Eluveitie - Jezaig

[@labinojha]

here because Spotify had the re-release version only. This one is so much better.

[@BaggyMcPiper]

I really wish they still made songs like this...

[@reudiger8510]

+Inkshooter they will release a album with songs like that song this year.

[@devilsbride6799]

after 10 years of your comments. i wish they would still made songs like this :(

[@H0pFr0g]

The melody is from "jesaig", by breton musician Gilles Le Bigot, composed in the late 70's. He played among other things in a band called Barzaz. You can find Jezaig/Jesaig on his other band Galorn self title album from 1978

From 2022

[@IllisarArchives]

The Celts is the collective term for the people inhabiting (what we now know as) Ireland, Great-Britain, the northern edge of Spain, France, bits of Belgium; basically western and cental-eastern Europe, from about 800 BC till the fall of the Roman Empire in 476. The Romans called the Celts living in present-day France "Galli", and we derived the word "Gauls" from that. In other words, all Gauls were Celts, but only the (continentally) westernmost Celts were Gauls. Hope that clears it up a bit!

[@Ivan92pk]

this would be shame that someone dislike....there is no word to describe this song....

[@shakirfarhan1416]

Wow, It’s awesome. Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩

[@skytalonx]

There were some helmets with horns on them but they were never used in battle, only for ceremonial purposes

[@legar013]

The best folk metal band ever made in history!!! ♥♥

[@PsychoSteeIIord]

The truth is never "out-dated". It is always the truth; no matter how much you may wish it to be otherwise.

[@camilo12ish]

I want this song in my funeral, please.

[@Scourgefang6]

exactly my first thought when i hear this

[@YT-ho2hl]

Did it played ? You dead dude?

[@SkullPunisher446]

This sonds so nordic, like a chill comes in me and I am really in one of those cold zones... but Im in Romania :(

[@fr0zenviking468]

te inteleg perfect .. :(

[@SkullPunisher446]

toti vrem sa fim in Norvegia...

[@datotinnaris7468]

SkullPunisher446 *celtic

[@liviu1266]

Zici tu asta, pana iti degereaza un deget

[@SkullPunisher446]

Mie imi place frigu nu stiu cum sa-ti zic :D

[@CzechNerd]

I love how ppl here are arguing about artwork for a fantasy game (Guild Wars 2), like it is a historical picture of sorts. There's even nothing in the description. And those guys on the picture aren't even humans....jeeez. Awesoem song.

[@Thordermans]

There are re-releasing Spirit and re-recording Ven, releasing it as "The Early Years." It will be out August 17th, check their website for more details.

[@TheMadbadger19]

I didn't know these artists. Thank you very much, they are awesome.

[@MKMEAN]

Mi Na Samhna by Lunasa

[@Animetal1]

This song has great melody.

[@Envythedamned]

My lady told me when she hears this it is nothing but my image haunting her with such beauty

[@zaidimran2026]

one of best instrumental music...i heard

[@codecanna]

Sniff sniff....It..Its so beautiful!!! Amazing band.

[@tawshiktanvir3418]

this one is outstanding !!! what a piece ...

[@tinaadams3613]

fight in a boss battle with this song playing (volume. turned all the way up) your welcome ;)

[@iDied137]

Best Vikings outfit i have seen so far...its awesome.

[@Courroux29]

That's actually a Norn from Guild Wars Eye of the North, good sir.

[@Lesson69PAC]

what's the name of the instrument that's first played in the start of the song? A low whistle?

[@ossaoskakso]

Sad truth is that you read and write comments instead of listening to this amazing song...

[@007zezima]

beard of epicness! also, discovered eluveitie not so long ago.... OMFG, FOLK METAL

[@acirolf.2]

So pure. So peaceful ❤

[@Mystubishi]

because of this picture, everybody just dont care anymore about the song.

[@karelsson]

great tune. Based on traditional Breton jam. The first primal scream and jump into the distorted guitars reminds me of the Gods awakening from a slumber and rising to take their place in a new world.

