@Berserker_Art17 these r so goated i know them all besides agalloch, ill check it out, thanks for the recomendations
@@luvbits yes bro their good bands try agalloch my favorite song from them is the great cold death of the earth
Racja❤
Kekht arahk: i recommend. Taake, etc. remark: you know kekht Arahk I
Can't believe he's been gone for nearly 20 years man
Drugs and Alcohol ruined his health and life 😢
He died a month before I was born, and I'm very thankful for the music he made.
Yes...big loss. What could have been.
@@RomanZ-zy1ef He died of a congenital heart defect.
@@konstantinathanasiou2227 that's really sad so many famous names died young due to drugs alcohol and fame
Today's the first time I listened to this and I have to say that it's one of the most unusual metal songs I have ever heard and will now on be one of my favorite songs of all time.
@icankillbugs ofc im into metal, what i meant is that it's very unique and comparing it to other metal songs, it sounds quite unusual
@icankillbugs And before I had only heard black metal songs from Bathory and I was surprised that this song was made by them.. Also there are only a few other metal songs that have made me felt emotional, for example Windir - Journey to The End and Wintersun - Death and The Healing
I didn't hear in 90-91 what I hear today, my friend was really into bathory, I was listening to different stuff. Love it now
Royal song, real luxury in metal form. Unrepeatable.
Unusual?
The lyricism of this song alone explains why Quorthon was an absolute genius that left our world too early.
Why did he sing in English though
@@tobiasbradley7229 To gather a wider audience.
It's sad to think about what the world lost with his early death.
@@tobiasbradley7229My guess is to reach a wider audience.
@@tobiasbradley7229 Wild guess on your question is that record companies want it sung in English because there are too many spoiled brats in America that want it sung in English, and that's their major market.
2025
I’m 48. These songs were my teenage years. Reminds me of home. Going to high school hell maybe middle school. 90s lol
Miss you Q
2025
I`m 58, these Record was more the only Music to me, and it is `til today
The progression of Bathory is one of a kind. I favor their black metal days, but man this song is pure.
the first of this kind...

Fuck yes
The origins of Black/Viking Metal. R.I.P. Quarthon!
I prefer Viking metal over black metal
@@superlucasgaming5645Viking metal is a sub genre of black metal
@@superlucasgaming5645but they're kinda the same tbh.
@@Chris-f4n5r Not even sure Viking metal is a genre. Wouldn't Black/Folk metal cover it?
@@Mr.Snrub86this isn't even black metal, it doesn't have the harsh vocals, which makes that genre. Is derived from black metal, but it's their own thing
I can't exactly explain why I cry every time I listen to this song, but it has an incredibly powerful impact - RIP Thomas
I can fully understand your reaction...
💗
Maybe it's because the song is about the demise of the traditional Nordic, figuratively speaking, European culture and its replacement by the Abrahamic Plague, and our heathen souls simply feel it.
Skipped halfway and closed. I cant exactly explain why. (it's trash)
@@restlessnexus and you still and will not do anything close to these guys... great comment.. :)
RIP Thomas “Quorthon” Forsberg (February 17, 1966 - June 3, 2004), aged 38
You will be remembered as a legend.
He is a legend !🍺
Damn he was also born after my birthday
03 de june my birthday 😔
@@JulianoRodrigues-zo5cz Me too dude. My name is also Thomas. Keep the torch up high \m/
All Hail Lord Quorthon.!!
"A man of pride with the Hammer told new God
To build his house on own
And spoke loud of the Gods of their fathers"
EPIC
One of the biggest legends in metal. Pioneered not just one but two genres, and absolutely perfected viking metal. In spite of that, Bathory and Quorthon is unbelievably underrated and rarely mention in the same effect as other musicians in metal who's had much less of an impact because they were more commercial.
R.I.P. master. I remember when you passed. It tore my little heart apart.
Quorthon is king, greetings from Brazil.
Greetings from Czech!
greetings from Brazil 🤘🏻
@@Saulo_14 Greetings from Czech!🫡
Some of the best music you'll ever hear
Indeed 1 road 1 I.
Quorthon dedicated the song One Rode to Asa Bay, about the christianization of Scandinavia, to C. Dean Andersson, who had earlier sent some of his books to Quorthon. The village's name in the song, Asa Bay, comes from pseudonym Asa Drake which Andersson used in some of his books.
The holy Inquisition was nothing but "holy"
The holy inquisition was anything but holy.
