KISS: "Leet's set a new world record of most pyro used during a live performance." Sabaton: "FINALLY! A WORTHY OPPONENT! OUR BATTLE WILL BE LEGENDARY!!!!"
Tank, I don't know if you realize this, but Sabaton making Night Witches is now truly a story that should never be forgotten. I did my own digging into the 588th, and sadly, I found out that the last Night Witch died in 2017 -- only a few short years ago. And just think: The women who died in combat were not recognized, until the commandant of the regiment went out, after she retired in 1956, and found the crash site of every one of her Night Witches. In this way, she ensured that her girls would be recognized for their dedication and service. Songs like these are why these stories should never be forgotten -- because had it not been for Sabaton, I would never have learned about the Night Witches, and what they accomplished on the Eastern Front. Much respect to those women who decided that it wasn't enough to merely sit on the sidelines -- they wanted their chance to take the fight to the Germans. And they got their wish. May those brave women of the Night Witches live on forever, in the tales and deeds, of what they did. They deserve to never be forgotten.
I can’t wait till you get to Swedish Pagans. Always great energy from the crowd plus the running gag of Thobbe/Tommy insisting they play it and Joakim’s adamant refusal. 😂
The Night Witches were fucking wild man. They would fly to their target in darkness, shut off their engines to stealthily glide, drop their payload, and restart their engines to get away. But they didn't have an automatic ignition to start their planes. They were given the shittiest planes in the Air Force because they were all female. They had to climb onto the wings mid-air to manually restart the propellers before climbing back in to the cockpit. Oh and they didn't take parachutes.
I'm surprised the engines couldn't be restarted from the prop windmilling - most piston-engined aircraft can be started that way. it's still a checklist item, and engines now have higher compression ratios (partly because fuel is better and more consistent, partly because metallurgy has [thankfully] moved on a bit), so older aircraft should start more easily that way. Just set the magnetos to both, throttle partly open and raise he fueling from idle/cutoff to as high as you need to get it started. If it doesn't start, fuel back to i/co, 30s full throttle to dry the cylinder and un-foul the plugs, then try again. Repeat until impact. Ages since I could fly anything, and it is still a memory item. [edit] fact check - these were single-engined aircraft, so climbing ut on the wing was meant to achieve what, precisely?[/edit]
"They had to climb onto the wings mid-air to manually restart the propellers" how would they do that, since the engine is not on the wing? Also not needed. See Phil Lee 's comment. Still fucking wild though 🤟🔥
Actually, they were given planes that were built in the 1920s for agricultural and training purposes, that were 'remodeled' to bombers. The story about the women having to climb onto the wings happened, when the mechanism for dropping the bombs wouldn't work (which happened occasionally, as it was added hastily) and they had to do that manually. The engines and propellers were not on the wings though.
Definitely one reason why I love this song almost most from all live versions of Sabaton is that the pyrotechnics in the beginning assist the story telling of the song, after the air raid sirens the pyrotechnic effects make it look like antiair-gunfire, followed by the explosions of the planes' dropped bombs. This is so perfectly implemented in the show. I just have to love it. ^^
FROM THE DEPTHS OF HELL IN SILENCE...... Oh man, that blast is just... that cadence, that rythm, that feeling of bombs dropping, that alone makes it one of my absolute favorite Sabaton songs. Amazing pick !
Chris Rörland uses ESP H-series 7-strings. Tommy switches between Ibanez S-series and ESP M-series (most likely LTD M-1000). He has also used a Charvel Gary Moore strat replica that was custom built for him. He has one in red and one in white. He used them on The Last Stand tour when he joined but didn't bring them on the latest tour.
I feel like Sabaton hits differently once you know more what the song is about. Watch Night Witches animated stories too. It’s well done! They have two animated stories so far: night witches and no bullets fly.
Sabaton songs somehow had a tendency to hit on the second listening I love "Soldiers of Heaven" - but only after a couple of times hearing it And most of the songs just give you even more gostbumps after learning the story behinde it And the bazooka: Weeeellll as always an accident and the band gooving around Hell and Back! I love them!
Please watch the new "No Bullets Fly" animation video. For that you don't even need to know the story because story and song are combined there. It's brilliant.
A fantastic welcome to Sabaton Saturday! As well as the history channel videos, there is a 7min official animated video that also gives the story: th-cam.com/video/5YPo8zDkvy4/w-d-xo.html
Hannes also has a “baby” Yamaha set for warm up/practicing off stage. That’s an official name for it, I’m sure 😂 You can see him use it in their vlogs a lot. Side note: their vlogs are really funny. Great group of guys.
Nightwish Wednesdays to Sabaton Saturdays? I can get behind this. Throw in some Nightwish, Gloryhammer, Twilight Force, Ex Libris, Delain, and some others and this will be a great 2021 reaction-wise
Night Witches is one of my favourites! :D Your pronunciation of En Livstid i Krig is excellent. Thank you for Sabaton Saturdays. I'm really looking forward to more videos.
Oh you have so much to look forward too! I have been a fan since i saw them the first time live in a small local rockbar where I live, i think that was in 2008 so that makes 12 years, seen them 8 more times since then, easily in the top three of best live bands I have ever seen!
Damn. That history lesson was amazing. Super impressed by those incredible women! What a song. First experience of Sabaton. Cool to learn about the connection to Nightwish, which sounds very close to "Night Witches" I thought he was going to fire fireworks out of the bazooka over the crowd. Would have been more epic but also far less safe. Really cool performance!
I *think* this was the opener the first time I ever heard Sabaton.... who were opening for my first Nightwish concert. My daughter & I have been fans ever since. I was quite the proud pappa when hearing 'Swedish Pagans' blasting from her car one day :). What I really love about Sabaton's music is that after you've given a listen & rocked out, there's a wealth of history behind each song. I've learned more about European history through Sabaton than I ever got in school. BTW - after you watch/react to 'Swedish Pagans', do yourself a favor & watch some of the viking-esque vids with SP as the soundtrack. They're a hoot.
I woke up this morning thinking 'we really need to get Tank to watch the video for Night Witches. I think he'll enjoy it.' And what was the first notification I saw when I turned on my phone? Tank reacts to Night Witches! Great way to start off my day!!! Also, I would like to suggest Price of a Mile for next Sabaton Saturday. It is one of my favorite songs of theirs. Like En Livstid i Krig it departs from their usual sound and is super emotional.
Hey Tank! Amazing that you reviewed this song and this live version - I was there, live, in Leipzig in my home city. It was an absolutely AMAZING feeling to be there. I am absolutely STOKED for Sabaton Saturday!
