Battles In The North

This an early classic of Norse Black Metal. Im not quite sure what Abbath and Demonaz were upto with some of the stupidest corpsepaint ever and stomping about like they were in a shampoo advert but it makes this CD one of the all time greats.

Starting off like an avalanche or a fat fucker covered in cooking pots falling down a few miles of stairs at 100Mph and continuing in the same way through the next, awesomly titled 'Grim and Frostbitten Kingdoms' all the way to the final anthemic sortie into Immortal's wierd world of Blashyyrkh.

Its a love it or hate it album, no question about that but the rawness of the production, bad english and tounge in cheek humour make a great mix and it seems to have made Battles in the North into one of the best and most original Black Metal albums ever made.
