This is the album i was waiting for from Bathory..it is my absolute favourite from Quothorn. Hammerheart lead up to it, but they have since never topped it.Symphonic Viking Metal at its best!

Once apone a time this group sang "Satanic" themes and possessed a Venom-esque sound, but not no more... Their singer "Quorthon" clearly went through a very personal odyssey some years ago. He began to re-discover the pagen heritage of his ancestral homeland, and it must have been a fairly shattering revelation as BATHORY has never been the same since.Together with the previous 2 releases "Hammerheart" and "Blood Fire Death, Twilight Of The Gods" fills the last spot of an incredible trilogy.

BATHORY'S sound is more akin to 19th Century romantic opera than any modern style. While the Wagnerian choruses of the last LP "Hammerheart", have here been transformed into hymn-like primeval chants. BATHORY'S adaptation of a 1914 classical piece by Gustav Holst, now coupled with stirring Odinist lyrics, the result, a "Heathen Anthem" for the northen European people of the 1990's. Anyone of this heritage who has shed the shackles of Christianity could hardly resist the power of this album!
