My FIRST TIME Hearing GLORYHAMMER - "Gloryhammer" | (REACTION) 

Gloryhammer rides that perfect line where you can listen to it as a joke or in total seriousness depending on your mood.

just more proof that christopher bowes is a mad genius

All 3 albums have a kick ass narrative and they all end in a 10 minute ultimate showdown that is awesome to hear everytime

Never clicked so fast on a video EVER! GLORYHAMMER!! Heck yeah!! More Gloryhammer please!!

they do actually have a "fantasy" album, like, medieval high fantasy, being their debut album also, their albums follow a story, from the 1st song of the first album to the last song of their latest album, its all one storyline, theyre basically the dungeons and dragons of metal lol

Napalm: How would you like your metal? Me: With all the cheese.

Gloryhammer has a lot of good songs! This one, Rise of the Chaos Wizards, Hootsforce, Masters of the Galaxy, Universe on Fire, Unicorn Invasion of Dundee, etc. Try them!

If you're doing Gloryhammer again, here's a classic: Unicorn Invasion of Dundee

You can actually listen to every single song from this band, they’re amazing

Chris from Alestorm actually started this band too. He doesn’t play keyboard live with them cus alestorm is his main project now. I think he might still write for em though?

"Universe on Fire" is my favourite Gloryhammer song. You should give it a try, Alex!

Next: Rise of the chaos wizards

React to “Hootsforce” next. It continues from "Gloryhammer".

Gloryhammers albums are a continuing story so I suggest you listen to them all if you want a context about what is going on

Rise of the chaos wizards or Angus mcfife by gloryhammer are musts

We just need FALCONER - Lord of the Blacksmiths / The Clarion Call. Its literally a fantasy folk middleages power metal thing

Do Gloryhammer's Rise of the Chaos Wizards

"Gloryhammer by Gloryhammer... Lets see, what this is about." - Sherlock Hefner.

Hell yeah dude! The keyboardist is also the lead singer of Alestorm! Who just dropped a new album which you should definitely check out.

Gloryhammer?! I’ve never heard of these guys sadly so this is my first time hearing to the name of this band and ironically, the name of their song as well being called Gloryhammer so let’s get to react to these guys together! Wow! You’re right man! As I was reacting to these guys along with you, I was also thinking that these guys are dope! I am so going to listen to more of these guys on my own free time no matter what I’m doing! Looking forward to more Gloryhammer reactions like this one in the near future and due to your positive feedback to these guys for the first time, not only do I think you will but I also hope that you do! Keep on rocking, bro!🎸🎸🎸

They write their songs as if all the lyrics come from an intense D&D game and it's awesome - to be honest you have to check out all their songs in chronological order to follow the storyline

Hi! Here are bands that you have *never reacted to* but should have _in my opinion_ (in alphabetical order): • -Alice Cooper- (done) • Amaranthe • Beast in Black • Blackbriar • Delain • Equilibrium • Exit Eden • -Gloryhammer- (done) *And another band crossed off \o/* • Hammerfall • Heidevolk • Korpiklaani • Lordi • -Lord of the Lost- (done) • Manowar • -Nirvana- (done) • Sirenia • -Skillet- (done) • Sonata Arctica • Turisas • Týr • Van Canto • -Within Temptation- (done) • Xandria

“Pumping Iron Power” by grailknights! You’ll love it I promise!!

Hi Alex. Please react to Avantasia: the Scarecrow or the raven child. I will not give up until you do a reaction of this great band. You will love this band for sure. Greetings from Germany.

Oh yes, finally. Love the boys of Gloryhammer, saw them live already. Keep it up!

Dude... you need to react to Powerwolf - Demons are a girls best friend. It's amazing!!! Plus I'm going to mention it again SHADOW OF INTENT - THE HERETIC PREVAILS do it!!!!!!

Alex, if you liked this, you should check out Gloryhammer's "Rise of the Chaos Wizards".

fun fact: Chris Bowes (keyboardist) founded this band as a joke based on they're D&D campaign (if i remember correctly...) and is also the founder of Alestorm.

Gloryhammer is so special, as a metalhead myself I have never seen group like this before tbh.

Hammerfall: Hearts on fire! Do it! :D

Thomas' voice is just damn good and unique. Love hearing it

Can you believe that the singer actually works as a notary in his regular life?! Imagine him being late from a video shoot rushing back into office and forgetting to take off his armour.

