@Douglas E. Heeren well, it sort of figures that the kind of douche that'd be going around and spreading backwards-ass negative comments on a Celtic music video ought to be British, as a matter of history. Are you British, my edgy chum?
I was only folding the bedsheets but man, did it feel like I was preparing the weapons and polishing our armour, helping our warriors head into battle against our enemies that we may drench the fields with their blood!

No, this is what Pippin listens to and no one can even process it when they finally discover it. But Gimli's like, "I now accept him as a warrior brother".
This made me think. The overall tone and theme of this kind of music (pagan/folk metal) is centuries or even millenia old traditional music, that was on the brink of being forgotten. And as the old songs and stories were passed down for generations, every time being changed a tiny bit, in our modern world there are real heroes who help these old sounds stay alive in a new way, that's more interesting and appealing to our modern ears. To everyone who helps preserve traditions, you are real heroes. I'm sure our ancestors would be happy and proud knowing their legacy still lives on, in such an exciting and amazing way.
@@breadbug. I was generalizing, there's a lot of new music that's trying to emulate the sound of really old shamanic/druidic music, and the sounds of the past in general, and I think that's a very good and important thing. Hope i made it clearer :)
@@breadbug. Pagan were the old religions of Europe, Europe wasnt always christian and a lot of things were halfassed taken over like christmas. I would want to know more about Dutch music or atleast from that part of the land.
My younger siblings, ages 4, 6, and 7 love this song. When I first started playing it the 7 yr old looked up and went "they can make metal Scottish music??!! So cool!" Meanwhile, the 4 and 6 yr olds were already headbanging. I love being the big sister
My background is Scottish. I have never been there, or been taught anything relating to Celtic culture. I don't know how, but I feel so connected to music like this
DM: "Roll a perform check." Player: "natural twenty!" DM: "Nice! Now roll for the performance!" Player: "...natural twenty..." DM: "Uh... wow... and... audience reactions..." Player: "Natural-" *Bard miniature starts belting out heavy metal on its lute*
The Bard would be on the bagpipes, the Sorcerer would be shredding on the guitar, the Barbarian's on the drums, the Druid would handle the choir of manly voiced birds, and the Rogue is in the background with a kazoo they stole.
My last D&D game had enough people with the perform skill in it that we made ourselves a band. The whole adventure became all about doing epic things to make the album worth writing. Not saving the world, Writing the most Epic Metal Ballads. This. This was their Jam.
Not a damn single thing wrong with making a party of bards or street performers. Of course, me, I'd turn it into a spy ring and an information trading ring... Bards tend to do that... A lot.
I’m of largely Irish, Scottish, Welsh, and Manx descent but I am born in England with loads of posh ancestors including one Edward I, so I relish my role as the villain in an Anglo-Celtic battle.
One of the most amazing things is that this was composed by a Finn. Goes to show that culture transcends all ethnic and national boundaries! Here's a toast to a wonderful musical masterpiece! May it live on!
There's been a compatibility between Finnish and both Celtic and Saxon folk traditions for some time now, even though they aren't culturally related much. Nonetheless, each resonates with the other when people are exposed to them. Tolkien tapped into that rather effectively. His Lord of the Rings/Silmarillion universe was mostly based on Saxon and Norse literary traditions, but he made good use of Finnish material as well. They fit, and the result always seems to be really cool!
Im just a history teacher and I was preparing my class... I stoped everything for this masterpiece. Saving this music for my future travel to Sctoland and Ireland
Go to Wales if you want to speak some Celtic.. Wales has half a million fluent speakers (1/5 of the population). Though the folk music is rarer, but still there.

