Laibach is releasing two limited edition albums
by The Organising Committee on Nov.28, 2009, under Articles
In honour of the 30th anniversary of the existence and work of Laibach, the group has decided to release two very special limited edition albums in CD and vinyl versions.
The LAIBACH REVISITED double album will include a complete version of the first classic Laibach album (LAIBACH, 1985), re-mastered from the original tapes with additional tracks included on the disc one. The second disc will present newly arranged and recorded versions of selected songs from the period 1980 – 1986, including Brat moj (Brother of Mine), Država (The State), Mi kujemo bodočnost (We Are Forging the Future), Krvava gruda – plodna zemlja (Bloody Ground – Fertile Soil), and others. This album is due to be released in May 2010.
The VOLKSWAGNER double album will present a unique Laibachian interpretation of Richard Wagner’s music. Disc 1 will present a studio version of recorded and mixed material created in collaboration between Laibach, the RTV Slovenia Symphony Orchestra, and Izidor Leitinger. Disc 2 will present a selection of tracks recorded from live performances of the VOLKSWAGNER suite. This album is scheduled for release in the second half of 2010.
Both albums will be produced as valuable collector’s items, equipped with richly designed booklets featuring exclusive photos, pictures, texts, essays, and information. The vinyl version will also feature a special poster. Precise descriptions of the albums and the exact release dates will be announced closer to the release date.

I’d like to agree with mr. Rick – especially about Vhutemas Archetypi. However, as re-realease I’d like to see Kapital, but in casette and LP version (maybe even some live?).
Best wishes for 30th year,
M.R.O.

Good Evening,
I’d like to agree with Mateusz in case of a re- release of KAPITAL. because it’ one of my most beloved Laibach-Albums! And – yes, the idea of a release of the vinyl- and casette- versions on CD is really great!! I further dream of a 30th anniversery live celebration with the classic line-up of the “vier personen” Milan, Ivan, Dejan, Erwin, together with the beautiful Nicolai on Bass and certainly Eva and Natasha – I suggest as an adaequate venue the “Alte Oper” in Frankfurt!

I have known only two artists or groups honest and consistent in the history of music of the late XX and XXI. They are Laibach and Diamanda Galás. I hope some day come to Latin America, here we value your work of art. Dear Laibach , respect and admiration from Medellin in Colombia. All our love

Dear Laibach fans,Kapital-their biggest master piece,by me, definitely deserves a high quality vinyl print.It will be a legacy for the upcoming generations…
