"Heresiarch" promises to buil...

PRE-ORDERS: Ov Shadows - I Djävulens Avbild

Posted by Nick Skog on Saturday, July 18, 2020, In : Ov Shadows 
We are launching pre-orders for Ov Shadows' second full-length album "I Djävulens Avbild" today!

This time around, we opted for less items in the bundles but improved the quality of the main items included. The CD is presented as a 4 panel digipack with an 8 page booklet, complete with 4/4 print (no unprinted sections between the panels) and 18pt cardboard stock rather than the standard 15pt, so the digipack itself should be sturdier and thicker. The official shirt for "I Djävulens Avbild" h...