[@zXxDiabolicXxz]

just cant get enough of this song!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@DestroyerOfSense000]

Yeah. There's this movie called "Vercingetorix" that I'm sure the members of Eluveitie would hate just as much as I do. It is about the Gaulish rebel that defied Caesar. The "Gauls" in that movie have horned helmets. For one, they were Celts, not Vikings. And Vikings didn't even wear them! I actually caught one of the "warriors" wearing jeans. Please check it out if you don't believe me.

[@Lafontainekid]

I am a proud to be of viking blood. I am a hulk of a man, I do believe I would make my ancestors proud!

[@MKMEAN]

the melody at the start is taken from Mi Na Samhna by Lunasa 1998

[@ataergan1566]

holly cow

[@CrowGigantor48]

@llvllrmorgan I believe it's called the Shire, not squire.

[@Erikturbulens]

This is what the Norse Gods listen to when going to a battle.

[@gonzo1the1first]

i wish some day i will be lucking like this kickass above

[@nono21celtic]

you are quite right is that most of the time they are peddled prejudice and strengthens through the TV

[@Tuskoby]

I'm a WOW Player and I Raid Cities while listening to this song!!

[@thesabledone9629]

Im in love with this band already!!! But i only just started listening to them today, could someone tell me how i would pronounce the band name XD

[@CaBron4664]

Oh my god , wonderful .

[@Dabutormu]

You are not alone, brother.

[@MAJORp121]

I saw the armor and thought... FUS RO DAH!! Yeah i went there...lol

[@lordskyller]

This picture MUST be my new wallpaper...

[@Lesson69PAC]

@cilibinarii where can I listen to the origional folk version?

[@denWemzel]

In true Viking usually wore helmets with nose guard, and usually with protection around the eyes. But it is true that the Vikings animal furs, like a wolf, as capes used

[@georgefrederikgregersen774]

esses sons me remétem á épocas épicas de batalhas ferrênhas ´,lembro-me de meus ancestrais,os quais só me recórdo em meus sonhos e pesadelos.campos de matança e flagélo mortal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@fiedelmina]

it's what they'll release on the 17th of august :-)

[@Lesson69PAC]

@GenghisKhan22 what song do they talk about the giants in?

[@CelticHelvetii]

How may i ask? Chrigel said it was about the character Orgetorix which was a helvetic warrior from Caesar's the "Gallic Wars" and became a Usurper and was put to trial and then committed suicide....how does a Helvetic warrior have anything to do with Norse mythology???

[@brotbrowt9959]

relax both and enjoy the music :) NOW

[@TheMavericksqt]

god damn, this is amazing, GODLIKE

[@Valkzo]

Absolutley beautiful.

[@Thefrabur91]

Epic Picture^^ look like a jarl from the book "The Trolls"

[@MsMe1995]

When I become a smith, then I'm going to make that armor!

[@DestroyerOfSense000]

Their helmets still looked awesome though. And they were as ruthless as demons. One Viking was known as the Child-lover because he refused to throw captured babies up in the air and catch them on the point of his sword.

[@mytravelguide3028]

This cant be true .. So F amazing hard,heavy,doom,folkish!

[@arksylasaushirel5817]

Well, I came here for only 1 and 1 unique thing, to listen to this music, so, let me enjoy it without historical comments or so :)

[@mhatkins]

The Celts and Vikings in unison. Massive roar! Naked blue Picts and Celts in unison with the Vikings and Gaulish Hoarde!

[@DonKhatib]

LOVE YOU PATRICK KISTLER... I CAN FEEL THE FEELINGS WITH YOU... :)

[@fabricecharlet2280]

moi leurs oncle qui ne peut ...avoir d'enfant...Merci petit Frère

[@b0ondockz]

Cool picture.

[@NerQu]

I'd like you to show some back up findings (excavations, period woodcarvings, etchings or else) Don't give me vendel matrix There are excavations of vendel helmets and there is no way you can attach horns to to them. (Find Vendel helmet excavation) Since I think you're talking about this one. I've not found anything else that would match. Also the picture here I think is Skyrim or Guild Wars 2 concept art.

[@lekkiblack]

I like this song!

[@yssa456]

stupendooo Eluveitie sono dei grandi =)

[@Nythim]

nor did they ever use duel bladed axes (or even in the size on 2 handers). They folk lore inspires and creates the beauty that is know today as a Viking.

