fuck you all satanists . none can mess with us christians and especially me because i am different from the others. i am tough and i am not affraid of you at all...
Years later i discovered this song and the whole "Hammerheart" album. This song and it's story combined so well with that old comic book. It became the musical theme to it.
Even now i sometimes find myself thinking about those long gone wars and the irreversible consequences the advent of christianity brought. And at the end of that thought process i always fail to convince myself that it's ok. I am saddened. I just really think it should have never happened.
When i was a kid i had a comic book that featured a story about Lāčplēsis (the Latvian national hero), i read that one countless times. The visual style and the story of that comic just stuck in my head. I kept thinking about it all - how the christians came, how they subdued the ancient Baltic tribes etc. I guess i never even had a chance to become a christian myself. The death of the mythic hero was just too painful. And the modern christian bullshit is just as painful.
dont wonder only about scandinavia....wonder about the whole world...im from greece....but my beliefs are central-north europe....byzantium didnt make whole balkan christians by the sword??? do a good to humanity burn your local church...
Churches are part of our ancestor's culture. They shall stand tall for us to never forget that men stood against the invader's God and were slaved to his will. They are the symbol of our everlasting battle against those who seek to possess the mindof my people.
agree totally agree! hope one day the mighty ships shall set sail once more .... (thats a metaphor of course)but they will not leave us to see far from christianism....need many things to broke these chains....so much money and so much mind-control is based on it they cant leave us destroy the work of 2 millenias in some years....
Religion has lost his antique might these days...What now shall be the target of our wrath are those who build the new weapon of mass control. My finger points multinational corporations.
@breedinggoat Churches should not stand tall. Most of the ancient churches were built on the heathen holy areas. They simply took it over. Fucking shit should be burned to the ground, and the ashes pissed upon. Picked apart from from rock, make sure they can never be restored in the same place somehow.
@NikZak83 you might want to chill out bro i mean i like BATHORY and im a christian man and i no what this song is about its about hoiw christianity not welcomed there but its still a good song so ya
@NikZak83 You mistaken what i said there i like the song im just saying that im aware of what the lyrics are saying i like the song not the lyrics.basicly im a christian who likes metal.
@NikZak83 they came into our countries and they take from us our GODS... now they just destroying the world fucking Christians... Hail Bathory... HAIL 12 GODS OF OLYMPUS...
I actually did study the topic in one of my anthropology classes, and it is believed that the Vikings turning to Christianity MIGHT have a lot to do with their fall. There are many plausible causes, and religion was among the main ones.
Anyway, this song is a classic in Viking metal. Quorthon was a genius.

I'd like to hear a cover of this song where the vocals are sung rather than growled or rasped. The singing is really important to this track, in my opinion.
