The song was featured in Vikings and AC Valhalla it is from an Icelandic saga and the lead singer learned it in Icelandic to keep it authentic.

Santino Morella? 😂😂😂 OK, this name is so much fun. It's pronounced "Sal-tat-sio Mor-tis" or "Saltazio Mortis". Love your reaction to it.

We were being sarcastic. Unfortunately the world is filled with people who see what they want to see even when there is nothing there to see.

Tells you all you need to know about some people's lack of depth of understanding and context.

@A&P Reacts This Band has a great range of Sounds. They started as an Medieval Folk Band and for me they are now a true Metall Band! You have to Watch “Mittelfinger Richtung Zukunft“. At this Song they had two guestsingers. One of them is the frontman of the 90ts Crossover band H-Blockxx and the other is an german Rapper, who had also an song with Lord of the Lost called „Schwarz tot Gold“.

This is a iceland poem written by/about Egil a 7 years boy that killed a older boy. Everybody hate him for his action, BUT his MOTHER TOLD HIM he will be a great Viking! If you listen you hear the "norse" language from the poem that turned into this song. And they are Vikings and Sjaman dressed up for personal fight. -Norway Viking 🇧🇻👑

Alea is a cosplayer and that was i´his Eivor cosplay from Ac:valhalla. And that he sung in icelandic is no coinsident. Thats an ols icelandic song. And Saltatio Mortis have songs in German, medival German, French, Latin, Englisch, swedisch and old swedisch

Guys you get yourself in a deep rabbit hole with this. There are a lot more amazing Medival Metal Bands (yes that’s really a whole genre in Germany) to check out.

You need to do THE Band starting it all: In Extremo, Herr Mannelig, a Swedish song, sang in Swedish. Also featured in the German Game "Gothic" (in 2001, how many bands have had a digital Gig in a Video Game ever since?). Or "Liam" sang in Gaelic. You need to react to them. Another very Special Band is Van Canto. Mostly they use only a Drumset and their Voices. There is a Cover Version of "Fear of the Dark (live in Wacken)" on KZread that is pretty awesome.

The video depicts a viking ritual called "Holmgang" (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holmgang) where the nordic people would settle their differences. Whoever draws first blood wins. They did this since about 1000 BC, way before the set their feet on american soil. So give this folk a little credit, not everything is about your culture an nobody over here bats an eye if some dude is covered in mud or dirt and accuses him of "blackfacing". We sure have our own racists and every problems with them along those lines but I highly doubt that the thougt about some american snowflakes going berzerk when some supposed ancient warriors a ritually colored befor a fight.

Hey guys! This poem, Þat mælti mín móðir, was written in approx year 917 by my great great great... (repeat "great" 26 times hehe) grandfather Egill Skallagrímsson. I am his direct descendant 28 generations up. Egill Skallagrímsson was born in Iceland in the year 910 and is the main character in one of the most famous Icelandic Sagas, "Egils saga Skallagrímssonar". He was the son of Skallagrímur Kveldúlfsson, who emigrated from Norway. They settled in the West of Iceland and the farmhouse Borg is where they made their home. The small town of Borgarnes, a stone's throw away bears the name of farmhouse. Egill was quite the character. At the tender age of 7, he was playing sports with the neighbour's kid, Grímur Heggsson that was a strong 11 year old, and Grímur was giving Egill a hard time so Egill just killed him. As you do... haha. That's what vikings do. haha. After this his mother told him he would make a fine viking and Egill wrote this poem on that occasion. It should be noted that the Icelandic language has changed very little since that time. Here's Egill's original poem, followed by the modern Icelandic version: Þat mælti mín móðir, at mér skyldi kaupa fley ok fagrar árar, fara á brott með víkingum, standa upp í stafni, stýra dýrum knerri, halda svá til hafnar hǫggva mann ok annan, Það mælti mín móðir, að mér skyldi kaupa fley og fagrar árar, fara á brott með víkingum, standa upp í stafni, stýra dýrum knerri, halda svo til hafnar höggva mann og annan, Þorsteinn Kolbeinsson

i have seen them live already and you will definitly not stand still for 1 second in the crowd they are allways motivating the crowd to move and interact with each other! they are also less known because they only tour or toured in the MPS(Medival Phantasy Spektakulum)! as i already told you prometheus was a song that lifted this band up again from nearly breaking up and never be known to you guys! so i would love if you checked this one out before other new ones since stuff like loki was in my opinion one of the most boring songs they put out! if you want to go to an oktober fest you will definitly get sausage and potatos or sauerkraut at the fest ^^ unless its a bad copy of one! but you can also get ketchup or mustord on them and get the sausage in a bun/roll and you might also would like to check out some bakeries if you come to germany for something like this! only thing i didnt like Ubisoft metioning in here sorry but please dont compair a company that shitty to Saltatio mortis not even their games! sorry but i just cant forgive this company for beeing shitty to their employees in the worst kind of way and it puts them on top of every worst gaming company i know of!

I'm very curious to see your reaction to the same song but performed by VoicePlay.

Please Check out the Band „In Extremo“

Actually the name of the band is pronounced Santiano Marwutzke ;-) But seriously... Although a lot of their songs are in German, you should check out the Wacken Show that was somwhere mentioned in another comment. Satans Fall ist pretty great in my opinion.

Please check out one Second from Paradise Lost 🤟❤
