Full review
Quorthon and BATHORY continue right where "Nordland I" had left off, with the Viking Metal that this band had created back in the times of a "Hammerheart" and "Twilight Of The Gods" and which has inspired countless bands ever since and which they had taken up again with "Nordland Il".
1. Fanfare is a Viking-ish intro.
2. Blooded Shore, which brings us all the trademarks of this side of the BATHORY sound, measured tempo, majestic and epic melodies, Quorthons trademark vocals and the big choirs, the seemless continuation of the previous album.
3. Sea Wolf, Very Viking intro, again Quorthons trademark vocals, gives a very viking been on the sea feeling.
4. Vinland, starts with a killer riff, very majestic
5. Death And Resurrection Of A Northern Son, speeds things up a bit, also with vocal performance of Quorthon in the verses, excellent stuff indeed, especially as in the middle there is a completely acoustic and quite breakdown. Good stuff !
6. The Messenger, and its atmosphere, the samples of a horse riding, the way the melodies go, the vocals, classic.
7. Flash Of The Silverhammer, starts out with a killer riff, which continues throughout the song, at times enhanced by keyboards and some choir, even today a classic in the book of bathory!
8. The Wheel Of Sun, a masterpiece ... very majestic, and full of that viking atmosphere, Quorthons vocals just beyond it all. RIP Quorthon.
