LABEL: PEACEVILLEVINYL RELEASE DATE: 6/24/2022ORIGINAL RELEASE DATE: 2002VARIANT: Vinyl LP THE SECOND STUDIO ALBUM OF COLD & PRIMITIVE MID-PACED NORWEGIAN BLACK METAL, PRESENTED ON THE VINYL FORMAT FOR THE FIRST TIME. Norwegian black metal band Khold formed in Oslo in the year 2000 by Gard & Sarke (also known from his own, self-named act, alongside Darkthrone's Nocturno Culto). Khold is what emerged out of the ashes of the cult band, Tulus. Khold has recorded 6 albums to date & have successfully toured with bands such as Satyricon & Behemoth in the past. Khold is also notable for their use of old Norse for song-titles & lyrics. ‘Phantom’ was Khold’s second album, released in 2002 on Moonfog Productions, just one year on from their debut ‘Masterpiss of Pain’. The tracks on offer were once again a fine concoction of mid-paced, often groove-laden black metal, with old-school riffing, & a prominent bass presence helping to drive the tracks along. Khold quickly became firmly established in the black metal world as a serious force in this newer wave of Norwegian acts. This edition of ‘Phantom’ is presented on vinyl for the first time & contains inner sleeve featuring lyrics.
