about

"As bracing as a shot of super-chilled vodka downed in an ice-storm, this 'best of' anthology from Icelanders THULE hits on all cylinders."
-- Liz / Metal Maniacs Magazine

The long-overdue 'Official' CD release of the Pre- CURSE / FORTID / POTENTIAM mid-90's recordings of Icelandic Black Metal pioneers THULE(!), who many of you should remember from the "Fire and Ice" compilation. This essential anthology excavates seminal tracks rescued from early recordings without alteration, faithful to the original mid-90's Scandinavian Black Metal sound and atmosphere now copied by countless bands today-- with raw, utterly 'cult' production, yet the spark and energetic aggression shines through via high-calibre songwriting and crushing ensemble execution.

THANKS to Eldur for bestowing upon us the honor and privilege of releasing these hallowed, timeless tracks of True Nordic-influenced Black Metal!

Orthodox BM genius inspired by the early advances of classic EMPEROR, ENSLAVED, IMMORTAL, MAYHEM, KVIST, and DARKTHRONE, but also with preliminary hints of progressive icelandic elements that would later be fully developed in current CURSE and FORTID recordings.

This Anthology CD includes tracks from the "Fire and Ice" compilation and THULE's now-rare split [K7] with ASMODEUS. The last song on the album is actually a new recording by CURSE, a cover-version of one of THULE's best! Raw, yet high-calibre Black Metal with unmistakeable genius!

Black metal psychedelia at its finest. Eerie, unnerving yet comforting and smoothly flowing at the same time, the beginning of SKAPHE. liltito
