Yes I know what you are talking about. I am german and Heilung takes you directly by the balls, even if you don't have any. But in a good way xD It goes directly in your body, in your soul and your DNA. I feel that.
Maria Franz is dressed in a hand made traditional costume dating back 1000yrs or so. She represents a Scandinavian Volvá or prophetess. A Seer, highly respected and equally feared.
She is a vocalist with other bands as well such as Euzen(check out Phobia by Euzen, Maria on vocals and quite different from Heilung) and with a trio called Songleikr - Ulvetime (Hour of the Wolf). Both are on TH-cam.
@@ba-gg6jo Yes, her other projects are amazing and equally amazingly diverse! I hope Songleikr does more as I know Heilung keeps her and Christopher Juul very busy.
"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"
The song's title can be found in the Mesogothic Anglo-Saxon glossary as "In-Maidjan", which means "deceptively change" or "corrupt". This makes sense since the entire story within the album consists of a peaceful village that is corrupted by having to go to war. Therefore, Proto-Germanic seems to be the language. Harigasti Teiwa Harigasti Teiwa "is a clear Germanic reference to the Negau helmet. This helmet contains several Etruscan alphabet inscriptions that include the words" Harigasti teiwa which are the first words of the song. This could be translated as Harigast (the priest) although it could also mean, the priest of Teiwaz (Tyr). "Harigast" is often (not always) seen as a personal name and that it could be made up of the words "harjaz" (army, troop, warband, war) and gastiz (stranger, guest). The forms "Hari" and "gast" is particularly found in west-germanic. As such the name could mean "war guest" or "foreign army". Tawol Athodu - I accept the invitation. Ek Erilaz - I am a runemaster. The word has been interpreted to mean magician or runemaster. The word is an ablaut variant of count and it is believed that it could be linguistically related to the name of the tribe of the Heruli or Herulos. The Heruli were a Germanic tribe from Scandinavia that was invaded by the Roman Empire in the 3rd century. So it is probably simply an old military title of Germanic provenance. Owlthuthewaz - owlthu (glorious) thewaz (servant). Means servant of the glorious Niwaremariz - Priest of the god "Ullr" / famous, renowned. From the proto-Germanic term Wulþuz (glory) wolþu- is possibly a reference to a God, surely the God Ullr. Saawilagar Hateka - My name is Sawilagaz. Harja - Army - leader of the army; commander; Warrior Wuotani Ruoperath Wuotani - Oh, Wodan! Ruoperath - famous and brilliant. This could be interpreted as the following: I, Priest Harigast. Aaccept the invitation (to battle) I am the Heruli. I am a renowned priest of Ullr. They call me Warrior. Oh, Wodan the famous and brilliant! The next chant are the names of the 24 Norse runes of the Elder Futhark. This is also known as runic song. Fehu, Uruz, Thurisaz, Ansuz, Raidho, Kenaz, Gebo, Wunjo, Hagal, Naudhiz, Isa, Jera, Eihwaz, Perthro, Algiz, Sowelu, Tiwaz, Berkano, Ehwaz, Mannaz, Laguz, Ingwaz, Dagaz, Othala. In English: Wealth, Aurochs, Thorn, Divine Breath, Travel, Torch, Gift, Joy, Hail, Need, Ice, Harvest, Tree, Luck, Elk, Sun, Creator, Birch tree, Horse, Man, Water, Fertility, Day, Home. Odin, prepare for battle! I am glad that you give this extremely exceptional Nordic group a chance. I tell you a little about its history. The group, which are two boys and one girl, have Norwegian, Danish and German nationality and uses instruments such as horns of different animals, drums, human bones, rattles with human ashes, bells, stones, all to go back to the first musical compositions that They were able to interpret 1,000 years ago, in the iron age in northern Europe. All the letters are taken from carved gadgets from the era of the Nordic iron, such as arrowheads, bows, swords, rune stones and recite poems and psalms of war, peace and protection. Whereupon and for this, heilung, which means healing in German, is in close collaboration with archaeologists specializing in the field. The languages used by heilung are several. Among them are Latin, Old Danish, German and English. They were so successful with their first album that they had to release a new live album, which includes 2 new songs. Also a video of that album live and in 2019 they released their second work, futha, which is a much more feminine work. His first album, Ofnir, is much more aggressive and masculine. During the concerts some representations of how these ancient rituals of the iron age could be made. Also just finished the soundtrack of the video game Hellblade 2. I hope this review helps you to understand a bit the context of this musical group. Some curiosities. When they built the drums for the group, one of which is made from horse skin, a doctor drew blood from the three members of the group and painted the drums and some of their clothes with it. The male singer with the deep voice is a great tattoo artist and very professional. The bones the girl plays with are human bones and sometimes they have had problems in the countries of the tour to introduce them through the border from the country where the concert was held. A hug.
