ATROCITY: Upcoming Reissues Detailed

February 8, 2008

On February 29 in Europe and March 4 in North America, several remastered ATROCITY albums will be reissued to coincide with the release of the band's new album, "Werk 80 II".

Commented ATROCITY mainman Alex Krull, who remastered the LPs at his Mastersound studio: "Some of the albums were really hard to get or not available at all because they were sold out. It would be a shame not re-releasing these albums again. It is also a chance for our latest fans to get an overall view from the creative drive of the band ATROCITY and their diverse projects in the past. We were always giving our best at the moment we were doing these albums. Sometimes there is a chance to improve a little bit of it which makes the whole thing even more interesting. I've almost remastered the entire backkatalogue and there were indeed some things from the old recordings to do better soundwise. It was real fun and treasures like 'Blut', 'Willenskraft', 'Calling The Rain', 'Die Liebe', 'Todessehnsucht' or our debut album, 'Hallucinations', are gleaming now in new splendour. After the re-release of 'Todessehnsucht' there will be now some more releases besides the 'Werk 80 II' album on the 29th February. So this date is a multiple reason to be pleased with. On the one hand you will get the latest album, on the other you will get the album which were officially not available any more!"
