Welcome to Metal Album Warfare Fridays here on the channel and tonight we have an awesome battle of one of the most classic bands of all time with Bathory-Self Titled Vs The Return Of Darkness And Evil, or just The Return if you prefer.

Bathory was released in 1984 on Black Mark Productions
The Return was released in 1985 on Black Mark Productions
Alright now I don’t think this band needs much of an introduction. However Quorthon created something we had never ever expected or seen before in the early 80s.

Something a lot more sinister, foreboding, dark and downright evil and this genre would forever become known as “Black Metal” now I know what a lot of you are gonna say… that it was venom… well youre wrong. Venom was never Black Metal at all.

The band played dirty thrash metal with satanic lyrics and imagery which does not make a band black metal at all. Bathory was the first one to have the LO-FI production, screeching vocals and higher pitched guitar sounds and simplistic raw drum work.

Sure hellhammer and celtic frost definitely helped in the creation of the genre but when it comes to pure black metal? Bathory in my eyes are the closest thing to it in the 80s with it really taking its shape on 1987s “Under The Sign Of The Black Mark” which to this day remains a quintessential black metal record!
