Originating in 1994 from the ashes of Vlad, Blut Aus Nord are undisputable French black metal pioneers, always managing to progress and move forward, evolving in perpetual mutation, developing their own vision of the genre. Choosing, from the start, the total opposite path of regressive bands, Blut Aus Nord eschews all the inherent black metal clichés. The group's approach is a fist in the face of mainstream mediocrity, becoming more macabre and sinister through a blend of innovative musical research, subliminal mental manipulation, and an incredible haunted, nightmarish feeling based on disharmony. The ground-breaking decadence of Ultima Thulée is presented here with artwork as close as possible to the original release and with enhanced audio mastered specifically for vinyl.
