Me too ... actually , just when I thought Bathory couldn´t do any " better " than that splendid gatefold LP which came before this , " Blood , fire , Death " ... this comes out . I actually have moments which have marked me forever listening to this album ... you know , 16 or 17 when this came out ... like driving my parents´ car in the middle of a little storm right to the pier and just standing there smoking some solid listening to this on the old cassete players most cars came with , facing the waves crashing near me ... the Atlantic ... where my ancestors once sailed all over he world ... the essence of who I am , epiphanies, fantasies ... identity ... yeah ... most likely what you speak of too ... my favourite album till I reached the age of having " many favorite " albums .
@@saraivatoledo1842 It's a break from songs like Dies Irae lol. Even as a child, I was more of a fan of slow moving, deep bass rhythm. I have a low voice like my grandfather did and he was around very often when I was still in my mother's womb. He helped to build-up the house and other things with my father and I must have picked up on that frequency and I must have also inherited that voice voice because then when my sister became pregnant, I was speaking around her and helping her fix things up in her new place and sure enough, my niece actually prefers music that is slow moving and lower frequencies...
@kersemus Åkerlund being involved in the production of this video is very unlikely, as to our knowledge there was only one cameraman/producer involved. (We can thank that guy for the lack of Bathory music videos by the way.) Quorthon did likely approach Jonas to make more prior to this one's completion (at least one was for a song from Twilight of the Gods, since Hammerheart and that album were made at very nearly the same time), but the frustrating process of making this one killed Quorthon's interest in making another ever again, unfortunately. (A similar story to the reason why he didn't play live.)
I remember discovering it on the French TV - M6 channel - in the fall of 1990, it was a killer program, whith "Painkiller", "Space Eater" and "Stonewall" - best back-to-school thing...

Deserved a remaster. Too bad it wasn't recorded in higher quality to begin with, but legends can be distant like that. And I'm glad I still know the lyrics by heart.
@@Yakkolino Oh of course. But there's so many old things we'll never see in good definition even though the technology was available at the time. I guess it's just the way things are.
Great video, that`s not liked Qurthon. But for my opinion, thats not too bad. And the moment of "...it's only just begun" one of the favoriest moments of all videos that I saw. Quorthon, rest in peace, brother...
LYRICS to sign along:
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
Thank you

A Masterpiece FOREVER!! ⚔️
I wish bathory made more music videos RIP quorthon :(
He'd planned to make more, I imagine the idea wasn't appealing anymore after the experience he had making this one.
@kersemus Åkerlund being involved in the production of this video is very unlikely, as to our knowledge there was only one cameraman/producer involved.

Quorthon legit makes me emotional. The sheer atmosphere in this music cannot be beat.
very strong very mystical magical to the bottom of pain helll and toSTAND UP AGGAIN STRONG con DIOS
Masterpiece...... no doubt about it

One of the black metal bands from the 1980's I couldn't wrap my head around.
What happened to the video that was uploaded in 2005?
Almost every Bathory video got deleted last year, quite sad. I am going to miss reading those old comments.
😈🤘🤘🤘
I bet that was cold out there.
Next level video in HD. So good to see it like this
SUBTITULOS AL ESPAÑOL
Un hombre recorrió el camino a través
de los bosques hacia la bahía de asa
donde los drakkkars habían zarpado del mar
más veces de lo que uno podría contar
para ver con sus propios ojos la maravilla
lo que la gente se contaba una a otra
que el dios todo poderoso había llegado de una
tierra extranjera, los rumores hablan de un hombre
que había llegado desde el otro lado de los mares
llevando una cadena con una cruz de oro alrededor del cuello
y hablando de paz en un extraño lenguaje
el había llegado con extraños hombres en armaduras
vestidos con ropas púrpuras, oliendo no a cervezas
sino a flores y sin vello en su rostro
Y el valiente hombre que cargaba la cruz
había dicho a todos en la bahía de asa
que el dios de todo hombre, mujer y
niños habían llegado para salvarlos
y como agradecimiento al señor del cielo
debían construir una casa para el dios
y para salvar su alma del infierno
debían ser bautizados y decir los votos
un orgulloso hombre con el martillo
le dijo al nuevo dios que construya
él mismo su propia casa, y habló
orgullosamente de los dioses de sus padres
no demasiado tiempo atrás, los rumores dicen
que el hombre con barba como el fuego
y con el martillo en su cadena por hombres con armaduras
fue silenciado y por sus espadas asesinado
aquellos que no pagaron una moneda de cuarto al hombre
del nuevo dios, fueron azotados veinte veces, encadenados
y luego encerrados para ser ejecutados, ¡ejecutados!
y entonces toda la bahía de asa construyó una casa de la cruz
cada hora a la luz del día ellos sudaron, sus extremidades les dolían
Y en el día 200, se la levantó blanca mirando hacia el cielo
la casa del dios de la cruz era tan grande
que podían entrar dos drakkars en ella,
y todos en la bahía de asa observaron
la maravilla de elevarse hacia el cielo,
ahora el dios de la cruz debe estar complacido y satisfecho,
solo afuera del circulo de la multitud un anciano se puso de pie
miró a través de las aguas y tapó sus ojos del sol con una mano
y sus viejos ojos apenas podían ver los drakkars zarpar
y sus viejos oídos apenas podían oír a los
numerosos hombres saludar y alabar a odín
y aunque él ya lo sabía, giró su rostro hacia el cielo
y susurró silenciosas palabras olvidadas habladas
sólo en lo alto, ahora que la casa del dios extranjero
ha sido levantada, ellos deben dejarnos en paz
aún asi, el escuchó de algún lugar del bosque
al viejo cuervo de la sabiduría decir...
"Gente de la tierra de asa, ¡¡esto es sólo el comienzo!!"
El legado que nos dejaste Quorthon es invaluable gracias por todo, te extrañamos 🖤
Varg rode to Euronymous House
One of the best of all times - he means it real. Learics in a way
I really enjoy seeing this video at 1080p 50 fps. Makes it somehow more badass than it already was.
Deserved a remaster. Too bad it wasn't recorded in higher quality to begin with, but legends can be distant like that. And I'm glad I still know the lyrics by heart.
the old quality adds some charm to it in my opinion
@@Yakkolino Oh of course. But there's so many old things we'll never see in good definition even though the technology was available at the time. I guess it's just the way things are.
