From their newest album, I also recommend "Bella Donna," "Blade Runner," "Broken Survivors" and "Moonlight Rendezvous." Their most recent album "Dark Connection" is just sublime.
As a Finn I wouldn't know as we only have little over 700 metal bands per 1M inhabitants, but since no other country comes even close, I'll agree with you.
Fun fact: the band name "Beast in Black" and the many themes and subjects in the songs were inspired by the dark fantasy manga "Berserk"! And yes, this band's sound is very "cheesy" sounding in the best way possible. Very fun, energetic, and the melodies will get stuck in your head all day. Like many have mentioned, the self titled song "Beast in Black", and "Die by the Blade" are some good listens! I'd also reccomend "Zodd the Immortal" which is more aggressive and I think really shows what Yannis is capable of.
I recently found their Unlimited Sin, and I can listen to that song on loop for hours Reveangeance Machine and the above one are just both such pure adrenaline pumpers
Yeah and personally I think that the Beast In Black version is better than the original. And don’t get me wrong, I love the Rocky IV soundtrack and the film.
This is 80's cheese power metal...with the modern stylistics. If 80's metal was like this, it would have been so much better. They really went into the 80's vibe in the next album. They are definitely going for a certain style. Loved the reaction...you def have a new sub!
Hammerfall came through Atlanta in the late 90s for the first time, and I vividly remember Oscar Dronjak's stick-like long arms, like there was no muscle at all. Didn't stop him from playing some fun metal music, though.
I saw them as a pre-show for Nightwish, and I had never heard of them, but the performance was great, Yannis’s singing was amazing, all the songs were catchy as hell and I was singing along even during this first hearing. And the synchronised guitar movements are fun as hell. I really really like their song “Beast In Black” (a lot of songs of their album Berserker ar based on a manga/anime called Berserk), so please react to that song please :-) They were super nice (you could talk with them after the concert) and people were buying loads of records and CDs from them, so they made a big impression!
Was just going to post the same thing. Also, a live version of that, from Lankafest Puolanka is great. Though it's not professional quality, but performance excellent!
But did you knooooooooow... Yannis, the singer, made a cover of Ghost Love Score on his channel. Worth a detour though I wish he'd strayed away more from the original. :) ... and judging by the Tank Note that just popped up as I typed those words, yeah, you do. Btw, I think Powerwolf and Ensiferum are two of the biggest power/folk bands you havent checked yet, could be cool one of these days ! :) But when it comes to Power, I'm mostly waiting for more Blind Guardian / Iced Earth / Demons & Wizards tbf. ^^
Their riffs are a lot heavier than power metal on average... and the singer's voice is a lot higher than what most people are used to... I wouldn't really call it easy listening
@@Minotaur-ey2lg What era of Priest because Priest Painkiller Era and onward is 100% proto-power metal and 100% heavier than BiB's heaviest songs. Their 70's~early 80's era stuff was more NWOBHM and generally lighter than stuff that Maiden put out but around the late 80s and onwards Priest began putting heavy emphasis on a heavier sound. The entire Angel of Retribution album is extremely heavy compared to their older songs. BiB sounds more like Hammerfall, Battle Beast (the founders previous band), Powerwulf, etc.
The interiors were filmed in Raasepori castle. When I visited that way with some friends, it was closed for bridge maintenance, but the ruin was still impressive from the outside (funny thinking how the hill it's on was an island). The most memorable thing was the jackdaws. Every hole and crevice had a pair of blue eyes just staring out of the darkness.
This was the first song I listened to when I first found them and totally thought it was a female voice. One of the guitarists left Battle Beast and founded Beast In Black and is the "beast" as he does some very interesting growls/screams. As Battle Beast is female fronted i thought it was female as well until i got to other songs. Also Yannis's cover of Ghost Love Score is great. Most of their songs have a 80's vibe with the synths but it makes nearly all their songs just soooo catchy.
BEAST IN BLACK - From Hell With Love is a ripper, give this one a go, wibt take you long to start head banging, i give it about 3 seconds followed by aggressive nodding Born again is another top song
I'm sure others have said this, but you should look into Wagakki Band. They're a Japanese band that blends new and old instruments. Also Beast in Black has an awesome 80s feel in alot of their songs
They were the openers of the last Nightwish concert I went to, great introduction to get the crowd hyped and a very cool combination with Nightwish. Afterwards, the singer of this band covered Ghost Love Score from Nightwish, fantastically.
I can't help but think of producer/songwriter Max Martin when I hear that chorus, it's so his style, only in rock, not pop. And Yannis is a countertenor, the highest male voice.
Wow... great u did this Song.... first Time hearing this, i was confused.. not looking.. only the Voice... and than... wtf... its awesome... i saw them Live.. and he realy does that.....
I've seen them live a couple of years ago in cologne, Yannis is an awesome guy. Actually was invited by his sister to go to Beast in Black concert. Good memories
I tend to categorize Beast in Black as 1980s Power Metal. The video of From Hell With Love is the most 80s thing I’ve seen since the 80s. I love the band, and yes it is great to just put on every so often to just have fun with Metal.
I love how Power Metal is pretty diverse, you get stuff like this and Gloryhammer, and then you have more heavy and serious like Jag Panzer and Kamelot.
