Cos’è Il Black Metal?
Il Black Metal è un genere incredibilmente vasto, un crepuscolo oscuro ma poetico , un genere incredibilmente difficile da suonare. Nel 1984 suonare Black Metal era per di più un concetto astratto. I Venom tra il 1981 e il 1983 avevano coniato per la prima volta il termine black metal suonando un thrash particolarmente violento e di ispirazione satanica che fu ripreso dagli svizzeri Celtic Frost e dagli svedesi Bathory. I Bathory guidati dal leggendario Quorthon nel 1984 esordirono con il cd ononimo che accolse molti elogi ma anche molte critiche a causa dei contenuti dei testi di ispirazione satanica. Ma Quorthon non era un semplice satanista, era un uomo colto, un poeta oscuro, un grande musicista.
Nel 1985 esce questo capolavoro targato Bathory, un cd violentissimo e malvagio, un incredibile lavoro che aiutò a far nascere il vero black metal suonato all’inizio degli anni '90 da gruppi come Mayhem, Darkthrone e Emperor...
L’Album è un continuo massacro sonoro alle orecchie dell’ignaro ascoltatore, l’argomento principale è solo uno: Il male, in ogni sua forma. Per Capire cos’è il vero black metal penso che bisogna ascoltare quest’album, per capire quanto la musica può far provare emozioni bisogna ascoltare quest’album, per capire la grande semplicità di Quorthon bisogna ascoltare quest’album. Tutte le track possiedono una carica distruttiva ,”Bestial Lust” e “Total Destruction” sono due terribili gemme nere, forse la più bella track del cd è “The Return Of Darkness and Evil” dove una distruttiva batteria si alterna con parti melodiche. Grazie Quorthon per tutto quello che hai donato ai tuoi fan... GRAZIE DI CUORE!
Then the clouds of death shall gather
then the night shall always burn
then the ancient prediction comes true
and the bells of fate chaime
THE RETURN...
Elenco tracce e testi
02 Total Destruction (03:50)
[Recorded February 1985. Released on album "The Return", May 1985]
Twilight burn across the sky
Time has come the doom is near
Stillness rules this cloudless night
Armageddon is here
Woe to you
Earth and Sea
TOTAL DESTRUCTION
12 days of total eclipse
Yet the stillness rules this night of mist
But slowly clouds of death are forming
The time has come to Reap
Burning skies
Battle cries
TOTAL DESTRUCTION
The end of mankind universe
So many battles yet to fight
Take heed forever learn
When the bells chime THE RETURN...
Screams of fear
The doom is here
TOTAL DESTRUCTION
03 Born for Burning (05:13)
Haunting the cloudless black sky
Braver at night
Hidden as the lips of her c*nt
She is keeping out of sight
Dark as her closed eyelids
Her secret
She comes to you with a serpent's kiss
She has the power to foresee
She don't fear the flames
She smile at the fire
Whisper the words of spell
Without fear without fright
BORN FOR BURNING...
BORN FOR BURNING...
BORN FOR BURNING...
BORN...
She can't feel the pain
She gaze at the sky
In the greedy flames
She will burn tonight
The beauty burning
Like the moon at harvest
Her seared flesh falling apart
And feed the hungry flames
Where the flame still bite her thigh
She is not afraid to die
She will burn again tonight
(she will always burn)
But her spirit shall survive...
Dedicated to the witch Marrigje Ariens
Born 1521, Burned 1591 in Schoonhoven, Holland
04 The Wind of Mayhem (03:13)
Praying to the wind to return
Chant the heat of infernal lightning
Gaze at the sky and its poisoned clouds
Listen for the sound of thunder
Now the tide has changed...
Stand on the cliffsedge alone in the night
My hair is blowing freely in the Wind
Fell so cold yet my yearn give me heat
Raise my head to the sky and breath in
Now the time is right...
It brings us curse, lust, hate, damnation and death
Wail through darkness and bring evil
It squall it screams
Satanas is present but yet he is unseen
THE WIND OF MAYHEM
05 Bestial Lust (02:41)
She is open wide She is hard to please
She drives me fucking wild I want her on her knees
She floats and then insists I am hot and can't resist
She suck me to the core oooh I can't take no more
That Bitch
She turns me to a beast
OH BESTIAL LUST!
(C'mon) Bitch
Each tendon muscle rippling She drink my sove with greed
She fucks my helpless body and then she raises speed
She let her wet tongue roll I gasp and can't control
She is hot and drives me wild and still she is open wide
Just when this torture seems to end
She is there to drain my sove again
(Come on ride, to ride on me bitch)
06 Possessed (02:42)
[Recorded February 1985. Released on album "The Return", May 1985]
Witching hour bad moon is on the rise
I can't resist its infernal cold power
When it blaze into my eyes
Feel I am slowly changing
Begin to lose my track
Hatred poison my veins
I am cold and my heart turns black
I am POSSESSED
I am trapped in its icecold blaze
It drains the warmth from my soul
Feel the dread and my mind is in torment
And still its eye of death glow so cold
I am confused
Feel my strength slowly fading
Oh hear my cries for help and mercy
I am POSSESSED
10 Sadist (03:00)
I love to see you writhe in throe
The more you suffer my lust grows
I slit your throat and tear your flesh
My desire will be your death
SADIST (Tormentor)
I welter in blood I rape and slay
Stab sliver lacerate
so many lusts to satisfy
To still my hunger another must die
SADIST (Tormentor)
"But now the sand of time is running out"
I feel old (so cold)
Can hear the bell toll
So weak (must sleep)
Can hear my victims shout
Can't stand their cries their call
I gotta pay for my lusts...
They're dragging me down...
11 The Return of the Darkness and Evil (03:49)
A sorcery written in blood
Whispered by a Witch in the dawn
Summon the darkness pure evil and death
And gather the legions of scorn
The darkness possesses you your soul scream in vain
Tonight the Hellfire shall burn
Thunder and lightning the ancient prediction
The bells chime for Satan's Return...
(Blasphemy
Sorcery)
It's the RETURN of the darkness and evil
It's the RETURN of the fire and flame
It's the RETURN of my master Satan
It's the RETURN of desire and pain
Sacrifice a virgin to the flames of burning Hell
Black Witch of beauty recite the words of spell
Gather masses run in circles scream for mercy cry of pain
No mercy for the blessed in Hell you all will burn in lord Satan's name
Now descend from the burning blasting sky
Holding the reigns ride the night
Satan appear in full glory and pride
The raped souls of Heaven cries
Blasphemy
Victory
Desecration
Hell and damnation
It's the RETURN of the darkness and evil
It's the RETURN of the fire and flame
It's the RETURN of my master Satan
It's the RETURN of desire and pain
