i snagged this copy of integrity's 'black heksen rise' 7" at burnout records more or less by accident. the hardcore 7" section at burnout is just right behind the turntables, so when i listen to some records at the store i use to look through the racks. on such an incident i pulled this 7" from the racks unaware of its content. i just really liked the cover art in the first place and as i had 'suicide black snake' on rotation recently, i thought this piece of wax could do no harm.
my copy is part of the indie recordings pressing. indie recordings is a small label from norway, if information is correct. it's some sort of re-press because the two songs on display here got actually released for the first time on the split of the same name together with rot in hell in 2011. this release was a double 7" with a narrative of dwid himself on the second disc and packaged within a book written and illustrated by the same weird holy terror worshipper.
considering this outstanding package, maybe i should get a copy of this thrity days of night records release, too. this partial re-press came out two years later, with indie handling the european affair and a389 recordings for u.s. matters. it seems like a trimmed version, which it apparently is. however i love the two songs here. check them out. indie pressed 500 copies with 100 on grey vinyl, 200 on black vinyl and another 200 on white vinyl. indie recordings. 2013.