@@rominesque2921 It's a rather common misconception. I'm not much of a genre gatekeeper/nerd, but just personally I think of "symphonic metal" not really a genre, since there are so many genres within metal that use symphonic metal. From Nightwish and Kamelot to Fleshgod Apocalypse and Shadow of Intent. Just like with pirate metal and viking metal, they're just loose terms describing an aspect of the music, like themes or a musical element, like the use of orchestration.
@@Renkaru I'd argue the symphonic metal genre as its commonly understood definitely has its own trappings both musical and aesthetic, which Kamelot falls into quite a few of. Especially post-Silverthorn.
@@rominesque2921 I agree and see where you're coming from, but its still power metal at the essence of their music. Their overall song writing is still very much indicative of that. Labels and genres don't mean that much to me, I just like know about the specifics of a band, and understand their nuances. All I would say is Symphonic Metal alone is not a genre, but you can definitely say Kamelot is Symphonic Power Metal, which would be correct in explaining their sound and aesthetic. If that makes sense.
The guy who is after the Beauty, is not beast in black, he is one of their ROADIEs. Doesn't fit in the video perfectly, but he looks funny and out of this castle :). I like this song, and i like this band. Hopefully they can start touring soon again.
They have Motorhead's cover Killed By Death on this album. My best recommendation. And mix of power metal with 80's electropop is their feature. Listen Battle Beast's song Touch In The Night. Battle Beast is previous band of their guitarist Anton.
Beast In Black is one of those bands that COMPLETELY destroys your preconceived notions of what 'good' metal really is. They came out of NOWHERE and absolutely SMASHED every single stereotype and just took the entire metal world by storm. They have two solid albums without a single bad song on either one of them.
Think of it as 80s rock mixed with power metal and you get Beast in Black. They also like the anime Berserk so at least half of their songs are based off the anime.
Beast in Black! I saw them opening for Nightwish and it was so much fun! I was already acquainted with their material, but my boyfriend wasn't and he told me it made him think of 80's-90's rock bands, and I kind of get why.
Hey Tank! always showing urs awesome reactions. From this band they have 2 albums, i know the second one "Berserker" is a oda to "Berserk" manga (the best in all). His songs titled "Beast in Black" and "Die by the Sword" are my favourites. Enjoy!
I think that Leader of Beast in Black - Anton Kabanen have written this song for female voice. because he also was a leader aNd songwriter of another wonderful band Battle Beast with very powerful female vocalist. Anton has left Battle Beast and create Beast in Black. Advice you to check Battle Beast, my favorites songs from this Band is Iron Hand and Out of control.
Man the chorus always gives me goosebumps. Heard them first time as a warm-up at a Nightwish concert and the totally got me. Always great choreo with the guitars (throwback to the 80s). Love it!
I know what you mean about the sound. I think it sounds like 80's movie or computer game music in the background of their songs.Then there's the powermetal over the top of it. Unique sound. From Hell with Love gives me a Top Gun - Dangerzone feeling even though the song is nothing like.
"Crazy Mad Insane" (Disco-Metal-Mix) "Oceandeep" (wonderful ballad) "Zodd the Immortal" (probably their hardest song) Yannis Papadopoulos is the singer, he has a youtube channel where he covers quite a few songs. Many of the songs and much of the art is inspired by the manga "Berserk".
I saw them as the opening act for Nightwish and I was wondring who the female in the band was, because it sounded like their was a female singer in the band for sure 🤣
YASSSSSSSSSSSSSS so happy to see this! Beast in Black deserves all the recognition. They are freaking amazing!!! Both of their albums so far are so good. Other really great songs are Sweet True Lies, From Hell with Love, Zodd The Immortal, Bron Again, Cry out for a Hero, & Beast in Black. As everyone has mentioned, Yannis is a very (very very VERY) talented vocalist, you should check out his RUclips channel. The dude is probably one of THE BEST male vocalists out there. His cover of Ghost Love Score (GLS) is pretty epic (hoping one day he and FLoor perform it together live). Anton founded and was part of another Finnish - Beast in Black (there is a whole story there) who are also pretty good. Slightly cheesier but still good power metal. And their frontwoman is pretty amazing ( Noora Louhimo). Another recommendation for the power metally journey - give Powerwolf a go.
I absolutely love this band. They are killer at this fun-metal homage-to-the-80s vibe and Yannis is phenomenal. Please please please do more - From Hell With Love, Repentless, Beast in Black, Oceandeep, Crazy Mad Insane. Also, my favorite detail on Kasperi’s guitar is the Decepticon emblem. 🤘
So I've seen these guys live twice supporting nightwish and gloryhammer. All of the band are sweethearts and Yannis can hit those notes live. He's done a cover of Ghost love score and hits those notes too! Now for reccomendations. Antonis the guitarist writes a lot of songs inspired by the anime/manga berserk. So I'm going to suggest Zod the immortal or Repentless. I totally agree with you about them being old school fun power metal! You have so much fun when they're on stage. Fingers crossed I'll see them headlining in 2021.
I saw them on tour with Nightwish and a year later on their own tour in a small venue on a Monday night. It was the funnest concert I've been to in the last few years. The crowd was amazing.
Been into power metal for about as long as I have been into metal, give or take a week or so. This is power metal. If you wanted to show someone what power metal was in a single song, you wouldn't use a mid tempo song like this, but the truth is undeniable.