Sincere thanks to you for the education you offer people (on all the Heilung reaction videos I’ve seen). Not sure if you are directly involved with the band in some capacity or if you are just affirming people’s open mindedness and spreading education and increasing insight out of your own generosity of spirit…. Regardless I see you and genuinely appreciate your efforts. sending love and respect your way
@@steves7102 No ... I have no connection with the Heilung band except for the passion for their music and, due to its complexity, I like to contribute so that people understand the context of the songs, as much disclosure as possible to the interpretation they do the different archaeologists and linguists who study the scarce written remains that were left by the peoples of northern Europe during the iron and bronze ages. Thank you very much for your respect and warm greetings.
woahhhh real blood! to form a real and unbreakable connection between the instrument and the owner. that sure is super awesome, like the wold ways. I see why listeners and fans adore them. Surely is something! thank you for sharing and checking out my reaction as well.
The major portion of this song is a repeating recitation of the 24 runes of the Elder Futhark, the Runes. They are creating a sacred space, a magic circle, for the power they raise within.
The style of the female singer is like a deity called Elen of the ways, would totally recommend checking her out ❤️ much love & blessings to all here ❤
Heilung means healing. I owe them my life, I got somewhat in tune when listening to them. Again, Heilung means healing. It might be a struggle but Heilung is a guiding star!
Imagine being a Roman soldier, cold, wet, hungry, hundreds of miles from home…and then you hear this coming from the trees…everyone’s a hamster until the trees start talking Germanic languages
Unsure If anyone has mentioned thus before, but it would be wrong to call Heilung a German band as the 3 main members are German, Danish and Norwegian.
Makes one really wonder what on earth made the romans believe that invading Germania was a good idea. Just imagine the romans who had a good chance of never having seen a forrest in their life before suddenly hearing the foggy forrests and swamps singing in Proto-Germanic
Well, Romans were in the position to be cocky, they were so skilled in their military. I would say their best defense wasn't their weaponry or their military training that often gave them an upper hand, I think it was their cohesiveness since so many of these northern tribes were scattered and divided. Rome did get owned a few times but I think they never would have stood a chance from the beginning against the Germanics if they were as orderly as the Romans since they also fought for fun and glory but were also bigger, stronger and more durable.
The Romans had forests too. Things like this just make me wish everyone could mind their own business rather feel the need to own what other people have.
Welcome to Heilung! There is much to explore. As another commenter pointed out, this is music you feel. Let it sink in. Glad you got over the initial shock. Enjoy!
Heilung is "healing" or "cure" in old German. Many of the "songs" are chants taken from ancient runestones (up to 3,000 years ago), and are generally chants in praise of the gods, prayers, and other rituals, with a few reluctant calls to war. One with some English lyrics is Krigsgaldr. It's mostly an admonishment to the neighboring tribe that attacked them. The "LIFA" (live) videos are always preferred
Seeing them live is a WHOLE another level! I got lucky to see them in Chicago last year with one of my friends before covid went super crazy. I had such a blast and was singling along to almost all the songs.
