KEEP MY CONTINENTS TEA OUT YA F%%%%%ING MOUTH!
Fin: It was a European joke...
KEEP MY CONTINENTS TEA! OUT YA F%%^^%%NG MOUTH!
Finn you should review zick zack from Rammstein!
Why should a German guy rapping in German not sound German?!? 🤷🏼♂️
Something about it sounds EXACTLY like I, as an American, would imagine.
69 likes…NICE
As a german I can say that this band gets hart gefeiert hier, if you die Musik magst.
A band that does not take themself to ernst, a band that you can blast from your Lautsprecher on high Lautstärke and have a gute Zeit. That's all.
No buddy knows what that means bud
@@rylanlittle261 people who knows some German understands what he means. Like myself but I'm from Sweden where we learn German in school.
What he says is that electric callboy don't take themselves to seriously and a band that you can blast from your stereo on high volume and just have a great time.
@@AlexaOnWheels exactly
@@AlexaOnWheels oh thank you, thats cool. I was just frustrated trying to read broken english lol
Nice to have still some code language Americans can't understand..
Electric callboy is just a band made for partying and having fun and i like that about them. Great guys
They’re basically everything that Atilla wanted to be, and failed.
@@untitled568 then u have boring friends my man
@@untitled568 you probably can't imagine going to a house party. Hah
there's so many people mad at these guys, cause they are introducing metalcore to a broader audience that is not just fun hating and gatekeeping metalheads.
@@yavantii3615 ^this
I always thought rap was about the delivery and flow of the lyrics, just because it's not english doesn't mean it's bad
You know the Germans have a deep history with rap and hiphop, right? Kraftwerk basically gave their beats to Afrika Bambaataa and history was made.
Tht was in the last 80 raps was already poppping in nyc
No one cares. And you know why? Cause 'americans' know everything. Invented everything, and are the superior people. Because of that
@@CLozs Not sure when, where or why rap began. Kraftwerk was 1970 though. Autobahn in 1973.
@@xxJOKeR75xx I don’t know autobahn but kraftwerks is not rap
Bushido and Sido are great
And Eurovison chose NOT to let them compete?!
Nope, Germany chose to not select them (or the organization in charge of this I guess), Eurovision has no say on who the countries chose to send
As a German I am disappointed
Germany really didn't pick them cause they're not "radio friendly". I wish I was making that up but we Germans are really this stupid
@@Pippus4 why?!?
The main german ESC broadcaster and some radio stations decided that the song is fun, the band is great and very professional but "sadly the song is not radio suitable". It was "Pump it". So EC wasn't even competing in the german pre-selection.🤪
**hears only 2 bars of the verse**
"BAN EUROPEANS FROM RAPPING"
😂😂 Never change, Finn.
2 bars is more than enough!
@@FinnMckentyPRMBA Like a trve elite Black Metal Teenager, who is convinced that everything is scum but Mayhem live in Leipzig . 😄 If you're not into German Rap - fine. How could you, if you don't understand the lyrics... But don't just bash it if you're not into it.
@@crimsonidol5172 It is a joke, for Christ's sake 🙄
@@crimsonidol5172 And I thought that it is widely agreed upon that Mayhem live in Leipzig is the only good music. I despise everything else!
@@muenchhausenmusic But not a good one. Ban straight edge HC Guys from Comedy!
I’ve accepted I’m in the minority, but I love European rap and hip hop. Especially music with french rappers or grime combined with classic 140bpm dubstep or garage instrumentals. I’m here for the hate😂
I get that they are milking it hugely, but the fact is they keep pulling it off. 9/10 banger!
Finn, why do you hate European music? 😂 honestly this Euro pop/metalcore mashup they’re doing is amazing and all about having a good time and I’m here for it. They just announced a tour too, let’s gooo euro squad 💃💃🙌🙌
If a band doesn't come from one of Finns favorite music scenes he doesn't understand how anyone can see them as legit. All Midwest bands are racist republicans making music that only racist republicans enjoy. Also if a band doesn't have any roots or ties to punk then they can not be considered real musicians. Therefore European (besides death metal) and Asian bands (besides pop) are really just posing. Why are they even playing real instruments when they can't name 10 American punk bands?
I still watch Finn now and then but his gatekeeping and flip flopping is really nauseating at times.
