Background

The band's drummer, Fenriz, used the nickname "Hank Amarillo". Being that they had finally made it "big" and released an album,[2] and due to his negativity toward the then-crop of death metal bands, Fenriz thought it would be appropriate to mockingly choose a "Western" name.[2] Later pressings of the albums listed all of the band's pseudonyms rather than their real names.

Reissue

The album was remastered and reissued by Peaceville in 2003, as well as being repackaged in a cardboard digipak. The first chapter of a four-part video interview with Fenriz and Nocturno Culto, spanning the first four albums, was also included as bonus material.
