HOLY FUCK, I HOPE ABBATH NEVER COMES BACK BECAUSE THAT NEW ALBUM IS KILLER.
yes! that first track is nuts...
New NCGs is fucking amazing, cold, poetic, brutal, wicked fast riffing, insane solos....how the fuck???!!!
Every song is a straight banger.
@John Kapa for real
I think they should bury the hatchet and get back together they would probably get popular. Demonaz needs to put the band back together if anything. What he doing now does anybody know ? It's a great album and better than anything Abbath has released. Abbath will be here in Chicago Apirl 10th with Mayhem.
of course they do goofy poses. they dont take themselves too serious. they are having fun.
👍👍👍
Better than that piece of shit gaahl that takes 7 mins to say "satan" while sipping wine
@@TheVoltConjurer 😂😂😂😂 true
That is why i love this fucking band
What is wrong whit fun??
Immortal has no bad albums 🤘
What I like about Immortal is that they focus on being good musicians making solid music, not on being super-kvlt.
I also really like the witty tongue-in-cheek aspect of their presentation. They are not pretentious and don't take themselves too seriously.
I also like how they didn’t take Black Metal to the extremes of terrorism in Norway 🇳🇴
One reason I like belphegor
Sons of Northern Darkness is an absolute masterpiece from start to finish, perfect Black Metal album for me
Crystal Clean I agree
Same for me
Crystal Clean could not have said it better, one of the best BM albums of all time!!!
Definitely one of the absolute best of the 2000s
Yeah that and All shall fall are the very best of black metal albums.
Immortal is so damn good its hard to choose a favorite album.For me its either Sons of northern darkness, at the heart of winter or pure holocaust.
Daniel Hernandez2 that’s like a third of them😂
Heart of Winter is their masterpiece, I think.
At the heart of winter is the most memorable and has a great sound
The opening riff on Withstand The Fall
Of Time makes me instantly think of giant icebergs and cold weather.
"Demon-Ass"
yeah brutal! :D :D :D
Hes a legend
My favorite Black Metal band by far, they make this perfect 'cold winter' music, it's not just music, it actually feels like an essence of winter of sorts. Immortal is amazing! At the Heart of Winter, Damned in Black and Sons of Northern Darkness my favorite Black Metal albums! Also the comical part is what makes them even greater! It resembles Loki in a way, not just generic "evil" like Gorgoroth or Behemoth, which feels like a bit too much in my opinion.
I am almost 60 years old and Immortal has been full on assaulting me for a loooooong time! I absolutely love them and always will!! 🎸🥁🔱⚫️🇧🇻❄️🍻
Almost 60? I'd say you've aged like fine wine 😍. I'm 27 btw 😂
At the heart of winter is A fucking masterpiece. I love that last song! Come on man!
"Never really did anything for me"
*Proceeds to play one of the greatest and most underrated moments on the entire record*
Great job here. Before gate keepers get all pissy... I am 42 years old, I was there when all this was brand new, liked it, and still do. With that said, here is the truth. Watching a well done video (like this one) about the history of such bands is honestly 10 times out of 10 better than actually listening album to album in almost every case. Trust me. The allure is litterally the history of it all. Great video and this is my 3rd time playing it back. Permo Frost!!!!
It’s so funny you say this because I spend more time watching videos and documentaries about black metal then I do listening to the music 😂
At the Heart of Winter is my favorite Immortal album. I love the sound, and some of the riffs are fantastic.
Loved Immortal in the beginning.. then i left.. sons of Northern Darkness was a glorious return!! Thanks for your video🏴🎩
This channel is so underrated
You deserve more subscribers for the effort you put in the "retrospective" videos
Keep it up \m/
"Years of silent sorrow never did anything for me" Thats your own fault bro.
>"Years of Silent Sorrow never did anything for me"
>Proceeds to play one of the most stand-out moments on the entire record
Great video man
Scott Shannon thanks brudely dudely
The perfect evening:
Listening to Immortal, a bath and some demon ass!
