Does anyone know if the recent (2023/2023) Prophecy reissues of Aspera are the same remaster as the 2002 Candlelight edition, or different - and if different, how does it sound in comparison to both that and the original? Thanks!

Sounds amazing, but mine is missing a poster! Anyone else who received this without?

Very clean sounding picture disc, almost zero background. One of my favorites

Looks like they used a band photo from La Masquerade Infernale era for the poster...

Do not buy this shitty bootleg. I grabbed it from a trusty seller and the cassette had no music on it whatsoever. The seller mentioned that the organization that booted this had a reputation of being shady. He said someone involved with Judas Iscariot but I'm not sure who's responsible. Regardless, steer clear of this one.

not sure im buying this is real the pictures are clearly just on picture posted twice, pretty obvious from the poly wrinkles.....

Stunning album! One of the the most atmospheric and majestic full-lengths out of norwegian black metal scene. It's like a great journey through the northern forest with aurora borealis above.
As for this tape released by Mystic - there is other version (that I have) with gold letters written on tape shell in different font. That version is older (as all of the Mystic tapes from their first years of activity). Version with white letters is (probably) a repress.

So have more copies been found? Because now it seems that seven people own this.
