Can you imagine the amount of work that goes into memorizing an hours worth of an ancient language that you dont speak?

Whoever put ads in the middle of this deserves to have wet socks for the rest of their life

0 autotune 0 cars 0 money 100% praise of Odin

People who knew Heilung before Hellblade, good for you People who discovered Heilung thanks to Hellblad, good for you, too! We are all brothers and sisters!!

Imagine camping with these guys

I'm boycotting every business that interupts this masterpiece.

I hope this kind of music never dies. This is our roots and it doesn't matter who you are, this music makes you feel something. It's something old and ancient but you feel it in you and it brings people together, especially with nature.

To Corrupt Come, guest Tyr For this invocation I, the Rune Master, servant of Odin, call upon the one of the Sun to aid our army Ha Hu Hi He Ho He Hi Ha Hu Wealth, Aurochs, Thorn, Divine Breath, Travel, Torch, Gift, Joy, Hail, Need, Ice, Harvest, Tree, Luck, Elk, Sun, Creator, Birch tree Horse, Man, Water, Fertility, Day, Home Odin, prepare for battle! The title itself can be found in Mœso-Gothic Glossary from Anglo-Saxon as "In-Maidjan" which means "to change deceitfully" or "to corrupt". This makes sense since the entire story within Heilung's album consists of a peaceful village being corrupted by having to go to war. Therefore, Proto-Germanic seems to be the language this is from. "Harigasti Teiwa" is a Germanic reference to the Negau Helmet that contains various inscriptions including the words "harigasti teiwa(z)" which means "Harigast the priest". Though it could also mean "war god" since "hari" can be translated to war/warbringer, "gasti" as guest/person, and "teiwa(z)" as "god". Teiwa(z) (spelled as Tiwaz) is also the proto-Germanic name for the Norse God, Týr. For the sake of the song's theme, I went with "Come, guest Tyr" as this line was about invoking a God for war. Part of "Ek Erilaz Owlthuthewaz Niwaremariz Saawilagar Hateka Harja" can be found in the Lindholm Amulet where the line "ekerilazsa[w]ilagazhateka" or "Ek erilaz Sawilagaz haite'ka" is carved. Based on what wikipedia says about this: "This translates to "I am (an) erilaz (a rune master), I am called the wily" (or "I am called Sawilagaz). If the word in first line is translated as a name, Sawilagaz means "the one of the Sun (Sowilo)." If the word is translated as "the wily" or "crafty one" or "deceitful one," then it may be related to a byname of Odin or another god." We can use this to help translate. "Harja" from Anglo-Saxon means "army". "Ha Hu Hi He Ho He Hi Ha Hu" means nothing other than a chanting. The next bit are just names for Old Norse runes from the elder futhark, also known as the rune chant. They hold no particular meaning together in a sentence and instead are just supposed to be individual names. I did translate the runes in the chant based off their meanings but, again, did not put them into a sentence considering that that would be like trying to say the alphabet as a sentence. Note: certain runes (such as Ingwaz (Ing) and Perthro) can have slightly different translations based on the source. "Wuotani Ruoperath" seems to mean "Odin, prepare for battle" in Old High German. "Au Is Urki" (actually Alu Is Urki) can be heard in the last line of their last song "Hamrer Hippyer" where it means "May it be of help" or "may it heal/stop them" in Old Norse. Though i wasn't able to find anything on the other lines in the last bit, so I only translated Alu Is Urki.

*Is enjoying listening to Heilung but an Ad comes up* "Odin isn't pleased."

Everyone’s talking about Maria’s incredible solo in the later part of the song and her chanting with the other singers (both instances are incredible) but what really shook me was her banshee howl at 2:37. Seriously that sounded like a demon had come to reap my soul when I first heard it.

Im really happy Heilung is getting more recognition since the Hellblade announcement. Theyre really an incredible band.

"I'm a musician" "What do you play?" "The bones" My gym playlist is mostly heilung

with her voice she can control all 5 elements of the nature. So powerful.

I played this to my bonsai and now it's Yggdrasil...

3 years ago, I was physically and sexually abused by my partner, lost that 8 yr relationship, was taunted by my ex with lawyers, he tried to commit suicide and was hospitalized on the same day my dad was rushed into ER for emergency surgery, I lost my house, my job, and had to drop out of college... All in a few months. I am finishing my thesis now, and the pressure takes me right back to my trauma. I turned my back on the trauma, trying to move on, but it casts a long and dark shadow over me. I need this primordial battle-cry to turn around and face these demons. Thank you for this music!

