5.0 out of 5 stars vicious snarling hatred atop a mountain of doom, you cannot contain the extremism and blackness of this release
Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2015

Essential black metal album from the days when there wasn't any yet. I really believe this is the first full, proper black metal album or extreme metal album. 1984. Apparently this was a bit of a one-off from Quarthon that just happened to find success, ragingly so, so he would continue to pop these out through the 80s. And what a gift!

I like how hard this music is, its nihilistic non-melody. It makes a lot of other metal, especially the popular thrash of the day, seem naff and expected, boring and redneck (I'm talking about Metallica and Megadeth). It even outdoes Slayer, even if I still like them a bit.

American metal fans would do well to catch up on the genius of European metal at the time. I know this surprised me. It's now one of my very favorite albums along with other Bathories.

One of my all time favorite albums, Bathorys debut never disappoints despite its lack of high quality studio sound. The origins of black metal can be found on this eerie album. Cd arrived in great condition as described

Bathory, named after Elizabeth Bathory, serial slaughterer, and psychopath. The name is only adequate. Clocking in at a little over 26 minutes, this might, perhaps be the most influential Black Metal album of all time. This one is very short and to the point. You'll find all of Black Metal's trademarks, screeching vocals, pummeling drums, and super fast guitar riffs and solos. The subject matter of the lyrics is very fun and not to be taken seriously. With songs like "Raise The Dead" and "Reaper", you'll find that horror movie type of theme throughout the album. Also, I might add that the lyrics are absolutlely great: "Beyond the mountains, where the wind cries out its pain, Deserted valleys where the darkness always reigned" (Hades). I can't get enough of that kind of stuff. Anyways, if you're curious about Black Metal and want to know where to start, look no further than Bathory's self-titled debut.

4.0 out of 5 stars Black as Black can be perhaps

The beginning of the first two Bathory albums are to me a dark world in it's blackest forms, the howling winds....whatever is going on sounds like some dungeon below a castle or cave deep out in the country where evil dwells to me. The sound that comes forth is not all that uncommon, yet perhaps faster, darker than anything at least I had heard.
Comparable to Venom, and to me even Motorhead in speed...even at time eclipsing the speed barrier set by such bands....plus the raspy growl of demons on the hunt. It has that black metal label I guess, but I can listen to this along with early Slayer, the first Megadeth Cd, and Celtic Frost of course along with Venom and Motorhead and it all blends nicely into an extreme metal pit.

Whatever you call it "Black Metal" seems most often used, this one can be really raw and repetitive at times of course, young band and times limit their output in the first CD, even the second one, but it is pure evil at times they seem to have created. I find it hard to believe this stuff was even allowed to be created by such a young group of men. Not for sales that's for sure, but for someting influential and entertaining (and frightful), you aren't gonna find much around this time that equaled this release.
