King of Asgard - "Einharjar" Metal Blade Records

[heavymetla666]

To Odin, I go.

[OdiusRex1947]

Music for hunting Christians \m/ hail Odin \m/

[kingofasgardsweden]

@OdiusRex1947 Right on spot! could'nt have said it better! Thanks /KoA

[ZetaN7]

Put a boonie cover on the lead singer and you got Captain Price. Who's codename is Black Viking.

[fin38]

What does Einharjar mean? SOMETHING BRUTAL NO DOUBT!!!!!

[ANALKL0DA]

@fin38 Einharjars is the warriors who died in battle and was brought to valhalla by odens valkyries

[fin38]

@ANALKL0DA Awesome! thank you for that!

[timmytapeworm13]

1:15 pure epicness.

[timmytapeworm13]

dude needs to grow his hair out, still badass though

[Regiald]

@timmytapeworm13

Exactly what I thought! Long hair and this music kinda belongs together!

[Himotary]

@timmytapeworm13 Why would he?

[StaggnGuvnor]

reminds me of swedish meal time...

[EldScrollsIVfanatic]

2:22 to 2:51 has got to be the most brutal thing I have ever heard.

It just instills a feeling of pure viking rage in you.

[ILUVPIEALOTZ]

I like how at 0:16 he's just angrily staring at the microphone, as though he's questioning it's existence XD

[ZetaN7]

Listen to this while playing WoW. Kicks some ass.

[VeryMediocre]

Real music!

[jamesrocks4eva]

EINHARJAR!

[kingofasgardsweden]

KoA enter Sonic Train Studios in March!

The writing process is in its finishing stages even though there is more to be done and more to be polished. The recording will once again be held at the Sonic Train Studios with engineer Andy LaRocque....

Check out the news at our homepage or Facebook.

[SonOfABoozer]

The vocalist kind of looks like the guy from epic meal time

[Specicide]

I assume nobody in the below comments have ever heard of the band "Mithotyn"? This drummer and singer/guitarist were once a part of it. Also, this drummer also drums for "Falconer", whose guitar player was also in Mithotyn.

[2QsharkQ2]

@Specicide Is that so?? :O I very well know about Falconer, it was one my early discoveries in power metal :D Also heard a lot of Mithotyn!

[Eamenic1]

Hmmm yes I do like this. Like!

[thedeathleagion]

It's a good band but they don't deserve the name "King of Asgard"

[KelevMiara]

so fucking metal!!

[Nuevametal]

awesome song King Of Asgard (Viking Black Metal) nuevametal.blogspot.com/2011/1­2/king-of-asgard.html vía @nuevametal #nuevametal

[Mikbuscus]

how does this not have trillions of hits by now?

[DirtyFreaks]

@Mikbuscus Maybe we should be glad we're the only ones knowing this.

[Mikbuscus]

@DirtyFreaks agreed

[alastairmctavish]

Reminds me of Amon Amarth if they sucked and werent awesome

[Nichlas93]

@alastairmctavish except the part where Amon Amarth don't suck

[kazaux]

this is awesome!

[danthebackerman1]

this is like amon amarth if they were writing at the age of 12

[pinholedstars]

BLATANT RIPOFF of "With Oden on Our Side" by Amon Amarth. The first half of the riff is the same notes in the same key.

[MercEmAll]

@pinholedstars They sound close from what I can hear. I don't mind either way. I love both bands. OH well.

[mysteryrocker123]

@pinholedstars its pretty hard to find metal bands that dont sound like others

[derSilberMeister]

This is going straight to my iPod.

[skirnirBG]

Also Mythotin now King of Asgard.Nice song and album.

[kingofasgardsweden]

Facebook - king of asgard (official)

[Heruhi]

this is badass! can someone tell me about these guys?

[SimonDaNinja2]

Isn't this song in the intro of some infidelamsterdam videos? :D Awesome song, awesome band!

[IhasMetal]

@SimonDaNinja2 If think you are correct. :)

[Hunntroll]

Its not bad Simphatic but it's powerless and there is nothing that i haven't heard or seen in Finntroll-Enslaved-Amon Amarth

[maddog793]

29 people got slaughtered by the Einharjar.

[FolkMetalPiper]

I bought the album and this is pretty much the strongest song on it by far!

[buddya01]

I can't believe how much this sounds like Mithotyn. I've always hoped for a new Mithotyn album, but if we never see one this is almost as good!!!

[urinema]

the lead singer looks like liev schreiber. haha good band tho

[desertfox2020]

@urinema I thought I was the only one who thought that lol

[ZombieHippie91]

I love Viking Metal!! Amon Amarth, Tyr, Ensifernum, King of Asgard, they're all amazing! And, being part viking myself, makes me feel awesome for just being a descendant of such epicness!

[babal1ty]

Soul of Mithotyn still lives.

[YorkGod1]

love that first rift bit that sold me straight away then bought it! fucking amazing!

