  • Heilung is amplified history from early medieval northern Europe and should not be mistaken for a modern political or religious statement of any kind.
    Remember that we all are brothers
    All people, beasts, tree and stone and wind
    We all descend from the one great being
    That was always there
    Before people lived and named it
    Before the first seed sprouted

      Hollywood and the church have really scrambled up people's perceptions about the world and what resides within it. Sounds like your friend has been fed the same propaganda from the middle-ages.
      A band called 'Heilung' meaning 'Healing' that advocates peace, to live & let live.. if this concept is weird, and clearly evil then your friend is in serious need of getting their head checked at the very least.
      It's that same narrow minded understanding & hard-line ideology that has gotten so many generation's murdered or outright liquidated from memory. Just like in the song, the attacking force refuses to live & let live.

Something I’ve noticed is that music really helps me to relax a bit more and I’m much more likely to get some sleep now listening to something. Ever since I started listening to Heilung, I’ve noticed it helping a lot more on top of everything and I’m so grateful this group exists.

      We are all one, coming from the same place....
      We whites got pretty lucky with the best spawn location in the world for advancing tech-wise....Horses and other draft animals, rich in pure iron, and an extremely diverse ecosystem that perpetuated so many different cultures to grow in close proximity. All whilst also being generally pretty safe environmentally, compared to other parts of world (less disasters, less predatory animals that are huge and can easily kill a man, less extreme weather that acctualy affects brain usage [heat stroke]. Humans can brave cold and lose a limb over it, but extreme heat cooks your brain...).
      Not to mention being in such a location that was hard to reach or mysterious to Asia/Africa. A boon though, because it inspired them to explore the unknown, or invade. Mongols brought us better horses, philosophies, and war tactics. Africans/central Asians brought us better forging techniques, and craftsmanship principals like mathematics, and engineering.
      We just used everything the world gave us to the greatest of our ability like any other human culture would strive to do.
      -Native Americans were still tribal because they didn't have horses, or much forging/tech knowledge. No true system of mathematics. They were too separated from everyone else to benefit from our togetherness, not really their fault at all. (same goes for any far separated native group. Look at pupa new ginie, or the amazon.
      -Mongols had little resources in terms of their geology, and had to take what they could, or trade with other cultures. Using their mass supply of horses to get around and discover new things.
      -Central Asians and North Africans live in deserts/savannahs and life can be scarce, and so concentrated on survival and daily needs.
      South Africans suffer from the no horses problem too, and while they did have draft animals (elephants, bison,etc) they had a lot more environmental hazards to deal with compared to anywhere in Europe. (Lions, cheetahs, hyena's, etc). They had wayyyy more environmental extremes to deal with than most Europeans on average.
      I make all these points to highlight how lucky we are a ethnicity among the people. That it is our duty to help elevate the other peoples to enjoy the luxuries of safety and technology that have been shared with us through the generations.
      The reality is, no matter how much we fight, how much we say we hate each other, we all have a part of one another in us. We are all one people with common goals. (unless your a socio or psychopath....)

      K-aW-tEk God your point pissed me off. You have the exact mentality of the conquistadors: "we have the good culture, everything else is savagery." Native Americans were happy before French people got there. They had their own culture and respected nature, something we're clearly lacking today. They were all about balance and family and respect. What is it about now again? Individuality, destruction and disrespectful behaviour. Maybe we should've adopted their culture instead? Without all that pollution and complications to life that are maths and metallurgy. Get out of your simple world and face reality.

    Krigsgaldr means "War chant" or "war incantation". Krigs is the "pregerman" word for war (as Krieg is now) and Galdr is like "a spell ritual performed with sound", which is the caster voice.

    What I like about this song, is that it does not celebrate war and combat, unfortunately like too many artists in this corner of music do, stuck in the "viking" blood-and-thunder mindset.
    It begrudges it. It hates it. It makes peace with the fact that conflict, and regrettably, combat is a part of human nature and evolution, but these people did not want this. These people did not enjoy this. They lost their own, they were raped, tortured and killed, and were pushed to the point of exterminating their enemy. But there was no celebration, only quiet afterwards. Quiet for healing and mourning. Because no loss of life should be celebrated, only regarded as necessary.

    As a historian, I am most seriously impressed how much this composition and presentation combines. A commentary of the conditions of the early human experience. The story is as old as time and universal even until this moment. A group of people tribe together to survive the rigors and enjoy the experience of life, only to be targeted by other human beings with a different agenda. There is conflict, murder, pillage, woe, and assumption of victory. This is followed by vengeance and slaughter. We , humanity, are a disappointing lot. We are born with all the potential to truly be natural and beneficial. We know the ideal, but all of those we encounter affect what we become.

