Graveland_-_Thousand_Swords-Remastered-1995-PAHR

Epic. Glorious. Proud. Rousing.These are all words that can be used to describe this piece of music conjured forth in the days of December 1994. Yet they all fail to do it any justice, for this was and still is the finest expression of the pagan spirit in the realm of black metal. It is a musical monument to ancient heathen pride, Europe's lost heritage and a beacon pointing the way to reclaiming it.

In closing, "Thousand Swords" is cold, joyless, and unapologically morally corrupt. In other words, it's all that Black Metal should strive for!