@@themorningnevercame8618
Two separate things
The Inquisition was led by Spain and was mostly a thing in Hispanic America and Spain itself and the last Catholic nations of Europe, by that time the North was already protestant
Pagan North was a couple centuries in the past already
It was slaughter for the souls
Viking spread their vision with sword, they were heroes. When they lost to stronger they whining and acting as victims.
Wow last time i listened to this was around 2006.
Only BATHORY's music can truly transport us to the Viking age
He's one of those musical geniuses that just couldn't be contained.
_People of Asa land_
_It's only just begun..._
Mother nature knows who are worth to enjoy it,
Over 3 Million now and counting. The Old Hordes have grown.
Thank You for all Your work . R.I.P. , Thomas.
who did you donate to? maybe his father? who runs this channel? is it just an automatically generated channel?
Edit: His father, Boss, who was also his producer and i think made the In Memory Of Quorthon albums died in 2017. So it's not him.
@@thephoenixking3242 Hello from Czech, Look, find out, Qurthon's memory must be kept alive, it's part of getting to know Thomas better - and I'm forever in his debt, his music and words saved my life so many times when I was really bad and lying in the hospital hooked up to machines and I had a tube in my throat and the machines were breathing for me, this is the way to Asa Bay. Rushing into battle every day, with Bathory's music at full volume !
@@midianpoet i just asked who got your money bro
It's possible that the owner of Bathory's record also holds this TH-cam account, if not Quorthon's family or close friends @@thephoenixking3242
Yes, listen every album, every song have own story behind! Thomas was unique person. Greetings from Czech @@Tray_1_owen
Im going to get so tired and listen to Blood on Ice while falling asleep.
try listening at: DEATH METAL VS PINK FLOYD
i have never heard a musician who has achieved so much with little. i mean - the guitars are cheap, the bass is cheap, the drumcomputer is cheap and he only hits sometimes the right tone with his vocals. but... all together his work, not only this song, is unique! this guy was a genius! RIP Quorthon, i love you...
Pure heavy metal solo🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Hail BATHORY🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
One of the best songs ever made, amen.
Ladies and germs, stand up for our national anthem
The first time I heard this song, I was so blown away that I can barely describe it. Its perfect, tells a fantastic story and takes you on a journey.
Same I never thought he could sing like that
Like when I first heard shores in flames. His guitar work is 2nd to none. Hendrix eat your heart out
Lyrics
One man rode the way through the woods
Down to Asa bay
Where dragon ships had sailed to sea
More times than one could say
To see with own eyes the wonder
People told of from man to man
The God of all almightyness
Had arrived from a foreign land
The rumors told of a man
Who had come from the other side the seas
Carrying gold cross around neck in chain
And spoke in strange tongue of peace
He had come with strange men in armor
Dressed in purple shirts and lace
Smelling not of beer but flowers
And with no hair in face
And the bold man carrying cross
Had told all one of Asa bay
The God of all man woman child had come
To them all save
And to thank Lord of Heaven
One should build to God a house
And to save one's soul from Hell
One should be baptized and say vows
A man of pride with the Hammer told new God
To build his house on own
And spoke loud of the Gods of their fathers
Not too long time gone
The rumors said the man with a beard like fire
And the Hammer in chain
By men in armor silenced was and by
Their swords was slain
Those who did not pay the one coin
Of four to man of new God
Whipped was twenty and put in chains then locked
By their neck to the log (To the log)
And so all of Asa bay did build
A house of the cross
Every hour of daylight they did sweat
Limbs ached because faith does cost
And on the day two hundred
There it stood white to the sky
The house of the God of the cross
Big enough to take two dragon ships inside
And all of Asa bay did watch
The wonder raise to the sky
Now must the God of the cross be pleased
And satisfied
Just outside the circle of the crowd
One old man did stand
He looked across the waters
And blotted the sun out of his eyes with one hand
And his old eyes could almost see
The dragon ships set sail
And his old ears could almost hear
Men of great numbers call out Oden's hail
And though he did know already
Though he turned face towards sky
And whispered silent words forgotten
Spoken only way up high
Now this house of a foreign God does stand
Now must they leave us alone
Still he heard from somewhere in the woods
Old crow of wisdom say
People of Asa land, it's only just begun
Gracias estaba buscando esa letra hace tiempo
Beautiful , Thank You so much Mariana
Thank you so much
Gracias Mariana.
bathorys bst song imo
Greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷🤘🏻
Quorton was miles ahead of his time , old folklore tales through music
Greetings from the Czech Republic 🔥🤘Quorthon R.l.P.
