The curiosity and the contrversy helped garner it a broader audience. No one talked about the interview footage of Martin Luther King Jr., or footage of actual Vietnam War protesting, or the cheeky subversiveness of the movie's antiauthoritarian humor. (Although the few scenes in which actors Lena Nyman and Borje Ahlstedt show off some hairy nether regions certainly helped distinguished this Swedish import from the usual foreign-film fare.) No, what put this story of a radical student having an affair with a married man in boiling hot water was the sequence in which Nyman plants a kiss on her costar's penis in full view that was enough to brew up a shitstorm that woud end up breaking down censorship barriers and ultimately help usher in an age of cinematic permissiveness. Shortly after 'Diabolical Age' was finally released and the band then played at 'Under the Black Sun Festival' in Germany.It wasn't just the pubic hair on display that got Vilgot Sjoman's political screed-cum-melodrama seized at customs when it was brought here in 1969, put at the center of an obscenity case tried by the Supreme Court and considered one of the more notorious films of its day. In 2000 they finally found a replacement for Thyme, his name was Astaroth. Rym had also come up with new material and thought it would be best with another guitarist so Sander of Shadow Dancers became a member. The following year, during the mixing, Thyme left the band because of other interests. At the end of 1998 recordings for the third album 'Diabolical Age' began in Endless Studio in Oslo. In 1998 they went on their first international tour played one gig in Denmark and seven in Germany, they also played at 'The Hellraiser Festival' in Leipzig, Germany. In 1997 they were back in the studio to record their second album 'Arising Realm' which featured Shagrath of Dimmu Borgir on keyboard.

They also played their first gig right after the release. They soon entered the studio and recorded their debut album 'Nattferd' which was released same year. In 1995 the band was signed Head Not Found Records.

They were soon joined by Thyme (vocals) and Rym (guitar) and then they recorded their first demo entitled 'Pagan Land'. Ragnarok was formed in 1994 in Norway by Jontho (drums) and Jerv (bass), who had just left their previous band Thoth. New versions of the CD’s are also available. This marks the first time these albums are available on vinyl. Here are the Ragnarok albums originally released on the Head Not Found label, licenced to and released by Indie Recordings.