A lold at this
Diabolical Full Moon mysticism is so good
Humor in metal is great
I love it
Thank god for that tendinitis, otherwise we wouldn't have had At the Heart of Winter, which is their best album imo, and one of the crown achievements in the Black metal genre
At The Heart of Winter is the greatest guitar album of BM of all time.
well I disagree because it's not pure Black Metal, but yeah it's is a really damn good album
I hear you but what is really "pure black metal?" Sorry I am not one of those who runs around yelling "This is true, true...some idiots don't think it's "true" if something is released on a major label. For me I love Black Metal and even though I have been listening to Venom since they came out....WATAIN to me is by far the best B< band that ever lived and not just because their music is awesome. However you will have someone say something bad about them (how one could I will never understand) but all of this "true" shit..I don't go for it. At The Heart shows so much fucking talent, it is amazing. The guitars present such an awesome atmosphere. I hear you though. Some people will tell me how great Emperor is and I like their early work, especially Anthems but those dudes are a bunch of pussies for what they did in 1999, (when after 3 gigs of their 10c city US tour they went running home like a bunch of pussies pissing all over their fans who were dying to see them. I have no respect for that. I sued to work for NBA and Dimmu's first USA tour, half of the people who saw that tour saw it for FREE and places were half packed, if that. What did they do, they kept coming over to tour and their following became pretty big in the US and it still would be if they did not change their entire style of the band. To me it is much more about the music, it's ow much you care. I always loved Immortal but I loved them even more when they toured the US more than once. So as for "true?" To me nothing is totally "true." Touring is a BIG deal to me.
He means the more heavy and thrash metal influenced riffing. I prefer calling it a different expanded style. Same with the hellenic scene (Rotting Christ, Varathron, Necromantia), which hasnt the second wave riffing, but counts as black metal!
Dude, you've definitely watched too much BLUE SHREK as a toddler! 😂😂
I love the retrospectives about the bands
Immortals DVD which I lost in a bad storage deal was awesome, I very rarely got to watch it & I'd like to get another copy.
At the heart of winter album has the best guitar riffs ever. Something you can tap your foot to
I've lost count of how many times I nearly pissed myself from laughter watching "call of the winter moon". It's on par with classic Charlie Chaplin and Monty Python.
Check out a band called The Black Satans. Very similar: ruclips.net/video/XOibIxl3dLo/видео.html
immortal is back
I love this band
Great review and loving this channel more and more.
John Doe
Same
Northern Chaos Gods is amazing
If you drink every time he says "very very" you'll be drunk in a couple of minutes
It’s pronounced Blah-Shirk just so u know.
i always liked Immortal because i felt like they got "the joke". they were always a solid band but there was just a tiny hint of a pisstake there too
Them and Darkthrone lasted this long because the wya didn’t take themselves seriously into loser edgelord territory and babble on about how evil and dark they are
It cracks me how you say Blashyrkh!!
It's funny how you and a lot of people say that you wouldn't want to see how Immortal would turn out without Abbath, but the new Immortal album released by Demonaz pretty much shits on Abbath's album and it is as good as any other Immortal album. I think this shows that Demonaz was a big driving force for the band even after he stopped playing guitar, and that in all of those years his contribution was a lot more that just writing lyrics and being a manager
Their early stuff under Amputation is f*ckin good shit
Re: On Blizzard Beasts, they wrote the album while on tour with Napalm Death. You can completely hear the influence....
👥👍👍👍
Immortal are brilliant song writers. I don't know how to explain it but they know how to create an awesome, epic atmosphere without resorting to keyboards. They also have an exotic sound and their guitar work reminds me of Trey Azagthoth at times, and I love their guitar tone. They're definitely one of the most original and talented of the early Norwegian black metal bands. I've always loved At The Heart of Winter. Every damned track on that album is exceptional imo.
When I think about black metal the first album I think of is Son’s of northern darkness
I'll always defend Immortal. Always.
The music video for “Call Of Winterdemons” is the cheesiest video you’ll ever see. It’s impossible to take them seriously if you watch that video.
Is it worse than Satyricons video of Mother North......
I have to dissagree here mate, At heart of winter is my favorite album by them, closely followed by the first album.
Agree about Damned in Black though, sounded way too messy overal.
The constant falling snow was a nice touch though
Jonas Wijte I love At the Heart of Winter as well
world downfall \m/
I agree
Battles in the North is a CLASSIC album.
EVERY Immortal album is a classic album!
And I must disagree with you about the new Abbath album. It rocks, course i'm not a strict black metaller, but good metal is good metal and I love the new album!
Blizzard Beasts reminds me a lot of "Altars of Madness" from Morbid Angel.
Commenting in 2023. I love all of Immortals albums including their newest releases with Demonaz. Also love Abbath’s albums.
Killer job.
Mike Juehring thank you
Damned in black is great
It's like americans see a foreign word, give whole 2 seconds thought and pronounce it as wrong as possible and never think twice about it.. "Blashierk". You _could_ even try.
latuman it’s almost like us Americans have our own accents just like everyone else... what a concept huh?
