the earliest, historical beginnings of Norsk black metal emperors reveal their first steps as a band, at that time [May 1992] consisting of Ihsahn, Mortiis [on bass, also responsible for all lyrics] and Samoth [who performs drums] power-trio: the first official eight track demo was home-made on poor equipment with a very raw production and rough performance, reflecting the uncompromising zeal of the crew, but its haunting, profound atmosphere was significant and much more important, laying foundation to extremely unholy, ferocious and creepy sound; three re-recorded demo songs, tracked in way more professional manner in December of the same year, already featuring Faust on drums, issued as As The Shadow Rise 7"EP in 1994, come as bonus, setting exceptional magical vibe and predicting grandiose things to come soon after; recent European gatefold sleeve black vinyl edition comes with sound remastered at Strype Audio, and a pro-printed inner sleeve with credits and vintage photos
