After a successful venture into an acoustic soundscape Gåte now return to the full-blown folk-rock they are known for. The return to their full-scale soundscape is marked with no less than two brand new songs:
Svarteboka is one of the two brand new songs that marks Gåte’s return to the full-blown folk-rock they are known for. On Svarteboka, Gåte are joined by their labelmates Djerv and the result is an epic meeting between Norway's two most iconic female metal and rock vocalists - Gunnhild Sundli and Agnete Kjølsrud.
Together, they have created nothing less than a monumental song where two of the true vanguards of the scene are given free space to challenge each other.
This is only the beginning!

Tekst av Nora Eklo Sundli og Agnete Kjølsrud: Eit rop i frå hel Mørket det batt Forbanne di sjel Be nåde for dei som blir att Les ikkje i Fanden sitt ord Da fer han fri Du fer til trolldom si jord Med makt til å rå og skade ei verd Ord som kan slå Men ikkje før du tek i ferd Vil du så fred Halde fram dyd Fanden sitt kvad Gjer deg sin skjendige fryd Mørkt vil det bli Vondemakt strir til du i mot berget rir Ref Kva enn du vil Dreg du i frå Kva enn du får att Er det mørkt omkring Svart som evig natt Ref A Men du dreg i frå, fordi eg har orda. Eg kan gje deg alt du vil, når mørket blir til. Men stemmen den brast. Auge som såg uskuld som brann Får ikkje gå Fredfulle livet det svann Det vonde satt fri Du har nytt kall Født for å stri Berget kan bøte ditt fall Ein frykteleg makt I sjelelaus drakt I bergveggen fast all si tid Bru: Forbanne di sjel. Evig fortapt. Ref Kva enn du vil Dreg du i frå Kva enn du får att Er det mørkt omkring Svart som evig natt Ref A Eg kan gje deg alt du vil. Eg kan gje deg evig liv. Men du dreg i frå, fordi eg har orda. Eg kan gje deg alt du vil, når mørket blir til. Men stemmen den brast. Evig fortapt.
I love you Gåte, you’re my favourite artist, good luck on eurovision, you’re really to good to be there!!!!

What an amazing band!!!! Thank you Eurovision!!!!❤❤❤❤
Thanks eurovision. Fantastic music. Love it. Greetins from Portugal
Талантище! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇
Як гарно. Магія якась ❤
My favorite kind of music 🎶 There’s great drama
Agnete and Gunnhild - you have created a Masterpice 🤩 Fantastick!!
From Spain....You have created a work of art. What a discovery!
Same :) I'm from the Canary Islands
I just recently watched the performance of Ulveham and I was instantly hooked on your music! I can't listen to this song without getting chills, every single time!!! So insanely good. Love from Sweden ❤
..So insanely good...
i am obsessed with this band !
Ihr habt einen neuen Fan gewonnen dank dem Esc für mich hättet ihr gewinnen müssen nicht der Schweizer danke esc gåte ist super band. Habe 4 mal angerufen weiss nicht ob es dann die 4 Punkte waren die ihr bekommen habt ❤❤❤
Absolutely love your art!
2024 ESC Winner are these Guys !! You are AmaZing...🤗♥💕🤘🏻
i cant help but have this on repeat everyday, it brings me chills every single time and agnete's screaming...just otherwordly
Fy flate, dette er helt rått❣️❣️❣️ Må ærlig innrømme at jeg hadde ikke hørt om Gåte før de vant Melodi Grand Prix, men NÅ er jeg helt betatt av gruppen og musikken de representerer 👏🤗Gleder meg til å lære Gåte bedre å kjenne 🎵😁❣️
Anbefaler å finne Lydverket sitt opptak av Gåte fra Storåsfestivalen 2005 på NRK TV.
Jeg hørte på Gåte for over 20 år siden men så ble de borte, ble mildt sagt overrasket da de dukket opp i MGP, hadde ikke fått med meg at de startet opp igjen i 2017.
