Imagine you're at a polka festival and these two guys come onstage and play this.
You'll go torch stuff after that
All the old people start walking again. XD
My grandma would definitely get the hoveround circle pit going
I loose my shit...intoxicated....ejected
Torn between "WTF did I get spiked" and "I didn't realise they'd brought back Punk'd, where's Kutcher hiding"
I absolutely adore the references to the original music video.
Somebody get Herman Li to react to this.
Probably gotta show it to Weird Al too. I'm sure he'd absolutely flip for such an amazing accordion showcase
Yeah, Herman Li would be blown away by this.
@Matthew Brooks Get Herman Li and Weird Al to do a duet to this.
@@genericnamehere7602 oh fuck. yes pls!
HERMAN WHERE YOU AT BOIIII??
How did the accordion not burst into Fire and Flames, while playing that song. Amazing.
Bayan, to be precise
LOL
Obviously they figured out how to watercool an accordion. That's the most logical answer I can come up with...😂
@@gotby nah these aren't bayans. These are PIGINI accordions under the name of the well known accordionist Lasse Pihlajamaa, the black model is called "Revontuli" and the white is a "Stage Star Professional Cassotto"
4:10 HE DID THE LEGENDARY MARIO KART LICK ON AN ACCORDION AND NO ONE IS TALKING ABOUT IT. Nice touch btw
Sorry, can you explain what that is? 😅
lmao the second i heard it i knew i'd find the comment about it
@@enraikow6109 It's a meme in the jazz community (search "mario kart lick jazz", i'm sure many examples will pop up)
Oh ffs you're right
I was sorta zoning out "this is another by the book cover" until I heard that. They added in so many nice touches to make the song their own. It's greatly appreciated
I expected a shitpost but this is unironically just a super high quality cover. One of the best covers of Fire and Flames I've heard.
The best things are when it is both.
2:55 I said out loud “oh, it’s just a super high quality shitpost”
its through the fire and flames
It almost seems like it was written for the accordion.
a Through the Fire and Flames cover is never a shitpost my friend
This is what TH-cam should be for. Pure talent. I’m blown away.
nah. tiktok is for the purest of pure talent
"flippy like a flippagram"
And cat videos.
One of many good things it should be for. :)
I agree, but also don't.
TH-cam should be for having fun and giving your viewers a good time, not "how do I get more subscribers?"
Suddenly, the bards leaped forward to unleash a salvo of mighty notes at the enemy; no mere tavern songs, these, but each phrase channeling the power of long-forgotten lore and stories of mighty heroes. 🎼⚔️
The amount of skill it takes to play like this is insane. I have been playing Accordion myself for 12 years, giving live concerts, playing in competitions etc. but what those 2 are showing here is just on such a high level, that i am just sitting here being completely baffled. That really motivates me to keep pushing me further and grinding more. Thank you guys ❤
I'm pretty sure the accordian is the hardest looking instrument to play.
I never thought it was possible to produce such raw, sexual power from an accordion. Well done lads
Legit after the first 30 seconds messaged my lady and said "Im learning how to play the accordion" no hesitation she said no, looks like Im going to be the most eligible bachelor on next season of accordion master
*laughs in Weird Al*
Guess who never heard of Weird Al before...
@@Ni_ghtmareShould have showed her then finger movements. She'd have begged you to learn.
Jaw dropping - 200+ bpm , accordion sweeps, drum fills, pac man noises, unique accordion harmony fills, the solo beer. Solos on this are mesmerizing. I hope this becomes as legendary as the flute cover.
Wait, there's a flute cover? Do you mean the Algal cover, which is awesome and in style (medieval/bard whatever), but has absolutely nothing to do with the original's technicality, if that's a word (not a native speaker). Sure, there's "solos", but in the original meaning (solo as in single instrument takes the lead), which is super on point for what he's doing! Again - really really good cover for a XVI century tavern band. Buuuuut... not "solos" as in metal.
These guys play metal! The solos are metal solos!
@@--Lam nope, I think they're referring to this video: th-cam.com/video/tyTz_-EQOXE/w-d-xo.html
Also loved their imitation of the guitar string breaking at the end of this song.
@@--Lam Look up the flute/recorder cover by Alejandro. There is the original version from 12 years ago and a more recent remastered version.
There is! And it's called the dragon flute.
How is this unironically more impressive than if it was on guitar? Absolutely amazing.
@@fr3tn0iz you did not just say that
@@fr3tn0iz Studioforce that can't even play half of their songs live. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
And this is just another reason I do not consider this instrument a joke instrument. Some truly great music has been played on these and, well this is one of the most epic!
TH-cam algorithm finally delivered this gem to me. Millions of views incoming lads, enjoy the ride! Thanks for this masterpiece
Hello from 2023
It certainly deserves that much
All hail the algorithm
The wave is coming
The only possible thing that could make this better would be Weird Al singing vocals. Outstanding work, I didn’t know I needed this.
