Death in the shape of a panzer battalion... How is this not one of the bands that get really famous and then people stop liking them simply cause they're famous but they're really awesome? Cause they're good enough to be like that.
On a sidenote its nice to find someone who is more aware and informed about those particular events we talk about then the general amount of people who simply know what the news tell them :). At least someone to talk with you know :).
Holy shit :D I never thought of putting this song together with Armored Core! Great experiment, worked out perfectly! Awesome song, awesome band and awesome game series. Those who haven't played it, check it out.
That's total beastliness, man. You did an awesome job on this vid. And to all morons arguing about WWII, Russians never allied with Germany, they had a peace pact to not attack each other. However, Hitler broke it and invaded Russia, which prompted them to join the allies against the Axis powers.
Exactly! The germans problem however was, while they built 300 tigers, the Allies constructed 50 000 shermans, and that left the germans too thin to successfully mount a defence. They also had the russians brilliant t-34 rolling in from the east, which though it couldn't match the tiger, turned every single panzer into scrap.
The Song is about the American Armoured Units in the beginning of the current war, which is why they talk about being back, Panzer is the common German/Germanic(Sweden and countrys similar) word for Tank.
@Ricamros Well hello there, good fellow. That is the exact reason that I removed the AMV part from the name. However, I apparently forgot to remove it from the video description and so I apologize if this were to your annoyance in any way. I shall be removing it soon when I find the time.
@MrWolfpackleader Yes, Armored Core 4 and it's sequel Armored Core For Answer are for Xbox 360 and PS3. I reccommend getting for answer though. It has more parts and is (sorta) easier to play.
It's not only AC3 and 4. There are scenes from Armored Core 2 , and the AC firing the laser cannon is from "AC The Last Raven", but they are still awesome! Currently playing 3, and probably addicted to it :P with Silent Line next
On a last note on this I'd also like to point that certain "misbehaviour" on the "winning side" always happens in every war whether World War or just a normal nation vs nation War.
Let me tell you then. A pact doesn't have to mean a damn alliance. It simply implies a treaty, or an agreement. Sure, they divided up Poland and Europe, but that doesn't mean they were allies. The Pact was made so that the Nazis and the Soviets wouldn't kill each other and interfere in each others' plans. It was called the Treaty of Non-Aggression for a reason.
He was even awarded for this with the "Iron Cross" from the "Oberkommando" of the Reichswehr which belonged to Hitler for destroying over hundreds of so called "enemy tanks" in his times!
@JandTtime Indeed it does! However, what I wanted to do here was to stray from the obvious path of using actual panzers and instead go with something that shared the same attributes but that interested me more ;).
Napalm in the WWII as far as I know did not existed the way it did in Vietnam but of course people used flamethrowers and the like there but well its a difference whether you attack a few soldiers with a flamethrower or fly a napalm strike over an entire village burning EVERYTHING within it to dust whether civilians, vietcongs or whatever ... .
By the way thats what I meant with also the CIA as the agencies of the US already knew beforehand that there were no WMD's or chemical weaponry of Mass-destruction located in the Iraq and that it was just a reason for the US Army to march into the country and not only "liberate the people of Iraq" from Saddams dictatorship which after all it was (though ironically some people of the Iraq in those times had no problem with this dictatorship as long as some leaked informations go ;) ).
U.S had been in war for 3 years before the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombs. The U.S. Army led the invasion of Normandy. The U.S. Army was the decisive factor when the Alliance finally won the war. To say that they just got lucky only shows how little you know about WW2
By the way guys in the old Sabaton Panzer Battalion the band themselves that this song is solely made for american tankers and their tanks, face it period!
IoI dude this song from Sabaton is for the Gulf War written for the American tankers and NOT for nazi-germany nor their tanks! They took just the word Panzer because it fits better with the rhytm of the song and I hope you know that Sabaton is swedish so there you go! So for the last time this song is dedicated to American Tankers!
You shouldn't judge every patriot and nationalist because of what happened in the WWII. I'm a partiot but I would never wanna attack any country, but I'm ready to fight for my Fatherland if necessary. I don't need to be blood thirsty and some kind of militarist to love my country and to be proud of it. Peace.
Its simply the fact that undermines and obviously shows how bad real actual wars can be let alone the bigger brother of those like the 2 WWs! It is true that the civilians are nearly always caught between the lines and have to suffer but the like I said the US never wanted to have civilian causaulties at least from the civilian population that does not follow the regime and hence should be as protected as possible from the war that raged in their country.
Quite a difference ay?! Guys the Nazi period was one of the last and most worst times and no words can make this shine in a better light, period! Trust me I know it I have read the right books from a mate!
If there was a PS2 emulator I could get my hands on, the game I'll play will be Armored Core (the Ps2 games). Damn I didn't know Mecha could move like that XD
@Tanekh ha, no problem. I guess on teh internets everyone else is a human too(okay, maybe not but I suppose you are so small mistakes can be forgiven).
@Kamakize789 What about Apaches and Chinnoks? The American military takes names and learns lessons from their enemies. Paratroopers in America used to say "Geronimo" as they jumped, because it was a way to pay respect to the great native american warrior Geronimo, who jumped of a cliff rather than surrendering and being taken prisoner. America knows the german tank warfare and blitzkreig they fought against it and now they use it as parts of their strategy. No insult just information
Therefore I'd say Elldallan that the US never had to display any power or might of their military in any theatre because every san and intelligent person knows that Americas military budget already displays this power. Apart from this you are right and I agree :).
Zajebiste :D jak zwykle i mam pytanie czy daliscie pozwolenie na danie waszej muzyki CrusadeNR bo jak tak to ide zgołosic sie do YTTEam o tym ze zaszła pomyłka ( bo skasowali jego filmiki Sabaton- 40 do 1 ) powó prawdopodobnie brak praw autorskich
I can see the general idea of the ACs being the panzer division of death, but i agree w/ you. some scenes would be better if they matched the lyric and timing more. regardless great song
There's one problem though, most patriots/nationalists don't believe in peace. There is no glory in peace. There's a certain self-importance that most of them practice, and this dehumanizes others in their eyes. If all patriots/nationalists were peaceful, I'd be one too, but sadly most aren't. Peace, indeed.
