Shepherds Reign - Nafanua - OFFICIAL VIDEO

[@chrisstrand7699]

I bet this band and The Hu would collaborate amazingly

[@1deadhippie]

add some bloodywood (from India)

[@SaintsCheat]

Why? Cause they are all Asian? 😂. Why not add Bollywood to the mix and make it an Asian crossover metal band 😂. You. Is. Racist

[@ArchieXIV]

yes!

[@The716_]

Could totally picture this band touring with Soulfly as well. At least in here in the states anyways. Max Cavalera is the father of tribal metal so it only makes sense.

[@Luna-ej4mi]

don't forget Alien Weaponry!

[@Warlord_Hyperion]

I’m proud to be married to a strong Samoan woman who is also the mother of my children. She’s my Nafanua. Nothing on this planet more powerful, more fearsome, or more loving than a Samoan mother.

[@bulldozer99]

And also the most beautiful, caring and loving woman ❤

[@inhouse789]

First Alien Weaponry now Shepards Reign finally we can have a rest from island reggae and get our headbanging on with island metal awesome

[@jachinmanu2593]

Islans reggae outsold always. We need a paramore like sound for pacific island bands.

[@Go_Home_British_Raj]

it's all good, but yes we want the grunty stuff 🤘

[@ki11erp0ny]

Got to see alien weaponry live right after tangaroa released. Fucking amazing!

[@4n4rkist]

the more songs I find from you guys, the more invested and in love I am with your music, your lyrics! more people like you is what this world needs

[@thecelticgiraffe]

Found this band totally by accident and they are INCREDIBLE! Should have a concert with them and The HU

[@ryanblue5627]

Excellent!!! Samoa is bringing it!! We hear you!!! 🤘🏾🤘🏾💥💥💥💥💥💥

[@Swesm2770]

We the Royal Auva'a bloodline from Falealupo Savai'i are proud to have a connection to her, she is one of the ancient deities from our village before Chrisitianity, we are proud Kings, Queens, Princes and Princesses to have an association to her. Before Malietoa existed, Samoa already had royal bloodlines, and my family is one of them, much love and respect for honoring her

HERE WE GO I AM READY!! TO FEEL THE POWER

The amount of pumped i get for shepherds reign is probably taking years off of my life but I'm absolutely here for it!

[@spiritlevelstudios]

Probably adding weeks to your life bro.

[@giuseppicamolle50]

The bad thing about this song is that has an end 🤘🏾

[@snakeintheshadow]

Don't know how I got here... but damn! I'm amazed!

[@VictorHugo-rm2ml]

The polynesian metal and the indian metal is definitely the most coolest discovery I have made in the last three years. Alien Weaponry and Shepherds Reign makes me remember the old Sepultura. Não tem jeito, os caras amassam demais!🤘

[@wilkwelesa1647]

bloodywood is nice too

[@VictorHugo-rm2ml]

@@wilkwelesa1647 No doubts. I' ve heard Bloodywood for the first time in 2019/2020, when I was scrolling posts on Facebook. It was the videoclipe Machi Bhasad. And when I heard, my mind just blowed hahahaha. Love Blodywood. 🧡🤍💚

[@plungecomics]

Saw them live in my home town two weeks ago here in NZ. They are coming to Australia. Make sure to get out and support them. Good new metal is hard to come by. And even harder to find with all the noise. So support the bands so we can keep getting some good music for the next generation so they know what real music sounds like. Bias of course, being both a Kiwi and a Pacific Islander.

[@darc9782]

When are they coming to Australia? Will definitely aim to see them.

[@rebelmetal4233]

You're not wrong...nothing better than good metal, and nothing worse than bad metal. There's a lot of bad metal out there. Shepherds Reign is great...I wish they could break through in the States.

[@plungecomics]

@@rebelmetal4233 There isn't enough of a cross over due to the non-English lyrics. As a non=English, I get wanting to promote one's culture, language etc and METAL is amazing for that. However, metalheads like to sing along with their fave bands songs and well, that might be an hinderance here for them. I listen to a lot of Metal bands from all over the world, as a fan and as a former radio DJ, so for SR, its really up to them to work out if they want to do a dual language album. Cause that may be a break through to put them over globally. They deserve to global IMO.

[@rebelmetal4233]

@@plungecomics I don't disagree...I don't like the non-English decision, but I do understand it. Like you said, I believe they eliminate a lot of listeners because of it. Rammstein was able to do it, but very few others have been able to break through. The USA market is tough.

[@austinchu4404]

Two things I love in one video: metal and fireknife! Hell yes!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@Noneyabiz001]

I love these guys! I wish I could understand what they’re saying, but, I love them none the less

[@Magnum.318]

That's cool! There is a cartoon character named Nafanya in Russia. This is a kind creature who lives in a house, who is friends with children and guards the house. He looks very much like the lead singer of this band))))

[@zwastiunburzy3688]

Strength to strength, boys! Loving this stuff! Don't understand a word of it, but I don't care!👍

[@sinatunu3368]

If I may, adding some subtitles similar to how Bloodywood does for their MVs would expand your base exponentially! Your music is amazing and it would be awesome for more people to be included in understanding the stories you’re telling. Huge fan!

[@isajmody2344]

You guys just made my day 100% better!!! This album... I think the word is ineffability is how my head feels thinking about it. It is going to be awesome!!!

[@tasilua1051]

This song is about the war Goddess Nāfanua the first Warrior of Sāmoa whos planning brought about the first peaceful era for us, the same goddess the Malietoa LIED about saying that she told him his rule is god given, she never ever said this

[@jvilz-685]

First warrior ? A’e, stop with the wrong info..Leave the story of Nafanua to the people of Falealupo where she is from.. she came to free her people of FALEALUPO not free “All of Samoa” & Malietoa & Su’a the Orator (Tulafale) did visit her, Su’a from Saipipi name then changed to Silialaei which is now the High Orator for FALEALUPO!! Malietoa sat outside Nafanuas house and as it started to rain she said “Ua susu lau susuga” That is why to this day, you refer to Malietoa as “Susuga Malietoa” (SUSUGA) which is used for low ranking chiefs and Orators not a paramount chief or a king!! Recap, She came to free her people who were enslaved by the neighbouring district!! There just too many people not from Falealupo who keep talking as if she came for the rest of Samoa ❤️👍🏻

[@jvilz-685]

And one last mention, our meeting grounds or “Malae” in Falealupo is called “Fili ma puletuu na to ai Manu” Referring to that famous visit! Chuuuur

[@juniorjojoe]

They're singing about Samoa's greatest warrior goddess Nafanua, who prophesied about the coming of Christianity to Samoa in ancient times. This is when Malietoa, the king of Samoa seek for title inheritances and power entitlements from her! She was also the first person who held 4 kingship titles who ruled Samoa in ancient times. Four joined titles called the "Tafaifa"
