Poland’s Agonia Records have announced the re-release of the classic debut album “The True Legend” from Swedish black metal wizards Svartsyn. It’s due out on March 20th in Europe and April 10th in North America.
The long sold out album, originally released in December 1996 by German label Folter Records, has been remastered at Clintworks Studio – a studio opened in Hamburg by Dennis Israel, partly re-recorded and topped with a new layout and cover drawn by US artist Chadwick St John.
The album will be available on CD as well as – for the first time – on vinyl. There will be a standard 12-inch black vinyl edition and a strictly limited to 100 copies colored vinyl edition (the latter available via Agonia Records Webshop exclusively).
Svartsyn’s latest album, “Wrath upon the Earth”, was released in 2011.
