      ​@jamert8820 Pagan religions are 100s of years old than Christianity, which is why you resonate with you and deep in your soul. I was "raised my Christian nationalists and always felt disconnected and sadness . The sadness was that complete damation of Pagaism. I made my 1st yule alter at around age 10yrs old. Why because I felt it was within my soul. Just look to the sky and phase of moon and it's there withing your self. As for my Christian nationalists family , I was ostracized and family members begged my to ask Jesus for forgiveness. . Forgiveness for what ?!!💔 look to the skies being Pagan has always been within me for 1000s of years. 💚So mote it be

      Was hopping into the comments to recommend exactly this. It's absolutely stunning.
      I struggle with a lot of mental issues, PTSD, depression, etc, and occasionally will just take a day tripping on mushrooms to try to work through some things. I was familiar with heilung, and thought mixing that in would be an interesting addition to the trip. I ended up sitting in my room with Anoana on a loop for about 6 hours. It changed my life. I don't like to exaggerate, but I'm genuinely, fundamentally in a better place since that experience, and the song played a huge part in it.

    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 purification
    Look like dying embers
    Look like dying embers
    Look like dying embers

    Yeah, these guys came out of nowhere a few years back and dominated Castlefest as a virtually unknown act. That alone is insanely impressive. Steal the show at a metal festival without actually playing Metal, lol. Granted Metalheads have eclectic tastes, but that's still virtually unheard of. They got some backlash for using a human femur as a drum stick in their early shows. But it's a very unique style, very theatrical.

      It's the hypnotic tribal rhythm. I had the same reaction when I first heard Wardruna and Heilung. The brain is programmed recognize rhythm and there's this really primal feel to it. I think it's like genetic memory or something. It somehow feels really familiar. Like something you've known always.

    In Heilung's music Kai routinely sings cleanly but also uses a form of Kargyraa with varying degrees of distortion, and then does straight up black metal screams. Kargyraa transitions into screams VERY easily and thus you usually get a blend of both going on within a song, just gotta drop primary cord phonation, increase compression and play with mouth shaping.

    For more by this group, I'd recommend 'In Maijan' and 'Alfadhirhaitl' from the same concert. The first song has more vocal range from Maria; the second is more like a village getting ready for battle and asking for Odin's blessing.
    Another band that I discovered much more recently is Otyken. Sounding a bit like a mix of Heilung and The Hu, the members are from a native tribe in Siberia.

    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, melt away all moons
    It will make the old fires of purification, purification
    Look like dying embers, look like dying embers"

    Nice you found Heilung. I would highly recommend seeing Wadruna feat. Aurora "Helvegen". One of the best live performances i ever saw from her and Wadruna. Also recommended with english subtitles on, because its sung in norse. It drives me to tears every time i hear it.

    • @olavrell
      @olavrell หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      It's not sung in Norse, it's just in regular Norwegian, the only part of Helvegen that's norse is the spoken word poem at the end.

    I am so happy that you delved into this incredible group. Watching you experience this for the first time has been such a pleasure.
    It is so hard to recommend a first song for someone to listen to because it is just so different, and there are so many songs that are also so different from each other. This song definitely has a massive impact on the first-time listener, so it is a good choice. My suggestion for a song, that shows off Maria's massive vocal talent, I suggest the song "In Maidjan." From this same performance at Castlefest.
    Thanks for this reaction. It will probably be the reaction highlight of my week.

  • @rnowak85

    Enjoyed your reaction. Heilung (healing in German) is an experimental folk music band who draws inspiration for their music from texts, runic inscriptions and other artifacts from Iron Age Northern Germanic people and the Viking Age. They call their music amplified history and their goal is to connect modern society with the beginnings of humanity through music. They call their shows Rituals and having been to one it is a very apt description. It is a very spiritual experience. The show starts with all the performers coming on stage and a blessing given by one of the male singers (Kai I believe) acting as Shaman. They then recite their collective prayer.
    Remember, that we all are brothers
    All people, beasts, trees 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"
    The rest of the ritual takes you on an amazing journey of healing and reconnection with something ancient and eternal.
    Highly recommend the song Anoana for it's amazing story and Maria's fantastic vocals. I think you would especially enjoy where she uses the traditional Swedish Kulning technique in the song. Very powerful and soul stirring.

