In Memory of Quorthon is a box set of three audio CDs and one DVD with remastered material from Bathory, Quorthon's solo efforts, and the Jennie Tebler project.

The track list was selected by "Boss" Forsberg. Artwork was by Kristian Wåhlin (Necrolord). All songs were remastered. A poster of Quorthon breathing fire taken from the 1987 Session in London's Railway Bridge of London was included. Text written by Quorthon personally appears in italics. Besides lyrics, the book features Bathory’s history, discography, background on the first recordings – with titles, years, studios, covers - and even a couple of photographs. Nearly all of this is from Quorthon’s and Boss's own private archives.

The fourth disc is a DVD containing the 11-minute video for “One Rode To Asa Bay”, as well as the MTV interview Quorthon did in London for the release of “Hammerheart”.