Man... Every time I hear this song, it makes tears come to my eyes... Damn... Quorthon was and continues to be one of the greatest Geniuses in Black Metal, and even in music... I'm Brazilian, and from here I send greetings to all Nordic brothers!!!
You are not the only one, we will not forget the effort made by Quorthon
@@brodifacoum88 For sure! We will never forget!!! Quorthon will be eternal among us! Hail Quorthon, Hail Bathory!!!
I am proud to know that there are people in this world who have a heightened sensitivity and truly live this music, and are truly engulfed by this music.@@LordArquimes
It's an immense honor for me to read your comment, this song really expresses an emotion in an inexplicable way, everything about it, Quorthon's voice, the drums being played in an overwhelming way, the guitars, the destroying double bass, the organ generating a feeling of Gregorian music, all of this combined with the lyrics of the song, which tells a story in a poetic way, makes us feel touched by it, by the message it emits... Still the video bringing all this to light... The clip was very well done, for me it's one of the best clips ever made, if not the best, which is totally in line with the lyrics of the song, man, that's amazing, it only took a genius to achieve that...And Quorthon, It was this genius... There are some idiots who criticize Black Metal, and in turn even Viking Metal, which has its roots in Black, but there is the answer for these people, that Black Metal is simply FORMIDABLE. I'm sorry that my words were long, I'm also immensely honored to know that you are also the person who has such sensitivity emitted by this song, rest assured, there are more people like us, and that also makes me immensely grateful!!! Hail my Brother!!!
@@LordArquimes Everything is fine, and for me it is a real honor to read your comment and to think that there are people who have such an increased sensitivity, hail my brother!
The look on that old man's face...gets me every time.
This song makes me happy and sad at the same time.
As all good metal will.
super utwór greetings crom Poland 🎉
One of the greatest song of Quorthon. Metal classic.
Bathory makes you Proud to be Alive.
This Music should back Legacy to Europe
Mislim da to uopste nije potrebno, mada, bilo bi lepo. Quorthon je bio dovoljan i "samom sebi"
I'm glad I met this genius 🖤🤘 R.I.P Thomas! Hail Bathory
Bathory 🤘🔥
OdIINNNN!!!! Saludos desde España Grande Bathory . Quorthon nos vemos en Valhalla!!!!
Qorton was a sign for Wagnerest Musichans. Allfather will keep you well.
R.I.P. and live forever.
See you in final battle...
Let me tell you one, that a witty gothmetal girl told me at a festival : (Voice near the gates of Valhalla)- ''Hail Quorthon and welcome to Valhalla! We have been expecting you...by the way, did you bring copies of the first album?''
These guitar solos always create such an incredible atmospheric sound it is out of this world.
People of Asa land, it's only just begun...
33 Years old and one of the best songs - hail quorthon !!
One dude, before the high-tech music era did all of this.. 18 albums, didn't live to 40 years of age..that's pretty prolific and impressive for this genre.
One of the goats
@@turalmirzaliev1232 literally "goats" lmao
*-To be honest, after almost 20 years of his departure and generating that impact on Metal, hearing this Great Song still makes my hair stand on end because of the lyrics, the story and the that guitar solo that in my opinion is one of the most underrated, rest in peace master your legacy will persist forever.*
Hail Quorthon, such a musical gem.
Todavía Me Sigo Preguntando, ¿Cómo Es Que Esta Canción Nunca Se Convirtió En Un Éxito Mundial? Considero Qué Al Nivel De Composición, Producción, y Grabación, La Canción Está Excelente.
People like junk
One of the greatests songs ever written.
Viking and Folk metal at it's best, period!!!
Пробирает до души!
Call me crazy... but I think it's too short. I could listen to this song forever.
my toilet is manufactured by "glacier bay", it always reminds me of this song, in a good way
😂😂😂
Quorthon estava muito além do metal, verdadeiro compositor e artista! Sua obra perdura eternamente
Masterful story-craft and historical world-building. And I will never, EVER tire of the call of OOOHS at 1:59.
Best Bathory song by far. Hail Quorthon
This please my soul and heart. Hail
WINDIR and BATHORY the best metal bands ever!
Maybe the best song of all time. The mood, the lyrics, the melody, just perfect.
Yes and Summoning-Land of the Dead
Shores in flames.....
