High Quality
‘Dance of December Souls’ was the debut album from Katatonia, who have since risen to the forefront of the gothic metal genre. Katatonia was formed in Stockholm, Sweden in 1991 by Jonas Renkse and Anders Nystrom. The album was recorded at Unisound Studios, April 1993 and released later that same year. Engineering and mixing were handled by Dan Swano (Opeth, Marduk, Dissection). This early incarnation of Katatonia contained a more doom/black metal approach, whilst always keeping the trademark sorrowful & hypnotic guitar melodies which are still evident today. The album exudes an atmosphere of utter melancholy, accentuated by the growled, despairing vocals of Jonas. Katatonia quickly became part of the leaders of the gothic doom movement alongside top UK acts Paradise Lost, My Dying Bride and Anathema. This LP edition of ’Dance of December Souls’ is presented on 180gm black vinyl in a single sleeve complete with printed inner bags.

KATATONIA – DISCOURAGED ONES (LP VINYL)
’Discouraged Ones’ was Katatonia’s third album, originally released in 1998. The band was formed in Stockholm, Sweden in 1991 by Jonas Renkse and Anders Nystrom & have risen from their early beginnings in dark death/gothic doom metal to become one of the leading acts of the metallic rock/prog scene. ’Discouraged Ones’ was recorded in 1997 at the infamous Sunlight Studios by Fred Estby and Tomas Skogsberg (Entombed, Dismember). The album saw a new direction change with the epic compositions of old replaced with stripped down, compact structures to make room for new vocal harmonies courtesy of Jonas Renkse (who also played drums on the album), putting an end to the growling vocal style from prior releases and giving the band a broader appeal.This was somewhat of a breakthrough album for Katatonia which undoubtedly planted the seeds, stylistically, of what the band evolved into & represent today. ’Discouraged Ones’ is a pinnacle of dark, gothic rock/metal excellence combined with ethereal, trance-like intensity.
This edition of ’Discouraged Ones’ is presented on double black vinyl with gatefold sleeve, & includes the bonus tracks, ’Quiet World’ (from the ‘Discouraged Ones’ recording session) and ’Scarlet Heavens’, a rare track from 1994.
