Customer Reviews better than the new one it seems when artist get signed 2 a major label they lose their bite this one and dark medevil times r their 2 best . I am so in tune with this album The power displayed on this cd is incredible and always refreshes my senses when I listen to it. Whenever I listen to this cd I am healed of anger, sadness, depression, aches of any sort. There is no Black Metal album quite like it. I can imagine myself in a dark, misty forest at night feeling the beautiful Norwegian winds upon my flesh as the night blackens and the strength of darkness burns deep in my lonely yet contempt heart, searching no battles, only grasping the night's beauty to fulfil my dark desires of renewing the Earth's once had natural life, at least in my desperate mind which eternally hungers for that natural dark beauty once existant ages ago. That is what this album does for me. A Black metal Classic This, and _Hvis Lyset Tar Oss_ by Burzum, were my introduction to black metal, and I can't say that I could have found a better place to start. _The Shadowthrone_ and _Dark Medival Times_ are true Black metal classics. The whole album is as cold as ice, from the Battle cry that opens the album to the funeral sythn ending. If you've just discovered satyricon, you could pick this up but I'd recommend getting _Nemesis Divinia_ before picking this up. I say that because _Nemesis Divinia_ is the bands most famous record. And It is an easier introduction to this band overall. But if your already fammiliar to satyricon and/or black metal Pick this up now! And for those of who like bands like Cradle of Filth or Dimmu Borgir, go out and listen to some of the bands that made the bands you like what they are today.
