100 copies.
"Late summer 2009. Two black shadows and a slew of obscureness. A mysterious tape is circulating, and a copy ends up in the fabulous Nattens Bödlar mansion. Lust For Youth. Some correspondence, and then an agreement. Sickness, 6 new tracks from Lust For Youth, was given to the label. To judge by the sound, the master had probably been buried 5 feets down in the ground for at least a few months. Most likely longer, just for the sake of it. Haven't heard anything this murky since... well, that first demo? Taking a more cold wave-ish direction, this hits hard with direct melodies and a weird, fucked up melancholic feeling. Tracks like 'Embrace A Dream' and 'I Got Nothing' are simply instant classics. Romantic music, in the sense of digging up a rotten corpse and making love to it like there is no tomorrow. Cascades of filth, cascades of shit. What's next, Gothenburg? 30 minutes." - Nattens Bödlar about the Lust For Youths Sickness tape.
"Founded as a duo by T. Graves and Reyna Kay in September 2008, Blessure Grave blurs the lines between the Goth, Post Punk and Neo Folk genres. The pair has since developed the project into a full band while building a cult-like following, scattering various vinyl and tape releases on boutique labels around the globe. Citing Killing Joke, Death in June, March Violets and The Cure as influences, Blessure Grave injects a pop sensibility into songs otherwise doomed to dreariness, creating an interesting mix of old and new but dark all around. The music initially appears rather simple, but quickly reveals the fact that the songs are fully fleshed-out and genuinely memorable. Perhaps what is misleading at first is that the recordings sound as though they were created in some kult black metal band’s dungeon for maximum fog-at-dusk fidelity." - Alien 8 Recordings about Blessure Grave