Gåte ligger på 9 plass på my Eurovision scoreboard. Fint om flere er med å støtter dem ved å gi dem poeng 😊👍
Greetings from the US! Awesome song, amazing voice. New fan 🤘🏻
This is so amazing, the stunning powerful vocals from both, the sound effects mix and ORGASMIC powerful sound! And the mood of desperation and despair and probably love as far as I understood. I have no words, this is beyond beautiful folk/hard rock!!!!! I have no words... NONE.
Wow, just incredible! So powerful, hypnotic. Great performance, the voices are stunning! Nothing less than a Masterpiece!
Super piosenka I super wykonanie
Prawda !
Wow so beautiful!
I´m here after eurovision song
I love you Gate!!! Wellcome to win the ESC!!!
This one grows on me and sticks. I love the underlying darkness and the way it is expressed in this piece of art. Thanks!
It’s really astonishing that 22 years have passed since I heard for the first time Bendik og Årolilja… I want Agnete Kjølsrud in every song by every band ever, by the way ❤
Please come to Brazil. Wonderful song! Love the vocals and everything!
Even though I don't understand the language, I feel exactly what this song is about. So incredibly powerful and such excellent performances both in vocal performance and in the acting as well. No person was more perfect for the antagonist in this piece than Agnete. I've never listened to a piece of music like this and thought that I'm actually hearing the artists truly reaching their pinnacle the way this song feels. Absolute masterpiece.
How do you get the subtitles
art ❤
I don't know the language but agnetes and gunnhilds voice together is just beautiful. Awesome song . ❤
Gives me goosebumps!🤩
I really love that Agnete is representing the devil. When I grew up, the ultimate terror was Villvetter from Ronja Røverdatter. Agnete summons those feelings with her voice.
You guys are amazing
I watched your presentation on Eurovision and I love it! Love from Brazil!
Какое невероятное сочетание музыки и глубоких голосов которые проникают глубоко в душу, фантастика!
Wait, what?!? One of my favorite bands featuring one of my favorite vocalists?!? I never expected this to happen, but I want more, now that this is a reality!
Agnete Agnete Agnete!!! 🖤
Agreed! 🖤
English translation of the lyrics: A shout from hell Darkness it bound Curse your soul Ask mercy for those who remain Do not read The devil's word Then he goes free You go to the land of sorcery With power to rule And damage a world Words that can beat But not before you begin Do you wish to sow peace Cultivate virtue The devil's poetry Gives you its shameful joy Dark it'll be Evil power fights Until you to the mountain ride Ref (Gunnhild) Whatever you want You withhold Whatever remains It is dark all around Black as eternal night Ref (Agnete) But you withhold, because I have the words I can give you whatever you want, when darkness comes But the voice broke Eyes that saw Innocence that burned Can not be The peaceful life ended The evil set free You have a new calling Born to fight The mountain can absolve your fall A terrible power In soulless guise Forever stuck in the rock walls Bridge (Agnete) Curse your soul! Forever lost! Ref (Gunnhild) Whatever you want You withhold Whatever remains It is dark all around Black as eternal night Ref (Agnete) I can give you whatever you want, I can give you eternal life But you withhold, because I have the words I can give you whatever you want, when darkness comes But the voice broke. Forever lost. (Note: I speak a very different dialect of Norwegian, so please allow for some discrepancy!)
Synes du har gjort en god jobb jeg 👍Jeg lurer litt på om de mener Hel, som i nordisk mytologi, eller Hell, som i helvete på engelsk. To vidt forskjellige ting. Teksten tyder jo veldig på at det er Hell og fanden sjæl. Hel var riktignok et stusselig sted for de døde, men hadde ingen djevel og var ikke ment for å straffe. Kanskje @Gatemusic kan svare på dette? Uansett en fantastisk låt som fortjener mye mer oppmerksomhet.
