Lo! The hunters of the Northeast realm. Tooth for totem, and beast for helm. Descendants of the last Neanderthal. Climbed our fathers the cliffs of the mountains of Ural. Their blades were bronze, long and never dull Bound for hides and for the taking of skulls. Through the centuries we have endured. On the path of the hunter, that prepares us for war! We take trophies off the dead So be careful not to lose your precious head! This is ancient holy ground, By the Kurgan mound! With Scythian recurves upon dragon wings. The red-haired asket brought the line of kings. Sarmatian mothers nurtured royal blood. And in Kainuu their children ascended to gods. Thules winter branded eye and skin. Thiassis' eyes watched over Etunaz kin. Chud and Saka became Vinoviloth. The Cwenas, Winnili, the Sax and the Goth! We take trophies off the dead So be careful not to lose your precious head! This is ancient holy ground, By the Kurgan mound!
I love this song. It sounds so raw and primal, the oral tradition of an unfathomably ancient and brutal people. They who conquered all in their path, then disappeared from history, leaving trails of burials and their blood in the veins of uncountable descendants, the red flame of their hair the last thread connecting them to their ancestors....

Fucking finally something closer to the actual lyrics. I read up on other sites and I just heard A LOT that wasn't written down at all. Edit: Also I believe it's "the mountains of Ural" as it is in the center of Russia and a more than likely place for the "last of the Neanderthals" ANOTHER EDIT! "Kurgan mound" is almost by the Urals, like by the little end of it all. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurgan
I've listen to the chant in the beginning over and over and I got: "Asa li isentunt! Honti perasayt! Asa lasti nire! Ista langist tuye!" I unfortunately don't know what it means.

@@annoyedzebra6362 Hulkoff is talking about the Kurgan culture, which is a culture that existed between 5000-3000 BC and is named after the kurgan burial method. According to some people (and the lyrics in this video), the Kurgans are the first people to use indoeuropean language and are also the distant ancestors of scandinavians.
Nope. It may have been inspired partially by the Highlander guy though, who is allegedly a descendant of the 'Kurgans', even though that isn't an endonym for any specific people as much as it is a blanket term used to describe a variety of different peoples throughout antiquity and the early middle ages that raised tumuluses, many of whom who were quite distinct from one another in linguistic and other cultural aspects.
@Finnic Patriot Can't understand a single finnish word from it other than maybe "saaret". A few words sound something like "nyhet" and "ansar" though which makes me feel like it's swedish. Would also make sense since I'm pretty sure Hulkoff is from Sweden.
@@OptimalOwl If it's Finnish I think it's a very old or diverged dialect. It's got some differences to the Finnish I heard from a native speaker at college. And the cadence of the language bears more resemblance to some of the older variants of North Sea Germanic and early Anglo-Saxon.
Doesn't sound slavic, don't recognize it though. Cadence and vowel structure isn't very similar to the modern nordic languages. Honestly sounds OLD, with some similarities to the Ingvaeonic family, but differences in the vowels.
Lo! The hunters of the Northeast realm.
Tooth for totem, and beast for helm.
Descendants of the last Neanderthal.
Climbed our fathers the cliffs of the mountains of Ural.
Their blades were bronze, long and never dull
Bound for hides and for the taking of skulls.
Through the centuries we have endured.
On the path of the hunter, that prepares us for war!
We take trophies off the dead
So be careful not to lose your precious head!
This is ancient holy ground,
By the Kurgan mound!
With Scythian recurves upon dragon wings.
The red-haired asket brought the line of kings.
Sarmatian mothers nurtured royal blood.
And in Kainuu their children ascended to gods.
Thules winter branded eye and skin.
Thiassis' eyes watched over Etunaz kin.

Awesome! I wrote this so I'll change that
I think he says "Thule's winter branded eye and skin" Thule = "northenmost north"/Scandinavia.
Believe me when I say that that's not swedish.
Probably some slavic language
You're probably right. Apparently the area kurgan mounds are from is south western russia.
Definitely my favourite from the album, good job!
I've listen to the chant in the beginning over and over and I got:
"Asa li isentunt!
Honti perasayt!
Asa lasti nire!
Ista langist tuye!"
I unfortunately don't know what it means.
I get
"Assari sepsunt!

i like this lol
Круто, эпически, супер!
Is it anyone who knows the word for the slavic chants ?.. Fcking epic song, would be fun to know the words.
@Finnic Patriot Kurgan is an early Slavic way of burial (and Sarmatian)...
@@MeAndI338 *Germanic
@@MeAndI338 Kurgan is also an area in Russia.

kör så de ryker! Tornedalen represent \m/

Hail from Hungary!
love it
Geil! 🤘💪
This band radiates mad DnD barbarian energy.
Amazing how also others!
An instant classic
Now so the Suebes, the Dark Lords of Germania.
now the real question is is this a warhammer fantasy refrence, we may never know
Definitely not. This is based on the Kurgan hypothesis of the ancestry of the Proto-Indo-European peoples

kinda sounds like Powerwolf - Kreuzfeur
it sounds like per from raubtier
it is!
Hulkoff is also the name of the singer of Raubtier.
So this is basically just Raubtier except in English

@@Radagast49230 It's probably supposed to be original indo european language spoken around 5000BC by the Kurgan culture.
