Ophthalamia

So who here owns Ophthalamia "Dominion"?

Features It of Abruptum, Benny from Edge Of Sanity/Pan-Thy-Monium and I can't remember who else, someone significant if I remember correctly...
I pulled this off of the shelf today to give it a spin. Nice engineering by Tagtgren and co. I think this is quite overlooked.

However, I don't know a whole lot about this band. I have owned every album of theirs at one point or another though.

 
One other album with IT that I heard was Vondur's "Stridsifysling" or whatever. That one was funny with the whole Star Wars theme.
 
I never did hear Abruptum, but I was always curious about Vondur's other album with the COnfederate Flag. Weird dude.

Think of a Midget on crack being raped my wolves underwater and you have the sound of Abruptum.

Ohh I forgot that both Nodveidt's worked with them too. the only work Ive heard from 'It" besides on Abprutum was the guest vocals on SOTLB, which wasnt bad, but not terribly audible either.
 
I'm trying to get hold of Dominion and Via Dolorosa. They're not so high on my priorities, but I want 'em :)
