Now we want you to listen to F.... With an a anchor with Alestorm and then try not to singalong in chorus 😜
I will not make unfair promises 😂
@@SoulSingerDiscovers 🤣
If you want a good laugh you have to look at the alestorm song "Fucked with an Anchor"
Pirate Metal is a legitimate genre of metal
No, it's not. It's just a folk metal gimmick.
@@FuckRUclipsAndGoogleYes. Yes it is. Prove me wrong.
arrrrrrh!
It's not stylistically different enough from folk metal/power metal to be considered it's own genre.
@@FuckRUclipsAndGoogle en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pirate_metal
If you want more Scottish silly metal, try Gloryhammer and their tracks "Unicorn Invasion of Dundee" or "Angus McFife". Good clean (well) fun
and Angus McSix "master of the universe" or "in a past reality"
The brains behind Alestorm, Chris Bowes, actually has three bands, each with a different theme. There's obviously Alestorm which is pirate metal, and he sings and plays the keytar. He plays the keyboard in Gloryhammer, which is a powermetal band which tells a futuristic sci-fi story following the Kingdom of Fife (The Unicorn Invasion of Dundee is a fun song). His newest band is Wizardthrone, which calls itself extreme wizard metal. I don't have a recommendation for that one, but they've only got one album out thus far.
You had me at extreme wizard metal 😂
Probably suggest the song black hole quantum thermodynamics. Fucking awesome.
wtf i just learnt that he was also in gloryhammer xD
dont forget "Christopher Bowes and His Plate of Beans"
Haven’t heard Alestorm in about a decade. This song’s a lot goofier than I remember them being; I thought they were just a bit tongue in cheek. Still, a very fun song and I love comedy metal bands like Psychostick. Also, the animation in this was incredibly well done; very fluid like rum lol 😂
You should definitely check out their most recent couple of albums it's not all comedic and goofy, they go back and forth a lot. Definitely more goofy then the original albums though so I understand where you are coming from lol
if you haven't listened to this since this video go back and watch the video again with the CC turned on, don't look for other lyric sites go with the cc it's meant to be used you won't regret it.
It´s pirate party time!
If youre looking for more Scottish metal, Hellripper is a one-man band from Aberdeen that does indeed rip Hell. "The Nuckelavee" is a recent career highlight with his most explicitly Scottish lyrics.
7:07 I'm so Glad You had Fun with this One ALESTORM never gets Old. 🥳🥳🥳🥳
They are good fun 😊
Fyi. When you watch their videos. Turn on closed capitons. They hide some hidden gems among them.
Will Do :)
I'm sorry but if you need to see just how Scottish Alestorm is, you need to hear about their adventures with Dread Captain Fannybaws :D
they take a lot of inspiration from folk music they've even done covers of some 1960s folk songs like Flower of Scotland and Henry Martin by Joan Baez
Electric callboy is another silly, fun, catchy metal band. Check out 'We got the moves' by them.
You should watch it again with subtitles enabled... they hide some epic fun in those...
Is there any TOOL coming up in the near future?
More tool and Nightwish to record in the coming week 😊💪
My favorite Alestorm song is “Nancy the Tavern Wench”.
There are a million and one serious songs and metal bands out there, and they are great, but music is about feeling and happy, fun, silly are just as valid an expression as any deep introspection thought provoking attempts to change the world.
I agree with this so hard ❤️😊
Exactly. Music should be fun more than anything. I love a great political or social message being spread through art, but sometimes I need to turn my brain off to chaos of the world and just have a good time.
@thatmelisakelly
So what does P.A.R.T.Y. stand for?
Peter Alcorn's really tasty yogurt?
Pirates are really terrible yachtsmen?
People's association of rhinoceros tickers (Yucatan)?
There were many pirate captains who sold their souls to the Divell for such trifles as bullet invulnerability, incredible luck and so on...
But there is only one, who made a deal with Old Harry in exchange for a keytar and a pair of ears that allow him to add some ten knots to speed while sailing a broad reach.
All hail cap'n Christopher Bowes!
2:55 When I Hear the Words SCOTTISH PIRATES & METAL in the Same Sentence, I KNOW what to Expect. 🤣
It's not just Scotland. Their guitarist is Hungarian, so of course they made a song "Magyarorszag" about living the pirate life in the landlocked country of Hungary.
Comedy metal bands are some of the best, with ones such as Alestorm, Electric Callboy, lawnmower deth, Attilla and, of course, Brojob.
Everything needs some lightness to counteract the dark seriousness, and metal is no different.
