Heilung is an experimental folk music band made up of members from Denmark, Norway, and Germany. Their music is based on texts and runic inscriptions from Germanic peoples of the Iron Age, and Viking Age. Heilung describe their music as "amplified history from early medieval northern Europe". According to Faust, the name of the band, "Heilung", which means "healing" in German, says something about the style of the band: "The listener is supposed to be left at ease and in a relaxed state after a magical musical journey that is at times turbulent". The recordings of the band are not limited to music, but also contain poems and the spoken word. The references to the early ages of European Civilization are also made by using texts from historical artefacts or historical poems. The languages used are varied, with German, English, Gothic, Old High German, Icelandic, Latin, Old English, Proto-Norse, Proto-Germanic, and Viking age Old Norse being used.
Sorry about the sound issues everyone. If you watch it on a laptop or anything other than a phone, there should be no audio problems
I watched it on a desktop pc, dont own a phone, the audio faults damn near blew out my speakers I say this not to complain, you already apologised and i doubt it was anyone's fault,, but i say it is not something only happening to laptops and phones
To Norse magic and beliefs: Are trolls ugly looking giant creatures in Old Norse paganism before Christianity? Also is the trolls in God of War Ragnarok accurate with the trolls in Old Norse paganism before Christianity?
Got the idea. Just like not messing with Vodoun. And humility. A concept lost on too many. Great interview. Saw them 5Nov23, Denver. Stunning. The crowd was absolutely dead silent during songs. As a ritual, more than a show
I had the honour of attending a ceremony performed by Heilung in January 23rd this year in Glasgow. I have mental health issues, bad one's, one of the symptoms is NOT wanting to leave the house, NOT wanting to be around people, especially a large crowd and loud music, and self harming behaviour, but I forced myself to attend the ceremony after my partner constantly showed me your videos and music, and all I can say is that afterwards I was changed......beyond anything I thought was possible. This ceremony actually helped me heal myself through my own actions. My life has changed so much since then, going outside is no problem, I feel connected with everything around me, my depression is better, almost gone, I'm painting, doing photography, and removed toxic people and habits from my life, just happier in general. I would love to meet the entire tribe of Heilung and thank them and hug them all especially Christopher , (the heartbeat of Heilung), who I was standing about 6 feet away from during the ceremony, the drums just gripped my heart and soul and steered me onto a new path. May the God's bless you all and all people. Love and appreciation from Scotland. P.S, my partner was jumped on by one ofthe Heilung Warriors and his head was covered in black body paint from him......he didn't want to wash it off lol.
Blessings! You were ready to heal , how cool!!
Germanics should feel comfortable refering to ourselves as a current indigenous people. We are a people, we have an indigenous culture, we are alive.
Kai is such a fucking wholesome guy, can feel the energy thru the screen, awesome interview, man 🫎
Amazing! Love Kai and Heilung. It is amazing when you hear that someone like him is not just a performer but someone who lives what he does.
Been waiting for something like this. I've seen all of Kai's interviews. But nobody else asked the good questions to get him to open up about his beliefs. So glad our guy got a chance to ask him some real questions
Heilung moves the heart and inner fire BEAUTIFUL - saw them at hammersmith Apollo in london, cant wait to see them again - we are all brothers 💜🔥💜😊
we are all brothers 💙
Seeing the invitation to and from the local indigenous here in CO was stunning. So beautiful to honor one another! An amazing way to set the tone and open the ceremony.
and the sky broke and the moon came out as soon as they took the stage....What an experience
Saw them for the 1st time in Columbia SC Oct 23. I'm grateful for the blessings and guidance I received while in attendance. Peace and love brothers and sisters
"remember that we all are brothers", love from Scotland.
Saw them myself for first time in Columbia, was excellent. Will be going again.
Its very sad that the mix ist distorting. But i love the interview! There couldn't be a better duo!
Yes, I would consider improving the audio with an equalizer to remove the distortion, since this is a great interview.