During live performances, Yannis would randomly sing a octave higher or lower. Love him for that. Dude be flexin'
Power Metal with an 80's vibe? I'm in.
Check out "From Hell With Love" and "Sweet True Lies" from these guys! Now I'm gonna go listen to them all day haha
Or given that he made the Rocky comparison, No Easy Way Out.
You should checkout the nightcore remix of from hell with love. It's pretty good
Not all day. 12 hours beast in black 12 hours sabaton
I love sweet true lies
From their newest album, I also recommend "Bella Donna," "Blade Runner," "Broken Survivors" and "Moonlight Rendezvous." Their most recent album "Dark Connection" is just sublime.
He seriously needs Ensiferum. Finns are da best in music.
Yes! I would suggest Lai la hei, iron, hero in a dream, into Battle.....
And i recommend this Finnish band too : Turisas - Stand up and fight.
@@tapsavaan1671 Great song & the video is like the Finnish version of Mad Max The Road Warrior.
As a Finn I wouldn't know as we only have little over 700 metal bands per 1M inhabitants, but since no other country comes even close, I'll agree with you.
As a non-finn I'm fuckin jealous of you guys 😤😅
Beast in Black: "From Hell with Love", "The Fifth Angel", "Crazy, Mad, Insane". Also Yannis' Cover of Ghost Love Score... ;-)
I'm glad to see another one here who really likes Crazy, Mad, Insane. It's one of my favourites.
Crazy, Mad, Insane is an awesome one.
Seconding this. Also Zodd the immortal. Some more love for Berzerk my dudes.
WHAT!?!? HE COVERED GHOST LOVE SCORE!?!? Be back in like 20 minutes. Also, Crazy, Mad, Insane is a GREAT song.
Yes you must check put hsi cover of ghost love score Yannis is the goat

