I ordered Therion's debut album "of darkness" as vinyl back in early 1991 as seeking for new swedish death metal - ordered the album not knowing anything at all about the band, just that it's some new extreme metal band from Sweden. That the band was from Sweden, was enough info for me (Entombed effect, ehh) ... the same happened with Meshuggah and their debut album, too. But back to Therion; the opening track ("the return"), this track here, made me become a fan instantly. And the rest of the album as well, but the opening track was magic.

Therion is also one of the quite rare bands in which case I haven't lost my interest while the band has changed their musical style rather dramatically as time has passed. Well, there is this track "time shall tell" on the debut album. But would I had guessed "what time would tell me" about Therion's progress while I was banging my head listening to the debut album back in 1991? Probably not! :)
