Melissa Bonny is in the band Ad Infinitum. I recommend their song Marching on Versailles

The turning instrument is a Hurdy Gurdy (Dreh-Leier in German). Its similar to Bagpipes as in it has a set of strings producing a constant drone sound and a set of playable strings along with it. A lot of German Folk Metal Bands like to use them. Check out Saltatio Mortis or more Feuerschwanz to see more of it.

check out SALTATIO MORTIS - The Dragonborn Comes and my Mother told me :)

SALTATIO MORTIS - My mother told me is another awesome one with them.

Nice reaction. This Manowar cover is a great colab of the bands Feuerschwanz, Saltatio Mortis and Ad Infinitum. Feuerschwanz plays Medieval Metal and usually their lyrics are in German. The strange instrument is a hurdy gurdy. It's a stringed instrument with a rosined wheel that rubs against the strings (instead of a violin bow) to cause vibration in the strings. The keys are used to shorten the strings for different notes. The first two vocalists are from Feuerschwanz: Ben Metzner (aka Prinz R. Hodenherz III ) and Peter Henrici (aka Hauptmann Feuerschwanz). Melissa Bonny is leadsinger in her own band Ad Infinitum (check out "Marching on Versailles" or "Unstoppable") and has been featured in another Feuerschwanz cover song ("Ding" originally by German dancehall/reggae band Seeed) where she performs some great harsh vocals. She is from Switzerland as is Thomas Winkler (the guy in green armor). Thomas aka Angus McFife was leadsinger for the band Gloryhammer. Finally there is Jörg Roth (with the side cut) aka Alea der Bescheidene from the German Medieval Rock Band Saltatio Mortis. Original Feuerschwanz songs you could check out are "Metfest", "Schubsetanz" (normal or Black Metal version), "Meister der Minne", "Ultima Nocte", Memento Mori", "Skaldenmet" or some of their other great covers like "Ding" originally by Seeed, "Hier kommt Alex" originally by Die Toten Hosen or their cover of Ed Sheerans "I see Fire" (from their virtual live concert featuring Angus McFife (Thomas Winkler)). A really new band you could also check out is The Dark Side of the Moon made of members from Feuerschwanz, Ad Infinitum and Amaranthe. They only released two songs so far but are working on an album currently. They emerged as a result of a bet between Melissa Bonny and Feuerschwanz guitarist Hans Platz about which song would hit one million views on KZread first, "Marching on Versailles" or "Ding". Hans won the bet and Melissa had to do a cover song with him. They asked Melissas partner Morten Løwe Sørensen from Amaranthe to play the drums and Jenny Diehl aka Mieze Myu from Feuerschwanz to play harp and recorded a cover of the song "Jenny of Oldstones" from Game of Thrones (S8E3). Recently they released their second track which is a Metal cover of Enyas "May It Be" from the Lord of the Rings soundtrack. The plan for the album is to create (Metal)covers of well known songs from TV-series, Filmsoundtracks or video Games but also original songs.

with the nice female voice ;-)

Yeah, more Feuerschwanz, more Saltatio Mortis…and Check out the new Single from Schandmaul „Knüppel aus dem Sack“ Welcome to German mediveal metal music. 😃

04:26 It's a hurdy gurdy, it kind of sounds like a violin mixed with a bag pipe and thus gives a very nice medieval touch to the music.

Germans always did it, a lot copied it. Love it, too!

I recommending Kampfzwerg by Feuerschwanz. Its a original and the Guitar Solo is very very good ;)

Yeah! ;-)

It is a hurdy Gurdy
