Limited to 200 units worldwide - black matte cardboard box flooded black inside with band logo and title hot foil stamped on the lid, and SR emblem hot foil stamped on the bottom. Cassettes inside come in clear cases with full-color j-cards, metallic ink shell prints, and download cards.

“Backwater & Obsidian Katabasis” is an exclusive limited edition casette tape boxset in only 200 units of Fuoco Fatuos’s two most recent full-length albums: 2017's "Backwater" and the recent 2021 third album "Obsidian Katabasis", both issued by Profound Lore Records. With this exclusively crafted release both albums finally see the light for the first time ever on cassette format.

Italy’s Fuoco Fatuo are an elusive entity in European extreme metal, creators of an aphotic and otherworldly strain of hallucinatory and ultra-suffocating funeral doom that has few equals around. Over the last few years both of these pachydermic albums have set a new standard of extremism and opened the gates to a completely unexplored realm of heaviness and sonic oppression that has established Fuoco Fatuo as one of the most cataclysmic and inhumanly crushing bands to have emerged in the European extreme metal underground in recent years.

Digital download included with the purchase of physical copies.
