    This is by far one of the best versions live!
    "Hagall (Hailstone) is balancing on a knife edge between creation and destruction - it cleanses/kills ‘the old’ to make room for the new."

    The wanderer, the spirit, the one eyed wisdom.
    The ones without destiny, on the beach they lay.
    His passion, his will, his breath gave life.
    He pierces your soul like the Ravens eye.

    • @raaaar88
      @raaaar88 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi, from 2024!)) As you probably already know, their music was and is dedicated to the traditions of the northern peoples, the ancient knowledge of their ancestors and, of course, runes. Hagal is a rune signifying death and rebirth. The moment when you need to leave behind everything old and unnecessary to make room for something new. This is a part of the cycle of our history, like the setting sun that will soon rise again.

      CaptainTaelos Nope. German "heil" doesn't sound like English "hail" (well, maybe it does, depending on dialect). German "ei" is a bit closer to English "y" (in words like "sky" and "why", while the English "ai" is more like the "ay" in "way" and "say".(And depending on the gender of the person you're addressing, it can be either "heil" (for women) and "heill" (for men); Old Norse might've been closer to the English pronounciation, even if modern Icelandic spelling looks more like the the German one.
      (And if you want to get technical, "heil" in (modern) Icelandic is a singular feminine word; it's "heill" if you're talking to a guy, "heilar" if you're addressing a group of womene, "heilir" if you're addressing a group of men, and "heil" again if you're addressing a mixed company.)

    • @notexactlyrocketscience
      @notexactlyrocketscience 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      the albums with him in the band were a bit better imho. i like the new album as well, but it's missing something. hard to name it.

    • @VampyrTepes
      @VampyrTepes  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well I don't agree, because Ragnarok is way much better than Yggdrasil. And in fact Einar creates everything on every Runalkjod album.

    • @notexactlyrocketscience
      @notexactlyrocketscience 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah I know Einar writes the songs. I just happen to think that the first albums were better. The melodies and the atmosphere are more "raw", magical and simple. The last album has a touch of world music and is far more structured and "mature" sounding. Although Urur and Tyr are great tracks. Regarding Gaahl, I was under the impression he did the vocals along with Einar, which had to be considered during the writing process.
      In terms of a metric of capturing some real or imagined old spirit, Ragnarok is definitely not "better" than Yggdrasil though, that's an insult to this specific type of music. It's a more modern take.

    • @VampyrTepes
      @VampyrTepes  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I understand what you mean, but I'd apply it to the first album only (which is still my favorite). There is some purity about it, which I don't find inside the second album (the writing process appears less mature and profund to me). Yes Ragnarok has a much better production and structure, but I find lots of inspiration within it.
      Regarding to Gaahl, in the first album he doesn't appears a lot, and Lindy-Fay has a much more important and strong presence. Gaahl is a good vocalist but at the same time I find that he's way too much overrated.

    Hearkens deep into Nordic roots. Speaking of roots: Isn't it time the Nordic people up-root their pozzed governments and halt the Islamic diarrhea wave that's destroying both their society and heritage? Hopefully sounds like this can revive ancestral spirit. (There should be no question whatsoever that which needs to be done for any true Norseman!)

      +Masta Tone i think you are confusing Denmark, and to an extent Norway, with Sweden, we're not ruled by the same government, and we pretty much all agree that Swedens government is fucked up, but unless you're actually from the old Norse countries i don't think you have any right to determine what constitutes a "true" Norseman, leave my national heritage alone thank you very much.

    • @ToneLouk
      @ToneLouk 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, I am glad other Scandinavian countries have taken steps not to emulate Swedens suicidal policies. I have Swedish background- There are rural communities all over the Canadian Parries with Scandinavian ancestry. Consider the fate of the cucked Canadian commune as a warning. (One can hardly call us a nation at this point) Whites are now a distinct visible minority in our 2 largest cities: Toronto & Vancouver.

  • @cinaedmacseamas2978
    @cinaedmacseamas2978 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    "Found the Christian" yep, a few of us are here. And some of us, like yours truly, have Norse and Viking ancestry. The music is awesome. Mystical. But there is a reason our ancestors converted to Christianity when we realized we didn't have to sacrifice our children to the gods to appease them or to show them proper honor. We preferred a god who would sacrifice himself for us. And everywhere the Norse encountered Christianity the norse converted, from Ireland to Novgorod and Kiev.

    • @marktuohy1088
      @marktuohy1088 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      You have a very ignorant understanding of why heathen Europe finally succumbed and converted to christianity. It wasn't done willingly. People were forced to accept christianity and abandon their indigenous spiritual practices due to decrees and penalties imposed from newly converted monarchies, fear of persecution, hefty fines, and also imprisonment and execution by the church. The Church could seize land and assets from people caught practicing their heathen spirituality. And no...people of that era didn't go around sacrificing humans, and definitely not children, on a whim. Human sacrifice wasn't something that was done lightly. So stop trying to take some moral high ground and embellish your story, by making it sound like our viking ancestors were sacrificing people every 2nd day. If anything, the church has been responsible for the persecution and deaths of countless people!

      @@marktuohy1088 Right, the Norse were such panzies overthrowing kings wherever they went, but when a Norse king said Convert! they completely folded and did what they were told.....
      The truth is definitely in the middle between our respective and briefly stated views.
      Is it not possible that the Norse were tired of their religion, back then, just as people are tired of Christianity today?
      They had their own way of handling murder, for instance, and they decided that the Christian way was much better. They made a choice, and no one forced them, despite any decree from the Kings of Denmark.
