Sopor Aeternus – The Early Years Vinyl Record LP

Limited Edition Vinyl – Hand‑Numbered /300
Label: Satan New Church Records
Catalogue: SNCS 23
Format: 12" Vinyl LP
Condition: Near Mint (Brand New Just Not Sealed)

A highly sought‑after limited‑pressing compilation documenting the earliest recordings of Sopor Aeternus & The Ensemble of Shadows, capturing the raw, ritualistic foundations of Anna‑Varney Cantodea’s darkwave legacy.

This edition brings together the complete “Ex Abirion – Die Toten So Schnell” 1989 demo tape along with additional early‑period demo material, restored and presented with the project’s signature gothic aesthetic.

The release features:

  • Heavy gothic artwork with signature portrait photography

  • Hand‑numbered limitation (300 copies only)

  • Distinctive Satan New Church labels (“SATAN NEW CHURCH / NEC‑A”)

  • Archival demo material never widely distributed

  • A cult‑favourite item among darkwave, neoclassical, and ritual‑goth collectors

A rare opportunity to own one of the most elusive Sopor Aeternus vinyl issues, especially in this low‑numbered edition.

  • Includes the complete 1989 “Ex Abirion – Die Toten So Schnell” demo tape

  • Also includes several early‑period demos previously unavailable on vinyl

  • Released under Satan New Church
