In January of 2009, Frozen Veins Records released this Vision Éternel poster to accompany the compact disc compilation "An Anthology Of Past Misfortunes". The CD was limited to 100 copies and so was the poster. Everyone who pre-ordered the compact disc in January and early February received the poster for free. Everyone ordering the compilation subsequently could get the poster for an additional $1. The poster was in greyscale and sized at 8.5 x 11.

about

"An Anthology Of Past Misfortunes" is Japanese pro-CD-R compilation of the first two Vision Éternel EPs; "Seul Dans L'obsession" (originally released on February 14th of 2007 through Mortification Records) and "Un Automne En Solitude" (originally released on March 14th of 2008 through Mortification Records). The compilation also includes three previously unreleased b-sides; two are from from the "Seul Dans L'obsession" recording session and one is from the "Un Automne En Solitude" recording session. The compilation was deliberately released exactly two years to the day that the first EP was released.

"An Anthology Of Past Misfortunes" was limited to a single pressing of one hundred copies. One hundred posters were also printed and given out for free to all the customers who pre-ordered the compilation in January and early February of 2009. Following the release of the compilation, the remaining posters were sold for $1 and bundled with orders of the CD.

Vision Eternel recommends:

the echo & the light
by cstvt

Castevet (aka CSTVT) has been a big influence for Vision Eternel. In fact, we chose our mastering engineer (Carl Saff) because he worked with them. "The Echo & the Light" is such a wonderful album! Vision Eternel

White Light from the Mouth of Infinity
by SWANS

Swans is another huge influence for Vision Eternel. Their music has often been played on repeat for days. The song "Why Are We Alive" from this album is what I'd like played at my funeral. Vision Eternel

Aurora - Morgen Rothe Im Auffgang
by Black Autumn

Black Autumn is an atmospheric black metal band that I've been a huge fan of since 2008. "Aurora" is their masterpiece and probably indirectly influenced the way that I write music for Vision Eternel. Vision Eternel
