  • That solo is so fucking motivating

  • Their newer albums just sound like overproduced mainstream metal, of the kind you'd find on Roadrunner Records. Some may like that stuff. But this albums has more of a earthly feel to it.

  • viking metal is heavy medal influenced by Nordic roots and ballads so tyr would if fact be folk and viking medal so every one shut up

  • stop calling it viking metal ffs.. u CANT decide a bands genre from what the band sings about !!

  • @Erikffs That's what makes one genre different from another...

  • @echoside190 Ehm no, that is what many think. but the genre of a band is not based on what they sing about, rather how the music is played and how its compossed. For an example if what u say is true, that means that Tyr and Amon Amarth is the same genre. But Amon Amarth is a DeathMetal band. Tyr on the other hand i would call folk metal, because their music(NOT LYRICS) is highly influensed by their faraoe inheritance.

  • I just prefer old albums, I can't help it :-)

  • I like Pól Arni Holm, I don't really know why. it just fits this very well

  • I miss the old Tyr - form "How far to Asgard" and "Eric the red". In Napalm Records they got better promotion and stuff, but now they sound more like the rest of viking metal bands. Their unique style is gone.

  • @Nordri I disagree. Their newest album is somewhat more like most of the other stuff, but it definitely has this older progressive style as well. And the Land album was like no other band in viking metal genre. But, I will say that this is one of my favorite albums still. It's amazing.

  • @Nordri You're totally wrong.

  • anglo-saxon at its best

  • @powerslaveiron49 This is a Faroese band, not a pathetic English one!

  • @Bloodmoon17 i know im saying english is better

  • ah angelo-saxon at its best

  • Awh... I like Heri Joenson better. He is more powerful, deep, melodic, and his voice just gives me chills out of pure awe and amazement! 

  • course with that said in my former post, I'm a Heathan myself and another person's insults simply give me strength in what I believe. So what if my ancestors were barbarians technology-wise, in matters of Spirit and Culture we stood as tall as anyone else.

    anyway, back to this great band and song

  • @Vrael89 OMFG WAT A HEATHAN UR GOIN 2 HALL.

    Lol, see what I did there? Just kidding btw.

  • @Dalarae, i wouldn't say that since that merely describes a foreigner. Barbarian is a simple word to describe a foreigner with a "perceived" sub-par culture & practices to the viewer's own. English & French Westerners were Barbarians to the Chinese & Japanese despite having a more adv. civilization (same was true vice versa), the Dark Ages the Arabs of the Ottoman Empire perceived Europe to be Barbaric whereas the Europeans say the sub-Saharan Africans as such. all matters where you stand.

  • omg the solo at 3:00 - 3:30 is awesome!

  • this songs needs more powerfull vocals .. atleast the part till 1:30, from1:30 it begins to sound good

  • @mathijsjuh well it is the old singer, if you listen to the newer albums (where Heri Joensen sings) its pretty powerfull

  • One of the best songs ever made!

  • Hey! This runes mean Tzr not Tyr!

  • Hmm...this is true.

  • I wish their was a setting for keyboards in which you could type in runic, like the way the japanese have japanese characters.

  • There is. Look up the Elder Futhark Runic Font. It's a truetype and compatible with Windows.

  • Awesome thank you!

  • !!! Hjop :P

  • really??

    i think your mistaking.. look up at the runes one more time ;)

  • nope, think your mistaking.

    the 'Z' is inverted.

    look up the internet about it.

  • @blackmirror530 Qwerty/qwertz rune fail? :-D

  • @blackmirror530 They use Norse runes, not the older 'common Germanic' version you know. The z sound became an r in Norse, and the rune got turned over.

  • @Oswulf1 O, thank for the explination!

  • I agree :P

  • Homok a széélben, tudom hogy az vagyoook XDD

  • :DDDDDDDDDDDDD

  • :D:D

    van egy elméletem, miszerint a Korál együttes valójában egy misztikus táltosi jellegű tudást visz tovább(maga Balázs Fecó is egy táltos, a szél táltosa)... ők megtanították ezt a Feröeri vikingekkel egy másik idődimenzióban!

    És most erre csápolnok a volkrokkerek!

