As a norwegian with knowledge of the Black Metal scene, this piece is, beside the excellent music, roll-on-the-floor-laughing hysterical! There's soooo many references in those lyrics. Those hot, latin pumping rhyhtms, combined with the cultural 'cold' of Norwegian BM... there is SO much to pick apart here. This is amazing.
An Italian band playing reggaeton mixed with metal joking about black metal (Norwegian), singing in English, Spanish and a little Norwegian .... Fantastic video and reaction, I recommend Valhalleluya for a next video, greetings from Italy!
YESSSS THIS SONG IS AMAZING! Now it’s time to flex my Reggaeton knowledge. The drum beat you reference many times during the song (and mention that it’s the same drum beat used in South Africa for some local music) is THE Reggaeton beat. Not “one of many” or “commonly used”, it’s THE beat used in pretty much ALL of Reggaeton. You mention at one point that it’s kind of bouncy, and that’s by design, since Reggaeton is a music genre made to dance, so the beat is made with that in mind. Besides the beat, most of the lyrics are a full-on fusion of Black Metal subject matter and Reggaeton subject matter. Reggaeton usually has lyrics that talk about dancing, the beach, having a good time, drinking, sex, basically a party lifestyle. Black Metal lyrics are usually about blasphemy, Satan, the Church and its shortcomings, basically an anti-Catholic lifestyle. They blend both genres’ themes really well in the lyrics, like in these examples: - Profanar la tumba al ritmo de la rumba (Desecrate the tomb to the rhythm of the Rumba) blends desecrating graves (Black Metal) with dancing (Reggaeton) to the Rumba (a Latin genre) - Satanás me sube la temperatura (Satan raises my temperature) blends Satan (Black Metal) with getting hot/excited (Reggaeton) - Vamos a bailar con “Det Som Engang Var” (Let’s dance to “Det Som Engang Var”) is pretty easy: dancing (Reggaeton) to a Burzum (Black Metal band) song. It’s honestly an insanely well-written song for what it was trying to be: a Black Metal AND Reggaeton parody at the same time. And for those rare fans of both Black Metal and Reggaeton (like me), it’s an amazing song to listen to regularly and laugh along with it.

@@HALberdier17 Yeah, Thanks. Is just wanted to say it because the translations don´t fit with the rest of the verse, in case somebody is trying to figure it out what the hell all means haha.
So a couple of points to help understanding the song. Norwegian black metal has been quite popular in Italy since the 90s. A lot of the references in the text are about that scene. Names of musicians and references to church burnings done by some of the black metal musicians in the early 90s. Also names of places and a few Norwegian sentences in there as well (a lot of Italian black metal fans learned Norwegian and followed the bands around on tour).
@@markusnaher56 Spanish is sort of the official language of reggaeton I believe. That's the point, I think. An Italian band singing about Norwegian black metal using a latin style sung in Spanish.
The Spanish lyrics are absolutely hilarious with such a happy beat. Something like, "Profane the tomb while we dance the Rumba" and "Let's dance on the beach and perform a malignant ritual" I played it at work and my coworker, a native Spanish speaker, almost died laughing. Thank you for the video! I'd recommend Valhalelujah next. It features the lead singer of Gloryhammer for some extra fun cheese!
Only Chase can react to Nanowar of Steel and still comment on the music parts! Can't wait to see Tank's reaction to this, too, so that we finally learn which guitars and drumkit they used :)
They hid "Battle Hymn" by Manowar twice in this song. Instead of the lyrics: "By moonlight we ride ten thousands side by side" They put: "By Sunlight we ride ten thousands side by side"
Nanowar of Steel is such a "rabbit hole" type of band. Hearing one song like this (or, like for me, Valhalleluya) just makes you need to check out the rest of their stuff. Then you discover the gold.
I couldn't believe this existed until i saw it last nigh. I had only 2 glasses of wine when i saw this. I thought i was already s***faced when i am not a light weight...i thought i was imagining this until i saw the whole video. To see a Metal band combine Urban Latino hip hop (i'm from Puerto Rico we invented reggeton) and here in PR we rockers are at war with reggetoneros because they start fights with us rockers, we rockers mind our own business and are peaceful but crazy among our own. My jaw dropped...If you are from The Nordic nations or just a fan of this group in general, I URGE you to visit Puerto Rico if you want to know more about reggeton as well as Metal here. Once the epidemic is finally over, i recommend you to come to PR. You're welcome here. Don't worry.
I have yet to meet someone who is ready for Nanowar of Steel, and while i don't like many of their songs, i (and nobody, really) can't deny that they are an amazing band and absolutely know what they are doing. I absolutely love that they do *a lot* of collaborations and bring a kind of fun and satire to the metal scene (and many other genres to be honest) that many people don't think is even possible.
I just loved how you analyzed the details of this song. Nanowar are so good on so many levels, I really like when somebody notices and appreciates all this.
Had to double-check. They have the Spanish lyrics translated in the English captions. On the one hand, half of it is album or band references. On the other hand, you get gems like "looking at a seal."
how cool is that? my first concert was also Cranberries, back then in Berlin Columbiahalle (Germany). Of course that gives a big like! 👍 Grüße aus Deutschland 👋
I love all of the references to the early 90's Norwegian Black Metal scene in the lyrics. LOL Next best song is probably "Valhallelujah (Ft Angus McFife of Gloryhammer)". hahaha
YES! I knew you would have a blast with them. That's what we Italians are: when we LOVE something (such as Nanowar loves metal) we can't help but make fun of it. To answer to your question about genres mixing, I'll copy here a recent facebook status of the band's sound engineer, (roughly translated): "Everybody's in vacation, and I'm here mixing. And as if that weren't enough, Nanowar invented new ways to fit together genres that are not physically compatible". So I guess we're going to have fun a ride.
That was fun, if you translation just ask. I enjoy your videos man. Greetings from El Salvador

