Revenant‘s long out of print Prophecies of a Dying World album is being reissued for the first time since its original release back in 1991.

Unfortunately, Prophecies of a Dying World is being reissued only on vinyl by vinyl only label Cosmic Key Creations. Of course as an album well over 50 minutes made in the nineties, Revenant’s debut was originally intended for the CD format; the LP version dropped two tracks to cut down the run time to forty-five minutes. This reissue is strictly for hipster poseurs: if you were old enough to be of record-buying age in the era when vinyl was a major format and lacked a CD player back then, you would have owned the original LP. Hopefully a proper CD reissue will follow this double LP one so that younger Hessians can own a physical copy without shelling out for a CD rip pressed to vinyl. Nobody of any intelligence who values their money should buy this.
