CD+DVD EDITION OF THE ELECTRIFYING ANNIVERSARY LONDON SHOW FROM THE SWEDISH METAL MASTERS

Formed in Sweden in 1991 by Anders Nyström & Jonas Renkse, Katatonia stand at the forefront of the dark progressive rock genre. Their debut album, Dance of December Souls , was released in 1993, gaining the band recognition for their eclectic brand of gothic doom/death metal and joining acts such as Paradise Lost and My Dying Bride as one of the genre s defining bands. On future albums a newer, sleeker Katatonia sound came to the fore, and in 2016 released their most popular album to date, 'The Fall of Hearts', to chart and media success; reaching #1 in the USA Heatseekers and #5 in the USA Hard Rock charts, #2 in Sweden's Hard Rock chart, #3 in Canada's Hard Rock chart, #4 in the UK's Rock and Metal chart, #6 in Finland, #11 in Germany and saw success in Australia with their first ever chart entry.

'Last Fair Day Gone Night' features the Swedish dark rock/metal masters at their glorious best with this electrifying set from London s esteemed Koko venue, capturing the full performance on DVD and with an accompanying CD featuring the first of the two sets from the evening.

Recorded during a series of special celebratory shows to mark the band s 20th anniversary during 2011's Last Fair Day Gone Night tour, founding members Anders Nyström & Jonas Renkse are joined by drummer Daniel Liljekvist, plus guitarist Per Eriksson and bassist Niklas Sandin, for an exhilarating evening fuelled by a rich & extensive set of Katatonia tracks both past & present. Also includes a special 10th-anniversary performance of the landmark 2001 album 'Last Fair Deal Gone Down in its entirety. Sleeve artwork comes courtesy of long-time collaborator Travis Smith.

This edition of 'Last Fair Day Gone Night' is presented in a 2-disc jewel case including a 20-page booklet.