The fact that more people aren’t recommending Apocalypse 1992 is criminal

YES! Gloryhammer!! One of my favourite bands! Saw the live last december when they were on tour with Powerwolf. That was such a cool night

I saw them live This song is a freakin' banger live, truly awesome

I would LOVE to see you react to more Gloryhammer! Their songs are all so fun, and they're super talented.

You should listen to the album "Tales from the kingdom of Fife"! Or at least the song "Angus McFife" I love Gloryhammer and will always do! One of the best power metal bands in the universe!

I am so beyond happy you reacted to them dude. They are one of my favorites! Cheers mate~

This band has created an insanely detailed lore around themselves and their music

This is exactly what we need during these trying times in the country/world... something that, although silly, just makes you smile. An escape.

The way your face lit up as the song turned it up to 11 right at the start is just priceless. I can’t find too many videos where there’s just that look of pure, unfiltered joy in someone’s face.

Please do react to : 1. Fraser Edwards - Stop Saying We Sound Like Dragonforce 2. Twilight Force - The Power Of The Ancient Force 3. Rhapsody Of Fire - The Magic Of The Wizzard Dream 4. Vision Divine - La Vita Fugge (live) / Angel Of Revenge 5. PelleK & Tommy Johannson - Nothing But Metal 6. Power Quest - Temple of Fire 7. Lost Horizon - Highlander (The One)

Gloryhammer is 100% their epic-level D&D campaign put into song form

Who noticed that he didn't put "hiphophead reacts" but "my first time hearing" WE MADE HIM A METALHEAD!

Avatar - Hail the Apocalypse Avatar - Paint me Red (live wacken) Airbourne - Back in the Game Stone Sour - Tired

My first time listening to gloryhammer - gloryhammer is from a reaction video reacting hearing it for the first time 😍 And I'm not regretting it

If you want a song that tells a story, I would recommend Three Hammers by Dragonforce

Great Video as always Iced earth: cthulhu, dracula or raven wing Nighwish: storytime Black Label society: suicide messiah

Possibly the best part about Gloryhammer songs and albums is that they form a full story, from start to finish. And it's so ludicrous and yet so good...

5 Stages of listening to Gloryhammer: Stage 1: LAZER POWERED GOBLIN SMASHER! Stage 2: What other song did they sing? Stage 3: Wait, they are telling a story in order? I need to listen from the first album. I need to know the lore. Stage 4: Why is Netflix not doing a Gloryhammer series yet? Stage 5: When is the next album? I can't wait! I NEED TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111111111

oh god, you definitely need to check out Twilight Force-The Blade Of Immortal Steel

if you want to listen to more stuff of gloryhammer i can recommand "hootsforce" and "the unicorn invasion of dundee"

Seeing them live is a glorious thing to behold. I have been fortunate enough to see them both times they came through the states and will never turn down an opportunity to see them.

Thank you! We've been asking this for a while... now you need to react to The Siege of Dunkeld to feel the full epicness of Gloryhammer.

Oh now you have to react to "Unicorn invasion of Dundee"!!

Never clicked on a video so fast. Love this song. Thanks for reacting to it.

Crystal Viper - When the Sun goes down ... or song called Witches mark Dimmu Borgir - Mourning Palace live at Wacken

React to the whole The Poison album by Bullet For My Valentine

The keyboardist of this band is also the singer of Alestorm. (Who just dropped an album a few weeks ago Both bands have so many bangers and Hootsforce, The Siege of Dunkeld (In Hoots we Trust), or Rise of the Chaos Wizards would all be great places to go next if you want to see what else Gloryhammer have to offer.

This is the kind of reaction I like to see. The look on your face is pretty much how me and my brother looked when we saw Sabaton's "Bismarck" for the first time. When all the elements in the song come together, it just hits you in a different way.

LASER.POWERED.GOBLIN.SMASHER! i have seen gloryhammer on their very first tour. I still go to every concert of them nearby wheter it is belgium, germany or NL. They are one of the few bands that go UP in quality and performances. Live shows are always amazing. They never have boring bands as guests.... and then the merch..the godly merch

Each Gloryhammer album is just a magnificent power metal space opera.... And I could ask for nothing more. I LOVE THIS BAND.

Rhapsody with Christopher Lee man do it! "The magic of the Wizards dream"

This song+video is so crazy. It is comedic, but at the same time it gets me super hyped.

Finally! This was my #1 suggestion not too long ago and I'm glad you finally reacted to it. My next suggestion for Gloryhammer is Hootsforce since the story follows from Gloryhammer. I'm glad you liked it!