Kevin, it seems like you might be hearing what you want to hear rather than what I actually say. I have consistently attacked the coastal liberal types who paint all midwesterners that way, and I'm also a conservative who lived in Ohio for 12 years. You seem a little angry, I hope whatever is going on gets better soon!
@@FinnMckentyPRMBA I seem a little angry? It seems like you might be hearing what you want to hear rather than what I actually said. Fun game, yea?
Apparently, shit's bad if it doesn't cater exclusively to American tastes. Obviously (or hopefully) Finn is baiting, but it's getting a bit tiresome.
@@evilfantasy69 Finn tried to pass the boof and you left him hanging.
As a huge fan of 90s German Hardcore (techno) and Rammstein back in college, I find this band amazingly enjoyable.
I'm glad that Electric Callboy didn't forget to put a bangin' donk on it.
Finn, calm down. A joke can be fun, and then annoys. How do you fit a praise for defending certain peoples integrity and taking what it feels like a jab at that point at others in one video? Move on man.
As a European, I think we produce great music, so I don't always agree with your opinion. But, you bring your arguments so fluent and on a funny way, it's impossible to get butthurt about it. Sometimes I think: "C'mon dude..."and then "eeehh he does have a point." I genuinely like your channel and your content so keep being yourself man!
Thank you! I’m just joking about europeans
@@FinnMckentyPRMBA i know.
Sometimes it still hurts a little bit though
😂
“It’s not enough he is German, he has to sound so German”
That’d be because he’s German, why would he try and falsify his own accent?
I was on the fence at first when I heard Pump It, but I'm 110% on the EC wagon now. Can't wait for the new LP!
Damn somehow I missed the lore behind his hatred for European music
Me as well. Or maybe I'm just too european for these jokes
It's not just the music, he seems to hate European people generally.
It's giving Dayman/Nightman from It's Always Sunny lol
Omg, I thought I was the only one!
Hard agree on the name change situation. I was super impressed by how the handled it. Very mature, kind guys who clearly just want to have fun and vape in spaceships.
Now some Euro-Corrections from a Canadian: German rap is on point and when the Turks do it, it sounds even more bad-ass. Germany is also thoroughly a coffee country. When I played cards with my great aunts in the German countryside, I was served coffee 120% of the time. Even when I was 12. They take their caffeine addiction as seriously as their rap over there.
Patrick is right. Coffee is much more popular in Germany. A study revealed that Germans drink 164 litres of coffee but only 64 litres of tea in a year. We´re not british!
@@hulluporo9067 don't tell that to the East Frisian people, they are totally a tea "nation"
@@SlashpLOder I know.
Thank you for reminding me about the existence of Put A Donk On It.
Yeah that’s fucking golden right there lol😎
yanno what ya wanna do with that right?
Thank you for the 2009 time warp
Your hate for Europe is getting real :D
Did you realize, that most Europeans don't even see themselves as "Europeans"? Luckily there's you to remind everybody of the circumstances.
Another fun fact: England is the only f'n place in Europe, were they prefer tea. In Asia they love it too. Ever heard of Italy (also Europe) and their coffee culture?
Yes, the European rap parts you showed were kinda cringe, but there is good stuff French banlieue (ghetto) rap is as real as it gets and German rapper Samy Deluxe has real skill.
To complete the circle. The best f'n guitarists come from Southern Spain (also Europe), gypsys playing flamenco. Compared to their skills every metal band is straight up kindergarten.
Anyway, love your content.
Keep up the good work.
And make a video about Machine Head. I'd love to hear your opinion on them.
Cheers,
A bearded European from Europe being European
Thank you! The new machine head song is solid
French rap sounds very good and as an Italian I think Italian rap has some very talented artists too
wasn't sure how they were going to pull off the name change, but it seems to have worked! Electric Callboy works much better with their style of music. Thankfully some of their fans provided a translation to the Germans parts. Hope this helps, sorry for the wall of text.

The first little bit of the melody in the chorus is so similar to Charlie Day's Nightman, it's so hard to not think that it's on purpose.
You should try to get these guys on your podcast
When I found out finch wasn’t the underrated warped tour band it made me sad. Callboy need to make it up to me by featuring Aqua in their next track.
Or even tAtU
I actually like that idea better than aqua!
Unrelated:
Did you know that the arguably BEST NU METAL ALBUM actually came from South Korea?
It is 'Ultramania' by Seo Taiji.
