Týr - Ólavur Riddararós

[aelfcynn]

oh, there are still Vikings in the world. Bring them here to the UK, we could do with a good pillaging and...er..other stuff. Too many weak useless men with no taste in music here. Bring Týr here! :]

[serifinkiwi]

Once I discovered Tyr I love metal...

[alexamnt]

hi my neme is adolf

[Skogsraaet]

I like Olaufvir liljuros from island better....

[roesdahlschou]

YESSSSSSSS~ THE GUNNAR SHOW :DDD

[Mxyzplkado]

Hail!

Good to see such fantastic music!

If in 2007 they're, now they are awesome!

Greetings from Brazil!

[HessenDragoon]

I know the comments about dislikes are getting a bit hackneyed, but if this isn't one's thing, why would one come searching to view these videos?

[wepgod]

3 idiots missed the "Like button".

[Iamnotanumbernr1]

@wepgod 4 people were so drunk, they bend over their laptop from the other side and gave it a thumbs up...

[afireinsidemysoul]

i am amazed and love this band i found them this morning and they have renewed my love for metal

[teufelstaub]

Heri and the guys can invade my hamlet any day!

[HavePride1]

LOL

[jettbugg]

Worth watching but the actual sound quality is not very good...these guys rock!

[Wiegieboard]

awesome live band. Saw them with alestorm in glasgow. Been a fan ever since.

[torentrap]

Mmmmm :)

[chokeonbubblegum]

finnland is actually has their own set of beliefes and gods only somewhat similar to the norse they were also refered to as magicians by the vikings because most finns in that era were shamanistic where as the vikings only women were shamans (other than odin of course but loki poked fun at the fact)

[smedaas]

There were male shamans amongst the vikings as well. "Seidmenn"

[ageana77]

I feel so bad I wasn't able to see them this last time they came to my state. Besides them having exponential talent, they are absolutely the nicest guys in the world. Very down to earth, and fun to be around. I wish nothing but the best for them.

:)

[impyshmimpy]

I think every live video I've seen of Tyr almost fully focuses on their bassist and NEVER turns to Terji when he plays those sick solos. I wish they'd play somewhere around here, they're probably my favorite band at the moment.

[SixStringPaladin]

Yeah I noticed that too, its probably because he moves the most. At least its not a COB situation where there is nothing but singer footage. Tyr is amazing and they know it regardless of publicity.

[HerbredMadness]

@impyshmimpy Well most people don't have a huge sparkly bass... I do agree with the fact that Terji needs some more attention!

[Karinelisadjurhuus]

That's what I call music 8D

I'm proud of being faroese :D

[VPunisher]

me to !!!

[Quemin]

Holy...he's freaking ripped! Great song though.

[xaranduhr]

That should be normal for a viking/german! :)

[METALIST1989]

I was there :) Too bad not too many people were, wasnt too good of a pit, but anyway these guys ROCK live, especially the bass player Gunnar, after the show they came down and i got a picture with him :P

Hail to the hammer!

[grindamadurin]

oh Helviti ja! hettar er fanimi bara for feitt

[AmiDiamargo]

hmm...

a viking band..in which..the members r ripped...

:P

[gryphonavocatio]

It's because they aren't a black metal viking band :P

[enoughraptor5]

i was talking to trains2007

[alldyafterme]

They sound awsome!

[LordBashWood]

First, if you hate Týr, then why do you watch their videos?

Second, if you hate them, then dont comment on here or watch their videos.

Third, A LOT of their songs have they made themselves, and why the hell cant they take our amazing ballads and mix them with new modern metal twist to get the ballads into the 21th century?

[LordBashWood]

If you hate this, then dont comment on it or watch it. Besides Heri Joensen has the outmost respect for our ballads and believe me, without Týr, these people would never know our ballads, and they would only be more forgotten.

Next time keep those hateful comments for yourself, cause it only makes you look bad.

[Wandall13]

@LordBashWood without týr this story would be forgotten? WHAT?! Hell no, we sing them in school, my uncle knows ever vers in almost every song or kvædir as the faroese people call it.

I really don't think, any faroese man or woman would ever forget these songs.

[LordBashWood]

@Wandall13 It was implied for foreign people... not the faroese

[spartanHOA]

the definition of music pretty much IS "organized noise"

[jonnierekkisvalur]

I thought this Ballad had origins in iceland..

[turbofritz2]

Trains2007 - shut up you little wanker.

Is Naddoddur not a viking, Sigmund Brestursson or Tróndur í gøtu??