Why? Blashyrkh is a made up word, it's not as if it meant anything in Norwegick
How do you pronounce 你很笨？
Radle Grebdron what a self centered and ignorant thing for you to say
😂😂😂
And Europeans always copies American things very badly at that too
Gonna have to disagree with you on At The Heart of Winter, especially with Years of Silent Sorrow. Some of the best BM out there in my opinion. Couldn't agree more on Sons of Northern Darkness though.
Fantastic video as always
Christian McGuire yea at the heart winter is ah total masterpiece my favorite.
At The Heart of Winter kicks ass! PERIOD
My #1 favorite Black Metal band, period. Diabolical Fullmoon Mysticism was absolutely great but when I heard Sons of Northern Darkness I fell for them
well thats what you get when you live 10 months out of the year under snow. you go bananas. it sounds like a frog is ear fuckin you
Sons... is great. Blows away the two albums before it and after it.
Beyond the North Waves is one of the best metal songs of all time.
Another awsome band
I'm patiently waiting for the new Immortal album, it's been a long time
1. Pure Holocaust & Diabolical Fullmoon Mysticism
2. Blizzard Beasts & Battles In The North
3. Northern Chaos Gods - At The Heart Of Winter
4. Sons Of Northern Darkness
5. Damned In Black
6. All Shall Fall
This is mine ranking for these albums
Immortal are awesome. Hanging out with them was.a experience. They are just metal heads who want to have fun and never take themselves seriously.
Calming music for babies.
Yeah, you're just plain wrong about At The Heart Of Winter.
Immortal is amazing
I miss Abbath out front on vocals. Demonaz just doesn’t do it for me. Sons Of Northern Darkness is the best album they ever did ( as well as At The Heart Of Winter)
Umm, Abbath's favorite band was KISS and he got the fire deal from some due name Gene Simmons. From someone who likes Bathory, let's set the record straight...in caps. FUCKING QUARTHON CALLED HIMSELF "ACE" AFTER ACE FRHELY - KISS. QUARTHON BREATHED FIRE AFTER GENE SIMMONS. All of you fucking morons .....KISS inspired much of the imagery of Black Metal. Venon's favorite band: KISS.
Well said and said with a justified fire.
@@CyrusCageSCWS THANK YOU ...that is very kind of you.
I think Demonaz got the last laugh on this one. After resurrecting the Immortal name, he released Northern Chaos Gods (and recently another one I haven't heard yet) which, in my humble opinion, blows away anything Abbath did. It's like Pure Holocaust, but even better
The grim tyrants from the frostbitten kingdom of Blashyrkh will rule this place alone, under a frozen sun, beyond the Mountains of Might, breathing clearest wind, at the heart of winter, until it all falls. 🤘🤘🤘
I saw a random comment on an Abbath interview and it’s very true.
“He’s like the Robin Williams of black metal”
Very good video, subscribed
every time you mispronounce blashyrkh my soul dies a little
Ben Conway everytime I pronounce a Norwegic term correctly, there is blood in my stool
DownFall NetWork haha I didn’t mean anything by it. I love your videos, keep up the great work
😅😅👥
Blaaashyrk with the same "a" sound as "ass" or "blast" :-) Blaaaashyrk mighty ravendark
Downfall Network listens to Black metal with playshktbeats
So, I read in an interview with Demonaz that Abbath actually learned to play guitar from him. The guitar-styles of both are so different, that I wouldn't go so far to say that abbath is a better guitar player since he learned from Demonaz
Very Interesting👍👍👍
Blizzard Beasts is a "weak album?" LOL...OMG.
The drums for Pure Holocaust were played much slower and sped up during mastering hence the trebley sound, if internet rumors are anything to go on.
I'd like to see Behemoth next. Their demo stuff and the debut kick ass.
Pure Holocaust is the best for me
Omg for a second I thought that annoying ass echoey voice was going to be the narration. This channel has been known to beat a joke totally into the ground but thankfully not this time.After first couple of minutes extremely enjoyable.
downFEEEll ChEEnel, thats how its pronounced?
FA the fa yes
Damned in Black has my favorite Immortal riffs, its almost Thrash at points.
I’ve always wondered whatever happened to Iscariah after the band split? I’ve searched the internet on every possible site but found nothing.
Anyone know anything?
You're going to have to update this soon. Immortal completed their new album and (for some reason) is waiting for a release.
nah, too lazy
My two favorite albums: Battles in the North + At the Heart of Winter ! I really really don't like All Shall Fall, but Northern Chaos Gods is kinda nice.
I agree that Damned in Black is pretty much Thrash Metal, but At the Heart of Winter mostly reminds me of Heavy/Power metal.
