The beginning of Darkthrone's black metal material.

After recording his parts for the album, bassist Dag Nilsen left the band.

The person who appears on the front cover is Zephyrous.

In an interview, Fenriz said that the album was somewhat "rushed", in order to comply to contract clauses with their record label, Peaceville. He also noted that many of the songs feature "death metal guitar riffs" simply played in a "black metal style".

First press 1992 (VILE 28 CD): white disc (limited to 3000 copies). Second press 1992 (VILE 28 CD): Black disc. Third press with Music for Nations with number CDVILE 28, then with Snapper Music.
