Not easy to come after Wardruna/Heilung, but Eihwar has managed to become a new great band of our time. Eternal respect.

[@eihwar]

We still have a long way to go brother, but your comment still goes straight to our hearts. 🙏

[@jonathanmercer7109]

@@eihwar Making your own mark, brilliantly.

[@StrigoiVampire]

Heilung is masterpiece

[@zardoz5004]

I second this, and add Dead Can Dance to the list. I thought their energy could not be matched. Female and male duo, they rocked my world when I first heard them. My world has been rocked again.

[@libra.8772]

so true

[@zardoz5004]

I just watched a great interview with Eihwar on the KZbin channel PoisonedRock TV. Without writing a book.....wow, again I was blown away. I want to add "spirit guides" and "a mirror to the essences of life", to a definition of Eihwar. In the interview, I did not see any fluff or pretention. Just two individuals that are seriously deep, grounded, fun, and open to life. Also, the concept of a human host was reintroduced to me and my mind went down the rabbit hole. If not a human host, where else in the universe am I hosting a life or existence???? Eihwar just shot up to my current favorite group in not just music, but in media as well.

[@eihwar]

Waow thanks so much brother, we are truly touched and we really appreciate when someone deeply understands our approach 🤜🏻🤛🏻 (Hope you didn’t suffer too much with our sh*tty English hahaha)

[@zardoz5004]

Your English is fine. Beyond that, you were able to communicate at multiple levels, not just with English. Seems like I was able to understand you at those levels too. 😁

Shared to my Larp viking group too, it's so awesome that our two völur want to learn it for playing it in game 😮 Just amazing, good job 🎉❤

[@DrunkenDemon]

@@bobbagshawedeorlinc4884 what about just beeing nice? I didnt really expect people to care. I just wanted to voice some Support because there were comments in this section, complaining about this looking/sounding like heilung which i found unfair because heilung didnt happen in a vaccum. There were Tons of Bands that shaped that particular Sound. Thank you, for careing enough to voice your opinion.

[@themanwithnoname9578]

Go near a lake first

[@charlesrubadue6352]

Respect to the lady with the drum. Never fiddled with one of those before but everyone I know that has tells me it ain't easy. Takes skill, good hand positioning, a lot of stamina (even without the dancing) and concentration. I understand it likely wasn't played all in one go but still, well done.

[@eihwar]

Thanks a lot !

SKAL EIHWAR THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS. I FOUND YOU GUYS BY ACCIDENT LOOKING FORWARD TO MORE. Maybe someday seeing you in concert Those that compare their music or feel the need to criticize you should really be asking yourself why you feel the need to nit pick. EIHWAR's music is wonderful and just touches the soul. Music connects us all and it is through music that most find peace in a world that is burning around us and there is nothing over 75% of the population can do about it cause everyone is struggling to just be able to survive. Spread love not hate there is enough hate in the world

[@WALKER.ENTERTAINMENT]

Hello my dear Eihwar brothers and sisters and everyone else, my origins are Norwegian, since I was born in Oslo. My close ancestors are already in Valhalla. Consulting the runic oracle. I don't know how or why you appeared on my KZbin. And in memory of my ancestors and guardian of the ancient Viking traditions, both my wife and I send you our unconditional support. Although I was only born in Oslo, but I live in Spain; As my wife and I said so much, together with our small family educated in the ancient Viking ancestral stories, we send you our unconditional support; I hope you like our videos. I don't know if anyone will read this, but I invoke the winds of the North, so that this letter reaches you all. Like this video, yours came to me, suddenly, just finishing the runic ritual. I don't know if destiny will bring me my wish, but my mind and my spirit will always live in my beloved Norway. I know that many will laugh at my beliefs, but I don't care. I know we are in this century, but I prefer to believe that my soul will always be with the ancients. A hug to everyone, from my wife Freïa and my servant Ulrïch. Skäl.
