Background information about ''

This double CD compilation brings together two essential chapters from Sarke's dark metal journey, showcasing the Norwegian all-star project at its most compelling. "Vorunah" marked the mesmerizing debut in 2009 when Thomas Bergli (alias Sarke from Khold, Tulus, ex-Old Man's Child) joined forces with the legendary Nocturno Culto from Darkthrone and Anders Hunstad (El Caco, Autopulver) on keyboards. The album delivered a haunting voyage through sinister soundscapes, drawing inspiration from metal titans while carving out its own distinctive path through tracks like "Primitive Killing" and the title track "Vorunah".

"Oldarhian" continued this sonic exploration in 2011, further cementing Sarke's reputation as masters of atmospheric darkness. The album maintains the project's signature blend of classic rock foundations with death and thrash metal intensity, all filtered through a black metal lens. From the crushing opener "Condemned" to the epic "Burning Of The Monoliths", the record demonstrates how Sarke evolved their sound while staying true to their core vision of creating music that's both brutally heavy and eerily beautiful.

For fans of: Darkthrone, Mayhem, Celtic Frost, Black Sabbath, Candlemass, Death, Motorhead and Kreator
