- Heilung is amplified history from early medieval northern Europe and should not be mistaken for a modern political or religious statement of any kind.
Remember that we all are brothers
All people, beasts, tree and stone and wind
We all descend from the one great being
That was always there
Before people lived and named it
Before the first seed sprouted

lol
I swear the comment sections on all those nordic songs ...
And what glory have you achieved outside your many cyber skirmishes, "Anxiety disorders"?
I served my time. With brothers and sisters of many colors and stripes. I've earned my place. Have you?
Doubtful.
Heilung thank you for existing! And for sharing your love, passion, heritage and understanding of wisdom. When can we expect a new album?
I was shown this video - to my shocked and awed surprise by my good friend's 4-year old son (half South African, dreads and all), being a click-happy tech-savvy prodigy he had gauged the mesmeric quality and neural hum of all ancestral - not the immediately hijacked monochrome interpretation, pseudo-pagans spiritual urbanites all.
Thank you for the experience and for you valiant, sadly neccessary defense of YOUR OWN WORK.
i dont understand why everyone is projecting their own insecurities onto this work of art, its not saying we are all the same, its saying we are all interconnected and cut from the same fabric, if you are a heathen like me you are a pantheist, you beleive all of nature is alive and we are all one divinity, who said divinity is just feel good shit? the narrative that plays out here is as much a part of divinity as anything else, how can there be order without disorder, good without bad? the divine reality that we are all a part of is older than even the gods, nothing expressed in the video is out of sync with the old ways and it certainly isnt marxism, have you read the lyrics? its about defending your people, wanting to be left in peace but not being afraid to fight.
"What am I supposed to do if I want to talk to you about peace and understanding, but you only understand the language of the sword?"
Gives me chills every time.
Me when the waitress at chillies won't accept bitcoin to pay for my meal(She doesn't know about the .700 Nitro express pointed at her kneecaps under the table)
Its the truth.
Conflicting spirits I guess.
i want to say that to Russians.
I admit I really struggle with this … I understand the sword in ways that affect me way too much
Folks keep saying they don’t like the English part, that it breaks the flow of the song. And I say that is the exact point, just like how war breaks the flow of peoples lives. So personally I like it.
Yeah, well, gotta say it goes really well with the video!
you did change my mind. thanks austin.
That part is amazing!! Haha, so full of rage! War Chant
NOOOOOOOO it is really the worst part, i hope some1 can remix it without the english part it totally cuts the vibe out
I love the English part!
The part with the helmets is brilliant.
Our technology evolves, but war is never far away.
war... war never changes
War....has changed.
all a bullet is, is an arrow point capable of being launched great distances, with more power....that's all....
@@mywifesboyfriend5558 I agree. Psychological warfare, it’s more sophisticated. They are able to convince women from a certain demographic to not have children. They target these women with propaganda telling them it’s better to procreate with men outside their race. It’s genocide but the very people who are targeted aren’t even aware….yet.
As it will be forever as we are not made or plastic and metal
Been doing the whole living thing for 54 years. Never have I experienced anything like this before. Best concert I've ever attended. It wasn't a show; it was a ceremony. I am a better man for the experience. It truly helped me heal my self, after connecting with my ancestors. Incredible.
We are all one, coming from the same place....
We whites got pretty lucky with the best spawn location in the world for advancing tech-wise....Horses and other draft animals, rich in pure iron, and an extremely diverse ecosystem that perpetuated so many different cultures to grow in close proximity. All whilst also being generally pretty safe environmentally, compared to other parts of world (less disasters, less predatory animals that are huge and can easily kill a man, less extreme weather that acctualy affects brain usage [heat stroke]. Humans can brave cold and lose a limb over it, but extreme heat cooks your brain...).
Not to mention being in such a location that was hard to reach or mysterious to Asia/Africa. A boon though, because it inspired them to explore the unknown, or invade. Mongols brought us better horses, philosophies, and war tactics. Africans/central Asians brought us better forging techniques, and craftsmanship principals like mathematics, and engineering.
We just used everything the world gave us to the greatest of our ability like any other human culture would strive to do.
-Native Americans were still tribal because they didn't have horses, or much forging/tech knowledge. No true system of mathematics. They were too separated from everyone else to benefit from our togetherness, not really their fault at all. (same goes for any far separated native group. Look at pupa new ginie, or the amazon.
-Mongols had little resources in terms of their geology, and had to take what they could, or trade with other cultures. Using their mass supply of horses to get around and discover new things.
-Central Asians and North Africans live in deserts/savannahs and life can be scarce, and so concentrated on survival and daily needs.
South Africans suffer from the no horses problem too, and while they did have draft animals (elephants, bison,etc) they had a lot more environmental hazards to deal with compared to anywhere in Europe. (Lions, cheetahs, hyena's, etc). They had wayyyy more environmental extremes to deal with than most Europeans on average.
I make all these points to highlight how lucky we are a ethnicity among the people. That it is our duty to help elevate the other peoples to enjoy the luxuries of safety and technology that have been shared with us through the generations.
The reality is, no matter how much we fight, how much we say we hate each other, we all have a part of one another in us. We are all one people with common goals. (unless your a socio or psychopath....)
K-aW-tEk God your point pissed me off. You have the exact mentality of the conquistadors: "we have the good culture, everything else is savagery." Native Americans were happy before French people got there. They had their own culture and respected nature, something we're clearly lacking today. They were all about balance and family and respect. What is it about now again? Individuality, destruction and disrespectful behaviour. Maybe we should've adopted their culture instead? Without all that pollution and complications to life that are maths and metallurgy. Get out of your simple world and face reality.
@@k-aw-teksleepysageuni8181 you know all those things exist every where else and the diference is only in choices?We choose to prosper to build and make thinks while other choose to live on what we made and spend their time killing each other?
@@louisrobitaille5810 Fact is the one that move over here to europe and americas bring with them culture of rape and disaster.Also most of polution comes from countries utside western culture influence
Holy shit, I GOTTA see one of those in my lifetime.
My mind is blown, I just found out today that these visuals are based on actual Scandinavian rock art! Bringing Nordic bronze age rock carvings to life... Brilliant.
THANK YOU! I had no idea and once I saw your comment I immediately went to check out the carvings and oh my god wow my mind is just blown. The carvings themselves are so beautiful and interesting and the band is so smart and creative to think about taking computers and making these Rock carvings come to life! Thanks fam
thats really cool.some would make awesome tattoos. have always been fascinated by "rock carvings" and have seen a few around where i live but nothing as intricate as those shown here. the maze that is shown is found all over Europe and and USA.

