Espectáculo vikingo en Puy du Fou, Francia



Puy du Fou es un parque temático francés donde se representan espectáculos históricos, entre ellos uno dedicado a los vikingos.

Tiemble frente al ataque de los terribles guerreros del Norte.

Surgiendo de entre unas gigantescas llamas en sus drakkars, los feroces vikingos atacan el tranquilo Fuerte del Año Mil construido con techos de paja.

Al pie de un torreón de 22 metros, el combate causa estragos con una avalancha de efectos especiales.

The Path to Valhalla


The Path to Valhalla

by Zergananda (Russia)


Song inspired by Vikings (TV) 

The seer is speaking with his gods
He will see what the future will become
In his vision all in the way will fall 
Before the mighty warriors

The ritual of blood is a gift
To the spirits of the sea
They will help us reach
The place of our glory

Through the sea
Through fire
Through honorable death in fighting
We will come to the sacred land

Nothing stops us
Nothing breaks us
Our father awaits us
In the golden halls of Valhalla

Our women are shield maidens
With the power of Freya
They are fighting like the bravest
Side by side with our men

We can cross the ocean
Our ships are strong
Thor has blessed us with the thunder
Of the distant storm

Our enemies are close 
They are praying to their god
I can see
The fear in their eyes

He can’t help them in this battle
Because Odin,
Our father,
Stays on our side

Through the sea
Through fire
Through honorable death in fighting
We will come to the sacred land

Nothing stops us
Nothing breaks us
Our father awaits us
In the golden halls of Valhalla

I smell blood around
Valkyries are flying in the sky
The axes are pulling my hands to the ground
But I will continue to fight!

My fate belongs to the gods
Before the day I die
I must deserve the right
To join my fellow brothers

Through the sea
Through fire
Through honorable death in fighting
We will come to the sacred land

Nothing stops us
Nothing breaks us
Our father awaits us
In the golden halls of Valhalla!

Vítor González / Art Of The North Crowdfunding 

finalizado



El ilustrador Vitor González, desde Asturias, nos propone un crowfunding para publicar un libro con buen formato de diseños celtas, sajones y vikingos enfocados a la actual estética del tatuaje.

Arte tribal europeo abstracto y simbólico desplazado por el aquella otra mirada hacia el pasado greco-romano que acabó imponiéndose por todo el continente, manteniendo el viejo concepto bárbaro/civilizado.


¿Quieres ser parte de este proyecto?
Solo tienes que pagar el libro por adelantado
