Black double vinyl in gatefold cover with insert and 4 bonus tracks.

Background information about 'Sol Veritas Lux'

What a phenomenal journey through the darkly poetic landscapes that Sol Invictus has crafted with their latest masterwork! "Sol Veritas Lux" stands as a towering achievement in the neofolk realm, weaving together two distinct yet complementary albums that showcase the band's evolution over decades of musical exploration. The first disc, "Against The Modern World", delivers a scathing critique of contemporary society wrapped in haunting melodies and Tony Wakeford's signature apocalyptic vision. Tracks like "Angels Fall" and the title piece resonate with urgent intensity, while "A Ship Is Burning" creates an atmosphere so thick you could cut it with a ceremonial blade.

The second album, "In The Jaws Of The Serpent", ventures into even darker territories, exploring themes of decay and transformation with tracks like "TWA Corbies" and "Abattoirs Of Love" that will send shivers down your spine. The inclusion of alternative versions on the first disc adds fascinating depth, showing how these compositions have evolved in the band's live performances. This double vinyl presentation does justice to the epic scope of the material, allowing each nuance and atmospheric detail to breathe properly.
