limited Digipak Edition of the groundbreaking Album from this cult Band... A return to the golden age of Metal, when genre borders get broken

In 1995, the Dutch band THE GATHERING released their third album "Mandylion", which was to set the course for the further development of the band. The band wanted to break out of the previous death metal universe and from then on consciously do without growls. In the meantime, the band was even on the verge of breaking up, before the exceptional singer Anneke van Giersbergen and The Gathering found each other and embarked on a new path that had been successful for many years. Drummer and mastermind Hans Rutten comments on this decision as follows:

When a woman is ready to sing in a band, she usually means it more seriously than the many run-of-the-mill guys who think bleating into a microphone will make them frontmen.

Under the wing of producer Waldemar Sorychta (Samael, Tiamat, Moonspell), "Mandylion" is a milestone in metal history. Anno 2023, this album will be re-released by MDD in a limited DigiPak edition, with a design that was only created for this version.
