1996’s Malice (subtitled Our Third Spell) saw the band's symphonic black metal style refined with slightly more technical songs and a far less mystical atmosphere than Second Spell. The production was clearer, and though it did little with the bass (now played by newcomer Noctifer, following Svartalv’s return to Oslo) it ably separated the guitars, drums, vocals, and synths, the latter proving varied and adding a dreamy and carnival-esque vibe to proceedings, a stark contrast with the nasty-sounding riffs. If the ethereal forest atmosphere of the past had been laid to rest, then the 14-minute-long ‘Ad Arma Ad Arma’ was the nail in its coffin, the nuclear war-themed lyrics manifesting a distinctly contemporary vibe and complimenting the industrial sounds utilized in the music.

The songs were completely new remastered by Patrick W. Engel at the Temple of Disharmony to ensure the best possible sound.

This release will include a huge 20 page 12” booklet including an in-depth interview (divided into 4 parts, this is part 4) with all 5 original bandmembers and many never seen before pictures.
