    I love that EP... and I think Ihsahn played on it/wrote some of it if I'm not mistaken?

    I love how it is the same Theodor Kittelsen illustration as the cover art for Carpathian Forest's more widely known? available? Through Chasm, Caves and Titan Woods. I wonder which was released first in 1995? Apparently Nattefrost and Satyr weren't buddies.

    Indeed Ihsahn played on this thing.

    That picture of Satyr makes me laugh every time I see it.

    @Anonymous-

    Have Satyr and Paul Stanley ever been photographed together?
