Afraid they're hoping not to release their previous work again, aren't they? Confused

Greg Walker is an excellent retailer of prog CDs with a fabulous selection, fast service, reasonable prices.  I wish I'd known about him long ago!  And he's a really nice guy, too.

Änglagård Records on it and the booklet has details of Änglagård Records (website and email address) and catalogue details of the full Änglagård discography. I've never seen the re-released version, but I guess this is identical to it but with just a few amendments to the packaging.

In total, it cost me £18.73 with all the taxes, charges and postage and packing. I've just had another look at the website and the shipping outside of the EU is only 10 SEK more (for one or two CDs) than to all EU destinations, so I think you'll be looking at 225 SEK, which is currently about US$27.50. But I'm sure it'll be picked up by prog distributors in the States anyway -- it depends how desperate you are to get your hands on it!

 
Thanks for the report, Jorvik!  It sounds like the packaging is wonderful--perhaps it's finally been given the release it deserves!  Clap

Maybe this is a sign that I should give these guys another chance. I never understood what all the hype was about this album, but who knows? I could listen to this re-issue and totally change my thinking.

I got into Anekdoten and White Willow because of my love for
Änglagård. All three bands sound different, but there's definitely a "Scandinavian sound" in common to them. I guess some of the more pastoral sections sound reminiscent of bits of Genesis, just Scandinavian pastoral rather than distinctly English.

In addition to the two tracks up here, there's another track from Epilog, a demo of Ifrån Klarhet Till KlarhetVandringar i Vilsenhet (both from Hybris) here if you want more of an idea of what their music is like.

Thanks for the recommendation, Negoba. I'm a big Genesis fan and I like the Scandinavian touch (bands like Anekdoten and White Willow), so I suppose this really could be something for me, because if I recall well, the music has some links to Genesis and really is Scandinavian in sound.

The album is amazing. Epilog is a little mellower, but still very very good. If you like prog, get them both.
You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all.

I'm really curious about the album. I just didn't want to spend more than a 100 dollars or euros for a copy. It's very interesting news.

A date for Epilog ? Would be wise to order them both at the same time.


There was no date when I ordered on Sunday night, I think just vague mention of "in a few months" or something similar.

I already own Epilog, however, if I did not I would still have ordered Hybris now rather than waiting to order both at once – I wouldn't want to miss out just to save a few pounds on postage and packing LOL
