With Heilung, I turn off my musician/analytical brain and just experience them. Maria, the redhead with the dreads, did an hour long interview with Elizabeth from The Charismatic Voice channel and said it takes her an hour to get ready. She talks a lot about how the group gets their inspiration. They’re a fascinating group.
that charismatic voice chat was dope. would recommend
Elizabeth, and her channel, are 😎! 👍
In Maidjan really shows Maria's vocal ability. She is incredible.
Definitely should be the next one!
I concur,
Next after send'm to battle with Alfadhirhaiti.
I don't know- I'm a huge fan of Norupo. Anoana is magical as well =)
@@agirlnamedmichael1670 th-cam.com/video/YESOpmCrkXA/w-d-xo.html
Oldie but a goodie.
Anoana is now my new favorite of theirs I think, it's just so beautiful and incredible.
"He plays it with an antler?!" Maria: "Hold my human bones..." :D
🤣 That's awesome.
"I'm in a band."
"What instrument do you play?"
"It's complicated."
It never ceases to amaze me that Maria taps those bones for the entirety of the song. In Maidjan is an amazing song as well - you should really check it out.
So what instrument do you play?
Maria: The bones of our enemies.
Yep, metal without guitars 🤟🏻
@@deed5811 I find it hilarious iTunes actually lists their album Ofnir as "Metal". Of course, they had some Nine Inch Nails under "Electronica/Dance" for a while so...
Three core members..this was their first gig as a band. It was the first gig EVER for one of them.
They also began preparing for the show three days in advance. I read that somewhere, but I can't find the source now.
The three main members of this group are from Germany,Denmark and Norway. 🙂 Excellent pronunciation of "krigsgaldr" by the way 👌
My wife and I saw them last year. It was incredible!! This whole show, Lifa, is brilliant. It is more a ritual than a concert.
To explain a little where you can classify "Heilung"( it means "Healing"):
The music of Heilung should make "sounds and sounds of bygone times" come alive again and bring you in contact with your "inner healed self".
This is not only limited to the music, but also to the poems contained.
The languages used are diverse: from German and English to Gothic and Latin to proto-Norse.
As a further stylistic device, the band members wear elaborately designed traditional costumes on stage.
They are partly based on the "spiritual traditions of the Eurasian circumpolar peoples" or reproduce historically correct images of Viking Age clothing.
Heilung describe their music as "amplified history". You can take that literally. On the stage of the German-Danish collective you will find
human bones converted into instruments, ancient drums, bronze rings and sometimes entire armies armed with shields and swords based
on the material of the Iron and Viking Age.
Because some Misguided see music about ancient times and the use of Nordic symbolism as an invitation to missionary, nationalistic
and right-wing extremist ideas, Heilung emphasizes that their art is independent of modern political and religious systems. Any attempt to
make a connection is "pointless" as Heilung "tries to connect the listener to the time before Christianity and its political offspring
raped and burned their way into the Northern European mentality."
One doesn't go to a Heilung concert. One attends a Heilung ritual.
If you want to go see them live, they just announced their fall 2023 tour in the USA. Looks like it’s mostly in the eastern part of the United States. However, I have seen them live. They are incredible! It is definitely worth going to one of their rituals. I can’t explain it any better than it is just a spiritual experience!
Agree! I saw a ritual last year in North Carolina. It was an amazing spiritual experience!
I purchased my tickets to see them in October for the first time. I'm so excited!
Fun fact: this show was their first live recording. this fact alone blows my mind.
This was their first live performance at Castlefest, I believe. They make their own costumes. Some of their songs comes from Rune stones. Asja is a beautiful song, and amazing live. It is a song for healing.
Yes I also recommend looking up tenet it's really good song too
Yup, only had a few songs out befor Lifa, and they were all without showing the people, just animation.
I love Heilung! Their music is hypnotic and their videos are magical. Have you watch Anoana yet?
Nope, first I'm hearing of Anoana!! ✌🏽
One of the things that struck me was "lullaby of obliteration." A lullaby, something soothing, calm and innocent entwined with the concept of complete ENDING.
"So I can wake up with a smile, and peace in my heart."
This music is so primal, I'd love to see them live. Mesmerising to listen to and watch. The voices are amazing, especially the female vocalist, so clear and pure.
Heilung has touched my soul more than any other music… got to see their ceremony live & it was life changing!!! All their instruments are traditional, hand made & painted with their own blood, one of the instruments is strung with the hair of an Indian Chiefs daughter… they use real animal & human bones, they get their lyrics from old runes & coins. Heilung means healing… they are going back to our roots with spiritualism & spreading the word that we are all brothers.
Fun Fact:
This was Heilung's first EVER live show together as a band.🤯
When they came together, they came together STRONG👍
I had to come edit because Imma nerd:
05:50 one of the things I personally find very beautiful about the sounds they are making by clanging metal bits together, charms and cymbals is that it sounds VERY much like a blacksmiths forge when the men are at work. You hear rhythms and music tinging from the items they forge and in the Norse culture a blacksmith was held in HIGH regard. He was considered touched by the Gods for his ability to forge ore of the earth in a way that aided them in their conquests. A skill not many had.
