Es enthält 5 Tracks mit 45 Minuten Spielzeit und ist die 19. Album-VÖ des Black-Metal-Duos.

Laut Labelinfo wird das neue Album in längeren, doomigeren Songs Fenriz' Liebe für Doom ausdrücken. Dieser drückt es so aus: "When I was a kid growing up with metal I kept looking for bands with long songs. Black Sabbath had many, and Celtic Frost’s ‘Dawn Of Meggido’ had a long song, so I put that on in the record store and discovered another dimension of metal. Candlemass’ ‘Epicus Doomicus Metallicus’ had only long songs, so I think I bought that without even listening, and it was one of my best buys ever - an eternal inspiration for my entire career.”

Nocturno Culto ergänzt: “For us it has become a bit logical, hard to explain, but you get to build up for a different kind of listening. A three-minute song is nothing we think of at the moment. We like it this way. For now.”

Im Gegensatz zu allen Alben seit 2004, die allesamt im eigenen Necrohell II Studio entstanden - das im Grunde nur einen tragbaren 8-Spur-Rekorder bezeichnet, mit dem in einem alten Bombenbunker aufgenommen wurde - gingen DARKTHRONE dieses Mal ins Chaka Khan Studio in Oslo.

1. His Master`s Voice [07:17]

2. Hate Cloak [09:16]

3. Wake of the Awakened [08:24]
