[edit] Recording and production
In January 2008, Immortal started rehearsing and writing new material for the album.[7] After spending much time performing live that year the band entered both the Grieghallen and Abyss studios in April 2009 to start recording the album.[8] A month later the band already completed recording the album and announced the album's title.[9] In June, Terrorizer was given the opportunity to listen to the just-recorded album and posted an exclusive track-by-track breakdown.[10]
