Mixed at Fon studios engineered by Alan Fisch and Steve Harris (producer). It is released on Earache Records: Mosh 70 in 1992. The album title comes from the Fourth Crusade and the capturing of Constantinople. The cover artwork is a painting from Eugène Delacroix, showing "The Entry of the Crusaders in Constantinople". For this album Bolt Thrower slowed down considerably compared to War Master, focussing more on playing heavy riffs and a thick sound. Album feature more death/doom metal-driven style, and which was influenced by doom metal bands including Candlemass and Black Sabbath. Particularly, this style, is apparent in songs like "This Time It's War", or "As the World Burns". .
