Brothers and sisters!! Thank you all so much for your great responses so far! We are truly honored and grateful for everyone who joins us in this adventure. If you like what you hear, you can listen and save "Een Verloren Verhaal" on Spotify: sptfy.be/z8e9l
Holy hell! So many bands want to make folk-metal and end up doing a cheap imitation of Finntroll or just heavy metal with keyboards on top - Vanaheim shows true commitment to composition and storytelling just within this one song. I am hooked!
Alright! I pulled every strings possible for me, make sure you get in touch with Dong committee, would love to treat you guys to some beers next year!@@VanaheimOfficial
I have no idea why the UA-cam algorithm recommended this to me, but absolutely blown away! Great to have such high quality Dutch metal bands. Pre-ordered the album \m/
Hey it looks like something went right there! Happy that you were able to find our music, and that you like it as much as you do! Thanks a lot for your support. Because of you (and others who also pre-ordered we can do what we do. Big thanks!
Since you liked it, you might want to know their drummer Bram plays metal songs on request live on Twitch, and the other band members hang out in the chat too.😁 Here's his channel if you're interested: ➡️ twitch.tv/bram_trommelen As a member of his mod team, I'm sure you'll be warmly welcomed there whenever you decide to join us 🤗
Ik was zinnens om naar de show in Liège te komen kijken. Tot ik zag dat Vanaheim maar drie kwartier had… schandalig! Ik kom naar de show in Antwerpen volgend jaar! Dit album is magistraal hoor!!
Oh wow. What a bombastic track. This song is giving me a lot of early Equilibrium Sagas vibes and that's a good thing indeed! I don't typically order CDs but will definitely do for this gem!
@@VanaheimOfficial Listened to the whole album several times over and absolutely no regrets. I'm also loving the fact that the vocals are in your native language. Even though I don't understand a word, I can feel the energy, and man is it good! Keep it up and look forward to future projects :)
First saw you at Warhorns in 2019 and then twice again last year at Metal Monocle and HRH Vikings and have been absolutely fantastic every time! Very excited you finally have a full length album coming out! Track sounds fantastic!
Thanks for your support Azza!! Cool that you have partied with us, we had such great times at all these gigs! We hope you like the rest as well! Thanks for the compliment
Just a outstanding piece of music. I hear so many bands I love in it (Wintersun, Old Equilibrium....) and that on top level. I am really looking forward to hear the album on the 4th February. It's long ago I was so excited for a album like yours. Greetings from Germany. P. S. I showed it to my Dutch Metal brother Ed B. Check out his music. He is a beast
Thank you so much @Forest Of The Wolf Official! We're all glad you like it, and that it reminds you of some of these classics! Big compliments, and we're very thankful for that. We hope you'll like the rest of the album as well, let us know what you think about it when the 4th of February is upon us! Greetings to Ed!
Ohh awesome! Do you happen to remember who requested it? Also, you're very welcome to join their drummer's stream: ➡ twitch.tv/Bram_Trommelen He's currently on a break from livestreaming as Vanaheim is on tour, but he'll be back later this month. As his moderator, I'm sure you'll be warmly welcomed whenever you stop by 🤘🏻💜
Ik heb jullie voor het eest gehoord en gezien in Breda als support met de tour van Ensiferum. Helemaal te gek!!!! jullie hebben er een fan bij. Dit nummer is in 1 woord FANTASTISCH!!!!
Great Band! Saw them live with Manntra in Berlin. Didnt know them befor. I was so amazed!! They where great! I bought the Album after the Show. Vanaheim have a new Fan now :)
Het voorsmaakje gelinkt vanaf de GMM site smaakt alvast naar meer! Hoop jullie morgen op GMM in Dessel te zien...als ik niet vast kom te zitten in een epische file 🙂
@@VanaheimOfficial Equilibrium (met nadruk op de eerste 4 albums) is sowieso een van mijn favoriete bands aller tijden, weinig andere bands geven mij zo'n goosebumps als hun epische sound, ik heb diezelfde goosebumps ook bij dit album, echt super gaaf!! En dan nog 't feit dat ik landgenoot ben van jullie!!!! \m/ Groeten vanuit Maastricht
This is amazing, LOVE the atmosphere! Reminds me of early Equilibrium, but you definitely have your own sound that is uniquely Vanaheim. Very impressed \m/
Guys. Holy shit. 'Gevallen in de Nacht' showed up on my Spotify shuffle and I can't get enough of it. Just started branching out to the rest of the album. But honestly, I'm already sold on that one song.
qua sound klinkt het als een mix van een twee eetlepels Epica, een halve liter Ensiferum een theelepel korplikaani en met een snufje Ancient Rites in de vocals. dit klinkt GEWELDIG
Bizar! Ik was maandag nummers aan het opzoeken op Spotify waar ik herinneringen van vroeger aan had. Ik zocht op Vanaheim, een nummer van Therion. En kwam terecht bij deze band. Ik luister de hele week al jullie nummers op de fiets. Heerlijk!