YOU can see Alestorm live on 3rd March 2024 Glasgow
I forget which album it's on but Alestorm do a very good rendition of 'Flower of Scotland'.
I can’t listen to it, my dude. I will almost certainly start Civil War, because it will make me feel like such a Scottish patriot, but I will start a movement to have Scotland cut in half a Hadrian’s wall, so we’re not connected to England anymore. 😆 🏴
@@SoulSingerDiscovers I understand Melissa.
I may be English on the surface if you listen to me but I was born in the Kingdom of Fife.
Off-topic, but you asked. The stereotypical pirate we all think of is mostly from one person. Robert Newton as Long John Silver in Dianey's Treasure Island. He used a west country accent for his character and the image stuck.
You should check out Austrian Death Machine for another silly band, all their songs are about Arnold Schwarzenegger movies 😆
Alestorm is amazing, very first song I ever heard by them I heard in my local pool hall and was thoroughly surprised by the vocals, 1741 The Battle of Cartagena. by far one of my favorites def recommend it will surprise you
Alestorm is we're on the way home fra work and need something lighthearted what for to listen to loudly. It's also brilliant when you're having a party as well, as long as there aren't sensitive types about.
Your next adventure on the high seas should include Death Throes of the Terror Squid
You wanna hear somethin that will rock ya? Beast in Black- Blind & Frozen. Your're welcome
Yes! Wayyy late to this video but… such is life! I personally think the best album is Sunset On The Golden Age with the title track and 1741 being the best tracks off it… but it’s just great music and such a load of fun! Glad you had a great time! 🤘
I'll check it out! 😊
I feel like having a beer 😂
Dooo iittt!!!! 😂
Alestorm is always good fun. Although, if I'd have chosen one from their more recent, super goofy stuff, I'd have gone with "F**ked With an Anchor."
you've discovered the lyrical genius that rhymes "the alcohol is free" with "the alcohol is free", congratulations
what a time to be alive!
I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE THIS BAND !!!!!!! 😎🥳🏴☠ ( ALL HAIL THE RUBBER DUCK !!!!! 🍻🦆)
i know you reacted to this months ago, but you REALLY need to watch this song again with the captions ON
thank me later
THAT WAS FUN ! Soo good!
Talking serious and un-serious music: what is the noble task of music?
In my book: to bring joy to the people. @ Melisa: are you familiar with Clanadonia? They are from Scotland, too. Try to find i.e "Hamsterheid", played live in the streets.
Greetings from the far north of Germany!
Hey Peter! I haven’t! I will look them up. Thanks for watching my dude! It was a fun one to make 😊
@@SoulSingerDiscovers It will warm your heart, to watch these half-naked men, bringing joy to so many. My word!
@@SoulSingerDiscovers
Ah I was looking for this Alestorm song for you.
Hopefully will make you proud to be Scottish. 😊

Divinyls - I Touch Myself REACTION😁
That was a pretty cool video. Whenever I think of rock bands from Scotland, the first two that come to mind are Nazareth and the Sensational Alex Harvey Band. Both of them are more hard rock than heavy metal, but they are both amazing. If you have never heard of them, you should definitely give them a listen. Cheers! 🥃
Thanks Jeffrey, I’m really glad you enjoyed it. Definitely still to check out Nazareth. 😊
Uploaded 18 seconds ago. Yay!
Spinal Tap. Any song. Although Bitch School (not in the film but released a few years later) is a classic! One of my all time favourite films. Love it!
I think I will do a spinal tap tune and luckily I don’t think I’ve heard this one! Thank you my dude 😊👍 I’ll credit you in the vid for the suggestion ❤️
@@SoulSingerDiscovers Always happy to help. 😊
Hi from France, this song is great, I have a allbum full signature of this band.
Nice! 😊
@@SoulSingerDiscovers Sorry for my bad English, i'm French => noob or poor.
These are one of my favourite bands they are so good 🤘🧙♂️
It’s such fun 🥰
I don't think I know of a bad song by Alestorm, but I couldn't help thinking that if I were to pick a song to introduce this band to someone new it would not have been this one by a long shot. There are FAR more epic songs that I would have suggested first like "Keelhauled", "Drink", "Mexico", "Tortuga", "Fannybaws", and "Shipwrecked!" I WANT TO SEE YOUR REACTION TO THESE!
Yeah I want to see her react to the actual band in costume and make-up.
Please do another Alestorm song! "Drink" is a much better song to do!
Someone has informed me that there is a song called Fannybaws. It’s not a case of if I return to Alestorm, it’s a case of when. 😆
@Melisa Kelly - You will LOVE the video for Fannybaws, and may recognize the person playing Fannybaws in said video!
