Double album on black vinyls

Along with its nearly as seminalcompanion release (Vol. 2), Jubileum, Vol. 1 features the absolutehighlights from the career of Sweden’s trailblazing Bathory — aband not only responsible for launching Scandinavia’s black metalscene, but for inventing the often intersecting subgenre of Vikingmetal. Focusing on the band’s first six albums, Jubileum, Vol. 1avoids the chronological order approach and proceeds to mix andmatch its tracks at will, but this is perhaps for the better givenBathory’s wide range of metallic styles. Getting things started aretwo premiere recordings that, for one reason or another, were leftoff those classic mid-period albums. The instrumental “Rider at theGate of Dawn” from 1987 was possibly a little bit ahead of itstime, while 1989’s “Crawl to Your Cross,” although recorded a meretwo years later, was conversely behind in terms of subject matter.Paired here, they work just great. “Sacrifice,” Bathory’s extremelyVenom-derived (down to the Cronos-like grunts) submission to 1984’scareer-launching compilation Scandinavian Metal Attack is next, andfrom here on out “black to Viking” metal evolution really takesover, with the transitional “Dies Irae” setting up the suitablydramatic “Through Blood by Thunder.” Another rare demo recording,1984’s brutally basic “You Don’t Move Me (I Don’t Give a Fuck),”then precedes what many consider “ground zero” of the Viking metalmovement: Blood Fire Death’s opening tandem of “Oden’s Ride OverNordland” and “A Fine Day to Die” — both still as awesome to theears as the day they were first presented to the world in 1988. Thesecond half of Jubileum, Vol. 1 carries on in similar fashion,alternating vivid examples of utmost primitivism like first andsecond album favorites “War” and “Sadist” with third LP refinementslike “Enter the Eternal Fire” and “Equimanthorn,” and, of course,very mature offerings from the subsequent trio of Viking metalalbums like “Song to Hall Up High,” “Under the Runes,” and “BloodFire Death.” In summary, pretty much everything that should be hereis, and what isn’t can be found on the nearly as indispensable Vol.2 — get them both.
