Soulside Journey is the first studio album by Norwegian black metal band Darkthrone. It was released in January 1991 by Peaceville Records. It is notable as the band's only death metal album, before they became an integral part of the Norwegian black metal scene.

Background

The band's drummer, Fenriz, used the nickname "Hank Amarillo". Being that they had finally made it "big" and released an album,^[2] and due to his negativity toward the then-crop of death metal bands, Fenriz thought it would be appropriate to mockingly choose a "Western" name.^[2] Later pressings of the albums listed all of the band's pseudonyms rather than their real names.

Re-issue

The album was remastered and reissued by Peaceville in 2003, as well as being repackaged in a cardboard digipak. The first chapter of a four-part video interview, spanning the first four albums, with Fenriz and Nocturno Culto was also included as bonus material.
