The Classic Dark Ambient Masterpiece Reissued as Double LP & CD
Originally released in 1999, Sephiroth’s "Cathedron" remains a landmark in the dark ambient and tribal industrial genres. Now, this long-time classic returns in a stunning double LP and CD reissue, offering both longtime fans and new listeners the chance to experience its immersive depths like never before.
Created in the early 90's by Ulf Söderberg, Sephiroth was born from a profound fascination with myths, rituals, and ancient monuments left behind by lost civilizations. Inspired by the works of Graeme Revell, Lustmord, and Nurse With Wound, the album unfolds as an auditory journey through the inexorable passage of time, evoking images of sunken cities, fallen towers, and overgrown ruins swallowed by nature’s relentless grasp. Dark, eerie soundscapes, ritualistic percussion, and field recordings from Cairo, Iceland, and the Nordic wilderness converge to form an unforgettable sonic experience.
This new edition brings the album to life in its most immersive format yet, with bonus material and expanded packaging that pays homage to its legacy. A must-have for any dark ambient collection, this reissue cements Cathedron as an essential masterpiece of the genre.
CD edition of 300 copies in 6 panel digisleeve. 7 Tracks. Running Time 54:14
2LP edition, 100 copies on Marbled Vinyl, 200 copies on black vinyl, in gatefold sleeve. 7 Tracks. Running Time 54:14

Goes smooth as Vampire teeth in your throat at full moon. Incredible album...

supported by 46 fans who also own “Cathedron”
At "The Citadel", we are welcomed by something we didn't expect that makes us think deeply and alone, wondering if ignorance would have been a better fate, rather than the bitter and brutal truth we encountered. The last song perfectly captures that feeling of unease that won't go away.

Apparatus
by Atrium Carceri & Kammarheitsupported by 44 fans who also own “Cathedron”
Every Kammarheit / Atrium Carceri collaboration explores a different facet of cinematic dark ambient and “Apparatus” is no exception. Excellent, resonant work— though I wish all these tracks were longer.
