William wallace was the lowland rebellion. Andrew de moray was the highlands, coming from avoch, my home village just about 20 min drive from inverness. The two joined forces for the war of independence. :-)
Id be impressed if they found about andrew de moray though as thatd take a TON of research to even come to the name far less history. According to lore in the area they rearmed and trained there
I love how they've interwoven a fantasy universe with unicorns and dark wizards with actual places in Scotland. Questlords of Inverness Ride, Unicorn Invasion of Dundee, Siege of Dunkeld, etc. I'm a fan of Rhapsody / Rhapsody of Fire, ever since I heard "Emerald Sword" and I can recognise a lot of similarities between that kind of power metal and Gloryhammer.
Black_Phantom That's the same for me, that's why I decided to put these lyrics video. In this way everyone can appreciate this absolutely awesome album;)
Just realized that this song mentions "the power of the hoots," obviously referring to the hollywood hootsman, from their other song Don't know why that was so important to me but oh well
Angus is only the prince in the 2nd and 3rd album but it refers to hoot as long throughout both and is in my opinion who the three albums were actually about. Just from angus' point of view.
My mind came up with this a few re-listenings later. I've no idea if a full version is possible but there's something funny about it. The Desk-lords of Inverness! Lawyers of power steel who hear galactic cry Unicorn defenders, unafraid to die
The Questlords of Inverness ride Far far away, to the ultimate light Travelling throughout the time The Questlords of Inverness ride To Galactic Fortress! They storm the universe in interstellar time From the town of Inverness beneath the ancient sign Warriors of power steel who hear galactic cry Unicorn defenders, unafraid to die Zargothrax is riding on, with crystal key in hand Nobody can stop him, bring death across the land Questlords of Inverness, the time has come to fight Ride to space battle with brave highland's might Questlords arise, fight til we die For the honour, the glory, the pride Ride on the wind and hail to the king When the Questlords of Inverness ride Mighty heroes quest to Mars to fight the demon horde Undead force of terror, will fall beneath the sword Raise the flag of Inverness, rally all the troops Fight for Dundee and the power of Hoots Unicorn! Show me the way Lead me to the ultimate fortress Unicorn! Reveal the truth Of the ancient crystal galaxy
I think going with the albums its 3 legends from beyond the Galactic terror>1Tales from the Kingdom of Fife>2 Rise of the Chaos Wizards (but iam not 100% sure)
There are two quests, the one described in Tales From the Kingdom of Fife is that of Angus McFife I saving Fife from Zargothrax’s undead unicorn army in 992, while Apocalypse 1992 describes Angus McFife XIII trying to save the intergalactic empire of Fife from Zargothrax in 1992 while legends from beyond the galactic terror vortex is Angus XIII tracking Zargothrax to an alternate universe in the past where he must defeat him and save an alternate Fife.
Nah. This is about the Intergalactic Kingdom of Fife and Unst and its fight against the evil wizard Zargothrax, the bane of Auchtermuchty and Cowdenbeath.
@@BurningDogFace I dont know if win is the right word. Every victory so far, with the exception of album 1, has been pyrrhic in the most extreme ways possible.
Keyboards question: I am a guitar player interested in adding some cool keyboard stuff to my music. That being said, I literally know NOTHING about it, other than I would be using a midi controller & software, like Native Instruments... Like the final run at the end of the song when it is the keyboard all alone, what is THAT sound? Thanks in advance! HOOTS!
BestGardevoirLAS Yes they do. And this Album is the sequel of the previous one: "Tales from the Kingdom of Fife". Listen the full story, you'll not regret;)
they often have questionable word combinations, just to tick all the "cool word" boxes :D dvarves with crystal laser hammers, undead unicorns, forged from lasers entwined in a star.. stuff like that^^
i cannot, for the life of me, remember the name of the character on the far left of the picture. like, i remember everyone else but who the shit is he???
@@loone3100 Exactly :D he's just mad he drowned in liquid Ice I mean wouldn't you be mad too? he is misunderstood though being a dark sorcerer might have him being hunted :D
The FACT in this universe IS that Christopher Bowes is a FUCKING GENIUS!!!!
