  ## Recording
  
  The music on the album features extremely fast melodic black metal mixed with classic and thrash metal, and incorporates a range of vocal styles such as high pitched black metal shrieks, death growls, and female singing. Recorded on 16-track analog tape in April and December 1997 as two separate sessions, the album was originally released as a cassette by THT Productions in January 1998. Later in October 1998, Sonic Wave and Candlelight Productions re-released the album as CD and cassette with a different cover artwork. It went to sell 5000 copies total until being completely sold out in 2002. The album was re-mastered and re-issued in June, 2014.
