Presented on this split effort is one track by each of these Swedish hordes. The song "At the Edge of Negative Existence" represents Armagedda on this release and has the same feel and sound as their first album, mid-paced, filthy Black Metal with a very harsh sound. Focus is on the guitars and vocals. As before, they play Darkthrone influenced Black Metal. Another masterpiece by this horde, and a track I really appreciate. This track is also included on the Armagedda collection Echoes in Eternity released in 2007.
"Missfostret Tellus" by Woods of Infinity is actually my first encounter with the band, and is a bit different and hard to describe. Depressive Black Metal sounding partly like a soundtrack, partly like some kind of mad vaudeville circus music, with a bit of a folk music influence added is the best I can describe it. This is very interesting. Reminds me somewhat of Arcturus' La Masquerade Infernale.
The focus in the mix is on the vocals, which are more spoken or screamed than sung, the music is slow to mid-paced, with a sad sounding guitar, which adds to the feeling of depression which emanates from this track.
