Debut CD 1999. An EXCELLENT album of this style of Atmospheric Pagan/Black Metal. The guitar sound is KILLER! The keyboards used eloquently. The Pagan feelings are abound. And some of the best acoustic parts/riffs ever. Like a mix of the 1st Ancient album, Dawn (swe), early Thy Serpent, early Opeth, Ved Buens Ende and Dissection. The vocals are a mix of shrill black metal vocals and pagan/viking styled chant-singing. A Highly Recommended album!!!
I have the Radio Promo version sent to Radio Stations for airplay. It comes in a cardboard sleeve. Plus I scanned the Promo Sheet that came with it.
Scanned and ripped from my personal collection.
