Bathory, Who have been labled the first viking metal band, started in 1983 in sweeden.

 

Heres the only video they ever released. (wich by the way was payed for entirely by the lead singer Quarthon)

I just started listening to them a few months ago, after stubling across them on youtube. Since then i've really started to like them. So i decided to start a thread to see if anyone else on here shares my view of them.

Yup, a true legend.

I've never heard of em but they arent too bad at all. Though that kind of music is a little cheesy to me :P

edit:weird i quoted my first post, sorry

Anyone else like them?