My attempt at an English translation for those who wants it. I'm sure it's not perfect, and there could be errors, but I tried my best: A call from hell The darkness binds Curse your soul Pray mercy for the ones that remain Do not read in the devils words Then he will be set free and you fare to the realm of sorcery With power to rule and harm a world Words that can damage But not until you take on the path Do you want to sow peace? Uphold good virtues? The devils poetry gives you its shameful pleasure Dark it will be Evil powers strides until you towards the mountain rides Whatever you want You leave behind (But you leave it behind, because I have the words) Whatever you get in return it is dark around you (I can give you everything you want, when the darkness arise But the voice broke..) Dark as eternal night. Eyes that saw Innocence that burned Can not leave The peaceful life disappeared The evil set free You have a new call Born to stride The mountain can easen your fall A frightful power In a soulless suit Trapped eternally inside the mountain (Curse your soul. Forever lost.) Whatever you want (I can give you everything you want. I can give you eternal life) You leave behind (But you leave it behind, because I have the words) Whatever you get in return it is dark around you (I can give you everything you want, when the darkness arise but the voice broke..) Dark as eternal night (Forever lost)
Love and Blessings from Puerto Rico! I'm literally speechless. I've said it a million times, once you bring Agnete into any at all, that piece of work instantly transcends into something otherworldly and you become entranced by it. Emotionally moved. Beautiful song from EVERYONE involved. Absolutely amazing. This live with an orchestra... Just take my money. ☺️🤘🏾🔥🤘🏾❤️🙏🏾
Så sinnsykt bra låt!!! 🤘🏻 Håper å se en gjesteopptreden av Agnete på Rockefeller 22. mars. ❤️🤘🏻
Å jeg må legge til, Gunnhild er fryktelig fryktelig søt, jeg liker hu 🤗😊
Aww amazing band ❤️❤️❤️😍 pls more songs
Mesterverk!!!!!
Dette er en veldig sterk tekst, fremført av to fantastiske stemmer og med kunnskap om instrumenter på et utrolig nivå!
I definitely want more of these vocal duets. This is transcendent. Long time i didn't get that much emotion and power at the same time in a song. Sincerely, thank you for this piece of art.
Agnete é uma das vozes mais impressionantes desse planeta !
Love it! Knallbra sang 🤩😍
OUTSTANDING
Denne er SÅ RÅÅÅÅ
Bare bra, denne sangen er Immence... 16 points ? Lol, bare piss 😝😂 VI vet ALLE hvem som vant.. ;)
yasss
Goosebumps everytime i listen to this masterpiece, such an amazing vocal performance.
Denne sangen er faktisk så vanvittig bra at dette samarbeidet fortjener et ALBUM!
Wow.... 😱 denne traff meg langt inn i sjela. For en mørk og kraftfull tekst, og for en fantastisk harmoni og vanvittig flott musikk. Elsker den ❤
Dette samarbeidet var en maktdemonstrasjon 🤘🎼 Fantastisk rått! Mørk og trollbindende🖤🎼
It's the new dawn of opera metal & thanks for sharing
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Klarer ikke å slutte å høre på denne!!! Av alt det fantastiske dere har laget opp igjennom, må dette være det mest kraftfulle og magiske
samme her, sangen har gått i nesten 3 timer strait nå. ;)
the song took me somewhere else thank you for this masterpiece
Agora fazueli
That’s spectacular!!
hauntingly beautiful song!! Always feels good to hear Agnete
This is absolutely amazing, feels like the devil and angel on one's shoulder
Helt nydelig✨️ Funker sykt bra sammen!🤘
Very nice
hilsen fra schlessien.
Fantastisk opptreden av disse rå damene!
So great, so dark, so strong music. You make me dream your country, your land.
