HOLY FUCK, I HOPE ABBATH NEVER COMES BACK BECAUSE THAT NEW ALBUM IS KILLER.

of course they do goofy poses. they dont take themselves too serious. they are having fun.

Immortal has no bad albums 🤘

Sons of Northern Darkness is an absolute masterpiece from start to finish, perfect Black Metal album for me

What I like about Immortal is that they focus on being good musicians making solid music, not on being super-kvlt. I also really like the witty tongue-in-cheek aspect of their presentation. They are not pretentious and don't take themselves too seriously.

Immortal is so damn good its hard to choose a favorite album.For me its either Sons of northern darkness, at the heart of winter or pure holocaust.

At the heart of winter is the most memorable and has a great sound

"Demon-Ass"

At the heart of winter is A fucking masterpiece. I love that last song! Come on man!

My favorite Black Metal band by far, they make this perfect 'cold winter' music, it's not just music, it actually feels like an essence of winter of sorts. Immortal is amazing! At the Heart of Winter, Damned in Black and Sons of Northern Darkness my favorite Black Metal albums! Also the comical part is what makes them even greater! It resembles Loki in a way, not just generic "evil" like Gorgoroth or Behemoth, which feels like a bit too much in my opinion.

"Years of silent sorrow never did anything for me" Thats your own fault bro.

I am almost 60 years old and Immortal has been full on assaulting me for a loooooong time! I absolutely love them and always will!! 🎸🥁🔱⚫️🇧🇻❄️🍻

The perfect evening: Listening to Immortal, a bath and some demon ass!

At the Heart of Winter is my favorite Immortal album. I love the sound, and some of the riffs are fantastic.

Thank god for that tendinitis, otherwise we wouldn't have had At the Heart of Winter, which is their best album imo, and one of the crown achievements in the Black metal genre

Diabolical Full Moon mysticism is so good

Great job here. Before gate keepers get all pissy... I am 42 years old, I was there when all this was brand new, liked it, and still do. With that said, here is the truth. Watching a well done video (like this one) about the history of such bands is honestly 10 times out of 10 better than actually listening album to album in almost every case. Trust me. The allure is litterally the history of it all. Great video and this is my 3rd time playing it back. Permo Frost!!!!

At the heart of winter album has the best guitar riffs ever. Something you can tap your foot to

I've lost count of how many times I nearly pissed myself from laughter watching "call of the winter moon". It's on par with classic Charlie Chaplin and Monty Python.

Loved Immortal in the beginning.. then i left.. sons of Northern Darkness was a glorious return!! Thanks for your video🏴🎩

This channel is so underrated You deserve more subscribers for the effort you put in the "retrospective" videos Keep it up \m/

Humor in metal is great I love it

Dude, you've definitely watched too much BLUE SHREK as a toddler! 😂😂

At The Heart of Winter is the greatest guitar album of BM of all time.

Re: On Blizzard Beasts, they wrote the album while on tour with Napalm Death. You can completely hear the influence....

If you drink every time he says "very very" you'll be drunk in a couple of minutes

Northern Chaos Gods is amazing

Immortals DVD which I lost in a bad storage deal was awesome, I very rarely got to watch it & I'd like to get another copy.

Battles in the North is a CLASSIC album.

Great video man

Immortal are brilliant song writers. I don't know how to explain it but they know how to create an awesome, epic atmosphere without resorting to keyboards. They also have an exotic sound and their guitar work reminds me of Trey Azagthoth at times, and I love their guitar tone. They're definitely one of the most original and talented of the early Norwegian black metal bands. I've always loved At The Heart of Winter. Every damned track on that album is exceptional imo.

I'll always defend Immortal. Always.

When I think about black metal the first album I think of is Son’s of northern darkness

I love the retrospectives about the bands

I have to dissagree here mate, At heart of winter is my favorite album by them, closely followed by the first album. Agree about Damned in Black though, sounded way too messy overal. The constant falling snow was a nice touch though

immortal is back

i always liked Immortal because i felt like they got "the joke". they were always a solid band but there was just a tiny hint of a pisstake there too

It cracks me how you say Blashyrkh!!

Their early stuff under Amputation is f*ckin good shit

It's funny how you and a lot of people say that you wouldn't want to see how Immortal would turn out without Abbath, but the new Immortal album released by Demonaz pretty much shits on Abbath's album and it is as good as any other Immortal album. I think this shows that Demonaz was a big driving force for the band even after he stopped playing guitar, and that in all of those years his contribution was a lot more that just writing lyrics and being a manager

The music video for “Call Of Winterdemons” is the cheesiest video you’ll ever see. It’s impossible to take them seriously if you watch that video.

Sons... is great. Blows away the two albums before it and after it.

Immortal are awesome. Hanging out with them was.a experience. They are just metal heads who want to have fun and never take themselves seriously.

My #1 favorite Black Metal band, period. Diabolical Fullmoon Mysticism was absolutely great but when I heard Sons of Northern Darkness I fell for them

Commenting in 2023. I love all of Immortals albums including their newest releases with Demonaz. Also love Abbath’s albums.

I love this band Great review and loving this channel more and more.

It’s pronounced Blah-Shirk just so u know.

I'm patiently waiting for the new Immortal album, it's been a long time

Beyond the North Waves is one of the best metal songs of all time.

Yeah, you're just plain wrong about At The Heart Of Winter.

Blizzard Beasts reminds me a lot of "Altars of Madness" from Morbid Angel.

well thats what you get when you live 10 months out of the year under snow. you go bananas. it sounds like a frog is ear fuckin you

It's like americans see a foreign word, give whole 2 seconds thought and pronounce it as wrong as possible and never think twice about it.. "Blashierk". You _could_ even try.

