Great Swedish Rock band
Great Swedish Rock band

Ultima Thule is a very important band.
Although a bit immature, they are true Nationalists, and I believe they have done more for the cause in Sweden than anyone else.
Their best album is "För fäderneslandet" (For the Fatherland) from 1992. It has sold in more than 100 000 copies!
Thule sold more records than any of todays Swedish commercial rock bands. I honestly believe they are even more popular today, with their MP3s all over the net, and commercial bands producing nothing but crap.
I recently read in the local news paper, that in the year 2002, Ultima Thule's company had a business volume of 3.9 Million SEK, which is about US $500,500 or 420,000 EURO.![]()

There's a good reason.Some of their songs are sentimental and touch deeply listener.Tracks like "Här vill jag leva" and "Bäring nord" make me almost shed tearsOriginally Posted by Julius
Is there a site with English translations for their songs? Especially Fädernesland?
I visited Thule´s official site but found nothing.

I couldn't find the lyrics on the net, but some of the songs have been recorded in English on the albums "Once upon a time..." and "Live in Dresden".
Generally, I think their English songs are quite bad, but I haven't heard the translated songs.
I noticed Ultima Thule has a small English forum with questions about the lyrics: http://www.ultimathule.se/forum/foru...asp?FID=6&PN=1
Här vill jag leva
Här blev jag upplyft på min faders arm.
Här blev jag vaggad trygg i moders famn.
Här nötte jag mina första skor.
Här har jag min syster och min bror.
Här vill jag leva, här vill jag dö.
Här lever jag i frihet.
Här vill jag leva, här vill jag dö.
Här lever jag mitt liv i frihet.
Såg ett ansikte, en döende man.
Lärde mig att lyssna, att älska mitt land.
Livet är ett strövtåg, en öken och en äng.
Det som frös det dog, gör våren grönt igen.
Här vill jag leva, här vill jag dö.
Här lever jag i frihet.
Här vill jag leva, här vill jag dö.
Här lever jag mitt liv i frihet.
Högt flyger örnen, min frihet är att se.
Allt jag älskar, vill jag återge.
Sjöars glitter, kust till fredens hav.
Det är mitt arv, som den gamle gav.
Här vill jag leva, här vill jag dö.
Här lever jag i frihet.
Här vill jag leva, här vill jag dö.
Här lever jag mitt liv i frihet.
Här vill jag leva, här vill jag dö.
Här lever jag i frihet.
Här vill jag leva, här vill jag dö.
Här lever jag mitt liv i frihet.
Can someone translate this?

Oddly when i mentioned Ultima Thule to some swedish and finnish nationalists they labelled them as "fakers" or "traitors".
I wonder if this is related with their public declaration in which they denied to be a nazionalsocialist band..
Maybe some Scandinavian can tell us more..
"E tutti si scandalizzano quando sentono dire: quel tale tipo di mammifero o di uccello ormai è sparito dalla faccia della terra, non lo vedremo più; è una grave perdita. Certo, si tratta di gravissime perdite.
Ma non sarebbe forse più grave se sparisse una comunità umana?? --Bruno Salvadori
Seven pictures of northern European males and seven pictures of northern African males were presented randomly via a computer screen to 82 Italian female undergraduates of the University of Padua, Italy.
Each picture depicted a full frontal face with a neutral facial expression. Participants were asked to classify each picture as either northern Italian or southern Italian.
On average, the seven pictures depicting northern Europeans were classified as northern Italians 81% of the time. The seven pictures depicting northern Africans were classified as southern Italians 83%
of the time.

Those who froze to death make the spring green again
Here I want to live, here I want to die
Here I live in freedom
Here I want to live, here I want to die
Here I live my life in freedom
Eagle flys high, I have freedom to see
Everything I love, I want to show
Glitter of lakes, coast of Baltic sea(?)
This is my legacy which elders gave me
Here I want to live, here I want to die
Here I live in freedom
Here I want to live, here I want to die
Here I live my life in freedom
Here I want to live, here I want to die
Here I live in freedom