Si se toman la molestia de traducir este humilde comentario, además de ser grandes músicos son grandes personas 😅😅 La verdad quedé asombrado, descubrí la banda y cancion en una publicidad mientras escuchaba Dimmu Borgir, iba a saltearla pero quedé asombrado con la calidad y perfección de la melodía, mis más profundos respetos, ojalá lleguen a muchas más personas!!
Damn, I wonder how I've never heard of you guys, your music is so Epic! my mind travels so far while listening to you guys!!! Love it! keep it up, you have my sub!!!
Now that I've listened to the whole album multiple times, this is my first impression: It's great! If I could, I would immediately order it on Vinyl. My expectation was that it would be a mostly consistent album where every song sounds similar to Reuzenspraak, so I was surprised at first that that's not the case. Every song has like a totally unique sound - I normally quite enjoy when bands sound exactly the same on all their albums and all their songs. What you've done with Een Verloren Verhaal is a very creative approach where it's very hard to tell anyone "listen to this one song and you'll know what the band is about". That's probably something good! Reuzenspraak is my favorite song of the album, as it reminds me the most of the kind of epic folk metal that I listened to a lot over time (old Equilibrium etc), so doing a music video of that was a good pick. After that I'd put Onbevangen (I love especially the second half of it), then Gevallen in de Nacht (reminds me of Nightwish , which is something I would not have expected in a folk metal album) and then Uit Steen Geslagen. The other songs I don't really put in that ranking as they're not really metal songs, but I think the Folkestral songs are really awesome, they just don't fit a ranking with a different genre. My only criticism of the album would be that the metal part is a bit short, so I would have loved to see a few more than 4 metal songs. Maybe 2 more songs similar in style to Reuzenspraak, that would have been perfect. Or maybe 2 covers of other popular folk metal songs, that would have been great too (like a Blut im Auge cover). But when the only criticism of an album is that you wish there would be more songs, then it of course means the album is great! Will the album ever be released on Vinyl? I actually own neither a CD player nor a Vinyl player, I only use Spotify to listen to music, but I do like to buy the music I like to support the hands, and then I much prefer to buy the Vinyl version as it just look a lot better hanging on the wall than a CD :)
Hey Thystros, thank you for your super awesome comment! Yes we we're actually working on 5 metal songs total for the album but we had a lot of composing problems for the 5th song. We just couldn't get it up to our standards that we've set for the other 4 metal songs so instead of having a mediocre / meh 5th song we choose to do 4 songs of which we were totally all convinced they lived up to our standards. We're considering to do Vinyl because of overwhelming demand, keep checking the socials to stay updated on it!
The vinyl is in pre-sale now! ➡ vanaheim.bandcamp.com/album/een-verloren-verhaal Also, their drummer does live streams on Twitch on Thursdays and Sundays; as his moderator, I can guarantee you'll be warmly welcomed there! ☺➡ twitch.tv/bram_trommelen
I stumbled upon your channel quite by accident, and to be honest, it's GORGEOUS!!!!!! Good luck in your creativity (and greetings from Russia, and sorry for the crooked English)
Their music is just so contagious isn't it? 🤩 Also, if you enjoyed the work from the gentleman on the drums, he plays song requests for free on Twitch! Here's his channel: ➡️ Twitch.tv/bram_trommelen As his moderator there, I'm sure you'll be warmly welcomed by us and our lovely community there as well 🤘🏻💜
Do you guys plan on getting signed by a label?? You guys deserve way more recognition, this album is a masterpiece! When I first heard you guys I thought you were signed by Napalm Records, because that's where alot of my favorite bands similar to you all are signed to, like Aephanemer, Aether Realm, Bodom After Midnight etc
Hey William! Well, it depends on what kind of a deal we would get. As an unsigned band we have a lot of possibilities and freedom but on the other hand we are almost doing everything by ourselves. We would definitely be interested in a label I would say, but it has to be the right one. Lets see what the future brings! Thank you very much for your nice comment. =)
Ik vind het een heel mooi nummer, maar ik moet moeite doen om de stemmen boven de instrumenten uit te horen en dat op professionele studio monitoring headphones. Klein puntje kritiek, maar niet bedoeld als gezeur. Subscribed.
