Over 10 years ago RUclips blessed me with their suggested videos with this band, before their stand up and fight album came out. It’s a shame they haven’t had an album out in a decade. Even if they had a reunion tour, I’m sure in the US, they would be successful in doing so.
Just bought the reissues of Stand up and Fight and The Varangian Way... cannot believe how much I used to love these albums. Don't know why I didn't listen to them for almost 10 years.
This is so magical. I can never hear this too much. It heals my soul. I love the heavy stuff too, don't get me wrong, but this is on a different level. You can tell in the video how much fun the musicians are having, they love what they do.
***** She should'nt say "Figurativelly melted", because it would be Obvious, and Dumb. So bay saying "Literrally melted" is a Totally Acceptable Hyperbole, as it is Totally Implied that She is not really Melting, It's just dumb to assume that. eykyra Go girl :v
Nops. It is OBVIOUS She was not saying it Literally. So when She SAYS it, the sentences becomes a Hyperbole, that is acceptable. Taking the Literality literally, is just plain dumb. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
+Basil II, Emperor of the Romans The Bulgar Slayer Exactly. By saying that I was melted by his voice literally, I just added emphasis to the comment by creating an impossible or exaggerated image, as +Philippe Yamagata said, a hyperbole. It's a figure of speech. Saying "I figuratively melted" would be so literal that it would not make sense. Who am I talking to? Dr Sheldon Cooper? Thanks, +Philippe Yamagata :D
that was BEYOND incredible! these versions bring new life to their lyrics, and show the band in a whole new light i think i just found my new favorite video on youtube

Can't get enough of this, have watched it 4 times in a row and on my fifth!! You can't help but imagine being sat around a camp fire as you sharpen the edge of your battle axe, drinking, laughing and joking with your brothers in arms, knowing the carnage, sorrow, glory and honour that awaits you!! Fucking love it \m/

Iszonyat zene !!!! Köszi Turisas. Láttalak titeket tegnapelőtt !! Egyszerűen brutál volt a koncert. Nektek nem ez volt a játszóteretek, ez nyilvánvaló, de még csak a Sziget sem. Wacken, Amerika stb. Ezeket javaslom.....
Wouldn't call it "haunt", sounds like you trying actively to have a wet dream - words that as a straight man i can't believe i'm saying and fully agreeing with lol
I don't believe how long it took me to hear those guys. I've been listening Turisas for 2 weeks nonstop now o0 Epic stuff! Scandinavian music grew on me so much I've no idea if other countries create music anymore!
The guy with the sunglasses is really hot. His voice is so beautiful too. I could listen to it all day, the other guys sound awesome on back ups too XD I love these acoustic versions!
One of the biggest regrets of my life was not attending to a Turisas concert near where i live, about 10 years ago. I was out of money and didn't think they'd stop playing soon after.
I remember seeing them live at myötätuulirock when I was 11 or 12. been listening them since for 14 years now. Aivan vitun kova bändi varsinkin livenä.
I think I'm in love... And the songs are beautiful too. But seriously- too awesome to describe. Amazing band with so much energy on stage! EPIC LIKE HELL!
Absolutely need to do an acoustic tour with the Varangian Way story. People would flock to it. Who doesn't want to be teleported to a 14th century inn with a roaring fire and the buxom innkeepers wife bringing fresh pints of ale 😊
Man, 10 years later and they still sound better than most bands
Definitely!
Где они, бля делись?
12 years now 😂
Dude, 13 years
They need to release a full acoustic album because this is amazing.
I think it's better then the metal versions
WAY better.
yup
Album be damned.... I want to see them LIVE with full orchestral support.
This is why I love folk metal. It works perfectly well acoustically!
What ever happened to this marvelous band? The world needs more Turisas!
Agreed.
Here I am in 2022 and still wanting a full acoustic album. Sounds better the more you listen 🤘
I regularly play this on a Bluetooth speaker in the shower 😂 it’s perfect bathroom singing material! A full album would be awesome
Make a acoustic album!
Over 10 years ago RUclips blessed me with their suggested videos with this band, before their stand up and fight album came out.

0:00 The March of the Varangian Guard
3:42 Stand Up and Fight
9:03 To Holmgard and Beyond
Thank you for your service lol
Thx
Obrigado ❤
Turisas was my so far the best concert I have attended to.
There is always a brawl or two during their open air concerts, lol
2023 e cá estamos. Esse acústico é maravilhoso 🤟🇧🇷
mathias has one of the best voices I've heard in my life
2024. Still waiting for acoustic album
no puedo creer que hayan pasado 13 años de esta verdadera joya, son unos maestros, aguante Turisas
I bought STAND UP AND FIGHT, the extensive version and this session is on the bonus cd. I feel I've discovered gold! Much Love to Turisas...
What beautiful people you all are.
His voice is pure hormone, eargasm ...
Soaked another pair, eh?
This acustic session is a masterpiece! Aaaah... the old line-up :)
Just bought the reissues of Stand up and Fight and The Varangian Way... cannot believe how much I used to love these albums. Don't know why I didn't listen to them for almost 10 years.
Still gives me goosebumps

Matthias' Voice deeper than the Pacific ocean... rip My ovaries
X2
Alright this comment slipped past my guard and now I'm dead. 😂☠️
Litterally melted by his voice. Now I can't stand on my feet.

