"Sir there is a small boat nearby with some guys playing some really epic music, what should we do?" "Leave them be, they are doing God's work out here"
Pfft, you say "Swedish metal" as though there are any other varieties. I'm kidding. Part Swede here (American), and I can tell you that the nordic countries in general have outstanding metal in general. Including Denmark (go figure). Switzerland does well, and so does Russia. Actually, the only metal I've ever heard that I didn't like (aside from Nu-metal) is in Spanish. I have yet to find a Spanish metal band that doesn't sound like straight up Mariachi metal. If you can recommend one, I'd love to give it a try. BTW, I'm not really conversational in Spanish or Swedish, but I can effectively communicate in either if needed. I may occasionally need a dictionary to supply me with a word I don't know, but I can understand about 80% of news articles I read in either language.
Fun Fact: In 1902 Kaiser Wilhelm introduced a tax on sparkling wine in Germany to finance the Kriegsmarine. Not so fun Fact: Today that tax is still in place and every time we buy sparkling we pay 1,01€ extra to rebuild the Kriegsmarine.
Also at 3:48 'they are bound by iron and blood' whereas Blood And Iron is the name of speech given by actual Otto Von Bismarck in 1862 about the need for unification of germany
Another awesome touch is referring to the Bismark as He instead of she because when Hitler toured it under construction he declared that it was a he because it was so powerful (which by Mariner tradition doomed the ship)
Fun Fact: There was a cat on this ship named Oskar I think, who survived, got transferred to a british ship, that ship got sunk, and then transferred to a RN Aircraft Carrier and that got sunk, and he survived again, earning him the nickname "Unsinkable Sam"
Agreed, can say, i enjoy this whilst playing some history games (ex. Hearts of Iron 4), and i can say it boosted my enjoyment by quite a lot. Thank you, and keep making history metal!
To be fair, heavy metal had just been invented around the time you were a teen, back the early forms was called "hard acid rock" and apparently it was really popular in certain units that fought in the Vietnam War. Yeah I saw quite a few documentaries on the early days of heavy metal.
I am 54 and I live in Indonesia. This video clip is one of the best that I have ever seen. I love history of warfare since childhood. The hunt for the Bismarck and the battle of the Denmark Strait is one of the most fascinating yet sad story. One thing that is absent in this clip the HMS Hood. The spectacular explosion that sunk HMS Hood will make this clip 100% perfect.

I think it’s important that no matter the side of history a story is on, it should be remembered. It’s tragic that almost 2,000 men died, and it doesn’t matter the side they were on
British Captain: "Are we already at the coast? I can see the Mountains!" Sailor: "Thats no Mountains. Thats a Battleship!" *Sabaton Music Starts playing*
For those who want to know : there was a cat on the boat. He survived when it sinked, and got taken by the british. And then he survided to the doom of two other boats after, and received the nickname of "Sam the unsinkable cat". That right, one of the most famous survivor of the Bismark is a cat who died in UK 14 years after his first steps on a boat. That explains a lot... Germans wanted to get their cat back.
Actually this isn't true, it's just a rumour as the destroyer said to have picked it up was in convoy duty at the time and was about 300 miles to the north west of where the cat was said to be picked up.
Oooh, so thats why germans are sometime nicknamed jerries. Oh wait no Tom is the cat, wait tom and jerry.... Jerry is a mouse and germany has a facination with mause... Ratte, Super panzer the mause.
One thing I found when I read about Bismarck caught my interest and it is in fact a really interesting story! From when Bismarck first set sail, it always had a ship cat onboard, which original name given by the Germans is unknown. The cat was supposedly owned by an unknown crewman, but was seen as Bismarcks ship cat by almost the entire crew. The cat was on the ship during the entire battle of the Denmark Strait and of course also on board when Bismarck sank. It managed to survive the sinking and a few hours later, the cat was found floating on a board and picked up from the water by the British destroyer HMS Cossack. The British sailors named him Oscar. HMS Cossack returned to the Mediterranean sea where it went on escort duties. On 24 October 1941, Cossack was escorting a convoy from Gibraltar to Great Britain when it was hit by a torpedo fired from U-563, after which it was towed towards Gibraltar but eventually sank after a huge explosion. Again, Oscar survived, and was brought to shore at Gibraltar and then tranferred to the Aircraft Carrier HMS Ark Royal. When the captain of HMS Ark Royal saw Oscar, he allegedly said something like: "Is that the cat from the battleship Bismarck ? He is more than welcome onboard the Ark Royal!" At this point the cat got known by the new nickname "Unsinkable Sam", as a reference to the cat's luck after surviving two sinkings. But then, on 14 November 1941 Ark Royal too was torpedoed, this time by U-81 and sank around 30 miles from Gibraltar. Oscar managed to survive once again, and he was picked up and transferred to HMS Lightning and then to the same HMS Legion which had rescued the crew of HMS Cossack. HMS Legion would itself be sunk in 1942, and HMS Lightning in 1943. Oscar now, quite fairly, had gained a certain reputation of being extremely unlucky, and was therefore not allowed on another ship again and instead he was transferred first to the offices of the Governor of Gibraltar and then sent back to the United Kingdom, where he saw out the remainder of the war living in a seaman's home in Belfast called the "Home for Sailors". Oscar died in 1955.
@@UltimaShadow 4k battles here: Bismarck isn't terrible, but she's suffered from powercreep severely. 2 years ago she was great. By now she's decent at best.
Told a friend today I was listening to Sabaton earlier, and they asked why, to which I said this; "Sabaton isn't metal. It's history set to song and verse... with metal."
A hit stuck its direction si Bismarck could only go left in circles. Ships then surrounded it with a ton of ships and after shooting a long time at it, finally sunk it. Try sinking Bismarck otherwise
@Awesome trucker 747 Almost. The crew had planned to as their guns were down. The Brits finally had to make for port and left a couple of cruisers to hit it with torps. Most likely it was that what ended it as it was probably listing enough to push the armor belts below the water.
"They are bound by iron and blood" great reference to Otto von Bismarck´s famous speech from 1862 ( Blood and Iron ). Sabaton knows whats good and since we are here, we know aswell. Great song
Fun fact: when the Bismarck was sunk and the Royal Navy rescued the 115 crew they did they also rescued a black and white cat named Oscar which they renamed to Unsinkable Sam. Sam went on to serve on the HMS Cossack which sank and also the Carrier HMS Ark Royal which ironically was instrumental in sinking the Bismarck. The Ark Royal sank and Sam survived. In total Unsinkable Sam survived the sinking of 3 ships.

