OFFICIUM TRISTE To Celebrate 15th Anniversary This Year
January 6, 2009, 15 years ago
Netherlands-based death metallers OFFICIUM TRISTE have issued the following update:
"First of all we would like to wish you all the best for 2009! Hopefully it will be a wonderful year. As far as Officium Triste is concerned we've got quite a few things going on. April marks our 15th year in the business. We started out in April 1994 so do the math. To coincide with this anniversary a tour with EVOKEN and ISOLE is being set up. A couple of shows have already been booked and the others soon will be. Check our tour dates for further info. Since one of the shows on this tour will be at Baroeg in Rotterdam we decided to turn this into our 15th anniversary gig and next to the aforementioned Evoken and Isole both MOURNFUL CONGREGATION and LONGING FOR DAWN will be present as well as they happen to tour Europe around that time as well. So we were stoked to find out we could hook up all these bands together to have a great show and a great party. I bet you all like this line-up right? We've also come to an agreement with our label Displeased Records to come up with a special anniversary release. We're not going to tell you exactly what will be on it but expect a full-length with out of print material, new material, re-recorded material and a cover tune. Of course we'll make sure we have this album and all our (still available) previous releases with us on tour."
