RAGNAROK · Arising Realm | RED LP

Red vinyl with printed inner sleeve.

Background information about 'Arising Realm'

Norwegian black metal legends Ragnarok unleash their second devastating assault with "Arising Realm", a monument to pure Nordic darkness that stands as one of the most essential albums in the Norwegian black metal canon. Originally released in 1997, this masterpiece features the legendary Shagrath of Dimmu Borgir lending his keyboard mastery to create an atmosphere so chilling it feels like the very breath of ancient Norse gods. The album captures the raw essence of mid-90s Norwegian black metal while pushing boundaries with its sophisticated songwriting and haunting atmospheric passages.

From the bone-chilling "God Is Wasted" to the epic journey through "En Verden Av Stein", Ragnarok delivers twelve tracks of unrelenting black metal fury that perfectly balances brutality with melodic sophistication. The production maintains that essential raw edge while allowing every blast beat and tremolo-picked riff to cut through like a Viking blade. This vinyl reissue marks the first time this classic has been available on wax, making it an absolute must-have for collectors and devotees of true Norwegian black metal.

For fans of:
Emperor, Dimmu Borgir, Satyricon, Dark Funeral, Mayhem