Its really the truth! The US of A spends around ~700 billion dollars per anno for its entire military which is nearly 50% of the entire worlds military budget and NO other country in the world can keep up with this and thats why the US has such a gigantic high-tech military which does not come for cheap ;).
EXACTLY!!! I hate it when people blaim the japanese living today for Pearl Harbor and shit like that! "You bombed Pearl Harbor, you jerks!" "Dude, I wasn't even alive then. Don't blame me for what my great-grandfather did."
Oh, I have a question: WHY THE HELL ARE WE ARGUING ABOUT THIS?! It's a damn song! It sounds fucking beast! We shouldn't be arguing over some crap like history. Save that for debate class or American History!
98RamMagnum you are right that panzer is the german word for tank but you are wrong that it's the same for "Sweden and countrys similar". The swedish equivalent is Stridsvagn, in norwegian is Stridsvogn, and in danish is kampvogn. In english it's usually tank and what the dutch and the icelanders calls it I have no idea but those are the major languages derived from germanic.
So, rather than figure out why the music video isn't about tanks, I'm trying to figure out why anybody cares. It's a good song, it's a good game. How does this not make sense to anybody else? Naturally the infamously powerful Panzer would be associated in a person's mind with the incredibly destructive Armoured Core NEXT. Btw, is that all you playing the games?
Everyone who still thinks this way I would recommend to build a timemachine travel back to those times and then go straight up to Michael Wittmanns Tank ... lets see whether he will start a "Smalltalk" or INSTANTLY kill you as you are not someone who belongs to the Nazis nor that you wear their uniforms or like Professor Henry Jones from Indiana Jones part 3 once said the uniforms of the "armies of darkness" - well he obviously did not say it this way ^^ but everyone knows what I am up to ;).
that was the opinion of " stauffenberg" too but he was killed after trying to kill hitler i'm german excuse my english if it is not good nice greets at all
Sweden has a lot of great power metal artist, you should check out Timeless Miracle. Sweden is like Norway when it comes to music, Sweden got power metal an stuff, Norway got Black metal.
@Asgard0822 Then allow me to englighten you! You see, instead of doing the obvious (that is, showing the audience a bunch of tanks going about their business) I choose to use something that shares many of the attributes with the obvious choice (heavily armored, loads of fire power, etc.). Thus catering the video to fit my interests more. I am sorry that it did not cater to yours, however.
Well on this one I would not totally agree and do not think that I am pro American but as far as I as European think, it was never needed for America to display its military power towards the rest of the World because the amount that the congress every year signs in for military budget for the US Army, Navy and Air Force is enough to help nearly the entire third world country to have at least something to eat ;).
Ya can't help but wonder what our military would be like if we actually had mech's like those in this video . For real though what would you think if you saw one on the new's in Iraq or Afganastan ? Beam rifle, Plasma sword, and an auto cannon !
i meant most modern wars, patriotism and nationalism dont start the wars, but they're the reason people fight them. pride is sickening - look at world war 2, why did the german soldiers fight for such a monster? nationalism, patriotism, and of course pride. why do soldiers in the U.S. fight in an obviously stupid war? patriotism, nationalism, and of course pride. i would fight to defend human lives, but i would never fight to defend a government.
Well Elldallan it just sounded as if you would compare the WWII with the actual events that happened in the Iraq alongside the imprisionation of several so called "terroristic leaders" in Guantanamo Bay, so I thought to clarify that its nowhere near this magnitude ;). You know World Wars are called for a reason WORLD Wars ^^.
Video is good, song is good. Just one question... how is this AMV? this ain't anime buddy, would be more correct to say GMV(Game Music Video). Just saying.
More atrocities like The Mukaradeeb Wedding party massacre, the Haditha killings, the Mahmudiyah killings, the Hamdania incident. the Blackwater Baghdad shootings, the actions of troops from the 101st Airborne on May 9th 2006, The actions of brittish soldiers on a video that leaked out in february 2006. It is impossible to win a war were you are fighting a guerilla of the local people except to undermine the people's support of the guerilla and the coalition forces are doing just the opposite.
Well Napalm is a completely different think onigojira as far as I know ;). You know the things that happened during 'Nam was also not right and very gruesome as those "coordinated Napalm strikes" which were meant to root out "Charlies" or more former known "Vietcong" encampments and fortifications unfortunately also hit the civilians and their small villages due to misinformations from the "other side" etc. ;).
IoI no sorry Onigojira but my knowledge is far from anything wiki ;). Ever heard something about Time Life's "The Century of Warfare" ... its a quite good documentary with real life footage about the WWII and apart from that I got from my mate some very good books which are very detailed about the WWII. By the way how can you even make a judgement about me when you do not even read my comments dude ;). I am certainly not missing then just telling what I get when I READ YOUR statements ;).
my god this was my first time hearing sabaton way back when i was still in school glad it is still on youtube
Death in the shape of a panzer battalion...
How is this not one of the bands that get really famous and then people stop liking them simply cause they're famous but they're really awesome?
Cause they're good enough to be like that.
On a sidenote its nice to find someone who is more aware and informed about those particular events we talk about then the general amount of people who simply know what the news tell them :).
At least someone to talk with you know :).
Holy shit :D I never thought of putting this song together with Armored Core! Great experiment, worked out perfectly! Awesome song, awesome band and awesome game series. Those who haven't played it, check it out.
That's total beastliness, man. You did an awesome job on this vid.
And to all morons arguing about WWII, Russians never allied with Germany, they had a peace pact to not attack each other. However, Hitler broke it and invaded Russia, which prompted them to join the allies against the Axis powers.
This is one of the best songs with Sabaton. And Sabaton is one of the best bands ever.
Really good video. :D
Sabaton
I'll never forget the first time I heard this song and the look on my dad's face when I stood up at the computer and started headbanging.
Exactly!
The germans problem however was, while they built 300 tigers, the Allies constructed 50 000 shermans, and that left the germans too thin to successfully mount a defence. They also had the russians brilliant t-34 rolling in from the east, which though it couldn't match the tiger, turned every single panzer into scrap.
The Song is about the American Armoured Units in the beginning of the current war, which is why they talk about being back, Panzer is the common German/Germanic(Sweden and countrys similar) word for Tank.
Great music, great video omg
Armored Core 4 FTW

