    Thank you for the video ! It is so interesting for us to see the reaction of people who don't speak really french, because big part of our humor is french humor.
    For example, in Kammthaar, the bridge's lyrics are parody of an old pop french singer, and surely you couldn't understand that, but still, you though the video is funny, so that's really cool !!
    You were right about the lyrics, especially the "from the breakfast till war", it is indeed the true meaning of the german lyrics : we are aware there is no meaning, but it just sounded so cool in german !! ;)
    We are gonna share your video on our page to show this to our audience, it will be fun !
    By the way, check out our new video, it is japanese metal parody, and it's a manga !
    See ya dude ! :)

      I am so glad you liked it, and I appreciate the share. For me, I do love to know the meaning behind the lyrics, but I also love music just for the sake of music. It was an absolutely fantastic track and I loved every minute of it, and I shall most definitely be checking out more of your material!

    It's quite complicated to explain puns in French. Ultra vomit refers to a French song sung by Marc Lavoine, the title of which is: "Elle a les yeux revolver".
    The refrain of this song is:
    "Elle a les yeux revolver, elle a le regard qui tue."
    It's mean:
    "She has pocket gun eyes, she has the look that kills"
    Ultra vomits to transform this pasasge there into
    "Il a l'essieu revolver
    Il a d'heureux garde-boues
    J'ai passé la première
    Je vais rouler comme un fou"
    "It has the pocket gun axle
    It has happy mudguards
    I engaged first gear
    I'm going to drive like a madman"
    In French the manner in which one pronounces "les yeux" (the eyes) and "l'essieu" (the axle) is almost similar.
    For the sentence "It has happy mudguards", in french "Il a d'heureux garde-boues" that doesn't mean his mudguards are happy.
    The way we pronounce "d'heureux garde de boue" in French is a play on the word "regard" (the gaze).
    This sentence should be understood in the following way: "he has the look..." "Il a le regard..." and not "It has happy mudguards".
    It's still a play on words, on the pronunciation of words in French.
    Most French people know Marc Lavoine's song, that's why those who speak French and know the song, easily understand the reference and the puns.

    The bridge is actually a callback to a cheesy French pop song "elle a les yeux revolver" ("she has revolver eyes"). The band often makes such silly out-of-place references that might sadly be lost on foreign listeners ;) but even setting that aside, the parodies are always on point, especially on the last album "Panzer Surprise" ("Takoyaki", "Calojira", "Pink Pantera", "Evier Metal"...)

    • @PaulTheEldritchCat
      @PaulTheEldritchCat 5 років тому

      My thoughts exactly!
      I sing in an amateur band and Ultra Vomit is a huge inspiration. For years we've sung "Je collectionne les canards (vivants)" [= I collect (alive) ducks] which is a parody of SUM41-esque pop punk. It always goes nicely in a set of songs, and people realy appreciate the silliness of it.
      We started working on Kammthaar recently, it's great!

      You are completely wrong. Like the whole song, the title is a joke. It is not Kammtaar, but Kamm + Haar, which is german and significates comb + hair... In fact you will unterstand the jokes if you have mixed culture, french and german.

      @@jareinful eh. Kammthar (or more exactly, camtar) is definitively old fashioned french slang for camion (truck/lorry), and the song is clearly about a truck. The french lyrics are only about said truck going "vroom vroom". Don't overthink it.

  • @Chabarnacle

    UV shared your video on their facebook page ! I didn't actually know your channel but I'm really glad they shared it and I subscried to you ;)
    UV is indeed a parodic band and most of their musics include french culture in it, like "Il a les yeux révolver" from Kammthaar is a reference to the famous french singer Marc Lavoine "Elle a les yeux révolver". It's just super silly and most french metalhead love it. You should definitely check out their stuff and particularly "Évier Metal", it's great ! For the translations you should use deepl.com, it's a lot better than google translate and may help you to understand the meaning (if there is any!) of their songs.
    Happy birthday from France ! :D

The pre order gave me a a track to listen to, while I wait and I love it! It's titled Fallen. The band is from Switzerland. They're a mix of trance and melodeath. Female fronted, she does cleans and harsh vocals, as well they have a male vocalist that does harsh vocals.

    • @jareinful
      @jareinful 4 роки тому +1

      Hey, the reference is a word play. Les yeux revolver is the romantic song (revolver eyes), but l‘essieu revolver in Kamthaar significates revolver axle (of the truck), with a double s, wich imitates the german accent for yeux, which is a deep dive joke destinated to french people.

  • @Galehann
    @Galehann 5 років тому +3

    About Ultra Vomit, I think you need to understand that there is some french references you just cannot get if you're not french... like he quotes some french variety singers by singing their songs in there and twisting their lyrics a bit. Also most of the german parts doesn't mean anything, it's just sort of made up sentences with "comonly known" or "oftenly heard" typical german words. The fact that those lyircs doesn't makes sense at all is kind of their humor actually. I think you should look into some of their other english songs to better understand their style without having to get the french references. "Morbid Cocker" for exemple is the classic Joe Cocker hit played... Morbid Angel style! It's brilliant.

  • @Zepeg78
    @Zepeg78 5 років тому +1

    My 2 cents... "Camion" is the translation of "truck". French slang transforms it to "camtar". Turning it German is pretty simple: You double some letters and change "C" in "K" for instance, or add a dieresis (just like in Motörhead). I recommend also their parody of Maximum the Hormone called Takoyaki ua-cam.com/video/Z-XrwCvRnko/v-deo.html UV is a real phenomenon in french-speaking countries (including Canada, Swizterland, Belgium so far). Cool music made by cool guys! Vive UV!

    If you want other silly bands, there is Nanowar of Steel which is the Italian Power Metal version of Ultra Vomit. They are really really good and funny.
    In the USA, there is Psychostick, who are making the best stupid Nü-Metal I've ever heard.
    In Québec, you can look for Mononc' Serge & Anonymus, it's a combo between a Folk-Rock humoristic singer (Mononc' Serge) and a Thrash Metal band (Anonymus), they've done two albums together and that's quite surprising. Just check their videoclips, you'll understand.
    And in France, there are some other little bands like Les Trois Fromages (Punk/Rock), David TMX (Metal/Hardcore) and my own band, Moulk, which was influenced by all of the above and more x) (this is absolutely not a way to tell you to check my stuff, I am not good enough compared to the other ones xD)

    In France "Camtar" is kind of a slang word to talk about trucks, so "KAMMTHAAR" is just a made up word that in French sound like "camtar" but by the way they wrote it it looks like it's a German word, so the whole song is pretty much about a man's love for his truck xD

    so first, Ultra vomit means ultra puke ... yep, also one of their really old song was "i love collecting dukes ... alive", and all of their songs are in the same humoristic vein. Sadly most of the joke mean you have a basic french culture / music knowledge and its hard to retranscribe in other language. But check their videos, music is great, humor is great even is some part lost the videos makes up for it.

    Ultra Vomit have cult status in France. I would listen to them over any Motorhead, Cannibal Corpse or Iron Maiden any day, not only because they are more modern, but because their parodies of these respective bands are just as good as the originals. Such a shame you can't understand the very french humour, but I think you could still get some of them, such as Takoyaki (parody of Babymetal and Maximum The Hormone) or Evier Metal (parody of Iron Maiden). Both are hilarious