@@tononchalant1226 Aha! Not a Dane I presume ;-P
It jas been a jiding
What am I supposed to do
If I want to talk about peace and understanding
But you only understand the language of the sword
What if I want to make you understand that the path you chose leads to downfall
But you only understand the language of the sword
What if I want to tell you to leave me and my beloved ones in peace
But you only understand the language of the sword
I let the blade do the talking...
So my tongue shall become iron
And my words the mighty roar of war
Revealing my divine anger's arrow shall strike
All action for the good of all
I see my reflection in your eyes
But my new age has just begun
The sword is soft
In the fire of the furnace
It hungers to be hit
And wants to have a hundred sisters
In the coldest state of their existence
They may dance the maddest
In the morass of the red rain
Beloved brother enemy
I sing my sword song for you
The lullaby of obliteration
So I can wake up with a smile
And bliss in my heart
And bliss in my heart
And bliss in my heart
Coexistence, Conflict, combat
Devastation, regeneration, transformation
That is the best I can do for you
I see a grey gloom on the horizon
That promises a powerful sun to rise
To melt away all moons
It will make the old fires of purific
Like dying embers
Like dying embers
Like dying embers
Peace equals destruction of the human race war is life

@@intuendaecivilization9365 Sorry mate, humans are becoming weak... War is the answer.

"But you only understand the language of the sword." is such a fucking powerful energy.
Ukriane.
Russia will let the blade do the talking. ..
" the fires of purification "...
@Advice from a stupid cat who said anything about what I like or I don't like ?
You assume much friend.
@Advice from a stupid cat my point is simply-
Ukriane only understands the language of the sword.
The sword they shall receive.
They should of left the people in peace.
But they only understand the language of the sword.
Let the blade do the talking.
@UCe1rlIcrLW_-sI5jUxz4_TQ You speak like a uneducated Ukrianian nationalist. And can't say anything interesting other than calling me an American orc hahaha.
You think that's insulting ? Lol
Your country is about to cease to exist, so the west can play with thier toys tryingbto weaken Russia.
Ukriane a cuck proxy and will never be in Nato. Just a pawn. Look at last article in financial times..Ukriane is getting smashed ( according to ukrop commanders)
And by the way. Fuck Ukriane, they just banned orthodox Christianity..Satanist fascists.
Fuck thier language, fuck thier so called " culture, " too.
I
@Advice from a stupid cat no, Ukrianians aren't welcome in Europe, bunch of lazy fascists.
But alas, Europe is about to get another 5m refugees from Ukraine.
Thier economy can handle that lol
Enjoy your winter.

