Limited to 500 copies reissue of the best Mortiis album. Mortiis' 2nd and 3rd LPs stand alone in his catalogue and this 3rd LP was a triumph of epic heroism and dark tales of spiritual journey. Keiser Av En Dimensjon Ukjent delves deeper into Mortiis' passion for creating dark, epic soundscapes, inspired by the unlikely combination of black metal, KISS/WASP, and Tolkien. "I always said those elements got thrown into a hotpot and out came Mortiis," he said.
Though the album's two tracks, "Reisene til grotter og Ødemarker" and "Keiser Av En Dimensjon Ukjent," were recorded entirely using synths, the writing process behind the tracks was a much more organic experience. "I wasn´t using sequencers or any other means of recording parts and ideas as I went along, so everything was by ear and making notes," Mortiis said.
