Fun Fact: the Stormtrooper bassplayer's bass,is a Kiesel Guitars, ''Vader'' model.The owner of Kiesel Guitars is a big SW fanboi, they also have a guitar model called ''Solo''.
@@LOLMAN9538 but there is a question in my head about that now..... Galactic empire just announced a European tour where four of the nights clash with Babymetal..... Except for Berlin where they are both playing the same night.
Jillian Hernandez I saw the midnight showing after a Wednesday IMAX showing of The Force Awakens. So it was midnight Thursday for me (I'm from the UK). It's odd how the States got it a day after us.
Not only did you give me and my buddy chills throughout the whole song, you had better lightsaber combat than the sequels did. Also not a single slide when they hit sabers and locked, lore accuracy makes this so much better. overall 1 mil out of 10. this was so good and a perfect way to end the night when we found this. keep up the fantastic work. this was unbelievable.
I saw you guys live a couple months ago, and you guys were amazing! Not too many people showed up for your concert, and I felt pretty bad about it. You guys definitely deserve more attention for the awesome stuff you do
I saw them in Birmingham, UK and I remember it being pretty packed. Pretty scarce on the rest of what happened... Flip side of the coin, you got a neat intimate gig!
The music is great, and I love how well you did the fight choreography. Have you guys thought about entering the LCC (Lightsaber Choreography Competition) at all? I think you would do well!
I found it hilarious that in the choir aspect, the Jedi was cuffed yet laughing and sharing the note sheets with the Imperial or First Order Officer while singing.
I'm surprised the Empire (Disney) doesn't strike this down. Probably because, if they do, it shall become more powerful than they can possibly imagine.

true, it is actully, i researched it
A Guitar Solo
These guys were the backing band for Babymetal on their US tour, except for the drummer who is from Shadow of Intent. They did a phenomenal job!
Lol didn't think Shadow of Intent would have a connection to these guys
@@skyreach669 same lmao
I get the feeling Babymetal hired them partly due to their ability to play so damn well while wearing a mask.
They're still performing with BM today!

I’m glad to see that Darth Vader didn’t choke his performance like Padme
"You're afraid....that you'll never rock as hard as DARTH VADER!!"
Full album has been on Spotify for a year and I still listen to it religiously
rickwaldo7 same
Its a fucking masterpiece
I find your faith reassuring.
Oh they are SO added on my list too now, thanks for the tell!
May the Dark Side of the Force be with you.
The lightsaber effects are pretty damn great for something this low budget.
Thanks we did the best we could at Lucky Charm Studio
You could buy some really expensive lightsaber toys thats look like the actual thing
Hose Water Studios... And then fight with it???
Shadow fuck yeah
fistofan936 ... I agree
Releasing this on the same day as the new movie is fucking genius.
It came out yesterday...
linxus100 it came out at midnight which was Friday bruh....
This whole band, and concept, is fucking genius!

Yea the views lol
Congrats to Galactic Empire for filling in for BabyMetal's Kami Band during the North American leg of their current tour.
There was Star Wars metal in existence for at least 3 years and I didn't know? How did I miss it?! This is amazing!
I have to wonder how a Stormtrooper having such a terrible aim is able to hit the right notes on his guitar.....
That's why they have terrible aim. They spend too much time learning how to shred instead of at blaster practice.
Well it looked like they finally learned how to aim in the new movie.
cause their lovers, not fighters lol

These are good fights but cringe opinion on the sequel duels.
Who knew boba was such a killer on the drums?
Tyrantgod 64 of course, he is boba damn fett
The only thing he kills.
The name of the guy in this music video is actually Boba Sett. Might have something to do with it.
Its grant McFarland he's a beast
He is a beast at these damn drums
Impressive... most impressive! I especially enjoyed how they wouldn't let Kylo play haha
Yeah he spoiled
I thought he wanted a autograph
U suck Vader fight me bro kylo s my boy bro u wanna fight me Vader? I can get the high ground quicker than you bc you slow af bro come on
@@FN--tp2ce Having the high ground didn't help Darth Maul.
ElPayasoMalo that’s different
Fucking loved Kylo trying to get Vaders autograph! Still one of the best gigs I've been to seeing you guys in Birmingham, UK '17!
I saw you guys live a couple months ago, and you guys were amazing! Not too many people showed up for your concert, and I felt pretty bad about it. You guys definitely deserve more attention for the awesome stuff you do

