The chanting is a variation of the Gregorian chant which is the central tradition of Western plainchant, a form of monophonic, unaccompanied sacred song used by the Roman Catholic Church.

The chant itself "Pie Iesu Domine. Dona eis Requiem" is a phrase from the Catholic funeral mass and is Latin for "Merciful Lord Jesus. Grant them rest."

It's called Medieval Headbanging, the inevitable results of which produced the overused English term "bloody". The modern day heavy metal band "Monty and the Pythons" are once again trying to reintroduce Medieval Headbanging into the modern day music culture.

They are called Gregorian chants (but people don't really whack themselves over the heads with boards--lol).

Well, it's mimicking a type of Gregorian chant, but they don't really whack their heads with boards, of course.
