Heavy triple gatefold jacket with two LPs and a bonus 7 inch. Black vinyl, 300 copies.
Svart presents a heavily extended reissue of The Group’s only album, originally released on Finnlevy’s prog rock
imprint Hi Hat in 1978. The 2nd LP features an extended studio session with the Sibelius academy orchestra, and
the extra 7″ has two studio outtakes from the original album.

Along with Kingston Wall earlier in the 1990s and HIM later in the same decade, Jimsonweed were an integral part of
the Helsinki rock scene. Their brand of organic heavy metal was original enough to attract local followers but
too original to make it internationally. The band had a wild stage reputation, yet managed to capture their
psychedelic Indian flavored stoner metal on only one full length album.
This is that album. Released on CD only in 1996, the album’s vinyl debut comes in gatefold covers and either
black or green vinyl, both limited editions. The last LP side has three extra songs, all of which are previously
unreleased....

Double LP 
For this heavy duty reissue of Koivistoinen’s 1977 album we went back to the original multitrack tapes and
discovered a heap of alternate takes that were left unmixed at the time. Koivistoinen selected the best and
most interesting alternate versions of each track and a new, fresh mix was prepared specifically for this release.
The first LP in this package is the original studio album (Love Records 1977), remastered for vinyl at Finnvox. The
second LP contains the alternate takes, including two versions of the studio outtake Meat & Potatoes.

Svart's  Eero Koivistoinen reissue project continues with his Love Records albums. This 1976 fusion diamond has
never before been reissued on vinyl, so it’s finally time to throw those CD reissues away and get in the groove.

Fresh from helping to resurrect In The Woods..., prolific underground metal artist James Fogarty then immediately
began to reconstruct his long running solo effort Ewigkeit and record the new album Cosmic Man, which is set for
international release on July 14th via Svart Records. With a history of creating novelty, James' newest Ewigkeit
release is not without its own enigma.
Lyrically melding the motifs of Terence McKenna and the psychedelic counter culture with the music of the various
rocks, metals, and alloys, Cosmic Man takes you from the haze of the early '70s via a NWOBHM detour, followed by a
refuel and oil change at extreme metal. From then on, it's out with the star charts for a left turn at Alpha Centauri
and straight down the inter galactic highway toward the transcendental object at the end of time.
