31.08.2006: Both onstage, at their debut performance at the Hole In The Sky Festival, as well as at the pre-show, media-only press conference, "I"/Immortal frontman (as he will continue recording and playing with both outfits, thus being "Between Two Worlds") Abbath made sure to stress that the track on the new album, "Far Beyond The Quiet" was written in honor of the deceased Bathory mastermind, Quorthon. Demonaz, the former Immortal guitarist and lyricist who had to bow out of that band due to ongoing hand problems, composed all the lyrics for "I"'s "Between Two Worlds", claiming to have attempted to write in the Swede's style.

26.07.2006: "I"'s debut album is now ready for mastering in Sweden, and will be released later this fall by Nuclear Blast Records. The album will be called "Between Two Worlds". Get ready for a masterpiece, "I" really can't wait to let you hear this gem!

The album was recorded in Bergen's Lydriket Studio with Geir Luedy, and Peter Tägtgren just completed the mix of the album. The album will be mastered in the beginning of August, so the countdown has seriously begun. Seriously - THIS ALBUM WILL KICK YOUR TEETH IN AND BREAK YOUR BACK! Abbath's vocals and licks, Ice Dale's fantastic guitar work, TC King's groovy basslines and Armagedda's insane drumwork...
