Description

Still sealed double cd in a hardcover 18×18 cm artbook with a 72 page booklet

This is an ultimate collectors edition of the Hamburg based duo St. Michael Front’s debut album. The Beginning And The End Of Ahriman contains the debut album End Of Ahriman as well as a second cd featuring two exclusive versions of songs from the In The Wake Of A New Dream EP (2016) and eight previously unreleased tracks – the song Sad King, five instrumentals, and two remixes. St. Michael Front have enjoyed a lightning start in their native Germany. The two former art students, Bruder Matthias and Bruder Sascha probably did not expect such an overwhelming reception for their debut full-length that happily combined Honolulu-Schlager, dark pop, and neofolk to a firework of catchy tunes and cunning, tongue-in-cheek esoteric lyrics. End Of Ahriman stormed the charts of German station Radioeins Charts with the song Once and remained in the pole position for six weeks. Fans of electronic music and gothic neofolk probably already knows about this band. If not then its time to discover the early English-language phase of St. Michael Front in it’s entirety via this beautiful deluxe edition
