See his star ablaze his children On the night the flames reach for the sky Night is comed to enter the never ending burning fire Onto you all his word is given Fear not reach to take his hand Hear our master calling us his children Eternal life is given death withdrawn As wolves among sheep we have wandered Victory lies beyond their spit and scorn Even the heavens shall burn when we are gathered Now when the flames reach for the sky
See, man, if you listen to this and then MetallicA FIGHT FIRE WITH FIRE, you see that this is a kinda rip off. but still Metallica from KILL'EM ALL TO MASTER OF PUPPETS and even AJFA was kick ass.
@jfkdjfd wow, you are saying this ripped off from Metallica? What an idiotic statement. Metallica is nothing in talent when comparing to this. I don't even know why Metallica is in a Bathory video, they are not the same style at all.
@jfkdjfd I see no relation. It may have a similar rythm, but its slight it ends within ten seconds of the song. It does not mean that this is a rip off of Metallica.
@bubbajenkins123 But he's right, still Fight Fire with Fire remains the Heaviest Metallica song and early Metallica works especially the first 3 with Burton still very respected by any old school Thrasher. Bathory has taken inspirations from Metallica, Venom, Kreator, Slayer on this album but brought the music beyond the Thrash and inspired the second generation of Black Metal bands like Mayhem, Darkthrone and Immortal. Blood Fire Death is a Milestone on Metal history, RIP Quorthon.
Fed up with the religious significance the "satanists" and the "evangelical right" place on music...the reality is most of these artists are trying to say religion is crap...simple as that
Check Aphex Twin (legendary electronic genious musician) "complex mathematical eguation" . If you analyse the track in a spectrogram software a demon face apears. Now its common knowledge how he used pictures in sound but at the time when this was first discovered people where amazed in a seeing "david coperfield disapearing elephant trick" type of way =)
@edwads74 i totally respec quorthon but i don't believe that the current pattern is a proof of his intelligence.. not at all...i prefer the lyrics of liberty and justice and that kind of stuff...they are way more meaningful to me...
Listening to this in 2012 and still going... Metal is just so shitty nowadays... I KNOW!! YES there's still good bands out there!!

Be silent listen to the wind crying out the
Answer to all mankind call from other
Side speach of horned divine
To end your search in hope to find
As sure night divides the day and as sure day divides the night
Raging flames is allthat awaits us on the other side
Doomed the very moment he calls

Creed of eternal life I swore
Held my candle of life to the void
Risen from the dead I deaths powers wed
In the name of the one with horns on head
Sleep of eternity withdrawn as dark upon
The life of mine drew the very end so near
The price another life the gospel of the
Horned one to spread shore to shore
Eternally his words let hear

No they're not, but listen to Fight Fire With Fire and then this, similar style and composition.

The first letter of each line in each verse winds up spelling "Christ the Bastard son of Heaven" . Look it up, Quorthon was a genius.
