The first 3 albums are the equivalent of Darkthone's unholy trilogy: "Bathory" "The return..." "Under the sign of..." And nothing in bathory's catalouge compares to them in my opinion!!! For me personally the albums that stand out from the Viking era are "Hammerheart" "Twilight of the gods" Honorable mention "Blood Fire Death" (some viking ideas but still black metal for the most like the first trilogy) "Blood on Ice" (very good album with viking vibes from start to finish but still raging and brilliant!!!)
Bathory didn't invent black metal, but it improved it to the format that was world-wide by dozens of bands in the 80's after Slayer in 1983. In 1984 in the first wave of black metal, Bathory was the band that was ahead of all, the bands that emerged from August 1984 onwards by accessing the Scandinavian Metal Attack compilation and marveling at the complete album released in October of the same year. Years later it was the first band to give the world the theme "Viking metal", as other bands even addressed the subject, but not so deeply with Bathory. It's a shame Quorthon passed away in 2004, because if he were alive today, we would certainly have excellent material available. Greetings from Brazil!
Nordland I and II are my favorite Bathory albums. They obviously aren't as influential as Hammerheart or their black metal stuff, but as cohesive albums, start-to-finish, they are my favorites. Nordland really evokes a sense of adventure. An epic tale. They are really excellent "while doing something" albums like hiking or driving or drawing, or something you just want to put the album on and let it go. *5 stars* ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
@@blairjohnston5685I know right!?... And apparently he was hinting at dropping another pure black metal album in the very near future, kills me we never got to hear what that would've been ....
@@shaunshuping5406 yes absolutely. I felt he was only getting started. His song writing talents were starting to peak & I think another pure black metal release would have blown minds & found even more fans. It saddens me that his passing almost felt unnoticed. It was a huge loss & metal lost one of its greatest contributors. Watain brought me much joy wen they played some songs live. Made my night👹🤘
This moment is Forever. : ,,Spring is here and the ice breaks free The endless sky and open sea I will sail where the Raven will lead me Fly on black wings, high and free I shall return with the wind the day From high adventures, swelling sail Autumn red comes to Asa bay"
Mi madre me regaló este álbum cuando era un adolecente de 15 años. Realmente mi radicalidad no me dejó apreciarlo como lo merecía, ya que amaba la onda más pesada de Bathory. ... Tiempo después, ese disco me lo robaron, y hoy, con una mirada en retrospectiva, puedo valorar como nunca antes este grandioso trabajo, además de darme cuenta que la magnífica obra Bathory, ese gran proyecto, todo en su totalidad, es una obra maestra de principio a fin. Que todo está conectado desde el principio y que Bathory es una obra de arte. 🔥
EVEN REGRETTING THE LOSS OF SUCH A VIRTUOUS HUMAN BEING, EXCEPT FOR QUORTHON WHO EVEN STOPPING PHYSICALLY EXISTING HIS TIMELESS WORK WILL LAST FOREVER.
I remember ordering this album on Amazon in 2004. I didn't even know Q had died. It was a truly surreal experience for the first time in my metal career getting to hear a brand new Bathory release, and then finding out there was infact a Nordland II to follow my enjoyment of I. The funny thing is, when I found out Q had passed - it didn't hurt. I was so proud of how far his career had gone in such a short time, and I was so grateful for the experience of enjoying this album, that I couldn't help but feel at peace with the news. Thank you, Quorthon.
The word "genius" gets overused these days. Except for Quorthon, for whom it is not used enough. His death leaves a void that no one else has the genius to fill. It's taken me 18 years to get this far: instead of looking at the void, and cursing the Lord of Death, look at the world. The gods looked down at this benighted mortal realm and said: "they have received more of Quorthon's gifts than they deserved. Time to call our brother home to halls on high".
The apex of Bathory career.Excellent production,coldness atmosphere and breathtaking landscape surrounded where music emerges from. As it gains Nordic and epic form to be comtempled by splendidly gorgeous enchantment.
I think Nordland I & II would make a good soundtrack for Vinland Saga. The atmosphere, the lyrics, and the theme is literally perfect. Might read the manga while listening to the albums
Moreso the other way around. Black rose immortal was released in 1996 and this album is from 2002. Really good ear though, its a nice homage to another great band!

Isso é muito bom!! Super autêntico!! Dá vontade de mergulhar nas sombras geladas do mundo nórdico e passar o dia ouvindo isso.
Mágico realmente autêntico nada igual estou viciado
Can I say that this is Bathory's masterpiece?
Can I say all of them are?
The first 3 albums are the equivalent of Darkthone's unholy trilogy:
"Bathory"
"The return..."
"Under the sign of..."
And nothing in bathory's catalouge compares to them in my opinion!!!
For me personally the albums that stand out from the Viking era are
"Hammerheart"

"Blood on Ice" (very good album with viking vibes from start to finish but still raging and brilliant!!!)
This one and the part 2 are the firsts Bathory i bought in 2003. Favorites with Hammerheart.

