Thousand Swords, mile stone in the history of Black Metal, and black diamond in history of Graveland. Pure, Unclean Black Metal with elementals of folklore and middle-age music. between howling wolves and dancing witches. The act of pure rebellion against Christianity. The idea of this album was awaking of the ancient spirits of ancestors, to stand with them against the religion of light. With Thousand Swords Graveland started his march to War, war with hypocrisy and false prophets.

Graveland – Thousand Swords. Label: Isengard Distribution – A I 01, Isengard Distribution – AI 01. Format: CD, Album, Reissue. Once upon a time I wanted to drink some water from the river, but there was only blood in the river! The earth trembled, far from me kettle drums and war horns resounded. One sword to behead the white ruler sitting on the white throne in vatican. One sword for the ruler, who will come and unite us under the sign of cross with broken arms. Elven swords to behead eleven lords and rules of the land united under the blue banner.
Thousand Swords (6:40) instrumental. GRAVELAND in the rehearsal room in 1995 preparing the recording of the cult "Thousand Swords" album. Released 20 years later by Those Opposed. Session mastered by Eric Syre in 2014.
Graveland's Thousand Swords is definitely the most difficult album in the band's discography to evaluate. On one hand, it is Graveland’s most innovative and ground breaking recording. Other bands had integrated folk melodies, acoustic guitar and folk percussion, but as far as I know, Rob is the first to actually strum the guitar in a folk style while keeping the distortion on and the pitch razor sharp. Thousand Swords is one such album. The innovations in guitar playing and composition make this album essential listening for anyone interested in the folksier side of black metal. However, in itself, this album definitely shows Graveland trying out a style that is still a work in progress.
Thousand Swords, 1995. Thousand Swords, 1995. Thousand Swords, 06:31. The Dark Battlefield, 07:57. The Time of Revenge, 04:49.
Other than that, Thousand Swords is only good for staring at the cover, looking on with a blissful smirk as you observe Darken wandering through the frostbitten, remote woods of central Poland lugging a completely unnecessary shield along with him, decked in black leather and a pointy helmet, with a seemingly evil frown on his face. However, I’ll just say what everyone is thinking. This dick sneeze has no clue what the hell is going on, in real life, music, or otherwise. Steer clear from Thousand Swords at all costs.
