And I think this is a perfect example of an album you just can't allow to be re-mastered because of the primitive production, Darkthrone's rusty sound makes the music even better and darker.
Because where Transylvanian Hunger ended, Panzerfaust continues, and this album his unforgettable riffs, screaming vocals and lyrics that makes you shiver from head to toe, crowns it all in that way that on a very hot summer day you still can feel theice-cold-Norwegian breeze blowing through your speakers...

I like this band, their music is primal, organic. I watched their dvd on a peaceville remaster, i think it was there first or second release. These guys are in there own world, which can be interesting to enter on occasion.

nice album.. it has the slower parts that i kinda like on raw black metal, but not toooo slow like Soulside Journey, The only bad song is Hordes of Nebulah, very boring.

This album ranks with FOAD and Total Death as my least favorite Darkthrone releases. it sounds at points like it wants to recapture some of what Transylvanian Hunger had going for it, but just seems dull in comparison. it marked the beginning of a bit of a rut for the band, before Plaguewielder and the fantastic Hate Them got them out of it.

En Vind Av Sorg and Hans Siste Vinter are a lot better than even some stuff on Transilvanian Hunger, but the rest is medicore, IMO. EDIT: Quintessence is also pretty good.

I've never been able to get into "Panzerfaust". It has only a few good songs like what Darkthrone made before this album. The rest is shitty Hellhammer-wannabe songs and vocals are so awful, it sounds like a grumpy drunk man screaming because he lost his beer bottle or burned himself with his cigarette. When vocals are crappy like that, I don't feel anything grim or cold. I just can't take the songs seriously because it's so bad it becomes laughable.

The early Celtic Frost inspired element to this album is clearly evident but totally deliberate, and what a great influence to have. And the song you mentioned in particular has an all-time great riff IMO, which as you also rightly said was also used to great effect in a song by Storm (which had Fenriz, Satyr and Kari Rueslattan).
