Bathory - Enter The Eternal Fire

Great song by Bathory!

[Recorded September 1986. Released on album "Under The Sign Of The Black Mark",
May 1987]

Lyrics:

Leave the world of mortals to walk into the mist to stalk unto the other side
Plains of otherness
The utter emptiness
Where time have ceased and dark and light collide
Crossing the river of death and water cold
Slowly walking up the bridge
The jewelled bridge I walk for what seems a lifetime
In the night it's jewels glow
There on the other side
On shore of no return
The one for me awaits
Cannot avoid the eyes
In which the fire burns
Comed this far it is too late

And He calls my name
First a whispering then louder
And he wants me to follow
And to Enter the Eternal Fire......

I walk this endless night
His eyes the only light
Repeatedly he whispers my name
Fingers move and twist
Through crimson thick dark mist and voices cry of agony and pain
Close now to his kingdom
The bleak world dark and still
I follow the voice whispering my name
Approach the gate of sin
Opened up to let me in and there, He stand in flames
The price now I must pay for eternity my soul his claim
For years of pleasures, victory and gold
The one who stand in flames
Now rise and walk my way and reach out for my soul

And He calls my name
First a whispering then louder
And he wants me to follow
And to fall down. The Eternal Fire......

I stand at the jaws of the pit
The heat scorch my flesh
The fall seem never to end
My hair burn
My eyes can't see
The flames slowly eat my soul
The pain tears my mind
Hear my cries oh Lord
Have mercy oh Lord
This can't be
Raging flames all over me
Inferno of heat
Oh no, oh no, oh noooooo, noooooo, noooooo..

[CountQvorthonBathory]

This track is the bridge between the early and later Bathory styles.

[elbardo1977]

The best Bathory's song ever.RIP Quorthon!!!

[yeoldecouchpotato]

this song sounds exactly like every album of Immortal since At the Heart of Winter. The influences bathory had on that band are just blatant. not a bad thing. 

[MrDodstink]

And he calls my name first whispering then louder...AVE Bathory!!!

[JeffreyAgente]

Has anyone noticed this sound better in 240p? How strange...

[JeffreyAgente]

@JimWorms Here's another one from Brazil. Hail The Hordes! \,,/

[Slaughterofbitch666]

TOTAL WORSHIP

[StillOnMars]

Quorthon never dies. He cries for death in his grave...

[Sabbathman1979]

This song means so much to me...it's one of the essential metal epics that I've listened to with my good friends. I think this song is the arrival anthem for when Quorthon opens the mammoth golden gates to Valhalla, greeting metalheads with big pint in his hand and welcoming them to step in to the hall of the gods...

[StillOnMars]

let there be FIRE!!!

[JimWorms]

Awesome, great song. Hail From Brazil!!!!

[CthulhuDarkLord]

The atmosphere this song creates is so amazing... It gives me the creeps, in a good way!