Finn, I know you'll enjoy the drumming a lot, drums were actually played by Josh Freese and Heff "The Machine" Holter, and they are fat as fuck!! The drums, I mean 😂
Seo Taiji is a music legend in Korea, everybody knows him there. He did everything from pop to this super heavy Nu Metal and is still active.
The lyrics deal with the frustration of the youth with the "stifling education system and lackluster economic perspective" (Wikipedia), so the guy actually had something to say as well.
Anyone who wants to give it a spin, make sure it's the re-recorded version from 2003 The cover is a completely red sun center left on black background, NO yellow or orange, that is the old and inferior version. Yes, this is one of the rare cases where re-recording actually made it better. There is a playlist on the channel "Seo Taiji - The Essential Seo Taiji".
Top 3 songs imo:
- Internet war (musically most interesting)
- Feel the soul (heaviest)
- Orange (dang cool riff, more hiphop influence)
Lukewarm take: If more people had done Nu Metal as well as Seo Taiji, the genre wouldn't have been shat on even half as much.
Cheers everybody!
probably not gonna happen, but it would be dope if Finn ever made a video dedicated to Seo Taiji, because it is such an amazing character and story. the guy basically laid the foundations to what we know as Kpop worldwide while having roots in the heavy metal scene and helping spread heavier music in East Asia.
That album is dope. Makes me wish I had known about it when I was a 13 year old nu-metal kid.
@@lexidarling I got introduced to it when I was 15, so lucky me 😊
Did you just check it out or did you get to know it just much later in life?
@@muenchhausenmusic I first listened to it maybe 5-6 years ago. As a kid in the late 90s/early 2000s I was mostly just into the surface level US nu-metal bands. UA-cam was a huge game changer for finding stuff I missed out on back then.
This is just metalcore Elektronik Supersonik and I love it.
Uk rapping comes from the reggae/soundsystem roots, which lead to the rave/jungle/ragga scene. It's separate from the US hip hop roots
my Finn drinking game is take a shot every time you hear the word "that" in the first minute of the video.
probably one of my favorite bands right now. cant wait to see them november 4th
its viva la elton john
I just saw these guys yesterday in Antwerp. Man, they know how to bring the party 👏🤘🥳
They not only make the song’s lyrics mean what they say, but they don’t insult their audience’s intellect by pretending to be smart
I can't believe I just watched a Finn McKenty video with a Blackout Crew reference.
The put a donk on it reference was so on point 😂
Last week I had an awfully frustrating and unnecessary discussion about ec's name change with some dude I met in a suburban youth center (the type of place you have to expect to get involved into this sort of situation). Defending their decision by mostly pleading for empathy and change of perspective to the inuit people's all he had to say that its just cancel culture and me being woke (though he didnt knew me like 15 minutes before) and after i decided to leave to catch my train he yelled after me that he's "not afraid" of calling them by their old name. I still was pissed off about that days after this evening. I just couldnt get over that so easily because i was so frustrated that there are people out there (especially in the metal scene) where it doesnt matter, how valid your point is and how calm you are, because all they do is yelling irrational stuff at you and not even listen to what you're saying.
The guy defending should of just walked away instead of get mad at you, I don't get the decision either but the emotions surrounding the name change are super toxic so asking to find out is a no go, Their name was fine for how long before now, and the inuit people's organization or whatever never spoke up with it being a problem ever so why? I mean good for them for cashing in their morality chips/ points to look good and then seem even better changing without anyone asking or complaining to take advantage of the times but whatever, its 2022 previously minor things are now 100 times bigger, and bigger picture is now small. I don't get it at all so I will just walk away and support from a distance or find a band I better understand and connect with as getting into it over something as meaningless and small as a bands name is dumb we can both disagree to agree and move on with our lives respectfully, quickly and efficently
Hopefully, this helps show the opposite perspective, its not malicious just confusion, annoyance, and then indifference though most get stuck on the annoyance part of human response
@@XvXMONSTERXvX I can imagine the points of the opposite site very well. Truth is, there are toxic people on both sides. On the one side, there really is toxic woke culture and on the other side there are butthurt fans who make a thing like some band changing their name a bigger deal as it actually is and even see their freedom of speech restricted by them.
I already wrote to someone, who blamed "I'll call them forever Es.... Callboy😩" that he sounds like a brat in the kindergarden. The band did the decicion and we have to eat it, if we like it or not.
" VIVA LA ELTON JOHN!!!"
