@@joebenson528 shows what you know lol quorthon wasn’t always alone. he had a real dummer before he switched over to drum machine lol don’t make yourself look dumb , bud.
The riffs in this are some of the most badass I think that's ever been recorded. But yeah, Bathory kind of set the standard of having fuzzy buzzsaw recordings, but they always had great songwriting.
I'm 60 years old and have loved metal since I was a kid (Black Sabbath especially). I had never heard of this band, but now it has reinvigorated my thirst for metal. Thank you for providing me with another few years of great music, as I will be listening to all I can of their catalog
Bathory - “Enter the Eternal Fire” (black metal) + “Twilight of the Gods” (super epic Viking Metal). Dom Dracul’s cover of Bathory’s “You Don’t Move Me” is rad, also.
This album can actually be pointed as the one that started the shift of the black metal genre to the viking metal. Bathory is a vastly variable band when you listen to different albums. Put this one ("Blood Fire Death") next to "Twilight of the Gods" and I am pretty sure you'll not recognize it's the same band. BTW the final (title) track on this album is an epic masterpiece.
Fuck yeah! ✊ After this album, they moved into/pioneered Viking Metal, of which there are some elements here. Singer/guitarist is Quorthon, who was also the only instrumentalist on lot of stuff. His dad, “Boss,” produced and founded this record label.
I’m going to keep it honest and sincere being a person of color who’s liked metal for half of his life I’m 25 so I’ve missed a lot seeing stuff like this on YT makes me beyond fucking happy. Your analysis of this was extremely articulate and amazing. Also I don’t usually bother with suggestions but please listen to Born For Burning 🔥 that’s one of my favorites after this track.
I think this song.Shores in flames..has 1 of the best solos ever.im 51..been into.metal pretty much my entire life .since kiss.iron maiden run to the hills was released.etc..I bought each bathory l.p. when released.from self titled in 84.fkn luv bathory..under the sign..I've been playing it couple times a week to this day...fkn masterpiece .and I have plenty of patience teaching these young fks that new metal etc..Will never be Quarthon or even fkn close.he changed many aspects of metal.for the extreme🤘🤘🤘🤘
The main guy once said "if I was an Italian, I'd make songs about The Roman Empire"; but he was Swedish, thus the Viking stuff (after the earliest "Satanist" stuff).
@Morbid Angel is better than Death Blood Fire Death is not Black Metal. Viking Metal is certainly an offshot of Black Metal but is a subgenre with it's own specific. For Viking metal i mean stuff like Enslaved not the Amon Amarth shit of course. With Hammerheart Bathory developed their Viking metal style in a more epic (and less brutal) way.
@Morbid Angel is better than Death read well my post above, i agree with you that Viking metal is an offspring of Black Metal, of course the riffs are similar but if you listen to the first three Bathory album (pure Black Metal) you will find out the difference between black and viking
@Morbid Angel is better than Death As i told you before Hammerheart is a turn to a more epic style of Viking Metal. About the riffs on bfd i repeat that are heavly influenced by BM but is not the same sport. Please listen to; Bathory, The Return and Under The Sign Of The Black Mark and you will understand what i mean.
Thank you. Real reactions. Try "The Lake" from Bathory. He created black metal at 14 years old and epic/viking metal at 17 years old (this album). May he Rest In Peace
Love the enthusiasm! Just wanted to say Big Q was born in Feb of 66 and formed Bathory in March of 83 when he was 17. This album is from 88, when he was 23. Still very impressive though!
If a black/viking metal song evokes the feeling that you're trudging along in an ancient boat in the midst of a long ass voyage at sea, then it's been a well crafted song. As is heard here. Great job dude, glad to see you check it out!
Actually, I don't like reaction videos because many react to music from those who have no idea! but you do it well and you try to understand the music. Good Job!!
@@TheAdventuresofTNT Black metal is a difficult subject but one of the most interesting genres in the metal universe. Actually only the 1st and 2nd waves are important because most of the music has happened there and the foundation stones have been laid.
How's about listen to all the albums, ok, yes, im biast, they are my favourite band, but ive been listening to them since the 80s. And they still make the hair on my arms stand on end. That takes a lot after so many decades for some one like me.
Quorthon was quite the troll. He told a reporter his real name was something in a different language. When translated it was some kind of sexual act but the reporter included it in the interview without confirming it. Might have gotten something wrong in this but the general idea of it made me laugh.
Quorthon is uniqe and above all,Blood Fire Death is masterpiece album..and your reaction is simply..enjoying in music and give real describe of feelings...welcome in Bathory opus...
Some more black metal for you Ninkharsag- the dread March of solemn gods Fiat Knox- The archive of nightmares Mephorash- Chalice of Thagirion Baptism- Grim arts of Melancholy
The crazy thing about this track to me is, despite the pretty terrible mix quality I have yet to find a cover that can even hold a torch to the original.
You should check out some songs from Watain. They covered this song, but they have MANY great songs. Also, I just discovered BAEST. Another amazing band!!!
Man my fav song is in nomine satanas but this song is a masterpiece I usually listen to 1 or 2 song of the band yeah metalheads can call me a poser but damn ❤ bathory legends
To get the idea of the early sounds (keeping this list short), Venom's black metal, Sodom's Persecution Mania and Celtic Frost's Morbid Tales. And to get the idea what it turned in to: Mayhem - De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas, Burzum (a solo by not your friendliest person) - Det Som Engag Var and Darkthrone - A Blaze in The northern sky. Venom is the originator of black metal and thrash metal, you can hear their influence in bands like Carnivore or Impaled Nazarene. They can also be described as Metal Punk and that thing is also present with the other early black metal bands. And Japan has a huge Metal Punk scene. Some black metal bands go for that sound more than the more modern stuff. And I don't even consider the third wave black metal to be really black metal. For a kickass black metal song, try Mysticum - LSD.
To think I first listen to Bathory because somewhere I read that Amon Amarth was soft compared to this. Love this shit, quorton you fucking genius, wrote and played every instrument RIP
It's a concept album,about the whole war/series of battles, I belive the Nords fighting to keep their religion again the flood of the Christians. At least that's the first interpretation i got when i first sat down with it years and years ago. I could be wrong about the details and particulars but point being its a concept album. Each song has to do with the different stages of the war/battles and mental preparation for the invasion is what you listened to in this reaction, then it gets to more detail of the warriors meeting in the field and then the aftermath etc. Its like one big song really hehe. My fav Bathory album...nr 2 would have to be Under the Sign of the Black Mark. Can't go wrong with that IMHO. I hope ppl don't mind but im gonna copy this to reactions on different channels,this is not a bot or something,just got tired of retyping it again and again 🤷♂️🤳🏻🤘😈🤘
Ok so........ as much as you seem to enjoy black metal.... I sincerely from the bottom of my blackened heart believe that you would absolutely love a thing called viking metal! A good band to check out Is Aman amarth .
This song is the kinda transition album before he started more of a viking metal style... This song is not what I would call a typical black metal song...
HADES, THE WOODWOMAN, as examples, are amazing Bathory songs at entirely polar ends of the spectrum. you can get clean guitars, distorted guitars, or a mix of both, same with vocals.
Black metal? One essential would be Darkthrone, Bathory is more first wave and compared to the second wave is quite calm, but my absolute favorite black metal song from wave 2, Mayhem, my death from their Chimera album 2004, highly recommend that song

