The whole Concert is pure Magic

Norwegian here, I have met the female vocalist Maria a few times and can probably shed some light: This song is composed of the female lyrics, which are from the Eggja stone found in Norway, inscribed around the time of the fall of the Roman empire, and the english parts are the bands interpretation of the runes on that stone. It's a story of being forced into a conflict you don't want, but also determination to make damn sure you win that conflict. And also, Wardruna - Helvegen. Find a video with english lyrics as well, so you understand. There's power in music like this. And then Ivar Bjørnson & Einar Selvik - Kvervandi. All of this music is expressing the original, north european/nordic culture, the spiritual beliefs and convictions of the Goths, Saxons, Vikings, Normans, Langobardi, Vandals, The Rus and all the other people who shared a common language and similiar belief system before Empire came disguised as Christianity.

Per wiki: Heilung is an experimental folk band of members from Denmark, Norway, and Germany.[1] They do music based on texts of original artifacts from the Iron Age and the Viking Age. They describe their music as "amplified history from early medieval northern Europe".[Heilung means "healing" in German. Heilung is under contract at the label Season of Mist.

I saw Heilung live and I can't even begin to describe what happens when you're in front of stage when they do their ritual.

The 'rap'like duel: 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

Heilung is a very proto-Germanic band. The time before the Vikings and main land Europe tribes

It's pre-Christian, European ritual adaptations. Very magic oriented, very religious. These guys are really awesome. If you get the chance you should watch the whole show, it's on KZfaq. It's mesmerising.

Wardruna - helvegen featuring Aurora live in the cave version. I love it. These guys got me into it, love this music!

The fact they have created metal in its purest form without even a guitar is amazing, this whole concert is epic. You two are just scratching the surface of what's out there and absolutely worth listening to. Riverside, Heilung, and Amorphis today for starters. I look forward to the journey with you two.

True fact: The bones Maria is tapping together are human.

This is my music of my soul, maybe because I am German and Scandinavian, it has awakened something in me I cant explain

You should watch the whole LIFA live concert from this evening. It is mesmerizing and will make you shiver from the primordial energy and power in it.

Wow.. Just discovered i like this type of music❤

Now its time for WARDRUNA : HELVEGEN (Way to Hell) and SKALD : RUN ( Runes).....

PEOPLE ARE JUST LEARNING ABOUT THIS BAND !! AMAZING TO WATCH OTHERS REACTIONS

Wardruna was started by a couple guys from a black metal band( not in your wheel house, nor mine), but this kicked off a lot of other bands ( like this one)getting attention...and Wardruna has been prominently featured in Vikings....

So glad you guys reacted to this performance. I was mesmerized the first time I stumbled upon it.

This song makes me cry every. Damn. Time.

Great Reaction!!! Please do more Heilung... they are a German-Norway band and they sing in old Germanic language... Maria is a great singer please please please react more to Heilung!!!

Heilung was the last 'concert' we were able to attend before Covid lockdown. I can only say that it was a High Magick Ritual disguised as entertainment. We literally felt them drawing our energy onto the stage then amplifying it before returning it back to us. We were so amped after this ended that instead of a taxi we walked 5 miles through Chicago to our hotel. So glad that we got the chance!

I was at this concert...this was the first concert they ever gave.....and or was epic, hypnotizing....really good.

Heilung means healing. Krigsgaldr means war chant. And together it means AWESOME !

The Title "Krigsgaldr" means War spell (Krigs = War & galdr = Magic spell)

Love Heilung! Thanks for reacting!

I first saw the Heilung video a few weeks ago and was immediately transfixed. The music has a visceral affect and then factor in the visual appearance of the performers. I found myself transported to a smoke filled building in the midst of a Goddess ritual. I am pagan so that probably helped. :) If you go to the video's page itself there are some excellent comments with info on the probable sources/origins of the music. There are translations of the lyrics and historical information about music like this that has survived centuries. All that discovery the result of seeing the video in You Tube's "recomended for you" algorithm.

Castle fest ..Castlefest is a medieval/fantasy festival in the Netherlands, held on the first weekend of August in the gardens of Castle Keukenhof in Lisse since 2005. The festival takes part during 3 days on Friday, Saturday and Sunday with an opening concert on Thursday

Yes!! Thank you guys! my name is frost og take, which is frost and fog in Norwegian. I pretty much love everything about this song and band

Great choice Love Maria Franz.. Shes gorgeous..You should watch the whole concert in the dark ..

love the Channel! greetings from Brazil!

