The words in their songs are just words taken from ancient coins and runes from the Germanic and Viking times. So basically it's representation of those times. The band members are from Germany Denmark and Norway. I highly recommend watching some of their videos. Their video of "Anoana" is a great place to start. It will blow you away. As a point of interest the word Heilung is German for healing. I think the performance is kind of healing.
the sad point is, that we know a lot about runes and their meaning, but we know nothing about how this viking-aera music sounded. have you seen that symphonic viking voyage-concert by einar selvic, eivor and the danish symphonic orchestra? it gives interesting insights into music of that time
Heilungs concerts are more like shamanic rituals and the music gets in and grabs you by the DNA and won't let go. Oh and they are human bones Maria is playing.
If you like the female (Maria Franz) vocals check out In Maidjan from the same album. Alfadhirhaiti, Hamrer Hippyer, Svanrand, Asja, Norupo are also good. But my favourite is the official video of Anoana.
I've been listening to Heilung for 2 years and got to see them live last September with a friend of mine. We both walked out of the concert with our minds blown. I'm not really religious, but I would call it a religious experience, or at least that's what I assumed a religious experience would feel like. They had these large drums that one person banged on that I felt the force of each bang on it in my chest and I was in 25th row. Welcome to the Heilung family, because the band told an interviewer that they don't have fans, they have brothers and sisters.
I only got to know Heilung because of Nightwish. In 2018 I wanted to see Nightwish again in Wacken and there I experienced Heilung for the first time ... I was immediately trapped in this music world unknown to me. Since then, they have been number 3 of my favorite bands after Nightwish and Pink Floyd.
Heilung is life changing. Its profound and primal. You either connect to it or not, for those who do feelnit down to their core and it awakens something deep within. Otherwise, one is not ready yet to have the ears to hear. The whole Lifa show (ceremony) is a must. It starts with opening prayer thingy and then it goes into "In Maidjan" which showcases Maria franz, aka tassle girl, vocals and not surprising she is from the Angelina Jordan country of Norway so you know its grade A! So many vocalist I listen to on a daily is from Norway. Aurora, Eivør (close enough to Norway) Einar with Wardruna, Kalandra, Jonna, and saved best for last Angelina. Legend goes if you let a lizard listen to heilung it transformes into a dragon!
I am Norwegian and have to say that calling the Faroe Islands where Eivor is from close enough to Norway that it does not matter😵 is insulting to the Faroe Islands and Eivor that is very proud to be Faroese. It is like saying Taylor Swift is Mexican because it is close enough to the USA🙄 And if you mean Jonna as in Jonna Jinton she is Swedish not Norwegian.
I love Heilung. Languages used in their songs are German, English, Gothic, Old High German, Icelandic, Latin, Old English, Proto-Norse, Proto-Germanic, and Old Norse Here's some of their unique instruments: Bones. Drums made of horse, deer and goat skin. Buffalo horn rattle and a clay rattle. Hindu ritual bell. A Ravanahatha (bowed, stringed instrument used in India and Sri Lanka; neck is wood or bamboo, sound box is gourd or coconut shell with a stretched hide, and the strings are gut or hair).
It's a magical war song. The title is Old Norse, where "krig" means "war" and "galdr" is a form of sung incantation. Thanks for reacting to this fascinating group!
@@asjaosaline5987 I might be a bit too used to the Swedish word for war (which happens to be "krig"). You're right that "krig" is more proto-Germanic than Old Norse. However, the second word "galdr" is very much Old Norse.