that's great to hear you had a blast! would attend too if I can, given by chance someday. Unfortunately, one thing, I can't sing a long with those lyrics. Maybe a hum? I wish for you and your friend to see them live once again! good luck
@@Kurisutah You do not need to sing in it, let the music and the words just flow into Your body. Even when You try to sing: "Fehu Uruz Thurisaz Ansuz Raidho Kenaz Gebo Wunjo Hagal Naudhiz Isa Jera Eihwaz Perthro Algiz Sowelu Tiwaz Berkano Ehwaz Mannaz Laguz Ingwaz Dagaz Othala" I bet You can not do it without a breathing interrupt :)
@@uchijini I find it amazing that Heilung can do it in one breath and their voices are _perfectly_ in step with each other throughout. Their breath control and chorusing is the best I’ve heard anywhere.
Hey! I am writing from Russia. I don’t know English, so I’m writing to google translate. I liked your reaction very much. Very lively and natural. You did not try to insert your "very important opinion", unlike others, but said whatever you wanted at the end of the video. This is right. I've been a fan of this band for about 2 years now. I hope you really enjoyed their work. I also recommend listening to Hamrer Hippyer, Krigsgaldr and Othan. These I liked the most. Although it would be nice if you listened to all their songs. Many thanks!
Thank you so much for your comment! I did say my opinion about them. I do respect all kinds of music. I do not see any reason to hate this band and their style of music. I'll check out yout reccomendations. You stay safe be safe! See you again
Hey! What you hear is original music from 780 BC They sing in several different dead Languages and in old english , protogermenic , German and so on....
Music doesn't need to be spoken in a language we understand - that's not what music truly is. It's an adventure of the mind and spirit. Heilung has the incredible talent to tap into a forgotten and primal world which they bring into the world with every one of their performances.
Heilung is great. High lung. LIFA live at Castlefest was their first ever live concert. I bought the blu-ray . Krigsgaldir Alfadhirhaiti Othan Hamrer hippyer All from the LIFA live concert. The window with the video clip is very small compared to the whole screen. It’s the most important.
Woot... going all Nordic! (the part of the world where I originate from) :) You mentioned doing a bit of background check on the band. For those who have never heard about them, they're a trio from Northern Europe. Norwegian, German and Danish. Their style is what they imagined bronze age music on steroids would have sounded like. I.e. a time period that predates the vikings (The concert, that the video is from, was their first ever live performance). They've since done more live performances all over the world, although they DO have problems getting through customs because of their instruments. Maria (the singer) often plays on a human forearm bone and the rattles have human ashes in them. The drums are covered in horse skin and gets regularly repainted with the blood of the band members. Things that tends to make customs agents give weird looks in the airport I could imagine :P Greetings from Brisbane Edit: The set list of songs from their concert tells a story about a peaceful village that gets threatened by their neighbours and eventually, reluctantly, take up arms and become fierce warriors.
@@Kurisutah True. The only place I've seen with tougher checks are the Kiwis... New Zealand customs once pulled a pair boy scouts (probably around 12 years old, no idea where they were from) out of the line in front of me and humiliated them publicly in the airport arrival hall. One of them had a bag of jelly beans he hadn't declared.
They aren't "German". The language or languages they speak in is Germanic. Whether it's Icelandic, Norwegian, Swedish, Finnish, Dutch, or most commonly in their songs..Old Norse. They are a traditional viking band. I myself am from Reykjavik, Iceland 🇮🇸 and I'm a direct descendant of Leif Eriksson. Lifi lengi víkingarnir
Don't call them a Viking Band. Viking Literally Translates to Sailor. So they would just be called NORSE meaning From the North. You should already KNOW This. 🙄
Tell us you know nothing about Nordic history without telling us you know nothing about Nordic history. Something truly makes me doubt you're Icelandic and I'm very certain you're not a direct descendant of Leif Eriksson. Come on, dude
Welcome to your past 😜 Feel healed after you hear them. The name means Healing in German. They bring nothing but good vibes. They follow the old path with the old God's. That's how we all did for thousands of years until certain people wanted to control the people through the fear of hell or an everlasting paradise. We are much more than that. Check out some Wardruna they are a little softer but truly wonderful.