Valhala listen to me , let Quorthon know that noone could ever replace him and noone will ever will.
together with evil Chuck schuldiner they are the biggest legends and true geniuses that died way too young they will never be forgotten hail too quorthon and Chuck schuldiner
Very disrespectful of you. Shame.
@@AFXSnares in what way have i been disrespectful????
@@AFXSnares why is that they are both true legends and geniuses in there own right that's what i ment in my reaction so i still don't see why that's disrespectful comparing Chuck whit quorthon they are both true and legendary musicians it don't have any thing to do with disrespect i respect both geniuses equally they made both great music and death and bathory together with hellhammer are my most favorite bands in the world
@Cultöerectus Schuldiner is a German-Jewish name. Obviously. As if Chuck's religious background even mattered. There are a ton of Jews in hard rock and metal bands including Rush, Anvil, Kiss, Van Halen, Manowar, Testament, Aerosmith, Warlord, Type O Negative, Anthrax, Nuclear Assault, Megadeth, Dream Theater, Blue Oyster Cult, Disturbed, Killswitch Engage, The Dillinger Escape Plan, etc..
@@AFXSnares Chuck is not a Jew if it even matters
That Song, the Sound ,that Feeling....indescribable!
best song ever. always.
Оne man but whole musical legend. Now he is in the halls of Odin with great ancestors.
Not my younger brother showing me Bathory years ago when he was like 14 ?! The fact that I’m the one who got him into metal music !! and it was the best discovery ever !
Forever Quorthon
Masterpiece...🤘🏻💪🏻
First wave of Black Metal, inventor of Viking Metal...
Hail Quorthorn, Hail Bathory 👊🏻
I still have goosebumps everytime I listen to that great song.
I may be old now. But I still know about the best Musik 😁
High up the horns 🤘🏻
try listening at: DEATH METAL VS PINK FLOYD thanks
One of the most moving pieces of music in all of metal, for my money. Bathory’s epic run of viking albums is something extraordinary.
Master Quorthon. Rest in Valhalla friend
August 5, 2024. WE!! Norway! Denmark! Sweden! Were fierce in the old times! Even now, the World trembles at the word "Viking"!!
Hail Quorthon🤘 Hammerheart and Twilight of the Gods changed my life
This is what i living for bathory
Quorthon a poet, a man, a myth and a legend
What an epic song.
Long live Quorthon!
He's dead
@@empireofdirt9141You never know 😉
Its only, just begun. 😢
Probably the best song of all times
Valhalla or Bond of Blood beat it for me but still heavenly
@@POOPGOD999 they're all equally awesome. And enter the eternal fire!
Классику ни куда не денешь.Базара нема -суперкруто!
It has happened again... in a different guise. All over Europe.
Bathory, banda única! Magnífica, e inesquecível, viva ao Black Metal! ❤
this alsmot made me cry because of how good this is, you could feel quorthons emotions from the way he sings
1 million views!! damn i still remember the old video with way more views :/
What happened to the old video?
me too :(
@@denisn8336 just got taken down, This offical channel is new, it was made in 2021 I think before that it was only unofficial uploads of bathory.
Larga Vida Al Viking Metal 🗡️⚔️🏹🛡️
As for me, it is one of greatest metal songs.
Rest in peace, Quorthon! \m/
This song reminds me of me and my mates all going out on bikes runs all summer lmfao great memories 😂😂
REST IN VALHALLA BROTHER!!!

Acompanho bathory desde que me entendo por gente, muito bom
Hard as swedish steel👊
Wow, just wow! Poland loves Bathory
Czech too !
Romania too!!
Клип и композиция просто супер. 👍👍👍👍
This is a fucking masterpiece. RIP Quorthon. Hope you are having fun there in Valhalla.
Isso é uma obra de arte absoluta do Heavy Metal. Quorthon era um musicista muito acima da média, ainda mais para o gênero que ele cantava. Que vocal lindo, que instrumental bem trabalhada, que atmosfera épica e fria como o inverno. Uma pena esse gênio ter nos deixado.
Viking metal, not heavy
@@identifierat digo no sentido geral.
zajebisty kawałek ... pozdro from poland
Finally official.
Hail Quorthon!!
You are Immortal!!
This is my road to black and death metal.
This isn’t black metal it’s Viking metal
Legend Bathory!!
Love this band from the First Album to Eternity!!!
RIP Quorthon!!!
Forever in my Heart!!!
