Lumpkin said:hi. i am a new fan of bathory, and i was wondering how you pronounce their name, is it pronounced like i am going to take a bath with ory?
Unfaithfully Metalhead said:you are correct... carnut's pronunciation will make it seem like the band is a Battery lol ... jkkk carnut... anyways its pronounced with a "th" and not "t"... if you just got into them you should get their 80's albums you might like those better.. wow didn't know Quarthon died.. what did he die of?![]()

It depends whether you like black metal or not, since they started as a black metal band, evolving later towards a very different epic and viking approach.sixxswine said:what are some recommended records by this band?

I read in the article in Guitar World, where they evolved from a Black Metal band to more this "Viking Metal" band. I "like" some Black Metal, obviously, it's nothing I wanna listen to day in day out, but it's good for a change of pace. I will look this band up. With all of you guys & gals on this board & all the various types of "heavy" that you listen to, it's great to discover bands.Fangface said:It depends whether you like black metal or not, since they started as a black metal band, evolving later towards a very different epic and viking approach.
I think only the albums Quorthon did in the mid 90s should be avoided (Octagon, Requiem), almost everything else is brilliant, especially Blood Fire Death, Hammerheart and Twilight of the Gods.
