Description
TAAKE'S CULT DEBUT STUDIO ALBUM OF MASTERFULLY CRAFTED TRUE NORWEGIAN BLACK METAL, INCLUDING THE BONUS 1996 EP, 'KOLDBRANN I JESU MARG'.
In 1993, Taake mastermind Hoest formed the band under the name Thule, releasing two demos, 'Der Vinterstormene Raste' in 1993 & 1994's 'Omfavnet Av Svarte Vinger'. Shortly afterwards, Thule became Taake (meaning 'Fog' in English), a name which better reflected the band's music & the area where Hoest was from, the mountains of Bergen, Norway.
The band's first full-length album, 'Nattestid Ser Porten Vid', was originally released in 1999. The album was written entirely by Hoest, who was joined by a session musician, Tundra, to perform bass & drums. It was recorded 1997/98 at the legendary Grieghallen Studios (Immortal, Mayhem, Gorgoroth) with Pytten. Nattestid was a stellar introduction to Taake's unusual brand of cold & yet surprisingly melodic, at times complex composition.
The album featured both grim & clean vocals alongside icy riffs & atmospherics creating a truly dark experience. The lyrics were written & sung in old Norwegian & with an execution compared to the likes of earlier Darkthrone, Immortal or Satyricon, Nattestid was quickly acclaimed as a classic of Norwegian Black Metal.
This edition of 'Nattestid...' includes additional rare photos plus the bonus 1996 EP, 'Koldbrann I Jesu Marg'.