Its totally normal to feel a mix of emotions and feelings including nervousness, fear, sadness, anything you feel is valid. whatever you feel, don't fight it, let it in. Heilungs music awakens, and heals a part of your soul that you aren't even aware of. Just enjoy the ride.
Though the music was a bit delayed from your actual reaction near the end of the video, this is still a very enjoyable reaction. So thank you, young lady, for this enjoyable content 🙂👍
The music is taken from actual engraving that was found upon rocks from the ancient times, they engraved rituals, spells (Pagan) etc. Im from Wales but my DNA takes me back the the viking came from and as we know the word viking means raider or pirate. I have always been drawn towards the viking ways (paganism) since I was young and then I found out my origins started out from Scandinavia. In Maidjan--- For this invocation I the Rune Master, Servant of Odin call upon The one of the Sun to aid our army.... So basically they are chanting about the Magical Runs and asking Odin the help their army.
Kuresti be strong 💪 and careful with this virus out there okay 👌 in so many city's and countries now focus on your cool video's and with time this virus can be over soon so rock those great video's for yours
how would one Phonetically spell out or pronounce In Maidjan? been having a real hard time trying to find how its actually Pronounced verbally, alot of people are unsure, or is how they are saying it actually accurate in the first place?
it was kinda weird after doing that reaction, or maybe because my room became dark coz the sun went down, or perhaps that I was alone while watching this for the first time that made me feel something, I did turn on all the lights in every nook afterwards, for my own comfort, eventually felt better the next day
@Kurisutah, no need to feel afraid, it was probably one of the old Nordic gods dropping by in appreciation of how much you seemed to enjoy the music 😊 they are a really cool bunch ❤ ❤❤ if you still felt spooked you could ask Lady Freya ( one of the most beloved Nordic deities) to help you feel safe, she is very sweet & kind but takes no shit & will kick ass ❤❤❤ nothing evil or bad about her at all ( in my humble experiences & opinion). Absolute best of wishes to you & may you be blessed with a wonderful & protected & prosperous & healthy life ❤
I enjoyed watching your reaction to this band, I love seeing you move your body to the sound that was 👍 and you got goosebumps when she started to sing I know cause I got chills the first time hearing her sing

Those early settlers met my Irish ancestors and then I came into being way down the line. Showed this band to my mom who keeps an extensive knowledge on our ancestry, she looks at me and is like well of course you feel this.
3:22 These are Ancient Tribal Stories and Ritual Demonstrations from the People of the North. It is to be take Seriously and Respectfully. The Band's Name Means HEALING, there is Nothing to be afraid of, Nothing Evil or Manipulative is happening. All Instruments are HAND MADE from Bone and Animal Skins, the Only Electronics Used are Mics and Speakers. I understand, they look a bit Scary or Odd and as a Result many Mock Them due to not being able to Truly Understand What is Happening.
That´s maybe also the sound you heared if realizing sitting in a cooking pot some thousand years before!? (And you looked in the beginning like the ancient DNA in yourself realized that) :-/
Didn’t know you are in Melbourne you need to react to the band Jinjer.They played in Melbourne in 2019 right before Covid.Try their song Pisces live session about 55 million views then Judgement and and Punishment live Melbourne.They are a female led metal band from Ukraine but everything is in English.They are touring the USA right now
Bagpipes were horrifying to hear to the British when they heard it in Scotland then they banned bagpipes because the sound would travel for miles in the hills and mountains of Scotland and terrified the enemy
It may make you uneasy but as a northern European this music reaches in and grabs me by the DNA.
Yes I know what you are talking about. I am german and Heilung takes you directly by the balls, even if you don't have any. But in a good way xD It goes directly in your body, in your soul and your DNA. I feel that.
German by blood, my great grandma came from Germany. It's grabbed me too
Saaaaaame...