I love how relatable your stuff is man 😂 “okay” as a response from my fiancé to my jokes and then her going back to Genshin Impact or Final Fantasy is a constant occurrence lmao I guess after seven years I need some new material lol
How do you enjoy and listening the song if you PAUSE EVERY TIME??????
"you should vape bro"
"fuck off cody"
Viva la elton john
All I can think of watching this is BTBAM Sun of Nothing "A SPAAAACEMAAAAAAAN THATS WHAT THEY SAY I AM"
Thanks for clearing that up, I was wondering if it was Eskimo Callboy. I like the new name too.
I am European and I must tell you, I'm huge fan of President of Metalcore and his channel. Great content!
Lol
Thank you! Sorry for all those consonants in your name
Eastern Europe once sold their vowels to Finland.
@@hulluporo9067 :D
-It's funny because it's true!
it is a reference of russian hard bass and finch (east german rapper) is refering him as a kosmonaut.
They said that the name change came from another band at a UK festival saying they wouldn’t play if they did. They’re playing Slam Dunk with Alexisonfire, got a feeling it was them who said it.
happy 4:20 bearded beloved dudes
Eskimo in itself is not a slur. The Eskimo are an Alaskan Native people. However, there's also Yupik, Tlingit, Athabaskan, and about 30 other tribes where Eskimo for some reason became a catchall. It'd be like calling all Lower 48 Native Americans Cherokee. So, there's that. The other issue is, much like the South Dakota Fighting Sioux, Native Americans shouldn't be your mascot. It's dehumanizing. And credit to Electric Callboy for not being assholes about when it was brought to their attention.
I actually like the part in "Nice" from We Butter The Bread With Butter where I think it translates to "why do rappers always rap like this, now".
This song reminds of of the old song Death to Distraction by At All Cost. One of the first hardcore type bands I heard to use poppy dance music and breakdowns back in the early 2000s
When the singer sings 'Spaceman', he sounds like Charlie from Always Sunny singing 'Day man'...
i´m on board with almost 95% of what you usually say BUT ignorance is saying that about europeans and rap...Actually most european languages are more rich and diverse than English by far...I am Spanish, I sing in English in my Punk band because I can speak it fluently and it sounds better for my ears but not with rap, dude...at the end all urban music worldwide comes in some way from rap and most relevant urban music nowadays is in Spanish so...i love you Finn but you have to stop those boomer opinions dude because they make you look funny and not in a good way
You know that English is a European language, right?
@@FinnMckentyPRMBA I know Finn, im not trying to bother here or be toxic at all. I know most of the time you´re just joking and being sarcastic and i laugh all the time with some cliches you bring in here, but with rap I think you have to double check that...and im no raphead but i think you might get what i say. Total respect, dude and my bad if i said it a bit rude.
@@jorgeindoor it’s just not true US rap is leagues ahead of Euro and UK. From the beats to the flows everything not US sounds 10 years behind
Finn, I really appreciate you posting these streaming vids so frequently. This is now one of my favorite channels :)
For some reason I find the thought of an Astronaut vaping hilarious
VIVA LA ELTON JOHN!
assuming a reference to rocket man.
That's metal!
it's no Hypa Hypa, but they can't all be. was still fun and good. and for the record, the UK is putting out some of the best rap ever right now.
The song should be called "Space Rave!"
you have no idea about german rap... like not the slightest
Not even a tiny bit
Well now you need president of Metalcore merch
Thanks for bringing 'Put a Donk On It' back to my attention, I've been trying to suppress it from my memory since the late 2000s.
Always wanted you to go
Into space, man 🎵🎶
Is this genre called Little Big Core?
Woah you calling out BTBAM Sun of Nothing? A spaceman. They say I am... a spaceman.
Still suggested to check a Brothers of Metal. If Electric Callboy make metalcore fun, they made power metal fun.
They are saying viva la Elton John because the song is similar name to rocket man by Elton John
Oh Finn, metalcore vocalists don’t even know what their lyrics are about 90% of the time
weird that he dont notice viva la elton john. it was clean english XD
i’ve said it before and i’ll say it again. funny finn is great
Thank you!
Me, after first couple of seconds of this video: Damn, didnt know Electric Callboy made a sixth installment of Astartes. Waiting for that Games Workshop cease and desist letter...
Dudes hair is so tall he could be mistaken as a cone head.
