Heilung | LIFA - Krigsgaldr LIVE | REACTION | First Time Hearing

[@WHORTH-TheUglyDucklingOfFORTH]

In Midjan from the same ritual (consert) is good if You want more of Maria...

[@I_scribbles]

Heilung speaks to your DNA. Maria is a representative of our great mother. When you hear her sing you hear our mother voice within our hearts. The fact that you were moved so means you heard the calling. Draw strength from this music and look within for this path leads to many things within you. Heilung mean healing but there magic goes deep!

[@dracusmoon4822]

Maria invokes the Mother every time she sings! Be well and prosper!

[@Hansvh64]

I have seen them live 4 times now. This was the first concert they ever gave It was at Castlefest in the netherlands....and I was there😊

[@kimkruse7370]

Here is side thing That Christopher and Maria the singer from Heiling have made and It's very nice I think. Songleikr "Ulvetime" .

[@jonthebeloved6094]

Seconded!

[@eddsson]

It's love. *Heilung's given me (through Krigsgaldr) is a new perspective of it. What Heilung nail (to me) is how important it is to extend it as far as possible. Yes, there's limits to that "reach" but we should all treat each other as brothers and sisters for as long as humanly possible. We all want peace and understanding. Your "enemy" included. You've got your heart in the right place, Momma. Thank you.

In Maidjan, Alfathirhaiti, Fylgia Ear, Hamrer Hippyer. These songs by Heilung are absolutely incredible. They’re all live, just search KZbin for these songs plus “LIFA”. You’ll be absolutely mesmerized.

[@destroyerkuroshiokai]

This band is amazing. Lyrically some of the deepest impactful music I've heard. The world would be a much better place if Heilung had the same coverage the top pop artists do.

[@CirTap]

you don't sound like a freak, you're spot on: lead vocalist Kai said: ""The listener is supposed to be left at ease and in a relaxed state after a magical musical journey that is at times turbulent" there's something about these Norsk / Germanic tribal tunes that's so mesmerising.

[@liamstrain]

You need to watch this full concert. It's transformative.

[@marierose8580]

so happy to see more from heilung from you so soon! edit: if you sound like a weirdo, then so do i! being the warriors and weirdos, i suppose it's no surprise, and certainly nothing to be ashamed of. this music takes me to a different place when i close my eyes too, i believe it's what it's meant to do

[@artbascomb1336]

Please keep digging in to Heilung. They’re special. Thanks for sharing this.

[@Angarato86]

if you get to chance to see them live do it. im seeing them next week. its an experience. you feel every voice in your spine, you feel the drums in your entire body. you feel the energy of the people in the crowd. its absolutely overwhelming but in a good way.

[@noraeld5020]

I love your lyrical breakdown of this song! I've never taken the time myself

[@yasminesteinbauer8565]

How about LIFA - In Maidjan LIVE?

[@tx0h]

yes, that song hits hard. i love this live version, it's from their first 'concert' by the way. but again, to get the context visualized, i suggest to see the video they made for it. an ancient 'cartoon'. thanks for your reaction.

[@n5iln]

Krigsgaldr - from the Old Norse, literally, "war magic". What Maria is singing is a lament for the loss of innocence of a village that has been attacked from outside and must go to war to defend itself. The chanted part is a warning to the invaders. Almost forgot...yes, Maria is tapping real human bones; if I'm seeing them correctly, it's a radius and an ulna (the bones of the forearm). Traveling with those in their bags have caused the band problems at more than one port of entry.

[@stevensnyder8898]

Heilung is something special. It touches you with an intensity that you don't expect, and it echoes through you on a deeper level that you may not have been aware of. Like a place, an ancient place, within you hidden behind the briars and hedges far past the boundaries of the banality of modern life.

[@TheRealMommaOG]

Yes! This is what I was trying to describe at the end. I feel like it connects me to a deeper part of me that I do not know, but know exists.

[@stevensnyder8898]

@@TheRealMommaOG ...and yes, myself and I know a lot of others get really emotionally invested in the music. When I first heard Krigsgaldr I though it was silly but the rhythm just stuck in my head, it simply moved in and claimed a part of me. You seem to be taking this journey at about the same phase of life as I am, enjoy!

[@williamharris7357]

There's one song from this concert where they look like they're in some kind of a trance on stage

[@stevenrider9632]

This whole concert tells the story of a peaceful village being corrupted by having to go to war to defend themselves.

[@slymind4919]

*still watching and snuggles momma* embrace the empth. feels are reals

[@jonthebeloved6094]

An earlier project with Maria and Chris is Euzen. I recommend the video for Phobia.

[@Mortatus67]

Heilung is a fantastic band and I love your reactions to Heilung. Since you are so touched by this music, I can also recommend “Nytt Land”. Nyttland come from Siberia and consist of a married couple and changing members. mostly as a trio, but also with up to 5 band members. Her music is atavistic, dark (compared to Heilung), and shamanistic, consisting of clear vocals, throat singing (male and female), ritualistic drumming, instruments like Tagelharpa and more. Nytt land recommendations: Ritual (Musicvideo) Nord (Musicvideo) Ragnarok (Live "Ritual" 2021) The Fires Of Ragnarok (Throat Singing Playthrough) Greetings from Germany

[@TheRealMommaOG]

Thank you! I have added these to my list. I'm definitely intrigued by your description.

[@AP-RSI]

Good choice! HEILUNG live is the best! But... If you like HEILUNG, try FAUN too!

[@georgelynch6139]

Already have our seats booked for the Stockholm ritual next year in March ❤️🇸🇪

[@anirenka]

You will also love the norwegian band Wardruna and their song " Lyfjaberg - Healing Mountain", official music video. 🙂🥰

[@cainealexander-mccord2805]

Present!

