November 2006 will see the release of EMPYRIUM"s new album "A Retrospective...". As the title suggests, this is a look back on the work of Ulf Theodor Schwadorf's unique band. Apart from newly mastered songs from EMPYRIUM's four studio albums, "A Retrospective..." contains a newly recorded and newly arranged version of "The Franconian Woods In Winter's Silence" (off "A Wintersunset...") as well as two new tracks. The extensive booklet contains a profound biography to unravel the history of the band and all its influences music- and content-wise, and will make transparent the whole artistic aspect of EMPYRIUM and its changes in the course of years.
