IMMORTAL

Official picture-disc vinyl reissue with gatefold sleeve, poster and 12-page booklet, collecting the earliest recordings by legendary Norwegian IMMORTAL: the 1991 demo "The Northern Upirs' Death", the 1991 "Immortal" EP, plus two tracks taken from a 1992 demo/rehearsal. An essential historical document capturing the formative years of one of the most influential bands of the second wave of Norwegian Black Metal.

These early recordings reveal IMMORTAL at a very different stage from the band that would later define the genre, with a rawer sound still deeply rooted in Death Metal while already hinting at the icy atmospheres, sharp riffing and distinctive identity that would flourish on later classics such as Pure Holocaust and Battles in the North. An indispensable collection documenting the evolution of Abbath and Demonaz from their earliest recordings to the birth of their unmistakable style.

Recommended for fans of: MAYHEM, DARKTHRONE, ENSLAVED, EMPEROR, GORGOROTH.
