Official reissue on digital format, authorized by the band.

Azaghal. A Finnish Black Metal output not as widely known as many of their fellow bands, yet they have been active since 1995 - originally under different names until 1998.

Azaghal's first official release came in the form of "Rehearsal Demo '98", here roughly shortened to "Demo I / 1998". The audio quality is, as one might expect from a rehearsal demo of that era - not great. However, this release remains an intriguing piece of Finnish Black Metal history. For fans of Azaghal, it offers a dark journey through alternate versions of tracks later featured, for example, on their debut album, "Mustamaa".

Dive deep into a past that is very much alive - dive deep into the Nine Circles of Hell.
