about
Der Text von dem Lied stammt aus dem sogenannten Abecedarium Nordmannicum.
Es ist das älteste von gerade mal nur noch fünf heute bekannten Runengedichten.
Niedergeschrieben wurde jenes kurze Merkgedicht wahrscheinlich im neunten Jahrhundert in Fulda und über die Zeit hinweg gelangte es bis in die Schweiz nach St. Gallen.
In ihm werden zum Teil in Stabreimen die 16 Runen aus dem jüngeren Futhark umschrieben bzw. kurz erläutert.
Die Sprache selber besteht aus einem Konglomerat verschiedener alter germanischer Dialekte.
Die Gebrüder Grimm hatten auch hier abermals ihre Hände mit im Spiel.
Wilhelm Grimm fertigte zum Glück eine Abzeichnung an, welche heute immer noch als Grundlage zur wissenschaftlichen Bearbeitung dient.
Denn das Original ist leider durch inkorrekte Behandlung im 19. Jahrhundert fast nicht mehr lesbar.

I'd say Havukruunu is the rightful holder of the Crown and the mantle of Quorthon. Epic choirs, vikingesque themes and tales from the other times, of the Finnish paganism back in the days before our ancestors were brought to the cross and forced to kneel while feeling the bloody sword of saviour on their throats made to kiss the hand of murderers who burnt thousands, tore down our holy places and took our holy days. Eyes teary I listen to these songs, never forgiving the crimes of the cross! Peikonmieli

Music that has nothing to prove which has not already proved and nothing to expect when there is nothing to be expected and that is so liberating :) nakilep

Very calm, soothing, yet strong and evocative melodies. Great introduction into the world of Forndom and a true, even if a bit short, escape from the world of men. Anders Kvistr

This might be my favourite of Heilung. They've improved a bit on their later releases but their debut is still much meaner, and darker. Maria's amazing voice obviously steals the show but I also quite like Kai's too, especially on the live performance. In fact I'd say get LIFA over this IMO.
The spoken word bits are really cool to hear proto-germanic in use but for relistening purposes they are going to be a bit obtrusive. Nevertheless the proper music here is on continual repeat for me. Rabbit
