Arkona

[adrian]

Vyborna kapela, posledni album je paganmetalova symfonie

[ViceMene]

:D
6. února v Petrohradě bylo asi na koncertu skupiny Arkona pěkně veselo. Ten byl ukončen jednotkami OMON (Special Purpose Police Squad) již po 30 minutách.

Tohle mě docela zaujalo a pátral jsem trochu víc a zjistil, že kapel tohoto jména je víc. Řekl bych, že tato zpráva se týká jiné kapely ARKONA z Ruska, jejíž pohled na svět je trochu pravicovější.

[Oskar999]

to me taky napadlo, ale ta arkona co davas v odkazu, uz vystupuje pod jinym nazvem. a tady je obsahlejsi zprava (v eng) od Arkony jako Arkony tohodle topicu

[ViceMene]

Jo máš recht nestihl jsem to smazat. Ještě chvilku jsem klikal a zjistil, že tato Arkona opravdu měla 6. února koncert.

[Aladin]

jedna z mych velmi oblibenych kapel, ale sere me, ze kdyz jedou koncerty po Cesky republice, tak jedou Morava, Morava, Brutal vsechno daleko

Já to mam na Brutal blízko, ale asi by mě rodiče nepustili

[Nelya]

Arkona mi posledni dobou hodne hraje, i presto, ze mi zpocatku byla rustina dost nesympaticka ... kazdopadne Masha je uzasna, zveda kapelu o nekolik stupnu vzhuru...A nejlepsi song? Rus - live

[Lord Nazgul]

Je to divný. Ruskíé kapely mám rád, opravdu. Mám velmi rád i tenhle žánr. Ale Arkonu doopravdy rád nemám... čím to je

[sheVcza]

Masha na FaceBooku zveřejnila datum vydání nové desky Goi, Rode, Goi! (2.11.2009 pro Evropu) a obal:



Jsem na to zvědav!

[BlackMoon]

Ó! Óóó! Ježiši teším sa! Minulá bola excelentná

[Wulfrik]

Ze začátku jsem Arkonu odmítal a přehlížel ale poté co jsem viděl klípek Pokrovi Nebesnogo Startsa který mě posadil na zadek , musel jsem opět přehodnotit názor.Stejně mi ale pořád nejde do hlavy že tak křehká slečna má v sobě tolik elánu .Perfektní ženský growling a hodně mě taky oslovily dudy které sem padnou jak prdel na nočník.Na nové album se velmi těším

[sheVcza]

Taaak Masha na FB sdělila podrobné informace o Goi, Rode, Goi!, které bude krom jiného obsahovat řadu hostů z kapel , , , , a z dalších, viz info níže.
Začínám se na tu desku čím dál víc těšit!

Goi, Rode, Goi!

Upon returning from a sea voyage, the warriors brave out a storm in the night which leads to a shipwreck on the reef. Wounded and freezing, the crew disembarks onto a small rocky island hoping to survive, but when they realize that they will not last out till morning, they pray to Wind-Stribog to bring the message about their death to their families and relatives. Perishing, the warriors thank Rod for the life they have been given.

“Not fallen victim to the surging water,
In the mortal fight with the wind,
Spreading hands to the skies,
You are waiting for Rod to answer.”

On the Unknown Trail

This song describes a man who perceives the Faith of ancestors as a dark evil cult. He performs dark rituals not realizing that he is appealing to a completely different form of power, alien to us. He soon falls mad, his mind prisoned by it.

“You are a child of false god
You roam the prison of vanity
The road to the arch Belief
You’re looking for is unseen.”

The Wonder

A young woman sees a dream which forebodes the suffering of her homeland and the death of her folk. Rising at the crack of dawn, she invokes the Sun to scorch all the filth that is drawing near her land. This song praises the strength of united people who can defend the Motherland from any disaster in their cohesion.

“Oi, my wonder
Oi, the restless
Oi, my soul
Is filled with sorrow.
Oi, we are dying
No mark leaves my foot
But no disaster I see
While we are standing our ground.”

In My Land

This is a song about a warrior who leaves his motherland to seek happiness in other countries. He meets foreign folk and asks them what their happiness is about. And they tell him that their happiness is their beautiful land, traditions, folk, home, their children, and Gods. After a long journey, the warrior returns back to his native land to find peace and happiness there.

“In the chains of oblivion
Of the coming force of joy
You will cry
“Here is my land!”

In Chains of Ancient Mystery

Standing near the grave of my ancestors, I swear to keep my Motherland safe and revive our ancient native traditions. Looking at the sky, I ask it to tell me about the heritage of the ancestry so I can bring it to life.

“What do the forgotten stones know?
What is hiding in them, alien to the living?
Wandering in chains of ancient mystery,
You invoke them with your thought.”

Yarilo

The song is about the celebration dedicated to the young Slavonic god of the spring sun called Yarilo. It is celebrated at the end of April by Slavic folks. Yarilo is believed to warm and fertilize the soil, so the first grass starts growing.

“Oi Yarilo, Yarilo, Yarilo!
The gloomy sky revealed you again
Goi, you, the young god!
Goi, we are invoking you!
Our hearts are blooming,
We praise you in our song.”

Faces of Immortal Gods

The song describes a human who has lost his reason for being. With his spirit in vexation, he stands on a crossroad, fearing death and having a wish to flee from the reality. Only the Faith can give him the will to live on.

“With life praying to your native shrines
You are looking into nowhere, in the mist of your dreams
And in this oblivion of the soul, in grey vain life
Will revive in your memory the faces of immortal Gods.”

Kolo of Nav

The song reflects the journey of the soul of a warrior fallen on a battlefield. Hovering above the ground, it sees the body, which was its home once, getting buried into the mound. The soul prays to the wind to let the gathered relatives know that it is near them.

“I see the fire flashes again
Souls of my family will perceive me.
In sore tears the memory is alive
Stribog will sing my song to them.”

The Memory

It is a prayer to Gods, asking them to return the forgotten past and the Faith of ancestors to us.

“Hey, get awake
The forgotten memory
Return to us the truth
Which has been hidden from people.”

Kupalets

A praising song. Kupalets is the ritual fire kindled for the Kupala celebration, on the day of the summer solstice.

“Oi flare, flare brightly
I invoke with my voice
Erect the bright Kolo
From the ground into the sky.”

Arkona

Arkona was once a fortress and the spiritual center of Baltic Slavonic tribes. It was destroyed by Christians in 1168. For us, as for many other Rodnovers, Arkona is the symbol of the lost but unforgotten lore which has been sleeping through the centuries, awaiting for its revival.

“Below the arch of skies
Arkona is sleeping in ruins
Soon the destroyed land will revive
And the fortress of Yar Kon
Will rise from the ashes.”

Sullen Sky, Lurid Clouds

A young woman receives a message saying that her husband fell in battle. Suffering from loneliness and desperation, she drowns herself in a river.

“Forgive me, my life
I leave, bowing to you
I see my dearest’s face in the sky
Sinking in the quick water.”