    • @oni2538
      @oni2538 Před 5 lety +55

      Conflict, murder, pillage, woe, and assumption of victory, and the effects thereafter of vengeance and slaughter, are natural. One may only be disappointed because one wishes that man be what he is not. Expectations must be curbed- we can only hope to improve the lot of mankind by first recognizing what he is intrinsically, and then working upon that foundation. One cannot make an individual of an ant; one cannot make a cosmopolitan of tribal hominoids. One can try, and indeed, many have tried- and all we have to tangibly show for it are inflamed and exaggerated tribal sentiments, horrible tragedies, and countless innocents lost to a conflict they never knew they were a part of. Thus the great cycle of time turns, round and round- viewed from outside as a wheel- viewed from within as a mill grinding slowly, yet grinding exceeding small; patiently and thoroughly, with exactness grinding 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 (of purification)
    Look like dying embers

Before there was organized religion, there was the everlasting Sun and Moon, which meant everything to our great civilization's. Before we uttered our first words, there was the Drum and Heartbeat, pumping though our veins and it became the measure of our fleeting days. Before buildings rose up to touched the sky, there were the Great Mountain's and deep Valley's, cycling everything we needed ― Everything only went wrong, when someone said "More", "Mine" and "Me" instead of saying "Us"'.... !!!
    I see great nation's make promises to the Earth, every few years, but they always say "Tomorrow" or "Later" ― We need not forget, that today in South America, they still pours gasoline on the Rain Forest and burn away 120 acres per minute. Why, because of gold.... !!!
    I need not sermonize to all ― Eventually, the Earth will always find a way to heal Herself, even if, it means to decimate humanity. She's already begun with the Covid-19 viruses, a volcanic explosion, Russia's determination to wipeout another nation, and so much, much more to come.
    If your here listening to Heilung's music, then you are only half-the-way across the bridge between harmony and devastation. As the Sun rises here across my ancestral lands, I share my heart-felt prayers' with anyone who feels Her warmth. Please, continue to talk to your government, to stop the destruction everywhere.

    Heilung are able to create an amazing pastiche of the mindset of human beings from a time long past, a time when the world was a far more brutal and fearful place. There's a tremendous feeling of ancientness to the music, and it allows me to understand on an emotional level the truth that the people who lived in the ancient past were as human as you or I. I'm glad to live in a relatively peaceful time and place, but the positive experience I take away from the music here is that even when the world was dark and violent there was still meaning, beauty and healing to be found. I find that a comforting thought.

    I think I understand the song better now, thanks to the video. I thought english part that starts with "What am I supposed to do…", at first I thought that this part was the "Kriegsgaldr", the war magic, or incantation intoned before the inevitable battle, because as much as peace is desired, the attackers only know the language of the sword. I thought it was the battle magic woven by the defenders to aid them.(maybe it is, as well). Now I see how the proto-norse lyrics, which are the words found on the eggja stone (the eggja stone is a tomb stone with proto-norse inscription, found in Norway) (the ones that tell of a shipwreck in a far off land) are describing the effects of the retaliatory war magic cast at the fleeing attackers. The "villager" at 6:45 is grieving for his slain love, so he eats the sacred mushrooms and enters into a shamanic trance. There he is transformed from ordinary mortal and assumes a more primal divine spirit shape (with the antlers, beating on the shamanic drum). The proto-norse words say "Vil (the seagod, or just divine will) threw a death wave over the boat, the mast snapped, the oars were useless, the wave, like a godly-fish from Firnøy’s streams, out of river-fear swimming,
    as fowl, out of f(?) crowing(from our crowing/incanting (the crow shaped branch calling out a malediction). The few survivors who make it to shore, are now on the receiving end of violence from the "little snails", (which btw, show up a lot in the margins of illuminated medieval manuscripts) which they so carelessly and effortlessly crushed under foot earlier.
    And so, through "kriesgaldr", or war magic, vengeance is brought upon the departing invaders. Not too unlikely use of magic, since historicaly it was not uncommon for magic workers to curse an enemy's ships. (one of the witches from MacBeth is another famous literary reference to this kind of magic.)
    The eegja stone has quite a few different interpretations. I love this artistic interpretation from Heilung. Bravo.

      The purpose of art is to be comfortable. Art should be beauty so it can be a relief from the suffering that comes with life. Only in the early 20th century we somehow forgot about it. Great art always intended to be comfortable up until Dechamp came along and desecrated all over it.

    This video is so creepy. I'd say this is the most disturbing clip around. I love the symbolism. The young boy who find power through love, who turns into a self-confident man when he can reach the girl. Then, even more powerful by learning the ways of nature and becoming a shaman. At the other hand, the ones who seek power and realization at the death.
    The war scenes are badly awful. We have explicit and realistic fiction everyday but those simple and primitive images are so powerful. They cause a deep horror. Amazing and touching clip...
