Panzerfaust, Darkthrone's fifth album, was originally released in 1995 on the Norwegian label, Moonfog (the label previously owned by Satyr of Satyricon).

The album was recorded similarly to their previous release, Transilvanian Hunger, in that it was written and recorded solely by Fenriz at his home 'Necrohell' studio, with Nocturno Culto later adding vocals.

Panzerfaust was largely inspired by the works of Celtic Frost, a long-time favorite of the Darkthrone members, and also included songs in the Bathory style, a follow-on to the faster tempo of the tracks featured on Transilvanian Hunger.

Panzerfaust is also notable for including some of the most raw and primal vocals in black metal - completely well suited to the music on display and the misanthropic nature of the band at the time.

With its feast of Frost-fueled riffing, Panzerfaust is rightly hailed as one of THE classic Darkthrone black metal albums, while also featuring lyrics written by Varg Vikernes.

This edition of Panzerfaust is presented on limited splatter-effect vinyl and includes a newly restored audio master for the album's 30th anniversary.