I saw Netta Skog with Ensiferum, she was amazing!
Man, I really wish this were on Spotify...this sort of music would put me in such a good mood after waking up!
that was BEYOND incredible!
these versions bring new life to their lyrics, and show the band in a whole new light
i think i just found my new favorite video on youtube
Far beyond the sea and distant lands
Came men with thirty ships
Had wanted to reach the Neva by night
But the weather was not on their side
And as the wind grew stronger and stronger
The rain ran down our cheeks
The bow was turned towards Gardar
The sail flew up again
Holmgard and beyond
That's where the winds will us guide
For fame and for gold
Set sail for those lands unknown
Osmo and Dalk, Kyy, Kokko and Ulf
Were glad to be off the oars
Turo had eaten too much again
Now hanging himself overboard
The Tostensson twins were excited as always
Adventure was their game
Myself, Hakon the Bastard
was out to find my name
Holmgard and beyond
That's where the winds will us guide
For fame and for gold
Set sail for those lands unknown
Who is "I" without a past?
A river without a source?
An event without a cause?
Threads of different lengths
Some longer, some shorter
So many of them spun together
The crones keep on weaving
The algorithm of our lives
Cause and effect, the fates of men
We know the way to Aldeigju
Upstream the river Alode
You take us to the portage
And further (South)
Long is the way to the unknown
Long are the rivers in the East
Far lies the land that Ingvar
And his men desire to reach
Many dangers lie ahead
Some of us may never return
Rather sold as a slave to the Saracens
Than chained to your bed, chained by your life!
Holmgard and beyond
That's where the winds will us guide
For fame and for gold
Set sail for those lands unknown
Simply the best! Congratulations and thanx for your music! I love this LP!!
These guys are amazing. Discovered them in 2013. I come back every year.
Vocês são MARAVILHOSOS!
What a powerful voice! Awesome.
13:00 When Mathias points his finger at Olli and says "some of us may never return". Now that's funny :))
and sad...
Marlon Quilante ?????
omg, what an amazing voice
Can't get enough of this, have watched it 4 times in a row and on my fifth!! You can't help but imagine being sat around a camp fire as you sharpen the edge of your battle axe, drinking, laughing and joking with your brothers in arms, knowing the carnage, sorrow, glory and honour that awaits you!!
Fucking love it \m/
Não me canso de ouvir isso. Heavenly!!!
The best Acoustic I have ever seen. ❤
oh my god this voice.... if my husband had his i would listen all day long to him whatever shit he says-no matter as long as he keeps talking :P
The sun rose ove the wasteland
As far as the eye can see
Sand fills the vast plains of Serkland
It's vultures jeering at me
But they can circle until they drop dead
I have not come this far
To end, but to pursure my own thread
To join the Varangian Guard!
Guards of glory and of might
Red as blood and black as night
Flies our banner as we march
In the East, for the king of the Greek
There's men of the cross and the hammer
A few of the moon crescent
Men simply searching for glamour
Some concealing their royal descent
The axe-bearing foreigners they have aptly named us
All we've come from afar
Diversity is what unites us
We are the Varangian Guard!
Guards of glory and of might
Red as blood and black as night
Flies our banner as we march
In the East, for the king of the Greek
Miklagard, in the second indiction,
In the 6542nd year of the world
To Holmgard and beyond
This is where the winds have us guided
For fame and for gold
We once set sail for these lands unknown
Guards of glory and of might
Red as blood and black as night
Flies our banner as we march
In the East, for the king of the Greek
Reminds me of Dethklok using "Grampa's guitars"
Turisas suena genial de cualquier manera posible *-*
Tienes razón.
Oh my heart beats so fast when I look at Mathias. Never seen so handsome man. :D
This is like the metalocalypse episode where they have to put the troll back to sleep.
Grandpas guitars!
Iszonyat zene !!!! Köszi Turisas. Láttalak titeket tegnapelőtt !! Egyszerűen brutál volt a koncert. Nektek nem ez volt a játszóteretek, ez nyilvánvaló, de még csak a Sziget sem. Wacken, Amerika stb. Ezeket javaslom.....
levediagyermeke Jöjjenek csak hozzánk, addig jó. Bízom benne, hogy egy jó együttes elvállalja a kisebb nézőszámot is, ha meghívják őket.
It's amazing. He's amazing.
Man, I just love these versions
ca fait du bien!!! on voyage!!!
He can go soooo epic low with his voice!
I'm amazed