This is just epic 🎉 thank you for this , this is most definitely the best interview with Kai, not that the others where bad, this was just filled with good and really good question. Love your Channel, Love Heilung Kai, Maria and Christoffer ! And we all love you 🎉 Love from Denmark ❤
Excellent interview. I love his respect for all 💯. Thank you.✌️💕🤘
❤❤❤ I saw them last year!! There are no words. Just the most beautiful experience!! There is now a before Heilung and after Heilung in my life. Definitely a different way to be in the world and it's wonderful!! A million thank yous for sharing your hearts and your works!! ❤❤❤
Aw I love your comment, I feel exactly the same way, saw them January this year in Glasgow, " before and after", what a perfect way to express what the ceremony can do. May the God's bless you and yours.
@@furiosahatton1139 Thank you! May the God's and Goddess's be with you through your hurt and healing. And may this reflection season bless your hearts and minds with new ways to move forward and be in the world!! XOXO
Just saw them in Denver on the 5th of November. Greatest show i ever seen hands down. I literally had my Kundalini move during it
The Pineal Evolve's with deep vibration
Very fortunate to had seen them in atlanta and an experience I will never forget. Love the both of you, keep on keeping on 🎉❤
Awesome!
These are the people, the music, the way to be and become. Theses beautiful shamanic sounds will never escape me. Heilung and Wardruna got me through year 1 of lockdown. I served that sentence on my own! Never again ‼️‼️‼️ Heilung, your music healed me. Thank you for your honesty and musical wisdom.
Bozhhoo, Sabé Indiginikaaz, Migizi Dodem, Annishinaabé Cree, French, and Norwegian. I'm A First Nations Person . Learning about my cultures. Heilung and Wardruna as well as others are fantastic, and I love their videos and music. Anoana and Kvit Ravn, are my favourite ones.
I got tattood by Kai in Copenhagen a few years ago. Very funny and humble guy
I’ll have to say, I’ve watched several interviews with Kai and this was by far (in my opinion) the best. Well spoken Kai. Good stuff. 👍🏻
Every time I listen to this band my energy vortexes on the top of my head, it feels like a swirly vortex going in and out and then I’m told that my energy overtakes this human container and I’m like a ball of light…. Anywhos I love this music it brings something out of me…
I can hear rhythmic drumming as Kai speaks. I know it's just audio problems, but it's kind of neat

I have never been to the Heilung rituals nor do I understand the words even but they hit deeply. I dance and drum to their music. I would love to return to Europe and visit the villages of the Viking /Norse peoples. Previously to discovering Heilung I have always been fascinated with the Runes and many ancient cultures traditions and learned a lot.Thanks Kai for sharing your experience and wisdom. Much love and respect.
Dude Every month at Full Moon Heilung is who I Dance around the house to. Thank you.!! Heilung has been my go to on a Full Moon for 5 years now. Any time I burn Mugwart and Cleanse the house I play ❤Heilung.❤ Just to bring up another Group that is thick with Culture "OTYKEN" Indigenous Siberian Music with modern beat. One is a Ritual, one is Spiritual on another level Dream Night on Full Moon would be to see Heilung, Otyken The HU Band and Eivor perform live together. Not on stage at same time. Just same event. What a night.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE Heilung Lifa Live Show! 🥰🤗💖🇨🇦
Great interview!! I thank the gods for Heilung. My friends and I are all going to their next North American tour. Their music has let me feel real emotion again after war trauma. Also my 6 year old daughter LOVES Norupo and Anowana and it is on her sleep play list. 😂
My daughter has loved norupo also since she was 6! "Daddy, play the alphabet song!"
I had a chance to see them in Milwaukee but, I have to miss it. Extremely sad about that
The 8 legs of the horse could be development stages/steps of the long road home.
Awesome interview! Thank you!
Really wanted to see their ritual in Denver, unfortunately I couldn’t make it. Hope they come to the US again next year
Någon gång måste jag se dem live
Got to see them in New Orleans awesome ritual.
So great to see them in Denver
this is amazing. Thankyou. We just saw them !
Thank you what a rich conversation
Adorable, intelligence, deeply spiritual guy ❤ thank you both for the interview!
