    You probably missed some reference here ☺️The Odin Elixir is an actual beverage here in Italy (Cedrata Tassoni) 😅 Giorgio Mastrota was a huge salesman in TV in the 90s. The Mid Garda Lake is a pun between Midgard (the earth for Norseman) and Garda Lake. There's also a reference to an episode in which Giulio Andreotti (former PM) blacked out during an interview and the presenters tried to woke him up telling "presidente, presidente" 🤣 Simply genius here

      ...e che su Mastrota i Nanowar of steel hanno creato la canzone più iconica del loro repertorio.
      Come pure citazioni di canzoni pop italiane

    ok, now... this song has a lot of references, going from old tv spot, to music, to (of course) traditional dishes
    First of all, of course, the title: Polenta Taragna is a quite common dish in the north of italy (mostly in Valtellina, a little valley near the Alps), and "ragnarock" is the Viking apocalypse. The whole song is a mixture of things from Valtellina and Bergamo (like Trepalle (which is not a volcano, sadly), Sondrio, the word "pota"...) and the typical Viking culture. (a few wordplay may be the title itself or the Midgarda lake (Midgard is a realm in viking mythology, and the Garda lake is not far from Bergamo)
    Then, the guest artist: Giorgio Mastrota is a quite famous italian telemarketer (mostly during the 90's), and Nanowars already wrote a song about him (Giorgio Mastrota: the Keeper of Inox Steel). It turned out that Mastrota really liked the song, and kept in touch with the band until they decided to do a collab. And another trivia, this is the first time Mastrota sings anything in a music album (he sung quite some time ago an old jingle for some spot, but nothing more)
    Another thing, songs references. They love to do this, and this time they took 2 song: "Su di noi" by Pupo (which you can hear in both pre-chorus, and is also referrenced lyrically with the "su di lei, ci metto la provola" part) and an older jingle for the Cedrata tassoni, which appear also in the song (the Odin's elixir). In that particular part, the first 2 lines are a direct reference to that old jingle, and they changed "do, build, create" with "pillage, plaster (which is also a reference for Bergamo, because a lot of italian construction worker comes from that area), feast"
    Last but not least, the "presidente" line. Giulio andreotti, a former italian PM, suddently stopped during an interview, scaring the host of that program (who tried to call him quite a few times) and staring at nothing. Now, because Polenta is quite a hard dish to digest, Mr. Baffo/Gandalf was spacing out probably after eating too much polenta, and Giorgio tried to wake him up with that word
    Of course, being the "Italian Folk Metal" album, every song takes from the "italian modern folklore" (like the Cedrata Tassoni, or soccer, or the rose sellers at the corners of the street) and are meant for their italian fans, but I'm always happy to see that foreigngers can still enjoy their song and be interested about them. If you have a particolar part of the song itself that is unclear, or want to learn more about this folklore or the Valtellina (trust me, if you can somehow, try the polenta. it won't disappoint you), i'd be glad to explain everything i can

  • @HaganeNoGijutsushi
    @HaganeNoGijutsushi 2 ปีที่แล้ว +17

    Note, when they start singing in falsetto at 1:58, that's a reference to an Italian song, "Su di noi" by Pupo. Which of course is one of the furthest thing from heavy metal ever XD.

    • @ThunderRooster

      Agree! It totally caught us off guard. 😂✌️

  • @cangaroojack

    Fun fact, this song was entirely written togheter with their fans during one of their streams, during the height of the pandemic here in Italy!

    The song "Giorgio Mastrota" is how the legend of the true steel 18/10 begins.

    Polenta taragnarock is a combination of the words rock and polenta taragna, a dish from northern Italy made with corn flour, buckwheat flour and cheese.

    • @myrrdyn

    I recommend "heavy metal kibbles", "quest for Carrefour" (even though it's just a simple lyrics video), and "tooth fairy", too.

    • @angiewegenerdjmetalamazon4468
      @angiewegenerdjmetalamazon4468 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      "Heavy Metal Kibbles" is really great for ppl like me who love Judas Priest. :D I also really dig "Tooth Fairy" :D

    If you want more medieval sounding songs like this I highly recommend you to check out Feuerschwanz! It's a german medieval folk rock band with great sense of humor!

  • @christianlanza5395
    @christianlanza5395 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Another great reaction!! There are a lot of references to italian facts, songs, people and places mixed with nordic mythology in a folk pagan metal style.
    Valtellina with Vahlalla becomes vahlaltellina, Garda lake with Midgard MidGarda lake, polenta taragna with ragnarok the song title and many more..Odin, valkiries, ginnungagap.. and we are talking about a dish. Gŕeat song and thank you from Italy

  • @lngo2328
    @lngo2328 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Awesome reaction as always!🤘
    For the next song I suggest "vegan velociraptor" or "tooth fairy", the first one is so stupid that becomes brilliant. The 2nd one is about Mario Draghi (Italian prime Minister) who's trying to lower the inflation caused by the tooth fairy. they're both hilarious!!

  • @samael7867
    @samael7867 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Nanowar of steel is so good! as others mentioned Feuerschwanz makes music of the same genre and they are amazing, they just hit #1 in the German album charts. and they are commedic to, amazing musicians, and they produce high quality videos to react to. So feuerschwanz is perfect for youtube reactions (and real fun for you i hope) :)

  • @Obobavvive
    @Obobavvive 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Obviously if you don't understand Italian it's not easy to "feel" the vibe... You have to react to "call of Chtulu", "vegan velociraptor"and "Ironmonger"... but consider that there are almost 50 songs to listen!

  • @johncrwarner

    La Polenta Taragna is a dish from the borderlands of Northern Italy
    where Germanic languages meet Northern Italian dialects
    and there are a series of languages that share a common heritage
    in Italic and Germanic languages.
    I did the Bernina Express in the area
    The train goes over spectacular scenery between Switzerland to Italy
    and ends in this region.
    These areas are very proud of their culture.
    It was good quality folk metal which is more a German thing.
    The nearby autonomous region
    which German speakers call Südtirol
    but the Italians call Alto Adige
    was Austrian until the end of WW1
    and is still 60+% German speaking.
    There are a lot of references I didn't get either
    as they are topical Italian references.

    @sevendam9070 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    This explains why they aren't big as a live act. They simply don't have the time for it, even though they have great potential.
    This also reminds me to a Dutch band called Heidevolk who are history teachers during their daily lifes making songs about history.
    Info likes this makes my love such bands even more, knowing that they do it just for the fun.
