****



Part 1: New experimental material «Falcon Among The Cliffs», represented by 4 excellent tracks in the sonic
shape of conceptual  mystical trance mix of folk music, pagan metal, ritual music and other noise with use of the
whole armada of ethnic Carpathian instruments. Material is perfectly realized sound-wise, it represents a new
era in a circle of KRODA existence.

Part 2: The old historical creations of the band completely re-recorded by a new "live" KRODA line-up.
Excellent studio quality of record and renewed arrangements inhale a new life in these songs that are
well-known by the previous albums. This part includes also an Ukrainian language cover version of
 «Der Scharlachrote Tod», the Ukrainian traditional song «Oj Na Gori…» and
SOKYRA PERUNA «Wind of Change», recorded by the band in different periods earlier …

Originally, we recorded these things for tributes to that cult Pagan Metal hordes, but due to the fact they
were not included in our other releases and tributes
we published that tracks on this CD!


Disc 2 (DVD):

Part 1: Well engineered video of Live In Lemberg gig. Against the fact that we did not use any professional
equipment  during the filming, a professional mastering led to an excellent result! What was made is a 1 hour of
concert live video with a great sound that will be interesting not only to those who never seen KRODA live, but also
to those who was at our gigs!

Part 2: Some kind of a documentary movie including the picturesque filming of the Ukrainian Carpathians nature,
several video-interviews, rehearsals, fragments of different KRODA gigs. The complete material is professional mastered,
includes english subtitles and a typical KRODA style menue!

Part 3: The gallery includes more than 200 wallpapers for the desktop with photos of the nature / artwork
well known by the Kroda releases. Also, this part includes a software program created by our friends exclusively
for this anniversary release.  After being installed, the program itself changes wallpapers on a desktop
with a time interval set by the user (installer & deinstaller) in authentic KRODA style and soundtrack....





Three versions are available, the 2 disc jewelcase version, a ltd. handfolded / handprinted A5 digipak out of black cardboard
and a small edition of wooden boxes! Once again, the artwork is done by master Viterzgir - expect a great 16 page booklet
with metallic / golden details! Brilliant!