Pop songs: songs over
Heilung: we are just getting started
Haha very true. Pop music (most of it) is too commercialized. Same ingredients, same products, ship out and repeat. The band Ghost have been my go to for non commercialized shit until I found this group. So cool.
@@stevemack2004 fellow Ghost fan. Them and Heilung are about all I listen too anymore, I can't stand the rehased crap in mainstream music now
@@thegreatallanu Absolutely. It's all the same ingredients, and once a label finds out that they can make money off of it, all of the other labels follow in suit. I'm happy to know other people feel like me haha. Its refreshing.
@@stevemack2004 indeed. I don't listen to much out of mainstream stuff anymore, I love bands like Heilung bringing something new and raw back into music. We need more of it
Ye, well. She's singing the same thing over and over again, so you could easily make this a 1 hour song without much effort.
i spent 200 dollars on new headphones and the FIRST thing I did was listen to this song. Fucking breathtaking.
I bet, i still wanna experience good headphones.
Which brand and model of headphones you got?
Omg I just connected my headphones and... Omggg🎧

It Got Me INSTANTLY!! LOVE IT!!! 🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I showed a friend Heilungs music. Even after explaining the meaning behind their songs he said they were weird and clearly they were evil. Crazy man. It's beautiful and meaningful to me.
Hollywood and the church have really scrambled up people's perceptions about the world and what resides within it. Sounds like your friend has been fed the same propaganda from the middle-ages.
A band called 'Heilung' meaning 'Healing' that advocates peace, to live & let live.. if this concept is weird, and clearly evil then your friend is in serious need of getting their head checked at the very least.
It's that same narrow minded understanding & hard-line ideology that has gotten so many generation's murdered or outright liquidated from memory. Just like in the song, the attacking force refuses to live & let live.
Ironic..
Your friend is close minded and not cultured lol.
different langue, different looks = THEY'RE SATANISTS!
If you look for evil in everything first, you usually think you have found it. Sad.
It’s evil and pagan, but I still like it for some reason…
Is your friend of Roman descent?
As a historian, I am most seriously impressed how much this composition and presentation combines. A commentary of the conditions of the early human experience. The story is as old as time and universal even until this moment. A group of people tribe together to survive the rigors and enjoy the experience of life, only to be targeted by other human beings with a different agenda. There is conflict, murder, pillage, woe, and assumption of victory. This is followed by vengeance and slaughter. We , humanity, are a disappointing lot. We are born with all the potential to truly be natural and beneficial. We know the ideal, but all of those we encounter affect what we become.
Conflict, murder, pillage, woe, and assumption of victory, and the effects thereafter of vengeance and slaughter, are natural. One may only be disappointed because one wishes that man be what he is not. Expectations must be curbed- we can only hope to improve the lot of mankind by first recognizing what he is intrinsically, and then working upon that foundation. One cannot make an individual of an ant; one cannot make a cosmopolitan of tribal hominoids. One can try, and indeed, many have tried- and all we have to tangibly show for it are inflamed and exaggerated tribal sentiments, horrible tragedies, and countless innocents lost to a conflict they never knew they were a part of. Thus the great cycle of time turns, round and round- viewed from outside as a wheel- viewed from within as a mill grinding slowly, yet grinding exceeding small; patiently and thoroughly, with exactness grinding all.
those who died before us are the lucky ones in my opinion since they still knew who they were and where they came from until the slow creep of modern civilisation or what we call "modern"
Pure ego and vanity to consider our "selfs" better than we in fact are.History does not require to "justify " simply immutable love amongst the gore. TRULY MY TUPUNA (ancestors) living in my bones,I "know "them, therefore complex wave function.
War is a part of what it means to be human. It's an ultimate drama. It's necessary. Be thankful for it.
We as humans are not a disappointing lot. Our ancestors would find modern humans to be very disappointing though. War and conflict is not evil, just natural. Modern man is weak and pathetic and will one day shoot ourselves in the foot. Nature is not forgiving, but we should be adapted for it like our ancestors.
Krigsgaldr means "War chant" or "war incantation". Krigs is the "pregerman" word for war (as Krieg is now) and Galdr is like "a spell ritual performed with sound", which is the caster voice.
Really nice to see how etimology influences our language.
Krig is still war in most germanic languages. Galdr may be Scaldr = Scaldr = Tale
@@Xrisus94 Galdr can mean magic or spell
@@Surtur99 ah intressting! Thanks
Interesting! I assumed:
Krieg = war
Skald = Story/history/lore
r = "one who does something"
Therefore (I thought) Krigsgaldr = "Teller of war tales" and/or "war magician."

