      Kia Ora fellow Kiwi!! So SO proud to see some Aotearoa talent on here. Geebz, you have to react to 'Blindspott' another amazing New Zealand metal band! "S.U.I.T" "Phlex" and "Nil by mouth" are all great songs, Phlox especially holds a special place in a lot of Kiwis hearts. It's one of their slower, more emotive songs and is commonly played at funerals of Kiwis taken too soon.

    I would like to introduce you to three boys from New Zealand, Lewis De Jong (guitar/vocals), Henry De Jong (drums/vocals) & Ethan Trembath (bass/vocals) At the time this video was done Lewis & Ethan were 16 & Henry was 18. They have won so many awards, but their most prized achievement was playing at Wacken Open Air Festival. They achieved this goal when they played on the Wasteland Stage in 2018 (Henry was 18, Lewis & Ethan were 16). The reviews of that festival praised these 3 boys as one of the top acts to play that year & the best to ever play on the Wasteland stage. They formed the band when Lewis was 8 & Henry was 10 in 2010. I believe Ethan joined the band in 2012 when he was 12. I would suggest "Ru Ana Te Whenua" with the closed caption turned on. The rhythm of the song makes a whole lot more sense if you understand what they are singing. So many other reactors have not done so & are very confused by the rhythm. I would also suggest "Hypocrite", the video is in english & shows how young they were when they did this song. Lewis & Ethan were 12 & Henry was 14. If you really enjoy this band, might I suggest that you take a look at some of the documentaries done about them, because of their youth, their talent & their use of the Maori language. You can find all their videos & documentaries on their UA-cam channel. Thank you, for doing this video of this outstanding young band.

    These guys opened the main stage on either the Saturday or Sunday at Download Festival in the UK one year. There must've been about 1,000 hung-over people just wandering around the main arena, then these unknown, skinny little while kids just took to the stage and unleashed THIS. A thousand jaws just dropped, and a midday moshpit broke out. It was absolutely epic.

    The wind sound comes from the Pūrerehua. It can be made of bone, wood or stone, they are blade-like and swing on a long cord producing a loud, deep whirling that can be heard from a distance. A rapid spinning motion will start the music of the Purerehua'a song as it rotates and flutters. Uses vary from luring lizards, summoning rain, communicating and attracting a soul mate

    Great choice. Have to say that because I am a Kiwi. All about a legendary battle between two warring Maori tribes. One of which was ruled by cannibal chieftainesses.

      you can only perform like this when you truly are in touch with the music you're playing. This is known as "being in the flow" or "in the zone", or in correct terms, hyperfocused. I tell you there's no rush like it, no drug on this planet, when you get that feeling, and the more people you have as an audience, the more it fuels you. That's why these kids probably looked like naturals. The hard part for artists is being in this state consistently. So far, all the videos I've seen of these guys are on point, I'd love to see them continue like this, and I hope to see them live as soon as all this covid shite dies down. 🤘

    Hey Geebez, glad you finally got this, that noise you heard is a Māori wind instrument called a Pūrerehua, you can see a demonstration of how it works here ua-cam.com/video/xLWcyk8wRqE/v-deo.html
    The song is a war chant, and the boys ancestors were part of the battle they were depicting in the video - they also had family members in the video. They ate their enemies to dishonour them, which is what the song title means. The repeating part you heard in the chorus translates to 'This is the work of Tūmatauenga' - who is the Māori god of war.

    I like how you touch on the "journey" of humanity through time, all of the things its taken to carve out our own niche in nature and survive. That's why I love ambient music, particularly from the likes of Carbon based Lifeforms, Astropilot, and Unusual Cosmic Process. It puts into perspective the emotions, ambitions, and energy of not only humanity but every species that has struggled in the eons that have passed on our planet, and even beyond into the cosmos. Kind of like the ocean.

    I haven't heard this song in forever! Good to hear it again with new ears and different perspective! I saw someone else below suggest it - and I have to agree, you should definitely look into Heilung. My personal favorite is Alfadhirhaiti from the LIVE, Lifa performance.

    The best thing about Alien Weaponry is they absolute pull this off live with amazing energy. Saw them live late last year here in Wellington NZ and got to hear a few of their new unreleased songs live and they were totally badass!

