  • Description

    25th ANNIVERSARY OF FLEURETY'S SEMINAL 2000 ALBUM WHICH BROUGHT WEIRDNESS INTO THE NEW MILLENNIUM - ON CD & WHITE/BLACK MARBLE LP EDITION - FEATURES MEMBERS OF MAYHEM, ULVER, ARCTURUS, AURA NOIR & MORE, WITH NEWLY REMASTERED AUDIO - PRODUCED BY KRISTOFFER RYGG OF ULVER.


    Fleurety was formed in Ytre Enebakk, Norway in 1991, & is known for pioneering an experimental & boundary-breaking approach to black metal, integrating a variety of styles beyond purely metallic ones. The band has released three studio albums to date, plus a string of EP's, & has primarily existed as a duo featuring guitarist Alexander Nordgaren (formerly live guitarist for Norwegian legends, Mayhem) & drummer/vocalist Svein Egil "Zweizz" Hatlevik (Umoral, Strid, ex-Dodheimsgard) throughout their full history.

    Fleurety was considered a slight oddity to the rest of the Norwegian movement at the time of their inception, for developing an altogether different style with more dynamic musical influences & obscure & non-traditional riffing. Following on from the 'Black Snow' demo in 1993 & the 'A Darker Shade Of Evil' 7" the following year, the band presented their full-length debut to the world in the shape of 'Min Tid Skal Komme'; an exquisite & revered journey through dark & often introspective soundscapes.

    'Department Of Apocalyptic Affairs' followed in 2000 & revealed an even more avantgarde, eccentric & eclectic blend of genre fusing, with Nordgaren & Hatlevik joined by a multitude of guests on the album, including many legends of the Norwegian scene including Hellhammer & Maniac of Mayhem, & Kristoffer Rygg of fellow Norwegian experimentalists Ulver, who also handled production duties on the release.

    This edition of 'Department Of Apocalyptic Affairs' is presented on CD format including booklet with full lyrics, with audio specially remastered by Greg Chandler (Esoteric) at Priory Studios for this release.
