    I love how this song captures the feelings of dread, doom and horror that was WW1 and trench warfare. Not all metal bands out there get that or manage to put that across. War is quite frankly horrific, and we'd do well as a society to remember that.

    • @draganov
      @draganov 3 роки тому +22

      Indeed. War is horrible and it really pisses me off, when some bands present it as something "glorious" and "brotherly". One of the reasons I despise Sabaton.

      @@draganov Sabaton didn't glorify wars, they just show us what it is.
      It is glorious when soldiers fight for their own country, for their own people, for their own freedom.
      It is brotherly when soldiers fight side by side with brother in arm Against All Odds even go far to the point that they can sacrifice themselves for their friend and family.
      you have to understand that wars is Humanity grayzone, in wars it show us the bad thing that human can do to each other in the same time it show us the good thing human can do to each other.
      Wars is generate by greed, hatred, contradictions and divergence. all of that is Humanity nature so as long as human continue to be human there's no peace just temporarily prepare for war.
      And many of this Sabaton song show the dark and depressed side of humanity for example final solution, The End of the War to End All Wars, In Flanders Fields, Great War, Fields of Verdun.
      so yes it's not glorify when they just tell the true.

    Another great song! Interesting fact: there are still some giant mines from this battle underground in the area today, all are inaccessible though because the tunnels have collapsed. The last explosion occurred in 1955, when a 20m deep crater with 60m of diameter was created.

    It were the good tunnels - 26 ways of doom
    One million pounds of ammonal
    Were packed into the underground pits
    Our artillery was silenced, for the first time in years, all was quiet
    The sky was a very dark blue in the pre-dawn light
    And I swear we heard how the nightingale sings
    3 a.m. 7th June
    We demolished the bottom of Messines
    Trigger down, torn apart by the whirlpool of flame
    Nineteen explosions, 10, 000 were killed, colonel said
    The boches were stunned, dazed, and horror-stricken
    If they were not killed outright
    Many of them lay dead in the great craters opened
    By the mines secretly planted by "the Moles"
    Better the devil you know, than the devil you don't
    And i swear we heard how the nightingale sings
    3 a.m. 7th June
    We demolished the bottom of Messines
    Trigger down, torn apart by the whirlpool of flame
    10, 000 were killed, colonel said

      The 10,000 is one of the famous Myths of Messiness. The number killed by the 19 mines (not one single explosion) alone is estimated by the British to be far lower not likely more than 500-2,000.

      one of the deadliest and most tragic conflicts in human history... 1914 instead treats the subject matter with the utmost respect and care
      instead of glorifying it, they just tell you the bitter honest truth about WWI
      There is no glory in war, only death, misery, blood and anguish, and 1914 understands this completly, not like Sabaton which makes war sound like it's a fun jolly good time...
