Yes, it's true. "Cycle of Life" is already out as a steaming hot CD re-release. Better yet, it's remastered from the original master tapes unlike the Italian Mellotorn press. There's an 8-page booklet and the release is top quality in every way. No bonus songs though.
And it gets even better - it costs only 5€!
The only problem is that you can't find it in regular record shops. It's released by a label called Poptori (who happen to be some sort of continuation to JP-music who released all the Sarcofagus vinyls originally). The label have their own distribution net which basically consist of small CD stands in selected gas stations, flea markets and grogery stores here and there (in the middle of nowhere) throughout the country. Today I went through 4 places in the nearby area and found a total of two copies. Ok, it's a fresh release so hopefully the situation gets better soon.
Anyway, it's out. Consider yourselves being informed.
P.S. "Envoy of Death" (and possibly "Moottorilinnut") will follow if "Cycle of Life" turns out to be a success. The label in general have nothing to do with metal or even rock so sold units is the only thing they care for.

There isn't any mention of the release at their website yet. Truly they only drop a handfull of copies at their CD stands and I don't know how often they fill in. At least for starters all the copies of Sarcofagus are gonna get picked up faster than they are filling in.Azaras wrote:Do they have net distribution?
