well i discovered the music around a week ago and have to say ... y es manly tears are shedding :D 0:14 right down corner - the smile of the women after the crowd is impressed. ♥
I will never say this of a live version, I can't stand hearing the crowd. But this. This crowd. This is beautiful. This is a concert where the audience is just as important as the band.
I wish you could as well, as good as the music is the lyrics are better. It is absolutely impossible to describe them in English. Some of the songs are poetry, pure and simple.
I dont unterstand a word! But no matter! Thats so epic!!! The wohle band is happy and laughs! And the islandic symphony orchestra makes a wonderful job! WOW! Need more! My respect. Greetings from switzerland.
Drinking beer outdoors with my sword next to me, listening to Skàlmöld when its 22c and sunshine. Still get goosebumps for some reason. Must be cold finnish weather..
one of the many things i love about this video is the two, i presume, friends at 7:51 passionately singing along. One does the "barely contained while focused on the show" thing, and the other does his very best Animal impression while singing along.
And the guy in the hoodie next to "Animal" guy just looks around and shrugs his shoulders. He does not seem to know where he is in the time/space continuum.
This is still one of the best versions of any song I've heard. It's so incredibly well done in every aspect. THIS is how you use an orchestra for metal
I was introduced to this by an Icelandic colleague. I understand pretty much nothing of the lyrics, but I don't need to understand to realize it's awesome.
I just want to comment on how happy they all like while playing this. That's the feeling that everyone should always have. And then the real world kicks in and we realize it's just fleeting moments like this. Live to your best while you can. Love to all of you.
Tbh according to a study scientists have found that metal and classical music induce kinda the same feelings in people. They are both overbearing, loud, somewhat majestic in their ways kinds of music. So while you won't see mosh pits at opera houses (make it happen ppl, with white wigs and period clothing, come on) the feel is there certainly. Especially baroque classical era of music is like thta. Deep, somewhat dark, majesticc, just less intense than metal is and ofc less distorted
+Brother Captain Koravael I wouldn't have thought you would need a scientific study to tell you that, alot of metal musicians were inspired by traditional classical like Beethoven and Bach, so it's not that odd that it conveys the same feelings of grandeur and heavy emotions, imo metal is the true progeny of traditional classical, since most orchestral music written today is best described as musac (music with a purpose, i.e. soundtracks etc. whatever wictionary says it's not necessarily a derogatory term, it's actually a technical term in music describing a certain niche which is being filled currently either by electronica or orchestral music)
Why was this band not in my life earlier? It's fantastic! Although a Greek, the Norse history, culture, Sagas and tunes always felt close to my heart... Can't wait to visit Iceland this winter! \m/
Skálmöld got started in 2009.... and they went over the top from the very beginning. This short story just feels so long because all they do feels so damn great....
Mr.P Since my family came from Scotland and Iceland, not Ireland, we aren't scots-irish, it is very near to me. Love it. Starting to actually learn the language. It is really cool.
Best piece of music I've heard in 39 years. I might even start learning some Islandic. Until then... I'll grab my old guitar and play this song until my fingers will start bleeding. Cheers from Romania! You fucking rule, dudes!!!
The majority of folk metal bands are better live, simply for the atmosphere they're in. I saw skalmöld live and I must admit they are quite exceptional even within the folk metal genre.
to be honest, nearly every band sound better with an orchestra. but this is just pure awesomeness. i listen to this every single day since i saw them on december 13th in austria
Hey guys from Skálmöld. I found the recording of this concert by chance on youtube and watched it six times in full length. Then I bought the recording. So glad I have found you ! I still love to watch the concert on youtube from time to time, it gives me the energy when I am stuck in difficult tasks and need motivation. Please please come on tour soon to Germany!

Amazing. I discover Skálmöld today and I like them. When I was young the musical creativity was in California. Now it is in North Atlantic with bands such as Skálmöld but also Týr, Kaleo and others. The World is changing.

In 2012 i went to the Pary.San Open Air in Obermeier, Germany, one of the biggest extrem metal festifals worldwide, and Skalmöld played there... i didnt know them yet, but they played after a grindcore band and opend with Vallöl, and i just stood there and was fllashed by the amazing clear voice opener and the rest of the concert... after that i saw them on Ragnaröck 2013 in Lichtenfels, Germany and on the Eluveitie Origins tour in Geiselwind, Germany and they were always my main act... i try to introduce them to as many people as possible :D :D :D in Geiselwind i could talk to them for a while tell them my story how i got to them... and took some pictures of course :D Übersetzen
Amazing! Greetings from Ukraine! By the way, here's lyrics and translation, if someone still need it: Íslenska Ligg ég eftir langa drauma, Liggur stirður, hugur sljór. Hatrið finn ég kröftugt krauma, Kreistir hefnd ef fyrrum sór. Heiðin býr að hættum blindum, Horfi ég mót svörtum tindum, Hel býr þar í mörgum myndum: Myrkur, kuldi ís og snjór. Heljarsál af himnum steyptist, Hafði af mér bú og menn. Hatrið inn í hugann geyptist, Heldur mér á lífi enn. Fleyjum þínum feigðin grandi, Finn ég þig á sjó og landi. Kem ég til þín forni fjandi, Fundir okkar nálgast senn. Morgunsól á miðri heiði, Minningarnar sækja á. Mikil er og römm sú reiði, Rífur sárin hatrið þá. Eitt sinn átti fljóð að finna Sem fallig gætti barna minna, En núna hef ég verk að vinna: Vega blóðga, stinga' og flá. Höldum nú á feigðarinnar fund, Þetta ferðalag mun telja okkar daga. Vaskir menn á vígamóðri stund Og Valhöll bíður okkar. Höldum nú á feigðarinnar fund, Þetta ferðalag er köllun vor og saga. Vaskir menn á vígamóðri stund Og Valhöll bíður okkar allra þá. English Lying after long dreams, lying stiffly, dull of mind. I feel the intense hatred boiling, squeezing a vengeance that I once swore. The moor has many unseen dangers, I look towards black peaks, there Hel resides in many forms: Darkness, cold, ice and snow. A soul from hell dove from the sky, took away my farm and my men. The hatred was embedded in my mind, still keeping me alive. May your ships be destroyed by death, I will find you on sea or on land. I seek you, ancient fiend, our meeting draws nearer. A morning sun in the midst of the moor, haunted by the memories. My anger is great and bitter, my hatred tears at my wounds. Once I had a woman waiting, fair she tended to my children, now I have a job to do: To kill, draw blood, stab and skin. Now we head to meet our imminent deaths, this journey will be the end of our days. Brave men in a moment of bloodlust and Valhalla awaits us. Now we head to meet our imminent deaths, this journey is our calling and our story. Brave men in a moment of bloodlust and Valhalla awaits all of us!

