As previously reported, The Monolith Deathcult issued the following update in November:
"At the moment we are very busy with the rerecordings of The re-White re-Crematorium 2.0. In our insatiable desire to always receive the highest possible ratings we decided to take the 2005 recordings to an even higher level of perfection. The album will be remixed and remastered again by Pro Tools grandwizard Pascal Altena.The big question is: What will be new?
- Shiny new vocals without all the hideous grammar mistakes- Colossal editing to restore all goofs
- Immense editing on all slips of abominable clerical errors, factual
inaccuracies and lies
- More brown notes on 0.017 Khz- Immensely interesting and totally fascinating introduction by Robin, the grand doctor of pedantry, spin and pompous circumlocution
- Inclusion of the totally sold-out and extremely kvlt Obliteration Of The Despised promo, infuriating those who have the original promo and
feel rejected, left behind and not-so-special any more.
The White Crematorium 2.0: 'Army Of The Despised', '7 Months Of Suffering', 'Concrete Sarcophagus', '1567 - Under The Bloodcampaign', 'The Haunted Ravines Of Babi Yar', 'Origin', 'The Cruel Hunters', '1917 - Spring Offensive (Dulce Et Decorum Est)', 'The White Crematorium'.
Obliteration of the Despised(2002): 'Doomed To Slaughter', 'The Deserved Reputation Of Cruelty', 'Der Kriegmeister', 'Cathedral Of Corpses'."
