industrial metal bandDødheimsgard . It marks the beginning of their transition from black metal to a more industrial sound, which wouldn't be fully realized until the next album,666 International .The album is yet more proof of how Dødheimsgard evolved through their discography. On "Traces of Reality" there is use of violin, and on the other tracks Hologram as the new member, adds effects using keyboard. As on their previous album,
Monumental Possession , vocal duties were split, but this time only between Aldrahn and Mr. Fixit (Apollyon had done some earlier vocal work on the previous album only).The outro, "Wrapped in Plastic" on this EP is also the intro on the follow up full album 666 International.
