It was only when Maria became the crucial third spoke in the wheel that Heilung began to properly take shape. It was scary, but then I let go and I was drawn in.”
“It felt too much: the screams were difficult to listen to. “This was something different,” she says. Maria wasn’t involved at the very beginning, but she witnessed it first- hand. “There was a point where he said, ‘Can’t you sing something?’” He struck a deal with Christopher: the latter would record Kai’s stories and poems and set them to soundscapes in return, Kai would tattoo him (an offer that still hasn’t been taken up). Kai was a storyteller and a poet, and he wanted to send his stories and poems he was reading to friends back home. He grew up in a devoutly Christian household, before embracing paganism in his teens. He had moved from Germany to Denmark in 2010 to pursue his career as a tattooist specialising in Nordic designs. Kai met Christopher and Maria via the Viking re-enactment scene, in which all three were involved. You’d open the door and it was just a fog of cigarette smoke.
The seeds of Heilung were sown in a place just like this, their beginnings literally shrouded in smoke. This is Luna: half poodle, quarter pug, quarter chihuahua. They’re joined occasionally by a small black dog that bounds in front of the camera. Maria, Kai and Christopher are sitting in Heilung’s studio, their beanies and hoodies significantly less forbidding than the antlers and robes they wear onstage. On this particular plane, it’s a chilly December evening and we’re speaking via the distinctly 21st century medium of Skype. Their songs sound like transmissions from other planes (if Kai, who claims to travel between worlds, is to be believed, then they sometimes are). The two albums they have made to date, 2015’s Ofnir and 2019’s Futha, pulse with mind-altering tribal rhythms and wordless exhortations to long-gone gods – “amplified history”, they call it. Their live performances aren’t so much gigs as communal rituals, complete with warriors, bonfires and rune-casting. Heilung have materialised in metal’s collective consciousness like a spirit, despite possessing few of the traditional characteristics of a metal band. That experiment has become something else entirely. “Really it was just an experiment for the sake of playing around with this dark material that Kai came up with.” “I thought it would be a small niche little thing,” says Maria. Their expectations back then were minimal. And you have to feed it bigger and bigger pieces of meat to keep it happy and stop it eating you.”Ĭhristopher founded Heilung with Kai and Norwegian co-vocalist (and Christopher’s partner) Maria Franz in 2014. 2019 35:1042-1052.Christopher Juul, Heilung’s Danish-born producer and multi-instrumentalist, likens his band’s unexpected upwards trajectory to “a beast that is getting bigger and bigger.