    Ein Volk Ein Rock ... Ein Führer

  • Persze!

    A Wings of Time-ot meg Berzsenyi sugallatára írták... :D

    „Oh, a szárnyas idő hirtelen elrepül. /

    S minden míve tünő szárnya körül lebeg!

    Vagy Zrínyére:

    "Az idő szárnyon jár, /

    Soha semmit nem vár, /

    És foly, mint erős folyás; ..."

    ÁÁÁÁáááá!!! Lopják a magyar verseket, dalokat dalszövegeknek!

    Méghogy vikingek .... Nah! :-p

  • @Zikhajj és miért kell ien faszságokat irnod egy jó együttes számára? aminek semmi köze a nácikhoz meg egyéb szeméthez

  • Its a viking metal band..kinda...folk/viking metal

  • Whats crazy is I have found myself doodling runes since I was a child. I only recently found out what they are. Anyone else believe in reincarnation? Some crazy stuff me thinks.

  • Comment removed

  • Definitely. Do some research. I know a couple of my past lives through research, one of which is Norse in origin.

    In my opinion, if you've been subconsciously doodling what was once thought to be one of the higher forms of magic, it deserves a little attention.

  • About as valid as speaking in tongues.

  • That's pretty weird man. What were the runes you were drawing?

  • I love that guitar bit at about 2:04

  • Comment removed

  • Please remind that ' barbarian' simply refers to someone from another culture, not necessarily less civilzed culture.

    Even if words are often used in a European/Greek/Latin/etc/ centric pov.

  • your not wrong but the roman (or greek , cant remember) word Barbarian came from the commonly held beleif in "civilised" society that the celtic language sound like a sheep's braying

  • At least someone that knows what he's saying .

    To be precise the latin barbarus and the greek barbaros were onomatopeic words used to describe rude sounds of non greek languages, i have no references that it was in regards of the celtic language precisely.

  • barbarian is latin, for a person not speaking latin. Because it sounded like barba. so just "uncultured" people.

  • @Dalarae i think, that the term "barbarian" is considered a brutelike race, that is unaffected by "relegion" as it is today.

  • @vj420 lmao

  • @Dalarae also...literally translated..."barbaian" means "does not speak greek" so are we to say that any great mind or civilization that didnt speak greek was cruel or corrupt? of course not....I look at my barbarian and norse roots with pride! Hail!

  • @Dalarae Compare the Greek “barbarian” (βάρβαρος) to the Hebrew “goy” (גוי). There was a time when “goy” meant “nation”, but with the rise of the Roman Empire it developed the same meaning as “barbarian”.

  • Is the solo around 3 Moazart or Beethoven? It sure sounds like it. Either way, brilliant solo! I love this band and this song!

  • The solo sounds more like baroque music (1600- 1750, around that). So it's before Beethoven, and a little before Mozart. Maybe J-S. Bach ?

  • it's very easy to see the vikings as barbarians, after all, much of what the world saw of them was the raids. it''s a paradox really; at one side you have the raging, pillaging barbarians and on the other side you have quite sivilized merchants and skillfully artisans/crafters :)

    i love my history ^^

  • Could you please stop that fuckin´ shit?The Music is important,so shut up!

  • ah i love when i have history lessons with my metal xD

  • xD Yeah, Vikings may be barbarians for some populations, but this is just a point of view ! If I had to choose, i would prefer being a "barbarian" than being someone else close-minded who doesn't even respect the other's culture.

  • agreed. did u know that many people of Norse heritage were actually farmers?

  • Well, no, but it seems evident : they can't be warriors, now. ;-)

  • your fucking mother stop in 2012!!

  • ??? are you gay or something???

    you are talking some SHIT here!!!!

  • Tyr grows on you and it's not long before you realize they are the most phenomenal band of all time!

  • So if I can speak German pretty well, would it be fairly easy to learn Dutch?

  • the words are pretty similar but still very hard to learn dutch even as german

  • kickass

  • are germans and dutch able to speak to each other in their native language?

  • Well, I'm dutch, and my german is horrible. (And my english too) but the language's are related to each other...

    @vdweerd:

    wees trots op je eigen land, wees blij dat we niet op paarden lijken zoals de britten.

