I am an old fart from america, a relic from the hippie era, and this band has an orginal style that I like, to bad that most americans do not apreciate a lot of music that comes out of Europe. Hell, the electric type writer was the newest technology when I was in high school, and I went to technical college to learn about computers and graduated at the age of 50. I decided to try out this youtube thing as a hobby 10 months ago and I like a lot of the videos from Europe.
I really enjoy Van Canto, and in their vids and behind the scenes stuff they seem to be having a lot of fun, but for some reason they look really bored and/or annoyed in this clip.
@CoDIngonator . So you are Judging a Awesome talented band, because of some stupid leader from the second world war? You do also know that the Nazi's were a political Party? and you do know why the second world war actually started?
If that is the case, what about Israel? What about the good old U.S.A? invading Iraq for no good reason? I mean they have been in a constant state of battle/war since the second world war......
I love this band, i find it very amazing what they can do with their voices and damn do they make it sound good..this is one of my fav's from them aswell the wishmaster..They make it sound soo much better then the original
English Translation 1: Hi, I'm Sly and I sing the lead vocals. Hi, I'm Ross and I do the higher rakka-takkas Hello I'm Stephan and I do the deeper rythm guitars and solos Hi, I'm Ingo and I do the high lead vocals I'm Eik and I do the bass. Hello I'm Bastian and I'm the drummer. and all togeather we are VAN CANTO Here we are at the video shooting of "Battery" (song) thank you. We have all already played in normal metal bands and after that wasnt very successful, we thougt "lets do something new"
@MetalWillem1 luckely they don't :P Im also from holland so don't blame me xD but be onest every good band comes from Germany or Norway Sweden ... and i can call 100 europian countries who had better bands than holland.. the only one i like a little is WT and Epica but it's just a little
She's not the slimmest chick on the planet. Probably this also makes her almost hottest being in this solar system... Just what I feel lookin' at her....
all ive got to say is damn, to have come out with this using just ur voice n 1 drumset just damn, bravo guys hell i like it also luv "the mission" too. just wanna say one last thing: thanks for having the balls to do this when no one else duz
@Metalliguy1 theyre a german acapella band... and he dont plays the "racka tackas" he makes the higher racka tackas later they say that the lead singer cant sing the racka tackas so fast and thats why he is the leadsinger^^
MAN I love how a video that simply has people that speak German in it sparks a DEBATE ABOUT HITLER! HOORAY! You people aren't accomplishing anything arguing on freaking YouTube, just drop it and enjoy the vid or if you don't then go enjoy something else.
dude, to put it bluntly. fuck off. if you really knew what you were talking about, you wouldnt have brought anything up. your german sucks royal ass, and you're going on about stupid shit. so enough. yea, hitler was responsible for 6odd million deaths, whatever lays in store for the earth is way worse than that, so stop acting so tough, get your facts straight, and get a fucking life.
@GefroreneSeele: Yeah i know right, i got a friend who thinks the same way, its ridiculous.
@AfTrolle: You are an idiot. plain and simple, you shouldnt be spouting bull sh*t when you dont even know what the berlin wall is. thats just pathetic. get over yourself and shut up
und die ganzen idioten die hier am rumlabern sind von wegen deutsche sind alle doof und so beachtet irh am besten nich... die ham keine ahnung von musik und keine ahnung von i-was... naja was bleibt noch zu sagen... WELL DONE ;) und macht wieter so^^
a language doesn't kill people. yes, it*'s right, I'm not proud for the german hystory, but this was 60 years ago. a ot changed in germany. go to school and learn something about german history. ever heard about DDR or The Berlin Wall? i do. i hate guys who think "Germans=Nazis" thats wrong. Get real, Germany changed and is one of the most important countries in the world...
in your dreams sauerkraut you bitches only claim to international importance is that you let the US keep 50 000 soldiers in your country free of charge and of accountability. total bitch move. the blood from 6 million jews wasnt enough i guess, but dont worry, the blood of every man woman and child murdered in iraq or afghanistan will surely quench your draculian thirst
and yea ive heard of dance dance revolution wolfgang but what the fuck is the borlin wall must be some type of faggot thing
by facilitating a unaccountable global network of military power projection, whose job it is to enforce the policies of an elite, the bundesrepublik is co-responsible for every dead iraqi or afghani man, women or child, as well as every dead coalition soldier of any nationality.
of course, by aiding the projection of american political and military power the german people are maintaining the campaign of economic and social subjugation that the US has been waging against the arab and muslim world for the last 60 years, and as such is also responsible for creating the social and theological climate in which fundamentalists have been able to justify killing civilians indiscriminately. Thanks alot hans-dieter schmidt we all appreciate it now get the fuck back to stuttgart