It's totally something he'd be down for, guaranteed. Would love to see it become a reality 🤞
The man opened up the medium for artists such as these, the man deserves a Grammy Oh wait he's won 5 and been nominated 8 times, the man's an inspiration which is why they are probably parodying this song in the first place
That would be awful
I was going to say! Someone call him for a colab!
@@cotadelgadohectorernesto9969 But in a good way, though. 🤣
I watched Dragon Force's Herman Li react to this video, and I've swung by to hear it yet again for 3 days in a row now. Very impressive guys.
Anyone else get like... scared for the accordians around the 4 minute mark? Brilliant. Instantly subscribed.
This was perfection, all the way from every run to the mario kart lick in the middle. Slapped harder than Will Smith, 5/5
I laughed about your slapping comparison! 😅
As explained by Herman Li, it's the 'Pacman noise'.
Wait will smith was 9 months ago da fuq?
Bwahahah! 😂
@@lucarinaldichini324 this mf laughing like bowser 💀
I will never complain about playing this song on Guitar Hero ever again. Amazing job
the amount of trust you need to have in your partner to be able to pull this off is incredible. amazing musicians and some sibling love and trust right there
The Million dollar question is HOW IS THIS EVEN PHYSICALLY PISSIBLE. you two have my complete respect. You did awesome. Thank you for such a great cover
This is simultaneously the most amazing and most ridiculous thing I've ever seen. Absolutely glorious.
Mastering TTFAF on your favorite instrument automatically makes you a legend. 🙂
For real
I cant believe it! You guys even did the choreography from the original music video when Sam and Herman do the guitar battle! Even the drinking between solos! Every square inch of this absolutely shines with the amount of love and effort you put into it. I'm so fucking impressed!
I like how during the solo they both drink water when they're not playing, much like the guitarists did in the original Dragonforce video.
This is literally the best TTFAF cover ever. I didn't know you could shred on an accordion until today
I bet you haven't watch the recorder cover of TTFAF
From Algal the Bard? Totally different kind of skill but also excellent. With his I like how it's totally rearranged and is even in a different time signature.
It used to be my job to play humppa, often with an accordionist ... Polka, humppa, masurka and other genres are nothing but accordion shred! Feels like jazz, 'the song' exists as a platform of changes for the w***er to wan-solo over.... and over, and over, and over and over.
@@yoshimitsu5537 I assume raven is talking about the 12 year old cover from Alejandro Sayago; which Herman Li also reacted to. Alejandro also has a 2021 version on his channel.
This is just insane. Both players were so into it. This is what TH-cam was made for.
This, in fact, is stupidly insane. I'm shocked by this this video. My jaw dropped so hard that it broke the ceiling in the room of my neighbors which live below me.
I wish Morander brothers all the best in their music career.
the Piazzolla interpolation is *masterful* and gives me chills on top of everything else, absolutely stellar, unmatched cover
Blown away. You guys make accordion look metal as hell.
its always be one of folk metal intruments.. what are you talking about
Check out Arkona and Kalevala, they use accordion in their folk metal sound, and it’s fucking awesome.
Anything can be metal if you try hard enough. Look at Violens
First time this sentence has ever been uttered in history.
@@gamingch4538 Ewww, folk metal :barf:
Being perfectly in time with each other with no drums or anything. Respect.
To say this is epic is a massive understatement.
As a Dragonforce fan, I highly appreciate the accuracy not only to the song itself but the little nods to the music video! You just earned yourselves a new fan!
You two shred so hard on accordion. Wait...WTF? How do you manage to SHRED on an accordion? And it's so slick, clean and precise! It's actually scary! I'm shocked.
The man to answer how do you shred on accordion is Weird Al, but you already knew that 😅
When the bard rolls a 20 on a performance check
Superhuman hands and I feel that's an understatement. Definitely the most technical cover I've seen from this song.
The accordion is the greatest instrument ever created. Change my mind.
I love how so few of us can comprehend how Herman Li can make those sounds on a guitar but these guys have mimicked it perfectly on a accordion. Most impressive.
Never headbanged to an accordion before. Pure perfection.
And for 7 minutes and 42 seconds the accordion was the most badass instrument on the planet!
I didn’t realize just how beautiful the accordion was as an instrument. This is definitely the most slept on instrument in all of music. Seriously what an incredible cover.
May I recommend, for your consideration, the hurdy gurdy as another contender.
The harpeji is also pretty cool
I know absolutely nothing about how accordions work or are played, but I am absolutely mesmerized by how their hands are absolutely FLYING
As a fellow accordion player I feel obligated to comment on this video... This has to be one of the most phenomenal performances I've seen in a while. Playing the individul parts is one thing but playing together in sync and performing to the camera/audience takes this to another level. Well done!