Yes, hiking a brutal path up a mountain while listening to Nordland is one of the most powerful experiences I've ever had
And it absolutely breaks my heart that we never got to hear part lll 😭

So underappreciated in the bathory discography, RIP Quorthon
Never forget our forebears
Mother Earth Father Thunder will always make me cry

Que bueno onda por tu jefita!
You were a GOD who walked on water, Quorthon.
EVEN REGRETTING THE LOSS OF SUCH A VIRTUOUS HUMAN BEING, EXCEPT FOR QUORTHON WHO EVEN STOPPING PHYSICALLY EXISTING HIS TIMELESS WORK WILL LAST FOREVER.
Still no one played such heart-tearing guitar solos than Quorthon did. You can recognize His style from miles. Eternally missed Quorthon!
Passion and heart put into music and vocals, powerful album of unmatched beauty.
it's damned amazing
I love Nordland I, II, welcome from Colombia
También de Colombia! Larga vida al metal!
Colombiano en Australia! Saludos!
I feel the power coursing through my veins this album has power no doubt about that one. I feel like i finally found my home.

Bathory Nordland I & II, such a dramatic and grand epilogue.

Long live Bathory 🤘
Excellent album
Bathory is good
This album is pure poetry 🤘❄🤘
Still the best Metal band of all time \m/ Hail Quorthon
here it is! the music that held me strong during very hard times still does it again to this day! Hail Victory!
Hoy 3 de junio ya son 18 años sin Quorthon,el fundador de Bathory,uno de los pioneros del black metal y del viking metal

Ring of Gold- hidden gem of the great Bathory
The apex of Bathory career.Excellent production,coldness atmosphere and breathtaking landscape surrounded where music emerges from.
As it gains Nordic and epic form to be comtempled by splendidly gorgeous enchantment.
THE black metal band 🖤🤘😈🤘
Though THE RETURN is my fave, this one is to kneel down for all it is💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Damn this is so damn good!!!
All hail the lord Quorthon and the Bathory hordes!! lml
One of mein Favoriten Albums ❤❤❤❤❤
Winterblot is just amazing... shivers, so glad I'm finally getting into Bathory
MAGNIFICENT
Este álbum es una obra de arte.
Quorthon is the ....MIST . GOD. MYTH! Its unbeliavable. ONE man, so much ...full of life !
RING OF FIRE!!!
massive classic tone. love it
What a wild trajectory this band went on from beginning to end. Black Thrash > Power Viking metal. Absolutely mind blowing.
It's not a band
They realized the antithesis to Christianity is not satanism, but their native gods
Beautiful Barhory💪🤘🎵
Valhallaaaaaaa🔥🤘
By far my favorite cd! The epicness depicted within the music is unrivaled. Thank you for this piece of greatness.
incredibly good album
It is an album not a cd
viking´s heart
Rewelacja :)
Obras como essa fazem a vida valer a pena 🔥🖤
Nei
Epicness overload!!! I remember the day it was released and heard it for the first time like it was yesterday!!!🤘🔥 Immortal Quorthon
This is definetly one of the most epic albums I have ever heard!
album majestuoso
I think Nordland I & II would make a good soundtrack for Vinland Saga. The atmosphere, the lyrics, and the theme is literally perfect. Might read the manga while listening to the albums
Best album ever!!!👍💪🖤
Ring of gold... que se puede decir... tacharlo de algo increíble e impresionante es un axioma
amazing album. Epic! Left speechless
Masterpiece dangit!
Fica a sensação de não sabermos o que Quorthon iria fazer a seguir...🤟🏻
Бог нордического метала!!!
брат
my favorite is "Foreverdark Woods"
Great choice! My favorite is Seawolf (from Nordland II)
same here!
Absolutly!👍💪
Quorthon BOSS!!!!!!!
you too Chuck
Ian Stuart, also BOSS.
Bathory your best!
Quorthon returns in flesh to slay thine enemies, and all whom deemed worthy by his side
Essential for my Mount & Blade Viking Conquest soundtrack.

Hail the Hordes \m/
Que bien!
⚓ Bathory 🙌🏿💀🇧🇷 -!-
3:50 if Im not wrong Opeth used this riff in their Black rose immortal song
Moreso the other way around. Black rose immortal was released in 1996 and this album is from 2002. Really good ear though, its a nice homage to another great band!