But yeah, Bathory kind of set the standard of having fuzzy buzzsaw recordings, but they always had great songwriting.
thats why the release of Blood on Ice was pushed back, it was too savage a stylistic change

some of his thrash stuff we can forgive because of his viking metal albums
you have to go back to 79' in the early days of black metal.
@@beepboop204his viking metal stuff good af
Quorthon the singer of Bathory basically invented the black metal vocal style.
Bathory - “Enter the Eternal Fire” (black metal) + “Twilight of the Gods” (super epic Viking Metal).
Dom Dracul’s cover of Bathory’s “You Don’t Move Me” is rad, also.
I can hear this riff all day

@@Adrian-ey5xp I swear you can hear the guitar breath or take a breath during that solo... like his guitar was alive
@@rowenshad53 I think apart from all quorthons epic solos.shores in flames solo has to be 1 of the best in metal
@@rowenshad53or the solo in call from the grave
Cool reaction.. Quorthon changed underground metal forever. You should do the song "War"
The main guy once said "if I was an Italian, I'd make songs about The Roman Empire"; but he was Swedish, thus the Viking stuff (after the earliest "Satanist" stuff).
Ha ha I had your same profile pic for years. Hetfield looked glorious in 89’
Imagine instead of Viking Metal, we had Roman Empire Metal.
Damn I want some now.
@@xytras6451 There's a roman themed band called Ex Deo, they're symphonic death metal similar to fleshgod apocalypse
I never heard black metal before and I think it sounds amazing.
Actually the last black metal album from Bathory was 'under the sign of the black mark' this is viking metal
as the guy above pointed out this particular track is more Viking then Black Metal.
Bathory's earlier stuff is Black Metal. More raw, faster and cold
@Morbid Angel is better than Death Blood Fire Death is not Black Metal. Viking Metal is certainly an offshot of Black Metal but is a subgenre with it's own specific.