Chase I love your reactions so much because of the pure joy on your face. That smile is so uplifting. Found you from "The Sound of My Father" by Marko and have binged watched your videos this weekend. Keep up the good work!
"how many genres are in this?!" the answer is, of course, YES. And while you're in the land of the absurd... you might as well check out Alestorm... Treasure Chest Party Quest, or maybe Tortuga...
@@richardgoddard37 I wish I could hear F*ucked With An Anchor for the first time again because it's freaking hysterical and I nearly pissed myself laughing the first time I heard it.
Oh my, I love you so much while enjoying this song. You can´t fake your reactions and I adore that. Thank you, thank you for the good moment, yesterday was a damn bad day. Everything is better now. Let's dance, come to Mexico and we'll improve those moves you already have 🖤🤘🏻💃🏻🕺🏻
Such a fun song and entertaining video. Watchign your reaction was additional fun. The song itself was enjoyable and your analysis was as informative as we have come to expect. Thanks!
I was so skeptical of this but I was here to support Chase and ended up just laughing a bunch and loving the song. It helps to be not quite fluent in Spanish as well. Such a great surprise. Thanks to the person that recommended this and for the reaction. It turned a terrible day into something much closer to a damn good day. My car was hit in the parking lot of my work and the dude refuses to give me his insurance info and keeps trying to pay me off/offer to buy my vehicle for a low price he claims is fair.... And this still made me smile when that seemed like the most unlikely thing tonight.
Dude, i found your reactions for eskimo callboy and started browsing through your videos. I really enjoy how much you appreciate the talent of the musicians and i love your positivity and the fun you feel watching those videos. Thank you for your contend and please keep it on that level of entertainment. Best regards from germany.
Man it's soo good to see you react to Nanowar!!! They are so funny and good to listen to. Unfortunately there are a lot of songs that are in Italian so are actually kinda hard to get the references but they are awesome! Glad they went to sing in English so everyone can enjoy them!
Wow what a surprise !!! this freaking song is stuck into my brain and i can't stop listening to it. I feel like i'm in Cuba on vacation hahahaha Thank you again Chase, your channel always makes me discover new bands and this one is awesome hahaha so funny !!!
Oh my...you reaction...🤣🤣🤣 Can you imagine if Tuomas was actually in this 🤣 I don't think I would be able to handle it 😛. I stumbled across this a few months ago! I like it. It is funny and well made. Nice one again Chase! Good job👍
thank you so much for this reaction. I love humor, I love Metal and I love Reggaeton. so this song became instantly my favorite Nanowar of Steel song, when I first heard it. but there are many more. 😄 and it's so cool that the artists are starting to find you and to appreciate what you're doing. any messages from Floor or Tuomas yet? 😁
I've since now just saw your's Nightwish videos.....ok, i'm having a stroke of how much i'm laughing on this hahahahahahahahahahaha you're trying to be serious.....and they are clearlly not being serious hahaha
The spanish part: Viking heart of Santo Domingo, the burned church, the piña colada. Let's dance with Det som engang var Cuban warrior, pagan dancer, drinking mojito at the sacrifice let's dance with hellhammer and varg Desecrate the grave to the rhythm of the rumba, with Fenriz and Darkthrone norwegian reggaeton This crazy life, to watch the seal, roasting a salmon norwegian reggaeton Latin Nordic, how Luciferian, kill the enemy but slowly Let's dance on the beach of evil Move your hip with my armor, Satan raises my temperature let's dance in evil ritual jajajajaja when my "regaetoner" friend heard it she fell in love.
Oh man, their play on the metal genre is superb. Barby, Milf Princess of Twilight as a perfect example of parody on italian power metal. Or Valhalleluja. Or basically every other song from them.
I have noticed that artists that don't take themselves too seriously, like Weird Al or even Babymetal, work in large part because their musical foundation is solid. And now you can add Nanowar of Steel to that list. I really enjooyed this. I often don't listen to new artist reactions; I love music, it feeds my soul, but life is super busy right now, and if there is a new band I want to give them the attention they deserve but that's not in the cards right now. But I have time for these guys
I've heard it said time and again by people listening to Nonowar... you expect them to be crazy "intelligent hilarious" (is that a humor genre?) but.. what blows people away again and again is the music they deliver is absolutely first class, kick @$$ excellent caliber rock metal baby.... wow so appreciate your confusion chase... who the hell are these people?
Chase, this one is going straight to my playlist) Absolutely adored f'n second of this song! Thank you for the reaction, love the awkward dancing and airdrumming.
The parts in spanish are so fun too. Profanar al tumba, al ritmo de la rumba... Gigatron band is a metal band that does parodies, pretty famous in Spain since some years ago. No surprise this guy is here really xD Vallhaleluja is where you need to go next.
Dude, thank you so much for your amazing reaction! We enjoyed watching every second of it. Keep up the good work!
Noooo way. Aaah thanks so much guys. Really really appreciate that. Much more to come. 🙏🤘💪
@@ChaseCarneson We'll be waiting for it !
As a Norwegian who lives less than a mile from Fantoft Stave Church, I have the best mixed feelings about this XD
It's time for Valhalleluja!
What song of yours do you think Chase should do next? He's asking everyone so you certainly get a vote too...

