I came to the decision to put Krieg to rest due to what can only be considered a series of bad decisions due to an overall nervous breakdown, a hole which took me years to emerge from. I have spent the time since trying to make amends, repair bridges, move forward as it were but I always had regrets as to how this record came out. The way the samples were blended in, the overall lack of power in the sound, the failure to use the proper cover. All of this was directly my
responsibility and like anything in my life in 2005 I shit the bed and laid in it like an invalid. Earlier this year I came across the original version of the album, before I went into Orchard and submitted it for final release. It had a raw urgency to it that I knew was there but never was able to make public. Now for the first and final time I can present "Blue Miasma" as it should have sounded almost a decade ago.

Forever Plagued Records (FPR) was started back in 2002 with their debut release Darkest Grove - The Rudimentary Of Pessimism demo and their sophomore Sombrous - Transcending The Umbra. For many years FPR remained within the deep underground with very little exposure. FPR will forever represent the deep and dark black metal underground movement and searches for the most evil art in black metal.