This is the music im running to, you just feel like you are driven by speed =)
this some neat stuff right there
Armored Core zu diesem Lied?
Geil :)
Wie passend xD
@MrWolfpackleader Yes, Armored Core 4 and it's sequel Armored Core For Answer are for Xbox 360 and PS3. I reccommend getting for answer though. It has more parts and is (sorta) easier to play.
...That's an adorable comment. Of course I'll tell you, the game in this video is Armored Core 4 and some parts are from Armored Core 3. There ya go!
It's not only AC3 and 4. There are scenes from Armored Core 2 , and the AC firing the laser cannon is from "AC The Last Raven", but they are still awesome! Currently playing 3, and probably addicted to it :P with Silent Line next
its so good i watched it twice.
On a last note on this I'd also like to point that certain "misbehaviour" on the "winning side" always happens in every war whether World War or just a normal nation vs nation War.
wow great job on this video man, great tune and vid compilation =D
Woah another awesome amv! ^^! Keep making more ^^ :3
Wow man the ONLY AMV i like well done
Sabaton is the true Life\m/

COOL, ROCK ON!
Infantry is Mass and Immobility
Calvary is Speed and Shock
ok, sorry, I think the song is great and that the video is verry well made, i just love seing those robots destroy!
By the way thats what I meant with also the CIA as the agencies of the US already knew beforehand that there were no WMD's or chemical weaponry of Mass-destruction located in the Iraq and that it was just a reason for the US Army to march into the country and not only "liberate the people of Iraq" from Saddams dictatorship which after all it was (though ironically some people of the Iraq in those times had no problem with this dictatorship as long as some leaked informations go ;) ).