I was not ready for the “Questlords arise, fight ‘til we die, for the honour, the glory, the pride. Ride on the wind, and hail to the king, when the Questlords of Inverness ride.”
It was awesome
this must be one of the cheesiest, most DnD like Metal Band ever ... and it is glorious! To the Galactic Fortress!
then listen to twillight force
Rhapsody, bitch please.
Yes.
Then the Questlords of Inverness arrived
Death from above made the sorcerer bleed!
I Can't Believe It's Not ButterSquids!
Coming down from the Volcano side!
From the mists, a shape, a sub takes form...
We Remember..
In 1992..
The night Dunkeld was freed,
We make the death knight of crail explode!
@@ronyar7900 And the silence of Dundee is about to drift into a storm

They are here to free the kingdom from Lord Zargothrax
"Raise the flag of Inverness and rally all the troops" has so much power and energy!
It could be an hidden tribute to William Wallace or something like that.
William wallace was the lowland rebellion. Andrew de moray was the highlands, coming from avoch, my home village just about 20 min drive from inverness. The two joined forces for the war of independence. :-)

If anything would maybe culloden but even that's a stretch
@@rolandandfriends7734soz for late reply but itd be more to do with stirling or falkirk
"Journey to mars to fight the demon horde"
*Doomslaying Intensifies*
never thought there would be such an epic song about my home town
hollowchains When i arrive in Inverness one day,i will play this song.You are so lucky to have such awesome band
Aye. It is pretty weird hearing a song about home...
You're from the galactic fortress? How does it look like?
Inverness is also my current hometown 😂😂😂 well, black isle but still haha
I love how they've interwoven a fantasy universe with unicorns and dark wizards with actual places in Scotland. Questlords of Inverness Ride, Unicorn Invasion of Dundee, Siege of Dunkeld, etc.
I'm a fan of Rhapsody / Rhapsody of Fire, ever since I heard "Emerald Sword" and I can recognise a lot of similarities between that kind of power metal and Gloryhammer.
I love Christopher Bowes just hamming it up and looking like he's genuinely having fun as Zargothrax in the picture!
"to the galactic fortress" *circle pit opens and runs wild*
+Leander Michael A Gloryhammer circle pit would be like a massive space battle
Everyone knows their circle pits are just a bunch of people fighting with toy lightsabers.
actually started a circle pit at RHZ16 to this song -> was awesome
10/10 song with a 15/10 intro.
These colorful lyrics make it even more epic. :D
Thanks m8!^-^
if you liked this video you should watch "apocalypse 1992", I think is much better;)
guau tiene el mismo gusto que yo gally es la mejor jaja.
I love how Angus sometimes forgets that the "W" in "sword" is silent.
Scottish accent
fun fact, the dark wizard zagrothrax is the lead singer from alestorm.
Chris (Zargothrax) is a huge part of the song writing too, he's awesome.
He has to maintain himself while he practices his sorcery after all.
Dark magic doesn't come cheap
@@PRODAt3 But piracy is a crime and crime doesnt pay
@@ashketshum7209 and we go home poor at the end of the day
And a band about a plate of baked beans
Did anyone else start head banging and playing invisible drums after "To Galactic Fortress"? I did!
I did, too.
TheArchitectOfDreams I was the whole song. y weren't u? lol.
probably different headphones make you hear different things better
....also, drugs
I didnt know D&D metal was a thing
I mean I knew these guys before but I didnt realize they had a main theme for their songs.
I swear these guys have most over the top lyrics.
When i hear this song, there always comes the Bretonnian faction from Warhammer to my mind.
Zargothrax is riding on with crystal key in hand,
nobody can stop him bring death across the land!!!
I
same here :-)
Black_Phantom That's the same for me, that's why I decided to put these lyrics video. In this way everyone can appreciate this absolutely awesome album;)
same the more i listen to it, the more i like it
first time i didnt pay attention to lyrics much, i didnt realize how brilliant they are!
Death and piracy.
This album is better than the first one.