"Undetected unexpected" comes from them shutting their engine off ahead of the target and basically gliding in to drop their bombs. If the Flak-lights didn't get them the bombs sometimes came out of nowhere.
i was at their concert in borlänge yesterday and they opened it with night witches which was an incredible banger live and they're amazing when it comes to crowdwork and getting us involved :D
There is this song "82nd All the Way" from Sabaton, Amaranthe covered it and there is a live version of Sabaton + Amaranthe performing it ^^ Would love to see a triple reaction :P xD
For something different by Sabaton I suggest their song "The Final Solution", which is a slower, quite emotional song about the Holocaust. They seldom play it live and I haven't found a good live video of it but since you are going to be reacting to a lot of Sabaton I think you should do the music video. You can talk about their gear some other time. :)
YEA! Was hoping you’d do shows from The Great Tour Others have already suggested great songs. But as a Marine I gotta suggest “Devil Dogs” Oh and “To Hell and Back” is basically their “I Want My Tears Back”
This was the first song I heard from Sabaton. I initially heard it a few years ago, and I absolutely fell in love with their sound. This song is still one of my favorites from them. That chorus just hits so hard.
You NEED to check out Sabatons performance when filling in for Manowar at Hellfest 2019. The story behind it is a true testament to their dedication to their fans and the music that they play.
Hey, hey! But did you know that their drummer is married to Nightwish's vocalist?? 🤣🤣 Just kidding, bro! Another amazing video, loved the idea of the "Sabasaturdays"! Cheers from Brazil
And here it was 😂 Can't understand how I missed this.. because this is one of my favoritesongs. It gives me goosebumps and tears in my eyes. Thanks for this episode, I'll be pay more attention from now on 😂😂😂
Tank, my man, I LOVE this format. Sabaton Saturday is an awesome idea!! Being a military history nerd (what got me into Sabaton in the first place) I love how you're taking the time to read the backstory of the song and even watch their amazing Sabaton History channel. I can't wait to see more of these, I'll be right here every Saturday. LET'S GO!!
Whooooaaaaa you couldn't have picked a better one to kick off Sabaton Saturdays. As one of the driving forces behind The Sabaton Witches Division, the all female worldwide Sabaton fanclub, I feel honoured. Just like I did with Listid i Krig since I even run the Swedish fanclub. I'll sett my alarmclock every saturday as i have done the last half year for ll Nightwish Wednesdays ❤
Every show from Great tour was streamed live from stage (so you feel like you are with them,that was goal) and we got videos like this,for me better that standard ones.
Thilled to see more Sabaton Saturdays happen,as always-great reaction! I hope you will cover the live version of "The Red Baron" in Berlin,with Joakim,making a personal confession and showing some more music skills ;)
Love the channel man. Not only great music but its awesome to learn about instruments the artists use and the different equipment in their shows as well.
“Where I continue my personal journey discovering the music of Nightwi-“ oh, right. Gotta get used to that! So excited for this, Sabaton is one of my favorite bands, if not my favorite band! I highly recommend “To Hell and back” or “Screaming Eagles” next. I just wanna add I was listening to this without headphones, and the panning was still accurate for the guitars.
As a (proud) member of the all female Sabaton fanclub "Night Witches", I wholeheartedly approve of your choice for the first of the Sabaton Saturday series 😁 looking forward to the rest!
You should check out the studio version of The Final Solution. Its a loaded song, but the live versions really dont do it justice imo. But i know you're gonna love it.
Cant wait till you get to "Great War". I HIGHLY reccomend to watch the "official music video" in this case as it contains a lot of BTS and it is so awesome to see these guys having the best time of their lives! :D thx for your great videos!
Early evening here in Sweden and I watched this great reaction with a glass of wine. ☺️🍷(Maybe I should have beer instead for the next time... 😉). This is awesome! Sabaton used to have "The Great Saturday" when they released one video from the Great tour. I still miss that... On the other hand we now have this to look forward to every week!😄🤘 (And yes, I've subscribed. Since your first Sabaton reaction 😉). Cheers!!🍷
Thanks for this reaction Tank this was great. Don't know alot about Sabaton only know a few songs and I love them all favorite is The future of warfare and am looking forward to discovering this band with your channel. 🤘😜🤘
I love this song for many reason and one of my best Sabaton live experiences was when they premiered Night Witches live at Sweden Rock. They lit up the stage and those sirens started sounding.. Magic! The whole show there was amazing and you could tell it was emotional for the guys.
Great reaction Tank! Night Witches is my absolute favourite Song from Sabaton. With this intro in the live version it makes the song just more epic! I really love your idea to do a Sabaton Saturday! I am looking forward to!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Thanks for another great reaction Tank!! I'm glad you enjoyed that little touch at the end there 😂 Other great performances include The Red Baron and Attack of the Dead Men, both from the Great Tour. Looking forward to next Saturday 🤘
So happy to see sabaton Saturday, a worthy successor to nightwish. And as tank mentioned so worth checking out sabaton history to. They are so dedicated, along side sabaton, to keeping these stories alive
Sabaton Saturday!! \m/ Awesome choice, can't wait to take this journey with you! I'd highly recommend anything from the 2020 Great Tour Live videos (also worth checking out the version of Attack of the Dead Men with Radio Tapok in Moscow), anything from Woodstock 2012 Live, and the live show from Wacken 2019 (special anniversary for Sabaton with some cool extras)
Definitely one of my favorite Sabaton songs. I have only seen them live once(first time I ever heard of them, immediately started buying their music after the show), and it was at a small venue, so I didn't get to see production like that, but it looks like they have a really cool setup for their bigger shows.
Great reaction as always! I love to listen to your professional take on the tech (and music) ! And that you do some research about the song / band. Funny that I am just now beginning to appreciate Sabaton. I live 15 km from their hometown (Falun) and has seen them as "a good local band" ! Not realizing how big they are abroad , thanks to you and other reactors ! Cheers!
Wooow, Looking forward to the Saturdays now, can’t wait for you to dive into Sabaton even more 🤘🤘🤘 Thanks for GREAT reactions so far!! Pls dig deeper into the Carolus Rex album with the history around it!!
I've been at that show. Second row. It was a blast. It was my last live show in 2020. And Tank if you are interested you can watch some of their tour dairies on youtube. There they show a lot of the production team like the audio and pyro teams.
Awesome Tank! Time for some australian melodic death metal. A song your will be amazed by! You HAVE to do it. I have been suggesting it for at least 8 months now :P The Shift - Eye of the Enemy Cheers, William