I'd say she's full of power and might, that's what she looks
@@Kurisutah if i am not entirely misstaken this is called "Futhark" a old Germanic language that was spoken and/or writen back in the 8th century!
@@MaroxThePatrik the futhark is the runic alphabet, the language is old norse, which is quite close to modern Icelandic.
@@ba-gg6jo Yes, her other projects are amazing and equally amazingly diverse! I hope Songleikr does more as I know Heilung keeps her and Christopher Juul very busy.

"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"
It's actually older, much older than the medieval period.

The word is an ablaut variant of count and it is believed that it could be linguistically related to the name of the tribe of the Heruli or Herulos. The Heruli were a Germanic tribe from Scandinavia that was invaded by the Roman Empire in the 3rd century. So it is probably simply an old military title of Germanic provenance.
Owlthuthewaz - owlthu (glorious) thewaz (servant). Means servant of the glorious
Niwaremariz - Priest of the god "Ullr" / famous, renowned. From the proto-Germanic term Wulþuz (glory) wolþu- is possibly a reference to a God, surely the God Ullr.
Saawilagar Hateka - My name is Sawilagaz.
Harja - Army - leader of the army; commander; Warrior
Wuotani Ruoperath Wuotani - Oh, Wodan! Ruoperath - famous and brilliant.
This could be interpreted as the following:
I, Priest Harigast.
Aaccept the invitation (to battle)
I am the Heruli.
I am a renowned priest of Ullr.
They call me Warrior.
Oh, Wodan the famous and brilliant!

They sing in several different dead Languages and in old english , protogermenic , German and so on....
Seriously one of the best reaction videos I've ever seen!
that's so sweet thank you so much!
It's funny that you were intimidated by their appearance. The first time I saw them I was like, "My people!"
Luv ya girlie! Great reaction. Hey Nidels - good on ya! Best history I’ve seen. Back to you girlie - hugs and kisses. You’re so sweet.
If you enjoyed this, try Krigsgaldr and Alfadhirhaiti they are also fantastic tunes too.
you might enjoy Aurora and Wardruna playing the song Helvegen, a gentler Nordic sound. but there are a lot more Heilung tracks to listen to as well
Music doesn't need to be spoken in a language we understand - that's not what music truly is. It's an adventure of the mind and spirit. Heilung has the incredible talent to tap into a forgotten and primal world which they bring into the world with every one of their performances.
Heilung is great. High lung. LIFA live at Castlefest was their first ever live concert. I bought the blu-ray .
Krigsgaldir
Alfadhirhaiti
Othan
Hamrer hippyer
All from the LIFA live concert.
The window with the video clip is very small compared to the whole screen. It’s the most important.
thanks you, I hope you understand the video has to be kept that way to avoid copyright issues
@@Kurisutah most reviewers didn’t have problems with Heilung videos
Thats pregerman. A reconstructed form of a language ca.3000 years ago. Baset in todays central germany.
Great reaction! You were so into it that you were having physical reactions! If you liked this I would also reccomend Shpongle.
I was, I had goosebumps and felt like someone else was there with me ?
@@Kurisutah so cool! So emotional!
Woot... going all Nordic! (the part of the world where I originate from) :)
You mentioned doing a bit of background check on the band. For those who have never heard about them, they're a trio from Northern Europe. Norwegian, German and Danish. Their style is what they imagined bronze age music on steroids would have sounded like. I.e. a time period that predates the vikings (The concert, that the video is from, was their first ever live performance).
They've since done more live performances all over the world, although they DO have problems getting through customs because of their instruments. Maria (the singer) often plays on a human forearm bone and the rattles have human ashes in them. The drums are covered in horse skin and gets regularly repainted with the blood of the band members. Things that tends to make customs agents give weird looks in the airport I could imagine :P
Greetings from Brisbane
Edit: The set list of songs from their concert tells a story about a peaceful village that gets threatened by their neighbours and eventually, reluctantly, take up arms and become fierce warriors.
especially not allowed in Australia I guess, they'll be part of that show where they show band luggage from passengers arriving at the airport
@@Kurisutah True. The only place I've seen with tougher checks are the Kiwis... New Zealand customs once pulled a pair boy scouts (probably around 12 years old, no idea where they were from) out of the line in front of me and humiliated them publicly in the airport arrival hall. One of them had a bag of jelly beans he hadn't declared.