Of the HMS Hood's complement of 1,421 crewmen, only 3 survived their engagement with the Bismarck. It took a salvo in the aftward section and one of the shells penetrated a magazine, detonating the rear of the ship and sinking the vessel in around three minutes. War is indeed hell.
And remember that Bismarck and Tirpitz were only the fourth largest battleship classes built: The Yamatos were the largest, followed by the Iowas (which were the second largest, and also the longest and fastest) and then the one-off Vanguard. One thing all of these ships (even the Iowas) have in common is that, aside from maybe Bismarck sinking Hood (which was because of luck in a fight where the odds favoured the British, and could only even happen because the British didn’t bother sending carriers there instead), none of them actually did anything noteworthy or justified their existence due to being put into service in the carrier era. Vanguard had it the worst as she never even participated in WWII due to being completed AFTER the war.
@@bkjeong4302 The Yamato didn't do anything because the US basically sent the entire Pacific fleet after it, and it still almost broke out. Both the American and Japanese admirals made critical tactical errors, but the Americans were able to recover from theirs. Sea of Thunder is a great read about it, from both the American and Japanese perspectives.
@@jbo22fly That’s just for her final battle. She achieved little throughout her entire career (the stuff she did do, Leyte Gulf aside, was making sorties in response to American carrier raids, which was a bad idea as battleships cannot catch fleet carriers unless the carrier is being stupid). The Japanese first didn’t use her because they were saving her for the major surface engagement they wanted, then later because they realized that battle was never going to happen and now they had a pointless battleship on their hands they shouldn’t have built in the first place, and didn’t want to expend fuel on her.
@@ximent1530 Later ships of a given class are almost always larger than the first ship of the same class. If Vanguard ever had a sister ship (perhaps to reuse the turrets from the R-class?) she would likely have been larger than Tirpitz.

