Vinyl reissue with gatefold sleeve and silver-stamped logo, which goes inside another sleeve with a photo of the band, of the 5th album from 1999 by these legendary Norwegian Black Metal masters, widely regarded by many fans as IMMORTAL's definitive masterpiece. Released after "Blizzard Beasts", the album marked a major turning point in the band's evolution, becoming the first release without Demonaz on guitar due to his tendinitis problems, with Abbath taking over guitar duties and steering the music toward a more epic and refined direction.
Its sound preserves IMMORTAL's trademark frozen and majestic Black Metal atmosphere while incorporating stronger Thrash Metal influences and a much greater emphasis on memorable riffing. The result is a collection of lengthy, epic compositions driven by outstanding songwriting and enhanced by Peter Tägtgren's clear yet powerful production. Dark, cold and majestic, the album stands as one of the undisputed masterpieces of 1990s Black Metal.
Recommended for fans of: ENSLAVED, EMPEROR, DISSECTION and SATYRICON.
