TIAMAT - The Astral Sleep Vinyl Reissue Coming In May; Now Available For Pre-Order

Century Media Records will finally re-issue legendary Swedish act Tiamat’s second album, The Astral Sleep, on vinyl on May 11th.

Originally released in 1991, The Astral Sleep is a true masterpiece of forward-thinking death metal exploring doomier and sinister, atmospheric territories hinting at the diverse and daring gothic metal they were about to release to massive global success in the years to come. It was also the first album recorded with long-term producer Waldemar Sorychta.

The 2015 reissue is based on the original LP visually yet adds the 1991 CD-bonus track “A Winter Shadow” and was specially mastered for vinyl by Patrick W. Engel / Temple Of Disharmony (Grave, Dissection, Massacra). It comes on 180g vinyl with printed inner sleeve and full-colour labels. A beautiful edition of a morbidly beautiful album.

The following editions will be available and are now ready for pre-ordering:

– Gold vinyl – limited to 200 copies (exclusive to CMDistro.com / US online shop only!)
