Nuclear Blast To Use Sniffle Disc Technology For CATHEDRAL Digipak
September 29, 2005, 19 years ago
Due for release in North America in January 2006, CATHEDRAL's new CD, The Garden Of Unearthly Delights, will be available in a limited edition digipak in which the CD will be shaped as an apple. Not only that but heat built up during playback and rubbing of the label side of the CD reveals a green apple scent.
Nuclear Blast, long known for their special packages and special promotions, has started to use Sony's Sniffle Disc technology. According to http://www.sonydadc.com/products.special.sniffle.go, the aroma can be placed on all parts of the label-print and is released by rubbing the label. A Sniffle Disc will last for approximately one year and is available for CD-Audio and CD-ROM. It can also be combined with other Sony DADC Specials. Flower scents like rose or jasmine can be used to underline romantic themes or fruit scents like peach used for your summer hit compilation. Whatever you choose, our Sniffle Disc will make your CD stand out from the crowd.
The new Cathedral CD appears to be the first major Heavy Metal release to feature this special technology.
