Double CD in 6 page Digifile Mammoth stone walls stretching high into the unknown, dank cellars stewn with bones and ashes. A chill in the lonely night wind disturbed by the utterance of arcane phrases. This is music guaranteed to at least bring about thoughts of mysticism, if it doesn't produce mystical states outright. This defines the term hauntingly beautiful. 'In Sadness, Silence and Solitude', first released in 1997, is the fourth full-length album of Raison d'Être and is yet another astonishing dark ambient industrial masterpiece.
This new 2021 expanded edition is an updated version of the long sold-out expanded edition from 2014. It contains the same tracks but with a fresh new K-14 level mastering presenting the highest possible sound quality!
Released Early December 2021 by Old Europa Cafe.