Everybody connects this to Vikings at first, because it contains a lot of that "norse" spirit and the Vikings are like the pop stars. But I would rather sort it as native european or Germanic. Before the Roman Empire came and changed everything. Including the spirituality of the continent. The Vikings where the last line of defense against that "Western" spirit. Ancient music, older than Christianity even and native, not imported. I think it´s the drums that speak to something old in us. It´s like a heathen ceremony. And I love it :D To make a little more sense of that particular song, I dare you to watch the official video. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gZ2KpL2H2tSnkmg.html

Finally I get to see your guys reactions to the mighty Heilung you tube has been burying your videos for me for a while now

Oh my fucking shit! I was just thinking about this the other day and wishing yall would react to it! Great job 🤘

you guys also should chek out Eivør Pálsdóttir: Tròdlabùndin,also a fantastic song.

I loved that you reacted to this. I never would have expected this. The group pays tribute to their pagan roots. They are a peaceful group but are preparing for conflict with another warming tribe. It’s definitely different but I really liked it when I saw it. Enjoy the experience! Side note: The female vocalist is classically trained and has done many other things.

It’s a very dronic, ritualistic shamanic experience.. When you listen to the whole concert, you will feel the whole ritualistic experience.. it’s Northern European (Scandinavian-Germanic)

I loved watching you guys sink into the music of Heilung! I've been a fan of them for a while, as well as groups like Wardruna and Danheim! This was the first video of yours I've come across and I loved it! Keep up the awesome content, you guys are so cute!

You guys keep hitting so many of my favorite bands so fast it's like whiplash, I love it! :D

oh I love this sound. They are so great musicians 👍Nice to be here with you btw. Greez Phil

if you want to listen to another one by heilung listen to hamrer hippyer

Ladies and gents, BLESSED BE

Ahhh...that look on your faces once he began to sing. That's always my favorite part of reactions to this song.

11:23 that head shake and blink describes things more than a 1000 words. This song and Heilung in general really puts you in a trance and when you exit it's like you're just waking up.

German tribes and Vikings together , i`m danish and i love it. Viking forever 😊

I have my tickets for the tour. I´m so excited

Just stumbled on these guys a few days ago....stunned and amazed, my inner tribe has spoken!

the name is german and means healing and they sing in pre-norsk, norwegian, english and german as i know and they use often old rune poems or texts from the pre to vikings time. all of there songs are meant to bring heeling and peace and their message is that all humans on earth are brothers. their members are norwegian, german and danish i think. their live shows are telling a kind of story. this song for example: the singing part is from an old text and as i know it is about odin healing the broken leg of an horse. the spoken part is about someone starting a fight with someone who never wanted war and rather wants to live in peace but the enemy only understands the language of the sword. very powerful in my opinion

The whole album is amazing.

Maria have the clearest voice i’ve ever heard. This is magic and our roots😊

Subbed. That's all I need from a reaction channel. Cheers guys

Sooo Castlefest is a renaissance fair/cosplay/music event in Holland. And Heilung is a side project of two members of the band Euzen and their friend a poet/tattoo artist. Significantly heilung means healing in German and that is what this is supposed to be; we're in a forest in the summer listening to music, eating food, performing a ritual burning of the wickerman enjoying being with friends. Then everyone quiets down and sits on the floor. It's gone dark, the birds you hear are actual birds in the trees, fires are burning all around and then this "music" happens and keeps happening. After 5 minutes or 5 hours (I'm not really sure) you wake up from this trance and you feel moved. This is not supposed to be pretty or light or easy, it's primal.

Ok, so Heilung is a German word, which means healing. The band itself is an international band with members from Denmark, Norway & Germany. They chose that name because "The listener is supposed to be left at ease and in a relaxed state after a magical musical journey that is at times turbulent". Heilung brings music based on artefacts dating from the Norhern European Iron Age and Viking age. They call the music "amplified history". The chorus of Krigsgaldr is based on a poem from a gravestone found in Norway in 1917, so it's old Norse. But because the poem is only partially preserved, they made a phonetical version of the 2nd panel (they found 3 on the site). Researchers think it's related to a funeral. The poem should ensure safe passage to the afterlife.

I love watching you both. Peace

Please try "Hamrer Hippyer" at Lifa from Heilung. Its a very long song but it is sooo great. It sounds like You will summon demons, but is based on a healing chant in old high German from the 9th or 10th century called "Merseburg Charms" The more You hear it , the more You will be addicted :)

Love this band great concert!

Their music dents a good chill through my body that I get goosebumps in a good way, like it awaken me

It is a crime that so many people are just discovering Maria Franz now. She was the singer in Euzen for years.

Just my favourite band I wish they could come to Spain would love to see them live. X

i remember having listened to this song once at least.... :)

This band is *AMAZING* They use various Germanic languages including German, Porto-German, Old English, Old Norse, Modern English, and maybe one or two others. Could you guy watch and breakdown their song “alfadhirhaiti”??? (Names of the Allfather). Allfather being Odin or Wotan.

