Description

Long time sold-out, finally here comes the re-edition of this cult and seminal album, originally released in 1993 on Cold Meat Industry. A stunning blend of the modern soft gothic sound and the timeless chants of Catholic rituals. It is at once a beautiful sound, yet also filled with melancholy.Archaic layers of string sounds, bells and choirs are intermingling with heavy drums and industrial loops creating an unsettling and threatening background atmoshere whilst spleen and sweetness forms the foreground. "Prospectus I" was the first official CD album by Raison D"ĂȘtre.In order to celebrate the 20th years anniversary it has now been made available as a reduxed andenhanced 2CD album. All the sounds have been restored and partly re-recorded from original sources and all the tracks have been carefully mixed to maintain the true feeling and atmosphere of the original album but with the modern standards for highest audio quality.The first disc is mirroring the tracks of the original album, while the second disc contains a majorselection of tracks from the "Prospectus I" session previously available on the "Lost Fragments" and"Collective Archives" collections.Released late February 2013 on Old Europa Cafe.Track Listing CD1:01 Katharsis02 Ordeal in Chapel03 Ascension de Profundis04 Mourning05 Mesmerized in Sorrow06 Cenotaphium07 Synopsis08 Anathema/Apotheosis09 PenumbraCD2:01 Cantharsis02 Chalixtins03 Decalogue04 Out of the Depths...05 Enshrouding06 Inquest07 In Extremis08 Decay II09 Dissection III10 The Revival11 Decay I12 Katharsis (early version)13 Penumbra (alternative end part)
