Several Infos / Need to know :

Therion aus Schweden sind Einzigartig und gehören mit Sicherheit zu den einflussreichsten Metal Bands dieses Planeten.

Bereits seit Anfang der Neunziger Jahre treiben die „Masters of Symphonic Opera Metal“ ihr Unwesen. Mit “Celebrators Of Becoming” veröffentlichen Therion das wahrscheinlich bisher detailierteste und umfangreichste Boxset in der Geschichte des Heavy Metal!

Auf ganzen 4 DVDs und 2 Audio CDs wird die gesamte Band Geschichte anhand von Live Material (u.a. Südamerika, Europa und seltene historische Aufnahmen), Video Clips und vielem mehr nachgezeichnet. Dabei bringen es die DVDs auf eine Laufzeit von insgesamt über 10 Stunden, die Audio CDs auf über 2 Stunden! “Celebrators Of Becoming” definiert den Begriff „Gigantisch“ wahrlich neu!