'Mighty heroes quest to Mars to fight the demon horde'
A little reference to Doom?
Kvothe The Bloodless The way this band is you could literally find 1000 references per song. It's just the way they are
Of course is a reference to Doom, my boy.
Hmm, and I thought of Warhammer 40k and the Adeptus Mechanicus fighting Daemons of Chaos
It's what you want it to be.
Perhaps Doom is a reference to Gloryhammer.
Mighty heroes quest to mars to fight the demon horde,undead force of terror will fall beneath the sword
SO POWERFULL
Mighty heroes quest to Mars to fight the demon horde
*Doom Slayer has joined the chat*
Just realized that this song mentions "the power of the hoots," obviously referring to the hollywood hootsman, from their other song
Don't know why that was so important to me but oh well
You will know when you hear
When you meet this man, Im sure you'll understand
IN HOOTS WE TRUST
@@logar3265 BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY KING OF UNST
Angus is only the prince in the 2nd and 3rd album but it refers to hoot as long throughout both and is in my opinion who the three albums were actually about. Just from angus' point of view.
I think this is my favorite song from the album.
I want to play a D&D adventure in this universe. It would be soooooo cool! Anyone agree?
yes
Look into the retroverse
What is stopping you? I did it, so you can do it too.
I could set this song in infinite loop and never get tired of it!
My mind came up with this a few re-listenings later. I've no idea if a full version is possible but there's something funny about it.
The Desk-lords of Inverness!
Lawyers of power steel who hear galactic cry
Unicorn defenders, unafraid to die
Akira Satou be like
Really is a tragedy somebody decided blowing these guys up with an Infinity Bomb and wiping them out of the timeline was a good idea.
They were such a big threat to Zargothrax he had to
I love how you made all this so colorful! Subscribed! Keep on noble soldier!
The Questlords of Inverness ride
Far far away, to the ultimate light
Travelling throughout the time
The Questlords of Inverness ride
To Galactic Fortress!
They storm the universe in interstellar time
From the town of Inverness beneath the ancient sign
Warriors of power steel who hear galactic cry
Unicorn defenders, unafraid to die
Zargothrax is riding on, with crystal key in hand
Nobody can stop him, bring death across the land
Questlords of Inverness, the time has come to fight
Ride to space battle with brave highland's might
Questlords arise, fight til we die
For the honour, the glory, the pride
Ride on the wind and hail to the king
When the Questlords of Inverness ride
Mighty heroes quest to Mars to fight the demon horde
Undead force of terror, will fall beneath the sword
Raise the flag of Inverness, rally all the troops
Fight for Dundee and the power of Hoots
Unicorn! Show me the way
Lead me to the ultimate fortress
Unicorn! Reveal the truth
Of the ancient crystal galaxy
No offense, but... Is this necessary for this particular video?
Congrats, but this is a lyrics video lol
What if you have roommates or something and you're afraid they'll judge you for watching colorful science fantasy lyric videos?
@@redforest9269 Judge them for not watching colourful science fiction lyric videos
@@firstconsul7286 What if they get mad and murder you?
0:47 THAT GUITAR SOLO!!! :0
Many bands claim to be more than just music. Gloryhammer are. Hail Hoots!
This is the Gloryhammer equivalent of Winged Hussars
Change my mjnd
If the Winged Hussars were wiped from the timeline of our world, then maybe.
Winged hootsars my friend
That would be the undead unicorn invasion of dundee, sire.
I wont because i agree
i actually need to know the full timeline of MacFife's quest
there is a wiki about it somewhere^^
I think going with the albums its 3 legends from beyond the Galactic terror>1Tales from the Kingdom of Fife>2 Rise of the Chaos Wizards (but iam not 100% sure)

questing in nostalrius listening this ♥
Are you planning on making lyric video’s of the new album? Because these are amazing!
I love that Inverness is a 40k people town just like my town.
I just love the cheese. Power metal for life! \m/
Oh god! Its amazing! Lirics is 11/10!
Excellent ! merci pour toutes tes vidéos ! j'adore
Zargothrax for President 2020 🎸🎸🎸
Robert Armitage still better than trump.