Sounds very nice! I have never heard anything from you before, saw this being posted on Reddit as "Epic Folk Metal", which had me very interested as I really like the old Equilibrium (and am very sad about new Equilibrium). And yes, this is nice! This is what epic folk metal should sound like. And now I went to Spotify and looked through your songs, and I see your Mourning Palace cover! Which sounds great. And that made me remember that I saw a nice folk metal Mourning Palace cover on UA-cam around a year ago. And now that I look at your channel, that was yours! So actually, I have heard something from you before :P Now that I look at it again, the video quality of that cover back then was so much less impressive than this video here that I didn't immediately recognize it's the same band. Before I scrolled down after watching this video, I actually assumed I just watched some video on the Nuclear Blast YT channel with a few hundred thousand views, so it was surprising to see this is only at 3.3k views so far. You deserve more! Looking forward a lot fo the whole album. Also, I wish I'd understand the lyrics, but at the same time, one thing I really liked about old Equilibrium was that they had German lyrics which just fit great (well, I'm German). And I find it sad that they switched to English lyrics with their newer songs. So, while I wish your lyrics would be in English so that I can understand them, don't switch to English lyrics :P
Thank you very much @Tystros! Before we released REUZENSPRAAK, we also released one EP called "The House Spirit". It was released some time ago and if you listen closely, you can hear we tried our asses of to step up our game haha! We're glad to hear that it reminds you to (old) Equilibrium, which is also a bigger compliment then we can carry for we all love them. And nice that you found out about Vanacoustica as well! We can't stop thanking you for all your other nice words about us, so once again! THANKS!!!! Soon the lyrics will be available in multiple languages, so if you want to know what the story is about into the last detail, just hold on for some more days!! - Vanaheim
@@VanaheimOfficial Great to read that you all love Equilibrium; as far as i'm concerned, you've officially picked up their torch and i'll follow you as long as you'll keep on carrying it. And yes, this is how epic folk metal should sound like 👍 In regard to the language of your songs, i can only agree with Trystros. I've read all of the translations on your homepage, so first off thanks for that! Please don't change a thing - keep on telling your stories about giants and other magical things, historic battles & events in your native language. If you'll provide translations somewhere like you did with this album, that's totally enough for me 🙂 Honestly, i've been looking for music like this for years now and i can finally enjoy good epic folk metal again thanks to you guys. 🖤🤟

I would call it symphonic folkmetal...
Na anderhalf jaar nog maar 34k views? Veel te weinig! Crank up the numbers!

Apple Music recommended this album to me when it came out and damn, this is one of the best albums I have ever heard.
Cheers from Brazil, you guys are great !
Ahh que foda ver mais brasileiros fãs do Vanaheim!!
Kijk, DIT is nou eens Nederlandse muziek! Kan ik jullie ook toevoegen naast mijn jarenlange liefde voor Heidevolk, dank je wel jongens!
Tip: werp ook eens een blik op Solarcycles, vorige week live gezien voorafgaand aan Vanaheim. Je zult ervan smullen...

Thanks Thibaut!! Great to hear!
First time listening and I already love this. ❤ Or maybe I am just obsessed with metal from the Netherlands in general.
Thank you for your kind words!
@@VanaheimOfficial Graag gedaan 😁 And I just realised that you actually did German subtitles for the song which is quite surprising. 😁
First saw you at Warhorns in 2019 and then twice again last year at Metal Monocle and HRH Vikings and have been absolutely fantastic every time!
Very excited you finally have a full length album coming out! Track sounds fantastic!

Great. I was hoping to get some sleep and now I'm all energized and ready to live a fantasy adventure! Amazing song! 🤘⚡
Their music is just so contagious isn't it? 🤩
Also, if you enjoyed the work from the gentleman on the drums, he plays song requests for free on Twitch! Here's his channel:

As his moderator there, I'm sure you'll be warmly welcomed by us and our lovely community there as well 🤘🏻💜
Do you guys plan on getting signed by a label?? You guys deserve way more recognition, this album is a masterpiece! When I first heard you guys I thought you were signed by Napalm Records, because that's where alot of my favorite bands similar to you all are signed to, like Aephanemer, Aether Realm, Bodom After Midnight etc
Hey William! Well, it depends on what kind of a deal we would get. As an unsigned band we have a lot of possibilities and freedom but on the other hand we are almost doing everything by ourselves. We would definitely be interested in a label I would say, but it has to be the right one. Lets see what the future brings! Thank you very much for your nice comment. =)
I love it! You are amazing! Can't wait for more. :)
Thank you so much Sandy! Wait until you hear the track with your Cello, HOHOHOHOOOO! =D
@@VanaheimOfficial I'm sooo excited! Soon. :3
@@sandysch.1447 oh yes, very soon! =)
Meeslepend meesterwerk en sfeervolle video! 😃🤘🏻
Dankjewel Emilie!

