Venom - Countess Bathory Lyrics






Welcoming the virgins fair
To live a noble life
In the castle known to all
The Count's infernal wife
She invites the peasants with
Endless lavish foods
But, when evening spreads its wings
She rapes them of their blood

Countess Bathory
Countess Bathory

All day long the virgins sit
And feast on endless meals
The Countless laughs and sips her wine
Her skin doth crack and peel
But when nighttime fills the air
One must pay the price
The Countess takes her midnight bath
With blood that once gave life

Countess Bathory
Countess Bathory

Living in her self styled Hell
The Countess dressed in black
Life's so distant - death's so near
No blood to turn time back
The castle walls are closing in
She's crippled now with age
Welcomes death with open arms
The reaper turns the page

Countess Bathory
Countess Bathory

    Go seach for the live at Hammersmith 85 version (here on youtube as london 1985) - i think this is way better and more energetic than the studio version; even a little higher tempo. which really is a sign of quality for a good version.

    I wish I could see Venom live. But every time they supposedly come to Vancouver Canada they cancel. Hopefully one day we'll be lucky to see them. PISS ME OFF. Its almost as though I wished the band never existed.

  48. M.... B....

    Thanks to Venom! That's the reason why I left Hair Metal!

  49. G.... S....

    I fucking love VENOM

  58. C.... ....

    I absolutely love this track...I have the black metal vinyl and a picture disc from when they first came out..welcome to hell and the next one - at war with Satan although the preview on the previous album was better than the album itself I thought...takes me back!

  59. A.... R....

    capolavoro

  60. C.... R....

    First song I discovered by them. Been a fan ever since. One of the best bands ever

  61. w.... ....

    Why wasnt Venom considered for the Soundtrack of the venom movie? Cinema Producers have no balls anymore. They rather chose mindless contemporary hip hop stuff

  62. P.... d....

    💋💋💋💕💕

  67. F.... L....

    .... And so it came to pass that the countess, who once bathed in the rejuvenating of a hundred virgins, was buried alive.. and her castle, in which so many cruel deeds took place, fell rapidly into ruins; rising over the buried dungeon in that god-forsaken wilderness, a solitary tower, is all that remains. The countess' fortune was believed to be divided among the clergy, although some say more remains unfound, still buried along side the rotting skulls that bear mute witness to the inhumanity of the human creature..

    F.... L....

    First Last blood?

  68. M.... d....

    Can anyone recommend me any
    christian rock bands? Thanks!

  71. J.... D....

    That Nirvana album, we wanted to hear so badly :D

  72. s.... b....

    IS THIS GROOP INTO SATAN...OR PRO CHRIST? just remember/it is written/ you beny me before man & i will deny u before my father....now is it reely worth it!?

  73. S.... M....

    Feels like I’m listening to punk rock on steroids. So that’s what thrash metal is 🤔 punk metal. 🤘🏻love it

  74. B.... A....

    Countess... Melania! :D

  75. C.... ....

    Venom saved me from a demon know your enemy Mutter

  76. R.... P....

    As a musician, I do not find the two riffs alike in the least

  77. D.... M....

    Bathory was a fucked up bitch

    D.... M....

    Darrell Middleton I would have still fucked her.

  78. S.... A....

    I didn't expect a venom solo to sound so good

  79. M.... ....

    even better than cartmans christian band

  80. M.... ....

  82. V.... H....

    Classic! ! Venom baby !!

  83. a.... v....

    They don't solo much, do they? Not that I think that' s a bad thing....

  84. B.... Q....

    Teen Spirit sounds nothing like this, But Metallica's Motorbreath surely does.

  85. J.... B....

    Venom is the only black metal band that I like

    J.... B....

    Venom isnt a black metal band

    J.... B....

    Rika Eckerman
    It is.
    It was a part of the the first wave of black metal with Mercyful Fate and Celtic Frost.

    J.... B....

    Sepultura

  86. N.... H....

    Smells like teen spirit countess bathory and kreator's terrible certainty they all sound alike

  87. R.... ....

    smells like black spirit :v

  88. J.... L....

    Cooounnttteeessssssss

  89. H.... ....

    My first time listening to Venom. I'm definitley happy I gave them a listen!

  90. M.... S....

    kurt cocaine is a poser. he killed himself like dead from mayhem. he stole this riff. and most importantly. hes a poser.

    M.... S....

    You're jealous of a dead guy. It's time you start to grow up, kid. If you don't like KC/Nirvana's music, stop letting the rest of the people know. You might probably listen to shitty bands/songs and nobody actually cares.

    M.... S....

    And that makes you what exactly?

  91. B.... T....

    Ahh, yes! That's my favourite Kurt Cobain song!

  92. O.... O....

    This song most likely helped someone with their history project. \m/

  93. M.... ....

    "...And so it came to pass that the Countess, who once bathed in the rejuvenating blood of a hundred virgins, was buried alive...And her castle in which so many cruel deeds took place fell rapidly into ruin. Rising over the buried dungeons in that god-forsaken wilderness, a solitary tower, like some monument to Evil, is all that remains.

    The Countess' fortune was believed to be divided among the clergy, although some say that more remains unfound, still buried alongside the rotting skulls that bear mute witness to the inhumanity of the human creature."

  94. M.... S....

    "... Ela dormiu, no calor dos meus braços" HJEUAEHUAEU zoas, nada a ver

  95. S.... B....

    How is this shite even close to Teen Spirit. I watched these cock ends walking around an under eighteen club most Sunday nights.
    The Mayfair in Newcastle before anyone asks.
    Everyone just ignored them apart from the slappers. I knew Lanty and he was just a dick. They were the north easts joke at the time. They were never played...like ever.
    Thats in there hometown.

  96. A.... T....

    nirvana

  97. D.... L....

    The opening riff sounds more like Holiday by Green Day than any Nirvana song

  98. B.... e....

    One of my favourite songs, awesome music they had back in the 80s.