And I wonder how long did it take to learn the damn thing! That's what I want to know! As a kid, I tried to learn to play the accordion, the kid in the neighbour tried to teach me. He had no formal training at all, just a natural talent learned from his father. He told me, that the thing that your left hand (alternating bass line) does is called "humpattaa", or trying to miserably translate it to English, "to humppa". I never learned that, and my learning stopped after getting the first few bars of My Bonni Lies Over The Ocean down. But these guys go note to note on an extra fast metal song and still they "humpattaa" too! I'm just laughing here in awe, I just can't handle this awesomeness! And the callbacks to the original video, just the perfect icing on the cake!
That right there is humanity at its peak
i have not seen every cover, but this so far is easily the best one yet. Is it normal to get emotional while watching an accordion performance? goosebumps.
This just FEELS like a viral video yet it only has 60k views at the time I'm watching it, this is genuine TH-cam gold omg
You know, it’s a shame that with all of this absolutely mind blowing musicianship, the choreography and video direction in this video really goes under-appreciated. This is just across the board fantastic.
If I got randomly recommended then it won't go under appreciated anytime soon
Whilst they are good quality (especially the audio), the video wouldn't be good if the musicians performance bombed. The camera could be stationary facing them using a built in mic like many highly viewed/liked TH-cam performances of old and this would still be widely praised.
To be fair, the choreography video direction is very standard for a “band performance” type video.
Definitely the highlight was them trading solos while the other took a drink of soda. 9.9/10 (didn't drink La Croix)
Congratulations on being reposted by the official Dragonforce channel🤟🔥
I came expecting a silly accordion cover of a great song. What I got instead was: incredible talent, an excellent arrangement, and a top tier accordion cover of a great song
This is MIND-BLOWING, y'all are incredibly talented! So glad the algorithm threw this my way!
2:54 Oh don't think I didn't notice you working those Piazzolla riffs into this cover! Amazing job! I can tell you had a ton of fun putting this one together.
Yes! What mastery!!!!!
Unexpected Libertango
As a man with fried dopamine receptors and a ruined attention span, this is the first video I've watched all the way to the end without skipping around in a *while*.
This is by far, one of the most incredible videos on TH-cam I’ve seen! You’ve simultaneously made Herman Li and Weird Al proud haha! Just an incredible amount of talent and Lord knows how many hours of practice! Absolutely amazing work guys!
You may also enjoy 2 Cellos
Their thunderstruck cover is great
Ok, that was a solid suggestion! Haha!
I was truly hoping for someone to mention Weird Al haha first person I thought of 😄 I'm sure he'd be really proud.
Like completely unironically, this is absolutely amazing and deserves WAY more recognition!
I'm curious why you can't just say, "This is absolutely amazing and deserves way more recognition." Did you really think people would misunderstand you without the "like completely unironically" disclaimer?
Makes playing that on Guitar Hero look like child's play. This is what skill looks like. Bravo.
When I thought it couldn't get better, it just went and got better.
The sheer amount of buttons/notes on an accordion already amazes me, but watching these two play like it's second nature to them is far more amazing. Truly a work of art, keep it up guys.
If two pirates had a hidden love for rock it would sound exactly like that
Incredibly well played
I discovered this thanks to Hermin Lee's reaction video. Had to hear it in full in all its glory! Awesome cover! #ThroughTheCarnivalsAndFlames
their passion for accordion is unbelievable! they prolly learnt to play it since they're still in the womb! 😮😮😮
As an accordionist myself, this is incredible in every way. Also, I find it quite funny that the name of one of you is Herman as well
It was made for them lol
stupid question but is it hard to learn to play accordion? that instrument mystifies me so much and idk why loi. i was a wierd kid and never grew out of it forgive me lol
@@justinfulton1305 it's hard for me to say for sure, because I've been playing it since I were 6, but I'd say it's not much harder than learning to play piano. It can be a bit tricky, but the general ideas are the same: either way, you have to learn to make your hands do stuff independently, and you need to memorize the "keyboards" sooner or later or you will be really slow at it. Both of these aren't that difficult to achieve so long as you practice, and then, it's only about learning to do more fast and complex stuff.
Also, I loved the accordeon the moment I saw it because of its piano keyboard for the right hand (weird reason, bit I *was* six, after all, but when I went to music school with my family, I've been recommended to try the button version instead, and to this day, I love the button accordeon, while the keyboard one is just alright, but nothing fancy. The reason is the general difference in sound: keyboard accordeons generally sound all French and funny, while a good button accordeon could be compared to an organ in terms of sound, making it perfect for playing classical music.