[@soleywolfgangsdottir]

you really need to watch "the symphonic viking voyage", you can learn so much about history, lifestyle and instruments of this age.

[@prutgardin666]

This is my favorite song by them ;)

[@NarinsNewAge-zz2hf]

Oh I enjoy Heilung as well. sometimes they are very intense, and i often wonder what the rituals are im absorbing haha. I still enjoy it.

[@TheRealMommaOG]

haha.. I understand this but my instincts tell me to just let it absorb. Whatever it is speaks to the very root of me.

[@slymind4919]

youre not a weirdo Momma. heilung just does that. as an adhd inflicted individual, i have tried and tried to meditate, and i have only truely reached the point of meditation once. after that, i never tried again. not due to laziness, but bc of what it showed me in my dreamstate was a bit much. so much effort to relax (lol, what an oxymoron) showed me things i was unsure about. but as i got older, i think i understand what i saw. but it took me years to figure it out. if i tried that daily, and succeeded, i'd have 7000 years worth of weird to translate and figure out lol. TLDR these are the sounds of my people, and they always put me at calm, even when harsh vocals disrupt the beautiful trancelike state. they are singing the songs of my people, as close as they can be sung.

[@Phoenixtraum]

it's all about awake your deepness in thoughts, emotions and insights. but also moving, dancing nature. you need ! a ventil to express whats going on inside of you. you are not alone greetings from Berlin ( i became an artist )

[@elissacousland44]

I'm sure you probably know by now, but this song and the album it's from details the story of a peaceful village that is dragged into a war against their will. Their songs on this album detail the darkness and trying to handle the aftermath for that village. One of my favorites from them is Traust, the live performance from Red Rock. They show a ritual in the video that is entrancing. Your reaction to them is my reaction too. It's a spiritual awakening that speaks to the memories in our blood and bones. It speaks to the memories of the land of my ancestors, a land that I have never gotten to walk, but that I can still feel echoes of. I hope they come back to the states.

I heard you talk about meditation and that you try to do it when feeling anxiety. I would recommend that you do it regularly as it helps to calm the body and soul and helps us connect to our spiritual self. Search for a guided meditation, you can even find it on youtube, do breathing exercises and practice. It will open your mind and help you heal old wounds 🙏

[@bourbonkid1022]

[@DominikHeinrici-ep4db]

Welcome to the tribe! Check out Lifa Iotungard!

[@larryc3860]

Heilung ="Healing"....the band calls their music "amplified history" which it is......using pre-Christian Norse & Germanic texts, Heilung creates rituals on stage........Krigsgaldr means "war magic"........Maria Franz is the female shaman of the rituals....btw, they make most of their costumes & instruments.....thanks for reacting !

[@DaLander]

Great reaction. Definetly watch more of them. The channel Carapateuse is reuploading some of their songs with lyrics and in-depth background information. Do recommend. Here's the one for Krigsgaldr (to the official video): kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5mkYo2FjdGDsKs

[@xenogroth]

Try: Insomnium - Godforsaken. It's a Finnish Melancholic Metal band. It might not sound appealing to you, but something tells me you'll like it. Spoiler alert: best section of the song is from the 5 minute mark and forward, so be patient : )

[@Divinerainzz]

You should check out Wardruna and Aurora-Helvegen live.

[@TheRealMommaOG]

I've done that one. It was fantastic!

[@RolfMeyer-cl7ou]

😅

[@666sdkfz]

Please do check out Wardruna !

[@caddybridge1898]

I am from Pakistan…I know that everyone attaches its own meanings to the music…but (don’t take it wrong) whenever I listen to (most of) the Western music, I get a sense of a lot of “noise” and “violence”, “blood”. On the contrary when I listen to eastern music, it sounds more soothing, serene and calm where most of the subjects revolve around love and nature. However, if you listen to Pakistani music especially from the Coke Studio (season 1 - 15) and Nescafe Basement (season 1 - 5), you will get to listen to some soulful, sufi and soothing contemporary music. But then it’s only my opinion. Perhaps, I have yet to appreciate the western music fully 🙂 For example: if you listen “Tu Jhoom” from Coke Studio, Season 14 or “Channa” by Atif Aslam, Coke Studio Season 6, etc, you will understand what I mean… 😊

[@TheRealMommaOG]

Thank you for sharing your insights. I completely understand. I encourage you not to give up on western music... there are some amazing songs and artists out there from the western world that stand out above the rest. Try Elsiane. Her album Hybrid is a good one to start with. But there are plenty of others from other albums. She's incredibly unique in her singing and the music evokes all kinds of emotions in me. She's Peruvian from Canada.

[@caddybridge1898]

@@TheRealMommaOG Thanks for the reply. First, I must appreciate your stamina to reply all the messages…it’s really a big deal. Second, don’t get me wrong (which I thought somebody would). I like Western music and sometimes I listen to it a lot. In my younger days, I used to listen to groups like Boney M, Abba, Dire Straits, Sting, U2, Bruce Springsteen, Roxette, Inxs, etc, etc and so many others. Nowadays, I like singers like Adele, etc But when I say violence, blood, noise, etc , you can well understand what I mean (if you do). The eastern music, to me, is more complex with a lot of variation and musicality. It takes years to master the “raags” and amateurs cannot do that… But at the end of the day, good music is the one which pleases your ears 🙂 and satisfies your soul

[@soleywolfgangsdottir]

is that a lampshade on the head of that one dude?? :D

[@TomicaCZ]

Check out band Nightwish. I highly recommend you song Ghost Love Score performed live at Wacken festival 2013. Your mind will be blown once again, I promise! Nightwish is an incredible band, every song is unique and they are best live.
