THE 69 EYES To Release 'Goth'N'Roll' Box Set

August 26, 2008

Finnish goth metallers THE 69 EYES will release a box set called "Goth'n'Roll" in Finland on Halloween. The box set will contain three CDs and one DVD.

"Goth'N'Roll" documents THE 69 EYES' period from 1998 to 2003 when the band broke into the mainstream success in Finland and spread their Helsinki vampire bat wings over Europe. "Blessed Be" and "Paris Kills" are considered the band's classic gothic rock albums by both fans and critics alike. Both albums are here re-mastered with bonus tracks. The DVD is the same period's "Helsinki Vampires", also re-mastered, featuring a live show recorded at Tavastia, Helsinki in 2002, all the videos, extras and also a never-before-released documentary "Bat Habit" from the same period. The third CD is "Goth'N'Roll Archives" which includes demos and never-before-released material from 1998 to 2003.

The beautiful python skin PVC-wrapped box set is designed by Natas and the liner notes in the illustrated 28-page booklet are written by Natasha Scharf (Metal Hammer, TotalRock). The box set will be released on Gaga Goodies/Poko Rekords/EMI Finland.
