Please, GRAI, if there's not material at the time for new album, could you do more covers on Alkonost, your Years of Prophecy cover is the best thing i ever heard, period. You realy can take songs to a new level!
Great song, great band and a great reaction! Grai is pronounced gr-eye or like rye bread with a hard g sound in front. The name translates as the cry of birds, like crows and ravens. Mara is the spirit of winter and death. This video is allegorical. The band is from central Russia from Tatarstan.

I've been into them for a year or so. Even though I can't understand the vocals, they are great along with the very heavy metal playing. This song was the one that introduced me to Grai on UA-cam, when I was watching another Russian metal group who used canned keyboards. The musicianship of Grai is superb.
I feel the same listening to this one, great song, and a band i never heard before, so yes i have to see what else this band can bring to the table surely!!
Wow would never expect someone to react to this hidden gem, made my day ! Since you loved it so much, you should check out Eluveitie : one of the biggest folk metal band out there. The song rebirth is usually the starting point ;)
Mara is the goddess of the Slavic pantheon who symbolizes death and winter cold. Morana's image is not identical. She stands on the guard of the worlds of Reveal and Haven, meets the souls of the dead. The Goddess Mara among the Slavs is strict and principled, she does not forgive change, who turns to her for help and does not hold his word will be punished by death.
Mara - Slavic Goddess of winter and a dream of calm, she is a Death. Thats why a warrior running away in the clip)) he scared) and he died, Mara took him in her arms. Zima - is a Winter on Russian lang. Belaya zima - white winter. It's a Russian band)
The English translation into the meaning of this song... The white winter came though had not asked. It goes on to explain how severe the winter was while the sun hid. She could not sleep and it had knocked on her window. It took her beloved away from her. It ruined her soul. The fierce winter took her to the arms of Mara.
Its slavic pagam metal band from Naberezhnye Chelny, Tatarstan formed in 2005. It’s name - “GRAI” meaning the bird’s cry. If you like Floor, you will like the band Tigersclaw, because Elena Minina is beautiful & sings divinely. Here is a link, her singing & playing the piano ua-cam.com/video/RQmeqJukJHM/v-deo.html. Back to slavic pagan metal: Arkona (great Masha), Alkonost, Woodscream, Невидь ( www.last.fm/music/%D0%9D%D0%B5%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D1%8C )
If you want something more gentle, try GRAI - The Winter's Tale If you want something something tougher, try GRAI -Tread of Winter or even better they cover on Years of Prophecy
Wellcome to the world of folk-metall then) It's as diverse as humanity itself, so you'll allways find something new. As for Gry, Arkona, etc. - vocal harmonics are the Russian folk-music in a nutshell, so you just have to mix a metall in and here you go)
The white haired woman in the video clip is "Mara". She takes the life of the warrior. The growl accompanied at the end of the song is supposed to represent death, as she says, "zabrala milogo drouga"/"she took my kind friend away".
Second biggest pagan metal band in Russia after Arkona I think... in my view they are amazing and it is a bit sad that they are not bigger and on bigger stages..... and yes that is growling they have a third male vocalist (basist I think) that does growling.... more prominent on other songs..... I am not into pagan metal normally but Grai blew me away
This is very good. It reminds me of a Russian band named Arkona, except not as heavy. Arkona's vocalist (Masha "Scream") can also growl but not like Tatiana from Jinjer. Here's a song to check out..if you like it, maybe you could do a reaction to one of their other songs. (ua-cam.com/video/SgXlUxDGFvU/v-deo.html). Cheers!
Уславян никогда не было такой бесчеловечной всеуничтожающей религиозной уверенности как у германцев в своих местных богах, их там было много и по всякому случаю, воины поклонялись Перуну громовержцу, что весьма не то что Один, это Тор, но и он не был единственным были боги солнца, неба, земли, воды, были и всякие потусторонние персонажи типа Велеса, но такого дерьма как Один не было. Вот тутпесня про Мару по-сути убийцу всего живого, за что (?) да ни за что, жить не умеете, а то что она так запрограммирована, она не Один, она не хочет взять верх, не хочет уничтожить абсолютно всё живое у неё нет такой функции, а ваши Один с вальхалой это торжество античеловечности у нас такого не было.
И не надо к нам примазываться вечно, у вас язык в сравнение с нашим искалечен каким-то весьма не славянским (ну влингвистике и историографии нас принято объединять в одно целое,- славян, балтов, германцев, нет, нет, нет) нет, я на такое допущение не согласен.

Mara is the Slavic goddess of winter and death. The character of the video is a warrior. Mara takes his soul to heaven.

I discovered this song a few month ago and listened to it since than at least 20 times. Probably you will also be interested in Heilung and Myrkur.
This song takes us to the deep roots of Russian culture.
Да сложно сказать чего тут больше, русской культуры или кельтской. 🤷♂
@@ИванБакастов-х6ж а что там кельтского, и что не может быть общего в культуре кельтов и северной части Руси ?

GRAI (which means a bird cry) is a folk metal band from the very center of Russia - the republic Tatarstan. Created in 2005
Насколько я знаю, они из Челнов.
- Yes... Awesome!!!

Glad you enjoyed it, Rene! More coming soon! :)
Я живу в Ижевск, Удмуртия. А эти ребята находятся рядом, в Набережных Челнах, Татарстан
А еще Алконост!)) Две мои самые любимые фолк-метал банды из россии в одном городе появились ))

Welcome to the slavic world
Fine song
Dude, you are really cool, if you think so. I am russian. I like your reaction.
Солистка прекрасна
Лучшая группа нашей страны
If You like it, just look for "Skyforge" from LATVIA!

Рекомендую Aeterna - перекрёсток. Вам тоже понравится )
I’m a big fan of Grai. Somehow I missed this when you did it.
it's called pagan metal
Mara is goddess of winter in Slavic pagan pantheon

Bit late to the party but another female fronted Russian folk metal band worth checking out is Ruyan - their track Дружина is a great starting point!
thanks for your reaction, technically the name of the song is - "In the Hugs of Mara"
Wellcome to the world of folk-metall then) It's as diverse as humanity itself, so you'll allways find something new.
As for Gry, Arkona, etc. - vocal harmonics are the Russian folk-music in a nutshell, so you just have to mix a metall in and here you go)
Mara: Goddess of winter, Goddess of death and darkness in the pre-Christian, pagan, Slavic belief system.
The white haired woman in the video clip is "Mara". She takes the life of the warrior. The growl accompanied at the end of the song is supposed to represent death, as she says, "zabrala milogo drouga"/"she took my kind friend away".

I also saw this one in the live stream...of course I'll watch and give it a thumbs-up for that UA-cam algorithm!
Please react to CLUTCH (the best band you've never heard of ©). I suggest for your first go, either Electric Worry (their most well-known song), Burning Beard, 10001110101 or A Quick Death In Texas.
FYI...this same comment will appear ONLY if I have watched your reaction video. I am not here to spam your channel...I just want to help get a great band some much deserved recognition. P.S....I will always give your reactions a thumbs-up, even if I don't care for or like the band or song you react to...because I like you and your channel.