Yes! That would be a dream come true!!! =D
Opa brasileiro? Bora divulgar a banda por aqui, é o jeito pra fazer com que produtoras de shows se interessem em trazê-los pra cá.
Klinkt super dik. Mooie clip. Lekker gewerkt!
Amazing, super epic ! ⚔️ looking forward to the full album !
Thanks a lot Hendrys!! Just some more days and then you will be able to hear it. We can't wait to show it
Well done!!!
Thanks @SuperVistaprint!!
Muito bom... Welcome Brazil São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro
Big thanks Cassio! We hope to come to your lands in the future!
Aeee outro brasileiro fã do Vanaheim! Seria muito bom ver os caras por aqui mesmo!
@@irineumaiden verdade no Thor Hammer Fest ou Odin Krieger Fest ou Dark Dimension Folk Festival
Amazing song!!
Thank you very much @Andreas!
Ik vind het een heel mooi nummer, maar ik moet moeite doen om de stemmen boven de instrumenten uit te horen en dat op professionele studio monitoring headphones. Klein puntje kritiek, maar niet bedoeld als gezeur. Subscribed.
Ik raad je aan om Vanaheim snel live te zien spelen. Het is een bak spectakel. Heb hen net in Baroeg gezien en in Mezz!😊
Dat de zang iets meer ingeblend is, is inderdaad iets wat meer mensen hebben opgemerkt. Maar goed te horen dat je er van hebt kunnen genieten! \m/
@@VanaheimOfficial Ik draag mijn Vanaheim t-shirt morgen op Pinkpop, mooie reclame!
Sounds very nice! I have never heard anything from you before, saw this being posted on Reddit as "Epic Folk Metal", which had me very interested as I really like the old Equilibrium (and am very sad about new Equilibrium). And yes, this is nice! This is what epic folk metal should sound like. And now I went to Spotify and looked through your songs, and I see your Mourning Palace cover! Which sounds great. And that made me remember that I saw a nice folk metal Mourning Palace cover on UA-cam around a year ago. And now that I look at your channel, that was yours! So actually, I have heard something from you before :P Now that I look at it again, the video quality of that cover back then was so much less impressive than this video here that I didn't immediately recognize it's the same band. Before I scrolled down after watching this video, I actually assumed I just watched some video on the Nuclear Blast YT channel with a few hundred thousand views, so it was surprising to see this is only at 3.3k views so far. You deserve more! Looking forward a lot fo the whole album.
Also, I wish I'd understand the lyrics, but at the same time, one thing I really liked about old Equilibrium was that they had German lyrics which just fit great (well, I'm German). And I find it sad that they switched to English lyrics with their newer songs. So, while I wish your lyrics would be in English so that I can understand them, don't switch to English lyrics :P
Thank you very much @Tystros! Before we released REUZENSPRAAK, we also released one EP called "The House Spirit". It was released some time ago and if you listen closely, you can hear we tried our asses of to step up our game haha! We're glad to hear that it reminds you to (old) Equilibrium, which is also a bigger compliment then we can carry for we all love them. And nice that you found out about Vanacoustica as well! We can't stop thanking you for all your other nice words about us, so once again! THANKS!!!! Soon the lyrics will be available in multiple languages, so if you want to know what the story is about into the last detail, just hold on for some more days!! - Vanaheim
@@VanaheimOfficial Great to read that you all love Equilibrium; as far as i'm concerned, you've officially picked up their torch and i'll follow you as long as you'll keep on carrying it. And yes, this is how epic folk metal should sound like 👍
In regard to the language of your songs, i can only agree with Trystros. I've read all of the translations on your homepage, so first off thanks for that! Please don't change a thing - keep on telling your stories about giants and other magical things, historic battles & events in your native language. If you'll provide translations somewhere like you did with this album, that's totally enough for me 🙂
Honestly, i've been looking for music like this for years now and i can finally enjoy good epic folk metal again thanks to you guys. 🖤🤟
jup, deze gaat op repeat
