You know, that one used by Bathory and Infester. I believe I saw it once on Windows default fonts, but now I can't find it

Just don't use it on yet another BM album. Unless it's a really fucking fantastic album, which comes along with an estimated frequency of every 5 years.

I have Microsoft word 2013 and its under 'old english' on there. Pretty cool font, fits the bm aesthetic nicely.

The Bathory one is "Cloister Black"

The Infester one looks like "Olde English".

Edit: In general, if you need to know what a font is, I would definitely recommend this. I didn't use it for this particular thread (I already have both fonts above on my computer), but in general, ^ would be really good. Though you might want slightly higher-res / quality images if you plan to use that site.