They aren't "German". The language or languages they speak in is Germanic. Whether it's Icelandic, Norwegian, Swedish, Finnish, Dutch, or most commonly in their songs..Old Norse. They are a traditional viking band. I myself am from Reykjavik, Iceland 🇮🇸 and I'm a direct descendant of Leif Eriksson. Lifi lengi víkingarnir
Their blood runs in yours, pretty awesome right
Swap Dutch with Danish and you got it right
"they are a traditional viking band" is the worst thing I've ever heard anyone call Heilung.
Don't call them a Viking Band. Viking Literally Translates to Sailor. So they would just be called NORSE meaning From the North. You should already KNOW This. 🙄
Tell us you know nothing about Nordic history without telling us you know nothing about Nordic history. Something truly makes me doubt you're Icelandic and I'm very certain you're not a direct descendant of Leif Eriksson. Come on, dude
Primal fear unlocked: Mongolian Raids.
That was priceless reaction- thank you!
This is our rotes, our history.
Welcome to your past 😜 Feel healed after you hear them. The name means Healing in German. They bring nothing but good vibes. They follow the old path with the old God's. That's how we all did for thousands of years until certain people wanted to control the people through the fear of hell or an everlasting paradise. We are much more than that. Check out some Wardruna they are a little softer but truly wonderful.
Please listen to Norupo you really get to hear just how beautiful Maria’s voice is.
I was surprised no one else mentioned this one.... I played Norupo at my wedding!
Esperé tanto esta reacción. Me encanta!
thank u @Marcus! welcome to my channel, you stay safe
I saw them live Nov 2019, best gig/ritual I have ever been to :)
when you say ritual, I want to check them out too
Its totally normal to feel a mix of emotions and feelings including nervousness, fear, sadness, anything you feel is valid. whatever you feel, don't fight it, let it in. Heilungs music awakens, and heals a part of your soul that you aren't even aware of. Just enjoy the ride.
15:00 Go back further way before Medieval age to the Iron age. That is where a lot of the language comes from.
Though the music was a bit delayed from your actual reaction near the end of the video, this is still a very enjoyable reaction. So thank you, young lady, for this enjoyable content 🙂👍
Thank you for your comment! Glad you enjoyed! Have a good weekend!
Europeans were once a tribal people one as well.
They are singing the names of the old god’s before Christianity arrived in Europe
European tribes are way too cool to be called a tribe hehe lol
5:46 There You Go, NOW You Understand, and it is BEAUTIFUL ! 😎💪
I love Heilung
you are a nice one. I love Heilung and their songs. please react to another song of them. Greetings from Germany,You did a great Job. 🙂
Beautiful sound
Also, Translation of this song is called War magic
Fun reaction, definitely subscribing!
Yay! Thank you so much!
The music is taken from actual engraving that was found upon rocks from the ancient times, they engraved rituals, spells (Pagan) etc. Im from Wales but my DNA takes me back the the viking came from and as we know the word viking means raider or pirate. I have always been drawn towards the viking ways (paganism) since I was young and then I found out my origins started out from Scandinavia. In Maidjan--- For this invocation I the Rune Master, Servant of Odin call upon The one of the Sun to aid our army.... So basically they are chanting about the Magical Runs and asking Odin the help their army.
You've witnessed your first Norse ritual, gratz :3
Eskimo callboy put out a new song "We Got The Moves" about 4-5 weeks ago.