Everyone - A band that doesn't play Metal will never be accepted into the Metal community.. Heilung - Hold our antlers..

There is something about Heilung that makes me feel better. Coming from someone who has suffered depression for years now. Every time I've felt really low, their music helps bring me back. Amazing :-)

My son (who is 7 months old) loves this song and will only fall asleep while listening to the live version 😅 also his name is Loki

This should be played in schools. Not only to summon odin, but also for children to learn runes.

When the female vocalist reached her peak, I legit cried. This is the first time I cried because of the pure sound of music. Wow🔥🔥🔥

So basically this is a badass proto-germanic version of the alphabet song

The entire experience is next level powerful and Maria's vocals from 7:44 are like another dimension altogether. Those who saw this live were truly blessed. Thanks so much for sharing this powerful musical experience.

This made me cry I felt something awaken inside of me I can't describe it. I recently got into heilung and I can't stop listening to them.

This band deserves its name. ("Heilung" = "Healing")

Even though I am an Indian, but listening to Heilung makes me feel more related to them. It's like the music brings out a primal nature inside you which you can feel more related to.

At this point I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve rewatched this video, and still, every single time I’m enraptured. After seeing them live every time I hear their music it just feels 10 times more powerful.

This music awakens something very old and primal inside me that's been buried, deep in my DNA and bones. I feel like it's the sounds of my ancestors, the nurturing tribe I never had. I once met a Native American woman who reminded me that we have all been colonized and brutally silenced, even the indigenous Europeans who had a deep connection to the earth. It's time we all unite with indigenous peoples of the world and remember what it really means to be human, so we do not lose our connection with the earth and what is sacred.

It’s fucking amazing that a human voice can do what she does with hers. This is like, the greatest vocal performance by a human in the universe.

Prehistoric drums were often meant to simulate the beating of a heart. It’s how many cultures were able to attain trance and ecstasy states. It’s not just audibly grounding but physically as well, with the vibrations of the drums and dancing of feet.

When I first watch Hellblade 2 trailer then the song come up I got chills man.. This band is frickin awesome!

Played this song and tried to do clean my house. I ended up burning my house down.

When Maria sings you can hear the Mother Earth calling

I don’t go to church anymore after I discovered this band. When I feel that my spirit needs healing I listen to the rhythm of the drums and this woman’s angelic voice and I’m so much better afterwards. Heilung thank you so very much for this beautiful message.

Scandinavian and German Pre-Christian culture is very, very similar. I love those old pagan songs so much! I am originally from east asia and a lot, especially music and their beat reminds me also of mongolian folklore. Absolutely stunning!

The runes sung in a circle… This is a chant of protection that can’t be easily broken.

FUN THEORY TIME Scandinavia has a disproportionate number of heavy/death metal bands because growling was always in their culture

Warrior, shaman & druid buffing the raid.

A friend recommended this song to me, I never thought that a simple song can put you in a trance so fast, this song gives me enormous warmth from inside and I don't understand why, and I can't stop listening to this song, I think this song is addictive ,is curious i think.

this has awakened something inside of me... I never knew was there. Thank u .. and I am happy that we are all one family

I've been without my anti depressants for over a week now, I was starting to feel the worst I've felt in a while and yesterday I discovered Heilung and I don't even feel like I need them anymore, this music fills you with such a sense of power, strength and confidence. I adore this.

The call of the ancient northern forests is still very strong to those whose kin are Brother Wolf and Brother Bear and hear the Great Mother in the snow flecked wind. Hail my Nordic cousins from a Celt.

I was fortunate to be a part of a Heilung crowd this summer. It was different from every other show I've ever seen. An absolutely remarkable experience.

My favorite vocal moment in any song or performance has been Roger Daltrey screaming, "YEEEAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH" in "Won't get fooled again." Maria Franz may have taken the lead with that performance.

This is a another level of metal all together. You just need drums, insane vocals and be fluent in old norse!

The lady singing looks like a human version of vicar Amelia

After seeing Heilung in Chicago a week/close to 2 weeks ago and seeing these songs played in person was an honor and pleasure. I was going through a lot of emotions that night. I was singing along to this part. There was a woman I was next to said that her children heard me getting all pumped and getting into it and that I made their day was just pure awesome! It was wild!

