SVARTSYN - The True Legend Debut Album To Be Re-Released
January 23, 2012, 12 years ago
The re-release of Swedish black metal band SVARTSYN’s classic debut album, The True Legend, will be out on March 20th in Europe and April 10th in North America..
The True Legend album, the one from Svartsyn's discography that can boast of being sold out and not available for a dog's age, has been remastered in full at Clintworks Studio - a studio opened in Hamburg by Dennis Israel, an assistant engineer who previously worked with Jens Bogren at Fascination Street Studio. The re-release has been partly re-recorded and equipped with a new laylout and cover drawn by US artist Chadwick St John.
The album will be available as a CD and - for the first time – on vinyl. There will be a standard 12" black vinyl edition and a colored vinyl edition limited to 100 copies (the second one available via Agonia Records webshop exclusively).
Svartsyn have earned a cult status in the metal underground, releasing six albums to date. Their last full-length, Wrath upon the Earth, was out in 2011. The True Legend was originally released in December 1996 by German label Folter Records.