  • Hahaha, zo kan ie wel weer :p

  • dejligt musik :)

  • OMG amazing sounds like opeth mixed with pink floyd

  • Dude you are so right!

  • ooh Odin they go classical it amazing lol

  • horst^^

  • Røvhat!

  • But, do you understand Danish? O.o I'm Swedish and understand Danish quite well. I've also been studying German for about 4 years :)

    In spring I'll be the host for 2 german students! And in return, I'll stay with one of them for about a week. Our school has got an exchange with the Friedrisch List Gymnasium!

  • wenn du meinst ;)

  • I love the chorus of this song!

  • me have a plan! TYR's next CD could be half Folk-Metal, and half the other types of Metal the band might want to explore.

  • Terrible, pas trop hard, pas trop soft :) J'adore ^^

    Vive les Vikings lol ^^

  • genial

  • de wikipedia org/wiki/Germanische_Sprachen ;-)

  • Well it depends on how you look at it...There are many words that mean the same and are spelled with small differences, but few words who are actually the same. Example, Hus=Haus, Stol=Stuhl.

  • i am german and i can tell that it is completely different from our language! i like danish, but it is not similar to german. dutch is related to german so that it really sounds like a very strong german accent!

  • That is wrong. Danish is a part of the scandinavian languages, but yes it shares a few words with the german language...Týr rocks!!

  • It doesn't just share a few words with German. There are many of them. And why? It is quite easy... Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, German share the same routs.

  • Awesome! The solo is AMAZING both as composition and as performance! Wish ypu came to Greece some day!!

  • I went on their concert here in iceland, I fought about the pick from Terji Skibenæs.

  • I was so lucky, that Terji handed me his pick. He didn't throw it or anything, he just handed it to me.

    I also had the chance to meet them all backstage before the show, and talk a bit.

  • how was it xD

  • I have also met them myself. Even got a guitar pic handed from The lead guitar player.

  • They are from Faroe Islands which is "owned" by Denmark.

  • are you guys all stupid!

    fuck!

    faroe islands are in denmark.

  • Faroe Islands are NOT in Denmark.. I've been living in Denmark 22 years, so i should know.

    They are just a part of our monarchy, but have home rule. Danes don't consider faroe Islands as a part of our country..

    Stupid Fuck

  • Tyr should do moar songs liek Ramund Hin Unge and The Hunt, and also they should make moar liek this one!

  • Are you stupid? They are from Faroe Islands.

  • Týr is an faroese band, and they are just the best band ever :D

  • Youtube comments section sucks bollocks.

  • no!

    this is an epic conversation!

  • Well in their discography it says they are some from denmark and some from any island : P

  • two metalheads bitching like little girls. How rare.

    Good song!

  • yeah that sounds about right. thanks

  • Faroe Islands.... wherever the crap that is

  • Between norway and iceland.

  • you ignorant cocksucker.

  • south of iceland

  • Again... Faroe Islands. They are not Icelandic.. I am Icelandic and I am pretty sure they are not.

  • I know

    That's why i pointed to the direction of Faroe islands :P..

    South of Iceland and north of England, there are some small islands, that are called The Faroe Islands

    this more precise?

  • Ahh, I thought you were meaning that they were from Iceland ;)

  • jajaja! those two are hilarious XD

  • krl wa i probleem gezit slecht te reageern op filmkes vn onze skatecrew en gekent er nx van

  • Why did the singer left the band?

  • they changed to his brother i suppose, anyway the new one is 100 better

  • The phrase Sieg Heil or in english Hail Victory where also used by the Romans 2000 years before the 3rd Reich. So Shut your buttholes. You wouldn't be pissed off if it was written in latin. It's just because it in german.

  • this is such a party song aha

  • His voice is great

  • Can you avoid using the word "Sieg Heil"? I HATE NATZIS! But fuck capitalists yes :P

  • sieg heil actually means hail victory, so its not antisematic or something. thought you should refer from using it, being the sazi slogen and stuff. and i agree about the capitalist, social-democracy!

