This is about the way totalitarian regimes (would very much like to) treat entertainers, artists and poets, that deign to incorporate even a whiff of criticism into their output... I think the message is really important this day and age, and every metalhead has the cells to know how important it is to support critical investigative journalism, freedom of expression and fact-based public discussion.

Shame the don’t sing in English but Finnish language sounds very interesting!

I appreciate any reactor who doesn't force themselves to fall in love with every song. As a Finn, the lyrics are so clever they mask the rather basic song. But even without the video, it's an intense, well-produced and performed thing. Not one for the ages, but enjoyable.

There also a weird sense of dark humor in there too

Heeeyy!! There's that Stam1na reaction 😁 Thanks for doing it. Stam1na are quite socially aware band and has a lot of criticism in their songs for the state of humanity, government and corporate world these days. Their albums often have a theme in them. Official videos are usually made with dark humor and can be a bit distracting from the song, when you don't understand the lyrics. Maybe try some suggested songs live, or just audio.

Oh I just now saw that you've reacted to stam1na. This band has a special place in my heart because their music helped me push through a very difficult time in my life. Anything from the album "Raja" is awesome. Susi-Ihminen , Muuri... Lääke has a very awesome video. Panzerfaust is one cool video too.

Thank you for this! This song is about the things why Marco left public life.

Jes its Finnish band 🇫🇮😂🤧 and i home you are not traumatized👋🇫🇮

I like their song "sirkkeli" because it's simple and pure 'in your face' type of Thrash Metal. Songs that have more or at least deeper meaning could be like "Enkelinmurskain" or "Kannoin sinut läpi hiljaisen huoneen".

Follow your channel for quite sometime, like your honesty👍 so surprised to see Stam1na today😁😁😁 „yhdeksän tien päät“ is one of my favourites, would love to see a reaction on it 😉

I appreciate that ill add this one to the list...

Pretty much an old school thrash band. Their sense if humor puts me in the mind of Anthrax before they decided to take themselves deadly serious all the time, or certain Megadeth songs. Great reaction!

Thanks for an honest reaction. Their songs range from full on trash to more slow, harmony and melody based ones. Videos are quite often done with some comedy aspect and not related to song directly. My favourite album is Viimeinen atlantis and maybe check Piste jolta ei ollut paluuta from it next. Its a theme album so if you have time listen it end to end to get the full picture.

Orbit Culture - Shaman EP is out, would love to see your reaction!

@@BaldHeadedMETAL sounds awesome!

First of all you actually hit pretty close for pronouncing the name of the song. the first 2 words were strongly accented but otherwise spot on and only the third word "Vaateet" was mangled. Name means "Rulers new Demands" and is a pun of the old fairytale "Emperors new clothes (Keisarin uudet vaaTTeet)". It is said that the song is about the record labels. Song talks about how a musician is critic to the powers that be and therefore must be censored, disgraced, silenced, drowned to deep waters and beaten (not necessarily in this order).

Ahhh that makes sense...the visuals definitely make sense.

Song is literally translated : The Emperor's New Clothes, and dont worry butchering finnish language :)

No it isn´t, it translates to New demands of the ruler "Ruler is demanding A punishment for the criticism A censorship, a banishment for the sickness of the singer Disgrace as a cure Fames are undressed New demands of the ruler Wags a finger at the ruler Prisoner's stocks and shackles are shaken off like dandruff Sings his end at the public pyre even though was pointing a finger only at his mirror"