I love how you said in the beginning that you'd watch a little bit then talk about it -- but ended up going into a trance and listening to the entire thing. Heilung doesn't have fans, they have a tribe. Between them and Wardruna... we welcome you.

I love watching reaction vids of Heilung. I feel like they are a very important band in these uncertain times.

6:46 your faces.......priceless 🍾😉😎😂

Great reaction! Thanks for not talking over them or pausing.

This whole concert is a RITUAL. I don't know if you all knew that but, yes. It's a ritual to our ancestors, gods,etc. The whole concert,. 😉 Little trivia quiz.

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 10,000 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 this year 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. I recommend this video of her concert.

Their music wakes my inner being.

Heilung members are from Denmark, Norway, and Germany.

i was there at castlefest, i live close by, i go every year though but indeed i was there and it was epic with Heilung :)

Krigsgaldr is but one section of what is for me a very spiritual journey, and to get the full effect you really do need to shut yourself off from the world and listen to the whole of the LIFA concert. Heilung's music is all about feeling, it will take you to very uncomfortable places at times, but will ultimately leave you at peace, and will stay with you long after the last drum beat stops resonating.

The Music of my Grand..Grand..Grand..Grand..Grand..Grand..Grand..Grand..Grandfather never Dies. Awsome....

Heilung, means healing. Listen to the whole show, loud and in the dark to get the full effect. New music coming for the summer solstice.

SONGTEXT: Krigsgaldr Min Warb Naseu Wilr Made Thaim I Bormotha Hauni Hu War Hu War Opkam Har a Hit Lot Got Nafiskr Orf Auim Suimade Foki Afa Galande 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.

I was at that concert!

North. Does the Tree forget its roots? Do the roots dream of a canopy? We are disconnected and rearranged. Remember the struggle of your arm. Remember the mountain. Red on white.

I think they are a great band and I really enjoy their music

Love the additin of the video in the corner

Right On! Most of the more accomplished musicians listen to a variety of different music genres, even if they don't play them, because they know that there is always more to learn.

I LOVE Heilung. I HATE any kind reactions. But yours was worth to watch, so honest and true acknowledgement of their magic. Thanks!😊

I put in my AirPods when I go to bed and play this until I fall asleep. It helps me shut down from my day. It is very relaxing. 💜

I am not European or white but this definitely is universal kind of music. It speaks to the primal part of the soul no matter where you are descended from

What Website can I find this two or just Kel for scientific research purposes

I love them

#PainInTheAsk Please react to *Dead Can Dance - 'Rakim'* . They are a similar style band but with a world music feel. The lead female singer of this band is famous for adding her vocals to movie soundtracks, most famously "Now We are Free" from the Gladiator soundtrack. The Hammered Dulcimer played at the beginning of the track is also played by the female vocalist, Lisa Gerrard. One of my favorite bands, always spine tingling.

The first time I heard this Heilung's song I was like wtf… and then I listened to it again and again and I was hooked. Most of their songs are in proto-Norse or Old English. This one is mostly Old English. Their 2nd album will be released on June 28. I love Maria Franz's voice.

When y'all both have the time in your own time you should check out this whole show, it's beyond words! Unless y'all decide to save the experience of other songs from this show for more first reactions which is also awesome.

I like how you listen to the music/experience and do not pause the video performance to put your self absorbency into someone else’s art to form and give you opinion at the end like a any adult should. Than you

It's the first time I have heard "new" music in decades!

Have you listened to Alfadhirhaiti yet? It is my favorite by them, it gives me goosebumps and makes me cry when I watch it. (I have to watch the concert footage when I listen)

Love Heilung.

While we are hearing the song, our anciens are calling us ...

it's probably proto Norse it was spoken around the first centery AD to the sixth centery AD it's super interesting the name of the krigsgaldr means something like "war magic"

Frostogtaake mean Frost-and-fog in Norwegian. Now you guys have that sorted out. Greetings from Norway.

Maria Franz sings in Euzen to. Great group to.

The people of the Germanic, Danes, Finns, Sweds, Norwegians (Vikings). Their whole mantra was leave me be and we will not destroy you, your families, towns and way of life. They were violent but in a pure way, you didn't have to guess what would happen if you attack them. Also if they knew you were weak they would just destroy you and take what you had. You should also listen to Wardruna a band with similar styles

I listen to this full concert when I'm in the mountains. It's more primal than modern music. Another one from that very same concert is Heilung Alfadhirhaiti. It's more intense. I read this band tries to use as much of the old Germanic poetry as they can.

the album videos are brilliant.

Gets right to the soul

Glad you found this its truly amazing and I love this bands music so much. Its straight from the ancient God's given to us

Heilung is the world's best driving music.

This music speaks to something very primal. My grandmother was an immigrant from Iceland, maybe that's why.
