Get these great bards to play for our medieval battles

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

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.

@xx_CoolSnail14_xx my bad haha, true they have alot of Armenian influence

@@sarimahmedguitars also Kim Kardashian and Ken Devitian from Borat movie

Ikr! This just sounds right, oh my gawd.

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 💀

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

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.

I was literally just thinking that

Yes!

@@StoneMane Can we even count that as a try?

@@scallie6462 you have not given near enough of a fair amount of time to ndhoox12 to gather his cockisis and constituents. If Kevinglas Olmedo is rallying to elect Algal the Bard the crowned king then I'll officially have notarized and authorized and certified and subsidized and written into law for *you* to be the elected Republican representative of this dog and pony show and we will take a proper vote of the people to decide now whether it will be so or not. Yay, or neigh. So far ndhoox is just barely trailing behind Kevinglas Olmedo's 171 votes with two electoral votes himself. It's a close race again, we'll have to wait and see who iselected. stay tuned

@@o0GrayMatters0o Thanks my loyal servant, but I believe we should not be divided upon miniscule problems, nor count votes, for as all are completely under the banner of Sir Original Uploader of this musical genre, the one and only we all came to watch today.

@@kevinolmedo675 Oh king, eh, very nice. An' how'd you get that, eh? By exploitin' the workers -- by 'angin' on to outdated imperialist dogma which perpetuates the economic an' social differences in our society! ....If there's ever going to be any progress--

Cracked out algorithm or cracked out search history?

Great comment, originality is essential for genuine humour. We see this less and less the longer we are without the thumbs down feature.

😂😂

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.

🤣🤣

The band members usually see these videos and repost them on instagram

Serj would absolutely love this

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

My thoughts exactly...going to make a playlist now starting with this song.

indeed.

Yo you just gave me an idea to play this along with Skyrim

I’m so envious of people that get to play that. I never have but it looks great.

@@SmearyRenold you can find groups on discord

Underrated comment

No, we are in dnd.

I'm doing that right now. I probably shouldn't on this much acid. I also probably should have gone outside to do this.

I feel you I'm from bama no one gets it lol

I guess you could say its pretty....... Bardcore

Underrated

@@King_Haze 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.

He only needs a solid looping pedal.

Yeah, he just has to work on that pesky cloning thing.

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.

@@BeardyGit89 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

@@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

@@Drak976 Bardcore is different from bard.

It was meant to be found.

@@camfrog79 you're welcome if you need somebody to talk, contact me

Chop Suey actually features a bouzouki (the first instrument in the video).

Avitesh Domanlall sOAD used a lot of Armenian folk scales and instruments which is why it works

@@richardcraig599 I've been to Armenian Orthodox services and this song really does sound eerily similar to their equivalent of plainsong chanting

I can feel it toooo

Probably it would have been considered subversive. Look at how Mozart was received, pushing the limits and people were going wild

@@tortron Actually I don't know how Mozart was received but I will look into it. I just know more about painting, Manet or Delacroix were considered as degenerates at their time, but well acclaimed today. Didn't know it could have been the same with classical music.

@@gixxerpwns I don't really think it could be considered the devil's music. Only diminished 5ths were considered diabolus in musica, if I recall my studies correctly...

This is what seductive gypsies dances to festivities.

It would drive the shepherds wild, that's for sure.

I hate myself so much now, for not finding this sooner.

result of the plague

strange stuff comes up due to this pandemic... not the oldest video that got recommended

I just hope he does more of these crazy covers now. This is his niche, that's for sure.

This.

Yes, gwynt soundtrack would be good

Playing this on my phone while playing witcher 3, its fucking amazing. The crescendo while horse racing is thee shiyit

This song (and much of SOAD's music0 uses traditional Amernian music as a template, just with a hearty dash of LA hardcore added on top

You should look up the artist that makes the witcher's music. They are actually a metal band too so your idea has gone full cycle XD. They also have metal covers of all their own songs from the witcher. The artist's name is Percival Schuttenbach

everyone knows singing with voices wasn't invented until the 1950's.

@@jeffhall92 No, you're think of the electric singing voice (tm).

Yeah but they also probably didn't have phrases like "conversion software version 7.0"

Oi fack off

@@rtmis1 true. They were in software version 1.0 at the time. But most people wouldn't talk about software for fear of being burned alive...

Same, this is my first time hearing it! 😂

A lot of this medieval stuff is coming around idk

Same here! Fuck! Made me go to Spotify and fire up Elvenking radio

Watched Metallica cover then saw this and immediately clicked on it

I've ignored it for two years. I liked SOAD eight years ago, now I don't. But I wanted to know what some parts sounded like. The video be better than I expected.

is that what this feeling is?
