Released in Europe on September 28 and in North America on October 9th via Nuclear Blast Records.

According to Ivar Bjørnson, "Riitiir" (occasionally typeset as "RIITIIЯ") is a "self-made "Norse-ified" version of the words "rites", "rituals". "Riitiir" = "The Rites of Man", to put it in a formulaic and easy way".

Official lyric video "Thoughts like Hammers" created for Nuclear Blast by Patrick Häberli
