SPECIAL COMBINED RELEASE INCLUDING FLEURETY’S HARD TO FIND 1999 EP, PLUS THE RARE I LEFT THE PLANET PROJECT TRACKS FROM 1996 INCLUDING MEMBERS OF VED BUENS ENDE/AURA NOIR. WITH NEWLY REMASTERED AUDIO.
Fleurety was formed in Ytre Enebakk, Norway in 1991, & is known for pioneering an experimental & boundary-breaking approach to black metal, integrating a variety of styles beyond purely metallic ones. The band has released three studio albums to date, plus a string of EPs, & has primarily existed as a duo featuring guitarist Alexander Nordgaren (formerly live guitarist for Norwegian legends, Mayhem) & drummer/vocalist Svein Egil “Zweizz” Hatlevik (Umoral, Strid, ex-Dødheimsgard) throughout their full history.
Fleurety was considered a slight oddity to the rest of the Norwegian movement at the time of their inception, for developing an altogether different style with more dynamic musical influences and obscure/non-traditional riffing. Following on from the ‘Black Snow’ demo in 1993 & the ‘A Darker Shade of Evil’ 7” the following year, the band presented their full-length debut to the world in the shape of ‘Min Tid Skal Komme’; an exquisite and revered journey through dark and often introspective soundscapes.
‘Last Minute Lies’ was originally released in 1999, preceding the band’s second full-length album, ‘Department of Apocalyptic Affairs’, and introduced a taste of the demented sophistication yet to come through their ongoing penchant for the strange and bizarre. The result was a mind-bending (or expanding) voyage of eccentricity within the metal genre, presenting a new masterclass in avantgarde mood-setting in the process.
Also included in this special release is the rare I Left The Panet project recordings from 1996, where Nordgaren was joined by a number of guests for this anomaly of dark and poetic jazzy-metal, notably featuring fellow prodigy of avant-garde metal and percussionist extraordinaire, Carl-Michael Eide of Ved Buens Ende/Aura Noir.
On what is the 35th anniversary of the band’s formation, this edition of ‘Last Minute Lies/I Left The Planet’ is presented on CD format including booklet with full lyrics, with audio specially remastered by Greg Chandler (Esoteric) at Priory Studios for this release.
