[MEDIA RELEASE] Century Media Records and InsideOutMusic have recently announced the upcoming “First Chapter” of a comprehensive catalog reissue campaign for legendary and groundbreaking Death Metallers Edge of Sanity as well as versatile Prog/Hardrock outfit Nightingale, who were both fronted by Swedish vocalist, multi-instrumentalist and acclaimed metal producer Dan Swanö (Opeth, Katatonia, Dissection, etc.).
Long out of print, never previously available in certain formats or in any properly re-worked re-issue version, as well as enhanced by tons of exciting extra-material, these definitive re-issues come efficiently all re-mastered by Swanö himself and partly even shine in a new light via additional remix efforts as bonus.
The following re-issues will kick off the “First Chapter” of the re-issue campaign on June 21:
- EDGE OF SANITY – Purgatory Afterglow (Re-issue)
- EDGE OF SANITY – Until Eternity Ends – EP (Re-issue)
- NIGHTINGALE – Nightfall Overture (Re-issue)
In order to support the start of the reissue campaign as well as to showcase the new treatment given to some of the material, you can now also check out the Edge of Sanity digital single and video clip for Edge of Sanity’s “Black Tears (Remaster 2024)”, taken from the upcoming Purgatory Afterglow reissue.
Dan Swanö checked in with the following comment about “Black Tears”,
“What kind of album Purgatory Afterglow should be took many turns and at one point it was gonna be an “all growls and back to the roots pure metal album”. So it’s quite strange that this track ended up on it in the end, and that it then even became the biggest “hit single” Edge Of Sanity ever had. There’s zero Death Metal going on here, but I still love it and always had a blast playing it live with both Edge Of Sanity and Nightingale”.
