Masters of metal parody Nanowar Of Steel – program addictive hit “Helloworld.java” with new source code video

Masters of comedic heavy metal NANOWAR OF STEEL strike again with their latest track, “HelloWorld.java”, a standout addition to their legacy of absurdly brilliant music. This tongue-in-cheek masterpiece merges headbanging riffs with a programmer’s worst (and funniest) nightmares. The band’s new live album, XX Years Of Steel, drops this Friday, December 6 via Napalm Records!

Paying homage to the world of coding, “HelloWorld.java” combines sharp wit, infectious melodies, and clever references to programming culture. The lyrics, written in Java programming language, should be translated at the listener’s own risk. The brand-new song is now available on all streaming platforms and comes with a stunning source code video. Perfect for programmers who headbang and headbangers who program!

NANOWAR OF STEEL on the new single “Helloworld.java“
“/* HelloWorld.java is the first executable song written in the ancient and
 * epic java programming language.
 * This is an open source song, and you can download the source code from
 * our GitHub repository:
https://github.com/NanowarOfSteel/HelloWorld */”

NANOWAR OF STEEL on their album release on this Friday:
“Never in the history of NANOWAR OF STEEL has there been an album so new and so old at the same time. XX Years Of Steel combines the greatest hits of our past, performed live at Alcatraz, Milan as well as the most mediocre hits of our future: B-Sides, Covers and Re-recording of previously recorded songs. Just enough to justify a Bonus Disc which you might want to miss!”
