Bathory - 'Twilight of the Gods' (audio)
There is a serpent in every Eden
Slick as grease and cold as ice
There is a lie in every meaning
Rest assured to fool you twice
In this age of utter madness
We maintain we are in control
And ending life before deliverance
While countries are both bought and sold
Holy writtings hokus-pokus
Blaze of glory and crucifix
Prepried costly credit salvations
TV-preachers and dirty tricks
Don't trust nobody
It will cost you much too much
Beware of the dagger
It caress you at first touch
O, all small creatures
It is the twilight of the gods
When the foundations to our existence
Begins to crumble one by one
And legislations protects its breakers
And he who was wrong but paid the most won
Even the gods of countless religions
Holds no powers against this tide
Of degeneration because we have now found
That there is no thrones up there in the sky
Run from this fire
It will burn your very soul
Its flames reaching higher
Comed this far there is no hold
O, all small creatures
It is the twilight of the gods
[Twilight of the gods
Twilight of the gods
Twilight of the gods
Twilight of the gods]

Η επική "στροφή" στον ήχο των Bathory με τον δίσκο "Blood Fire Death" (Οκτώβριος 1988) απέκτησε μεγαλύτερη στόχευση με το album "Hammerheart" που κυκλοφόρησε την άνοιξη του 1990 και η τριλογία ολοκληρώθηκε με το "Twilight of the Gods" που "βγήκε" το καλοκαίρι του 1991.
Με την συγκεκριμένη τριλογία οι Bathory επαναπροσδιόρισαν την επική "μεταλλική" τέχνη. Υπό την έννοια ότι την έφεραν σε άμεση αισθητική επαφή με το Ευρωπαϊκό συλλογικό ασυνείδητο.
Αν δεν υπήρχε το epic metal θα το είχαν ανακαλύψει οι Bathory. Η δεκατετράλεπτη ομότιτλη μουσική σύνθεση που "ανοίγει" τον δίσκο αποτελεί ένα από τα... επικότερα έπη στην ιστορία του heavy metal. Τι ατμόσφαιρα!
