Heilung is amplified history from early medieval Northern Europe and should not be mistaken for a modern political or religious statement of any kind.
Heilung is sounds from the Northern European iron age and viking period. We used everything from running water, human bones, reconstructed swords and shields up to ancient frame drums and bronze rings in the songs. The lyrics contain original texts from rune stones and preserved spear shafts, amulets and other artifacts. Furthermore poems, which either deal with historical events or are translations/ interpretations of the originals. Every attempt to link the music to modern political or religious points are pointless, since Heilung tries to connect the listener to the time before Christianity and its political offsprings raped and burned itself into the northern european mentality. Heilung means healing in german and describes the core of the sound. It is supposed to leave the listener eased and relaxed after a sometimes turbulent musical journey.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuucking epic! Thank you so much H.
You the man...

The only seats I could get were in Block L (red area).
No biggie, don't mind being down in the pit anyway. :laugh:
My last pre covid gig was Testament at the National Stadium. Really doesn't matter where you get a seat as there isn't any bad vantage points from what I could see.
Saw them at Brutal Assault last year - it's a pretty damn impressive show for sure, if you're into that kind of thing.

2023..? Ffs..!!
What's the best way in and out to the national stadium if your staying in the city? Handier to walk it or is their a handy bus or Luas out to it?
That was just unbelievable. My jaw was hanging for the first couple of songs (rituals?).
The only detractor was the prick in front of me holding up his phone to video parts of a couple of minutes at a time, with the brightness turned up. Personally I don't mind a couple of sneaky subtle photos or a few seconds of footage for the 'gram (I'm guilty of it myself), but people who have the gall to ignore multiple people asking them to put it away deserve to be incarcerated and have their children put in a home.
It was an absolute spectacle alright, never seen anything like it. Still buzzing!
