Lyrics Orgy of silence Conspiracy of peace Only the sound Of the cold northern breeze Twinsun sink fading Behind the black lake Asleep is the mountains Yet the night is awake Strange is the night Now black stars rise And many moons circle Through silent the night Along the black mountainside scattered By the campfires awaiting the dawn Two times a hundred men in battles Tried by the steel in the arrow, axe, and the sword By battle worn hunger torn awaitening For the sun to break through the cold haze And for the banners of Ebal to appear On the hill in the suns first warm rays The elder among the men looked deep into The fire and spoke loud with pride Tomorrow is a fine day to die Now the morning advance from far east Now the sun breaks through dustclouds and haze Now a forest of spears appears on the hill And steel shines bright in the suns first rays Die Die Die Die
Legend has it that if you play "Bathory" on a sunny day, Quorthon rises from the grave, rapes three virgins, burns down at least one church, turns the volume knob up by 16dB whilst you're not watching, and tells the sun to "Fuck right off!"
Yes! That transformation from whimsical to homicidal was perfect! First time hearing this and completely appreciate that little gem! Dope song! This song again, flipped the script. 6:50 so intense!
Its still black metal, although more of a subgenre. Its blackened viking metal, black metal. Listen to actual "viking metal" songs, there's obvious differences
Hands down no matter what myriad of genres of music I have experienced and absorbed in my 47 years this track is just fucking awesome... good music is just good music, no matter how it is delivered.
@@jebbus8387 looking at your channel you probably know a lot of the classics already I'll list some newer ones in no particular order. thy art is murder "holy war", decapitated "day 69", job for a cowboy "embedded", full of hell "crawling back to God", zeal and ardor "run", gaza "I don't care where I go when I die" Lol , end "pariah", nails "savage intolerance", portrayal of guilt/chat pile split ep, methwitch "burn victim", cult leader "isolation in the land of milk and honey", necrophagist "culinary hyperdiversity", terra tenebrosa "the end is mine to ride". Could name more but not sure if they're black metal. Not sure if all of these are either.
No matter how many times I listen to this song, I discover new ways to be blown away by it. Hands down the most iconic black metal work of art ever constructed. Hail Quorthon 🤘🏽🔥𖤐

Blackbraid just honored it too....Native American Black Metal, it's really good! Nothing is better than the original, I was 13 when it came out & wouldn't discover this masterpiece until 1995....I was listening to "old" Metallica in 1988, about to discover Slayer....And on & on...Till, one day, my roommate got his hands on a cassette tape of Burzum's self titled debut 1994, my life changed....I've never stopped listening to Black Metal!!! I'm 48 now....What a blur, time has become?

2:40 Ive always liked the menacing sort of subtle riffing in this part. Later there is also a little harmony hidden in the mix when the verse riff hits. Its barely audible but once you hear it every cover of this song that lacks it feels incomplete. Then there's the rythmical gallop riff part which has this feeling of the pulse of the song quickening. Which is something you almost never hear in music. Its hard to tell if its intentional but for me it makes the music feel very organic and alive. Unhinged. Its an ecstatic berserker rage in music form. And Quorthon's lyrics are actually pretty intelligent. It reminds me of an extremely pissed off William Blake. Edit: "actually pretty intelligent" because i generally don't have high expectations on metal lyrics. When listening to power metal for example its better to just ignore them.

As a U.S. citizen that's listened to far more Metallica than black metal, this is pretty relatable and accessible. Nicely done. And, you know, the name Bathory just sounds cooler than Venom or Mayhem anyway.

It seems to me this is the oldest song which resembles nowadays Black Metal genre, although I may be wrong, could be others as well. It is just so black metal, like I listen to Immortal literally.
found one of their shirts in a thrift shop in alaska. thought it looked cool, so i checked them out. glad i did!
Welcome, brother.
Cool!
How did you figure the H and the Y? The first time i saw Bathory i thought the name was Batlord or Bachord (lol)
Batlord is my favorite band ever! \m/

