It's not really a moshpit, more like routines and chorus scenes

Good, make them angy
He is the father of Bardcore, possibly the best micro-genre to ever exist.
Today I learned that "Folk" isn't a genre.
@@CoralCopperHead it is a genre tho lol, folk music and bardcore are two separate things
bardcore is just music rewritten to sound like it's from the medieval era
What do you mean? Every other genre is a sub-genre of bards. He's going back to the source.
@@Drak976 Bardcore is different from bard.
didnt think the recorder would ever give me chills 🥶
You can really hear the Armenian roots of their music when played on ancient instruments like this. It sounds just as natural in this style as it does when played in it's original way. I could listen to this all day.
Grossly underrated comment. I too was like, "oh shit, this is just an Armenian folk dance!" The parts that are "metal" breakdowns in the original are so analogous to the rhythms of eastern folk when played in bardcore.
Not actually Eastern, Armenia like Middle Earth😊
❤
You’re absolutely right!
@@methyumontgomerya lot of people don't understand what is east, one day i read someone saying that Latin America was eastern 💀
The local lord isn't gonna approve of you eating the seeds from the harvest.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
'tis the will of the lord that his faithful serfs dine on those seeds in their pastime.
It is "seems" no "seeds", right? Or not?
@@Hugo_002 its seeds
Armenians like to eat sunflower seeds as a pastime. you can see a great big pile of them in the official video.

And syphilis.
I believe the wordage you’re looking for is “this lad wins all the maidens at the fair of Renaissance “
This is WAYYYY tooo good man! I can't believe this has existed for 5 years and I'm just hearing it for the first time. Outstanding!

If you can’t believe this, we’ll I have some exciting news for you. Outside of the internet, past the front door of your house, and even farther than the street, town, and general area in which you reside, there is an entire world which has existed for far longer. Go exploring. There you will discover things you know nothing about!
6 years now - mad
Hey RUclips, why did you wait 6 years to recommend this video?
Eating seeds as a pastime activity since 700 AD
Edit: Changed 1500 to 700 because you guys have been pestering me about how I had the year wrong. Fine, here you go.
It's funny because it's been true since 100000 BC.

@@GiulioImparato Yeah, pipas.
It's funny cause medieval times were already over in 1500

@@a.fuentes1891 great comment, sir!
Get these great bards to play for our medieval battles

😂😂😂😂😂😂
This SOAD song combined perfectly with medieval music, magnificent!
Considering how much influence SOAD takes from Armenian folk music it doesn't surprise me how natural this sounds as a medieval ballad.
Haven't heard much American folk that sounded like this, the use of Persian and Arabic scales. Maybe you can enlighten me with some that I haven't heard.
@@sarimahmedguitars just to be clear, I said Armenian, from Armenia. A country in the Caucasus mountains between Russia and the middle east, Serj Tankian and several other band members are from Armenia themselves giving them the Armenian folk influence.

My cousin decided to do a medieval style dance for the first dance at his wedding. At some point I leaned over to my brother and asked, "Is that System of a down?"

And Daron would be thoroughly disgusted. Lol!
Serj is the nicest guy ever. Met him at some park in Malibu.
Wonder if we could keep tagging them to this
Thats a cool arrangement. Wasnt expecting flute to complement the song this good

Metal? Nope.
Slacktivist garbage.
Neat adaptation though.
/The/ metal head? Singular?
When I was a boy, metal heads were the /only/ people playing D&D.
The rap kids were all too busy riding their skating-planks.
i like how he doesnt just copy it on medieval instruments but gives it a real medieval vibe
Right, nice and fluid, this would be fantastic at a renaissance festival
Yes, sadly many other medieval-style covers play the exact same notes as the original, just on different instruments. Or sometimes not even instruments, just midi.
@@praevasc4299 the same with metal covers, they just add some shitty growl and drop c guitar, noisy a/f, the bass is unexistent and the drum is awfully mixed, specially in the videogames/series covers
@@diegosotomiranda4107 Well, just in any genre, there are some of good quality, and lots with bad quality.
He'd have to remove all the tri-tones if he wanted it to be medieval, unfortunately. That's the devil's progression.