Es ist unbeschreiblich was dieses Lied mit mir macht. Nachdem ich es gehört habe, öffne ich meine Augen und meine Wut ist verflogen. Ich liebe es. Grüße aus Deutschland

Mmmhmmm yes. I understood exactly 5 of those words. XD
Wish youtube still had it's little translate feature.
7:07 calm as a spritzer
I love Heilung too! My mother is from Schmalkalden, Thuringia. Father from England.
Thats caused by polyrhythmic elements. This was effecively used to prepare the warriors for war to forget pain and fear.
The thing is that in this condition the mind shuts down critical thinking.
Apart from being a great song, the visuals work well for traumatizing young children. 11/10 would watch again.
teilzeitbernd I was traumatized for a good hour after watching it for the first time and I was around 17
my little brothers, 3 and 7, love this shit and are the ones who introduced it to me
ISnt that the point, to traumatize young children? I find it refreshing.
@@Mars-eh5qd did you learned something about it...?
@@leorosa1998 never threaten me
What I like about this song, is that it does not celebrate war and combat, unfortunately like too many artists in this corner of music do, stuck in the "viking" blood-and-thunder mindset.
It begrudges it. It hates it. It makes peace with the fact that conflict, and regrettably, combat is a part of human nature and evolution, but these people did not want this. These people did not enjoy this. They lost their own, they were raped, tortured and killed, and were pushed to the point of exterminating their enemy. But there was no celebration, only quiet afterwards. Quiet for healing and mourning. Because no loss of life should be celebrated, only regarded as necessary.
this is what I suspected, the story is being revealed to me, thanks
Well said!
@Bart Welch II Should be noted that the band name itself is Heilung... Healing... kinduvva a nice cognate, imo. Would be interested on your take on what the Beta Band was saying with their video for Assessment
Eloquent
Bart Welch II well you don’t know why “Vikings” did what they did if you think that they celebrated war at all, nor are artists celebrating war. They are making powerful music that speaks to people. Also maybe quiet down on the poetic aspect of your writing. You’re not very articulate so you just look moronic
The non-English lyrics are taken from the runes of Panel 2 of the Eggja Stone, a gravestone from AD 650-750 in Norway. It likely describes burial rites/sacrifice and passage to the afterlife, but Heilung has interpreted it for a story.
I don't doubt you, but it sounds weird if the lyrics are from Norway in the 7th-ish century, as it doesn't sound like old Norse at all. "Min warb naseu / Wilr made thaim / I bormotha hauni / Hu war (hu war) / Hu war opkam har a hit lot"
Why does everyone write about norse or norse tongue - the vikings all over Scandivania called it the danish tongue, töngur danskür; so..?
Let's try, and please translate from the stones of Jelling, if You can:
Haraltr Kunukr Bad Kaura Kumbla Thessa Aft Kumr Fathur Sina Auk Aft Thuroi Muthur Sina -Sa Haraltr Sik Vann Alt Tanmaurk And Noruig And Tarni Karthi Kristna... AD 985, and my peoples ancient language (which I understand, more than the actors in "Vikings" do - he he...)... Btw: My local North Jutland / Vendsyssel dialect still has a lot of ancient danish words and grammatics in it - funny in modern times, eh..?
@@Aethuviel It's not old Norse it's Old High German. Look up the lyrics Norse and Old English or Saxon used the th sound as a d when spelt. I would know I've been studying Old English ans Norse for a while.
@@janandersen6607 as an American I don't understand the language in the least bit, but seeing comments like yours is interesting. I really appreciate the insight I'm given by comments like yours. Thank you.
@@thatrandomyoutubechannel This version has two verses - the original ( I have it in a book from the 16th century, when they collected old folksongs in Denmark and Norway - has more than 40 verses - typical for medieval folksongs... :-)
It is the most beautiful song, but the war part of the song gave me so much pain. I am a woman and a mother, the loss of life and violence is the most painful thing in this universe. Peace to you, people.
My heart belongs to healing, ever
The whole song is about war, we only understand the English part we’re people are raped and slaughtered but they are telling us a complete story about a village getting slaughtered who will seek a terrible revenge
💫🕊💫
the rape part in this song is disturbing. Alas, it has happened so much and will keep on happening long I am gone, for sure.
If you are still with the Father of your children then remember that this "most painful thing in the universe" is something he (if he is a REAL Man) may have to one day live & very likely die in in order to show you the Truth of the Universe.
@@leanikyorn9571 Nothing what you said is in the Non English part.
This band has helped me stay strong fighting my illness, especially this song. I was hit with toxic mold poisoning a year and a half ago, this song has been my warrior song. It has helped me brave through testing and treatments. Thank you.
Get well soon, stay strong.
Hope it helps you heal.
Heilung literally means "healing" in German. I hope you mend well and recover your strength with all haste
If you aren't healed yet, take Boron capsules. Kills mould the spore in the body.
I've suffered and still suffer from the same. I'm thankful you could find courage from their music and it helped in the healing process.
Better to be a warrior in a garden. Than a gardener in a war.
It is better to be a gardener in an effective civilization than a warrior in an ineffective civilization.
I don't know, then the warrior is left alone to his thoughts of what he's done in the garden.
Samwise Gamgee.
Hmm. I was just thinking I ought to get a stock & 2x scope on my gun, practice some. I've got a 1000 rounds of 9x19 sitting in a safe.
I'm literally the latter. A simple gardener in Malmö
"And as you have slaughtered us in the name of your god," The Shaman warned, "Our god shall slaughter you in the name of her children."
And the men laughed, and hollered as they left the Shaman upon the shore and climbed into their golden boats. They laughed and hollered as they sailed away. They mocked the very idea of it, "a God coming up from the ocean and destroying their boats? What a preposterous notion."
And as they laughed, and hollered, far from the bloody shore; that is exactly what happened. Not a soul returned to Rome that day. Not a single one.
Damn.
Now ain't that a touchin' story?
@Fuck inferior ugly usa Read a book. For example, Finland was a shamanistic culture pre-christianity.
@Fuck inferior ugly usa wouldn't it be easy just to say what they did have. They had Völvas which is the nordic version of shamans or witches. Just because they use the wrong name doesn't mean they are wrong it just means they misunderstand or don't have the words to describe it.
@Fuck inferior ugly usa ok now you obviously don't know what you are talking about. Because everyone worshipping the old ways but only a few were called Völvas which in English means seeress. Not to mention there are 2 branches to the old way there are the Æsir and the Vanir. The Vanir practices magic. If you can't see obvious correlations between shamans and Völvas. You are just being a pretentious asshole
So I have a chronic illness (IBD) that I’ve had for almost two decades now and even though I take medication for it, I still can get immense pain where I can’t sleep for days. Something I’ve noticed is that music really helps me to relax a bit more and I’m much more likely to get some sleep now listening to something. Ever since I started listening to Heilung, I’ve noticed it helping a lot more on top of everything and I’m so grateful this group exists. Thank you for helping alleviate some of my pain so I can relax!
I think its music related serotonin, could be wrong, worth looking up I guess
I do not know if you're acquainted with other Germanic languages or not, but the name of the band, "Heilung", actually means "healing" in German, so it is absolutely fitting to feel the pain subside while listening to this profound and soothing sound. Peace from Romania, my friend…
Dear friend , try to find a real Teacher and start practicing Qigong. This is my advice to you. Also read a little about the philosophy of Qigong, I recommend the author - Mantak Chia. Our thought can heal us by itself. I wish you Healing! 💚