The fact that Hannes Van Dhal is married to Floor is going to be the new "Emppu is playing EV-1" isn't it?
For sure. If it isn't already because of comments on Floor being married to Hannes, on Nightwish videos.
Saves me from making the comment myself on the matter, but hey Par always uses an ESP, so in some little way things never change that much.
I can’t wait till you get to Swedish Pagans. Always great energy from the crowd plus the running gag of Thobbe/Tommy insisting they play it and Joakim’s adamant refusal. 😂
The version from Wacken with Tina Guo is pretty great for this
the Wacken is to high block risk sadly
@@Erling_Swe Sadly true. But maybe ask for permission in front of it? might work
Oh my God same😂🤘
BAHAHAHA..... almost thought you were gonna say that Hannes was an exclusive artist of Floor Jansen
Hahahahahahahahahaha
He did play the drums on Floor's latest cover, didn't he?
@@mbo191 u call it cover, I call it sheets ;)
Joking aside, no idea... not really into Sabaton
Hope they are exclusive.😅

I, for one, approve of the introduction of Sabaton Saturdays!
I hope Joakim yelled "back blast area clear" before firing off that bazooka 😆
Nah, he would be saying "Skott kommer" (shot coming) and then the loader/spotter would yell "Klart bakåt" (Clear backwards).

