Talk about an information drop haha this was honestly really cool to read and the fact that they use human bones and have used some of their own blood is pretty metal so a lot of respect there lol. Definitely going to check out more of their stuff for sure as well as react to some of the videos you left! Thank you for putting in the time for typing out all this info, it's honestly really really appreciated

10000 years ago is around 8000 BC. That's about the time when the first farmers started cultivating barley between the two rivers of Mesopotamia. It's not until around 3000 BC that the BRONZE age starts. IRON age comes much later, about 2000 years later. Heilung is taking inspiration from a wide range of ages and cultures. The Norse letters you are referring to are called runes, which are part of the Norse (Nordic) Runic alphabet. Heilung said themselves they are not recreating history, but they're thinking of their project as "amplified" history. Borrowing elements from different cultures across time (Norse, Roman, Saxon, even Inuit and Mongolian Shamanism) to bring about a spectacle of history and a message of peace and healing, as, indeed, Heilung means "healing". As for using human bones and ashes, I would say those are props, as I don't really know what the legal status would be for human bones to be used as musical instruments..

I had a feeling it was something Norse related based off the symbols in the video and the dialect they were speaking haha

But the Heilung was originaly founded in Germany.

@@lenn1635 ? It was founded in Maria Franz and Christoffer Juuls backyard, in Denmark.

First I just want to say how amazed and appreciative of you going out of your way telling me the background as well as typing all this out! It was really interesting learning about the background as well learning about the lyrics actually mean so thank you very much again

Curious what you mean by underworld?

The underworld i as a spiritualist think there using the shrooms to enhance their connection to the cosmos aka 9 worlds of norse spirituality shrooms alter your state of conscious so that the spirits can either mount you as a vessle or you can enter a higher and expanded conscious in i love heilung and norse spirituality

I had that thought in the back of my head how it sounded pretty similar to native american music to some extent but its also cool to know that it has elements of music before the whole viking culture we know so thank you for helping me learn something new!

@@outcastreacts1272 Many American Indians have admixtures of R1b Y-DNA from very ancient times. R1b originated in Southeastern Russia approx 24 thousand years ago and spread outward from there, including Southwest Asia, The Caucasus Mountains, India, China and across the Bering Strait into the Americas. Remnants of a common ancient culture can probably be found in some American Indian tribes. ;) Also, regardless of genetics or culture, there's only so much you can do with sticks, stones, bones and some leather and wood, anyway. ;)

The members are from all over Northern Europe, Germany, Norway ect. They use multiple languages in their music proto germanic and old Norse both which stem from the same place and culture with some small differences. I think it's mostly forgotten knowledge that the Norse religion and language had a much farther use then just Norway and Sweden, it's just Norway and Sweden lasted the longest while the germanic people were forcefully Christianised much earlier on by the Romans. It makes me sad realising how much culture and knowledge was lost in what was essentially a cultural genocide.

Jade Shimata oh yeah definitely looking forward to see more of them from all the suggested videos down below with all the other comments!

roycroft ki 😂😂😂

Boogie Woogie hey always got shout out the peeps who help with content! I just dropped a video of them performing Krigsgaldr live! Appreciate the sub as well haha I’m also about to go live on twitch if you’d like to come hang out 😊

Just subbed to your twitch channel bro.

Ithindir yeah idk about 1.5 hour long video lol but I’ll definitely check out Krigsgaldr!

If you like that: you should try Heilung with Krigsaldr (War-Chant) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h7iXkpt_s7a4dGw.html Time dilutes listening to this song. Its a shamanistic experience. It is based on a poëm found on the Eggja stone, one of the oldest runes found. I am far from fluent in protogermanic, but it is a bit like Dutch/German/English (languages that came from protogermanic), so I did my best to translate: Min warb naseu (we where near the waterline) Wilr made thaim (doing the laundry) I bormotha hauni (I was disturbed a howling) Hu war (hu war) (who was it) Hu war opkam har a hit lot (who was it that has come upon to our lands) Got nafiskr orf (got masks on) Auim suimade (making havoc) Foki afa galande (people all panic) 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 (of purification) Look like dying embers (x10) Min warb naseu (we where near the waterline) Wilr made thaim (doing the laundry) I bormotha hauni (I was disturbed by a howling) Hu war (hu war) (who was it) Hu war opkam har a hit lot (who was it that has come upon to our lands) Got nafiskr orf (got masks on) Auim suimade (making havoc) Foki afa galande (people all panic) (all who have ears! Listen to this!) (x10)