I am nearing my 58th cycle around or Sun and l find the art of Heilung, Wardruna, Skald, and many more healing to my spirit.
Blessed be to these artists and hail to The Old Gods!
I have a feeling I don't have the proper terms, but I'll try. HEY AMERICA, HERE'S WHAT MUSIC IS. *That's not it...I meant to say that I wish people weren't scared of SPIRITS, when that is all we are.
Heilung resonates with my soul absolutely. A truly gifted & dedicated music that stirs the primal & awakens that within
As half Nowegian and a Pagan.. Heilung stirs my soul ❤ heill ok sæll !
As an American Indigenous, I am taken aback in this beautiful song of the "war path." I salute you.
Players are all the same, we just started on different servers. And some servers had more PvP than others, so those players moved up the tech tree quicker.

Heilung means healing. I had a headache when this song started but it's gone now. Am I saying that heilung healed my headache? No, but I am implying it heavily.
I like this comment.
The headache left you and your beloved ones in peace
me too
I was on a whitey but now I'm fine. Annecdotal I know but...
No idea why but everytime i hear this song i feel at peace and clear minded yet waiting and ready for something. The wind always kicks up too and the smell is so pure and my senses are hyper vigilant yet my mind is never clearer.
John Myers the trees and wind are alive. Listen to them, for they are listening to you
My Son, when he couldn’t find his Sleep as a Baby, listened to this Song for many Times to find Peace. We are right now on a Danish Fjord, he is 6 Years old now and asking me: did I really fell asleep to this?!😂 The Gods are here. And we drink Mjød and salute them! Skål, Heilung!
Lucky kid!
good vibes
The times of maddness has come
Times of anger
Times of lie
Times of suffering
Times change
World is change
The times of blood and war, sword and axe
What am I supposed to do
If I want to talk about peace and understanding
But you only understand the language of the sword
What if I want to make you understand that the path you chose leads to downfall
But you only understand the language of the sword
What if I want to tell you to leave me and my beloved ones in peace
But you only understand the language of the sword
I let the blade do the talking
So my tongue shall become iron
And my words the mighty roar of war
Revealing my divine anger's arrow shall strike
All action for the good of all
I see my reflection in your eyes
But my new age has just begun
The sword is soft
In the fire of the furnace
It hungers to be hit
And wants to have a hundred sisters
In the coldest state of their existence
They may dance the maddest
In the morass of the red rain
Beloved brother enemy
I sing my sword song for you
The lullaby of obliteration
So I can wake up with a smile
And bliss in my heart
And bliss in my heart
And bliss in my heartCoexistence, Conflict, combat
Devastation, regeneration, transformation
That is the best I can do for you
I see a grey gloom on the horizon
That promises a powerful sun to rise
To melt away all moons....
Glory to Ukraine

