After the groundbreaking predecessor, Immortal were confronted with the question of how to design the third album. "Pure Holocaust" had already reached the final limits of fury, velocity and determination. But the Norwegians found a solution. First of all, the sound of "Battles in the North" differs completely and cannot be confused with that of the previous work. "Battles in the North" is colder, sharper and less dense. Indeed, it conveys the feeling of being lost in a snowstorm while sensing the breath of the enemy. I am quite unsure whether this is a good production in objective terms. Yet it meets the requirements of this type of Northern black metal very precisely. Maybe you have to get used to the mix, but your efforts are rewarded.
