Comes with a 16-page booklet with English lyrics.

This album is eternally dedicated to the memory of Euronymous and the cursed Mayhem.

The introduction to Black Horizons starts with a phrase being played backwards, that phrase is "Frost is spreading across the plain to welcome the eternal night"; this phrase is later used as a lyric on the song Where Dead Angels Lie, from their upcoming 1995 Album Storm of the Light's Bane.

Recording information:

Recorded at Hellspawn/Unisound Studios in Sweden, between March 1st-6th, 1993.
Produced by Dissection.