The drums for Pure Holocaust were played much slower and sped up during mastering hence the trebley sound, if internet rumors are anything to go on.

So, I read in an interview with Demonaz that Abbath actually learned to play guitar from him. The guitar-styles of both are so different, that I wouldn't go so far to say that abbath is a better guitar player since he learned from Demonaz

Another awsome band

Damned in black is great

Gonna have to disagree with you on At The Heart of Winter, especially with Years of Silent Sorrow. Some of the best BM out there in my opinion. Couldn't agree more on Sons of Northern Darkness though. Fantastic video as always

I’ve always wondered whatever happened to Iscariah after the band split? I’ve searched the internet on every possible site but found nothing. Anyone know anything?

I think Demonaz got the last laugh on this one. After resurrecting the Immortal name, he released Northern Chaos Gods (and recently another one I haven't heard yet) which, in my humble opinion, blows away anything Abbath did. It's like Pure Holocaust, but even better

And I must disagree with you about the new Abbath album. It rocks, course i'm not a strict black metaller, but good metal is good metal and I love the new album!

Immortal is amazing

The grim tyrants from the frostbitten kingdom of Blashyrkh will rule this place alone, under a frozen sun, beyond the Mountains of Might, breathing clearest wind, at the heart of winter, until it all falls. 🤘🤘🤘

Calming music for babies.

Any chance of doing a Judas Iscariot or Abigor episode?

Killer job.

I'd like to see Behemoth next. Their demo stuff and the debut kick ass.

Blizzard Beasts is a "weak album?" LOL...OMG.

I liked Abbath's self titled album. Ocean of Wounds and Root of the Mountain are friggin' epic.

every time you mispronounce blashyrkh my soul dies a little

Immortals new album is awesome

You're going to have to update this soon. Immortal completed their new album and (for some reason) is waiting for a release.

It is my understanding that they could play circles around the other bands that were doing the fires. I think when that was happening, that was the time they started to do the WWF thing. I think of Immortal as the real deal.!

Damned in Black has my favorite Immortal riffs, its almost Thrash at points.

does anyone know why ministry of music took down his reviews?

downFEEEll ChEEnel, thats how its pronounced?

No no no 😢😅 At the heart of winter is actually one of my favorites

I'm the opposite with damned in black. Didn't like it as much when I first bought it then here recently found it at a used cd store and said listened to it more and more and have grown to love it.

What is the intro music right at the start of this video ?

The first album is their best

I miss Abbath out front on vocals. Demonaz just doesn’t do it for me. Sons Of Northern Darkness is the best album they ever did ( as well as At The Heart Of Winter)

Umm, Abbath's favorite band was KISS and he got the fire deal from some due name Gene Simmons. From someone who likes Bathory, let's set the record straight...in caps. FUCKING QUARTHON CALLED HIMSELF "ACE" AFTER ACE FRHELY - KISS. QUARTHON BREATHED FIRE AFTER GENE SIMMONS. All of you fucking morons .....KISS inspired much of the imagery of Black Metal. Venon's favorite band: KISS.

All very interesting aspects, thanks! Though I have to disagree with much your opinions !

Why no mention of mountains of might? Easily one of their best songs

Duck in TYRANTS

And WHAT! DAMNED IN BLACK IS SIIIIIICK!

Omg for a second I thought that annoying ass echoey voice was going to be the narration. This channel has been known to beat a joke totally into the ground but thankfully not this time.After first couple of minutes extremely enjoyable.

SULIMANTIMEBAAABIEEE!!1!!!

Did you say that Bathory played live a few times, or did I misunderstand?

There is No right or wrong answer for which is the best Immortal album. I think you are understating In the Heart of Winter. That is in the top 10 Black Metal records of All Time!!! In my opinion. I Love the channel Bro, can you do a video of Fleshgod Apocalypse

Whats the intro song (the non immortal track)

My two favorite albums: Battles in the North + At the Heart of Winter ! I really really don't like All Shall Fall, but Northern Chaos Gods is kinda nice. I agree that Damned in Black is pretty much Thrash Metal, but At the Heart of Winter mostly reminds me of Heavy/Power metal. You didn't give enough credit to Damned in Black. It was a perfect product of it's age. Stuck Black Metal to Thrash Metal when other bands stuck to less than ideal musical ventures. In the end, the material is an excellent product both to own and to see live. You mentioned the two solo projects, but didn't include the "spinoff-band" called "I". It's like Sons of Northern Darkness-Lite. I consider the worst album Blizzard Beasts. Honestly Abbath and Demonaz are just two goofballs who probably aren't actually in a grudge, and Immortal, if continued, is best with BOTH of them in the band and on stage instead of any other way. They could even both do vocals at the same time intertwined, and they could definitely both write songs. It doesn't even matter who plays guitar and bass live. And Horgh pretty much earned being considered the third most important member after all the help he had done over the years. As for a possible additional musician, the Enslaved guys seemed willing to be helpful on and off. And Abbath has his Motörhead project called Bömbers where he could probably ask a guitarist to help out. Immortal is the Manowar of black metal. Whenever and wherever I looked around, Immortal always united each and every group no matter the differences. Every SANE metalhead likes at least something from this band.

How do you know Abbath did the drums on that record if everything is credited to the other guy? Was he embarrassed of his performance or something?

VOISINES

FERMIERS

also immortal are working on a new one with demonaz on vocals should be out within six months to a year as posted.

Why does nobody talk about the I album?

Abbath and Demonaz together were more than the sum of their parts. I really hope they bury the hatchet and reunite someday. The new Immortal stuff is technically good, but it lacks Abbath's charisma. Demonaz should release it as solo material. Just my opinion.

Ah, yeah. A-bath and Demon-ass in Blishiyrk

whats the song you open up these videos with?