Yeah, but isn’t all power metal kinda cheesy? Doesn’t mean I don’t love it.
Check the chorus of Judas Priest's Night Crawler ;) It's a double reference
@@Minotaur-ey2lg plz define cheesy!
I recently found their Unlimited Sin, and I can listen to that song on loop for hours
Reveangeance Machine and the above one are just both such pure adrenaline pumpers
The Rocky connection isn't that weird, they actually did a cover of "No Easy Way Out" from Rocky 4 on their last album
No way! Haha
Yeah and personally I think that the Beast In Black version is better than the original. And don’t get me wrong, I love the Rocky IV soundtrack and the film.
This is 80's cheese power metal...with the modern stylistics. If 80's metal was like this, it would have been so much better. They really went into the 80's vibe in the next album. They are definitely going for a certain style.

Thanks a ton, Ryan!
Intro music: hammerfall - Hearts on Fire
Outro music blind guardian - Mirror Mirror
Thought it was somewhat fitting. haha
I love Hammerfall! I'm loving Dominion and Hectors Hymn. To me this band is good ol fashion hard rock n roll👊
Hammerfall came through Atlanta in the late 90s for the first time, and I vividly remember Oscar Dronjak's stick-like long arms, like there was no muscle at all. Didn't stop him from playing some fun metal music, though.
Saw Hammerfall live opening for Sabaton last year. Man that was a show!
Some people are turned off by his voice, which I don’t personally agree with but can understand, but you can’t deny he is very talented.
I saw them as a pre-show for Nightwish, and I had never heard of them, but the performance was great, Yannis’s singing was amazing, all the songs were catchy as hell and I was singing along even during this first hearing.

i went to the nightwish tour just to see them :D
With his previous band Battle Beast about halve the songs he wrote were Berserk themed. He seems to have two modes, Berserk and bygone love songs.
Same for me
Same here, saw them supporting nightwish. loved them, checked them out the next day. bought both albums a few weeks later.
This is the most refreshing band I've heard in ages. I discovered this after listening to Battle beast.
you need to listen to Beast in black - Beast in black . the best song of that album!
Yes! I totally agree! :D
Exactly this! 😊
Was just going to post the same thing. Also, a live version of that, from Lankafest Puolanka is great. Though it's not professional quality, but performance excellent!

"Easy listening" power metal
Their riffs are a lot heavier than power metal on average... and the singer's voice is a lot higher than what most people are used to... I wouldn't really call it easy listening
MyFaceIsMyShield
Kinda reminds me of heavier Judas Priest.
@@Minotaur-ey2lg reminds me of Primal Fear (who are basically just a more aggressive Judas Priest)
@@Minotaur-ey2lg What era of Priest because Priest Painkiller Era and onward is 100% proto-power metal and 100% heavier than BiB's heaviest songs.

BiB sounds more like Hammerfall, Battle Beast (the founders previous band), Powerwulf, etc.
If i would named their style would be "disco metal". From Hell with Love is one of my favorite songs by them. Greetings from Brazil. 🤘🇧🇷
Shoutouts to Hammerfall being the background music in the intro
If you wanna hear how hard these guys go, check out their titular track "Beast in black." It's definitely a change of pace from this one.
The interiors were filmed in Raasepori castle. When I visited that way with some friends, it was closed for bridge maintenance, but the ruin was still impressive from the outside (funny thinking how the hill it's on was an island). The most memorable thing was the jackdaws. Every hole and crevice had a pair of blue eyes just staring out of the darkness.

BEAST IN BLACK - From Hell With Love
is a ripper, give this one a go, wibt take you long to start head banging, i give it about 3 seconds followed by aggressive nodding
Born again is another top song
Yannis does incredible covers of some Nightwish songs. Sahara is totally amazing. I prefer his version now.
I prefer his version of Ghost Love Score also
@@justinbowe38 Yeah,mee too.😍
Beast in black by Beast in black is top tier.
I'm sure others have said this, but you should look into Wagakki Band. They're a Japanese band that blends new and old instruments.
Also Beast in Black has an awesome 80s feel in alot of their songs
Beast in Black is the epitome of cheesyness! Absolutely love them because of the fun they have in their music.
They were the openers of the last Nightwish concert I went to, great introduction to get the crowd hyped and a very cool combination with Nightwish. Afterwards, the singer of this band covered Ghost Love Score from Nightwish, fantastically.
TAROT (Marco Hietala from Nightwish) "Wings of darkness", please! 🇫🇮
If you feel like doing more of them: born again, die by the blade, from hell with love, heart of steel are solid choices.
*I really like BEAST IN BLACK and would recommend one of my favourite songs of them : "Crazy, Mad, Insane"....*
I had this song in my head for about 2 months straight when I first heard it. Super catchy!
Please, react "Avantasia - The Scarecrow"
this is what exactly what Power metal is and its so good!
no matter how many times i hear this song it gives me goosebumps
Fun reaction. Yannis also did a cover of Nightwish's Ghost Love Score. :D
I can't help but think of producer/songwriter Max Martin when I hear that chorus, it's so his style, only in rock, not pop. And Yannis is a countertenor, the highest male voice.
Wow... great u did this Song.... first Time hearing this, i was confused.. not looking.. only the Voice... and than... wtf... its awesome... i saw them Live.. and he realy does that.....