You didn't give enough credit to Damned in Black. It was a perfect product of it's age. Stuck Black Metal to Thrash Metal when other bands stuck to less than ideal musical ventures. In the end, the material is an excellent product both to own and to see live.
You mentioned the two solo projects, but didn't include the "spinoff-band" called "I". It's like Sons of Northern Darkness-Lite.
I consider the worst album Blizzard Beasts.
Honestly Abbath and Demonaz are just two goofballs who probably aren't actually in a grudge, and Immortal, if continued, is best with BOTH of them in the band and on stage instead of any other way. They could even both do vocals at the same time intertwined, and they could definitely both write songs. It doesn't even matter who plays guitar and bass live.
And Horgh pretty much earned being considered the third most important member after all the help he had done over the years.
As for a possible additional musician, the Enslaved guys seemed willing to be helpful on and off. And Abbath has his Motörhead project called Bömbers where he could probably ask a guitarist to help out.
Immortal is the Manowar of black metal.
Whenever and wherever I looked around, Immortal always united each and every group no matter the differences.
Every SANE metalhead likes at least something from this band.
I really like this band too, but two albums I’m not so much a fan of: Damned in Black and Diabolical Fullmoon Mysticism, for some reason it doesn’t draw me in, I disagree with u on All Shall Fall
SULIMANTIMEBAAABIEEE!!1!!!
There is No right or wrong answer for which is the best Immortal album. I think you are understating In the Heart of Winter. That is in the top 10 Black Metal records of All Time!!! In my opinion. I Love the channel Bro, can you do a video of Fleshgod Apocalypse
No no no 😢😅 At the heart of winter is actually one of my favorites
All very interesting aspects, thanks! Though I have to disagree with much your opinions !
Immortals new album is awesome
I liked Abbath's self titled album. Ocean of Wounds and Root of the Mountain are friggin' epic.
The first album is their best
Abbath and Demonaz together were more than the sum of their parts. I really hope they bury the hatchet and reunite someday. The new Immortal stuff is technically good, but it lacks Abbath's charisma. Demonaz should release it as solo material. Just my opinion.
And WHAT! DAMNED IN BLACK IS SIIIIIICK!
Any chance of doing a Judas Iscariot or Abigor episode?
Judas Iscariot is coming very soon as part of winter mayhem 2
actually disagree immoral have always been an awesome band. Changes come and go but always unique. Abbath was the man but the new album sonds decent for this day and age
Im going to date myself but ti say they late to the metal is kinda true and im going in a good direction. I remeber being a kid in like the mid 80s but almost metal bands ..ugh i hate saying the word genre! That word crossex my mind once !..anyways all metal bands of the heavier sort that got started in the early to mid 80s all had this sound that immortal kept alive and you havent heard it in about 35 years or so. Being the production always had a raw sound..it didmt matter if it was possessed seven churches which was the first hardcore band i ever heard or Kreator or Venom or even the Misfits and even bands that are huge now...they all scared the hell outta me listening to em because of its rawness and it sounds real and like they all were recording in pit in hell or something. They all had it. These continued that.what they continued was it was real and they were real or least when i listened to the album. These guys have that f you attitude! Thats what all metal was back then! Loud rude obnoxious but also screw society and mainstream and the dudes that play in any hardcore now ..they would of got made fun of and called a lot of really bad messed things. Metal in the 80s it all had a black darkness. The album covers , we didn't have the internet so thats all we knew of the bands. It kept em very dark and almost like fiction. Like today metal bands will be sounding super heavy but singing about driving some car to a park and chasing butterflies and doing this while wearing a pink hoodie or something! I dont think anybody that was born after that era will completely understand it..they are to busy with labels and creating another genre. That right there is what metal was against and its a good fit . I could go on forever cuz i feel like i had this inside for about 20 years. So thanks for letting comment
I'm the opposite with damned in black. Didn't like it as much when I first bought it then here recently found it at a used cd store and said listened to it more and more and have grown to love it.
Demonaz!!!
It is my understanding that they could play circles around the other bands that were doing the fires. I think when that was happening, that was the time they started to do the WWF thing. I think of Immortal as the real deal.!
VOISINES
Ah, yeah. A-bath and Demon-ass in Blishiyrk
A Bath and Demon Ass also blyshriek
IMMORTAL ABSOFUKINLUTLY ROCK..they are easily one of the cornerstones of BLACK METAL
FERMIERS
i'm convinced that they did battle's in the north so "badly" becouse they tried to sound like those garage bands that never make it to be even more black metal!
Why no mention of mountains of might? Easily one of their best songs
Fuck yeah it's one of the songs I go back to when I'm having a listen
