Berlin psychedelic hard rock trio KADAVAR has announced the release of a special edition of last years’ Abra Kadavar. The 2CD set, called Abra Kadavar Special Edition, will include the full tracklist of Abra Kadavar plus a bonus track, as well as a full live set recorded in Antwerp. Furthermore, Kadavar will put out a separate vinyl release called Live In Antwerp, that comes as a 2LP set and also features the full live concert.

Abra Kadavar Special Edition and Live In Antwerp will be released on June 6th (Europe) and June 9th (UK / France) via Nuclear Blast.

Commented the band: "With over 250 shows played, we have always considered ourselves as an absolute live band. Our sound on stage is different from the one on the studio albums and thus we’ve been asked time and again, why we don’t do a live release. The time seemed right now and on our last EU tour we recorded some of the shows. Antwerp was the best of them. I would even say one of the best in 2013. Everything was right, people were in a great mood and I am very happy with the sound – especially since it does not sound like every other live album!"

The two releases will feature two different covers, as shown below.