Man, 1:45 always gives me chills...imagine being in a small trawler in a mist bank, and then seeing the Bismarck emerging. Plus, the fact that it would be a ghost ship at this point...
That's how a lookout from HMS Suffolk described seeing her for the first time. "This massive beast the likes i've never seen came out of the fog and I was frozen and speechless."
Как сказал капитан Линдеманн: "Я не позволю стрелять по моему кораблю", после чего ответил огнём на пятиминутный обстрел британцев и в итоге был потоплен "Худ", а так же повреждён линкор "Принц Уэльский". Считаю, что если бы британцы не набросились всей сворой на один, повреждённый и лишённый манёвра "Бисмарк", им бы никогда не удалось его победить, не говоря уже о честной дуэли, только подлостью и всей стаей.
@namelastname871 согласно документам и истории, британцы именно что кинули все силы, даже сняли охранение с конвоев типа PQ-17, и что интересно, ловили Бисмарк очень долго, несколько раз теряя его из виду и радаров, не смотря на постоянное патрулирование эсминцами и авиацией. Они не боялись подлодок, иначе бы не стали несколько часов, всем доступным флотом пытаться потопить один Бисмарк, что забавно, в итоге, немцы сами открыли кингстоны и затопили Бисмарк, экспедиция Кемерона к Бисмарку это подтвердила. И да, ты прав, если бы Свордфиш с Арк Рояла не повредил бы удачной торпедой рули, то потопить Бисмарк у них бы не вышло, я предположу, что и засада из всего доступного флота, не помогла, особенно, если бы он дошёл до поля действия береговой авиации немцев. У подлодок действительно был приказ помочь Бисмарку, но пришли они к нему только через несколько дней после сражения, найдя только масляное пятно на поверхности воды.
@jerak02 Or how about , rofl, U-1206. At least U-406 only had weapons failure...1206 though, hahaha. Only true history buffs will know why I'm laughing so hard at that poor submarine, I'll happily explain though for anyone who doesn’t already know.
After this battle, John Tovey wrote in his memoirs: "Bismarck gave the most heroic battle under the most impossible conditions, worthy of the old days of the Imperial German Navy, and he went under water with a flag raised."
So very good, so very, very good. And the video is so accurate as well in how it portrays Bismarck. After killing Hood and chasing off Prince of Wales she was slowed and low at the bow due to battle damage - exactly as shown. Moments in to her last battle a shell from the battleship Rodney hammered in to her superstructure and silenced her forward guns and killed her command crew. Exactly as shown. And when the British cruisers closed for the coup de grace she was already tipping over, and thus the torpedoes hit her deck rather than her sides. As shown. Its a lot of effort to make a video that is both so beautiful and so accurate.
They also showed that the British ships waited around to pick up German sailors. Shame U-Boats were spotted and they had to cut and run. And how the plane to spot the Bismark for the Fleet was an American PBY-1. And then the Swordfish appeared. And then it was over because no matter how kickass you are, you can't fight a Fleet on your own.
@@diooverheaven6561 The person the ship was named after was indeed male, but most ships are regarded as female, and this is true for the ship, Bismarck, aswell
We need battleship Yamato to have a song. she was built to be the mightiest battleship, able to take on multiple US battleships and win. She had the armour, guns and superb optical gunnery which produced some of the most accurate secondary and main battery fire during the battle of Samar.

Sadly she got screwed by command, too afraid to use her and lose her and for all that they lost her anyway by sending her out alone in the end.
37 on trending in my country, now 36, the number still going lower and lower... Me thinking that sabaton was pretty small in the general music world... Me being glad that they just low-key shook the music world
This song was my introduction to Sabaton. When I heard that beginning hit, I thought to myself, “Who are these people, and why did it take me this long to find them? Also, why is that guy killing his knee?”
“Captain, our rangefinder’s been knocked out!” “How come? Was it because of the shockwave of our first salvo?” “Uhhh... no sir, it’s because there’s a civilian fishing ship out there with a bunch of Swedes jamming on it” “... mein gott, it’s worse than we feared”
To show the power of flex tape, I brung the Bismarck from the bottom of the sea and repaired it using only flex tape, then declared war on Great Britain.
Whats amazing about this is that, the captain at the beginning was the only survivor of the Bismarck remembering his service on him. Amazing Sabaton.... Thank You for Keeping Memories Alive! 🤘
The British, still scorned over the loss of the Hood, faked a U boat sighting and only picked up a few survivors. Orders were for a Quote: "Sample". You can look this up.

The reason Bismarck sunk was because the the crew was distracted by the free Sabaton concert
Damn. You got it right.
hahaahahahhaa
A hit stuck its direction si Bismarck could only go left in circles. Ships then surrounded it with a ton of ships and after shooting a long time at it, finally sunk it. Try sinking Bismarck otherwise
Little Ears r/woooosh
@Awesome trucker 747 Almost. The crew had planned to as their guns were down. The Brits finally had to make for port and left a couple of cruisers to hit it with torps. Most likely it was that what ended it as it was probably listing enough to push the armor belts below the water.

Fun fact: when the Bismarck was sunk and the Royal Navy rescued the 115 crew they did they also rescued a black and white cat named Oscar which they renamed to Unsinkable Sam. Sam went on to serve on the HMS Cossack which sank and also the Carrier HMS Ark Royal which ironically was instrumental in sinking the Bismarck. The Ark Royal sank and Sam survived. In total Unsinkable Sam survived the sinking of 3 ships.
Seems like he was a pretty unlucky cat. For the crew I mean.