Their live performances are outstanding. I've been there three times and the way they get the crowd going is wild! There are people in some kind of trance, everyone's chanting, clapping and stomping along. It's a perfomance you'll never going to forget and might get addicted to it.
Their headdress is based on a 9000 year old archeological find of a shaman in Bad Dürrenberg, Germany. It's now in the Landesmuseum für Vorgeschichte (State Museum of Prehistory) in Saxony-Anhalt.
Heilung is more than music, it's primal and spiritual and stirs smth deep inside of us. Anyone with any knowledge about paganism, and/or inclination for it, will feel it. I whole-heartedly recommend "In Maidjan" from the same show. Or in fact the whole thing, it's mindblowing. The official videos for "Norupo" and "Anoana" are awesome too.
Some bands offer music, while others offer an experience. I saw Heilung last September for the first time. It'll change things inside of you for a long time afterward.
Heilung tours regularly. If they are in your area, GO SEE IT! Their performances are not just a concert, it is an EXPERIENCE because you feel the drums and percussion and the energy through your WHOLE BODY and SOUL! You feel like you are transported to ANCIENT Pagan past! Heilung is a true METAL band of the Folk Metal genre. Heilung is a featured band at Metal Music Festivals in Europe! You can go to Heilung's UA-cam channel as well as their own website to find out tour dates. Heilung means HEALING in Proto Norse which is the language before Norse language of the Vikings. Proto-Norse is the language used in most of the lyrics Heilung sings.
Krigsgaldr-and the LIFA performance as a whole-is about a peaceful village driven to war. To me, this song beautifully portrays sorrow and anger as you listen to the sounds of swords being forged alongside their war chant. And then the English lyrics give you some insight into everything going on. "What if I want to talk about peace and understanding, but you only understand the language of the sword?" Well, if you're gonna force me into this, I'm gonna sing you my "Lullaby of obliteration."
Being a spiritualist by heart and a swedish native with shamanic interest i love youre reaction. There is alot in our wourld and our minds we will never understand. However the fact that these pagan rituals and sounds can make us stir in a way we dont understand connects us all via a primal way deep inside. Ir emember when i first discovered the ley lines of our lands and i staye there in a perfect circle of old trees here in southern sweden. I swear i lost almost 8 hours just sitting there at peace inside that circle of trees. i hEard cars nearby and animals and it seems like a minute but when imoved it had gone almost 8 hours.
First time I watched this group I thought to myself that the one guy, without the horns, wrapped in fur, looked something like you, Daniel. Except, of course, your face is cleaner. Seriously, I love Heilung. I'm glad you do too because now we get to hear them more on your channel.
If you'd like to see one of their official videos, not live, try "Anoana". It tells a pretty straightforward story (child is born, eventually finds her spirit animal...is the over-simplification.) It's a beautiful song, with a beautiful video, and it has a story that you can follow, so not knowing the words is just fine. Thanks for the reaction to this wonderful band.
Different! I've never encountered ANYTHING like this!! Definitely intrigued by it. A distinct Tribal Viking Death Metal feel to it. Would be interesting to be there in person with a couple of beers in the system. It's potentially a bizarre perspective but I was actually getting rather chilled out listening that. I think I might investigate this a little bit more.
Recently fell in love with their music. Some rabbit hole :D Check out their other most popular songs. Anoana is a great cinematic video too. Great reaction, can see you feel the tribal DNA in you working :D

