BATHORY最重要的一张专辑,也是黑暗金
属历史上最重要的一张专辑!
也被誉为是第一张Modern Black Metal专辑。
这时的MayheM还刚刚出道,
BATHORY已经开始了自己历史上最颠峰的状态。
从这张专辑开始人们觉
得应该为这种音乐加入些键盘,也有了
更多的氛围铺垫和黑暗金属独有的旋律,
永远不能忘记的经典名曲Call From the Grave
(来自墓穴的召唤)
、Enter the Eternal Fire(跃入那不灭的火焰)…
录制粗糙,音色干硬,
其中演唱也变态、疯狂到极点,这一切都成为后来
所有黑暗金属乐队借鉴的元素。

当人们已经为心目中的BATHORY下着定义的时
候,Blood Fire Death
却给了人们新的感觉,毫无疑问的第一张维京
金属专辑。
封面设计和开场曲的风格就让歌迷知道这次非
同以前 –
气势磅礴的英雄出征序曲,专辑中Quorthon依
然保留了邪恶嘶哑的黑嗓音,
不过音乐中不失时机地加入史诗式Riffs,同时一些
曲目的速度放慢了,
让人们领略BATHORY的另一面。

BATHORY正式确立史诗金属的风格,乐队走
入全新的发展阶段,这
让全世界的Bathory迷们都大吃一惊。大量的清
喉吟唱、男声集体
合唱以及原音吉他,轻缓处创造出如梦似幻的
独特北欧风情,
激烈处带你会到那个基督教入侵维京民族的
盛大而又惨烈的战场
。繁复的曲式和和声、音效的运用,Quorthon借
此展示出了自己个人空间
及不俗的音乐才华,一个瑞典人关于英雄的
光荣与梦想尽展其中,
从这张专辑可以感受出Quorthon是一个民族自
豪感非常强的人,
他将自己的灵魂与思想渗透到歌词以及音乐的
每个细节。无话可说,经典名作 |

这张专辑依然是北欧史诗金属的风格的延续,
但是相对与前面的作品更
加低沉和悲伤,专辑的灵感来自于一出非常著
名的维京戏剧,
一个伤感的传说,音乐的整体协调性和歌词配
合,让你置身落日
余辉下的战场,战船上满是尸体,破碎的旗帜在风
中飘荡,满身血污的
战士们为自己死去的战友唱起英雄的挽歌,
尤其最后一
曲Hammerheart,
当军鼓敲响,众人合唱的时候,生命的逝去的痛苦
和战士为此自豪的对
比让人感动。这张专辑让更多的北欧金属乐队
重新确立了文化氛围在音
乐中的重要性。 | |
本来想贴call from the grave,可惜找不到连接。
这首在百度上找到的blood and iron
来自Twilight of the gods,
歌词如下:
O, so it is written son When all waters and land you see All around came to birth Man and beast was one And the gods of the sky Walked the face of the earth Few free and innocent Man strolled paths next to those Of beasts seeing no signs But stars in the sky Knowing of day and night Of rain and winds, hunger and fright But not of death nor of life While all was at ease with all Living creatures and beast and the gods of
the sky enjoyed the lavish riches of this world, giants rose out of their
caves and took to the skies challenging the gods for the
power of the universe. Only when the great halls of Valhalla s
tood aflame lighting up the worlds all around did the gods
wake up from their drunken sleep
,to speed through the heavens
and clash with the giants in the
greatest battle ever seen. Heads arms and legs of both giant
and god fell down upon
the earth and... The weapons...
The swords of shining metal...
And those who found them and
took these shining blades in hand
were only men, now man was the master of this world. The story tells of stormy skies Black clouds gathered up high And of lightning striking from a Burning bloodred sky The mountains crumbled to the seas Earth shook the worlds collide Ending the age of gods Giving birth to our time And man lived and learned The secret of steel Ore of earth - fire of sky Forged is blade of gods Blood and iron Blood and iron Blood and iron Blood and iron Blood and iron Blood and iron Blood and iron Blood and iron So the age to learn and to teach for man begins, the power to know the blood and iron discipline, and tell the story of how man was granted these shining blades of steel Knowing of the past she will know of the tomorrow and man shall reign, yes, even conquer other worlds and she will set sails on her starships sailing across the black space and become
the new gods of the skies. The skies... the skies... the skies...
the skies... the skies... the skies... the skies... Blood and iron.
血与铁,献给古今中国所有战死沙场的英灵
