Cyclone Empire is proud to announce the release of “Effigies Of Desolation” double CD by Germany’s finest Death/Doom outfit OPHIS!
The release will include an exclusive re-issue of their highly acclaimed debut album “Streams Of Misery” and their longtime sold-out EP “Nostrae Mortis Signaculum” plus some previously unreleased bonus material. The exclusive Digipack reissue is going to be released on 26th April, 2013 accompanied with a performance at the famous “Doom Shall Rise Festival”.
“When Cyclone Empire voiced interest in re-releasing our first two records, the "Nostrae Mortis Signaculum" EP (2004) and the debut album "Stream of Misery" (2007), it was both a surprise and an honour. Both records were out of print and sold out (except for maybe some rest stocks in small distros), but since they were not THAT old (at least not the debut), it was sort of a compliment to see that there is still some professional interest in those records. To keep up our standards of offering a worthy product, we added some bonus tracks from our very own archives - demos and live recordings - which are somewhat raw and imperfect, but combined with the tracks from the official CDs they show a picture of Ophis' early years in all its facettes. In our eyes, this is not a simple re-release, it is a compilation of old Ophis stuff and a view behind the scenes as well - that's why we chose to give it a new name and an exclusive artwork. Enjoy the suffering! – OPHIS 2013”.