its so strange that i am only a english speaker but this song has always reminded me that i have two sides to me one that wants to live in peace and the other that would destroy anything that means harm to the things i love it has taken my mind to some dark scenarios, and the animation almost mimicked some of those thoughts that i have had while listening , that was very powerful to watch
Да, круто!
I came upon this music by chance it strikes a deep chord within me...this music and beat are timeless, I'm 64 and I am simply blown away by the animation and creativity. Marvelous and devastating!

I think I understand the song better now, thanks to the video. I thought english part that starts with "What am I supposed to do…", at first I thought that this part was the "Kriegsgaldr", the war magic, or incantation intoned before the inevitable battle, because as much as peace is desired, the attackers only know the language of the sword. I thought it was the battle magic woven by the defenders to aid them.(maybe it is, as well). Now I see how the proto-norse lyrics, which are the words found on the eggja stone (the eggja stone is a tomb stone with proto-norse inscription, found in Norway) (the ones that tell of a shipwreck in a far off land) are describing the effects of the retaliatory war magic cast at the fleeing attackers. The "villager" at 6:45 is grieving for his slain love, so he eats the sacred mushrooms and enters into a shamanic trance. There he is transformed from ordinary mortal and assumes a more primal divine spirit shape (with the antlers, beating on the shamanic drum). The proto-norse words say "Vil (the seagod, or just divine will) threw a death wave over the boat, the mast snapped, the oars were useless, the wave, like a godly-fish from Firnøy’s streams, out of river-fear swimming,
as fowl, out of f(?) crowing(from our crowing/incanting (the crow shaped branch calling out a malediction). The few survivors who make it to shore, are now on the receiving end of violence from the "little snails", (which btw, show up a lot in the margins of illuminated medieval manuscripts) which they so carelessly and effortlessly crushed under foot earlier.
And so, through "kriesgaldr", or war magic, vengeance is brought upon the departing invaders. Not too unlikely use of magic, since historicaly it was not uncommon for magic workers to curse an enemy's ships. (one of the witches from MacBeth is another famous literary reference to this kind of magic.)
The eegja stone has quite a few different interpretations. I love this artistic interpretation from Heilung. Bravo.
Thank you
Wow, that is some impressive insight - what is your background since you know so much about this? Thanks for sharing!
Well done interpretation!
Nice
Thanks
3 years ago commenting again because this is so timeless. I never noticed before how 4:29 when the raider steps on the spirit, it turns into a regular leaf. As if his very existence is stamping out the life/animation of the land that the music brang.
Also notice how when the villager takes the mushroom and becomes a shaman, the colours are inverted along with the power dynamic
What are the little snail people then? another tribe? or nature itself? looks like nature sunk the warship.
Very beautiful, yet tragic. The sad truth of humanity is that no matter how much people want peace, there will always be those who will force people to take up arms.
love peace but embrace violence. "It is better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war..."
@maineking94 You see. This is why you. Only understand the language of the sword. As that is the language you use.

Today, we are cowardly beyond reason.
The old Germanics used to REALLY love war, they trained endlessly, their greatest desire in life was to die in a spectacular battle, all their gods were great warriors. Every statue, every temple, dedicated to great warriors, as being fearless and strong in battle was divine.

I really love the violence x peace juxtposition in this music. It’s so soothing, calming, ominous, aggressive, foreboding, protective, defensive, untranslateable. It gives me a religious feeling and it reminds me of the Bhagavad Gita.

Beautiful band. I wish more bands did what you do. We should all be united. Thank you Heilung for your mission. I saw you last year live and cannot wait for this year. You have a fan for life
To be honest, this song and its music video really disturb me at some point. But I know that great art is never intended to be comfortable. This is art. These are pure emotions. I'm so angry that I have discovered this just today.
The purpose of art is to be comfortable. Art should be beauty so it can be a relief from the suffering that comes with life. Only in the early 20th century we somehow forgot about it. Great art always intended to be comfortable up until Dechamp came along and desecrated all over it.
@@perliva The purpose of art is to express oneself in a way that cannot be expressed with language, and also touch something in another person on a deep level. It can be comforting, disturbing, uplifting, confusing, or anything else. True art is something you go back to time after time and see and/or feel something different each time.
@@hectorsmommy1717 Expressing oneself can be art but it isn’t necessarily.
@@perliva You missed my point. I did not say expressing yourself is art, I said that art is expressing yourself. Big difference

It's been 5 minutes since the song ended. I've been feeling constant chills running up and down my skin and my eyes are tearing up. How does Heilung do this?
They found something that survived in every one of us from aeons of generations before and they understand to revive that. Something that settled in our DNA thousands of years ago. Something universal.
That only happens to me when i listen to nordic folk, might not understand it physically, but my soul do.
It was exactly the same for me. And it STILL IS...!!!
"Something" that converges harmonically right into your Soul, AND awakens long forgotten, deeply painful Experiences.