Beast In Black is pure power metal cheese for sure. And when I'm in the mood, they're *exactly* what the doctor ordered.
The first time I saw the video I was like where's the female singer I had heard dozens of times on the radio.
Hahahahaha
+1 om that
I tend to categorize Beast in Black as 1980s Power Metal. The video of From Hell With Love is the most 80s thing I’ve seen since the 80s. I love the band, and yes it is great to just put on every so often to just have fun with Metal.
Theatrical power metal. Cheeky kind of metal. They have many GOOD songs that gets you going! 🤩
That boy can sing ..... holy crap!! That’s some power metal for sure. Nice Tank🤘
Dude, he sure can!
Jippii.....Another finnish band with great music.
Having seen them live in the last year I can confirm, so much fun. And yes that singer can perform those notes live incredibly well
Saw them opening for NW on tour this month and am falling down the rabbit hole!!

I freakin' LOVE Battle Beast! If BiB is stereotypical powermetal, BB is stereotypical middle-of-the-rod heavy.
Also check out: “Oceandeep” and “True Believer”
Going back through all your vids, Best reactor analyst channel, that "if i get comments saying this isnt power metal, F#$k off" had me in stitches

Was on a Live Concert in Germany (Hannover) they palyed this song, it was amazing. My Parents liked them also (i was wondering)

Fun fact: the large large castle is "Schloss Neuschwanstein" in Bavaria, Germany. I bet, the indoorshots are from another location.
You bet they are! :) There won't be any shooting of metal music videos inside that castle unfortunately :D
"Crazy Mad Insane" (Disco-Metal-Mix)
"Oceandeep" (wonderful ballad)
"Zodd the Immortal" (probably their hardest song)
Yannis Papadopoulos is the singer, he has a youtube channel where he covers quite a few songs.
Many of the songs and much of the art is inspired by the manga "Berserk".

Oh yes! This band is also so much fun to watch live 👍😊
Power Metal with 80s synth stuff. Love it.
Helloween - Keeper of the Seven Keys! Lets go! 💪🏻
Stratovarius- Black Diamond
Sonata Arctica- Dont say a word

Die By the Blade is my favorite song from these guys. Love this band.
Going from this song to Zodd the Immortal is a bit of a mood whiplash.
In Germany we call this "Pop Power Metal or Power Pop Metal" because of its stronge Pop fipes but its realy catchy so yeah why not *mosh* :)
That lead singer is an absolute killer, but damn those two guitarists though 😲
Again, great reaction dude Thxs! 🤘🤘

seconds later: *enthusiastic headbang*

Now for reccomendations. Antonis the guitarist writes a lot of songs inspired by the anime/manga berserk. So I'm going to suggest Zod the immortal or Repentless.
I totally agree with you about them being old school fun power metal! You have so much fun when they're on stage. Fingers crossed I'll see them headlining in 2021.
crying out for a hero is maybe my favorite of theirs
The singer made a cover of Ghost love score from Nightwish, pretty impressive
Well, just found out Beast in Black is opening for Nightwish on the US leg of their tour in 2022. Should be a damn good show!
I saw them on tour with Nightwish and a year later on their own tour in a small venue on a Monday night. It was the funnest concert I've been to in the last few years. The crowd was amazing.
" Die by the Blade " is on par with this song and a great follow up.
Ah man, reshuffling through some videos and I realized this was my first Tank The Tech vid i ever watched. Totally sold me my man. So awesome.
🤘🤘🤘
Aerobic metal ... lol That's funny :) This band is just.. AWESOME !
Okay, so you're reacting to EVERY song that's on my playlist these days?
Cool cool. Let's gooo!
Been into power metal for about as long as I have been into metal, give or take a week or so. This is power metal.
If you wanted to show someone what power metal was in a single song, you wouldn't use a mid tempo song like this, but the truth is undeniable.
Craks another beer can open... Yep, they can and he is fcking awesome.. And you know your stuff very well my friend!
