    The same can soon be said for Megadeth's back catalog up to 1999 :/

    The Return will always be my personal favorite black metal album of all time. The album is drenched in atmosphere and the song "Born for Burning" is one of Bathory's best tunes.

      Why thank you! Maybe some day. Probably won't be a vinyl review though, given that most Black Mark presses after '91-ish aren't the greatest in the world, plus now they're mostly sourced from CD.. Tell ya what, I've been in the mood for Nordland lately.

    • @dogbrother663
      @dogbrother663 8 років тому +2

      Killbot&GorGorAttack!! That was the greatest bathory albums review and conclusions ever, I'd never watched any bathory reviews that better, you explained the whole thing that was going on with bathory back in the day, and you were right, I had just finished listening to the original bathory's "bathory" 1984 album vinyl (what a coincidence), before watching your review, and I realize how better and different It is from the cd version, I was looking for the return of darkness and evil vinyl version and I found this video and I though "whoah! a bathory review I'm going to watch this instead!" good job man and keep up with the good work!

    • @KillbotAndGorGorAttack
      @KillbotAndGorGorAttack  8 років тому +1

      Gracias! It was needed because there are lots of vinyl rip videos and videos about the newer represses but none on the originals. It's a shame because for years me and my friends who are my age have been used to the god-awful remixed versions. Treated myself to these originals last Christmas and walked on a cloud since then >:D someone told me a few months ago "reviewing 30 year old albums? Don't you think there are enough reviews of them?" and while he DID have a point, the point of the video was to have all the originals together and explain the differences.

    I loaded this and got my wake up call this morning. Hail to sounds of BATHORY!!! Okay, it's more Hail to the intensity of Killbot&GorGorAttack!!! and your winning enthusiasm for all things METAL. Love the bit about playing records backward. You do not shirk on the equipment, that's for sure. Caught the fun reference to "Under The Pink" which was a great curve-ball. Oh and yes, when a track listing is out of order it's irksome. It was wild to think over the content of vinyl being repressed of a compact disc version and that messing with the music itself. No surprise there and I'm glad you catch this stuff. You make these both informative and fun. Never a dull moment, eh. ^_^

    How is the back on black edition of Bathory's first album? I found a copy for a reasonable price and I was wondering if it's safe to get

    • @KillbotAndGorGorAttack
      @KillbotAndGorGorAttack  7 років тому +5

      I didn't know BOB made a Bathory repress. But if it exists, I'd still strongly recommend an original copy. Back on Black will use the best sounding source given to them, but that would mean that Black Mark would give them a CD, as BM wouldn't use a source tape theirselves. They could fuck up a cup of coffee...
      Look for ANY vinyl release of any Bathory album prior to 1991. For the first one, the Combat, Black Mark, and Banzai editions sound similar (mids boosted on the Combat version) with slightly different intro lengths. As for the post-Hammerheart stuff, see my other Bathory video to what you can look for.

    I want to order a Bathory album, but I want to know the sound difference between the cd and vinyl. (Under the sign of the black mark) CD is like €14 and vinyl €23. Looking at price, which one is better to take?

    • @KillbotAndGorGorAttack
      @KillbotAndGorGorAttack  7 років тому +2

      CD if you're buying a new vinyl, simply because the vinyl is taken from the CD... now, a 1980s pressing would sound better than both, but would cost much more. For that I'd look on Discogs or Ebay.

    But between you had original Requiem really extreme .
    And Blood on ice also between BFD and Hammerheart
    I guess Quorthon between 1985 and 1989 was like Prince making album in 1987 .
    1 vault album , Sign of the times the black album .....

      Usually I do the soap-and-water scrub method with a cotton cloth. I even do that with brand new vinyl just as they come out of the package. Sometimes records will have wax residue from the factory so if you clean that off then it'll have less pops. Been wanting a VPI machine forever though.
