Reviews for Bathory - Hammerheart:


One of the greatest albums of all time and the first ever viking album to appear. The sound is very lousy but this is the only remark that I can make about that CD. The music itself is absolutely, totally mesmerizing. Viking metal at its greatest heights.

Review by: Beyto



Excellent album, it sounds very raw and authentic. Just listen to the first song - acoustic quitars, the sound of waves, soft vocals - then the guitars break the silence and an extremely heavy and intense song begins. The same goes for Baptised In Fire & Ice, I think this is the most powerful song ever written, it just makes you scream BAPTISED! IN! FIRE AND ICE.

Yeah gimme more of these. This is for sure one or even THE one bathory masterpiece. The majestic power of the songs developing more and more until they hit the sky with the glorious One road to Asa bay. This album is definitly one of the masterpieces of Viking metal, and if you look at other Bathory albums like Blood fire death you must admit that Bathory is the fucking king of viking metal!

This album can probly be called the first of the viking metal. Quorthon realy put a part of his soul into the music that was set into the making of this album. From its darkened lyrics, to is majestic landscapes of sound. An influencel album to probly all who now play viking metal. From the first track to the last track, you can feel the cold bitter winter of the scandanavian continent threw the music and words.

The first masterpiece. A must-have!!! One of the greatest albums ever! This album is a journey from the beginning to its end. All ending in a grande finale, the classic "One Rode to Asa Bay" (Yes, one of the best songs ever). It is raw, intense and with brillant melodies. An all time classic and a masterpiece in metal history.