I just found out about them tonight, and I'm completely blown away. I didn't even know that this was a thing, that music like this existed. There's something so primal, so innately human about this, it's incredible.

This group has the best comment sections

I love you heilung, Maria your voice is the voice of the universe.

Damn Maria's voice range is incredible.

The similarities of primitive tribal music from different cultures are very interesting. Celtic music and Native American music has a lot of similarities. Tibetan and Nordic seem to also but then again I've never really listened to much Tibetan music. I'm thinking it's because they are all human with voices and hands creating music out of the surroundings.

Saw them for the first time last night and they were absolutely incredible. This was the first song that introduced me to them and hearing this live... I felt like I left the venue a completely different person. I cannot wait to see them again.

How come I never heard this band before? This is a masterpiece! So beautiful. So primal.

This is the most intense alphabet song I've ever heard!

This incredible masterpiece is transforming. The best music/song for meditation. Thank u so much, Heilung and to Maria Franz for her unique voice. Be blessed.

This is the most badass version of the ABC's there is.

I’m an indian and I don’t understand a bit of this song but still i like this very much i don’t know why

Every day I live feels like an endless torment, no positive feelings whatsoever just always dull and grey. The only constant I can count on feeling is anxious and worried about shit that doesn't matter. This music makes me feel something else outside of that which I can't nail down but it for whatever reason I end up in tears when I'm listening. Why lol

9:05 holy shit.. Maria is incredible.

Diese Welt braucht Heilung. 💙

I can't get enough of this. Music expresses itself as a living entity through those willing to embrace it. This is a wonderful example of that

I get tears and goosebumps Every time I hear Marias voice

DAMN GIRL thats range, ladies and gentlemen.

Any roman soul: Why do I hear boss music?

Been a while since I came back to hear this song. Still gives me goosebumps every time. ❤

Alter...diese Frau macht mich wahnsinnig...großartige Leistung!

This music just touches something so carnal in me. ❤

best song for the performance... I have no words

This sounds so much more amazing live. Music like this is meant to be done in an open area and include many others.

Who here has been a fan since the beginning and about lost it when they watched Senuas saga teaser and heard the song!?

I've never been to a concert; and I am 33. I would love for these guys to be the first concert I ever go to. I love their music so much.

2 thoughts: 1.) I feel like going to battle now... Neat. 2.) I would have noped out of my army if I were a soldier in the past and heard this start pulsating through the wilderness around me.

I love how this is metal af but basicly they're just saying their ABC's

Hail Odin for creating this magical group!!

Love Heilung and like Hellblade!

the vocals on that woman are absolutely gorgeous; listening to her is a true pleasure.

9 scared Romans disliked the post

I'm getting a strong urge to go grind my axes and put on warpaint.

i have been listening Heilung for years and i can't get enough. This is something else entirely, how and what i feel...

I’ve never felt so badass while eating doritos

For a very first LIVE performance and recording ever, this is by far outstanding and not matched easily.

My inner viking says to me: *It's the time*

This reminds me of something I lived, but I don't remember when

To all the new people arriving due to Hellblade. I just want you all to remember. That this space is as much yours as anyone else's. Don't let gatekeeping bastards push you away!

Out of this world! 🕊

WHY I DIDN'T KNOW YOU BEFORE?! YOU ARE AMAZIG!!!

Maria's voice is unbelievable....

I’m 90% sure that this makes everyone who hears this want to start banging their heads and preparing Viking boats

Senua knows good music.

Absolutely incredible. Her voice touches an ancient chord within me, frees the shackles and embraces the elements and the forces.....

Hellblade anyone ? This shit is amazing and it was perfect for the trailer man...

A fu***ng doritos ad right in the middle of this masterpiece. Rage watched it from 0:00 again

I just like how the music transitions from heavily charged and motivated as the battle begins to sadness and anguish when you realize that despite winning a war you still have lost because many have died in battle and then it turns into some sort of a twisted form of hatred and revenge for the lost lives which could lead to this whole cycle beginning again. That's how I interpret the music. I know that the album is about a peaceful village being forced to go to war and I just thought the music itself portrays the emotions a person might go through during war very very well and it is just absolutely amazing.💖💕

we servants of odin are healed

Saw them live last year.. Her voice is just as amazing if not better in person!

Ninja theory got Heilung, now they should also include Warduna.

01:00 all day i hear and sing alone like i can, only then i can calm and sleep. This is greatest songs, i go soo far with this fierce songs
