The Book Of Fire shot to #1 in the official German album charts in January 2020, indisputably raising Mono Inc. To the Olympus of the Black Scene. This complex concept album by the Hamburg dark rock quartet immediately delighted both the fans and press. The stirring videos that vividly, tangibly tell the story of the healer Aellin will undoubtedly have contributed to this. Now Mono Inc. #choose to go one further: On December 10th, 2021, they will release The Book Of Fire (Platinum Edition), which has two more exciting additions to this great album. Firstly, as part of their successful "We Are The Raven Open Airs", comes a live recording of that concert played in the summer of 2021 at the beautiful moated castle Klaffenbach near Chemnitz. Eleven beautifully crafted pieces of jewellry have been immortalised on CD bringing a real festival feel to CD 2 of this high-quality digipak. A golden opportunity to reminisce while watching the phenomenal duet "Right For The Devil" featuring "Storm Seeker" in the comfort of your own castle. As if that wasn't enough, mastermind and multi-instrumentalist Martin Engler recorded all the songs from "The Book Of Fire" in soulful piano versions during an intimate session in the electrifying ambience of an unnamed church in northern Germany. Experience this unique atmosphere at home on CD 3 of the Platinum Edition - just the thing for cozy winter evenings in front of the fireplace.
