The track "How Far To Asgaard" is actually only 08:59 in length. After the song ends, there is 09:50 of silence and at 18:49 begins the Faroese poem "Nornagest Ríma".

'Hail to the Hammer', 'God of War', 'Ormunrin Langi' and 'How Far to Asgaard' are re-recordings of tracks from Týr's demo.

The song 'Hail to the Hammer' was re-recorded once more and used on the band's 2008 album 'Land'.

The album was re-released in 2008 (by Napalm Records) with different cover artwork and 2 bonus tracks:
09. Ólavur Riddararós (Single Version) (04:36)
10. Stýrisvølurin (Single Version) (20:14)*
* this song is so long because the hidden poem that normally appears on the end of the album's title track is placed at the end of the last bonus track now. 'How Far to Asgaard' only lasts 08:59 on this reissue.