The European metalheads landed here in search of faster, harder, louder music. Co-founder Kai-Uwe is an avowed death metal fan, they play at metal festivals and release on a metal label. All three met in the reenactment scene, where similar costumes are worn and people live according to the times. That's why nothing seems like it was staged. There's nothing set. There are no musical recordings from before Christianization. What you hear is our idea of what it might have sounded like. In fact, there are several thousand years of musical development between them. The music back then was probably much simpler. Another famous band is: Wardruna and Aurora - Helvegen (Live)
I saw a live ritual a year ago. Was one of the most intense experiences I have had. They are awesome. Try Anoana, Norupo, Othan. Their song Nikkal is a song to the moon goddess Nikkal. Based on one of the oldest known songs from 1400 BC. Written down as cuneiform tablets and discovered in the early 1950’s. It’s the only one that was still in one piece. It consists of instructions to play the melody and sing the lyrics but true details have been lost over time.

Ylir Men Aero Their Era Mela Os (Another translator has suggested "old man, cry for them, man or woman ) See links for the Norse inscription. The meaning remains largely unclear. wikipedia Eggja_stone Source: lyricstranslate best regards from germany
i did wonder what the line was "morass of the red rain" as i hear that, but can also here "Moris of the red rain" both work in context (Moris as in Moris Dancers)
well, i can only repeat my suggestion for eivor, last kingdom main theme live at hammersmith apollo. she is truly a nordic goddess, unrivaled. and after that one, i'd reccomend falling free live at the old theater in tórshavn. or whatever you might pick. tròdlabùndin, wake me up, truth live at studio bloch, í tokuni music video, .... she is one of those artists where you say "OMG, where has she been all my life???" by the way, eivors native language, faroese, is closest to old norse together with icelandic
I've seen them perform live once at a festival. I personally wasn't hooked. My face was like yours at 5:00 and the multiple "What? 😐" You said during the video, were my thought during the whole show. You made me cackle at 11:47 😆. And then "How is it going Susan?" 😂😂😂. But I agree their artistic performance is phenomenal and the way the show is bought is a lot of work and they do it really good. Just doesn't speak to me 🤷🏻♂️.
Awesome reaction. Want another bizarre experience? Check out The Hu. Great Chinggis or their version of Metallic "Sad but True". I always tell my friends that I have the widest taste in music and they don't believe me. I've blown a few people away by sharing this. Anowana by Heiling is gorgeous, too!
This song's lyrics actually are complaining abouy the dudes who grabbed oars and went to conquer shit- and ended up at some poor village. It's based off the text on an ancient stone commerating the battle that ensued, which the natives apparently won, at cost, leaving them wondering what divine force deemed to steer the raiders to their shores.
If I can remember correctly, these poor people have such a hard time going through airports because they use real bones(I believe human) as instruments.
war was an important part of the viking aera. while christians aim is to be a good christian to go to heacven after death, for a wiking the goal was to die on the warfield and go to walhalla. war was also neccessary to aquire new land for a growing population.
Who's getting sacrificed tonight???. Very Tribal this form of vocalisations where once common in our more primative past The Mongolians still use this way of singing. Eveytime i hear something like this i think of Conan or Vikings.
The words in their songs are just words taken from ancient coins and runes from the Germanic and Viking times. So basically it's representation of those times. The band members are from Germany Denmark and Norway. I highly recommend watching some of their videos. Their video of "Anoana" is a great place to start. It will blow you away. As a point of interest the word Heilung is German for healing. I think the performance is kind of healing.
the sad point is, that we know a lot about runes and their meaning, but we know nothing about how this viking-aera music sounded. have you seen that symphonic viking voyage-concert by einar selvic, eivor and the danish symphonic orchestra? it gives interesting insights into music of that time
Correct, except the "viking times". Heilung is amplifiying music/history/the aesthetic way before "viking" times. :)
I LOVE Heilung, they are pure primal!!! Please consider reacting to their song "Anoana"
But first, please, the music video! It's one of the most beautiful I've seen so far.
This was their first ever Live Performance and they became instant legends! That entire show is worth watching.
Heilung - LIFA - In Maidjan
Listen to that one alone in the woods a Misty night 😁.
By a fire, clothed, or not, approprately
In maidjian from the same concert (their first concert BTW) she pulls some vocal gymnastics, awakening some ancestors for sure
Heilungs concerts are more like shamanic rituals and the music gets in and grabs you by the DNA and won't let go. Oh and they are human bones Maria is playing.

It's now in the Landesmuseum für Vorgeschichte (State Museum of Prehistory) in Saxony-Anhalt.
You should check out their track Norupo. The video's awesome also.
I randomly watched the whole concert one night and they quickly became one of my favourite bands ever

Love this band. If you like this check out Wardruna with Aurora performing Helvegen. Gets you in touch with your pre-Christian pagan routes.
Hi great reaction😊 This was the very first concert ever at a fantasy festival. I had the honour to so them😊
Some bands offer music, while others offer an experience. I saw Heilung last September for the first time. It'll change things inside of you for a long time afterward.
Susan in the organic food aisle... Hahahaha! That was funny.
If you enjoyed Heilung. Try Wardruna (Healing Mountain). The official video has English subtitles. it's another primal song. Cool video, too.
Heard Wardruna first. Great recommendation
Heilung tours regularly. If they are in your area, GO SEE IT!

