Moonsorrow - Jotunheim [1 of 2]

[FlashBlack]

Love the 1:38 - 1:40 bird sound that takes you back to 0:01 but with a sad-ish background tune :)

[TheNPChannel]

One of the greatest songs ever, everyone who was in Finland once must love this song as its carrying the beauty and soul of this country.

[wello1led]

the beginning is just killing me

[miksebaan1]

breath taking

20 minutes of greatness

[VikingmetalSoldier]

Hail Moonsorrow

[KSCIAA]

@Kaunistanssija Don't have the link but what I do have is an actual copy of the photo. If you want it message me your email and it'll be yours.

[Aeveddien]

Better don't try to fall asleep while listening this song... Imagine my reaction at 02:56 :D

[lenelovis]

I love it!!! Sooo great!

[Schmandbrot]

my favorite song... and from theirt best album in my opinion. Ahhh now I remember how I was always listening to their songs on my way to school. I didn't mind the long walk at all ;)

[StillSnoopDoggNDre]

Giant from Jotunheim!!! Moonsorrow is definitively the Viking band.

[Thorbrandt]

I know this song for about 6 years now. And for all this time, the call of the Black-throated Loon showed me the gate to my dreams. This sound will never leave my mind.

[Buddybands]

i love his scream. :)

[MorbidJanette]

I motherfucking LOVE Moonsorrow. Perfect. JUST PERFECT.

[GuerillaBunny]

The bird is a black-throated diver.

[BertAtkin]

@GuerillaBunny Thank you very much.

[666satanification666]

As I walk through the deserted forest the smell of burned thatch fills me with dread. I come into the clearing that I remember so clearly from my childhood to see all that I had ever loved burned to the ground. My family are all gone. I stand, no meaning left in my life, alone, pondering why I exist at all. And then...

TWO HUNDRED SCREAMING VIKINGS CHARGE OUT OF THE WOODS AND ENGAGE MY WAR BAND IN AN EPIC BATTLE OF GIGANTIC BEARDS AND INCREDIBLE MANHOOD!

[BertAtkin]

Does anyone know what the bird call is in the intro? I'm just being a nerd and would like to know. Epic music!

[666satanification666]

@BertAtkin I initially thought it was larksong, but I looked that up and it didn't sound anything like it at all. I looked into it and the only thing I can find is the golden eagle. I don't know if it is, but it is the closest I seemed to get. The "eagle" cry always really moves me, it really helps to emphasize the feeling of desolation in that beautiful intro, don't you agree?

[BertAtkin]

@666satanification666 The sound of the eagle seems to me to be at the start of "Haaska". But in "Jotunheim" it sounds like a Diver or loon. Moving all the same.Thanks for replying.

[MorbidJanette]

@BertAtkin Lmao. Your comment made me LULZ beyond Valhalla. KTHNX

[BertAtkin]

@MorbidJanette I think I should be thanking you? But I am nearly 43 years of age and I dont know what LULZ means. Please explain, sorry I'm getting old! ha ha.

[MorbidJanette]

@MorbidJanette It's a good thing. In other words, it made me feel rather jolly. Sorry this internet forum lingo is getting out of hand, I totally understand why you wouldn't know what the fuck that would mean. Haha.

[metallifreak77]

It really says something about a band when literally NONE of these uploads I've gone through have more than 10 'dislikes'. That would be because it is difficult even for the countless youtube trolls to dislike such an amazing band as MOONSORROW. Cheers!

[RageicaNiels]

this song is to short... should have been an hour at least!!

[MorbidJanette]

@RageicaNiels HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[bagelzkickass]

Great band. The new album is good, too.

[Scottieonfire]

HOLY CRAP :D

[AK4769er]

One of my favourite bands of all time and definitely one of their best songs! Hail Moonsorrow! Hails from Australia.

[TheHilldorf]

Awesome song. Really reminds me on Nords

[TheCrackedBrick]

09:41 - orgasm!

[Ernthir]

Moonsorrow is king in creating an epic atmosphere.

[jakobizz]

Such a brilliant song. The intro is bloody amazing.

[Thucr]

i just found this band, and theres absolutely noting to dislike. i love this

wich album is it from?

[myothernameistaken]

@Thucr Verisäkeet.

[MoonofHers]

@Thucr

i agree with you, i heard this on HMR and fell in love with them

this song is from Verisäkeet (2005) album, if you still haven't found out in the past 7 months hehe

[AtteMetal]

I really like the picture. Where it's from?

[KSCIAA]

@AtteMetal Google image search.

[pentabay]

@KSCIAA best response ever

[Horrortunes]

perfect vocals for a perfect song

[p3crack08]

nightwish? *vomits

[BeyondCocytus]

Moonsorrow can play circles around nightwish. they aren't even in the same caliber. Moonsorrow has got to be one of the most original and talented bands in all of metal and this song is a testament to that. Nobody can use so many different instruments so flawlessly and still make it sound metal. \m/ Definitely in my top three favorite bands

[North0house]

Haha, I actually love the screaming... But, then again, I constantly listen to Mouth of the Architect, so they've grown on me. This is beautiful.

[Vattghern1]

The best song with ,,Jotunheim" in the name what I heared.

[myrkkyapinat]

this is SO GOD DAMN EPIC!!!!! I always get goosebumps while listening to this.

[neibelwefer]

@myrkkyapinat you should like finsterforst a bavarian group

[carazide]

To me, staring at the picture, it looks like the clouds are drifting slowly when you are listening.

Rather wierd. (i was looking at the clouds, close to the forest when i noticed it, and not in the center of the clouds)

[Ezakoa]

Epic song !

[xamaranto]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. beautiful song.

[zeiderguy]

i totally lost my cellphone crowd surfing during this song. I found it after the show. Praise Odin.

[Horrortunes]

07:25 \m/ !

[Deathstick88]

Listened though this song for the first time when i was taking the bus home today...Can't remember last time a song have given me such goosebumps.Love this tune! :D

[maleficosyntrip]

very good , very good .... well done finnic fellow

[lucalucafelrotten]

Haista Vittu ! thankyou for the song it is soulfull. The best music has its roots in tradition, and theirs is a hauntingly lovely one. feel the snow beneath your feet, hear the woodlands turn and move around you. Ages Unfold...

[MorbidJanette]

Moonsorrow is fucking amazing.

[NihilisticIllusion]

Brilliant.

[BlastBeatDolly]

This is my favorite Moonsorrow song ever. It touches a part of my heart that has never been touched.

[BtkSlayer666]

awesomeness

[HonorThroughTheBlade]

Freakin' amazing!

[damurx]

Verisäkeet is for me the best Album Moonsorrow have Created!

[Kilgorin10]

It is the best album ever created.

[Imanuel17]

Heavenly, masterpiece. The eternity...sorrow...

[YetiBerra]

The best song from Moonsorrow <3

[evereddie]

This is such a dark album, but a masterpiece nonetheless!

[omarheiba]

[1993Moorok]

HAIL Monnsorrow

[Aemosyn]

I think that this picture describes the song very well :) I just have the feeling that this is something real :D

[lmahk]

[Cursarion]

Actually, it's from 2004.

[KSCIAA]

Actually I've found it to be 2005, but thanks for bringing this release date error to my attention.

[Cursarion]

Oops, yeah... My bad. Somehow mixed it up and didn't bother to check properly.

[KSCIAA]

S'alright.
