Alunah to Reissue Call of Avernus on PRC Music and Cosmic Tomb Records

With an apparent swath of labels waiting to work with them and as they get ready to record their third album and debut for Napalm Records, UK doomers Alunah have announced a reissue of their 2010 Call of Avernus debut (review here) through Canada’s PRC Music. You might recall the label is also behind the upcoming Ice Dragon CD reissues which are due next month, and with Call of Avernus, they’ll join Cosmic Tomb Records, who are handling a tape version of the release. No word on whether they’ll both have the same updated artwork or if the tape will use the original or what, but in a couple weeks, Alunah will be hitting the studio for the aforementioned third outing — and they’ve also got UK dates coming up, which you can see in the poster below — so they’re plenty busy one way or another.

Which seems to be how it goes for the four-piece. Here’s what the PR wire brought forth:

Call of Avernus Gets a Re-Release and New Artwork…

We released our debut CD album “Call of Avernus” back in 2010 on Catacomb Records. It has since sold out, and we have been approached by various labels regarding getting it re-released. Until now we have declined for various reasons. Canadian label and massive doom heads PRC Music Worldwide contacted us, and after lengthy talks felt that they would do the album justice. Currently the deal is for a CD release, but it may also be making it’s way onto vinyl. The release date is still to be agreed. Don’t forget, it is also being released on tape cassette by Cosmic Tomb. We will have copies for sale online, and on our upcoming May tour.

“We are completely ecstatic to announce our collaboration with one of the best UK doom metal band ALUNAH! This awesome band is now signed to NAPALM RECORDS but [we] will be re-issuing their jaw-dropping debut full length “Call of Avernus” through PRC MUSIC worldwide. Sophie (Guitar/Vocals/Front Goddess!) is redesigning the whole package for this essential reissue. I have been a fan of doom metal ever since I have discovered Black Sabbath in 1978… fast forward 36 years later, it’s an honour to be working with such a great band, ALUNAH being one of my favourite bands for the last few years! I want to thank Sophie for the opportunity and for believing in us for that mandatory re-issue! ALUNAH is addictive, be warned! If you are a die hard fanatic of CATHEDRAL and WITCH MOUNTAIN, do yourself a favor and check the band on Facebook and bandcamp” – Rémi Coté, PRC Label Owner
