"Tuiflsrijtt" is Bavarian/Austrian for “devil's ride” and associates both the Krampus runs and the history behind the Krampus figure (myth, legend and tradition). The album functions as a bridge across the borders of this world to the devil's realm and the Rauhnächte, conjuring not only the dark Krampus figure who tortures the flesh with his rods and chains and carries off the doomed souls, but also the essence of the Drude, who torments her victims, Perchten, who take the souls away to the realm of the dead and the raging demons of the Wild Hunt.
"Tuiflsrijtt" is a consistent further development of the existing concept. Atmospheric Black Metal with an old school touch of the 2nd wave, which, however, has clearly increased in speed and aggressiveness compared to previous releases.
Tief im vergessenen Schattenreich des Waldes, dort, wo das Licht kaum den Boden berührt und nur der Wind die uralten Namen der Bäume kennt, wurde er geboren: der „WALDMENSCH“ – ein Becher, schlicht und doch durchdrungen vom Geist der Wildnis.

BEHEXEN should require no introduction. One of the longest-running Finnish black metal bands, BEHEXEN have patiently spread out their album releases in such a manner that each serves as a tome, a poignant snapshot of that era of its creators, with each being unique in its headspace but undeniably coming from the same visionary minds. But prior to essential early albums like 2000's Rituale Satanum and 2004's classic By the Blessing of Satan, BEHEXEN had recorded a trio of equally compelling demos - and even one prior, under the moniker Lords of the Left Hand, in 1995.
This split album may seem like a strange pairing, but it couldn't be more fitting! Both entity's tracks are based around the paranormal and Occult activity which this particular Mountain is notorious for, not only in local folklore but Azgorh's own personal experiences in the house he grew up in on the mountain, as well as many experiences within the forest of the mountain over the years since... and still to this day.