Yes, it has to be the animated Video, even you prefer live. And you have to watch it till the last second.
As a keen military aviation nerd I knew the story but this video is so moving that tears were in my eyes until I saw the end and they started flowing!
Yes, I have to agree that these animated Story videos are so well done they deserve credit. I hope they make more of them.
Oh, shoot! I forgot where I parked my tank, and the alarm doesn't work.

Going for #TheGreatSaturday on Saturday. Can you imagine teching for these guys? The production for the Great Tour was top notch 👍
Nightwish with Chase followed by Sabaton with Tank. 2021 is off to an epic start. Thank you!

Handing off Nightwish Wednesdays to Sabaton Saturdays with the song “Night Witches”... I see what you did there.

Nightwish Wednesdays to Sabaton Saturdays? I can get behind this. Throw in some Nightwish, Gloryhammer, Twilight Force, Ex Libris, Delain, and some others and this will be a great 2021 reaction-wise
Night Witches is one of my favourites! :D Your pronunciation of En Livstid i Krig is excellent. Thank you for Sabaton Saturdays. I'm really looking forward to more videos.
I just recently started listening to Sabaton !! I fell in love with them straight away.
Oh you have so much to look forward too! I have been a fan since i saw them the first time live in a small local rockbar where I live, i think that was in 2008 so that makes 12 years, seen them 8 more times since then, easily in the top three of best live bands I have ever seen!

Greetings from Germany
I would like to give props to their sound engineers.. that mix job on sabaton's live tour
🙌🙌🙌

I saw them in London on the Great Tour and it was by far the greatest show I have ever seen!
Love that one, Tank! Keep it up with Sabaton!
sidenote: I am in the crowd there :D
I was also in the crowd mate :)
Hey Tank! Amazing that you reviewed this song and this live version - I was there, live, in Leipzig in my home city. It was an absolutely AMAZING feeling to be there.
I am absolutely STOKED for Sabaton Saturday!
Awesome!!!! Saw them 2016 at the Corona Northside Open Air in Monterrey Mexico. Amazing band with the proper size of stage. Tank drum set was there!
Yay... Tank with Sabaton and Chase with Nightwish every Saturday... well Sunday for me... fantastic
I was one Day later in Frankfurt wirh my BFF at Sabaton Concert, supporters was Amaranthe and Apocalyptica

Saw them live in january 2020...absolutely epic.
Missing all of you!
I'm starting to get into these guys because of you, thanks !
Awesome!

Looking forward to future Saturdays! :D
Oooh, you're in for a treat. That song rocks every concert of them.
YEA! Was hoping you’d do shows from The Great Tour
Others have already suggested great songs. But as a Marine I gotta suggest “Devil Dogs”
Oh and “To Hell and Back” is basically their “I Want My Tears Back”
This was the first song I heard from Sabaton. I initially heard it a few years ago, and I absolutely fell in love with their sound. This song is still one of my favorites from them. That chorus just hits so hard.

