This is the fourth full length opus from the infamous Norwegian black metal band, Gorgoroth.
In my opinion, this album contains some of the more memorable and melodic riffs that guitarist/founder, Infernus has written.
The vocals are executed rather well and this album would also be the last album the feature vocalist Pest and the first to feature vocalist Gaahl (Gaahl performs only one song, the first track which is also the title track).. Drumming duties seemed to revolve on this one with Frost returning for a song.. Vrolok plays drums on three songs... and guitarist Infernus himself behind the kit on tracks 5 and 6.
Songs are very black metal in structure and in atmosphere.. One of the last albums with Infernus being the major songwriter...and, this was also the last studio album that Gorgoroth recorded at Grieghallen (where many classic black metal albums have been recorded).