Sublime as my beloved 'Clannad´ music! Never heard such sublime celtic rock music; so: really very well done, Antti! Greetings and best wishes from Berlin, Germany!
After listening to this song, the little garden I watered this morning is now a magical, enchanted wood full of mist and fog. It’s wild with dancing fairies, wil-o-wisps, wizards, and talking trees!
Every time I hear this, I start dancing. And by dancing I mean Celtic dancing, which I don't know how to do from a hole in the wall physically. It's...just something I KNOW. Inside. Since I was a child I've had the need to see Scotland. I'm destined to place my feet on the hills where my ancestors walked. And nothing will stop me.
Go for it, ...Go to Scotland. I went in 2015 for the 1st time myself, and I want to go back, one way. Scotland is a phenomenal, mystical land. Alba Gu Bràth🏴
Aye. I know that feeling, that urge to 'go home' to Scotland. It is always the side of a large hill at the beginning of mountains, covered with purple flowers. When I was a child we would visit our Scots-Irish relatives. Back then they had no electricity and had to entertain themselves around a fire, with fiddles and singin' ... I remember the sound of rain, the sounds a tin roof makes as water droplets crash on it. Dirt poor but proud and free.
Never before has writing an email applying for a job been so epic. In the cutthroat world of job application at the moment this battle music is well suited.
I have found the song to play at my wedding. Irish/Welsh but getting married near Scotland 👍🏻 Love this epic track and makes me want to rally the troupes 😁
My great,great grandmother's maiden name was Sinclair. Her ancestors, St. Claire's had to flee Scotland. This music is the heritage of a nation that was fought for, and wrested from English tyranny. The men,and women who shed their blood for their freedom, and the freedom of their families, friends,and fellow countrymen are honored by this majestic tune.
@Franklyn Nelson This is where my curiosity has led me. As an artist your comment put an image of a sword wielding Irish-woman standing against an army of English soldiers, as a she's backed by an army of Irish-men.
@@franklynnelson2285 Yeah, sorry. Not sure why I read that as "Irish." Doesn't make the imagery less striking. A Scottish maiden with her claymore stabbed in the earth, the melody of bagpipes and armed Scotsman at her back. All while they stand defiantly against charging English army men. Now I've got research to do since I want to give this fictional depiction a solid foundation.

had my English Beagle listen to this, now's it's a Scottish Deerhound.
He evolved!
What! Your _English Beagle_ is evolving!!!
*Congratulations!!!*
Your _English Beagle_ evolved to _Scottish Deerhound_ !!!!!
Once his balls drop, he'll be an Irish wolfhound 🤔😂
Rob Jones yer not funny. Not even bit
@@otto4255 sounds like something a Scotsman would say 🤷🏼♂️
This made drinking my morning coffee more INTENSE
Exactly... That is it though... Sitting in traffic jam and getting excited for no reason
Juan Valdez approves.
Your comment gives me hope in knowing that I'm not the only one.
Charlie Shabs in the internet, you are always not the only one 👌🏻
Sustenance for the battle ahead
"It's called a kilt... if i was wearing something underneath THEN it would be a skirt."
A jock strap maybe, you have to keep the clan jewels warm and cosy in winter, frost bite is worse than a good kicking there by Ranger fans... Just saying...
@@johngrindley169 like i said that would make it a skirt. it's called going traditional. (But exceptions to the rule are made at times like winter in Canada)
Amen!

I don't usually leave comments on youtube, but if the creator of this music ever reads this, I'd like him to know that I've been absolutely obsessed with it for 3 years and that it's one my go-to musics when I don't know what to listen.
This makes me feel so strong inside . This is like battle music. This is beautiful. My family names were midkiff and o'neal came over from ireland as Quakers. Man this song makes me proud of my irish people.
The best homework music to listen to. Others listen to Mozart or other music to fall asleep too. I see this as good "Battle music" as i struggle to even understand what is going on with my homework.
By far the best Christmas song ever
No, best yule music ever
Well Christmas and Halloween was inspired by Celts and Irish

