Removed the details about Quorthon's death as that is detailed on his own page. redcountess 14:36, Jun 14, 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Hardcore Punk??
Someone added in "Black Metal/Hardcore Punk" into the genre infobox. Apparently some people need to give Bathory a real close examination...they're anything BUT hardcore punk. I left it as Viking Metal, Black Metal, and Thrash Metal. Mister Deranged 21:17, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Line-up
I changed " *Ace ``Quorthon`` Börje Forsberg - all instruments & vocals (Silverwing)
(R.I.P. 2/17/1966 - 6/3/2004, heart failure)" to "Quorthon (2/17/1966 - 6/3/2004) - guitars, vocals, music, and lyrics"; inasmuch as
1) it reflects more closely what is on the (presumably more authoritative) Quorthon page: we still don't know his real name; 2) it seems to be standard policy not to list death details in line-up entries. Of these, 1) seems the more important.
Also, the relevance of Silverwing was left unexplained.

http://www.metal-archives.com/band.php?id=184 , I'll go ahead and add his name. /050505
--- Ok, sorry, this is not the right way to add to the discussion, I guess, but I can't find any other way... How can Bathory have been founded in 1983 by an *18*-year old guy born in 1966? In 1983 Quorthon must have been 16/17, but never 18...
[edit] Plagerism?
Someone may want to check, but the biography section of this article seems strangely similar to the Bathory AllMusic Page...58.108.245.70 12:02, 12 December 2006 (UTC) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 58.108.245.70 (talk) 12:00, 12 December 2006 (UTC).
