Maria Franz is the female vocalist and she has an incredible voice. As far as the audience goes, having been at similar concerts, there are songs like this where it becomes mesmerizing and can make a person just stand there and try to absorb it. Music like this speaks to the tribal state of mind in us! To me this is performance art.

[@voiceover2191]

Maybe also because indeed it was their first performance, people didn't know them or their music and must have been quite stunned by it.

[@LordC1nder]

You nailed it, everything you said is exactly how I feel.

[@ronaldmcrae4896]

This was their first ever live concert at "Castlefest" in 2017. They are phenomenal live, saw them last year. Try one of their most recent Rituals. "Anoana" live with their updated set, beautiful!

[@exoc1]

Thats the reason the audience isn't to involved i think, they're probably all experiencing this for the first time. I got to see Heilung live in Stockholm last tour, and was surprised how many people knew every single word and sang along. It's really remarkable that their first performance was this good.

[@klausoxen6597]

HEILUNG...an absolutely unique & outstanding Music Project from Denmark, Germany, Norway & there is simply nothing comparable!

[@davidlfort]

Lifa means "Live" and is the title of the album they put out of this, their first performance. In Madijan is the name of the song

[@Pythonbird]

When they’re live they do have fire! I’m seeing them for the 2nd time April 2025 The best thing I’ve seen in a very long time 🔥

[@michaelfriedrich9417]

Wunderbar, einfach Klasse und ein Meisterwerk 👍👍

[@brianv61]

These guys live are on a whole other level... one of the most powerful live shows I've been to. I'm just waiting for their next US tour

[@thefrenchmanla]

We are lucky to live in the time of Heilung.

[@damnalien6998]

Saw them live last week with Eivor opening. Quite an experience. The audience is mostly entranced during the songs, and not reacting as much until a break. Regarding the fire comment, I did receive this before the show: 'This ritual will feature open flames, nudity, incense smoke, and Viking weapons' so you're not wrong :)

[@klausrasmussen2307]

Eivør and Heilung together is pure extasy.

[@Pythonbird]

Seen both Eivør(nearly3 times)(Manchester) and Heilung(going to be twice, soon) just out of this world, outstanding. Seeing is believing just brilliant

@@jimbob9086 forbidden??? 🙈🤦🏻‍♂️

[@papasith7766]

I just saw them at Red Rocks amphitheater in Colorado in the US. They said it was their last show in America “for the foreseeable future”. It was a full “pink” moon and it was… transcendental. It was beyond my expectations. I highly recommend BOTH the live and official videos for “Ananoa” and the Lifa at Castlefest (same show you just watched) version of the song “Krigsgaldr”. Much love, peace and as always MTFBWY! ❤️

[@maximebemer3407]

Please.... pretty please... react to their live performance of Anoana. You will be blown away again!!!

[@klausoxen6597]

Jep, absolutely!

[@lunarwolf5555]

Yeh!

[@josephbardouche3687]

YES!! Absolutely yes!!!!

[@NZWozza]

I timed a holiday around seeing Heilung headline a festival on a farm in England. They were incredible. KZbin is great, but it doesn’t convey how bone-shaking the drums are. The next day the people in the neighbouring village were asking about that noise coming over the hills (probably thought they were about to get pillaged.) They are doing two shows in New Zealand this year. Unfortunately nowhere near me, but of course I will travel to see them here. The crowd in some bits are stunned like a mullet in places, chanting in others and jumping up and down in other parts when I saw them. I was standing in awe for parts I am sure. Like you said it’s a ritual and seeing it live is something else.

[@2727rogers]

Yes Heilung call their performances rituals not concerts. Your comment there was spot on.

[@Metzwerg74]

and they don´t do it for fans, they hold their rituals for their brothers and sisters....

[@mikeconway9849]

Great reaction! Heilung is an experience.

[@dionlarsen10]

Healing me through the ritual of story/song , Heilung on repeat 🤟🏼🔉🔊❤️

[@dionlarsen10]

Onward for more Heilung to Palsdottir , Warruna , Skald etc. skål 🍻

[@Exilfranke78]

Heilung don´t play concerts... they perform rituals! If you ever have the opportunity to see one of it: just go! Even travel! Totally worth every single kilometer. Went to three rituals since 2022 and am looking forward to one later this year. The last one was in a (unfortunately modern) amphitheater here in Germany in pouring rain. Nobody cared!

