Bathory is one of the father of Modern black metal. And viking metal . But not the first black metal band . There re others factors but Venom was the first black metal band . Hellhammer/Celtic frost , Bulldozer were there at the same time than Bathory...
@@Nissardpertugiu Bathory not appears on empty place, but Under The Sign Of The Black Mark is first black metal album and Hammerheart is first viking metal album. I greatly pespect Venom, but they are more rock-n-roll-Motorhead-style-band than black metal
@@mannequin7775 Bathory did the modern black metal . As norway bands would make . Thats don't mean that Venom isnt black metal The title track , Don't burn the witch , Rip ride , countess bathory ... its more than motörhead color in it ( in fact i found a lot.more sabbath , Priest and deep Purple in the roots of riffs like Sacrifice etc.. ) but it laid the foundation for black metal. As Bloodlust etc .. Or extreme in general . Bathory did its thing but they borrowed from Venom too for the concept . Your saying is like Judas priest isnt metal anymore since Slayer appeared ( by the way Slayer would never be without Venom , As Sodom ...) I don't know ... Its a bit like . Its not because there re many steps , that it have to devalue the steps before as non revelant .
I knew he was young, but I tend to forget he was that young. Hell, I just recently turned 39, so while I'm doing pretty well for myself, I couldn't imagine producing everything he did and having the impact that he had with even less life than I've had.
Quorthon.....One of(if not the) the Most influential Men in Extreme Metal History....The Pioneer that Lead to 2 very prominent sub genre's of Metal that with Hold Many more Legendary bands who he influenced(Emperor, Dissection, Amon Amrath, etc...)
Bathory was very much a one man band. Tomas Forsberg alias Quorton wrote, sang and played most of the music and produced it with help from his father with a pretty low budget. Some shorter periods of time Bathory had others in the "band" to play.
In the beginning of the 80s this swedish band was one of the early pioners of black metal along with Venom and Metcyful Fate. After some early records with crappy sound they moved away from the black metal genre Into viking metal. IMO their masterpiece are the album Hammerheart. The vocalist/songwriter and guitarist behind this band died from heartattack many years ägo. RIP mr Forsberg
Quorthon was a master of his genres of music, he created Viking metal, blood fire death was more or less his first venture into viking metal(1988). Quorthon played every instrument in bathory he was apart of bathory from its inception in 1983 until his sudden death in 2004.
You just forgot to mention that Quorthon was 17 years old when recording this album and created 2 kind of music. Black metal (at 14 years old) and epic/viking with this one)
So, and this is no secret, Quorthon liked MANOWAR a lot and that can be seen in the lyrics here. Some lines even copied from MANOWAR - The Sign of the Hammer album. Great stuff. bathory was great. Really great.
Hailing from Denmark. I have to comment this. For my Bathory was the former of BLACK METAL ! Bands like Sodom or Celtic Frost was also in the 1. wave when bands like Venom not was the real deal ! I was used to tape the first albums before we went into the woods to hears the new Bathory. When I mean tape it is meaning that no one heard the new album before we were gathering deep in the woods !! We also started to hear the first album and so on. I remember when we with fire, alcohol, cannabis and the right clothes like cutter heard this album after the hillarious album "Under the sign of the black mark" . I love raw black metal but I could consume the shift to viking metal ! Bathory is with the black metal and the viking metal STILL my favorite : Hail the hordes ! We have to create !
I kinda like how you can see the transition bathory makes. They started off heavily influenced by venoms album, black metal, and for a while stuck with that but slowly attained their own sound and started creating their style sound and concepts.
Man, I was just 14 when I got this album in 1989 (This was released 1988). It still sound so fresh. It's not the perfect record (vinyl), but masterpiece still.
This vocalist sounds like Johnny Rotten from The Sex Pistols you know if he sang metal instead of punk xD lol Vocalists vocal cords are screaming, "help ussss!" Lmao xD
"the guitar player is killing it"
composer: quorthon
guitar (both them): quorthon
vocals: quorthon
synth: quorthon
Quorthon was a master of his field, it’s a-shame he’s gone.
The birth of Viking Metal!
Bathory is first black metal and first viking metal band. Try Enter the Eternal Fire for black and One Rode to Asa Bay for viking.
Bathory is one of the father of Modern black metal.
And viking metal .
But not the first black metal band .
There re others factors but Venom was the first black metal band .
Hellhammer/Celtic frost , Bulldozer were there at the same time than Bathory...