The artist who did that also made one of a song from the TV cartoon “Donkey Kong Country” known as “pirate’s scorn”
Also done by alestorm, a cover at least… it’s pretty good
If you want some other Pirate Metal to check out which is not as "goofy", try Lagerstein & Visions of Atlantis.
Well, I'm in love.
Face Eating Owl is a glorious name 😂🦉
Hi Melissa you need to watch The Sensational Alex Harvey Band if you want a good Scottish rock band or Hocus Pocus by Focus if you want any earwax removed
Other fun Alestorm songs: Keelhauled, Mexico, Nancy the Tavern Wench, Fucked by an Anchor, Questing upon the Poopdeck, can't really think of a song I don't like from them.
There has always been space in the metal community for this. Literally since metal was invented. I still remember Mr. Ed Jumps the Gun from the 90s. In fact I might still even have the CD 😛
See them live sometime. They're a hoot. There are only drinking songs. People jumping around.
Sometimes you need a good drinking song 😆
@@SoulSingerDiscovers Indeed. When would you not? :P
For another comedy band, I'd love to see you react to Valhalleluja by Nanowar of Steel. It’s wild 😂
Oh you definitely need to listen to Fannybaws by Alestorm. You must be the only reactor that would get all the references.
😂😂😂 I am definitely gonna do that
5 o'clock on a friday? you're starting late lol
If you want fun then you also gotta check out some electric callboy
Wonderful name! I’ll check it out 💪
If we want comedy try Lawnmower Deth!
Or the Bad News version of Bohemian Rhapsody… for a slightly deeper cut! If you do listen to that one bear in mind it was Brian May playing the guitar parts!
Try Keelhauled. It's a hoot.
My favorite band. Please check the songs by them: Drink, Keelhauled, Fannybaws and Mexico
Funny and epic perhaps God is just a bubble in our beer.
Alestorm is a fun band, although i do prefer the musical arrangement of the first few albums a little more then some of the newer sound
Oh, come on, Melisa! How could you become MORE scottish???
Red hair, freckles and bagpipes? For real, if you become more scottish, we need english subtitles! 🤣
There will never be English subtitles on my video if I can help it! NEVER!!!! 🏴💪😂
Ye need to hear Fannybaws
If you like pirate metal, listen to Pirate Queen. They're pretty decent
⚓🙏 please by Alestorm
A great reaction, but you should've done Fucked With An Anchor!
You haven't lived until you've seen them perform this live with Captain Yarrface dressed as Britney Spears while the lass who won the meat raffle sits on stage being pumped full of booze.
That whole comment was pure white hot mania! 😂
@@SoulSingerDiscovers I forgot to mention that the festival was held at a brewery called Pirate Life. I know it's all too insane to believe so you can fact check it! Froth and Fury 2022 in Adelaide.
Although I do not care much for Alestorm's latest two albums, there is no doubt they have a fix spot on my party playlists. Good fun should never be locked out of the metal scene. Just look at Steel Panther, and lately Nanowar of Steel. Ah, and also if you want it darker I recommend Belzebubs "Cathedral of Mourning" (fantastic comic/animation awaits thee).
Thanks my dude! I’ll check them out. I’m glad you feel that way because I love having that little bit of humour in all genres 😊
If you really want metal and pirates you have to listen to you oadres of that genre Running Wild
So not a Scottish band as such but a band that you might not be familiar with that a lot of their songs are based on Scottish history is Grave Digger. This is one of my favourite versions of the song Rebellion because it has my all time favourite singer Hansi Kursch of Blind Guardian fame but his band demons and wizards also has one of my absolute favourite songs Fiddler on the Green. Grave Digger are underrated and deserve more exposure. So let me expose you to them.
ruclips.net/video/PbzSWcRM9u0/видео.html
Great reaction!
If you like animation that much, a good next selection could be from Deathklok, the Batmetal trilogy:
1. Batmetal
2. Batmetal Returns
3. Batmetal Forever
(in that order)
You'll have a great time ;)
Thank you Cedric, this sounds amazing 😊
You like pirate metal? You like animation? You like hard partying? Then you NEED the antidote to this very song, _SOBER_ by Nanowar of Steel! Sorry, not Scottish (actually Italian), but three out of four ain't bad. (Warning: some bleeping may be required.) And then you can watch _Valhallelujah..._
Link in separate post because they sometimes get deleted: ruclips.net/video/yXYD6PlQD2s/видео.html
Being a Scottish musician myself if say f’d by an anchor or Drink! Are better songs, but this is alright 😄
Your name is fantastic 😊
Thanks Melisa! Haggis Wolf was already taken 😆
Right, now here's a fun story. The singer (Christopher Bowes) is my ex boyfriend (2010-2013). AMA
Wwwwwwhhhhaaatt!!!!! 😆 your ex-boyfriend is a pirate! I guess that’s better than being an arsehole 😆
Please throw old Alestorm fans a bone a do a song form the first 4 records back when they were a least semi serious. Such a huge fan of black sails and back through time. I just don’t get this new stuff
Man, I've seen them at festivals plenty of times and I've always thought of them as a gimmick band. The only two bands that I cab think of that pull of the comedy with metal are Strapping young Lad and Gwar.