Thank you both for the video and information ⚔️ I really like their music they are good 👊🏻
Extremely interesting to hear from Kai. Greatly appreciated this!
I absolutely adore them they are spot on
Had the honor to attend their last ritual in Denver this year. Ho my God! Such primal spiritual energy, wonderful time attending 😊.
Love it! Great interview! Love to hear an artist talk about his passion and works!
I enjoy this channel a lot.
Brilliant, I would have asked many of those questions too!
Can we appreciate thors interviewing skills! Kickass job 👊🏼
Thank you for such a good interview. Kai is such an interesting person, I adore them all.
This guy…. So much love and respect.
Heilung came to my city very recently and I was heartbroken that I was unable to make it. I hope to get another chance to see them in the future! So cool that you got to spend some time with Kai!
Ty for continuing your amazing videos my friend and ty to Kai as well I hope life is treating you both very well 😎 ✌️ ❤️
Thank you for this interview. Kai is brilliant and he inspires me to be a better person. Heilung has changed my life.
This gave me chills and got.me.stoked!!..I just got out of work in the backcountry for a week and saw this drop. Wha a treat!! Saw Heilung perform live a couple years ago at Redrocks, an amazing experience. VERY moving and inspiring. Thanks Nordic brother 🤍🙏🏼
Thank you both very much for this interview. Good questions and answers shared from the heart. The thing about rune magic and it's dangers is stuck in my head now, hope I am doing nothing wrong.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Hes right about the throat singing. Very indo euro
They came to my city and I missed them!!!!!!! 😭
Welcome to Colorado, brother! I’m an hour south in Colorado Springs. Maybe I’ll get to see you at a metal show or something. It’s cool to know you’re here. We need more great people like you!
Amazing ritual in Missouri! Was an experience I will never forget
If you’re talking about the recent one I was at that one, too 🤘😜
Your in denver now??? We flew to Denver from TX to see the show there. Saw them in Dallas last year! Was amazing! ❤❤❤ thanx for this interview! Very informative!
i took my family to observe ritual last fall it was an amazing time
Love the interview & their music! I bet it was a great atmosphere at the live performance. I would use a room condenser mic instead of a lapel mic next time, &/or allow for more headroom in the gain staging to prevent clipping. Front end compression can work as well but can be more tricky to dial in. Hail!
Heilung is awesome!
Can't believe I just stumbled onto this video. I've been searching for this very thing for so long and didn't know how to name it. I'm interested in finding good resources regarding core shamanism, especially because theres so much bs online.
The terrible and overbearing distortion when he shouts is meme worthy and I approve.
Wow thats an unexpected crossover
One day I will see Heilung live. But the point I want to agree with, in the early 90s was 1st time had my tarot read. The girl who read it was a class mate who went to the catholic grade school with. She was starting on her WICCAN path. I found Wiccan like the catholics. Our way or no way. Being near 50 50 German Norwegian Odin, Thor and the norse gods pulled but was no information to be found. I think this one of the few good things about the web. Paganism was set free from behind the gatekeepers lock. And opened up a greater knowledge base to all.
Hope the next time they come through the Tampa Bay area they do a venue that is not totally seated. No way I'm going to be able to dose and sit still 😅.
Eight-legged horse was likely Woden's dual-horse war chariot.
interesting theory ...
@@TheHeathenCoalition It's not mine and I don't remember where I read it. But it always made the most sense to me, out of all the other explanations.
Ha I listen to these people bc of tribals from India
Badass man. Great interview!
🐺
I took my girlfriend and my service dog, Lady Freyja, to see them in Clearwater. It is breathtaking.
Have you ever checked out Agnostic Informant's channel? He mentioned Odin in one of his videos. He discusses a lot of ancient religions and compares their similarities.
Will there be chains and rings on your website again? from your viewer from the Netherlands
Hey I just realized that you never made a video about the Vanir, except for Freyr I guess? Why we hear so much about the Æsir and not so much about the Vanir? Perhaps is just because we do not have so many written sources about them. Anyway, I would love to see your insights about this subject and would be great if you could make some videos about it.