Your fires of purification look like dying embers
This is something special. Very hypnotic.
Primal, tribal, even primeval music.
As you say, intense.
Nice reaction again Daniel.

However the fact that these pagan rituals and sounds can make us stir in a way we dont understand connects us all via a primal way deep inside.

HEILUNG is awesome... especially life. Saw them just recently ❤ I love Marias voice ❤😊
If you'd like to see one of their official videos, not live, try "Anoana". It tells a pretty straightforward story (child is born, eventually finds her spirit animal...is the over-simplification.) It's a beautiful song, with a beautiful video, and it has a story that you can follow, so not knowing the words is just fine. Thanks for the reaction to this wonderful band.
If this your first HEILUNG song, you should watch other live videos from HEILUNG in LIFA.
For something more gentle try Anoana.
* Live version!
Heilung songs worth listening too: Anoana, Asja, Hamrer hippyer, Svanrand. And after those you listen to the rest of their songs :)
an amazing group and this was their first gig as a band and for Kai Uwe Faust his first time performing in public
Not something to be your everyday listen but I'd love to see this group live.
Really is beautifully organic and primal.
In Maidjan from the same concert is really dope.👌

They played Glasgow a few months ago, It was an experience
I'm so excited to see them live in October!!
FINALLY getting to see them live this weekend ❤ can't wait!
Check out Eivor Palsdottir
She has an incredible voice
You have to do it her theme to "The Last Kingdom" is incredible
Nick
Also looks like a Shield maiden/Valkerie
Recently fell in love with their music. Some rabbit hole :D Check out their other most popular songs. Anoana is a great cinematic video too. Great reaction, can see you feel the tribal DNA in you working :D
Check out all of their music…incredibly talented group! Heilung means healing. 😉👍
I would absolutely love to see these guys live!!!
Another unique band you may enjoy is Omnia...check out their joyful song, Fee Ra Huri!
Oh man, Heilung is an excellent rabbit hole to dive down

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

Glade you discovered Heilung. Wardruna is another one to check out if you enjoyed that experience. 😊

The European metalheads landed here in search of faster, harder, louder music. Co-founder Kai-Uwe is an avowed death metal fan, they play at metal festivals and release on a metal label.
All three met in the reenactment scene, where similar costumes are worn and people live according to the times. That's why nothing seems like it was staged. There's nothing set.
There are no musical recordings from before Christianization. What you hear is our idea of what it might have sounded like. In fact, there are several thousand years of musical development between them. The music back then was probably much simpler.
Another famous band is:
Wardruna and Aurora - Helvegen (Live)
Their song Ajsa is awesomly intense!
I saw a live ritual a year ago. Was one of the most intense experiences I have had. They are awesome. Try Anoana, Norupo, Othan. Their song Nikkal is a song to the moon goddess Nikkal. Based on one of the oldest known songs from 1400 BC. Written down as cuneiform tablets and discovered in the early 1950’s. It’s the only one that was still in one piece. It consists of instructions to play the melody and sing the lyrics but true details have been lost over time.
Here is the original and beyond the english translation

