Why?

"Why exactly did Dimmu Borgir need to produce this album? I suppose it was to give Old Man's Child the opportunity to release some material. The Dimmu side consists of four tracks: "Master of Disharmony", "Devil's Path" and two, count them two versions of a Celtic Frost tune "Nocturnal Fear". The superior and "canonical" if you will version of "Master of Disharmony" is found on "Enthrone Darkness Triumphant" rendering this one almost entirely irrelevant. The title track is decent but nothing great. But why on earth do we need two nearly identical versions of a Celtic Frost? To take up space on the album no doubt. Old Man's Child gets the better half of the disc but even here the music is quite mediocre. All in all a pointless and disappointing release."
