Black double vinyl in gatefold sleeve with alternative cover art.

Background information about 'The Shadowthrone'

When Norwegian black metal legends Satyricon unleashed "The Shadowthrone" in 1994, they carved their name into the frozen heart of extreme metal history. This sophomore effort stands as a towering monument to atmospheric black metal, where Satyr's haunting compositions meet Frost's relentless percussion in a symphony of Nordic darkness that still sends shivers down spines nearly three decades later.

The album weaves through seven epic passages of pure Norwegian black metal mastery, from the opening assault of "Hvite Krists Død" to the closing darkness of "I En Svart Kiste". Each track builds upon layers of tremolo-picked melodies and blast-beat fury, creating an atmosphere so thick you can practically taste the Norwegian winter. The production maintains that raw, underground aesthetic that defined the second wave of black metal, yet allows every riff and shriek to cut through with crystalline clarity.