[TheDrapir]

One...and the same; one...and the same;one...and the same;so many of them,so little they bring...RECYCLING! This hold genre keeps eternally recycling. BORING.

[2QsharkQ2]

@TheDrapir Then find yourself something else to listen to, if you find this boring.

[TheDrapir]

@2QsharkQ2 OOoo, don't you worry about that...

[2QsharkQ2]

@TheDrapir Krapyl ..

[FolkMetalPiper]

@TheDrapir LOOOOOL

[Karthadasht]

i play norse in age of mythology and listen to that song .... KICK ASS

[skjaldulfr]

Ehh, this song is kind of crappy.

[mrbob2020]

@skjaldulfr You shut your whore mouth!

[FloridianAsshole22]

angry much? 

[yarborg1]

viking tune i believe,i can dig it as a black lesbian fag commie whore.

[TholunMetal]

This is...Metal!

[TheMetalguitarguy]

Mega under-rated! Yet another band I was lucky enough to stumble upon on Last.FM

[metalislav]

Awesome song.. but what's up with the guy at the beginning? : /?

[MrVasyuki]

This video is seriously inspired by Einherjer's Ironbound)

[kstarter]

hälsningsarmen!

[roas2]

at first i was like "sounds like AA and im not even a massive fan of them, but then i was like FUCK YEAH *headbang*"

p.s. singer is totally sabretooth

[Nemesis2e]

26 people weren't taken by the Valkyries.

[cph421]

Thanks to myself, i found this awesome band!

[BlankTV]

@cph421 Hajhah!~ Your welcome....self!! :D

[Beaynee]

My parents love this song especially at night

[strngbd1969]

i make that same noise while i rape and pillage @ 2:42-2:48

[galatonim]

First riff sound like Amon Amarth

[sk8ingrox1]

@galatonim That's because they're essentially the same style. As far as musically, they're really close except that Amon Amarth plays in B standard and this song is in Eb I think. I expect a lot more from this band. If they're anything like Amon Amarth, no KoA fans will be disappointed.

[BloodLibel1023]

Good song, a bit repetitive, but overall it's good. Also, I like the sound quality, its fucking awesome.

[Hyenashowl]

Grow that beard out, singer-dude!

[1metalnation]

@Hyenashowl I kinda prefer the epic muttons

[SuperJodanse]

stupid xperia comercials

[TheMorgotth]

one m0:00r time

[crunchmaster9000]

Vikings just dropped everything they were going to take and spared my life when I played this song.

[DeathTernya]

my bands name is Einherjar....so this song is more than a song ang a lyrics for me

[TheMorgotth]

@DeathTernya is ironbound your song it is awsome

[Steinmetal4]

@DeathTernya you're in that band that does the song "Ironbound?" Props if you're in that band, they kick the ass.

[DeathTernya]

@Steinmetal4 no sorry thats a norwegian black metal and and i from hungary and my band play some heroic folk viiking metal /death metal songs :)

[necronomicon751]

awesome song

[YorkGod1]

can i get an instrumental of this song???

[Northerfan666]

Reminsds me of the russian band Nomans land haha :P

[YorkGod1]

lead singer looks like a great mean mother fucker!!!

I's well impressed!

[OfTheseWoods]

Amazing... I definitely hear the shadows of Mithotyn in this song...

[Steinmetal4]

@OfTheseWoods Totally. How they went from Mithotyn to Falconer i'll never know.

[SwedxSimon02]

Metal videos inevitably look awkward and this is no exception

[kotaroizumaki1]

Bands name is wrong but who cares, Awesome ass song to make up for it

[patrick22014]

This reminds me to InfidelAmsterdam!!

[TheUsnavy93]

This is the first time I've ever listened to these guys.. I'm impressed haha

[DeadwoodForest]

this band is awesome. me and my band are big fans. we are american epicness .. check my chan or go to ... inred (dot) bandcamp (dot) com ... to hear us!

[Oskcreed]

I love this song, but does it sound to anyone when hes yelling "Einharjar" like hes saying "In my eye"?

[2QsharkQ2]

Thanks to InfidelAmsterdam I found this raw band!

[DarkXxXJack]

@2QsharkQ2 same dude

[Madmanfoo55]

you can tell they listen to Amon Amarth

[abider80]

EINHARJAAAAAAAAAAR!!!

[spastikxchild13]

this is some of the purest viking metal i have ever heard (whatever that means tho! haha)

[THESKULL1979]

JOLLY GOOD SHOW INDEED.

[MeDeathLike]

Where are these dudes from?

[FolkMetalPiper]

After listening to the entire albums I can honestly say it wasnt a waste of money... Id give it a 6.5/10 - maybe a 7... this and Brethren Of The North are my favorite songs

[Matthewchmielewski10]

18 ppl are not true metalheads

[666crazymetalhead666]

wow!I have no words...

[joethetimelord]

The only thing that sucks about this band is they have far too few songs...

They'll probably fix that.

