Still their best track. I don't know why, but they are incredibly good at combining Folkish metal with "carribean" influences (Unbesiegt is the other example) Turis Fratyr reigns as one of my top Album!
Songs like this are why I love this band. We all know how great these guys are at black/viking/folk metal, but to be able to incorporate a raggae sort of style into metal (which I don't think has ever been done before) and actually have it sound great, is what makes these guys such musical geniuses.
When this night turned at the hill the sun came He divined the values of the song he divined what will come And so he drew his blade from the sheath to the high When suddely the north winds sent there freezing flaw. Last paragraph is missing because I can't translate this really good :P
Reggae-ish beat at the start and Caribbean influences, Japanese title, German folk metal band and lyrics, epic/viking-ish sounding parts... what am i missing?
+Björn Mätal It's not brutal enough for me... i tend to headbang to brutal music. This is epic/heroic music instead, where i think of frozen northern lands, seas and heroes instead of headbanging. Different points of view.
TeraVolt Then you should start using "I" instead of "you" in your sentences, in case you're talking about your own taste. Makes stuff easier to understand. What say you, deal?
Hat mich irgendwie sofort auf unsern Hermann gebracht, wenn man sich seine Satue so anschaut :D Geiles Lied, egal welche Einflüsse oder wie viele Genres. Das Lachen von Helge am Anfang ist der Hammer!
+Naomi Cristerna In other words: it's true music. I'm not saying that metal, be it Heavy, Thrash, Folk, Death, Brutal Death, Black, Progressive and the like is the only true music and other genres are just trash. I'm saying there's both rubbish and true music around in all flavors, be it also R&B, Synthpop, Pop, Pop Rock and Classical (the other genres i often found myself listening to). I enjoy true metal and i also tend to enjoy every kind of true music even outside of the Metal realms and stay away from the rubbish, even within Metal itself. Then, notice that i tend to prefer brutal Metal music, but when i'm outside of the Metal mood, towards R&B and synthpop, calm and relaxing music is what i mostly enjoy, but when i start traveling back to Metal and stop into the indie-alt rock border (bands such as The Servant and Placebo) i start to like darker music.
wenn ich das richtig verstanden habe dann ist Shingo Murata ein Japanischer Freund von Equilibrium ;D ( kein scherz ). Desweiteren war der song ein ziehmlich spontaner einfall ( was ihn umso bessr macht ^^)
Rake your flames harder watch there bright shine Say: what do you want? So fill you up! Where someday the Aesir went far over field and stone there song will sound will be craving.
Ja das stimmt hat nich wirklich viel bezug zum Text ^^ andere Frage soll das Mandred in deinem nickname zufällig auf den Mandred in "Die Elfen" anspielen ? xD
Ok, i was wrong AND right. Shingo Murata is not a word with a special meaning and so not found in the Japanese Vocabulary. BUT it's a Name, a japanese name without any real meaning, AND it's the name of a good friend of the Band Equilibrium, a japanese friend. Oh , and the intro really is from Monkey Island ^^ it's purpose
Hm... I tried to translate the lyrics: Sry 4 Bad English! If you lay down your Blade lay down shield and spear Hear the heathland singing songs Listen to the ocean
jah ok im gegensatz zu zB suicide silence , stimmt das schon ,wobei an vielen stellen is es tdem schwer ;) , aber das is mal ne Musik hören Vorderung ;)=D!!
I can tell ya why u cant find a translation, they sing in OLD German, no one speaks now in Germany like that. Maybe on LARP .....but thats another point ^^

It's the name of a Japanese friend of the band, they once promised that they would name a song after him :D
04:10 gate to where magic happens. a masterpiece truly
Sounds a bit Dragonforce-esque imho

When this night turned
at the hill the sun came
He divined the values of the song
he divined what will come
And so he drew his blade
from the sheath to the high
When suddely the north winds
sent there freezing flaw.
Last paragraph is missing because I can't translate this really good :P
shingo murata is a japanese friend of the band and as heroic shingo murata sounds, his surname means ricefield village^^
Hmm, quite possibly the best song I've ever heard.
Genial, einfach nur genial.
Das ist der wohl einzige Pagan Calypso-Metal-Song !!!
Reggae-ish beat at the start and Caribbean influences, Japanese title, German folk metal band and lyrics, epic/viking-ish sounding parts... what am i missing?
+TeraVolt A neck broken by the excessive headbanging?
+Björn Mätal Strangely enough Equilibrium doesn't make me headbang. I tend to headbang to Cannibal Corpse, not folk metal.
TeraVolt
Its folk/pagan/power/black/symphonic/melodic/epic/other mixture and headbanging material for sure!
+Björn Mätal It's not brutal enough for me... i tend to headbang to brutal music. This is epic/heroic music instead, where i think of frozen northern lands, seas and heroes instead of headbanging. Different points of view.

Por qué no salió en ningún album este tema ? O lo tocan en vivo ?

Hell yeah!
Equilibrium hamm's einfach druff!
@FerralD3mur And the whole song kicks 50 more.
Cuando equilibrium rifaba
@braveraxeblade check out his new band, Arafel. they play a pretty different style of metal, but it's really awesome, the first great album from 2011.
jah ok im gegensatz zu zB suicide silence , stimmt das schon ,wobei an vielen stellen is es tdem schwer ;) , aber das is mal ne Musik hören Vorderung ;)=D!!

Is Shingo Murata German or Japanese? it sounds like a heroic Japanese name
Ist ja auch nen Bonus Track ;)
1:10 symphonic metal part \\,,// yeah

@glorifyyourname
I'm german, but I live in Holland. There that our languages dont differ SOOOOO much, it's not hard to understand some parts for you.
@WingedFlames Kann ich nur zustimmen aber auch Deutschland hat viele geile Metal BAnds das is zwar in Europa aber nich in Skandinavien ;D
Sadly this song is not available on Spotify.
This would be on my spotify wrapped every year if it was on there.

I can tell ya why u cant find a translation, they sing in OLD German, no one speaks now in Germany like that. Maybe on LARP .....but thats another point ^^
Wie san die Deutschen gell und die Bayern Equilibrium vorever!!!!!
woher die schlechten ratings????
er hat doch recht Oo
@DerekLicon
And he doesn't say any bands that should be better than Equilibrium :) I wonder why!
What does Shingo Murata mean?
could our germen friends tell us what this songs about please ? :D
@hahahadracula
Nice I am not the only one :P
what does it mean Shingo Murata?
mit jelent az, hogy Shingo Murata?
I live here in West Germany, but in don't understand the text.....^^
Maybe it's because that carribean stuff sounds very natural and archaic and Equi simply knows how to use that stuff to make it sound "nordic"? :S
@thevillageyid afaik
Was? Der Sänger ist ja schon überdeutlich ^^
@LesMuise Seriously?
jeder spricht so
ä everybody speaks this german it is normal german
(you can`t understand the text but it is normal german)
@ S0up3rD0up3r:
u can learn german but you dont will understand any word :D i am german and don´t understand all words right ;)
Ok, hat mich nur gewundert, weil der Titel ja keinen Bezug zum Text hat. ^^
AHAHAHAHA i love trolls
hahahahahahah, oh wait, you're serious? HAHAHAHAHAHHAH
Kann jemand mir erklären, was "die Asen" sind?
Die nordischen Götter, also Odin, Thor, etc.
