========= Berserker LYRICS ==========
Far from the north, as they came down the river
Ships moving forth, they descended on York
Threat to the crown, the invasion was met from the south
March through the town, onto the bridge
1, 2, 3, 4, all around him they’re falling
5, 6, 7, 8, 40 facing the axe
Fighting, halls of Valhalla waiting, never surrender
Slay them, berserker rage and mayhem, over the river
He’s fighting, halls of Valhalla waiting, never surrender
Slay them, facing the charge alone
Blood they will bring, form a shield wall to face them
Death of a king, make a stand for revenge
Heeding the call, as the fallen in battle remain
Enter the hall, to the home of the slain
On that day in September
As the end of an era draws near
Will the future remember
How it ended, a Berserker pierced by a spear
========= Historic Fact ==========
Berserkers were fearsome Norse warriors, remembered for their ferocity and intensity in battle. Old Norse accounts associate them with Odin and describe them entering a frenzied state called berserksgangr. In this state, they were said to fight with extraordinary fury, seeming almost unstoppable to their enemies.
One famous legend from the Battle of Stamford Bridge in 1066 tells of a lone Viking warrior who stood on the bridge and held back the English army. He reportedly killed numerous soldiers before an Englishman struck him from beneath the bridge with a spear. His fall allowed the English forces to cross and press their attack against Harald Hardrada’s army. The battle ended in a decisive English victory and is often seen as marking the end of the Viking Age in England.

Did you expect to see Eric Roberts in our music video? Was the story about the Berserker at the Battle of Stamford Bridge already on your radar before we released this song? Let us know in the comments!
great ending. Sabaton on the back on the back of the jacket.
Sabaton should be mandatory learning for all history classes.
this gives significant archer vibes.
Missed opportunity for Jay and silent bob, lads
Holy shit, Eric Roberts?!
Sabaton songs best history classes!
If only history class actually taught that and not just slavery, the Holocaust, and civil rights movement. Important subjects all, but there's much more history than that.
Англичане как всегда, не могут вести честный бой лицом к лицу
When you realize it's not 6 warriors on the bridge, but 5 bards and one barbarian.
Son of Kratos and Zangief? 😀
🪓 Que les parece @beastinblackofficial ?
Когда заряд такой, что даже берсеркер бы офигел 😎⚔️!
So thankful you guys haven’t switched to ai for your videos and album covers. Brightens my day.
Couldn't they spend a little bit more on graphics? lol
Астерикс и Обеликс снова в деле!
Is it just me or does this vid give Valheim vibes 😀
If you’re interested, I could offer to create sketches for knives inspired by your songs—free of charge.
Make a song about the boer afrikaners fighting 600 men, woman and children against 20 000 plus zulu impis at the Battle of Bloodriver. That was also an epic battle and a mircale!
NICE <3
Personal request to get a song about Boudicca, one of the coolest figures in history and I'd love to see a song about her, either way brilliant song lads, keep it up
its alright, but i hoped for a cover in the bonus material about this event.
I am now looking forward to the 80s style Saturday morning cartoon where sabaton travels through time and helps out at great battles
I kinda like it… but the beserker spent a long time just standing there. I was kinda expecting a more fast pace battle.
Rest is good though
Very nice indeed sabaton always like your style always different for every music 🎶 video you guys do
Yeah 😎🤘🇲🇽
the only way they could've won was to fight dishonorably.
ooh that's a fun animation style !