The Slipknot song 'Surfacing' is actually about the realization that there are 6 boobs on a cat on just 2 on an average female woman.
Love the Euro rap over Aussie hip hop, maybe it's the foreign factor making anything interesting. But have you heard the new Sabaton album... maybe there's a common problem here.
I noticed he still hasn't talked about the member change which caused the shift in the band.
I think a band that has a good amount of goofy is Avoid. They're damn good players and they don't take themselves super seriously in their music. With their more recent releases, it's both fun and heavy without being corny or gimmicky. I think they're a great band that Finn should check out if he hasn't already
Awesome video Finn!
Thank you!
The whole video is Star Wars cosplay mixed with halo and I love it
I tell my wife equally great jokes, and get the exact same response. They do say women I’ve a funny man but I think that is supposed to end with “until they marry them and have to deal with that bullshit for a lifetime”
Banned European music? But Enter Shikari and Sleep Token and Don Broco.... also, on rap specifically, Dave.
He doesn't really like enter shikari as far as I know...
Lmfaooo. I’ve always been a diehard defender of djent but when you said “I’d rather have this then another band full dudes with beards djenting in a colored room” I was like shhhhiiiiiit he is kinda right, that’s basically what every djent band is hahahaha
I wrote a song call "Cats". It's about public bathrooms. 🤣
Germans drink a LOT of coffee. From the source I can find, they drink 4x the coffee as Americans per capita. So the cup may well be coffee.
when the us rappers have learned how to build a good beat in 2022, we can continue talking😂
rappers don't craft the beats
Is there a video where you explain your issues with europeans? I remember you mentioning it already several times on your channel.
However I agree 100% on the european rap part.
Nope no video! They just tend to be kind of rude and easily offended
@@FinnMckentyPRMBA not like you tho bro…definitely no projecting
Even the title seems strange and i'm not suprised :p
FINCH is more of a DJ than a rapper, he just happens to do some verses over his songs. Hes definitely EDM/Trance.
he did stuff like rap am mittwoch in the past, he just changed his musical style since then.
his part here is actually deliberately goofy.
@@Cicatrizs I personally really enjoy his new stuff which is all I know him for. Thanks for clarifying!
your facts about europeans, its not even offensive...its a lack of knowledge xD
This actually kinda reminds me of Powerman 5000 with an edm twist
Finn, I would pay a full $5 for your rap mixtape.
I bet you could drop bars.
I feel like they're a band I wouldn't actively choose to listen to when I want to listen to actual music. More like I'd show the hypa hypa music video to someone who's never heard of them and be like, aren't they quirky and funny? And then after 1 and a half songs it's not that funny anymore and we listen to something else we actually like. Bloodhound Gang make mostly joke/goofy songs but I could listen to their albums on repeat and not get sick of them. But these guys, 1 song is my limit and I have to listen to something else.
"Violadores del verso" were a pretty good hip hop spanish band
I don't like everything they put out, but I really appreciate that they're not taking themselves too seriously and are having fun. If we can enjoy the music, why shouldn't the bands enjoy it as well?
the mowhawk omg
Finn out here disproving God with philosophical proofs while talking about German Metalcore. Impressive.
We will not go djently into the colored room!
Electric Callboy on podcast when?
Good idea actually!
i dont understand, why would he rap in english when hes german? rap especially is so dependent on the flow and pronounciation thats its just completely different in every language and if he doesnt normally rap in english (he doesnt), then id say itd be a pretty bold and probably bad move to suddenly change your whole language and flow for one song lmao :D im pretty sure youre joking in all the stuff youre saying here, at least i hope so - "europeans and rap doesnt work" is such a weird take considering theres extremely popular rap music in, im assuming, every european language other than english as well, there certainly in in german... O.O but i do get it is weird to hear rap in a language you dont understand - its hard to connect with anything rap is about after all; the lyrics, the flow, the culture specific references... i mean, these guys basically got extremely popular in the last year and a half by combining metalcore and...scooter, the german rave band. idk for me thats the coolest motherfucking thing ever lmao
Oh cmon not since Falco Rock Me Amadeus did we needed German Rap like this! This is great stuff! Lol.
Sounds like day man from its always sunny
0:54 In Europe there are a lot of goverment fundings for profesional artists
It definitely sounds like the spaceman put a donk on it.
I had a pretty fantastic day today but nothing will top hearing put a donk on it tops it all
