AETERNUS – …And So the Night Became CD (digipak)

Reclaim a monumental piece of Norwegian darkness with the official reissue of …And So the Night Became, the classic second album from Bergen’s AETERNUS. Released via Soulseller Records in 2020, this masterpiece of dark, melodic black metal finally returns in a properly remastered edition, presented with the original cover art taken from the paintings made by former bass player Morrigan.

Heavily rooted in the classic black metal scene from Bergen, Norway, Aeternus first unleashed …And So the Night Became in 1998. Across eight tracks of majestic fury and sombre atmosphere, the album bridges the raw, freezing aggression of early Norwegian black metal with a distinctly melodic and epic sensibility. From the anthemic “There’s No Wine like the Blood’s Crimson” and the warlike march of “Warrior of the Crescent Moon”, to the haunting title track and the closing epic “Fyrndeheimen”, this record stands as an undisputed classic of the late 90s Norwegian scene.

A mandatory addition for any serious collector of classic Bergen black metal, and a must-have for fans of the darker, more atmospheric side of the genre. This reissue faithfully preserves the legacy of an album that has only grown in stature over the decades.