This would be great to play as background music while characters pass through a tavern in DnD 👍

Imagine, a medieval courtyard, a few bards slowly tune their instruments and start to play. Drawing a crowd of common folk, peasants, and royalty all coming to partake in this first time heard magic. Thank you for this, it's truly amazing.

Eating seeds because it's the only food source available.

Great comment, originality is essential for genuine humour.
We see this less and less the longer we are without the thumbs down feature.
😂😂
It's all fun and games until the medieval moshpit breaks out
Dudes swingin axes and swords and shit, literally.
Me: And thus the Goths were born...
Historian: NO, STOP.
Me: too late it sounds too righteous
I think those were called “Crusades”
That sounds terrifying
Imagine being on a viking longboat sailing into battle with this playing but loads more massive thumping war drums
That would have been an absolute banger back in the medieval days
This might be my favorite thing ever
"What kind of music you listen to?"
"You wouldn't get it"

Underrated
@@skolishard honestly that's not what my life experience has taught me, it's taught my endlessly that if you do not fit the "norm" in every conceivable way, then you're "out there" and you're one to be avoided and ostracized. this is why I avoid people altogether, all they do is put down, judge unfairly, and bully their way socially to be at the top and center of their clique.

If anyone ever goes back in time, play this for the people and see what comes of it.
Dont do it in the Spanish inquisition your devilish playing skills will have thee fucked
Leo Doran Have thee fucked 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Literally had this thought and came to the comments to see if anyone else said the same.
Wasn’t disappointed.
I was literally just thinking that
Yes!
This is actually the sound they were going for only electrified and distorted. They were influenced heavily by Armenian folk music which to this day still makes use of many instruments which have been around since medieval times.
i was looking for a comment like this, perfect!
Insightful takes, makes sense. They are such a great band
Naild it
You hit the nail on the head, listening to this, I thought you can really feel the Armenian side of it.. then thought it was probably made heavier for the love of metal.
THIS IS AMAZING. I can't stop giggling agter hearing this. Dude you've earned my utmost respect with this video.
This version is just so cool. I come back to listening to it again and again.

Thank you for making this absolutely beautiful cover! It sounds so natural and perfect. The arrangement is so well though out. Talent and dedication right there. Bravo 👏👏👏👏👏
The sound of the instruments is great but there's definitely a positive impact by taking the lyrics out.
the moment you pulled out the flute, and you pefectly mimicked the singing voice, i was extremely impressed. i have heard toxicity a million times, and from my opinion, this is a good cover.
If you had listened to Toxicity 1,000,000 times, you've spent 7.098 years of your life just listening to Toxicity, assuming no buffering or ads happened to increase that length

Sir Lord Serj Tankian
A man poured his soul into this. His SOUL. His far-reaching talents. His emotions. His interests. His passions. The pleasures of his life. The tears of his tragedy. He has a room specifically for this. The room has equipment. I dont doubt he has an assistant. He has a youtube channel with many many followers. Ill bet its a fun side job apart from studying music throughout history. This is a sophisticated, cultured, talented man. And all this just to be in a background tab while i play Crusader Kings 3.

Best video suggestion so far this week from RUclips! Awesome job
My god, someone doing a SOAD cover and it's not Chop Suey.
Personally I listen to toxicity more. I dont know if that makes it the better song
Not impressive at all, toxicity is awesome, but would've been if he'd played any other song than this, chop, byob or lonely.
Anyway, the cover was incredible. I loved it.
@@ericozzato I'm merely pointing out that almost every time anyone covers SOAD they do Chop Suey.
@@kryten88 agreed
Seriously like don't get me wrong I like chop suey but it really doesn't translate to other genres well IMO, certainly not as well as other SOAD songs
for everyone wondering why this is recommended to them: the genre bardcore is getting popular these days
