Editorial Review:Album Description:Agnen' is hyper-speed dark and epic black metal at its best, with subtle elements of thrash being evident throughout. The band's themes are inspired/based upon 'The Earthsea Quartet' the fantasy work by American writer U. Le Guin; an ancient world of magic and conflict between darkness and light. Keep of Kalessin was originally formed by Obsidian C. and Ghash in Trondheim, Norway in 1994. 'Agnen' was recorded at Brygga Studios, Trondheim (The 3rd and the Mortal) in October/November 1998. This is the band's second album, originally released in 1999.
