(Releasedate - 24th of September.)

1995 – 2025 / 30th anniversary release!

In its original CD form, this has been ABIGOR´s most celebrated and best sold album, together with CRADLE OF FILTH´s debut heralding the start of Gothic Black Metal. Yet in stark contrast to the commercial traits, behind the well-implemented female vocals and tasteful keyboard additions lurks a backbone of Satanic Black Metal in its most radical form – by that, being a true product of the underground’s peak moment, when Black Metal reared its most ugly head in 1995.

In this regard, Nachthymnen is an almost solitary case, written by the reckless Austrian triumvirate at the age of 19 and 20, uniting beauty and wickedness, melancholic longing and an apocalyptic death drive. The most majestic album in the band’s history, capturing the essence of the fully blossoming 90s Black Metal scene at its turning point – the freedom and extremism of a scene which fell victim to a crisis of disorientation and mainstream corruption soon after. Nachthymnen may be one of the albums to blame for that, but remains fully innocent in its intention and execution. 9 hymns to the night, to demonic magic and the twilight kingdom.

This LP version in a glossy gatefold-sleeve for the first time delivers 1995 Hörnix sound perfectly transferred to vinyl, featuring a bonus CD with 1994/95 instrumental demo-rehearsals including early alternative versions, an extensive 32 page booklet, a poster and a brand-new master as download card as well.

Galaxy purple cyan blue vinyl in gatefold.