Duuuuuude! This was so fucking cool! I'm so glad you had a chance to experience Gloryhammer!

About fucking time my guy! They are such an awesome band, and electrifying live! Hoots!

Yes, Gloryhammer has that power to turn you into a headbanging Thor/Green Lantern hybrid.

Liked &shared! The internet needs more Gloryhammer reactions!

now if only he would react to the hollywood hootsman

React to Guano apes: The lords of The board Open your eyes

YES! I love Gloryhammer so much. You gotta check out their song/video "Angus McFife." Amazing song. Cheesiest shit ever, hahaha.

His reaction when Angus jumps into space is priceless

I saw them live last December. One of the best concerts ever

Could you imagine their D&D sessions lol. Although the story they sing about is definitely a higher level campaign. Flying across the galaxy, blowing up planets against the cosmic might of Zargothrax and his Chaos wizards.

Gloryhammer is one LONG DnD campaign that needs to be listened to from track 1 album 1 all the way through to their current album

I've been waiting for you to react to this band for so long! They have so many good songs. Please do another. :)

React to powerwolf - where the wild wolves have gone It will bring a tear to your eye dude !!!!!

Chris from Alestorm writes the music for this band he also plays the evil wizard Zargothrax/keyboards. He doesn't tour with them anymore though because he has to tour with Alestorm. They have three albums that follow a story. The first album takes place in 992 Scotland and the main character is Angus McFife I. The second album takes place in 1992 and the main character is Angus McFife XIII.

YEs! so glad to finally hear you react to GloryHammer

"No better way to start your day then with some METAL!" ***Alex plays JAZZ*** HAHA Love you man.

Rise of the Chaos Wizards was my introduction to Gloryhammer. They're so much fun. Fun fact, the keyboardist (and the evil Zargothrax) is the frontman of Alestorm (who's music you should also react to)

I've seen them live. Absolutely FANTASTIC.

I live in Dundee in Scotland and you should listen to their track "The Unicorn Invasion of Dundee"

Gloryhammer is essentially one big story across 3 albums. Also, fun fact, the keyboardist for GH is the frontman of Alestorm, and voices the evil Zargothrax.

Fun fact, this 1:1 their stage outfit. If you can catch them live (hopefully anytime soonTM) prepare for a great treat in absolute over the top sterotype power metal. The fans usually take that aspect to the next level arriving with all kinds of unicorns, swords, aluminum crafted armor...basically like the Alestorm crowd but instead of pirates it's a fantasy-scifi-unicorn-metal mash up ^^ so much fun

Yes! Finally! More Gloryhammer please.

Oh yeah love this band so much glad you like it as well 😁

Each album has it's own narrative and it's freaking awesome and it continues through each song

If you're getting into power metal, I cannot recommend Powerwolf ENOUGH. "Demons are a Girl's Best Friend" is my favorite!

Eluveitie: rebirth. Strapping young lad: almost again or Devin Townsend fallout :D

There are so many bands I want you to react to, Gloryhammer was easily at the top of that list. I'm super-happy you've done this video! Here are some suggestions for your future reactions: - Gloryhammer, Universe on Fire - Kobra and The Lotus, Black Velvet or Light Me Up - Battle Beast, Straight to The Heart or No More Hollywood Endings - Exit Eden, Skyfall - Beast In Black, From Hell With Love or Blind and Frozen - Ignea, Alexandria - Brothers of Metal, Yggdrasil - Helion Prime, Ocean of Time - Kishida Kyoudan & the Akeboshi Rockets, Gunjou or CircleEnd - Reuben, Deadly Lethal Ninja Assassin

My wife's favourite Gloryhammer song is Rise of the Chaos Wizards (which is somehow in space for some reason). The chorus is pure power metal magic.

Knew you'd love this group. "Hootsforce," "Magic Dragon," "Universe on Fire," honestly I could recommend just about any song they've done but those are among my favorites. Gotta love a good power ballad.

"Every goblin king will fall" unironically is my motivational mantra

This band inspired a science fantasy ttrpg campaign I ran for 6 years. One of my favorite bands of all time. FOR THE GLORY OF DUNDEE. AND THE PWER OF HOOTS

Funny thing. You publish this video the same day I received their Deluxe double CD album of Legends Beyond the Galactic Terrorvortex

It was about time to get back to some power metal !

things you gotta love about gloryhammer is how they're just having fun with it all. check out the song pumping iron metal, it has Joakim from sabaton on it

I love how the spaceships of the Dundaxian armada are just space submarines, literally.