so at least stormtroopers can hit notes. well done guys
Dom Okami hilarious
Bassist
We most certainly can.
I think it's awesome the amplifier cabs really say Mesa/Boogie in Aurebesh. Lol.
Whoa! Was not expecting this from Rise.
Right!? actual guitar work haha
this band has been around for 2 years...
Dude, that "Will you help me?" parody scene nearly killed me of laughing.
The cinematography, effects, props, costumes, AND music are incredibly amazing. Keep up the good work and may the force be with you all!
I’m a Star Wars nerd and just now finding this! This is so sick!!!
This channel will be reorganized into the first galactic empire
4:13 THAT move of letting go and grabbing hold again was fantastic! Bravo! I could see that being a real lightsaber move to avoid sliced-off hands
this is symphonic metal, & one of my absolute favorite genres
Use the G-string, Luke.
May the bass be with you
I watched this thousand of times and still I re-watch
The epicness is strong with this one!
One of the best songs ever written, and you made it better.
5:15 i love how they take music and random names and add them to star wars names
All of these are just bloody brilliant.
You guys rock! My kids and I love your album. Literally listen to it multiple times per week lol
All gimmicks aside, the musicianship is absolutely excellent.
From my hometown. They are damn amazing.
Duel of the Fates beyond awesome song 🤘🤘🤘 John Williams beyond music genius 💯
I wouldn't mind seeing this band in concert.
Imagine if appeared in Star Wars. I would love to see this as canon, along with the awesome music!
Being totally honest, "Duel of the Fates" is almost definitely the best thing to come out of the entire prequel trilogy.
Meesa thinkin yousa forgettin bout someone.
@@sam8404 LMAO
I gotta agree...Also’Jar Jar’Duel of the Fates was played when Maul was Taken out in EP I
Ewan McGregor as Obi-Wan: Am I a joke to you?
Anakin vs Obi-Wan as a song was good too
First stormtrooper I’ve ever seen hit his target OR a note… absolute banger!!!!
So they're allowed to dress up in the proper costumes again now?
The T only for music videos because no money is being made off of it.
Pretty sure they get CPM
Stephan Mosher no. The band does not make any money off of the music videos. It is the only way they can wear movie authentic costumes.
Or they could just being paying the royalty fee
Fuck beat me
The production on this is fantastic
Sweet Bendu, the bass playing, bass sound, and bass mix on this is sith fucking legend.
I'm so glad they made a video for my favorite song off the album
Bobba blast beats! ...and the choir ...my goodness.... Great production, across the board.
impressive... most impressive
dude this is awesome. loved the guitar bit in the middle with Ben
Saw these guys in Portland last night, amazing show! Very good live!
I can't believe I have never seen this before. I also can't believe I'm seeing you guys next week!!!! \m/
This is the greatest thing ever!!! Please come to Shiley Acres this summer in Inwood WV
Can't wait for the next album these guy put on a great show
This is absolutely sick.
Its even on Spotify, I needed this in life. Thank you.
The music is great, and I love how well you did the fight choreography. Have you guys thought about entering the LCC (Lightsaber Choreography Competition) at all? I think you would do well!
the lightsaber dual is just boss, for a music video like this is its unbeliveable
Damn those chords are righteous! Also Vader smacking the photo out of Kylo's hand was a good one.
Oh no it wasn’t
I love how as soon as Rise picked these dudes up they all have Kiesel and PRS's, fuck yeah!
This never gets old
The storm trooper that ran away was probs fin
Arch Enemy dont care if its a year old comment: fin wasnt around during the empire.
@@redviner but kylo ren was also on here
@@redviner No one corrected that for a year becuase they can all recognize a joke without having to try to jump in to be the 'smart guy'
I doubt he would be around in the empire but he is one thing a TRAITOR!!!!!
Kylo RenWanna bet that guy is legit TRAINED to yell that?
Better lightsaber action than the last jedi :b
Took me about 2 minutes to get into it - then I was hooked. Luv the Stormtrooper on guitar. All hail the Wilhelm scream!
Wow! way better than the actual movies + the music is always top notch
This is amazing. How have I never heard this before?
Everything about this song 👌🏼🤘🏼
I got chills when the drums started
Best version of Star Wars ever.
Easily even beats empire
Best thing i have EVER WATCHED
The band plays in Harrisburg this Saturday for may the 4th party. Harrisburg Midtown Arts Center!!!!!
I found it hilarious that in the choir aspect, the Jedi was cuffed yet laughing and sharing the note sheets with the Imperial or First Order Officer while singing.
Great video, made more sense then the movie! Plus the visuals were simply mind blowing!
AMAZING.. Please come back to orlando florida..
These costumes are so sick 🔥
Uuuuh yes, i heard it 10seconds and already know that my girl will love it 🖤 for the Imperium 🤘
Absolute kick ass!! Long live GALACTIC EMPIRE!! \m/ \m/
That Screaming guitar version of Kylo's theme at the start is Bang on..
Really ambitious and well performed!!
I really like it lol Lots of this album gave me goosebumps at times, haha!
この曲までやってくれたのね！かっこよすぎるわ！
Fun fact: that jedi that Kylo fought for the last consert ticket used the dual wielding style of lightsaber combat Jarr'Kai
The fucking lead guitar on the bridge is exceptional!
So good! Now the trilogy is complete
That was sick, dude!
Hoping to see them in San Francisco next month- maybe get my record signed!
lmaoooo darth vader like "gtfoh" to poor kylo
Didnt realize I needed boba fett playing drums in my life until now...
Saw you guys open for coheed. awesome live show.
Fantastic Earthlings!! We've got a great feeling about this. 👽
Don’t you dare try to destroy the First Order
Duel of the Fates with new foes.. Hell Yeah 🤘🏻🖤
5 minutes and 44 seconds... and more entertaining than any Star Wars product made by Disney.
Pure gold ml
The lightsaber battle was done really well! Has a good sense of weight to it.
star war was never as swag as it is now. I love it!
This is by far the best fucking thing I’ve seen in my life
This is the most epic thing i heard in a long while

I'm surprised the Empire (Disney) doesn't strike this down. Probably because, if they do, it shall become more powerful than they can possibly imagine.
The force is strong with this band. \m/
can't wait to see them live @Graspop next year :D
Imagine if this was in movie battle scene it would be soo great
seen them live at Graspop in Belgium, they were awesome!
This is the way to rock
I can't wait to see them in February.
