AZAGHAL, Finland's top-selling Black Metal act, unleashes an official re-issue of their legendary Debut album, "Mustamaa”. Out of print world-wide since 2011, this 1999 Satanic Black Metal classic is finally re-released with the original layout meticulously recreated to preserve this early, immortal Black Metal album! One of the longest running Occult Black Metal bands with a vast catalog, including 12 full-length albums, countless EP's and splits, AZAGHAL are = known to every metal fan world-wide.
Performing a more bestial form of black metal in their early years, AZAGHAL's "Mustamaa" exemplifies this approach, which alongside Impaled Nazarene's "Tol Cormpt Norz, Norz, Norz", BEHERIT’s “Drawing Down the Moon” and Horna’s "Kohti Yhdeksän Nousua", cemented the corner-stone of the now hugely popular and infamous Finnish black metal sound. This classic sound, coupled with regular touring, became instrumental in making AZAGHAL one of Finland’s Largest Metal bands!
24 years after its original release, AZAGHAL’s "Mustamaa" is just as impressive and relevant today as it was upon its initial 1999 release!