[ibr0kethedam]

@joethetimelord

they will make more songs, give it some time. this band is getting hot, and they've got a real future. look for at least one or two more albums to be released by Metal Blade.

[laotuongsl]

tuyet



[FolkMetalPiper]

IM GETTING THIS ALBUM TOMORROW!!!! YES!

[PetPineTree]

... DAMN! This is metal!

[FolkMetalPiper]

The only thing I dont like is that weird breakdown thing they got goin on.... such things belong not in Viking Metal

[metfankrizz]

Du skojjar?!

[metfankrizz]

@Ubbiii fan va coolt, läskigt å råka kasta över en frisbee eller nått :P

[FolkMetalPiper]

Hail InfidelAmsterdam! 

[Ishtarsweden]

The place they made this video must be the same place where Dawn recorded ''the knell and the world''

[KingKillStreak]

i like swedish metal better than any american metal band

[JohnDeathMetal]

its like amon amarth got intresting

[FolkMetalPiper]

@JohnDeathMetal Oh thats sad.. Amon Amarth is fucking AWESOME!

[JohnDeathMetal]

@FolkMetalPiper you forgot to add looking at the end of that sentence.....

[FolkMetalPiper]

@JohnDeathMetal fucking awesome looking? lol ok

[keller4life]

kinda like Amon Amarth, which is a good thing

[Dzschelebo]

You know you're a badass band when Sideshow Bob does your drumwork.

[Strielok1988]

King of Asgaard for sure will take a lead in melodeath / viking metal genre when Amon Amarth will retire.

[pirzol89]

Wyjebane



[SolvingOurKreation]

2:22 FUK'N PIRATE SLAM!

[Paolur]

I bet this will be the new big hit in the viking metal community.

[exitt18]

holy fuck

[Dzschelebo]

EINHARJAR!!!!!  DIE BEFORE US!!!

[DrgnLord92]

Cool song, I love the way you guys blended traditional folk themes with heavy metal. I read about your band in Metal Hammer and have been eagerly awaiting to hear your songs. Not disapointed \m/ \m/

[hellfencer]

WOW!!! that was fucking amazing! Its like Tyr + Amon Amarth + Ensiferum! but its got its own flavor.... Again, wow!

[jackdunnthemetalhead]

so powerful \m/

[Makhnovshchina]

Sounds like Kalmah

[FolkMetalPiper]

@Makhnovshchina LOL

[Cesarschineider]

[yarlzxmyrsh]

Making the Allfather proud...

[Ubbiii]

[BelgianHeadbanger]

@Ubbiii Holy fucking shit, you're one lucky son of a bitch you know that?

[Ubbiii]

@BelgianHeadbanger hehe, :D



[LifeIsGojira]

I Challenge any human being to not headbang to this.

[DarkAssassinShadow]

@LifeIsGojira Challenge Accepted

[llamacarlito]

@LifeIsGojira Does repeatedly headbutting the ceiling count as headbanging?

[shakesulla123]

@LifeIsGojira I accept your challenge!

[shakesulla123]

@LifeIsGojira Ahhhh shit! I failed!

[Kfatfat19]

@LifeIsGojira I don't want to meet the man who doesn't.

[TheWetback76]

@LifeIsGojira challenge accepted

[curlybob64]

@LifeIsGojira I tried but the strain it caused to my neck when I resisted tore 3 tendons and gave me a hernia. Also, I'm in a wheelchair now.

[InfernalSinner]

@LifeIsGojira

I sir, shall take you up on that challenge.

[InfernalSinner]

@LifeIsGojira

I'm sorry, I just can't, It is futile to resist

[joseph1193]

@LifeIsGojira ... i lost... had to do it. cant stop headbanging!!!

[metalgod1967]

sounds like a cross between amon amarth and tyr. very cool.

[CNKCLAN2]

Sound like Amon Amarth anyone? btw Amon Amarth is my fav band :P

[ACTemjin]

@CNKCLAN2 I hear Amon Amarth in their guitars and a mixture of AA and Lamb of God in their vocals...not quite sure who I'm hearing in the drums. I'll get back to ya when I figure it out.

[ennuiandthensome]

Lets go mates. Time to pillage.

[THESKULL1979]

THAT WAS REALLY FUCKIN GOOD I LIKED IT.

[patsosas]

Interesting.

[dougclub1]

PLUNDER PLUNDER PLUNDER!!!!!!!

[2muchhorrorbiz]

how reminiscent of james hetfield can this guy get?

[Tigreloaded]

My respects to all the Vikings

[MachineGuNate]

isn't it spelt einharjar?

[lordkhan]

@MachineGuNate ...Yes?

[bangsi10]

@MachineGuNate you spelli it like this "Einherjar". The men that did fall in battle and went to Valhallar (valhalla) are called Einherjar. btw i´m from iceland and i have pure viking blood runing in me =)

[Praw48]

@bangsi10. Pure viking blood + Iceland = Inbreeding, man :P..
