Quite simply, a genre defining masterpiece. It's hard to believe 30 years have passed since Quorthon dropped this slab of dark, ugly perfection. From the opening riff of Hades all the way to the final, tortured screams of War, Bathory crushes your senses with a relentless barrage of driving guitars, pounding drums and hellish vocals that must of had Venom shitting their pants back in '84. Quorthon would totally alter the band's sound after two more releases, but the influence of those early records long endured. Absolutely essential in every way.

Indeed it definitely is. I am really shocked this one hasn't gotten much attention on the forums. I listen to this album almost every single month.
