1.	Det Som En Gang Var (Burzum cover) 14:45	lyrics	buy track
Imellom buskene vi stirret På de som minnet om andre tider Og fortalte at håpet var borte For alltid... Vi hørte alvesang og vann Som sildret Det som en gang var er nu borte Alt blodet... All lengsel og sorg som Hersket Og de følelser som kunne Røres Er vekk... For alltid... Vi døde ikke... Vi har aldri levd Between the bushes we stared At those who reminded us of another age And told that hope was away Forever... We heard elvensong and Water that trickled What once was is now Away All the blood... All the longing and pain that Ruled Are away... Forever... We are not dead... We have never lived
2.	The Glorious Moment (Nachtmystium cover) 05:27		buy track
3.	It's Darker than You Think (Carpathian Forest cover) 04:43	lyrics	buy track
My cold goddess of the night Squirming under my spiked fist She's giving me all carnal delights Submit yourself and drink my blood I am the bringer of hate Evil reigns supreme on earth Defenders of the blackest faith Which strengthen my inner glow Mind expanding inner journey From a grim and bitter soul Misanthropic violent hellblast It's darker than you think... For seemingly endless time There is still blood on the old oak This is where you come to die Over three hundred years old And still stretching towards the sky The hangman's oak... Burning, bleeding, dying From the inside Hitting, whipping, kicking The corpse of Christ Reading, learning, seeing All knowledge of evil Watching, waiting, observing My fallen angel... I am the mortal guide With spiritual possessions I have seen the other side And I have sold my soul I have no earthly tombstone And I have no christian grave I am a misanthrope I am not a fucking slave
4.	Transilvanian Hunger (Darkthrone cover) 06:04	lyrics	buy track
Transilvanian hunger cold, soul Your hands are cruel... to haunt, to haunt The mountains are cold... soul, cold Careful pale, forever at night Take me can't you feel the call Embrace me eternally in your daylight slumber To be draped by the shadow of your morbid palace Oh, hate living... The only heat is warm blood So pure... So cold Transilvanian hunger Hail to the true, intense vampires A story made for divine fulfillment To be the one's breathing a wind of sorrow Sorrow and fright the dearest katharsis Beautiful evil self to be the morbid count A part of a pact that is delightfully immortal Feel the call freeze you with the uppermost desire Transilvanian hunger, my mountain is cold So pure... Evil, cold Transilvanian hunger
5.	Svenskt Vemod (Hypothermia cover) 04:45		buy track
6.	Nostalgia (full Nocturnal Depression cover) 16:36	lyrics	buy track
And once again despair is kissing me With her cold ghostly lips My own destruction is leading me to my grave That I digged for many times And once again I'm becoming a spectral thought Forgotten, sad, miserable shit As I fall into the black spheres among lonely memories You've broken us, piece by piece The score of my soundtrack is written by blood Music of suicide written in red I did it myself, my wrists are also opened And like my tears, it's cascading Everything has been lost behind us On my kness, hands on my face The sun is appearing into the spring morning Where I'm lying there's just nothing than my dust Now you don't care about him You live on the other side of feelings But our February snow is now covering my lifeless body
