Release Notes:
Where to begin with this release...
Thanks to hXc for releasing Amenra-Mass_III-II_And_IIII-2CD-Remastered-2009-hXc
and Amenra-Sermons-CDM-2005-hXc.
Our release contains tracks (2 + 5) not included in theirs though.
This re-issue is remastered too.
Originally released in 2004 as vinyl-only, then released as CD-R in 2005.
Re-released as a Limited Edition of 500 by Hypertension Records in 2008.
Unfortunately the titles of track 1 and 3 are mixed up on the back of the
Digipak case.
I have verified that with the lyrics in the booklet as well as on
http://www.churchofra.com/
Also "Mass III" CD contains the correct "From Birth To Grave, From Shadow To
Light" as bonus track.
CD sleeve says:
Track 1: Offerande
Track 3: From Birth To Grave, From Shadow To Light
You can hardly read the tracklist on the back because all artwork and text is
black on black. Pure Darkness, yeah.
Track 5 is a re-recorded and expanded version of track 4 hence the title.

"AMENRA "Mass II" CD OUT NOW
Hypertension is proud to announce that we are currently finishing the pressing
for AMENRA's most sought after release, 'Mass II'. This record was only
available at their shows a couple of years ago, but due to popular demand, the
band and us decided to do an official release of this masterpiece. However,
there will be only one pressing, limited to 500 copies. As always you can expect
superb artwork, fit in a deluxe digipack. 'Mass II' is only available via our
webstore, the band directly and through a select number of distro's."