Don't know if you understand English at all, but this is the first song in a different language that I really like. Powerful vocals. Amazing music video. Congrats. Much love to you and Djerv (Agnete). 💙
what L.I. Said, Norwegian school children start learning english when they are 6 years old... and in some cases 5 years :D They start with around 5 minutes a day, like sun, star, cloud, the days... and progress from there. source: witnessing the modern schools and actually living it :D
If you liked this song, check out Gåte's entire discography! They are my favourite folk rock band and Gunnhild has IMO one of the best and most powerful voices in this genre. I've been a fan of their music since 2004. Another female-fronted Norwegian folk-influenced band singing in Norwegian (they are a bit more metal than rock) which you might like are Bergtatt. I'd recommend to start with their song "Huldra" (it's not the same song as Gåte's "Huldra"). Finally, I'd say that the Swedish folk rock band Garmarna (they started in the first half of the nineties) are also worth a try, if you like a mixture or Nordic folk and rock.
@@WyrdHag sorry if I was offensive in the comment, didn't mean to be at all.
@@MissLoonasSpeech Don't forget the Norwegian band Folque which paved the way for all of them. Also, while they leaned much heavier into the folk than the rock element I want to give a shout out to Tiriltunga, another early band in this space, who had their time and renown cut short by the death of one of their members.
@@CrimsonRose18 You weren't being offensive, you simply didn't know. That person was being rather rude by talking down to you.
Dette er så vanvittig bra, jeg har mangel på ord som kan beskrive følelsen dette gir på en verdig måte.
just saw you in Oslo last night and fall even deeper in love! what an insane performance of an unbelievable song
Djerv is the evil stepmother in ‘Ulveham’ … 😅
? ahh, ok. ohh makes me think here. Gets goosebumps actually.. Where is this coming from ? This story?
Perfeksjon!!
Beautiful! Love from Germany
Power voices and melodies, i wanna travel to the whole world an meet this peoplee
Helt rå låt! Kreds til Florian og Katrine fra Kalandra for herlig vokalproduksjon! 🖤
Ja virkelig!
Har ikke ord på hvor mye jeg elsker denne låta. Agnete skinner i denne baladen. Helt enormt lydbilde. Gåsehud HVER gang!!!!
Gåtehud, tilogmed ,kanskje
@@tosvus ayyy
Omg omg omg!! De to beste vokalistene møtes endelig!! Dette er Faenmegtastisk!!!!
Dette lover godt! Christian Linke Jobber vel for tiden med lydsporet til sesong 2 av Arcane... Er vel kanskje optimistisk å tro dette har en sammenheng, men det hadde vært stas å møte på Gunnhild og Agnete i det lydsporet om et års tid!
WWOOOWWWW THAT VOICES
Божественно!!
Fantastisk! 🤩🤩
Forslag til neste gjesteartist: Myrkur.
Denne hybriden er det beste man kan få
Ja, ja! Mer av dette vær så snill! ❤
Helt fantastisk bra!!!
Я ещё ни разу столько раз подряд не переслушивал песню
Awesome!
Лучшие, обожаю!!!❤❤❤❤
Gåsehud!!! Dette var MEKTIG! 🤩
Noe av det kuleste jeg har hørt. Nydelig kombo!
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOO AGNETEEEEEE
Fantastic song and performance! Greetings from Brazil! Looking forward to seeing you guys play around these parts 👏👏👏
Elsker dere alle
Asså - bare en ting å si. Totalt magisk, som vi pleier å si 🥰
Beyond incredible
Helt rått! 🖤🖤🖤
Holy brunsaus! Dette lukter piggtråd & gnistfåkk❤
Love it so much, Tusen Takk for this beautiful song!!!🤍
Great live performance of this song and an overall fantastic concert at Rockefeller last Saturday! John Stenersen from Bergtatt also fit in perfectly IMO. I would like to see you live in Germany again - it's now been 18 years since your so far only tour -, preferably together with Bergtatt, though this will most likely remain wishful thinking.