As the song goes on and the battle commences the sound of the metal being forged into swords and axes is nearly deafening with its crescendo. I think this small but poetic touch is lost on a lot of listeners and they may not understand the power behind the sounds.
Heilung tours regularly. They have been in the USA and the UK. Heilung live performance is more than just a concert. It is a TRUE FULL EXPERIENCE because you feel like you are transported back in time and the beat of the drums and the energy all through your body! Heilung also makes spectacular produced videos of some of their songs. I recommend Narupo and the recent Anoana video.
I heard that they had issues with customs entering at least one country because of the human bones they use as instruments. Taking "authentic" to a new level!
They sing partly in proto-Germanic, which is a hypothesized ancestral language to German, Old Norse and English, and was reverse-engineered from modern languages.
They are incredible. I got to go to a Ceremony (live show) last year and it was one of the best experiences ever. Absolutely see them live if you can worth every penny.
I'm seeing them for the third time in November. Their show at Red Rocks Amphitheater two years ago was so fun!
Check out In Maidjan, Othan, and Anoana. They heavily feature the female singer, Maria and showcase her incredible vocal range. In Maidjan and Othan are both available live from this same concert. Honestly, the whole Lifa concert is a must but definitely check out In Maidjan and Othan.
I've seen them live twice.....it is an indescribable experience
The animated video for this song really helps understand the story they’re telling and the imagery is legit old Nordic stuff i believe. It’s really cool! Love heilung 🖤
Having seen them live, yes it is awesome (in the truest sense of the word). You feel the drums right through you. This vid is from their very first live performance ever, let that sink in.
As someone who has seen hundreds of live shows from plenty of different genres. Heilung was absolutely the top 3 live performances I have seen live. Absolutely amazing
I'm trying to get to their October show in Baltimore. Sounds incredible!!! ✌🏽
I love Heilung. They take me away to another world.
Heilung apparently means “healing”, according to their website. Yeah, this was their first big show (they’d played a few small SCA and Viking re-enactment events before).This whole concert is 🔥, I used to listen to this to hype myself up to play God Of War (2018)!
Heilung (German)....Healing......Krigsgaldr ..... Spiritual War Chants.....This LIFA Live Show was their FIRST Live Show ever !!!!.....Band Members are from Germany/Denmark and Norway.....LONG before the Vikings !....Maria Franz plays HUMAN Bones !....Faust,the Lead Singer,is also one of the Worlds Best TRIBAL TATTOO Artists!
Saw them last fall. seeing them live is a whole different world!
"This would be so cool to see live." Well tickets for their fall US tour just went on sale today, so...go check them out!
I have seen them live twice and have tickets for them in October. It is quite an experience.
If you love the “call-and-response” thing you GOTTA see them live. They make great use of it throughout the performance and it weaves everyone together into a tribe.
2022 Toronto show... First event after living on my couch like Brian Wilson for a couple of years during COVID. Phenomenal show. 🍄
That was their first ever concert in front of a large crowd. Also look at Faun from Germany. They did a Arte festival show over the weekend and it is on youtube. Pagan folk metal is the genre.
Love seeing your reaction to Heilung, my Brother. That music calls to us thru time, -doesnt it?
100%. Thank you!!
I would love to see them live, by all accounts it’s something very special. The video for the studio version of this song is well worth watching as it tells the story.
They are amazing live!
seen them live in Munich last December. Such an Amazing show and experience.
I love how Heilung interprets on ALL germanic/Norse tribes. Their so gs are very well researched.please do more 😂
I saw them live in Portland, OR. One of the coolest things I've ever experienced.
I bet that was DOPE!! I'd LOVE to see a live "ritual" (I've been told this is what their concerts are called?). Incredible music! ✌🏽
they have a drum, it's their biggest one, sitting in the middle of the stage, at the back, it's called Blott, thing is, they paint the frame of the drum with their own blood, every summer, now that's what i call passion
I will never get tired of watching reactions to Heilung and The Hu (if you haven't checked them out already lol). My dad showed me this video and I was just silent with my mouth hanging open, lol. Thanks for the reaction!
Liebe Grüße aus Schleswig-Holstein.
Ahhhh hallo aus Delaware! Grüße!!
Heilund doesn't have "shows", they preform rituals :)
They are about to tour! I'll finally see them 🖤🖤
The instruments they use are old traditional instruments, and the costumes they wear are all home made and based upon what has been historically proven to be how these proto germanic tribes would have dressed. The head dresses are actual headresses from some of the tribes still left in Northern Europe.
Just bought my ticket for Denver!
those bones are real man... its awesome!
Got tickets to see them. Tickets sell out fast
These guys also made music for the game Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice and will be making/are making music for the sequel to that game.
My ADHD loves Heilung's stage sets...'lookit all the cool *things*!'
The Heil is the force to overcome difficulties. Today usually used in context with illness as Heilung/ Healing.
Thus the saying "Hail to you".
so, like "Well met"
The bones Maria is playing at the start, the tick tick tick tick sound, those are human bones.