Am i crazy or did i see the flower of Perun on the belt that Kai has in his shop?
You are not crazy, I see Perun's flower too, but in the description is wrote that it is Merovingian (the first dynasty of Germanic Francs) symbol, but we all Europeans are connects to each other, so it is not uncommon for certain symbols to be shared across cultures (even not only within Europe but also between continents).
@@ctiradperunovic I dont know much about my ancestral beliefs and symbols but i know Perun's flower when i see it :D
Wait, is Kai wearing trousers in Polish wz.93 'Pantera' camo, or I've simply gone blind?
Where can we learn more on the core shamanism that Kai is speaking of?
Look up a book called, "The Urban Shaman". Its based on Hawaiian Shamanism but it has a lot of really good practical things you can apply to your daily life. I am about halfway through reading it and have been impressed so far.
"The way of the Shaman" by Michael Harner is another good source. Kai as far as I know has also done training with Sandra Ingerman as well in Core Shamanism
great Video, but please, please change your recording settings or get a new Microphone
I really wish they would come to Kentucky. They're not all hillbillies here. Well... I'm a Texan. So yeah they are. 😂
My name is Kai too buts mines Hawaiian.
@2:30 i think he means Native Americans? First Nations tegers to Canada
Wish I could have listened. But so scratchy couldn't go ok on
Am i the only one having audio issues ?
Is that Kai's heart bounding?
Money first looks like
The God's wait for our return! Remember everyone! The God's for the most part dont care how we worship and keep them, they just care that we do. Every prayer, every blot, every sacrifice is worthy. The christians were very throurough in their destruction of the Old Way. But they didn't destroy the foundation. We can rebuild it from the ground up.
The one thing I still dont get as a Pagan Metalhead who is 120kg natural deadlifting 300+kg is WHY ARE THEY NOT TRAINING. How can people call themselves Pagan if they live the physical weak life of a modern degenerate. Eat meat, grow muscles and learn to fight, Paganism is THE best motivation anyone can have. You dont want to be the weakest man of ALL of your ancestors, they will laugh at all the 30cm arm guys in Walhall who have succumbed to modern physical degeneration
They hike in nature a lot, that's more useful than being heavy and ripped. Kai did some fasting too. Humans in the ancient past eat sparingly and modern body building where you target areas and look at a mirror wasn't a thing. People did hard work, endurance and agility helped survival more than being buff and not flexible.
I did a 3 mile rucksack march the other night with a 50lb pack to keep in shape to bow hunt elk at 12,000 ft this fall. I go out at night on this path behind my house and often listen to Heilung. One time the moon was huge cresting over the horizon and It was this crazy spiritual experience. Just being out in the cold dark with a heavy ass pack cranking over a hill watching the same moon my ancestors saw rise into the sky. Sad to think I was out there alone while everyone else was inside wasting away their soul to their TVs.
Restock the store bro sold out is unacceptable
He already misunderstands history early on. The Celtic people aren't any more indigenous to Europe than Germanic people, and they aren't different by blood. Both descend from the Rhineland Bell Beakers of about 2500 BC. There's a weird mythologising when it comes to Celts as if they were fairies living in the trees for millions of years before anyone else turned up
Are you saying that Europeans aren't indigenous to anywhere?
@@gcanaday1 if you think that's what I said you can't read very well
If You are reffering to 5:17 , there might be a reason why he uses the air quotes gesture when saying that, don't You think?
i hope for you to some day care about our ears, that microphone destroyed my ears
Yes spirituality and capitalism merchandise tells a lot about these people, really disappointing. Like touring the whole Europe didn't give you enough money. I was expecting more content.
I love heilung. Can’t believe you interviewed them. Good shit
Damn, just saw them in Greensboro
All his life he studies this belief to just end up believing in rune magic? Worst part about tv shows making our beliefs popular is the wave of freaks that cling to it and make it a mockery. Seems like great man though. Nailed everything else to my mind. I’ll have to watch more interviews. Thank you