@@Nissardpertugiu OK. So, The Beatles also metal band because they have Helter Scelter ;)
Bathory, the blueprint of Black Metal. RiP Quorthon
Holy crap, ancient swedish black metal. Quorthon - heart defect at only 38 :(
Demon producer Jonas Åkerlund played drums for a year......
I knew he was young, but I tend to forget he was that young. Hell, I just recently turned 39, so while I'm doing pretty well for myself, I couldn't imagine producing everything he did and having the impact that he had with even less life than I've had.
You can't even comprehend the masterpiece you are listening to
Fucking posers
Big respect for King Quorthon...without him metal not be complete..

Finaly the master Bathory 👊🏼

The Father of a music genre
Quorthon was a master of his genres of music, he created Viking metal, blood fire death was more or less his first venture into viking metal(1988). Quorthon played every instrument in bathory he was apart of bathory from its inception in 1983 until his sudden death in 2004.
Bathory - Woman of Dark Desires next!
Swedens finest

Histórica banda...
You just forgot to mention that Quorthon was 17 years old when recording this album and created 2 kind of music. Black metal (at 14 years old) and epic/viking with this one)
No he wasn't. He was 22.
Classic!
This is their first experience listening to good music
RIP Quarthon!
Ring of gold is a classic
Amazing band, pretty much Quorthon invented black metal and viking metal, try the songs Equimanthorn and Baptized in fire and ice
Black metal :)
So, and this is no secret, Quorthon liked MANOWAR a lot and that can be seen in the lyrics here. Some lines even copied from MANOWAR - The Sign of the Hammer album. Great stuff. bathory was great. Really great.
Quorthon - "He who brought the legends
And became a god himself"
Black Metal rules !!!!!!!! next Emperor live 2006 with strenght i ll burn :-) !!!!!!

Great reaction! great band, R.I.P Quorthon...Also I love to see Huginn and Muninn in the album cover :)

Remember that Bathory mostly was a one man band !! Hail Quorthon and rip 1966 - 2004 - See you in Valhalla !
22 Acacia avenue, Beast over Hammersmith, "Beast On The Road" en 1982 - Of His Majesty Iron Maiden, thank you.
:o Bathory \o/
Incredible what he created almost all by himself, pure genius. I would recommend the beautiful song Shores In Flames, it's long but it's fire!

from sweden , he died so young

@@Fr0st-Artworks That makes sense lol
Anaal nathrakh Endarkenment
you look like you are listening to some popular boy band and not one of the founders of black metal and viking metal
2:14 lol
Hey friends
Do bathory blood and iron
No synthesizers were used on the album...
Actually I think synthesizrs was used. Hear thise choir sounding background.
Loco, aguante el quorton
We need more black metal here.
This is a band, no Shitallica
You should react to In nomine satanas too
I would say that's a choir or choir pad...female and a hint of male in there I think.
Woodwomen Bathory
bloooooooooooooooooooood!
Pt padre del black y viking y hasta atmosferico
Y'all should react to Windowpane by Opeth!
This isnt the first time they listen to bathory? Or are they pretending its thr first time
React to... "Black Crow On A Tombstone" by Satryicon? 🖤💀😈💀🖤
I got your reaction. IT SUCKS. SATYRICON WAS ALWAYS MEDIOCRE AND WIMPED OUT VERY QUICKLY ONCE THE MATRIX CAME OUT.
React asphyx ~ asphyx (forgotten war)
