HORNA - Envaatnags Eflos Solf Esgantaavne Gatefold Vinyl

Re-issue of Horna's fifth full length album, Ääniä Yössä, originally released in 2007 via Debemur Morti Productions. Ääniä Yössä was created and recorded entirely by Shatraug and Corvus alone in two phases: first part in early 2004 and second later during the same year. The album is based on a concept of the Yersinia Pestis curse that triumphed over Europe mainly during the 14th century.

One of the releases we've been asked about most over the years is undoubtedly a vinyl re-release of Horna's seventh album, “Sanojesi äärelle,” originally released in 2009. We're proud to present this re-release as it was originally intended, with both heavy vinyl LPs housed in their own gatefold covers.

The vinyl version of Horna's new album, Nyx - Hymnejä Yölle, comes with heavy vinyl, insert and 2 artwork prints.

2023 repress on silver vinyl. Comes with a folding insert. The layout is the exact same as the first pressing.

From the past comes the storms...of icy, grandiose, paradigmatically Finnish black metal, bearing the no-bullshit title of Ymir. As can be expected, YMIR's long-brewing debut album is both a summation of their sparse but no-less-considerable past and a strident extension into both present and future. Never before have the band sounded so invigorated, so robust and roiling in their sweepingly sumptuous ruminations; the aim may be for mystical black metal of a most mid-'90s vintage, but the palpable physicality present here puts Ymir in rarefied company, whether it's past or especially present. Suitably, YMIR create epic screeds which open portals of the imagination and ancient consciousness alike, reverent to the old ways of noble black metal faith but by no means tethered to reductive expression: simply put, YMIR are a black metal band and Ymir is a black metal record, but their collective scope is boundless, brave, and breathing deeply of an essence few are able to grasp in the nowadays scene.

Gatefold Double LP version of Horna's upcoming tenth album, Kuoleman Kirjo, including a 20 pages LP booklet and etching on Side D.