To say that they just got lucky only shows how little you know about WW2
God now i really wanna play that game!
we need a 2010 version of this game, with good multi-player!
By the way guys in the old Sabaton Panzer Battalion the band themselves that this song is solely made for american tankers and their tanks, face it period!
Armored Core Rulez!
i love this Game :D
IoI dude this song from Sabaton is for the Gulf War written for the American tankers and NOT for nazi-germany nor their tanks! They took just the word Panzer because it fits better with the rhytm of the song and I hope you know that Sabaton is swedish so there you go!

@Diablotion He's just saluting himself from Germany :)

aaa, fan ;D
Hail Sabaton from Germany!
Oh, I have a question: WHY THE HELL ARE WE ARGUING ABOUT THIS?!
It's a damn song! It sounds fucking beast! We shouldn't be arguing over some crap like history. Save that for debate class or American History!
I have to get this badass game. It looks so fricken epic!!!
\P

Byłem w wojskach pancernych aż łza się w oczach kręci gdy się słyszy tekst tego utworu. Liczy się kontekst chociaż nie popieram wojny w Iraku

"Cause of most wars" are people. Ideologies like patriotism and nationalism don´t kill people. People kill people.
posting so the song doesnt get deleted, after about a week or 2 of no comments the videos get taken off :P
SABATON FOREVER:):)
Everyone who still thinks this way I would recommend to build a timemachine travel back to those times and then go straight up to Michael Wittmanns Tank ... lets see whether he will start a "Smalltalk" or INSTANTLY kill you as you are not someone who belongs to the Nazis nor that you wear their uniforms or like Professor Henry Jones from Indiana Jones part 3 once said the uniforms of the "armies of darkness" - well he obviously did not say it this way ^^ but everyone knows what I am up to ;).
No I think it's more like a war between humans and both sides got robots that thay fight with :) But that's just what I think. Is that right? :D
@Tanekh Well spoken.
that was the opinion of " stauffenberg" too
but he was killed after trying to kill hitler
i'm german excuse my english if it is not good
nice greets at all
Sweden has a lot of great power metal artist, you should check out Timeless Miracle. Sweden is like Norway when it comes to music, Sweden got power metal an stuff, Norway got Black metal.
Actually, I don't see how these conflict with WW2...
Where as Napalm, which is now a war crime to use if I recall, does fit with WW2.
Yep thats right Knothole. Nothing to add :).

Sabaton Rules...Sweden
try to look and hear 40 to 1 and you will see how much was german panzers woarth.
Well on this one I would not totally agree and do not think that I am pro American but as far as I as European think, it was never needed for America to display its military power towards the rest of the World because the amount that the congress every year signs in for military budget for the US Army, Navy and Air Force is enough to help nearly the entire third world country to have at least something to eat ;).
This is Sabaton... how can you deface them with comments about morality in WWII? Just listen to the music, watch the video and enjoy.
Ya can't help but wonder what our military would be like if we actually had mech's like those in this video .
For real though what would you think if you saw one on the new's in Iraq or Afganastan ?
Beam rifle, Plasma sword, and an auto cannon !
You know what, next time i meet Sabaton i'll just ask them =p xD
i meant most modern wars, patriotism and nationalism dont start the wars, but they're the reason people fight them.
pride is sickening - look at world war 2, why did the german soldiers fight for such a monster? nationalism, patriotism, and of course pride.

i would fight to defend human lives, but i would never fight to defend a government.
@Budalanakub It's called pcsx2. But I've already downloaded 3, and all don't work.

It is impossible to win a war were you are fighting a guerilla of the local people except to undermine the people's support of the guerilla and the coalition forces are doing just the opposite.
It could do that, but for instance: "This time were here, to finish our job, started a decade ago" does not match the war in sahara during ww2.
Well Napalm is a completely different think onigojira as far as I know ;).
You know the things that happened during 'Nam was also not right and very gruesome as those "coordinated Napalm strikes" which were meant to root out "Charlies" or more former known "Vietcong" encampments and fortifications unfortunately also hit the civilians and their small villages due to misinformations from the "other side" etc. ;).
... or tank however you like to call armour ;).
I mean the old Sabaton Panzer Battalion forums.
hi can you say me the name of this game? it looks nice and i want play it ^^
i hear that
looks like echwarrior....
humans in robot suits shooting eachother:P
Hmm. Somebody should put this song on a Dalek video n_n
AMV is NOT Animated music video. AMV(Anime Music Video) is a subgenre of "Animated music videos" and thereby it can't be called the same.
IoI no sorry Onigojira but my knowledge is far from anything wiki ;). Ever heard something about Time Life's "The Century of Warfare" ... its a quite good documentary with real life footage about the WWII and apart from that I got from my mate some very good books which are very detailed about the WWII.
