A double CD edition of Transilvanian Hunger including the audio master created for the album’s 30th anniversary plus a 2014 commentary disc from Fenriz featuring his recollections on the tracks and the time period.
Darkthrone began life in the late 80’s as a thrash/death metal act & progressed through technical death/doom metal experimentation to become legends of the black metal world & one of the original leading bands of the Norwegian scene, as well as inspiring a whole generation of metal bands.
Famously written and recorded over a period of just 2 weeks and featuring the iconic photocopied front cover, ’Transilvanian Hunger’ features primitive guitar riffs over a monotonous drum beat creating a feel of hypnotic starkness with its blend of Von, Burzum and Bathory. Over the years the album has become representative of the definitive 90’s Norwegian black metal sound and style, often copied but never bettered over the past 2 decades.
The album was recorded with Fenriz’ ’Necrohell’ studio, and was the first release where the band became a duo, following the departure of guitarist Zephyrous.