Good to see more of us, what's your current library highlight
@@alexlammers6371 Darude-Sandstorm
Wait...! Has anyone else noticed Finnish Polka (Säkkijärven polkka) at 3:33?!?!😲😍🤘
Accordion is like one of the hardest instruments to play - so many different movements and keys to hit. This is insane to watch!
The fact I can hear their fingers clicking the keys make this even better when they do the runs. This actually makes me smile, seeing someone use the accordion and play a wicked song like this, and it sound just as lit and impressive as the original. Truly, one of, if not the, best works of a cover with an unlikely instrument.
Will forever be grateful this randomly appeared in my feed… as an aspiring accordionist, this reignited my passion to learn and I’ll be practicing endlessly now
I never thought I’d see the day my face was melted off by accordions. This is sick af.
Herman Li sent me here! This is amazing!
Thanks TH-cam. I guess I'm gonna listen to DragonForce for the first time in a decade. Amazing skills here.
I've never once heard two men play accordion so well, much less shred on them. Absolutely astounding work.
Homeschooling has some advantages.
These guys are out here liking every comment. That's an awesome amount of appreciation to their audience. And they can shred 🎶🎹
Best "Through the Fire and Flames" cover ever!
Sixteen years ago I was absolutely floored by the video for this song.
Sixteen years later I am equally floored by this.
Controlling everything, even in tandem with each other. Living, breathing, through your instrument. Insane.
God, even on accordion this song makes me emotional, i don't understand why I'm crying lol
My fingers are sore just from watching.
I have never listened to a song on accordion all the way through until today.
The way they hand off lead melody and backup is crazy smooth and talented.
Some songs were just meant for accordion. Incredible playing!
Might be the best cover of a song I’ve ever heard
Everyone, the reason it sounds so good, is because there PASSION put in this.
The amount of talent that it would take to even figure out how to play all the parts for multiple vocalists, two guitarists, a bassist, and a pianist , across only two accordion is very impressive. Actually playing it is something truly talented.
This deserves at least 100 times more views. 14k is criminal
i think rhe algorythm is starting to do its job ^^
i'm just adding the numbers to this video's comments because it's such a splendid cover and i'm quite speechless.
Was lazily scrolling through TH-cam, searching for maybe some traces of copper, and found a whole freaking sea of gold and platinum. One of the best things I encountered recently. Absolutely amazing!
Through the Baguettes and Berets
Yup OK thank you algorithm this is exactly the shit I needed. Absolutely incredible musicianship lads!
I refuse to believe that anything with that many buttons can be played with such a high degree of accuracy, especially this fast.
Amigos, sou brasileiro, moro na região Nordeste, no estado de Pernambuco. Faz parte da nossa cultura o Acordeon. É espetacular o que vocês fazem! Parabéns e espero ver muito mais vídeos de vocês! Ganharam mais um seguidor! Abraços do Brasil!
Finalmente achei um brasileiro!!!
Camarada sou do Sul do Brasil, do Rio Grande do Sul pra ser mais específico, o uso do acordeom por aqui é algo que já está enraizado em nós gaúchos.
Fiquei completamente embasbacado com esse sensacional cover!
E ainda mais por ser em gaita ponto!!!
Somos 3 então... Lembrei do meu velho avô tocando guri na gaita... Ele ia ficar apavorado vendo esses 2
Vou tocar essa na hora de pular a fogueira na festa de São João.
@@VNeto94 mas tem q pular no ritmo pra valer!
Hahahaha
Sou do sul e tô impressionado tbm
this was beautiful.....this video needs a few more million views and a Herman Li reaction for sure.
Excellent playing, staging, shot composition, and theatrics. I hope it was half as fun putting together as it looks.
The full nearly 8 minute version of through the fire and flames on accordion and it’s not complete bullshit. It’s actually crazy good quality at 200bpm madness. I can’t stress how cool and epic this is. This is real metal.
I feel like I'm playing the most epic final fantasy ever listening to this
This is the greatest cover of all time. Full stop.
Fantastic work, guys. I used to run this song daily on GH3. My wife saw me watching this and said it sounded like something was missing. I started vigorously clicking a joystick, and she said 'Ah there it is...'
Passion. The flame given to man to push him past limits.
These boys are fanning that flame.
That’s pretty cool.
I haven't been this amazed by a TTFAF cover since the flute guy. Absolutely masterpiece.
Ноги так и несутся в пляс! Братья Morander, рвите меха! Ууух!
That's hot.
How hot is it?
>Throws a bucket of water to the musicians. The water turns into steam before even touching them<
That hot.
Awesome cover, guys.
This is hot enough to melt concrete
@@tjhooker824 *insert 9/11 joke here also*.
They went through the fire and flames, after all. ;)
that's it, I'm hiring these guys the next time I get into a cinematic fight in europe
I'm more impressed by this than I am the actual song.
really amazing play
