Most people today have heard the historical theory of an advanced progenitor civilization existing prior to the Great Flood. This civilization is usually called Atlantis, although this is not the original name – it was coined by Plato.
However, there was another advanced civilization, existing between Atlantis and modern history. Today it is known as Hyperborea, although this name is also Ancient Greek and not original.
Norse literature – Poetic and Prose Eddas – tells of a great war between two races of gods – the Æsir from Asgard and the Vanir from Vanaheim.
Vedic literature – RigVeda, SamaVeda and Mahabharata – tells of a great battle between the Asuras and the Devas – also two races of deities.
Mesopotamian mythology tells of the god Ashur or Assur, while the highest deity of Zoroastrianism is called Ahura Mazda.
As most myths, these also represent vague memories of distant events – the great struggle between the survivors of Atlantis (aka Assir or Ashur) and the newcomers Hyperboreans (aka Vanir or Aryans).
This struggle ended with the victory of the Hyperboreans, who then built their advanced civilization.
However, their story is sad. Mahabharata is a chronicle of global war between the Solar and Lunar Empires. These two factions of the Vanir destroyed each other with the use of advanced weapons (described as “light and heat” projectiles deployed from “flying chariots”) throwing the planet into stone age (and the beginning of modern history). The North of Russia contains cone-shaped lakes and molten rocks still contaminated by ancient radiation from these battles…
Our song VANAHEIM (as well as the entire EP ‘Warrior Race’) is about Hyperborea and its great, but tragic history.
This video was filmed on 25 April 2020 during our famous lockdown concert and is an excerpt from the DVD ‘LIVE ON EARTH – The Online Lockdown Concert’ which releases on 23rd October 2020 and is available for pre-order now!
If you wish to experience the entire show of 19 songs + bonus ‘Making Of’, be sure to PRE-ORDER it here:
LYRICS
[Verse 1]
I can see the sun never setting
Northern Lights in the polar night,
Tilled earth on the northern pole,
Warm green meadows, clear blue skies…
[Chorus]
Our world is still alive,
Our memory revives,
Our homeland is and will be
Vanaheim!
Spirit of the Warrior Race,
It will rise among their graves
And the ancient might of old
Shall arise, and its knowledge will unfold!
[Verse 2]
Once a great race descended from the sky,
Took the fight, overcame its foes.
Built the Solar and Lunar empires,
Lost itself in the flames of war.
[Chorus]
Our world is still alive,
Our memory revives,
Our homeland is and will be
Vanaheim!
Spirit of the Warrior Race,
It will rise among their graves
And the ancient might of old
Shall arise, and its knowledge will unfold!
[Verse 3]
Over ages the knowledge is passed
From teacher to apprentice
All that’s left from a world
So mighty glorious and old…
But there are those who still
Remember the ages long forgotten
Their immortal minds are here today:
Behold!
[Chorus]
Our world is still alive,
Our memory revives,
Our homeland is and will be
Vanaheim!
Spirit of the Warrior Race,
It will rise among their graves
And the ancient might of old
Shall arise, and its knowledge will unfold!
