back to news Esoteric Emotions - The Death of Ignorance Demo 1993 re-released 26th December 2017

26 December 2017

 

Esoteric – Esoteric Emotions: The Death of Ignorance – CD digibook now available.

Here is the Press release from Aesthetic Death:  

25 years since Esoteric wrote the tracks for their 1993 demo – "Esoteric Emotions: The Death of Ignorance" – it is a very special day for me to announce the re-issue of those recordings on a new limited digibook cd version

Following recent high internet prices for the original demotape, along with bootleg versions recently appearing, it seemed right to now make the demo finally available again.

With "The Death of Ignorance" you will hear Esoteric tracks from their formative months as a band, yet instantly hearing the unique sound that has defined Esoteric and which has been nurtured and developed in the years since. Just check out tracks like "Eyes of Darkness", "Scarred", "Esoteric", "In Solitude" etc to hear what made this demo so special.

For its age, and its doom extremity, this demo was ground-breaking - it had a decent sound even with the recording limitations of the time, this been re-mastered by Greg Chandler at Priory Recording Studios in 2017 for this release.

Comes on a beautiful 20 page digibook CD edition, along with a replica of the original 1993 flyer. 

Beautiful new artwork and layout by Meriel Longmore