  • uhh.. year :O

  • sieg heil isnt nazi..its just a phrase they happen to have used, its like saying if hitler ate a hotdog everyone who eats hotdogs are nazis lol xD

  • uhh year hotdogs is nazi food lols :D

  • the mystery meat is realy jew D: lol

  • hahaa :D

  • dirty muslim and no im not jewish no go ride a camel

  • I just rode my cammel last night on my way back from your moms place, dont want to work him too hard.

  • how perceptive of you, yes i do have a beard, its because I'm a man, when your balls drop you'll be able to get one too, then you can call yourself a man ;)

  • "there are two types of people in this world who do not have beards..Women and children, and I am neither." Funny! i did the same to your mom! heres your shovel back.

  • What nazi???????? Is viking metall...and viking metall is the best...fuck nazi and emo!

  • emos sucs.VIKING THE BEST

  • come on just, shut up, and all you stupid americans, shut up you have no idea what nazis are...just shhut up.... and metal has nothing to do with nazis im an austrian and i can tell you there is MUCH difference.... and not all german and austrians are nazis... in fact about 1% (or less) are nazis.. i say all this because i heard these things in several metal comments..just SHUT UP

  • Can you losers just stop writing about nazis in music video? Just enjoy Tyr, they are a great band.

  • please shut up before you embresse you self..

    i'm not a emo kid anymore.. got on anti-deprissiv (halleluja)

    and not all that lives in those suburban homes..

    well.. please just shut up

  • and 'gangsters' are people who beats people up without a reason couse they're a group of cocksucking jurks..?

    just the same to say..theres a bad side of every single style.. but get to know the people before you judge them.. know their past.. they might have something to cry about?

  • whats right about emos?

    well.. whats wrong i could ask you?

  • All you ppl must appreciate that the History books are written by the winners, that is the nature of propaganda.

    There are so many mis truths told about what the Nazi's are supposed to have done. You cannot take anything at face value because everything you have been taught is someone trying to influence your viewpoint. Search "Davis Cole Auschwitz". You will have your reconceptions about histirical events put into a bit more perspective.

  • oh ya and most german soldiers in ww2 didnt know their country was doing that kind of thing talking jews and....

  • tyr:D best song!

  • Wait the Nazis spit in the face of both Scandinavia and America and that pisses me off!

  • Um, no they didn't.

    Many of the ideologies were actually American and European already.

    For example the eugenics policy was copied from America.

  • THEY DIDNT KILL PEOPLE FOR NO REASON,THEY DIDNT CONQUIRE COUNTRIES,THEY DITN LISTEN TO A DUMBASS,mabey now but NOT THEN!

    THEY DIDNT TORTURE BLACK PEOPLE,mabey the people but sureley not THE ARMY/POLITITIANS,THEY DIDNT TORTURE JEWS OR ANYONE WITH THEIR OWN BELIEFS!!!!¨!DUMBASS!

  • kids

  • yeah ppl who belive that nazies are the right thing are just little kids looking for some community to ease the pain of their crappy lives.. Most nazies here on Iceland carry knives and all kind of weapons becouse they are wimps who cant fight without weapons..

  • Wait the Nazis spit in the face of both Scandinavia and America and that pisses me off!

  • Nazies were all gay,stupid dark hearted mentally ill people.

  • Nazis cashed out on the ultimate European dream, Unity. Any one yelled "United Europe", Europeans followed blindly. Emperors, Popes, crusaders, Napoleon, Bismark. Nazis figured that out, and pushed for a massive lie that they will accomplish One Europe, one flag, one nation. They had no plan at all, except kill anyone who asks them:What's your plan for unity?

  • Wow, a real intelectual we have here. You are a sad sorry state of a human being. At least study something before you knock it. Do you even know the 25 points of National Socialism? Do you understand that it was a defensive action against a threat from the Communist Marxist ideologies that were destroying Germany and Europe at the time? (And which now have a solid grip on Europe and America).

    Know what you are talking about before you run your mouth- & remember tv and movies is not a teacher..

  • I will tell u that I do not know that. However i do know that ppl feel hate filled rage when u insult their country and values. The condition of the Nazis were under a leader who took many drugs and had horrible phycological/mental health after WWI. I was stating an opinion so I may not say it in fancy words like u but how can i be wrong about my opinion?