@@outcastreacts1272 Just listen to the entire album, and keep looking up the lyrics, its awesome. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/npdypq56tZrZiYE.html - Opening Ceremony (chant/prayer with band and public about Yggdrasil, the tree of life, that we are all part off) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/npdypq56tZrZiYE.html95 - In Maidjan (the corruption) about creation: the gods are called to create the sun, and everything that sprouts from it. Then the Elder Futhark is chanted: the runic alphabet. Each rune both a sound humans make to communicate, a letter, as a 'concept' in itself, for example S, Sowilo, also means 'Sun', M(annaz) also means 'Man', D(agaz) also means 'day' (concept of time) etc. Then Odin is asked to look at our struggle. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/npdypq56tZrZiYE.html - Alfadhirhaiti (All names that the allfather, god, has) About the things created and experienced by god through his creation. From wolf to human warriors. Who will always continue to exist, because we remember them. Then follows a list of names of 'god'. Basically: 'everything'. ('God of the hanged' is a reference to their religion, where they thought god hanged himself upside down in the tree of life, to splinter in 'life', and to experience the universe through us, so god himself, as an entity is 'dead', and only continues to live, because we remember him, we are 'gods eyes'. Jup: Its complicated) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/npdypq56tZrZiYE.html390 - Carpathian Forest is a reference to the protogermanic greatest accomplishment of defense: the battle with the roman invaders in the carpathian forest: where complete legions of romans 'went in, but never came out'. The war-chants of the 'pagan' army coming from the dark woods still makes any roman shiver. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/npdypq56tZrZiYE.html628 - Krigsgaldr (war chant) about what choice we are left with if someone invades our lands. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/npdypq56tZrZiYE.html - Hakkerskaldyr (shield formation) Lyrics: 'Hey! Every men! Hear our voices! Listen to us now: In thy hands is death Thy people we shall slaughter And no mercy will be given Fearless we are Death makes us laugh War is what we want Thou! Dies! In this battle thou shall dies.' kzfaq.info/get/bejne/npdypq56tZrZiYE.html - Fylgija Ear / Futhorck. Fylgija Ear () : "The grave is terrible to every earl, when the fixed flesh begins, the corpse cooling, to choose the earth, paleness as its bedmate. Fruits fail, joys depart, mankind ceases to be. " first in (old) german, then in old english. This describes that both sides in war mourn exactly the same. Then, in 'Futhorck', runes are rolled, and with each rune a small story is told. Depicting all things that can happen in life, but then the 'death' rune is pulled, and its all over. Death, being as much part of life, as life. Your life can be short or long, filled with events, but in the end we all roll 'death', and thats ok. That is how it is. Without 'death' as event, there would be NO events. (this is all very religious). kzfaq.info/get/bejne/npdypq56tZrZiYE.html - Othan (Odin) is a poëm about the actual fight. It begins with untranslatable warchant/spell: "Hariuha laþu laukar gakar alu ole lule laukar" then a man tells about how he started as 1 in 11, who led them in battle, he prays they go to the fight, and come back home, as a whole. But when he comes back, he is only 1 in 5. Arrows struck the rest down. And there was nothing he could do, even when he could see it happen. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/npdypq56tZrZiYE.html - Hamrer Hippyer is about bringing in some prisoners: and taking revenge on them for the losses of the kinsmen. They chant: 'hang the animals' and 'blood for blood' 'a bone for a bone' 'so that wounds can heal again' Then it says: 'may this story be of any help' And then it ends. BOOM. [x] headshot. Fatality! Brain offline.

Honestly, energy wise Krigsgalder is kinda meh. The song from Senua's Saga is In Maidjan and is really cool to see live. In Maidjan, Alfadhirhaiti and Hamrer Hippyer are really good. Watch it from their LIFA concert. I don't know why people have such a hard on for Krigsgalder honestly except maybe because "oooooh a warchant." Its good don't get me wrong but its one of their weakest tracks.

Hey we all have our own opinions on things but still appreciate the info and going to check this out!

Lenn 1635 Damn thats a lot of languages they switch through, I wish I knew more than just one 😂

@@outcastreacts1272 Normaly a song has parts in about two languages there are also songs in just one language

and also Latin

@@StefanScripca can you tell me in which song?

Well definitely going to have to react to this now haha

@@outcastreacts1272 you have to listen to the end, Maria Franz is the Norwegian part of this band and here you will experience her amazing vocal control.

Well guess I have a new band/group to react to haha

Stefan Iversen drop a link of one of your favorite songs they did live and I’ll check it out!

@@outcastreacts1272 Would love to see the reaction of a Roman legion if they heard this in the forrest when they tried to invade northern Europe kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aN2pYLpe1b_QlKc.html

@@outcastreacts1272 And as another commented. You can't miss Wardruna and Aurora when the perform Helvegen live. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fNSbh9h5tZ_VY6M.html

I'll second a react/listen to Alfadhirhaiti (ᚨᛚᚠᚨᛞᚺᛁᚱᚺᚨᛁᛏᛁ, Names of the Allfather). The lyric, if you can call it that, is more or less a chanting of some of the different names used for the Allfather, Odin. It will pull you in...

I'll definitely give them a look!