    It's called a Pūrerehua, it can be made of bone, wood or stone, they are blade-like and swing on a long cord producing a loud, deep whirling that can be heard from a distance. A rapid spinning motion will start the music of the Purerehua'a song as it rotates

    Glad that you got around to this song; the instrument you're thinking of is a bullroarer. It's over 20,000 years old - being used from Africa, through Ancient Greece and into the Americas.
    It's used prominently here in Australia - among the Aboriginals - and yes, even back in my homeland of New Zealand.

    I'm definitely checking these guys out. I'm getting Sepultura flashbacks (Max days, Chaos AD or Roots). Very nice. Sepultura's "Kaiowas (Tribal Jam)" (studio or acoustic version) is a good example of cultural music and metal meshed together. It'd be a good TBT post. Still here, btw🤙🏼and found you on IG😎Thank you for these posts🖖🏼

    Totally different dynamic, but when you talk about that visceral ancestral connection it makes me think of Eivør’s Trøllabundin. Always cuts straight through my soul when I hear it. Especially the live outdoor version she did.
    And yes, it’s the bullroarer you’re thinking of.

    Check out Heilung's song Krigsgaldr from their album Lifa. They hit on a lot of the cultural notes you touched on. They call their music "amplified history" and use instruments and costuming to reflect their ancestors and ancient origins. Their music is all based off ancient Scandinavian stone carvings or the old eddas etc. Knowing your spiritual leanings I think youd really dig them.
    That and their music is out of this world and unlike anything else ive ever heard.
    Thanks for the videos Geeb I look forward to em for my breaks at work every day, they really help me mellow out on stressful days !

    Congrats on the upcoming anniversary!
    As per your instructions, I'll recommend one of their newest songs off latest album Tangaroa (the title track Tangaroa!) but here's a few other recommendations of Kiwi bands I've also seen live a bunch of times and love! Hopefully they also get on your radar 😉
    Jakob (e.g. Blind Them With Science, Malachite) - three piece with no vocals, have opened for Tool when they play NZ and have very atmospheric loopy layered slow build songs that build to a crescendo and just get you into a spacy mindset!
    Beastwars (e.g. Damn The Sky, Lake Of Fire) - a bunch of grizzled old fullahs with CHONKY vocals and riffs... Obey The Riff is their motto!
    Shihad (e.g. My Minds Sedate, Think You're So Free) - NZs most iconic rock band, started heavy, veered into pop rock, but have come back heavy and always kill it live!
    Decortica (e.g. Ennui, Eros) - these guys are like the dark dirty version of Muse and one of my favourite live bands I've seen in NZ. Singers side project Domes (e.g. Malady) is pretty damn cool but released just before Covid so never got to see live.
    Cairo Knife Fight (e.g. Big Face, Origin of Slaves) - two piece where they both sing, they both use loops on everything they play, guitar drums and bass (drum plays bass synth on his spare hand hah!), very cool high energy groovy rock. Unfortunately original guitarist recently passed away but new form of band with former Black Eyed Peas guitarist has been making new music in last few years in US, and he has a very crunchy in your face style.

    He taua, He taua!
    It's the same, It's the same!
    Waewae tapu takahi te ara taua
    Holy feet tread the same path
    Ka hopungia e maha nga upoko
    It catches many heads
    Ka hopungia e maha taurekareka
    Many were captured by slaves
    E mahi nga mahi a Tūmatauenga

    Of rape

    Anei nga tohu a Tūmatauenga
    Here are the signs of Tūmatauenga
    He pakanga nunui mo te whakautu
    It’s a huge battle for response
    Tae mai nga tūpuna mo te whakaāwhina
    The ancestors came to help
    Kia mau nga Tohunga mo te whakakarakia
    Hold the Priests for incantation
    E mahi nga mahi a Tūmatauenga

      Tūmatauenga, the main Māori god of war, is one of the sons of Ranginui (sky father) and Papatūānuku (earth mother). In tradition, Tūmatauenga sought to solve conflict by warfare and was the deity of humans.

    There's a few ways you could manage your list of requests - I personally like Excel spreadsheets and you could include the date in a second column so you could sort by older requests. There's also the option of using a kanban-tyle board (Trello is my favorite). You'd assign each request to a card, you can create buckets such as "Requested" and "Done" with dates and even color coding you could use for genres.
