Swedish master of melancholy, Katatonia, has announced a four-disc CD/DVD set, Last Fair Day Gone Night, to be released September 30 on Peaceville. Last Fair Day Gone Night showcases the dark rock/metal band at its glorious best, complete with an electrifying set from London’s esteemed Koko venue, with the band’s captivating performance captured on DVD with accompanying double audio disc of the whole concert. A fourth disc also includes a full and extensive (136 minutes) documentary charting the early days and the band’s subsequent rise, as told in the words of band masterminds Jonas Renkse and Anders Nyström.

Recorded during a series of special celebratory shows to mark the band’s 20th anniversary during 2011’s ‘Last Fair Day Gone Night’ tour, founding members Anders Nyström and Jonas Renkse are joined by drummer Daniel Liljekvist, plus guitarist Per Eriksson and bassist Niklas Sandin, for an exhilarating evening fuelled by a rich and extensive set of Katatonia tracks both past and present. This also includes a special 10th anniversary performance of the landmark 2001 album Last Fair Deal Gone Down in its entirety.