Native American here, and I can see war paint and bows and arrows kicking Custer's ass to this shit. Ya'll f- ing rock my friends.
Michael Hawkins, we Irishmen and Scots support you my friend💪🙌
🤟
Vikings were earlier on the American continent than ''Native'' Americans. Not your ''peoples'' land.
@@Zgmflegend Dude...
@Michael Hawkins, a wee bit of FYI, Mate. My paternal granmum was a Hawkins and I found out in doing genealogies that the family name 'Hawkins' originates in or around Inverness, Scotland, ...which makes you Scottish, Lad. Therefore, you can legitimately wear the Inverness District tartan with your Native regalia. Hoot mon🏴 Slàinte Mhath
Everyone in this comments section talking about being Scottish and Irish... Shoutout to all the Welsh and Cornish guys anyone?
Not any of the above but mad respect ✌️
As a Welshman, I appreciate your comment.
What about Brittany in France?
Fuck, I'm Welsh, Scottish, AND goddammed Irish!!! Celt all the fooookin wheeeeey!
Mike Calhoun yes my mate the same . Makes for an interesting Six-nations.
Holy crap! I would never imagine how someone would fit celtic with metal but you did it with perfection!
Dropkick Murphys does it well too
Eluveitie, Korpiklaani, Ars amandi, Cruachan.... you have to much work
@@ohwiseone142 eh, they're more punk than metal. At least from what I've heard.
@@superberna842 Love Eluveitie!
I am a serious metalhead and I DON'T hear a metal influence. Definitely a "Rock" edge to this but not metal
After about 13 years roaming youtube, I can say that this, wich I discovered like 3 years ago, is the best original music I've found here. Just incredible
This is one the most beautiful metal compositions I’ve ever heard.
Sometimes the next random play of TH-cam offers you things that have nothing to do with what you was listening...
But it makes you discover something wonderful!
That's true, and I wonder why does it happen🤔
That's true, and I wonder why does it happen🤔
True. I discovered Antti while listening to Wrestling Music. This one, in fact. It was in the recommended list under the music for Sheamus.
The will of the electric gods. :)
Finally a good song to listen to while taking the holy lands
We will take jerusalem
Deus vult!
"The last stand" and "In the name of god", my brother, DEUS VUL !! |T|/
"stay out of my room mom! im taking the holy lands! bitch!"

Sublime as my beloved 'Clannad´ music! Never heard such sublime celtic rock music; so: really very well done, Antti! Greetings and best wishes from Berlin, Germany!
Love this song....makes my ancient Celtic blood course through my veins!!!
Me too dude mines boiling now excuse me while I go punch this grizzly in the throat
I grew a beard while listening to this. And I'm a woman.