[jonnierekkisvalur]

No I made a mistake. The name is almost the same, but the stories are different from one another, regarding some facts.

[qza13]

this is a scandinavian ballad you can find it in all of the scandinavian countries except finnland i think

[mogyesz9]

Finnland is the only non germanic scandinavian country thats why i guess :)

[sonoNEKO]

Finland is quite the oddball among the countries there

[Waredith]

aGeilini: Finland doesn't "like" to think of itself as a Scandinavian country, most people here just don't realise there's a difference between "Scandinavia" and "The Nordic Countries" =)

[enoughraptor5]

So did you make this message and just copy it and post on all their songs. Really thats pretty pathetic.

[yroslav]

if they come to a shit hole like latvia why not israel ? :(

[Notides360]

FUCK ISRAEL! Thats why.

[yroslav]

sure thing you donky fucking carping sitting ass smelling dick head go make cababs or somthing

[Notides360]

Hmm. Admittidly my saying "Fuck Israel" wasnt logic in and of itself, but your getting way out of line you racist pig. Its ok for an Israeli or a Jew to be racist and ethnocentric but nobody else? Think your chosen and better than everybody else you arrogant piece of shit?

P.S. Although I am Muslim I am still extremely proud of my Greek/Norwegian ancestry and still love the mythology of my ancestors although I dont believe it to be true they make good stories which some actually have values.

[norseman7088]

Thor is bogus but Allah is truth?

Bwahahahaaaa!

[Notides360]

Qur'an

109:1 Say: O disbelievers!

2 I worship not that which ye worship;

3 Nor worship ye that which I worship.

4 And I shall not worship that which ye worship.

5 Nor will ye worship that which I worship.

6 Unto you your religion, and unto me my religion.

[The1TheyCallJake]

Does the Qur'an really say that? That's awesome. My respect for Muslims just increased.

[helgijp]

nær fanin spæla teir í føroyum aftur ?

[JesperCarrot]

I wanna see these guys live someday. They're FUCKIGN AWESOME. And the singer is kinda sexy. lol!

[Shiggityshiggtyschwa]

Agreed!

And I love how people downvote your comment just because you think the singer is sexy... He IS sexy! Everyone's thinking it, you're just saying it! Lmfao. Cheers. :D

[DanishSpiritFan]

Hey, you're rigt.. Wow, what is that for? :D Hmmm..

[Quemin]

Fuck, hell yeah he's sexy. All of them are-but I generally like men with long hair who play good loud music.

Viking/pagan metal guys are the best.

[METALHEAD4U]

im seeing them on thursday...PAGANFEST! in NY...cant fucking wait

[BATMANBLA]

FØROYAR

[crimsonsonata]

yay!!! tyr I can't wait till july.... i want to see them now...!!!

[tsjoencinema]

Týr is very good band. I always buy their CD's.

[dunuzivs]

and wee called them back for three times!

[dunuzivs]

I was in this concert!

I was siting on the stage during they're performance, but you can't see me good, because I was siting in the other side of the stage!

Got two picks from solo guitarist! he he!

And they are coming to Latvia again this summer! hell yeah!

Everybody must come to Metalshow '08

[radgefark]

[wingthor7]

HAIL TO THE HAMMER!

[SssThsss]

Gotta love that bassist

[Hedinerieg]

Týr Kicks Ass !

i was in backstage once they played in Faroe islands it was awesome !

[FaroeseViking]

yeah and who was it that took you in there ^^

<----

[UlverHyler]

great song! and why the hell don't more bands do as Týr and play WITHOUT a shirt!?

[AliasIsa]

Amon Amarth (Johan) ;-)

[mutianpu]

I don't care at all of their clothes or beard. It's their music that counts.

[jedivolt]

Ensiferum ;)

yaya... clothes aren't that important... but it makes the viking metal like style more authentic... and ensiferum do have war paint in their faces for example.. well but i think týr don't need that stuff cos they rock

[Robbi159]

Almost every folk metal band in Iceland :)

[jedivolt]

1. ensiferum are not from iceland but from finland

2. týr aren't from iceland but from the faeroe isles

[Robbi159]

Who says I was talknig about Týr? I was answering to that "Why wont all folk metal bands play with out shirts"

[SssThsss]

Vreth from Finntroll always sings without a shirt.

[ThaiEgho]

Who cares if they wear their shirts or not? what are you guys a bit homosexual or something?

[SssThsss]

I was replying to a previous comment.

[ngdawa]

i love this song!!

[alfgart]

What a great band!

[thyrf1ng]

[Boladrion]
