Welt, stylised as weLt, is the first album released by Ogre and Mark Walk under the ohGr name. Despite its initial release in 2001, the album was first recorded back in 1995, after which the tracks were promptly shelved by Ogre's record label. After a long legal battle, Ogre was unable to attain the master recordings even after his contract with the label was over, so the entire album had to be re-recorded from scratch. The artwork for the album was created by Roman Dirge.
