Picture disc in die-cut cover. Limited 400 numbered copies

After three Therion albums the band were at a crossroad. Theirdebut Of Darkness was death metal, Beyond Sanctorum was veryexperimental but still death metal then came Symphony Masses: HoDrakon Ho Megas and album experimenting with everything from jazz,industrial music, gothic chanting and 80s heavy metal. The bandwere out touring and working hard but things didnt really paid offand after the tour the band were about to falla part. Two membersleft leaving Therion as a trio. Then Chris went off to record analbum with the Swiss band Messiah. But at this time when the bandseemed to be no more they got an offer from Nuclear Blast whowanted to sign the band. The band headed into the Music Lab Studioin Berlin to record their fourth album Lepaca Kliffoth. The singleThe Beauty In Black was pressed in an amount of 12 000 copies andit were sold out. Then the album Lepaca Kliffoth became a bigsuccess and suddenly the band were at their turning point. LepacaKliffoth featured soprano and bass-baritone vocals, more keyboardsand more melodies and this is where Therion cut off the finalbounds to death metal. The title track on this Beauty In Blacksingle is the perfect example of Therion transitioning from deathmetal to symphonic metal with their operatic vocals. Another fineexample is Evocation Of Vovin where the growled vocals are thrownin between the baritone and the soprano. The last track on thesingle, The Veil Of Golden Spheres, sounds more like death metalthe band performed on the previous album. Thick riffs, strangerhythm and an Egyptian flavor.
