Re-Release cover

In 2001 the demo got remastered by Marko Tarvonen and was provided as a download. However, the download was later removed from the website. In 2002 the remastered demo was re-released with the addition of bass guitars, keyboards and vocals. At the same time the demo cover was changed.

A completely re-recorded version of the songs "Hvergelmir" and "Elivagar (Pakanavedet)" was released on the EP Tulimyrsky in 2008.

gollark: Also, I checked, and it looks like JPEG XL is actually inevitable, due to the ability to losslessly recompress existing JPEG images more efficiently.
gollark: Actually, GTech™ GFunctionalProgramming™ just preallocates infinite memory for stack frames so there are no side effects.
gollark: Hmm, actually², my apiologists tell me you are to use JPEG XL.
gollark: Actually, make lossless WEBP.
