2022 re-issue with new re-mastering from Dan Swanö. Double albumon blue marbled vinyls with pop-up cover. Limited 500 copies

‘The Somberlain’ reigns with ‘De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas’, ‘BlackMetal’ and ‘Under The Sign Of The Black Mark’ as one of the greatblack metal classics. Everything fell into place for thisrelease…and I mean everything. The production is enjoyable, themusicianship is amazing and the song writing is deep as the darkestwell. Vocals mix to create an aura of violence and chaos while thedrums/guitars shred atmospheric holes in every space they manage totouch. Evil as evil can be…this record went slightly unnoticed forno good reason at all. Dissection never failed the black metalworld, and possibly even surpassed many of the so called ‘legends’that the media hype that surrounded the first wave ended uppromoting. Despite having his own little murder rap anddrama…Dissection made music that has only gotten it’s just due inthe past few years. I wish I could pick some key songs from thisrecord buy everything is of an equally enjoyable value. The songcraft is both epic and engaging while avoiding the pitfalls andextra-fat that tends to mar albums with such a scope. Also, anothertrait that separates them from the ‘epic black metal’ pack is theability to create an aura of violence that most brutal bands losewhen they attempt to drift towards a more thoughtful atmosphere.Little can be said about this record that hasn’t been saidbefore…it is an excellent example of epic, violent andthought-provoking composition. Dissection has created a record witha mood, style and presence that few could even begin to approach.If not for the murders and untimely demise of the band I am surethat they would have received more attention for the music than forthe drama and they would be one of the largest acts in black metaltoday.
