I bought the original version of this disc back in '98 and really liked it a lot but always wished that they would have gotten a better production. This disc along with Poems - Burn the Past by The Everdawn and the first Dimension Zero release were killer examples of the Swedish style back in the day but they all suffered from poor production in my opinion. Well, this remastered version of At Dusk and Forever sounds great and revitalizes this classic release.

This is one of my favorite death metal releases from the late 1990s. Completely awesome Swedish tech with tracks 2 - 8 being excellent in my opinion. I also have close to 100 different band shirts from the late 90's to the present and this vvvv is my prized possession (\m/\m/)

Is anybody familiar with this band? Eternal Autumn formed in 1993 and then split-up in 2001, which was actually about the same time that I discovered them. This is really a good disc if you appreciate the style and this along with Chastisement - ...But Lost We Are, were actually a couple of the first discs that I ever downloaded from the internet. I used to get a lot of stuff from mp3.com back in the early 2000's.