- Satanás me sube la temperatura (Satan raises my temperature) blends Satan (Black Metal) with getting hot/excited (Reggaeton)
- Vamos a bailar con “Det Som Engang Var” (Let’s dance to “Det Som Engang Var”)
is pretty easy: dancing (Reggaeton) to a Burzum (Black Metal band) song.
It’s honestly an insanely well-written song for what it was trying to be: a Black Metal AND Reggaeton parody at the same time. And for those rare fans of both Black Metal and Reggaeton (like me), it’s an amazing song to listen to regularly and laugh along with it.
This should get more thumbs up. Thank you for the translation💃🏻🤘🏻💃🏻🤘🏻
That's why I love them. Every time I re listen to one of their song I found a new reference 😅 proud to be an Italian like them 🤣
It kills me how good their Spanish writing is on this song. It's an Italian band writing about Nordic/satanic themes in Spanish. Absurd. I love it.
The moment when the front voice sings "Zombies" by Cranberries and the back sings "Battle Hymn" by Manowar is really the non plus ultra
I didn't notice that until you pointed it out! Thank you!
That was the part that made laugh the hardest in this song. So out of left field.
Wait, where? I can't find it :(

Yes. This fragment is just great.
"Valhalleluja", "And then i noticed that she was a gorgoyle", "vegan velociraptor", "tooth fairy", "ironmonger (copier of the seven keys)" by them

@@markusnaher56 the song makes joke of both the black metal and reggaeton scene.

Totally deadpan, straight-faced, no idea how you pulled that off - but it was just what I needed!

