There we go - an almost forgotten release that never really gained any attention, ahead of it's time but nobody noticed that or even cared about it, one of the very first successfull attempts of mixing doom and black metal, from a young and quite promising Norwegian band, breaking up shortly after their debut and only one of the five disenchanted members touched an instrument ever after. Quite a sad story, eh?

"Moonrise...", "Caedes Sacrilegae" and "Sarah Ellen" are my favorite tracks on this album and it's a pity we will never know how their second album might have sounded.

I wish I knew where they got that melody in "Moonrise..." from. It reminds me of some old movie score but I just can't recall it's origin. Damn it.
