betari betari \m/

[maganashi]

Haha this rocks, it's too bad that they fail live.

[Thundermouth666]

Ever seen them live? A few mates were over in Germany last year and saw them with Nightwish. They said, altough they don't like acapella, that they were absolutley awesome. Go see 'em before making sweeping comments dude.

[maganashi]

I have seen them live, hence my comment.

[Thundermouth666]

Ok. I suppose a lot of people won't like 'em live. I noticed hat the chick sings a bit off-key in some of the live vids. I wouldn't mind seeing them live myself, but getting to Germany is a pain when your skint ;) Most of the negative comments come from the UK so I don't expect to see them here anytime soon.

[6milker9]

Zajebiste! :D

[HatsOC]

Do they have to keep saying battery? Doin my head in ¬_¬

[OriginalDesko]

Yeah, no kidding. They say it at every available opportunity.

[DarkCrusaderMunky]

Awesome!

[DarkCrusaderMunky]

Thats freakin' awesome!

[thrashguitarmaster70]

I wanna hear "Hangar 18" like this.

[meiomaseitrip]

RAKKATAKKA!!! BATTERYBATTERY!!

[dmaia]

lolol

[southerngreat1]

haha

[KingMoose5]

easily the biggest piece of shit i've ever listened to!

WTF was up with solo!

This is a disgrace to not only Metallica but all music!

[Thundermouth666]

Why?

[thrashguitarmaster70]

Why not

[Thundermouth666]

naaa dude...I meant @ KingMoose5.."Why?".It's all good fun...and at least they have the nuts to do/try something, well, different and new.

[Trendkiller138]

I actually think it's kinda cool. A helluva lot better thanthe crap Metallica's been coming out with lately!

[postigaceltic]

funny to listen, but that's all.

[HastaElDesmadre]

All you are morons if you dont know what this is. Its and Acappela cover of Metallica's "Battery" off the master pupputs album! And its amazing!

[davobard]

This shit is fucking stupid, people actually listen to this garbage???

[HastaElDesmadre]

Its Acappela and its a cover of a Metallica song, its well done!

[joelpizzaguy]

are they some kind of pokemon or something called battery?

[hoopesk2]

Bitari!

[hoopesk2]

lmao!!!

[HARDCOERXRAY2]

wtf

[gtrmstr]

Baaaaaaateeeeeryyyy 1:30 <- its like Power Rangers song xD

[Crowbane404]

THIS IS SO FUCKING AWESOME

[milanocapitale]

WTF!!!!

XD

Bravissimi!

[x3hurtmex3]

i.wie mag ich des xD

is voll lustig :D:D:D

[Brute70]

Even if you don't really like this, you have to admit no other band with only a drummer and singers sounds better, this group with 5 singers and a drummer is one of my favourite bands out there and i love their work.

[SkiddyMarks]

is there no guitar in this? i swear i can hear guitar....

[oOmetalfreakOo]

no there are only drums and 5 singer^^

[Seafairy62]

I actually like it, original for sure!

[MetalDischarge]

I don't like it...

[DixMelkahia]

Just a Word:

Original

[DraculusBM]

Blows the shit out of the original.

[butterflyinyourheart]

I love this Band Kiss kiss kiss ihr seit super!

[gothic666soul]

RAKKATAKKA MOTHERFUKKA!

[FiredUpGrego]

Pathetic

[Alfrayer]

You clearly have no respect for music. This is a classic song pulled off uniquely with style in A capella.

[FiredUpGrego]

Clearly you have no taste in muisc. This is a classic murdered with a really bad style in A capella

[Alfrayer]

No taste? Everyones opinions are different where music comes to it, and i respect that and dont claim people have "bad taste" but if you were a true fan of any music, you would udnmerstand taste varies however any fan of music could apprchiate such a complex composition such a 5 vocalists and a drummer especially (when unlike classic A Capella abnds) this band is trying to voice synathsise instruments which is unique.

[FiredUpGrego]

I do appreciate all styles of music from mozart to devil driver, but this is just shit.

[bladesofthenight]

Yes that's showing real appreciation isn't it... Douche

[Onkelhorscht]

just like the orginal xD

[comentariorandom]

No solo ficou +-... ranca a tanga!

[nonhasthisusername]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