[@JakubNaceradsky]

Nice picture...

[@Wo0dGlue]

He says that a few say the picture in the video is accurate to history. A few others say it is related to fantasy Media. I'm clueless, other than it is not really an historically accurate representation of Scandinavians in the Dark Era(if it even is).

[@AlphaDrac0nis]

@WinterMisanthropy Valkyries are the angels who takes the brave fallen warriors away to thors hall wallhalla where they can celebrate 4ever and Vrykuls are based on the icegiants form jotunheim

[@RhewBleiddiad]

Well Britonic and Gaelic are connected languages due to the Celtic roots they have nowdays Britonic are spoken in Wales

[@Timandlisa123]

The best.

[@eldy112]

I like how everyone here is a historian specialized to ancient Northern-Europe, having an argument incited by the perfunctory historical features of an obviously stylized artwork, the reasoning dimmed by your "metalhead-childish" aversion to christianity repels the objectivity which is of utmost importance if you intend to be validly knowledgeable in the events of the past.

[@IllisarArchives]

I really hope "Helvetios" contains songs as atmospheric and experimental as this...

[@NerQu]

Type this in google "celtic horned helmet" and click British Museum - Horned Helmet. But you're right this is a Guild Wars concept art (I reckon)

[@ArravTwitch]

No, this picture was drawn far before Skyrim was released.

[@DestroyerOfSense000]

@Plasticksprengstoff :D Yes, let us die with a defiant roar on our lips and with enemies at our feet!

[@gonzo1the1first]

i wish some day i will look like this viking kickass above

[@alarmbot123]

I love the song so much that the music come through my mouth and I vomit twice.

[@ArravTwitch]

Back in the days, the weak monks of the "Great" Britain, which was some of the only ones that could write back in that time (Monks). Wrote books about the Viking raids. The Vikings killed in cold blood, for Odin and for treasure. The Monks saw them as demons, there for they draw them as demons with horns from the North. That's how the Vikings had horns on their horns. But the Vikings at that time used horns for cosmetic. So who knows, maybe some had horns on their helmets? ;)

[@Turcocenos]

I know what i'm speaking i do gaulish reenacting, they are no Horned Helmet. The Horned Helmet what you're speaking is the Waterloo Bridge and is totaly in bronze, and it wasn't a helmet for battle ;)

[@claudichameleon]

perfect! sings to my nordic soul!.... *')

[@evolooshion]

@earlemin Why? I think the new album kicks ass

[@dany-xc8jc]

real gaullish metal. This is the sound of my ancestor !!!

[@MAJORp121]

The armor makes me think of... FUS RO DAH! yeah I went there... lol

[@legar013]

but eluveitie is ELUVEITIE!!!....And they have a badass bagpipe to keep the spirit goin on! :D

[@evolooshion]

@cilibinarii The screams and guitars make it

[@skodatigris]

How awesome would be a Ven re-record?

[@Grimstringer]

Actually viking warriors never wore helmets with horns. This is a ceremional thing. but it's so cool :D

[@DestroyerOfSense000]

I always imagine a group of Caledonians praying to Teutatis when I listen to this

[@SentineloftheMoon]

some also never wore the horns simply because others would know they were stronger and in course they would get less challengers in the battlefield.

[@97bassismylife]

love the irish whistle

[@fabricecharlet2280]

je suis l'oncle de faeghen et torsten pour moi cette sik résume bien pourquoi je vie pour eux

[@ShehrinHossain]

Can anyone tell me what/who Jezaig is? I think the word is a derivation of the word Druid in some other language?

[@penguinwithahat800]

it's awesome :D

[@Lesson69PAC]

Is this originally Norse or Celtic?

[@farandhita]

greatt song

[@TheLegioXII]

What? I am sure they did, but I was simply showing that this is Viking (the art) in the sense that Norns are Norse. Not just guild wars 2 fan art.

[@Lekairo]

yes

[@TheodoraRon]

I suggest you doing a tribute to Evocation:)

[@dogwithamug]

@Alecles Luca chi?

[@koroaray]

the warrior is perfect for make a good drawing.
