I´ve had the main riff for this song (the first riff) in my head for a couple of years, probably since the beginning of 2000. I put it together with a couple of riffs which seemed to fit together well. However, when I compared it to a couple of other songs I had written for the next supposed full-length release (this was around 2010) it didn´t seem to fit in. I like the song a lot but I felt its possible qualities may disappear together with the other songs. So I decided to lift this one out and save it for this special occasion, and I´m happy with the final result!
You may accuse me for being influenced by BATHORY for this one, I´m aware of that. That was also the fact with ”The misery king” on ”Devilmentertainment non-stop”. However, I guess there is a PLUTONIUM twist to this song as well. Anyway, BATHORY was one of the best bands ever, so who cares?
Blinding, cinematic black metal with rich layers of synth make for an album sweeping in scope and punishing on impact. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 5, 2016