Lets not get political now.
No.
Angus Mcfife for President 2020
We could do so much worse. I want to learn from him.
Ik this is 2 years old. But in the new ( 3rd album) album, zargothrax is the emperor of dundee
To Galactic Fortress!
I dig this. It's weird, but it sounds awesome!
Unicorn! Reveal the truth of the ancient crystal galaxy!
When Winged Hussards arrived !!!! 😃
-Loki - god DAMMIT CARL
-Loki - Imagine Gloryhammer and Sabaton have a tour! It would be intergalactic panzer battalion warfare against the deamon horde and night witches
5ar you. . .
Your creativity knows no bounds
Dj11o9er You can say it leads up to space :D
Two Galactic Forces! It sounds like that. Wish it was.
Oh my god Angus McFife, PLEASE get a freakin' beard like EVERYONE ELSE.
GrumpleStilskin his beard is the Hammer of Glory.
Nuff said
GrumpleStilskin That's Angus McFife the 13th
I want to be the Hollywood Hootsman
His beard was so powerful it left his face and rode into batt... no, excuse, SPACE BATTLE.
So what, this is like... Space Scotland?
Nah. This is about the Intergalactic Kingdom of Fife and Unst and its fight against the evil wizard Zargothrax, the bane of Auchtermuchty and Cowdenbeath.
It's kind of like Warhammer 40,000, except that Scotland is the most important place in the entire universe, and the good guys tend to win.
@@BurningDogFace I dont know if win is the right word. Every victory so far, with the exception of album 1, has been pyrrhic in the most extreme ways possible.
@@belisarius6949 Don't forget he's the Archfoe of the QuestLords of Inverness
@@BurningDogFace Also the good guys arent objectively evil
The opening is nothing short of spectacular.
hmmm strangely getting the feeling akin to when the rohirim decide to aid gondor and ride to minas tirith :O
The Edgelords of Internet Ride... to the UA-cam comments!
Everytime I see the guy who is Zargothrax, I keep seeing Mike Portnoy
+CavemanJesus4Life It's Chris from Alestorm
dranstwo2000
I know, its that he looks like Portnoy
I'll be honest, It didn't register in my mind till this comment.

Just let Doom Guy deal with the demons.
Quest Lords of Inverness vs. Doom Slayer?
When the Questlord of England is right!
Thanks to you, I've kept hearing it this way every since you wrote this. Curse you...
but Inverness is a just a small town in scotland, i think its more hilarious the way it is

Do all the songs of this album tell a story?
BestGardevoirLAS Yes they do. And this Album is the sequel of the previous one: "Tales from the Kingdom of Fife".
Listen the full story, you'll not regret;)
Seems like a complete story on 1 album as opposed to a complete story in a book.
afaik all of their albums are telling one story :)
Great!
I want to ride to galactic fortress \m/
How to gloryhammer: add a sci-fi word to a fantasy word and hope it means something.
The Plasma Warlock approves of this message.
How rude!
they often have questionable word combinations, just to tick all the "cool word" boxes :D dvarves with crystal laser hammers, undead unicorns, forged from lasers entwined in a star.. stuff like that^^
oh my..
I hope they come n play it at Hootanannys like
A greek man who probably has a neck beard introduced me to these guys
Lazy Guy Haha.
i cannot, for the life of me, remember the name of the character on the far left of the picture. like, i remember everyone else but who the shit is he???
no idea, maybe dwarven king, or that demon of 18th hell dimension from last song?
He is Ralathor. He doesnt appear on the second album, but in the first one he led Angus and the Barbarian Warrior of Unst to Zargothraxs lair.
THANK YOU!!!!!
No problem.
Πασχαλης Μπανδας Actually he appears near the end of Apocalypse 1992 to tell the Hootsman that Kor-Viliath is about to wake
What are some other bands like this one?
Alestorm does for pirates what this does for dnd
Twilight Force
Rhapsody of Fire is the closest thing.

THEBRAINLESS ONE in apocalypse 1992 he does say he’ll “liberate the multiverse from slavery and fear”
