Background information about 'Where the Snows are Never Gone...'

From the frozen wastelands of Murmansk comes a monument to pure, unadulterated Black Metal savagery. Old Wainds unleashed their debut full-length "Where the Snows are Never Gone..." in 1997, and what a statement it was! This isn't just another Black Metal album – it's a barbaric manifesto carved from Arctic ice and delivered with the fury of a winter storm. The eight tracks showcase the band at their most unhinged and primal, with founder Morok crafting hymns that feel like they were forged in the darkest corners of the Russian tundra.

The production captures that raw, early Norwegian essence perfectly, but there's something distinctly Russian about this brutality – a kind of desperate, inhuman quality that sets it apart from its Scandinavian influences. Those vocals are absolutely insane, ranking among the most hate-filled and otherworldly you'll ever encounter. Remastered by Jack Control and Maor Appelbaum, this reissue finally gives these frozen anthems the treatment they deserve, complete with restored artwork that captures the band's uncompromising vision.

For fans of:
Darkthrone, Mayhem, Emperor, Immortal, Satyricon
