Collector's Edition in 6-panel Digipack, limited to 500 copies. The first edition of the Astral Spectre debut CD includes a bonus CD with the project's 2021 demo "The Oath is Broken" incl. the fantastic new song "Running for the dawn" as bonus track.

Astral Spectre was founded in 2020 by Tenebros as a solo project. It is a blend of harsh 1st wave Black Metal vocals and guitar riffs that evoke the unique feeling of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal. Inspired by classic rock of the 70s, a hammond organ is also included into the soundscape.

The first three songs were written and recorded during 2020, while the mixing and mastering was done in 2021, leading to the release of the demo „The Oath is Broken“ on two limited runs of self produced cassette tapes.

About one year later, in the first half of 2022, the debut album „Phantom Nightmare“ was finished. Including a guest performance and co-songwriter credits of Befana with clarinet and flute.

The album has also been released as a self produced tape and marks the beginning of the cooperation of Astral Spectre and Northern Silence Productions, who will release it first on CD (Sep 9th, 2022) and in 2023 on LP. At the same time the demo will be released in a separate CD edition for the first time, incl. the new track "Running for the Dawn" as bonus.
