Product information "BATHORY - Katalog · BLACK TAPE"

Black music cassette.

Background information über 'Katalog'

This compilation tape showcases the legendary Swedish black metal pioneers Bathory at their most essential, collecting some of their most devastating tracks across their influential career. "Katalog" serves as a perfect entry point for newcomers while offering longtime devotees a carefully curated selection of the band's most crucial moments. From the infernal opener "Lake Of Fire" to the epic Nordic mythology of "Oden's Ride Over Nordland" and "A Fine Day To Die", this collection demonstrates why Quorthon's vision became the blueprint for an entire genre.

The tape format feels particularly appropriate for Bathory's raw, uncompromising sound - there's something about the analog warmth and slight hiss that perfectly complements the band's primitive yet powerful approach. Tracks like "One Rode To Asa Bay" and the massive "Twilight Of The Gods" suite showcase the band's evolution from pure black metal fury into more atmospheric, Viking-themed territories. The compilation flows beautifully, balancing the early satanic aggression with the later epic compositions that would influence countless bands in the years to come.

For fans of:
Venom, Celtic Frost, Mayhem, Darkthrone, Emperor and Immortal