This is SPARTA!.... sorry i mean Denmark, Germany, Norway....ehem
to war!
everytime i listen to this i feel like getting on a boat and raiding the british isles
shall we sail and fight in the war? hehhe
High-lung
Kuresti be strong 💪 and careful with this virus out there okay 👌 in so many city's and countries now focus on your cool video's and with time this virus can be over soon so rock those great video's for yours
thanks that's so sweet! you too be safe! and see you again soon
Music bringing you into Trance...
how would one Phonetically spell out or pronounce In Maidjan? been having a real hard time trying to find how its actually Pronounced verbally, alot of people are unsure, or is how they are saying it actually accurate in the first place?
Gotta love the music of the northern European pagan culture, I love love this
very interesting, spiritual and hypnotic. I´m glad, they didn´t sacrife an animal onstage. pronounciaton is " hi lung". hope you revovered from that.
it was kinda weird after doing that reaction, or maybe because my room became dark coz the sun went down, or perhaps that I was alone while watching this for the first time that made me feel something, I did turn on all the lights in every nook afterwards, for my own comfort, eventually felt better the next day
@Kurisutah, no need to feel afraid, it was probably one of the old Nordic gods dropping by in appreciation of how much you seemed to enjoy the music 😊 they are a really cool bunch ❤ ❤❤ if you still felt spooked you could ask Lady Freya ( one of the most beloved Nordic deities) to help you feel safe, she is very sweet & kind but takes no shit & will kick ass ❤❤❤ nothing evil or bad about her at all ( in my humble experiences & opinion).
Absolute best of wishes to you & may you be blessed with a wonderful & protected & prosperous & healthy life ❤
4:33 "Should i continue?" Bwahaha yes it's only going to get better, much better
I enjoyed watching your reaction to this band, I love seeing you move your body to the sound that was 👍 and you got goosebumps when she started to sing I know cause I got chills the first time hearing her sing
listen to hamrer hippyer, looks like a pre historic rave, subscribed
thanks for subscribing Bolseiro, See you on the next one once again
9:35 They are just getting STARTED.... 🤯😉😂

They were singing the runes, so you won't understand if you don't know the runes.
Cool reaction! Check out Neurupo if you haven't already. (The music theme is from way before the medieval periods. ;) )

Pls React to heilung krigsgaldr this is half in english or wardruna and aurora - helvegen
"It's finally over". :-D
Those early settlers met my Irish ancestors and then I came into being way down the line. Showed this band to my mom who keeps an extensive knowledge on our ancestry, she looks at me and is like well of course you feel this.
3:22 These are Ancient Tribal Stories and Ritual Demonstrations from the People of the North. It is to be take Seriously and Respectfully. The Band's Name Means HEALING, there is Nothing to be afraid of, Nothing Evil or Manipulative is happening. All Instruments are HAND MADE from Bone and Animal Skins, the Only Electronics Used are Mics and Speakers. I understand, they look a bit Scary or Odd and as a Result many Mock Them due to not being able to Truly Understand What is Happening.
That was really spacey! But well said:)
That´s maybe also the sound you heared if realizing sitting in a cooking pot some thousand years before!? (And you looked in the beginning like the ancient DNA in yourself realized that) :-/
Channeling my ancestors both native and viking.
Didn’t know you are in Melbourne you need to react to the band Jinjer.They played in Melbourne in 2019 right before Covid.Try their song Pisces live session about 55 million views then Judgement and and Punishment live Melbourne.They are a female led metal band from Ukraine but everything is in English.They are touring the USA right now
iv'e watched that, she's a monster! so cool!
Bagpipes were horrifying to hear to the British when they heard it in Scotland then they banned bagpipes because the sound would travel for miles in the hills and mountains of Scotland and terrified the enemy
Lifehouse band hanging by A moment
Moin aus Schleswig-Holstein.
now she know to jam :D
This is God's old music
My First reaction was: i must thinking about turkic troat singing.
🤣
You say that you don’t get it, but you do!
Try Norupo or Aeona . A lot Less scary maybe 😂😂
This is why the romans were terrified of my ancestors
😁🤟