Only 5% of the Bismarck's crew survived. War is hell.
Of the HMS Hood's complement of 1,421 crewmen, only 3 survived their engagement with the Bismarck. It took a salvo in the aftward section and one of the shells penetrated a magazine, detonating the rear of the ship and sinking the vessel in around three minutes.

Sabaton and I should sit down and discuss a movie.
Bismarck appearing from the mist at 1:45 is a really cool shot, we can see how really big those battleships were. Truly a gigantic steel beast.
And remember that Bismarck and Tirpitz were only the fourth largest battleship classes built: The Yamatos were the largest, followed by the Iowas (which were the second largest, and also the longest and fastest) and then the one-off Vanguard.
One thing all of these ships (even the Iowas) have in common is that, aside from maybe Bismarck sinking Hood (which was because of luck in a fight where the odds favoured the British, and could only even happen because the British didn’t bother sending carriers there instead), none of them actually did anything noteworthy or justified their existence due to being put into service in the carrier era. Vanguard had it the worst as she never even participated in WWII due to being completed AFTER the war.
@@bkjeong4302 The Yamato didn't do anything because the US basically sent the entire Pacific fleet after it, and it still almost broke out.
Both the American and Japanese admirals made critical tactical errors, but the Americans were able to recover from theirs.
Sea of Thunder is a great read about it, from both the American and Japanese perspectives.
@@jbo22fly
That’s just for her final battle. She achieved little throughout her entire career (the stuff she did do, Leyte Gulf aside, was making sorties in response to American carrier raids, which was a bad idea as battleships cannot catch fleet carriers unless the carrier is being stupid). The Japanese first didn’t use her because they were saving her for the major surface engagement they wanted, then later because they realized that battle was never going to happen and now they had a pointless battleship on their hands they shouldn’t have built in the first place, and didn’t want to expend fuel on her.
Germans were know how to build war machines😉👍
@@ximent1530
Later ships of a given class are almost always larger than the first ship of the same class. If Vanguard ever had a sister ship (perhaps to reuse the turrets from the R-class?) she would likely have been larger than Tirpitz.

Как сказал капитан Линдеманн: "Я не позволю стрелять по моему кораблю", после чего ответил огнём на пятиминутный обстрел британцев и в итоге был потоплен "Худ", а так же повреждён линкор "Принц Уэльский".
Считаю, что если бы британцы не набросились всей сворой на один, повреждённый и лишённый манёвра "Бисмарк", им бы никогда не удалось его победить, не говоря уже о честной дуэли, только подлостью и всей стаей.
@namelastname871 согласно документам и истории, британцы именно что кинули все силы, даже сняли охранение с конвоев типа PQ-17, и что интересно, ловили Бисмарк очень долго, несколько раз теряя его из виду и радаров, не смотря на постоянное патрулирование эсминцами и авиацией. Они не боялись подлодок, иначе бы не стали несколько часов, всем доступным флотом пытаться потопить один Бисмарк, что забавно, в итоге, немцы сами открыли кингстоны и затопили Бисмарк, экспедиция Кемерона к Бисмарку это подтвердила.
И да, ты прав, если бы Свордфиш с Арк Рояла не повредил бы удачной торпедой рули, то потопить Бисмарк у них бы не вышло, я предположу, что и засада из всего доступного флота, не помогла, особенно, если бы он дошёл до поля действия береговой авиации немцев.
У подлодок действительно был приказ помочь Бисмарку, но пришли они к нему только через несколько дней после сражения, найдя только масляное пятно на поверхности воды.

So very good, so very, very good.
And the video is so accurate as well in how it portrays Bismarck. After killing Hood and chasing off Prince of Wales she was slowed and low at the bow due to battle damage - exactly as shown.
Moments in to her last battle a shell from the battleship Rodney hammered in to her superstructure and silenced her forward guns and killed her command crew. Exactly as shown. And when the British cruisers closed for the coup de grace she was already tipping over, and thus the torpedoes hit her deck rather than her sides. As shown.
Its a lot of effort to make a video that is both so beautiful and so accurate.
That should be a top comment.
They also showed that the British ships waited around to pick up German sailors. Shame U-Boats were spotted and they had to cut and run.
And how the plane to spot the Bismark for the Fleet was an American PBY-1. And then the Swordfish appeared. And then it was over because no matter how kickass you are, you can't fight a Fleet on your own.

According to Wikipedia, out of over 2200 crew members, only 114 survived when the Bismarck sank.
They also saved a cat.
The British, still scorned over the loss of the Hood, faked a U boat sighting and only picked up a few survivors.
Orders were for a Quote: "Sample".
You can look this up.
Still 114 is 111 too many for us to have saved