[@Elezium]

I saw them perform a ritual last year, words don't do justice to just how entrancing and amazing they are live - I've been going to gigs for over 30 years and seen hundreds upon hundreds of bands, but they are by far the best I've seen. If you get the chance to see a ritual def take it!

[@Umbra_242]

It is in fact a ritual. From start to finish. See them in person if you ever can. It can change your life if you let it. Ancient lyrics and their “amplified history” is amazing.

[@petes5041]

I believe they make all their own instruments.

[@Metzwerg74]

and you are correct

[@chrishodgkinson322]

Great reaction guys. I'm finally getting to see these live this September. The night after I see Epica at the same venue!!

[@sanjuro66]

Same here. My first ever Heling concert/ritual. (Stuttgart, Germany!)

[@jwoellhof]

this performance at LIFA will forever melt our brains. her vocals are a recreation of a live single take in the recording studio while she was freestyling with her voice. this song went global with the release of Hellblade II video game.

[@cheesus309]

I think other performances of theirs that you'd really enjoy are Anoana (LIFA Lynn Dain) and Alfadhirhaiti (LIFA) - though all of their live stuff is fantastic, on a sliding scale between music and performance art.

[@ValhallaTarantulas]

They are reciting the Elder Futhark ( Runes )

[@sallahgypsy1590]

It's beyond vocals. It hits something in your soul. For being a female, myself. Something about what she is doing invokes a tear. something inside I do not understand completely. It's a call, and my soul understands, yet I do not. I understand the repeated lyrics. It is the runes. She on the other hand is not speaking a language. It is spiritual. Women are drawn to it with emotion. There are no words to describe the emotion.

[@somthingbrutal]

they are amazing and a rabbit hole dive down head first

[@LordC1nder]

This was the first song I heard. I went down the Heilung rabbit hole. I absolutely love them, I listen to them all the time.

[@Alykzandria]

The crowd wasn't moving yet because they were waiting for Maria lol

[@Jaxer316]

1 does not simply pause or talk during Maria's solo

[@SaltyPirate71]

Looking through the comments before watching the reaction to avoid wasting time. Thanks for the heads up. Won't bother watching if they are that oblivious.

[@karlc9773]

Seen them live twice just booked again, torally brilliant

[@viancapeterson423]

Heilung’s events are not concerts but rituals. I’ve had the opportunity to seen them live twice and can honestly say that after their rituals your life if forever changed. It was the most spiritual and healing experience I have ever had in my life.

[@hisshadow9525]

Heilung ❤

[@Tanashx]

Thanks for a great reaction to this amazing band. If you enjoyed this one I recommend their performance of "Othan" from the same ritual. Another great one is "Hamrer Hippyer" or "Fylgija Ear / Futhorck", also from this ritual. A third recommend is either the official music video of "Anoana" or the live version which is just mindblowing "Anoana LIVE | LIFA Llyn Dain". "Alfadhirhaiti" is also fantastic. Honestly you can't go wrong with any song as they are all just so good. the first 3 songs I mentioned have however been reacted to a bit less so those would be cool.

[@ronaldmcrae4896]

In the best of all worlds both versions of "Anoana " should be watched back to back. MV for context and then the live version which is such a great performance. Saw them live last year.

[@sanjuro66]

@@ronaldmcrae4896 Both phenomenal, and different types of vibes. Same with MAJOR goosebumps.

[@Skurian_krotesk]

I have seen them live once and it was magical af. They played right after Korn... When korn was playing, the entire crowd was one giant moshpit, you could not stand on one spot even if you tried... Then Heilung came on stage and everyone was dead scilebt in trance until all heart beats were synchronized and calibrated. And then we had an orgy. Just kidding but we might as well have, that was crazy...

[@meganhausman1443]

“It’s very dramatic.” “AaaaáäaaåäAaaAHhHhhHH!”

[@MseeBMe]

Maria: “So the throat singing impressed you huh?” Maria: /flex

[@weepat5325]

I attended Heilung's ritual in LA in December and at Red Rocks on April 23; most of the attendees stand throughout.

[@marcosmontenegro7320]

Next alfadirhaiti - heilung

[@rick65341]

I really loved your reactions!! Please react to heilung - krigsgaldr(official video)

[@97warlock]

Maria, imo is the centerpiece of the entire band imo

[@serenshadow89]

FYI - The group is Heilung .... the song is In Maidjan .... Lifa is the name of the concert and album.

