"Ases" is the French word for Æsir (plural of the Old Icelandic Áss: "God") who are the members of a family of gods such as Þórr or Óðinn attested both in the Poetic and the Prose Edda. The term is however sometimes used (Especially in the Prose Edda) to refer to all the Norse gods in general including thus the gods of the Vanir family.

The ghost track at the end of "Of moonlords...", is a new version of a title feature on the demo cd "Relics of the past" call "The cold Death"...
Ases participated at the compilation "Unis contre les religions du désert" by EuropArt.