LOL
Best answer....ever.
This means that the music is to long so you became a old woman
super,je suis une femme et une maman de 57 ans et j'adore,c'est une musique trés dynamique et entrenante
Tu est bretone?
4:58 is the first time I felt like a song needed a fight scene to go with it.
When this video was over, I realized I was wearing a kilt, and had the blood of Englishmen on my sword. I don't even own a sword...
William Ogle 😁😁😁
I like how you're most surprised by the fact that you have a sword when you don't own one and not the English people you've killed with it.
Now that could be a problem. That kilt could blow up in a stiff breeze.
Just means you're getting air in ya pipes.
Wait there's people who don't own a sword???
Jamming to this driving in a thunderstorm, yeah that's perfect
No other way to do it. Unless you're on a longboat in the raging sea battling a fabled beast of the deep waters.
So, two questions. Where the hell did this claymore come from? And why do I have the sudden urge to use it on an Englishman?
Don't overthink it, man. We'll stand with you!
That's Americans but with muskets :D.
"There can be only one."
@@harshman6530 i love highlander in the morning
Even though I am a Londoner, I think you shouldn't waste your ammo like that.
After listening to this song, the little garden I watered this morning is now a magical, enchanted wood full of mist and fog. It’s wild with dancing fairies, wil-o-wisps, wizards, and talking trees!
Still coming back to this badass composer from time to time.
I'm English and I love the Irish and Scottish culture... So please don't kill me lol
Spain,France,and Turkey have a Crapton of Celtic too but not so much in Turkey but still
Your Allowed To Like What You Like
you're a good lad we wont strike you down when we take back me motherland
All the Anglish say that! Beware lads it be a trick! If she be really into our ways, let her make and eat a Black Pudding!
Aye, we're all drunks. And start fights about religion.
I listened to this once
*I now feel like a king, ready to go into battle and fight shoulder-to-shield with my people for what is right and just*
@janis vogel And you are not? Leave people be.
This music just grabs your heart and doesn't let go. Just at the point you start to relax a little, it kicks right back up again! AWESOME!!!!!!
for some really weird reason i keep imagining Toothless playing guitar
edit: if your DM plays this song right as a battle is starting, BUCKLE UP.
that’s an epic mental image
I saw a hif of that on facebook and it was adorable
I keep seeing him as an A-10 Warthog.
Yee-hah, excellent image
That would be awesome.
Wow. The music. The landscape. It's all magic.
As a Welshman, Celtic music has always resounded extremely well with me...plus I love metal so... 10/10
its in our blood
Oh fuck I was not expecting music this good when I clicked.
My cellphone was turned into a sword from this masterpiece! Excellent!
Maggie Shannon A yes. A sword made of pure Nokium. A truly terrifying force to behold.
Now go slay alduin
My phone didn’t transform... did I do it wrong? Is my phone broken?
Ah, so it's a variant of Jackson's Anaklusmos, yes?
I have a problem. Ever since I started listening to Antti's music, all other music bores me.
Every time I hear this, I start dancing. And by dancing I mean Celtic dancing, which I don't know how to do from a hole in the wall physically. It's...just something I KNOW. Inside. Since I was a child I've had the need to see Scotland. I'm destined to place my feet on the hills where my ancestors walked. And nothing will stop me.
Go for it, ...Go to Scotland. I went in 2015 for the 1st time myself, and I want to go back, one way. Scotland is a phenomenal, mystical land. Alba Gu Bràth🏴
I've lived in Scotland almost all of my life and I can say it can be an awesome place.... when it's not raining
One word O'Neill
Aye. I know that feeling, that urge to 'go home' to Scotland. It is always the side of a large hill at the beginning of mountains, covered with purple flowers.
When I was a child we would visit our Scots-Irish relatives. Back then they had no electricity and had to entertain themselves around a fire, with fiddles and singin' ... I remember the sound of rain, the sounds a tin roof makes as water droplets crash on it. Dirt poor but proud and free.
I played this song in the Desert, & now its Forest!
This track is some of the best music in existence.
I love it how rock music goes so well with my family’s history
Convince me I'm wrong: Celtic metal is the ultimate carpe diem that our generation needs. INSPIRE AND ASPIRE my fellows, upvote if you agree.
Yes
Carpe canum
After this comment I'm definitely checking out that Gene. This music is amazing lol
I can do anything listening to this great celtic music. Never give up. Charge on ride our horses 😊
This song caused a longsword and a kilt to materialize in my room out of pure, concentrated Scottishness.
@Toa Hero, this is Irish music. Those are Irish uilleann pipes, NOT Scots cat-killers.
This music gave me a longsword, if you know what I mean
Dude, it made my longsword rise up and rip the front of my kilt!
I believe you mean a Claymore. A highlander greatsword.
@@davecrupel2817 Thank ye Daniel, my Claymore stood up at attention!
I have the sudden urge to go start a bar fight in an Irish pub
I'll look for your obituary. American man tries to start war with literally all of Ireland.
halo1989100 that sounds even better lol
Hahaha Guess you're still alive.
Me too but that's just a Friday for me.
Try a Claymore kick ; )
Never before has writing an email applying for a job been so epic. In the cutthroat world of job application at the moment this battle music is well suited.
Good luck with your job hunt.
Good luck!!! That's funny, this is my job app soundtrack too, and I saw your comment! :)
incredible sound
I have found the song to play at my wedding. Irish/Welsh but getting married near Scotland 👍🏻 Love this epic track and makes me want to rally the troupes 😁
must have been the most epic wedding in the world
Ireland and wales are still Celtic
Lots of Muslims in Scotland or only in England?
@@scintillam_deimainly England, not sure in Scotland, how do I know, coz I a Muslim living in England
Awesome! This makes me proud I'm half Celt! It taps into the heart of the rich musical heritage...
My great,great grandmother's maiden name was Sinclair. Her ancestors, St. Claire's had to flee Scotland. This music is the heritage of a nation that was fought for, and wrested from English tyranny. The men,and women who shed their blood for their freedom, and the freedom of their families, friends,and fellow countrymen are honored by this majestic tune.
@Franklyn Nelson
This is where my curiosity has led me. As an artist your comment put an image of a sword wielding Irish-woman standing against an army of English soldiers, as a she's backed by an army of Irish-men.
@@DemonicRemption Scottish, not Irish. Huge difference.
@@franklynnelson2285
Yeah, sorry. Not sure why I read that as "Irish." Doesn't make the imagery less striking. A Scottish maiden with her claymore stabbed in the earth, the melody of bagpipes and armed Scotsman at her back. All while they stand defiantly against charging English army men.
Now I've got research to do since I want to give this fictional depiction a solid foundation.
I have no idea how I got here TH-cam but I love you
