VOND Reissue Set For U.S. Release

May 6, 2004

Norway's VOND, the side-project of the artist more popularly known as MORTIIS, will have their "rare and controversial" recording, "Selvmord", released in the U.S. on May 18 through Candlelight Records.

Issued to limited release in 1997 (under the guise of "Slipp Sorgen Los"),"Selvmord" is a four-song, 50-minute ambient adventure that showcased for the first time the industrial-tinged side of the darkwave/ambient musician. The album artwork sparked immediate controversy on the record's initial European release — with several territories banning the LP. The album was later issued with two separate album covers so that fans in Germany and other countries could experience the record.
