The Anekdoten Newsletter #19, February 2004

Welcome to newsletter #19!


Nucleus remastered

Nucleus was re-released on Thursday. The CD has been remastered and includes a never before released bonus track called Luna Surface, which was recorded during the Nucleus sessions, but has been left in the vaults until now. The booklet has been revised and enhanced for this reissue. It's now 16 pages and includes additional photos and liner notes by Geir Larzen, chief editor of the Norwegian Monster Magazine. We think that Christoffer Stannow, who also mastered From Within and Gravity has done a great job with Nucleus and we are happy to present this updated version of this ol', but kicking, collection of songs.


Video

The video for "The War Is Over", shot in the archipelago of Stockholm, is now available for download at www.anekdoten.se. See us move in Quicktime- (15 Mb) or wmv-format (5 or 12 Mb)!

Introducing the Anekdoten shop!

The Anekdoten Shop has opened! It's now possible to buy vinyl editions of Nucleus, From Within and Gravity and Anekdoten t-shirts from our website. Check out www.anekdoten.se for details.

Disclaimer: It might take some time before the orders are shipped during the next one and a half months because of our upcoming touring activities.


Upcoming gigs

We are very excited to announce that we have more gigs than ever coming up in the next few months! And two of the gigs are in countries we've never played before (Mexico and the Netherlands)! On Tuesday we will leave for the Baja Prog festival in Mexico and in April we will do our biggest tour so far in Europe. We will share the bill with our friends Ritual (homepage: www.ritual.se) for all the European dates (including Stockholm). Both bands are scheduled to play 90 minute sets at all dates. There might be more dates added for the Anekdoten/Ritual-tour, so check www.anekdoten.se for updates.