Nice way to start Sabaton Saturdays
Till this day, after listening to sabaton for 6+ years, this is the strongest song intro ever, especially this live version. Change my mind.

Early evening here in Sweden and I watched this great reaction with a glass of wine. ☺️🍷(Maybe I should have beer instead for the next time... 😉). This is awesome! Sabaton used to have "The Great Saturday" when they released one video from the Great tour. I still miss that... On the other hand we now have this to look forward to every week!😄🤘 (And yes, I've subscribed. Since your first Sabaton reaction 😉). Cheers!!🍷
Thanks for this reaction Tank this was great. Don't know alot about Sabaton only know a few songs and I love them all favorite is The future of warfare and am looking forward to discovering this band with your channel. 🤘😜🤘
Hell yeah!! Sabaton Saturday’s is going to kick ass!! 🤘🏻🙌🏻
Hey Tank what a great start for the Sabaton saturday 💪 wish you the best for 2021 And don‘t forget to Rock’n’Roll 😜
I love this song for many reason and one of my best Sabaton live experiences was when they premiered Night Witches live at Sweden Rock. They lit up the stage and those sirens started sounding.. Magic! The whole show there was amazing and you could tell it was emotional for the guys.
Great reaction Tank! Night Witches is my absolute favourite Song from Sabaton. With this intro in the live version it makes the song just more epic!
I really love your idea to do a Sabaton Saturday! I am looking forward to!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
My favorite Sabaton song! Hope you're doing well Tank
Thanks for another great reaction Tank!! I'm glad you enjoyed that little touch at the end there 😂
Other great performances include The Red Baron and Attack of the Dead Men, both from the Great Tour.
Looking forward to next Saturday 🤘
Love the Sabaton. Awesome band and musicians. Thanks as always for the tech info.
So happy to see sabaton Saturday, a worthy successor to nightwish. And as tank mentioned so worth checking out sabaton history to. They are so dedicated, along side sabaton, to keeping these stories alive
Sabaton Saturday!! \m/ Awesome choice, can't wait to take this journey with you! I'd highly recommend anything from the 2020 Great Tour Live videos (also worth checking out the version of Attack of the Dead Men with Radio Tapok in Moscow), anything from Woodstock 2012 Live, and the live show from Wacken 2019 (special anniversary for Sabaton with some cool extras)
Sabaton Saturday with Tank!? 2021 just got a great start :D
really stoked about the Sabaton Sats , very cool band , bags of energy, catchy riffs and chorus and good history.. Thanks Mate
Love the t-shirt, a Sabaton tribute to Helloween with the pumpkin
I'm ALL IN on Sabaton Saturday! LFG!! Great reaction as always \m/ (that Nanowar vinyl is looking good in the background btw)
Definitely one of my favorite Sabaton songs. I have only seen them live once(first time I ever heard of them, immediately started buying their music after the show), and it was at a small venue, so I didn't get to see production like that, but it looks like they have a really cool setup for their bigger shows.
Great reaction as always!
I love to listen to your professional take on the tech (and music) !
And that you do some research about the song / band.
Funny that I am just now beginning to appreciate Sabaton.
I live 15 km from their hometown (Falun) and has seen them as "a good local band" !
Not realizing how big they are abroad , thanks to you and other reactors !
Cheers!
Wooow, Looking forward to the Saturdays now, can’t wait for you to dive into Sabaton even more 🤘🤘🤘
Thanks for GREAT reactions so far!!
Pls dig deeper into the Carolus Rex album with the history around it!!
Sabaton Saturday, 2021 is starting out nicely already! Night Witches is a blast as well, great to see it kick the Saturdays off! Stay safe, Tank!
I've been at that show. Second row. It was a blast. It was my last live show in 2020. And Tank if you are interested you can watch some of their tour dairies on youtube. There they show a lot of the production team like the audio and pyro teams.
Awesome Tank! Time for some australian melodic death metal. A song your will be amazed by! You HAVE to do it. I have been suggesting it for at least 8 months now :P
The Shift - Eye of the Enemy
Cheers,

Headbanging so much that almost missed bazooka LOL!
This is going to be great. I saw them live The first time in 05 or 06🤘 have a nice jurney🤘
Germany, Leipzig Jan. 2020! I was there. Sadly my last concert so far.
Interesting that you have Blind Guardian playing in the background to your intro. Would love to hear more of them.
This is the best day of the week now... even if I watch it on Sunday lol