    An easier way into the band would be Anoana, or Noropo. Both are extraordinary ❤

    This is so primal with a sad undertone. This is truly amazing. The primal nature of telling a story of a struggle is so compelling. This is my first time hearing them, and I am an instant fan. My heritage is viking, Norse, norwegian scandinavia, and this fascnates me and makes me feel connected to them. Thank you for doing this review!❤❤❤

    Krigs galdr = War chant. I saw Heilung (healing in English) live in Toronto a year and a half ago and, what I heard about their "concert" proved to be true - it's more of a ceremony than a concert. It stirred my Nordic roots in a way that still hasn't left me.

    Thank you for doing Heilung justice in your analysis. If you watch or listen to some of their current stuff, you'll be even more impressed. If you ever get a chance to see them live, they are a must-see. Their "rituals" are absolutely the most entertaining, mesmerizing, captivating experiences and will move you mind, body, and soul!!

  • @Nidels
    @Nidels หลายเดือนก่อน +8

    The languages used are english and runic ¿Old danis?
    The texts of the song have been extracted from the Eggia stone. Eggja's stone (also known as Eggum's or Eggjum's stone) This is a large flat stone with runic inscriptions that covered a tomb dating from the period between 650 and 700 and that was discovered while plowing a field in 1917 at Eggja farm in Sogn og Fjordane, Norway. When it was found, the inscription was on the underside of the slab covering a man's grave, so that it could not be read from the outside (like the Kylver stone). The stone is currently in the Bergen museum. It has about 200 runes, making it the longest inscription engraved with letters of the ancient futhark alphabet, although some runes have a transitional form to the young futhark.
    The lyrics say the following:
    The home fades.
    Vil launched a deadly horde upon them.
    The oars and mast were destroyed.
    Who brought?
    Who brought the horde to this distant land?
    The fishes of the streams of Firnoy.
    They swim adrift.
    From the land of bright meadows.
    Who brought?
    Who brought the horde to this distant land?
    A hug.

    Listening to Heilung is an incredible experience. The ancient and primal sounds they make are mesmerising and evoke Vikings chanting. I feel like I have been meditating deeply or have gone into a trance watching/listening to them. I can't wait to see them live when they come to Australia!

  • @AlexPanther
    @AlexPanther หลายเดือนก่อน +8

    There is no "Celtic" throat singing.
    Kai occasionally uses a Mongolian type of throat singing (undertone singing) called "kargyraa".
    The gutteral vocals in this song are more akin to metal vocals.
    All false folds, no vocal folds.
    Kai inspired me to learn Kargyraa myself and I'm familiar with metal vocalisations, so I notice the differences pretty clearly.
    Another band that uses Kargyraa in a very beautiful and nordic inspired way is Nytt Land. I highly recommend.

    Saw them live last year on holiday (may have timed that purposely) when they were one of the headliners for Arc Tangent. Amazingly they are coming to my hemisphere later this year. I got the early bird tickets immediately. Due to demand they just announced a second concert. I immediately lengthened my work leave request and got the pre-release tickets again. Heilung are amazing. Also the amazing talent that is Eivor is opening for them who I am beyond excited to see live!!

    The lady and the throat singer with dreadlocks are a couple. The guy with the antlers (a tattoo artist) asked if he could record some of his poems in exchange of a free tattoo for the first guy. They ended up making this band. This was also their first live performance, so everyone else (including the falsetto guy) are guest artists. Some are now regulars, but some did not permanently join, such as the singer with the falsetto. Also, the tattoo was never executed because after this performance they were like “wow this worked?” and they now tour the world. They now have a few female back-up singers, one of which is the sister of the falsetto guy and has an amazing voice (just like basically everyone involved with them)

And I'm a metal head, this isn't my forte at all but there is just something so special about Heilung that I honestly can't even describe - like they're a key to the lock that is my soul. Unfortunately they just have a few tour dates in the US this year and nothing remotely close to me.... so 2025 I really hope or hell maybe something will come up. I have to see them.
