The original idea for the record was conjured in the brain of project leader Mike Lindsay during a casual conversation between friends when the idea of making an album that combined the visceral, raw sound of black metal with the conservationists passion for bluegrass music.

In the midst of a genre renowned for its secrecy, theatricality and mysticism, one black metal band has decided to go against the grain, allowing fans and curious folk alike a chance to gain a deep insight into the method and madness of the creation of a black metal album.
