Krieghallen is a book of illustrations inspired by the works produced in the legendary Grieghallen Studio in Norway. It contains pictures by various artists, curated by Metastazis. The book is available to the public as of 1 March 2014 via Timeless.
Grieghallen Studio was the place where black metal cornerstones like De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas, the first Immortal albums, the first Burzum albums and many more were recorded. Krieghallen is a collective effort paying tribute to the works produced in that studio. Its 32 pages gather 20 artists from all over the world.
The effort is curated by French graphic design studio Metastazis. Metastazis describe the artists involved in the effort as nostalgic: “Nostalgic from a time time when Norwegian Black Metal didn’t need to be trve to be true, but also dangerous, controversial, mysterious, worshipped by a few and despised by the rest, unlike the pathetic circus that we’re all witness of nowadays.”
The book comes in 30X40cm size and is limited to 300 copies.