Le fait qu'un groupe comme Skálmöld fasse un concert avec un orchestre symphonique est franchement bandant ^^ Bravo les mecs vous gerez je vous aime! Ég eslka ykkur!

When volcanoes erupt in Iceland I'm assuming its because undead vikings are headbanging too hard to Skálmöld

Amazing! Greetings from Ukraine! By the way, here's lyrics and translation, if someone still need it:
Íslenska
Ligg ég eftir langa drauma,
Liggur stirður, hugur sljór.
Hatrið finn ég kröftugt krauma,
Kreistir hefnd ef fyrrum sór.
Heiðin býr að hættum blindum,
Horfi ég mót svörtum tindum,
Hel býr þar í mörgum myndum:
Myrkur, kuldi ís og snjór.
Heljarsál af himnum steyptist,
Hafði af mér bú og menn.
Hatrið inn í hugann geyptist,
Heldur mér á lífi enn.
Fleyjum þínum feigðin grandi,
Finn ég þig á sjó og landi.
Kem ég til þín forni fjandi,
Fundir okkar nálgast senn.
Morgunsól á miðri heiði,
Minningarnar sækja á.
Mikil er og römm sú reiði,
Rífur sárin hatrið þá.
Eitt sinn átti fljóð að finna
Sem fallig gætti barna minna,
En núna hef ég verk að vinna:
Vega blóðga, stinga' og flá.
Höldum nú á feigðarinnar fund,
Þetta ferðalag mun telja okkar daga.
Vaskir menn á vígamóðri stund
Og Valhöll bíður okkar.
Höldum nú á feigðarinnar fund,
Þetta ferðalag er köllun vor og saga.
Vaskir menn á vígamóðri stund
Og Valhöll bíður okkar allra þá.
English
Lying after long dreams,
lying stiffly, dull of mind.
I feel the intense hatred boiling,
squeezing a vengeance that I once swore.
The moor has many unseen dangers,
I look towards black peaks,
there Hel resides in many forms:
Darkness, cold, ice and snow.
A soul from hell dove from the sky,
took away my farm and my men.
The hatred was embedded in my mind,
still keeping me alive.
May your ships be destroyed by death,
I will find you on sea or on land.
I seek you, ancient fiend,
our meeting draws nearer.
A morning sun in the midst of the moor,
haunted by the memories.
My anger is great and bitter,
my hatred tears at my wounds.
Once I had a woman waiting,
fair she tended to my children,
now I have a job to do:
To kill, draw blood, stab and skin.
Now we head to meet our imminent deaths,
this journey will be the end of our days.
Brave men in a moment of bloodlust
and Valhalla awaits us.
Now we head to meet our imminent deaths,
this journey is our calling and our story.
Brave men in a moment of bloodlust
and Valhalla awaits all of us!
Þessir meistarar gera gott mót með Sinfó!

I now proclaim that at least 10,000 views are mine. Skalmold is officially responsible for my hearing impairment.
Any regrets?
TraustiGeir Not a single one.

@@heijack77 We are the same folk.
@@magnusjonsson7714 So true.
@@heijack77 Its fine to know another think so too. Here in Sweden, i dont know, some do.
@@magnusjonsson7714 Let´s agree there is a problem somewhere and figure it out? (we know what that problem is but we just cannot talk about it)
You something good is in store when literally everyone performing has a cheeky smile.
Even though I cannot understand one word of this amazing Iceland song. it still gives me goosebumps everytime I listen to it! absolutely amazing!!!
Le fait qu'un groupe comme Skálmöld fasse un concert avec un orchestre symphonique est franchement bandant ^^
Bravo les mecs vous gerez je vous aime! Ég eslka ykkur!
Ég elska hvað sinfómeðlimir virðast skemmta sér vel :)
Yep, this is my hundredth time watching this... Still makes me happy inside and tear up a little.
You get a like.
One of the greatest songs I have ever listened to!!
6:27 the drummer is so happy :). I really love this band.
Oh my GODDESS!!! How have i never seen this before!? That drummer was insane, you could see he was just loving every single minute of it. Want more!
He wasn't the only one. You did spot the grinning-like-a-loon violin?
@@reynirheidbergstefansson2343 Yeah i did ... i just wish i could find something like this in New Zealand to go to.
I didn't know it could become even more epic than it already was...
From what I once heard, the Symphonic Orchestra _wanted_ to do this.