The Spanish lyrics are absolutely hilarious with such a happy beat. Something like, "Profane the tomb while we dance the Rumba" and "Let's dance on the beach and perform a malignant ritual"
I played it at work and my coworker, a native Spanish speaker, almost died laughing.
Thank you for the video! I'd recommend Valhalelujah next. It features the lead singer of Gloryhammer for some extra fun cheese!
I have never felt more fortunate to know Spanish and black metal. those two things have never had occasion to synergize til this moment

Nanowar has official English subtitles on that video that add a lot to the experience :)
In your head. Well never forget the cranberries!
A little thing: FALEGN-AMEN, in italian is a fusion of two words "falegname" + "amen". Translated sounds like CARPENT-AMEN (carpenter + amen). :D
In my humble opinion that band is the definition of "boys will be boys".
I love all of the references to the early 90's Norwegian Black Metal scene in the lyrics. LOL
Next best song is probably "Valhallelujah (Ft Angus McFife of Gloryhammer)". hahaha

YES! I knew you would have a blast with them. That's what we Italians are: when we LOVE something (such as Nanowar loves metal) we can't help but make fun of it.
To answer to your question about genres mixing, I'll copy here a recent facebook status of the band's sound engineer, (roughly translated):
"Everybody's in vacation, and I'm here mixing. And as if that weren't enough, Nanowar invented new ways to fit together genres that are not physically compatible".
So I guess we're going to have fun a ride.
11:09 gives a whole new meaning to "Hitting those skins" LOL
what a treat, this is going to be stuck in my head for the foreseeable future for sure
That was fun, if you translation just ask. I enjoy your videos man. Greetings from El Salvador
Chase I love your reactions so much because of the pure joy on your face. That smile is so uplifting. Found you from "The Sound of My Father" by Marko and have binged watched your videos this weekend. Keep up the good work!
"how many genres are in this?!"
the answer is, of course, YES.
And while you're in the land of the absurd... you might as well check out Alestorm... Treasure Chest Party Quest, or maybe Tortuga...
😂
Sh*t Boat and F*cked With An Anchor are a must too. Sooooo funny (and great songs)
@@richardgoddard37 I wish I could hear F*ucked With An Anchor for the first time again because it's freaking hysterical and I nearly pissed myself laughing the first time I heard it.
Big Ship, Little Ship!
Also a smooth transition to Glorryhammer. This must never stop!
Oh my, I love you so much while enjoying this song. You can´t fake your reactions and I adore that.
Thank you, thank you for the good moment, yesterday was a damn bad day. Everything is better now.
Let's dance, come to Mexico and we'll improve those moves you already have 🖤🤘🏻💃🏻🕺🏻
I like someone truly analyzing this song. And who better than our Chase? Insightful, showing the technical expertise, but never monotonous.
Such a fun song and entertaining video. Watchign your reaction was additional fun. The song itself was enjoyable and your analysis was as informative as we have come to expect. Thanks!
Omg. Rhe picture they pulled out of the fire-- was that Daddy Yankee?🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 I'm SENT🤣
😂😂😂
I love that no matter what happens in the videos you give really great technical commentary. I've watched so many new bands because of your channel.
Haha, awsome as always.
VALHALLELUJA !!
Oh MY God!!! Yes the song is funny, and strangely good. But it's you that made me laugh out loud many times.... So thank you!!!
Try turn on the youtube CC when watching the video it won't make the lyrics better but adds to the fun lol
Last year summer , at Vagos Metal Fest in Portugal , every couple was dancing to this ahah , both sober and drunk couples ahah
''How mant genres are in this?'' All of them! Nanowar of Steel are so great.
I was so skeptical of this but I was here to support Chase and ended up just laughing a bunch and loving the song. It helps to be not quite fluent in Spanish as well. Such a great surprise. Thanks to the person that recommended this and for the reaction. It turned a terrible day into something much closer to a damn good day.
My car was hit in the parking lot of my work and the dude refuses to give me his insurance info and keeps trying to pay me off/offer to buy my vehicle for a low price he claims is fair.... And this still made me smile when that seemed like the most unlikely thing tonight.
Ascoltale tutte le canzoni dei nanowar se vuoi morire dal ridere.. li ho visti piu' di 10 volte sono bravissimi, li adoro
Dude, i found your reactions for eskimo callboy and started browsing through your videos. I really enjoy how much you appreciate the talent of the musicians and i love your positivity and the fun you feel watching those videos. Thank you for your contend and please keep it on that level of entertainment. Best regards from germany.
Wow, just thank you man. Appreciate it Christoph. 🇩🇪🙏