I discovered Heilung a few days ago and this melody has been in my head ever since. I haven't been blown away by new music like this in a very very long time. I'm now researching music from my ancient ancestors in the Mediterranean
Polite remark, to imply this iconography is from medieval age is quite an understatement.
(Bearing in mind that there is some artistic ellaboration) We have this sort of graphites in caves in Southern Spain dated around 6 to 4 000 years (and few before that). I love this, by the way, Heilung makes it so SO good, there is so much research put into it... This goes so much beyond music ... Much apreciated, thank you, so much ! Well done!

I feel like metal has the same appeal as this band. In fact Heilung are probably more metal than any deathcore band out there.
Metal is meant to draw out a primal, resonant, and instinctual nature within us all, and Heilung does just that.
Everything about their music is embedded in our very nature. It captures ridiculous emotion.

pro : it was a metal festival so the crowd was mad, especially on hammer hypper ! really fun
I caught them in November about 4 months before the pandemic hit. Absolutely, sublime. The pulsing rythmic bass and energy of the crowd were pure exstacy.
I love the way they chose to depict what actually happens in war, it's a very creative way to get around the demonetization of the video, because it uses historical rock carvings of real events in Scandinavian history, which for what it is, cannot be Demonitized, as it is historical art that has been animated to tell a story. I love it!
To anyone wanting to know and not knowing what language SOME of these lyrics are in it appears to be Proto Norse from Norway, some of the lyrics are almost identical to part of a runic inscription found on the underside of a gravestone in Norway known as the Eggja Stone dating from about 650-700 AD.
thank you..i would be curious as to the the lyrics translated in English.
The wikipedia article on the Eggja Stone has the translation to English.
Wow. What about the new listeners like myself? Was not obvious to me. I had no idea what language it was. Knew it wasn't Mandarin Chinese though.
brain child Someone has been kind enough to put the lyrics in the comment section.
It isn't Old Norse, it is proto-Norse.... which is why no one can decipher the Eggja runestone riddle with certainty.
This song is a funeral dirge composed for all those lost to violence, ancient and modern. Heilung's message is may we never forget but let us heal and be better than that.

This video description should win an award somewhere in the universe.
Heilung are able to create an amazing pastiche of the mindset of human beings from a time long past, a time when the world was a far more brutal and fearful place. There's a tremendous feeling of ancientness to the music, and it allows me to understand on an emotional level the truth that the people who lived in the ancient past were as human as you or I. I'm glad to live in a relatively peaceful time and place, but the positive experience I take away from the music here is that even when the world was dark and violent there was still meaning, beauty and healing to be found. I find that a comforting thought.
Oh no it’s not a more peaceful place,not by any stretch of the imagination.It’s a far more sinister world of human and non human insidious evil than it ever was.
The world is also as infinitely beautiful and mysterious as it ever was,if only the veil would lift from peoples myopic perception prison they would gaze unto that wonder and it would gaze back upon them,and evil would dissolve back into the nothingness from whence it came.
Your music reaches deep. I've been a practitioner of Asatru and been looking for authentic music of the age of my ancestors. Finally something I can use for trances, bloats, and of course, gatherings of my kin. Thank you so much Heilung!
Primal beautiful, magical, authentic, talented. If any of Heilung are reading this, thank you for what you've created -- you're the right band at the right time.
I love this song in particular. The words from the Eggja stone don't have anything to do with war, of course, but it's all good - every part of this song works. Takes me on a journey every time I listen.
”I know that I hung on a windy tree
nine long nights,
wounded with a spear, dedicated to Odin,
myself to myself,
on that tree of which no man knows
from where its roots run.”
Powerful words from Hávamál, when Odin got knowledge of the runes.

