Ofermod more or less envisioned religious/orthodox black metal, long before usage of the term gained currency. In 18 years of activity, only two full albums have been spawned. The second of those, Thaumiel, shows explicit signs of both heritage and progress, and it is finally given a deserved vinyl treatment through I Hate. In music, concept and beliefs, Ofermod colligates with the likes of Funeral Mist, Mortuus, and Ondskapt. An 8-page booklet is included.