They are live fucking awesome. If you wanna see some more fun videos then whatch Mexiko because that video is a cool arcadegame style when they wash a donkey.
I’ll check it out 😊💪
Third comment in a row but fuck it. There has been arguments amongst the metal community since the first bands started to stray away from the classic and go in the direction of sublime and the ridiculous. One of the most maligned bands that splits the crowd when it comes to metal heads is Manowar. They don't write the comedy lyrics but what they sing about is often viewed as ridiculous or kitsch but essentially birthed the Scandinavian metal genre (some call it Viking metal.) From those kinds of roots you saw the advent of bands like Dream Evil who went hard into the fantasy metal. You get these shifts and trends in the metal world. The boomer metal crowd always seem to malign anything that isn't classic but there is a fairly substantial niche with bands like psychostick and genre straddling bands like electric callboy. You've got that absurdity that is Dethklok which is extreme comedy metal and they had their own whole cartoon with some of the most ridiculous metal and the most ridiculous animation. In one episode they did a song that was coffee jingle and people were like getting brutally killed as they are singing the song and the song is ridiculous, the antics are ridiculous but it's such incredible musicianship that Dethklok, even as something of a parody shreds with the best of them. You also have Powerwolf who sing about religious werewolf soldiers and have religious themed songs such as "resurrection by erection" and "coleus sanctus" amongst others. Again the lyrics are absurd but the arrangement and the vocal delivery is utterly sublime. Powerwolf demonstrate how to do that really well and still be taken seriously in the metal community.
I don't think it would be fair to say writing comedy lyrics is harder than say a ballad or something but to write good comedy lyrics delivered with superb musicianship is a different skill set and not really comparable. Take psychostick and NSFW, the whole song is literally a dude singing the word fuck but it's the way they develop the musicianship behind it. You have Austrian death machine which is essentially an Arnold Schwarzenegger themed parody/tribute metal band. You have alestorm and I think it is the way they deliver the lyrics that makes them so good. Any other band singing songs like that would probably not hit the same way.
Alestorm are amazing and just as good live, but this was not a great representation. You need to checkout the following songs,
Drink,
Alestorm (the clip has midgets😊),
F#cked with an Anchor (this is a must),
Mexico
And yes, I turn 50 in a few months and loves me some animation, 🤘
Wouldv won eurovision
Bad News......Ade Edmondson and Rik Mayall in a spoof metal band. Possibly better than the mighty Tap.
You had me at Rik Mayall 😊❤️
Humor in metal, naaah. OK, maybe a bit. Maybe
Steel Panther.
"Death to all but(t) metal" (full length video), "Community Property" or "Glory Hole" are as pathetic and hilarious as a glam metal parody can get.
These guys are hilariously funny and so real at the same time, that Mötley Crue obviously don't like them, because they are like Freudian mirror to them. Steel Panther is a therapeutical treatment for frustrated metal musicians that need more sex and fun in their lifes.
(A bit like if Twisted Sister and Spinal Tap had a baby and fed it with cocaine. )
As always Martin, you find a way of explaining something to me that makes it super interesting. I’m definitely gonna react to some more comedy metal bands, but you had me at Spinal Tap frankly. I’ve seen that film about 40 times and I still think it is one of the funniest films Ever. Hope you’re keeping well my dude. Currently trying to snatch a little pockets of time to read some of your writing. Looking forward to being able to tell you about what I think about your brain baby 😊
@@SoulSingerDiscovers Oh, that's great. Yeah, time is always rare, take your time. I'm OK, just a little bit less active the last weeks, learning guitar, and to make it not too easy, 7-string, fanned frets, LOL. A musician's life without having seen Spinal Tap is possible, but pointless. 🙂 Great, that we have so much in common, in terms of views and opinions. I wish you a great weekend!
It's good but you really wanted to start with Fannybaws. Fannybaws I tell you. Fannybaws FA - NE - BAWS
Outstanding!! 😂
