Their debut is objectively their best
*sigh come on people you aren't fucking elementary school kids where every other topic it needs to be explained that edgy is NOT inherently bad unless it's dumb tryhard shit.
Quorthon never took shit seriously (check out his interviews) that level of retarded didn't happen in black metal until second wave.
Also if this ain't b8 and you actually wanna check out Bathory, start with either the self titled first album, Blood Fire Death, or Hammerheart and go from there. The Return and Under The Sign are great, too but not as accessible.
this was 1987
how is it edgy?

To embrace the batloard
You have to embrace the true spirit of metal
To embrace the true spirit of metal
You have to embrace the edge

>trying to take metal seriously
That's your mistake. I love metal, don't get me wrong, but there's no way you can take most of it seriously. Look at fucking Manowar. They're badass as hell but how the fuck do you look at that and not want to laugh?
Just learn to love the cheese.