Lyrics
Orgy of silence
Conspiracy of peace
Only the sound
Of the cold northern breeze
Twinsun sink fading
Behind the black lake
Asleep is the mountains
Yet the night is awake
Strange is the night
Now black stars rise
And many moons circle
Through silent the night
Along the black mountainside scattered
By the campfires awaiting the dawn
Two times a hundred men in battles
Tried by the steel in the arrow, axe, and the sword
By battle worn hunger torn awaitening
For the sun to break through the cold haze
And for the banners of Ebal to appear
On the hill in the suns first warm rays
The elder among the men looked deep into
The fire and spoke loud with pride
Tomorrow is a fine day to die
Now the morning advance from far east
Now the sun breaks through dustclouds and haze
Now a forest of spears appears on the hill
And steel shines bright in the suns first rays
Die
Die
Die
Die
Opaaaa valeu pela tradução!
❤
Sick
War is food
Blood is water
I starve
"The elder among the men looked deep into
The fire and spoke loud with pride
Tomorrow is a fine day to die"
On a rainy day listening to the great Bathory, I can't ask for more 🖤
Fuck yes.
Legend has it that if you play "Bathory" on a sunny day, Quorthon rises from the grave, rapes three virgins, burns down at least one church, turns the volume knob up by 16dB whilst you're not watching, and tells the sun to "Fuck right off!"
shit same
edit: didnt think that the very first comment will speak my mind!!
A Fine Day To Listen To Bathory
Poser's
This is my favorite song of all time.
Alice in chains fan greetings brother, AIC is my favorite band of grunge.
Pace till death
And asa bay
Sure is a badass song... Top 10 for me most definitely. Blood fire death also
I've only listened to the song a few times and I can already respect that.
If you think you have a bad day, just listen BATHORY.
t’s been 18 years without you Quorthon, rip legend.
Every second was a waste, because of he died
@@zaheenabrar5852 His life was no loss. He lives on within us like his stories he told
The last solo is just out of this world, can't get enough of it.
I think that in the history of humanity, something like this will never be able to be replicated.
RIP Quorthon you are gone but not forgotten Long Live Bathory
Yes! That transformation from whimsical to homicidal was perfect! First time hearing this and completely appreciate that little gem! Dope song!
This song again, flipped the script.
6:50 so intense!
Just love that part!
not to be pedantic but i think "solemn" is a more fitting word than "whimsical"
This is not music this is a Peace of art
*piece
Sveriges stolthet! Thomas Forsberg Aka Quorthon Bathory the king
Can totally see Odin and his crows jamming out to Bathory above all other bands, Legendary 🐺🪓😤⚔️ 🐺
Probably the best black metal song I’ve ever heard. An absolute bop.
This song ventures more into Viking Metal both musically and lyrically. The 2nd and 3rd albums are both Black Metal classics.
They created Viking metal, this is not black.
Its still black metal, although more of a subgenre. Its blackened viking metal, black metal.
Listen to actual "viking metal" songs, there's obvious differences
Masterpiece 🤘🇧🇷
Apenas 🤘🏼🖤
A simple, but accurate statement!
mito
Independente 🤘🏻🖤
The guitar solo’s are so beautiful. The riffs are so driving, melodic yet heavy!
Such a great song, even though many people outside the black metal community know this song this is a certified hood classic
Hands down no matter what myriad of genres of music I have experienced and absorbed in my 47 years this track is just fucking awesome... good music is just good music, no matter how it is delivered.
you've got 29 years experience on me but I'm agreeing with this comment heavily.
can add 12 years of more experience, but youre right - still one of my most loved albums ...
In my 47 years of doing the same, I'd totally agree. The man created music for the ages.
Bathory! My all time favorite band in the world! Skål quorothon father of black & viking metal🍻💯🤘🏼🔥
Hail quorthon 🤘🏼🖤🇧🇷
NO GREVE DISSOCIATi
🤟
Hail Quorthon in Valhalla! 🇳🇮
The man, the myth, the legend
First time listening to Bathory I'm not a huge fan of black metal but this one caught my attention
What black metal have you listened to? I can give some suggestions if you want.
@@johnpeppard6027 Hey man can you list them for me please

@@johnpeppard6027 Awesome thanks man
@@johnpeppard6027 immortal first albums are the most close to this. The rest are only boring shadows of bathory
Great album. I have on vinyl
I have it on cd
Blackened Speed/Thrash Metal = Early Black Metal
No just black metal r€t@r¿
I see now the original influences of modern day black metal...! This is a singular song to resound throughout the ages!!!
Quorthon, one of the biggest names in Metal, is still missed today.
Still have the LP gatefold one of the best metal albums of all time.
I have the vinyl gate-fold too. No more comment needed!
You know it's good when you have goosebumps listening to it and this song always makes me feel like a porcupine 😂👍
No matter how many times I listen to this song, I discover new ways to be blown away by it.

I was 13 yrs old when i purchased and heard this for the very first time. Very influential and inspirational album.long live quorthon and Bathory🤘🍺

If it wasn't for you. I would know wtf dude was saying
Bathory Quorthon Tomas is an Icon here in Sweden! death viking metal hard rock he did it all genres!
This is... absolutely amazing dude...
Even after all these years, I still feel the hair stand up on my neck when I hear the Gods charging into battle on the clouds. Unstoppable!
If hell had some background music then this could be it. Masterpiece riffs and solo.
more like valhalla!
My most favorite metal song of all time. It is so fucking godly. Emperor was the only band that could ever cover this song.

Black/Viking/Thrash Metal
The absolute greatest Black Metal/Death Metal song ever.
One of the rare cases when you like the song upon the first listening to it.
One od THE BEST sond ever💪🤘CLASSIC. In Poland we call it- ZAJEBISTE
Russian call that : nihua ohuet'
ZAJEBISTE>>>>
In poland we call it ziom nie trafiles w klawiature
I listen to this song almost every day, and all bathory songs too. pretty sure i have a bathory addiction
6:48. This was the moment I failed no fap
thank god im deaf
basically the best song in the album, other songs of this album are good too but this is just another level
The title track is just as epic, if not more.
One of the best songs ❤
masterpiece
The outro to this song is legendary. The drums straight into the solo and that monster riff coming back in. 😤🤘🏼
I love this song so much!

This is an amazing track surreal unbelievable guitar playing black metal is so fast and perfect.
one of the best of all time!!
Amazing Sweedish Metal greetings from Greece
4 or 5 of the GOAT riffs in one song
This song would be perfect for the Battle for Helms Deep from Lord of the Rings Two Towers, when Gandalf shows up at the end with the riders of Rohan.
a perfect song for driving the speed limit to pick up bagels
😄
My all time favourite metal band.
By far and away no contest!👿🤘
Great artist great musician... Great song! Hail Bathory! 🤚🏻🤚🏻🤚🏻