i did wonder what the line was "morass of the red rain" as i hear that, but can also here "Moris of the red rain" both work in context (Moris as in Moris Dancers)
@@somthingbrutal Morass, maybe as in blood soaked dirt. Makes horrible, red mud
Btw...thanks for the translation
@@steveclarke4542 both words work one sounds more like you are happy to be there ;)
they are starting touring the U.S right now, please try to grab a ticket because seeing them live is quite an EXPERIENCE!!
Got a ticket three months ago for November!
@@steveclarke4542 excellent!!
Can't wait to know how you will feel after that! Enjoy it brother!!
@@maximebemer3407 Gonna wear ma' kilt. Motorbike coat, Underarmor t-shirt...don't know if flips or Redwing Iron Ranger boots
Probably more wavy-gravey than slam pit
I'll save that up for "Slaughter to Prevail" after the war is done
well, i can only repeat my suggestion for eivor, last kingdom main theme live at hammersmith apollo. she is truly a nordic goddess, unrivaled. and after that one, i'd reccomend falling free live at the old theater in tórshavn. or whatever you might pick. tròdlabùndin, wake me up, truth live at studio bloch, í tokuni music video, ....
she is one of those artists where you say "OMG, where has she been all my life???"
by the way, eivors native language, faroese, is closest to old norse together with icelandic
I love it too. To me it takes back to my (perceived) Celtic roots
Still gotta love Irish and Scottish pub jams. Fiddle, git, banjo, concertina, bodhran and singin'
i love your face, computing, error, processing ...................................................
I've seen them perform live once at a festival. I personally wasn't hooked.
My face was like yours at 5:00 and the multiple "What? 😐" You said during the video, were my thought during the whole show.
You made me cackle at 11:47 😆. And then "How is it going Susan?" 😂😂😂.
But I agree their artistic performance is phenomenal and the way the show is bought is a lot of work and they do it really good.
Just doesn't speak to me 🤷🏻♂️.
Awesome reaction. Want another bizarre experience? Check out The Hu. Great Chinggis or their version of Metallic "Sad but True". I always tell my friends that I have the widest taste in music and they don't believe me. I've blown a few people away by sharing this. Anowana by Heiling is gorgeous, too!
Mongolian folk metal?! Hoo-ahh!!
Definitely check them out! @@steveclarke4542
This song's lyrics actually are complaining abouy the dudes who grabbed oars and went to conquer shit- and ended up at some poor village. It's based off the text on an ancient stone commerating the battle that ensued, which the natives apparently won, at cost, leaving them wondering what divine force deemed to steer the raiders to their shores.
Sometimes you get the bear, other times...the bear gets you
Krigsgaldr- War magic or song. Pre viking iron age northern germanic inspired Amplified History.❤❤❤
You should watch MV's "In Madjan" and "Anoana".
Its a trance though eh? Could you imagine tripping acid at this, jesus. This is what you bring your friend to when its their first time tripping.
Another great band i follow, if you like them try the songs fylgija and anoana you might like them as well
The song name means "War sorcerer". Next Anoana, please
Welcome to Valhalla brother!! Where we feast and drink mead with Odin!
FYI they will be performing in Baltimore, MD next month.

@@steveclarke4542 i am planning to go to the Charleston, SC show.
Your face said it all, its alot to take in :)
And She use Humans Bone's :),But She so sweet and cute .
This gets my Celtic, Anglo, Viking DNA Buzzing 😠😠😠
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤love it
If I can remember correctly, these poor people have such a hard time going through airports because they use real bones(I believe human) as instruments.
war was an important part of the viking aera. while christians aim is to be a good christian to go to heacven after death, for a wiking the goal was to die on the warfield and go to walhalla. war was also neccessary to aquire new land for a growing population.
If you lock at the music video (not the live) you understand what the somg is about!
It's all about frequency
Seen them in the uk
Have a listen to EIVOR falling free this tune takes your soul away
Or, give it back. Too many people these days, their egos push out their souls
Check out Heilung - Anoana of Norupo... Stunning videos!
👏👏👍👍
👌👏👏👏💖
Only raid when needed
Welcome to the heathen world.

If you liked this, then you'll love Alfarhirhaiti!
Next Anoana, please
Who's getting sacrificed tonight???. Very Tribal this form of vocalisations where once common in our more primative past The Mongolians still use this way of singing. Eveytime i hear something like this i think of Conan or Vikings.
"The Hu". Mongolian folk-metal
You like this kind of music check out Skald and wardruna

Yup. Not all Nords were Vikings. More a task than a culture
Dis is Nordic an' Celtic. Trű
If you like the throat singing try The HU - Wolf Totem (Official Music Video).
