The original tape version of Thousand Swords is on Darken's own label Isengard Productions (1995). It uses the first version of the cover and includes a short rant against Lethal Recs in the insert.
Recorded at Tuba Studio, Wroclaw in the days of eternal winter & frozen night of full moon (December 1994), at the gates of a new era. Engineered and mixed by Graveland and Grezegorz Czachor.
Lyrics and music by Darken, intro by Karcharoth.
Graveland's style has changed from raw black metal on the early albums to a more epic sound which is inspired by Hammerheart-era Bathory. Lyrically, on the early works Rob Darken was inspired by Celtic beliefs, now he's Wotanism-orientated and calls his music "epic pagan metal".
Karcharoth R.I.P. - Commited suicide due to mental problems. Jumped from a tower in Wrocław.