Legendary band... Legendary song... Very good reaction!
Man... This is pure legend. The man. The song. The Band. Those years. Pure black and gold.
the first time i saw the bathory logo i thought it said bathord but now i am a bathory fan
My friend thought it stood Batlord on my t-shirt 😂
Love love Bathory. This reaction earned my click of the Subscribe button!
Subbed because of your Black Metal reactions and Bathory. Let's gooo!
Bathory - Odins Ride Over Nordland
It ' s from the same album.
Please listen to Death - Open Casket!
I like the production it gives another feeling to the song and the solo is f*ing nice
Great selection. Love your reactions.You Rock🤘
I personally suggest “enter the eternal fire” and “call from the grave”!!! Such epic tracks that are equally as profound as this one
Great vid, good analysis. I will say that this is more of a proto black metal type of thing with some heavy metal elements.
First video of yours. Really enjoyed it. Great choice of music
cool!
kinda suprised you havent reacted to the band Dimmu Borgir - The mourning Palace (live @ wacken)
Amazing band... first band playIng Vikingmetal
Bathory - Twilight of the Gods (genre= masterpiece)
Actually, I don't like reaction videos because many react to music from those who have no idea! but you do it well and you try to understand the music. Good Job!!
I hunger to learn about music I don’t understand. Right now black metal has peaked my interests!

you should also react to Bathory's "In nomine satanas". that's some serious gourmet shit right there
1988 this came out, truly ahead of its time. RIP Quorthon..
Awesome my guy, never heard of them they are great so far.grest reaction my friend ❤️.
I wish WISH you had heard the intro before this, it ties into this song perfectly! It's on youtube and called Oden's ride to Nordland
Quorthon was quite the troll. He told a reporter his real name was something in a different language. When translated it was some kind of sexual act but the reporter included it in the interview without confirming it. Might have gotten something wrong in this but the general idea of it made me laugh.
Best song you've reacted to imo.
Not Black Metal, but Exodus Cajun Hell is such an overlooked song.
Beautifully Bathory. 😭🙏👍🏾👍🏾
Quorthon is uniqe and above all,Blood Fire Death is masterpiece album..and your reaction is simply..enjoying in music and give real describe of feelings...welcome in Bathory opus...
Classic album! Would completely recommend the title track too.
I strongly recommend the title track of the album, it's just pure epicness!
Blood fire death is one of my favorite songs. Epic viking song imo.
Yes, Bathory - Call from the grave is my fav!
Bathory - the lake
Very late work from them with some of my favorite melodic vocals with a nasty baseline through the whole track.
Some more black metal for you
Ninkharsag- the dread March of solemn gods
Fiat Knox- The archive of nightmares
Mephorash- Chalice of Thagirion
Baptism- Grim arts of Melancholy
The crazy thing about this track to me is, despite the pretty terrible mix quality I have yet to find a cover that can even hold a torch to the original.
Listen to the cover version of this song made by Emperor, you won't be disappointed 🤟
Bro you should dig on some Satyricon.
Deep calleth upon deep
Commando
Blood cracks open the ground
As the pentagram burns
Bathory decimates!
I've been a fan since 1987.
Tony F. Corpse
(Post Mortem Superstar)
Just caught the Coat of Many Colors video. That was some rare honesty. Can you guys do Lynyrd Skynyrd Simple Man and The Ballad of Curtis Loew?
You should check out some songs from Watain. They covered this song, but they have MANY great songs. Also, I just discovered BAEST. Another amazing band!!!
You should give the band Brothers of Metal. They are relatively new but they are great. They mostly sing about Viking mythology
Lol worst band name ever
one of the first black metal bands
Twilight of the Gods. Greatest album from them.
a healthy 666 upvotes lol. Love this track. I'm here because I'm trying to relearn it on guitar.
You SHOULD check "satyricon walk the path of sorrow"
Once you get in there's no going back
Hail Quorthon 🤘🏿🔥
Bathory 😳 ok yes I will hit the subscribe button.

I don’t know if you’ve done it already but can you do The Lake -Bathory
Bathory - foreverdark woods
good idea
Burzum - Dunkelheit. It's once in a lifetime experience.
Epitome of black metal.
Will you react to Devourment Unleash the Carnivore next time?
Hail Quorthon!!!!!
Venom's Black Metal album is a good entry point to the subgenre.
@@bschuler6216 Good album
Venom is Speed Metal tho.
Venom is Heavy Metal not Black Metal, its just the title