[@SongsandThongs]

Thanks so much for this information. Will be updating the thumbnail and description accordingly. Much appreciated

[@serenshadow89]

@@SongsandThongs Your welcome! It can be confusing at first. I was at first too. It took watching a few of their videos to catch on to what each word was.

[@sarderim]

He: one thing that is missing, it´s fire. But obviously you can't do that on stage. Rammstein: Hold my beer!

[@1_Arii_1]

More!! please

Another great reaction Harry and Charlene. Wintersun Alex usa. 🤘

[@noraeld5020]

19:35, coincidentally they have a song reverring fire where they light things up on stage: eldansurrin!

[@chemomancer]

The chant. It's... their alphabet. The runic alphabet known as Elder Futhark.

[@hilliard1991]

Should react to the new one that have brought out that is unbelievable

[@satanictaffy]

HY-loong.

[@NemusVetus]

Heilung are really impressive. The lyrics of this song are runic inscriptions and names of runes. If you accept suggestions for reaction videos, I'd love to see you react to the Japanese metal idol groups Broken By The Scream [song title: Moonlight Lovely Stripe] and Shinshi Todoroku, Gekijou no Gotoku (aka Shingeki) [song title: Noctiluca]. The original video titles are 1. Broken By The Scream - 月光可憐ストライプ - 2. 【MV】『ノクチルカ』-神激(神使轟く、激情の如く。) Thank you!

[@earendilthemariner5546]

This song is basically an alphabet song. Fehu, Uruz, Thurisaz, Ansuz, Raido, Kenaz = FUTHARK. The runes. I dont know if its Elder or Younger though "Fehu, Uruz, Thurisaz, Ansuz, Raidho, Kenaz, Gebo, Wunjo, Hagal, Naudhiz, Isa, Jera, Eihwaz, Perthro, Algiz, Sowelu, Tiwaz, Berkano, Ehwaz, Mannaz, Laguz, Ingwaz, Dagaz, Othala"

If you want them with fire ,check out their official video to Anoana.

[@susannradal9303]

What Maria is doing is called kullning an ancient form of herd calling still used here in Norway, Sweden to with roots back to the Viking age and probably even older. And Heilung doesnt have concerts they have rituals

[@robverstegen]

Try WARDRUNA -HERTAN it blows you away for sure

[@experimentalelemental92]

Check out Heilung at game awards with Senua's Saga theme if u want fire 👍

[@Voltoth]

Heyo, greetings from the UK. Just stumbled across your channel and love it, however, a couple of notable absences in your repertoire currently. First off, Aurora. Any song by her is amazing, you really can't go wrong. Secondly, The Hu, I recommend starting with Wolf Totem and then going with anything else. Again all their songs are great. Third, Wardruna. Similar kind of vibes to this, just with more actual singing and not just primal rituals. Nothing wrong with Heilung though, I love them too. Fourth, Kalandra. Any song is great, but a good starter would be Brave New World. Gives a good idea of what the band is like and what sort of thing they're capable / most comfortable with. Also, Maria Franz, the female lead of Heilung has done some solo stuff. Ulvetime (Hour of the Wolf) is the most popular one and is really good. She has such amazing range. Also, be sure to check out SKÁLD. Very cool Icelandic / Old Norse band. Last but by no means least, we have Eivør Palsdottir (Usually just goes by Eivør) She has such a unique way of singing and can do some wild things with her breath. Anyway, that should keep you busy for a bit. Peace. xD

Harry Charlene did you ever get my suggestions for the songs I recommend to react to? I haven't gotten a reply from you yet. But it's ok I can give them to you here. First is wintersun steel of the gods legendary demos official video. It was announced that wintersun just released their legendary demos album and time 2 albums this month which steel of the gods was released by jari as a sample of what to expect from legendary demos. The next one is ensiferum rum women victory which is jari's former band before he formed wintersun. After that is wintersun legendary demos favorite riffs part 1 official video featuring only jari and several guitars as he is playing some of his favorite riffs from legendary demos. Since you are a musician Harry you will appreciate jari's guitar playing in these suggestions. So send me back a reply to let me know what you think. Thank you wintersun Alex usa 🤘❄️🫶