This makes me feel things I don't understand, but its primal. The harsh realities of war, depicted as frightening as it should be.
Honestly I Love how this band feels raw and primal it's amazing
How so if you don't mind me asking
Idk if it’s just the unnsettling nature of the video. But something primal within me awakens when I look at that tree beast. It’s fear, like it is a great evil. But the horns steel the fear, and replace it with rage and frenzy.
It's Odin. It's missing an eye and leading people to war. Remember that one of Odins chief names was Evil-Doer and Odin itself means "The Manic/Rageful One".
Actually the whole narrative theme of the album this is on is Odin inciting one tribe to fight another.
@@grimble4564 never thought of it as being Odin
I just had the privilege to see HEILUNG in Seattle. It was sp far beyond what I could have ever hoped for. IY WAS INCREDIBLE!!
Same!
Trying to find someone to go with me in Austin
Just a thought: maybe those metallic sounds represent weapons clashing
Or forging
Iron age?
@@shirleyvandenkerkhof5389 In the English part it shows helmets changing. There are a range from basic stone age head cover to metal knight's wear, to WW2 Stahlhelm and English helmet models that show up. It is likely that the clashing weapons sound, if thatvis the theory, is meant to simply describe the human evolution going hand and hand with war.
@@imtoolazytomakeaname4149 Thanks 😀
It's kinda sad, now that I look back on things. This isn't about faith, this is about history.
Faith should be something that brings people together, and comforts people.
By sad, I mean myself and many others here who did exactly what Heilung asked us not to, make this about faith and endlessly argue about it.
I don't know if anyone from Heilung will see this, but I wanna apologize to not just you absolutely amazing musical historians, but to the people who had to see my idiocy, and the many others who did what I did.
I understand wanting to talk about your faith, whatever it is. It's good for you to be proud of your faith, but please, be strong enough in your faith to know you don't need to show it off.
Well said.
Humility is a hard bone to pick, but once you hold it, you realize is not a mere bone, but the strongest shield and the mightiest sword.
Why should you apologize for something out of you hands all that we can do is wish that people follow there wishes
This really is an amazing and fascinating video. It’s taken me several viewings to understand what they’ve done here, taking ancient illustrations and bringing them to life. They’re traumatizing, for sure. We think we’re past the rampaging and pillaging of other villages etc, but essentially humanity is the same now as it was then.
STORY INSPIRED BY KRIGSGALDR
[listen to the song whilst reading this]
I was just a lad.
I had been in the forest playing, sitting on a branch in a tree, when suddenly a bird swooped down at me, with a wolf trailing it. Startled, I fell down from the branch and hit the ground with a thud. Before I had the chance to process that, a buck jumped over me.The horrified screeching of animals passed by, ignoring me in their flight, yet I had no idea what they were so afraid of.
Then, on the wind, the acrid scent of fire. I stood up, watching a grey gloom rising above the treetops and fading into the sky.
The horns of war blared, echoing through the forest. My blood ran cold. I rushed back to the village as fast as I could - only to see the burning shambles of what I once called my home. Ships were docked on the seaside, heavily armed men slaughtering my cohort. Wherever they burned, death and destruction followed. They raped, pillaged, plundered my people. Tortured and then killed them. My chieftain had been tied to a tree and his throat had been slit.
All for what? Why? What did we do to them to engender this ire of theirs?
I see them, my injured father mourning my mother who had been raped and killed right in front of him. I see the bodies of my friends litter the ground. I see the destruction they had caused to my village. My people. We were a peaceful people; fishermen and farmers - we had no fight with these people. They were of the same blood as we were - one and the same. We were brothers.
We *were* a peaceful people.
We *were* brothers.
They wished to destroy us, conquer us; break us.
They thought wrong.
I killed a man when I was just a lad, a pitchfork jammed right into his chest. His eyes rolled back in his head.
That was my first taste of blood.
Of war.
Of death.
I will ensure my people will survive. I will help my people rise far beyond and above the apes we once called our beloved brothers, who slaughtered us for no reason. But now we will give them a reason.
We too will learn to speak our beloved brother enemy’s language - the language of the sword.
We will become the giants - the jotunn they fear, to protect ourselves. We will call forth the power of our dead comrades, and strike them down with the divine arrows of war. We will rise from the ashes reborn anew, and the ground shall quake and quiver with the strength of our might.
Our new age has just begun.
Raise your shields, my brothers, and may we pave our way to victory.
It was both beautiful and terrifying you want to condemn it but at the same time you want to be a part of it it gives me a very mixed feeling even before I knew the lyrics but I love it
Finally they learned the language of sword to protect themselves
This is stunning! The music is beautiful, the artistry is exceptional, and the story is a remarkable tribute to our history. Thank you for making this! I hope there will be more.
Man I needed to find this. This is calming me down so much, I think I've had it on repeat for the last few hours, just zoning out and trying to write.
This is incredible, deeply evocative stuff. Whether I close my eyes and feel it radiating in my core, or watch with a sense of keen familiarity, I love your work.
In our times, I am grateful for what you do, Heilung.
I was gonna go to sleep but then I got Heilung.
Any German speakers who get the joke?
@@user-fp9pd7fz7h na klar...
Oh....OHHHHHH
Still one of the coolest videos I've ever seen.