"It's good for my soul" - that's the key! :)
Tell me you're a ginger without telling me you're a ginger - "He's gonna get sunburned...." LOL
Killing me 😂😂😂
Thanks for this one, I for sure would've never listened to them otherwise 😁 Loving it ❤️
6:44 - lol Pitbull
LOL I love the video the music and the lyrics but I was laughing and crying my makeup off lol
That was an adventure. Loved it. I love your dry humor so much. "He...is gonna get sunburn." Killed me.
Man it's soo good to see you react to Nanowar!!! They are so funny and good to listen to.
Unfortunately there are a lot of songs that are in Italian so are actually kinda hard to get the references but they are awesome! Glad they went to sing in English so everyone can enjoy them!
Brilliant!
10:26 Listen carefully for "By sunlight we ride, ten thousand side by side..."
Nanowar's songs are full of references .. try listen something from their older albums .. eg "look at two reels" or their new "Uranus"
Damn.. i´m rewatching this and i wanna give it more likes!
I appreciate you!!!
Chase be like; 'How many genres are there in this?', Me an intellectual; "Yes"
😂👌
I need more of Nanowar of steel!
*This song literally reduced the cases of church burnings.*
Wow what a surprise !!! this freaking song is stuck into my brain and i can't stop listening to it. I feel like i'm in Cuba on vacation hahahaha Thank you again Chase, your channel always makes me discover new bands and this one is awesome hahaha so funny !!!
Oh my...you reaction...🤣🤣🤣
Can you imagine if Tuomas was actually in this 🤣 I don't think I would be able to handle it 😛.
I stumbled across this a few months ago! I like it. It is funny and well made.
Nice one again Chase! Good job👍
Honestly i didn't see such resemblance but still...
Tuomas doing reggaeton: that would be too much for me also!🤣🤣🤣
You already deserved that thumb up just for doing Nanowar! 😂 I immediately had a grin on my face. 😂
WOW! So much fun!
thank you so much for this reaction. I love humor, I love Metal and I love Reggaeton. so this song became instantly my favorite Nanowar of Steel song, when I first heard it. but there are many more. 😄
and it's so cool that the artists are starting to find you and to appreciate what you're doing. any messages from Floor or Tuomas yet? 😁
I've since now just saw your's Nightwish videos.....ok, i'm having a stroke of how much i'm laughing on this hahahahahahahahahahaha you're trying to be serious.....and they are clearlly not being serious hahaha
Found this channel because of the song, usually you find amazing songs because of channels keep it up boet.
You will love Valhalleluja!
The spanish part:
Viking heart of Santo Domingo, the burned church, the piña colada.
Let's dance with Det som engang var
Cuban warrior, pagan dancer, drinking mojito at the sacrifice
let's dance with hellhammer and varg
Desecrate the grave to the rhythm of the rumba, with Fenriz and Darkthrone
norwegian reggaeton
This crazy life, to watch the seal, roasting a salmon
norwegian reggaeton
Latin Nordic, how Luciferian, kill the enemy but slowly
Let's dance on the beach of evil
Move your hip with my armor, Satan raises my temperature
let's dance in evil ritual
jajajajaja when my "regaetoner" friend heard it she fell in love.
oh and for those that are wondering "Det som engang var" is Norwegian for "what once was" and Varg is a wolf in norse (which is a bit more obvious).
Oh man, their play on the metal genre is superb. Barby, Milf Princess of Twilight as a perfect example of parody on italian power metal. Or Valhalleluja. Or basically every other song from them.
I have noticed that artists that don't take themselves too seriously, like Weird Al or even Babymetal, work in large part because their musical foundation is solid. And now you can add Nanowar of Steel to that list. I really enjooyed this.
I often don't listen to new artist reactions; I love music, it feeds my soul, but life is super busy right now, and if there is a new band I want to give them the attention they deserve but that's not in the cards right now. But I have time for these guys
I've heard it said time and again by people listening to Nonowar... you expect them to be crazy "intelligent hilarious" (is that a humor genre?) but.. what blows people away again and again is the music they deliver is absolutely first class, kick @$$ excellent caliber rock metal baby.... wow so appreciate your confusion chase... who the hell are these people?
Master of pauses did it again! Great reaction...
Chase, this one is going straight to my playlist) Absolutely adored f'n second of this song! Thank you for the reaction, love the awkward dancing and airdrumming.
I love the homage to Manowar on the bridges ‘by sunlight we ride…’ 😂
The parts in spanish are so fun too.
Profanar al tumba, al ritmo de la rumba...
Gigatron band is a metal band that does parodies, pretty famous in Spain since some years ago. No surprise this guy is here really xD
Vallhaleluja is where you need to go next.
Loved your reaction, and enjoyed the technical breakdown. Next HAS to be Valhallelujah !
