I''m no Enslaved expert, but I've been told this is one of their most aggressive albums...I've heard their later ones and theyre a little too progressive...this one is balanced very nicely

Hmm, whilst this is still a relatively good album by all Black metal standards, I find it to be one of Enslaved's weaker albums. Of course it is very aggressive and very primitive (in terms of songwriting, song structures, etc.), but there is't quite as much of the epic atmosphere or brilliant quality that 'Frost' or 'Vikingligr Veldi'. It's still got its moments, it's not terrible.

Maybe speed black, still old one but same time this is most rawish in vocals, most aggressive and angry bands album in some way.

It's not bad but it's still too aggressive for my taste. I really don't like where the band was going after the debut.

I love this one and find it to be underrated. Awesome riffs and force behind each song and the album doesn't overstay its welcome. All killer and no filler so to speak.

Upon the plain, there rushed forth and high
Shadows at the end of night and mirrored in the sky
Far far away beyond might of day
And there lay the land of the dead of mortal cold decay
