Darkthrone - Transilvanian Hunger.
Acoustic cover by Leiv Reed.
Arrangement, instruments, vocals, recording, mixing and video by Leiv Reed. Nylon stringed guitars tuned to G minor.
Darkthrone, Mayhem and Burzum all have a certain hypnotic and sad undertone in much of their work, some songs or albums more than others. The first few albums by these three in particular have a simplistic, bare and naked songwriting approach that I find truly appealing. They all touch in to the same lyrical universes, describing the nordic darkness, death, sadness - sprinkled with some fairies or whatever.
This song by Darkthrone, Transilvanian Hunger, is probably a way of describing a “thirst for blood“, with the associations tied to Transilvania. I won’t try any further explanation the lyrical meaning here, I’ll paste ’em in here somewhere instead.
If you have any ideas for other songs or albums I should look into, leave a comment below. I appreciate it. Thanks for stopping by