I think that time which they're representing is faaaar before Viking age...
And that was ther first live show they did, imagen what it have developed to now!
Right??! Would be amazing to see a live show now...I'm on the look out! ✌🏽
eivor, the last kingdom main theme live. she carries ages and centuries in her voice
The bones Maria plays are real human bobes, from the forearm!
Felt to hear this again, & ur reaction vid came up. Its an experience, isnt it. Im sure u have read comments re what their name means & nationalities etc.
Have u watched the music vid for this tune? U may like Anoana, another Pagan masterpiece.
I would Highly recomend Anoana, Asja, Norupo and Nesso from Heilung as well!
They have a song called Alfadhirhaiti also live from this same ahow it's a whole different but still just as amazing vibe. If you check them out again that live version is amazing and their song noropu
I had the privilege to see these folks live at Red Rock Amphitheatre. It was an experience I will never forget.
That must have been AMAZING!!! Hell yeah. I saw Gojira and Devin Townsend at Red Rock Amphitheatre and OMG, the acoustics are phenomenal. Any concert there is one you'll never forget. Thanks for watching and the comment! ✌🏽
Try their video version of Anaona
and if you want to try another band from this world try Faun with their song 'Gwydion'.
Yeah Basil Poledouris' score for Conan the Barbarian is epic
i had the huge luck and privelge of taking part in a ritual in thier first year when averything was till so new and raw.. it was phenominal the drums are so viseral in the small venue were were in
You'd like to see that live? If you're in the U.S. Heilung is coming back on tour USA by the end of the year, do not miss that opportunity to see them!
The whole Lifa show is Legendary. Castlefest 2017.
Norupo music video is dope!! 🔥
Heilung means Healing 😊 and that's exactly what happens to you at their concerts 🪶🌳🧙🔮🪄🗡️ it's an experience/ritual you never forget ❤
Many of the traditional ancient instruments you see them use- like the drum, they made themselves.
From what I understand, this song is about the Pagans of what is now the area of Germany, and their first contact with Christians. They attempted to interact peacefully, but the Christians "only understand the language of the sword". Eventually, the Pagans were largely slaughtered, and scattered across the globe, but not wiped out.
This is similar to Ireland and the story of St. Patrick, who "drove the Snakes from Ireland" (a euphemism for killing Pagans).
Heilung = Healing :D By the way, all those bones are real. The ones she is clicking in the beginning are human. The giant drum in the back is painted with their blood mixed into the paint.
They are touring in the US right now
Yep, we interviewed them in Baltimore last month! Please check out the interview when you have time: th-cam.com/video/IBsQushnY6k/w-d-xo.html
I have been listening to Omnia for ages, then a year or two ago Heilung came on the radar. I love them. Am I so wrong for having an older guy crush on Maria?
Heilung doesn't really do Viking Age stuff. They aim to recreate pre-Viking Age Germanic tribal music and ritual. Before there were Anglos, Saxons, and Danes, we were all inhabiting the same region pre-migrations. In fact, at one point, we were all fighting together against the Roman intrusion of the Germanic region.
It means healing
HEILUNG means healing in the old tounge.
Healing performing warhawk
Performed in the blacksmiths workshop, making weapons and prepering for war.
it is pre-viking-age...
To experience Heilung is to experiance a spiritual healing
You should try Akfadhir haiti song from the same live show as Krigsgaldr.
If you think this is gnarly, same show had songs called Hamrer Hippyer and Alfadhirhaiti.
Heilung = Healing
Vikings were the original metal artists for SURE
Heilung is german and means heeling. They sing in old nordic, englisch, german, gothic and latin.
Heilung = healing
they aktualy had glases. but more like a monocle to use on one eye found both in denmark sweden and norway made in mountain crystal and sometimes in slitlely greenish colored glas proberbly from boemen and poland. remember viking were not only warriors but also trades men goin as far as turkie russia ukraine south germany :)
I heard that some of the bones are actually human….causes some grief when they go through customs.
Krigsgaldr - loosely translates as War Spell.
Amazing "war song"
Forearms for the win!.. xD Best Band ever
Norupo, Anoana or Wardruna with Raido, Kvitravn and collab. with Aurora with the Song Helvegen.
Music from when METAL was BONES
The bones she is using are actual human bones. There are certain countries they cannot bring them into. And yes, they are truly amazing live!
They sing mostly in Proto Germanic which was spoken during the roman invasions and before. So not really viking age.
Jeremy. Home Free's put out a fun new song that will blow your headphones off with bass and it's not just Tim, Chance jumps in on the bass too. It's called "Skull And Bones." I think they're trying to pitch it to Ubisoft for the game.
Heilung refer to their music as "Amplified History"....Maria Franz performs like a pagan shaman and is magnificent, as are all the members........the majority of their music is sung in a proto Germanic-Scandinavian dialect
I've watched the full concert several times, but the ads do break the energy too much. Opening Ceremony starts the individual videos of the concert. There are plenty of shots for each person playing spread throughout the concert. So if you want a better look at something it'll eventually be shown.
It’s far far bevor the Vikings 😊