29 years im living in this earth.. Now i Just found the superb band in the entire planet.. He Just had Amazingly manly voice!!.. Saluttt
And here I am again to listen once more
I LOVE Turisas. Mathias's voice is one of the best voices i've ever heard.
Brilliant! Love the deep baritone of the Matthias. 💕
I will now sleep and let his voice haunt me.
With sweet sweet haunting dreams
Wouldn't call it "haunt", sounds like you trying actively to have a wet dream - words that as a straight man i can't believe i'm saying and fully agreeing with lol
OMG, that version of To Holmgard and Beyond !!
blows me away. All 3 are awesome !
When I discovered this. I stood up and fought looking into the light pushing the clouds away!
I remember flicking through TV channels and seeing Turisas in London I think, in the 'get in the ring' and I was captivated!
Not really a big fan of Turisas but I love this. If they ever release an acoustic album, I'm willing to sail to Holmgard and beyond to get it.
Perkele I'll join the quest xD
It's not too difficult to sail to Holmgard. :) Welcome to Russia! :)
Ancient Novgorod (Holmgard) is really very beautiful.
@@Arseny150 That's the one called Veliky Novgorod now, right?
@@Endelite yes, you are right. "Veliky" simply means "Great" in Russian.
@@Arseny150 Ah, and Nizhny means..?
This is the most solid acoustic live of the century!
Extraño tanto a Turisas.
I would love to see this band do a full epic orchestral set us like what Metallica did. I think this band is perfect for that sort of sound.
I don't believe how long it took me to hear those guys. I've been listening Turisas for 2 weeks nonstop now o0 Epic stuff! Scandinavian music grew on me so much I've no idea if other countries create music anymore!
Cara, pense num Metal Viking q é muito foda !!!
I LOVE TURISAS
I love watching their violist play. Great versions of theirs songs, great vibe.
I came to hear Stand Up and Fight, and stay and felt in love with Holmgard and Beyond...this band is fucking awesome.
this voice, this sound, is gourgeos
😱 Amazing! How come I never saw this before?!
Thank you for that performance Turisas. Great
Fucking beautiful!
Es tan bella su voz, todo es perfecto en este acústico 💜
I loved the end of Stand Up And Fight
Diversity is what unites us, we are the Varangian Guard!
Absolute gold. Love this.
Warlord Mathias rocking that fucking Tambourine hell yeah man! XD
Holy fucking shit. Thank you for uploading.
Crinitus ikr
Seriously, you guys should make an acoustic album. Every single metal head that I know would buy it.
OMG. ...that voice .... uffff
Damn, this is epic! Makes me respect them as musicians even more.
3 songs are not enough. We need more.
I listen to turisas all the time when i'm working out! :D
Amoooo esse vídeo 💜💜💜
Mathias perfeito!
No creo que fuera casualidad que conociera a Turisas. Es la banda que esperaba en mucho tiempo para que deleitara mis oídos.
The guy with the sunglasses is really hot. His voice is so beautiful too. I could listen to it all day, the other guys sound awesome on back ups too XD I love these acoustic versions!
Turisas' music is so much more beautiful acoustically :D and it's freakin awesome normally!
de lo mejor que ha salido de metal en los ultimos 5 años, esperamos su gira latinoamericana. Great Band.
Very beautiful version, I loved it!
Yeah, violin solos are better or at least equal to guitar solos :D
+V Marius Olli Vanska (the violin player) talks of himself as a "man on the mission against guitar solos" :D
swiinka Yeah, I know :)
excelente melodía; saludos desde Chiapas, México.......
this is, unbelievable beutiful craftmanship. high props from ol'skooler. cheers!
Acoustic versions are beautiful.

But seriously- too awesome to describe. Amazing band with so much energy on stage! EPIC LIKE HELL!
This is awesome. Mathias voice´s is soooo perfect!
Isso é uma obra de arte 🇧🇷
É um crime como essa banda é subestimada
This is so great. And it will even greater if they decide to release an entire album with acoustic songs only. Fantastic music they make.
i ve listened to this at least 10 times today. id love an album like this
This is even better than the album (and that was one of the best things out there!)
netta is so beautiful *^*
You mean Mattias
2018 Netta Skog played with Nightwish as guest 3 times. It was awesome!
Is Netta the violinist?
The accordion player.
@@marvinthemaniac7698 xD xD xD
pleaseee!!!! come to america!!!! I'm from Montevideo, Uruguay!!!
YOU ROCK DUDES!!!!

Arrepia até os cabelos do meu subaco!
Intéressant de les entendre en version acoustique 😊 à quand la prochaine session? Et le prochain album????
Esa voz enamora
